Chapter 53 Getting An OP Item
That same night, Theo just finished taking a shower and he was laying on top of his bed when he said in his mind.
'System, show me the earlier notifications.'
As soon as he finished playing the piano at the party, the system sent a bunch of notifications. But he ignored them because he would rather enjoy his sister's birthday party.
[Ding! Congratulations! You completed the mission:
'It is time to shine'

[Ding! Mission Completed.

[You received 2000 exp]
[You received Advanced Singer Skill]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have leveled up from Level 6 to Level 7]
[You received 4 Free Attribute Points and 1 Lucky Draw Ticket]
Theo was flabbergasted when he saw the notifications.
'I received double rewards!' Theo said with excitement.
'It was totally worth it practicing these weeks. But I thought I would only receive an S Grade at best. It was probably the way I played. I played the best I could and with that, the grade increased to S+.'
'I guess that's why the rewards doubled.'
'1 million dollars! That is going to replenish my dried bank account.'
'An Advanced Singer Skill! This is much better than the Intermediate Skill.'
'And I even leveled up!'
'System, assign 4 points to Intelligence.'
The same process that Theo was familiar with happened.
After a while, he said in his mind.
'System, show my status'

'Hmm, my status didn't change much.'
'Only the addition of 2 skills and the increase of the Intelligence Stat.'
Theo thought as he looked at his status.
'System, spin the Lucky Draw for me.' Theo said with enthusiasm.
He always got some useful stuff from the Lucky Draw.
It seemed that he was lucky in this life.
[Opening Lucky Draw Roulette…]
Theo saw the roulette spinning.
Around 1 minute later, it stopped spinning.
[Ding! Congratulations! You received the House Retrieve Card]
'What's that?' Theo asked for the description of the item.
[House Retrieve Card: Select a building land, project, and design the house of your dreams. Press the card and in 10 days, the house will be ready as designed by the host.]
'OH MY GOD' Theo shouted.
'This is so OP' Theo was in disbelief.
Theo could project a house worth billions and sell and be a billionaire.
But he guessed the system wouldn't permit that, as it said it had to be the house of my dreams.
But the house still will be worth some millions of dollars.
'Well, I could build and pay with my money. But that would take time as my companies still are at the development stage and I cannot take too much money from them to build a millionaire house.'
'Adding the construction time of the house, it would take years for the house to be ready.'
'But now I can project and design it and 10 days later the house will be ready.' Theo had shining eyes of excitement.
'I will buy land in the outskirts of the city. I want my house to be connected to nature.'
'Maybe connected to a lake or a forest'
'But at the same time, the house must be close to the city. I don't want to take hours to go and come from my house every day.'
'I don't want the house to be too big. As it is only me and Aurora. It would a pain in the ass to clean. And I don't want to hire an army of cleaners.'
'I should ask Aurora what she would like to have in the house.'
'What if I put a gym for Aurora and me to practice...' Theo brainstormed multiple ideas for his dream house
Theo went to sleep that night thinking about houses.
The next day, Sunday.
The restaurant reopened today with full force.
The clients were avid to taste the delicious dishes and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
On this day a short middle-aged man entered the restaurant.
His name was Luis Pratt. He was shorter than most men, but he exuded confidence, nonetheless.
He was a food critic of the most important newspaper of Elffire City.
Elffire City was the capital of the state of BlueCorn. And consequently, it was one of the biggest cities in the country.
Being a food critic of such a big newspaper gave Luis great confidence.
Lately, he heard of a new restaurant that opened in town.
All the clients who went there left full of praises for the place.
Luis was curious and reserved a table.
Luis liked to pick the tiniest wrong details in the restaurant he visited.
He gave bad reviews for multiple restaurants in town, and he was hated by most chefs.
That's why he had the nickname 'Snake Tong'.
Because he only had poisoned words to say.
And even though he only gave bad reviews, he was popular with it. He was one of the most famous critics of the newspaper.
This night he arrived to look at 'The Spark' restaurant and give his bad review tomorrow at the newspaper.
But would he be able to do that?
