My King System

After Yuki made the entire stop go quiet after what he had done to the man who tried to assault him, he turned his head back to the cashier which was frozen in place herself. However, once Yuki turned around to face her, she snapped back into reality and began to make the order Yuki had requested. While Yuki was just defending himself, he had gone overboard and made it look like he would kill anyone else who got on his bad side. 

"Well, there goes my reputation," Yuki said to himself as he sighed. It hadn\'t even been a whole month and he had made himself an outcast. 

​​

"H-here you go," said the woman as she began to stack all of the coffee cups for Yuki along with the separate order he made for himself. Seeing that his order was complete, Yuki opened his inventory to place all the drinks and food he ordered. 

[Open inventory]

As Yuki placed all the objects into his inventory, he couldn\'t help but think how handy the inventory system was. Not only did it carry as many objects he needed but it also accepted objects which weren\'t received from monsters or dungeons but it also accepted any random object. Even a stick could be placed in it. It acted like a backpack with infinite storage. 

Once Yuki finished placing all of his things in his inventory, he began to walk out of the store. As he did so, the people inside which were blocking his way towards the door moved away as if they were getting parted like the sea. 

"I just hope that I don\'t have to deal with this type of exclusion next time. I already know this thing isn\'t going to blow over. I guess I\'ll just have to live my life as an outcast again. Not that this is new or upsetting. I already have a job and at night, I can go dungeon raiding so I don\'t care what these people think of me," Yuki said to himself as he walked towards the construction site. 

As Yuki approached the construction site with a frown on his face, Avila seemed to be laughing for some reason. Yuki was too tired to deal with her nonsense as well but he needed to act like he did so that his coworkers wouldn\'t think that there was something wrong with him. Once he approached Avila, who was in a huddle with the other workers including Garth, he asked her the question which she had hoped he would ask.

"What\'s so funny?" Yuki said with an exhausted voice.

"H-how did your coffee shopping go?" said Avila as everyone including herself broke into laughter. 

"Did all the customers jump on you as they beat you up?" Avila said as he laughed even harder and louder. 

"So you knew what would happen and still sent me there?" Yuki said in an irritated tone. 

"I almost-" Yuki said before stopping himself from saying "I almost killed someone".

"You almost what? You almost cried?" Avila continued to mock Yuki. 

"I don\'t have the energy to deal with you," said Yuki as he opened his inventory and handed everyone their cups of coffee. Of course, Yuki glared at Avila with eyes of death as he handed her her coffee. 

Lastly, Yuki sat on the rubble as he took a cup of coffee out of his inventory for himself. 

"What do you think you\'re doing?" said Avila as she slapped the cup of coffee Yuki was holding onto the ground. 

"Didn\'t I tell you that the coffee was only for the rest of us. How dare you use my money for something which I didn\'t ask you for?" said Avila as she yelled at Yuki. 

Everyone just watched as this took place. Avila seemed to be very angry while not realizing the simple fact that Yuki had used his own money for his own meal. If she had even taken the slightest bit of time to do some basic math, she would\'ve realized that Yuki had spent her money just as she had intended since all of the coffee she wanted was accounted for and there was no extra for Yuki to do anything. That would lead to the simple conclusion that Yuki had spent his money instead of hers. 

All while Avila yelled at him, Yuki couldn\'t help but fill up in rage as he grew tired of her annoying attitude. 

"Zero, make me have the strength and speed of a level 10 player," said Yuki telepathically. 

"Got it," Zero replied. 

"One, take over for a second and add presence to my right fist," said Yuki under his breath. 

"Sure," One replied.

Before Avila could even realize what happened, a fist was right in front of her face as Yuki quickly landed a direct punch to the face which was both equipped with the strength of a level 10 player plus One\'s presence. However, Yuki wasn\'t done there. Before Avila could hit the ground, he once again punched her but this time, Yuki\'s first landed on her chest on the exact point where her heart was located which caused One\'s presence to make contact with her heart, in turn shocking it and making Avila have a miniature heart attack. 

As Avila lay on the ground paralyzed from the shock, Yuki looked down on her as he gave her a look of disappointment. 

"Learn your place," said Yuki. 

Seeing what had just happened, Garth along with some of the other workers began to run as fast as they could to Avila\'s rescue. 

"What happened? Why did you do that?" Garth asked in a worried tone. 

"Look, I tried my best to deal with her. I really did. No matter how she talked to me, I always did as she told me. Even when she told me to buy everyone except myself coffee, I listened and paid for my meal with MY money. But even so, she knocked away my drink for no reason. I didn\'t even do anything wrong," said Yuki in frustration. 

"I understand that but violence is never the answer. You can\'t go around hitting people," Garth said with resentment in his eyes.

"But if she was the one to hit me, it would\'ve been okay though. Why do you treat her so well even though she acts horribly? It\'s clear that she doesn\'t know how to cooperate with people and has a superiority complex. So why, why do you treat her better than everyone else," Yuki asked with anger in his voice. 

"That\'s enough," said one of the other workers in a gentle voice as he held his palm on Yuki\'s shoulder as he began to lead Yuki elsewhere. 

Even though Yuki was still angry, he listened and began to follow the worker as he knew he needed to take a deep breath and calm himself down.

"So what did you bring me over here?" said Yuki as he and the worker sat down on a pile of rubble far from Garth and Avila. 

"You see, there\'s a reason why Avila gets special treatment. Of course, all of us think that she\'s a bit too much to handle which is why we don\'t get in her way and agree with her all the time. The boss hired her because she\'s his niece. You might believe it to be blatant nepotism but you have no choice but to accept it. It\'s just the way things are around here. The truth is, he\'s the boss and we have to accept whatever he wants. There are no laws controlling favoritism so if you want to get a paycheck, just keep your mouth shut and just do your job. That\'s what we do and we manage to stay alive here. How about this, you go and apologize, even if it\'s fake and I\'ll show you something cool when our shift is done," the worker said.

"Sounds like a plan," said Yuki. 

"By the way, what\'s your name?" Yuki asked, 

"I\'m Elmer, what about you?" Elmer asked. 

"I go by Yuki. I look forward to what you have instored for me," said Yuki as he began to walk back towards Avila and Garth. 

Avila had managed to get back up and looked both embarrassed and angry. Just as she saw Yuki walk towards her, she rushed to him and punched him to get revenge. Once the attack landed, Yuki looked to be even more enraged but once he looked at Elmer, he managed to calm himself down. 

"I\'m sorry for attacking you. It was out of line and I should\'ve explained that I had bought the coffee with my own money. I hope you can forgive me," said Yuki and he tried to make it look like it was a sincere apology. 

"Ya whatever. I forgive you. I\'m sorry too," Avila replied, which caught everyone off guard. It was the first time she had apologized for anything. 

Even as far-fetched as it sounded, most of the workers thought that Yuki might\'ve hit Avila hard enough to give her manners. 

As Avila walked off, Yuki was left standing confused wondering if he won or lost the altercation.
