Chapter 6 - System Notice

Sean was excited. With an additional $1,500, he had a total of $1,704. This was a huge amount of money, at least in his life, he had never accumulated this amount of money at once.

Sean took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Having already realized that this method was going to work, Sean decided not to waste any more time, as it was already approaching night time.

He had to complete this issue as fast as possible, as he did not want to worry his parents. So, he looked at the menu once again, slightly surprising the young waiter.

With Sean making the payment, the young waiter had anticipated that Sean wanted to leave. But it was quite a surprise to him that Sean was looking at the menu. Could it be that he wanted to look at the types of dishes offered, so that he could make another order for a takeaway, or maybe he wanted to come back the following day knowing what he wanted to eat?

Nonetheless, he did not say anything, simply watching Sean looking through the menu. A little while later, Sean made a decision.

He looked at the young waiter and said, "I want these two dishes. As he said those words, he pointed at the dishes that were the most expensive on the menu. At the same time, he could not help but be a little disappointed.

The total cost for the two dishes was only $1,360. If it had been a little more expensive, maybe costing about $1,700 he could have easily gotten an extra over $2000.

"Should it be served to your table, or should I prepare it for a takeaway?" The young waiter asked.

Sean was a little puzzled by the question. But when he thought about his actions, he realized the misunderstanding. So, he clarified, claiming that he wanted to taste this food first before leaving.

Of course, he had no intention of leaving the hotel. He only had the intention of leaving this floor. With the amount of money that he was going to spend, with the multiplier effect, he was going to have over $10,000. With that, he would definitely be capable of going to a private room of his own.

The waiter nodded before leaving. Sean had to wait for quite a while before the meal was delivered to his table.

A few people that had noticed Sean entering could not help but look at him once again. A few of them even exclaimed, wondering if they were seeing things.

Others thought that perhaps this young man was just wearing simply, but was wealthy. As for others, they thought that this young man was going to be in trouble later on when he failed to pay the bill.

Not caring about the glances that he was receiving around him, Sean immediately began eating the food that was delivered to him. And to say the truth, the price of the food actually matched the taste of the food.

Already possessing the basic chef skills, he could tell that he definitely did not have the capability of preparing such meals, at least not to the same level as the food that had been prepared.

The reason for the price of the food was simply because it was prepared by a high level chef of the hotel, and more than that, it was a signature meal of the hotel, at least for the first floor.

As he ate, Sean and enjoyed the taste of the food, not in much of a hurry anymore. If he went to the next floor, and spent the money on a high level food which was bound to be expensive, he could easily become a millionaire today.

Just thinking about it made him excited. Who could have ever thought that today, he had been working at a construction site. But later that same day, he became a millionaire?

This was something that was straight out of a fantasy or a science fiction movie. But it was real right now, and he was going to become a millionaire today. The only issue would be to explain to his parents about the money.

But of course, he did not really have to worry that much about this, as he did not really have to show his parents the money that he had at the moment. He could show the money slowly, allowing them to adapt to him having a lot of money.

A few minutes later, Sean completely wiped out the food on his table. After that, he asked the waiter for the bill, and made the payment. Immediately after the payment was completed, he received a prompt from the system.

[You have spent $1,360 on food. Investment detected. Rebate activated. You have received $13,600.]

Sean took a deep breath. While he had already been expecting something like this, it was just too overwhelming. After all, just looking at his current balance that was already at $13,944, it was almost impossible to believe.

The Information that was in his mind about the system, and the presence of the floating screen in front of him was the reason why he believed that this was not an illusion.

Sean immediately got up from his seat, ignoring the incredulous looks that he was receiving from the people around him, intending to head directly to the second floor. He wanted to become a millionaire as soon as possible.

But just as he thought about going to the next floor, he received a prompt from the system that made his expression change.

[Advance notice from the system. The host should not try to exploit the system. Unnecessary investment does not lead to a multiplication effect on the amount spent. As long as the investment does not bring any form of positive return, the system will not consider it as an investment.]

Sean was startled by the system prompt. What was the system trying to imply? Could it be that the system did not want him to exploit this chance? After all, if he exploited the system to the maximum possible, maybe he could even purchase this hotel directly.

As he began thinking about what the system had informed him, Sean began hesitating on heading to the next floor. While it was true that there was a possibility that he could get more money, what if he ended up spending the money, and not receiving anything in return?

Considering that there was a division between the first floor and the second floor, it was clear that the services offered on the second floor would be more expensive. If he ended up spending every penny that he had, and did not receive anything in return, that would be an incredible loss.

Just then, Sean thought about the information that he had received from the system about the system and its mechanisms. It seemed that the system only counted about the investments that would bring a profit or a positive return to him.

Right now, after eating, he was no longer hungry. If he ended up eating something else, could it be that since he was already satiated, he would not receive the cashback from the system?

That was a possibility. After all, the main role of eating the food was to satiate the hunger. But now that he was no longer hungry, the only effect that the food could bring to him was providing different types of nutrients to his body.

After thinking much about it, Sean decided not to head to the next floor for the moment. He currently had over $13,000, which was enough for him to be able to repay the debt that was owed to the loan sharks.

He could try something else the following day. So, Sean immediately thank the waiter who had solved him, and went to the elevator, before going back to the ground floor.

When he approached the exit of the hotel, the receptionist who had received him could not help but be a little startled. She asked, "Excuse me sir, could I please get your view on the service that you have received? Has there been anything that has made you unhappy?"

Sean immediately understood why she was asking him that question. Initially, he had planned to go all the way up, but it had only been about an hour since he went to the first floor. No matter what, if he was really planning on tasting different types of foods, it was impossible for him to come back this soon.

While it was true that tasting would not take a lot of time, the preparation will definitely take time. So, the receptionist was anticipating that he was going to spend quite a while in the hotel.

"Not at all, there is nothing that has disappointed me today. It is just that I have something that I need to take care of right now. But I will be back tomorrow to continue with the second floor. I have already tried different meals on the first floor." Sean responded with a smile.

While he was disappointed that he could not continue to exploit the system today, at least, he could use other methods to continue using the system to earn more. So, he was willing to come back the following day in order to try out the meals that could be found on the second floor.

The receptionist was relieved upon hearing his response. She smiled and said, "If that is the case, then you are welcomed to visit us at any moment. We are open 24/7."

Sean nodded in response, before finally walking out of the hotel, taking a taxi and heading straight home.
