INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

Chapter 109: Chapter 109 - Hooded Strangers

'What the F*ck?'

I glance at the system stats as I utter the words.

Why?

Because the whole thing looked very ordinary from my viewpoint.

When I say ordinary, I mean for leveling up—not the overall stats. The stats were exceptionally high for someone at my level.

But my problem is, why did my stats get upgraded or boosted so poorly? Except for HP, Mana Capacity, and Mana Regeneration, why did all the other stats receive such a meager boost?

I didn't understand why this had happened and I didn't even have Anne to make it simple for me either.

(Anne is the system that has been shut down for an indefinite period)

'Well, I'll decipher this later. For now, I need a lot of food. My stomach is growling like a ravenous beast.'

I descend the stairs and open the refrigerator, expecting to find some food, but there is none. Then I remember, "I didn't buy any food, so why would there be any?"

Reflecting on this, I was seriously about to lament about my foolishness, but then I suddenly recalled something and queried the house's AI system.

"Arthur, is there any kind of service here that delivers food to houses?"

[ Of course, sir. There is. There's Mamma Mia's Pizza, The Burger Boyz, Peanut My Donut, and many more ]

[ Sir, do you want me to order some food for you? ]

I dismiss the peculiar names and nod multiple times to the house's AI system.

"Yes, call the pizza place and order two." I was telling Arthur when I felt something scratch my butt. I looked to see it was Clawdia, who was looking at me with imploring eyes as she said to me, 'Master, Clawdia is hungry too.'

'How are you even hungry after eating so many things a while ago?' I think incredulously but don't say any of that to her.

"Arthur, don't order two… order six, seven… eight. Order eight pizzas and make sure they add extra cheese on them." I say to the AI Arthur as I see Clawdia trying to up the numbers.

[ Of course, sir. Please wait a while for the delivery ]

{ 1 Hour Later }

Right now, on the dining table, there were eight large plates. The plates were supposed to be holding the pizzas, but there were none. Beside them were two beings, one human and one enormous cat, who were slouching on the couch after having a grand feast.

The pizzas were great. Much better than in my previous world, and they didn't cost too much, so it was a satisfying and cost-effective meal as well.

Clawdia and I consumed all of it… mostly Clawdia as she kept devouring them like there was no end.

Well, then it's time to take another small nap, and then I will be ready for… whatever I need to do.

As I closed my eyes and tried to drift off to dreamland, my attempt was interrupted by a phone call. Looking at the number, I see that it is unknown, so I was about to disconnect it but stopped myself as I remembered something.

So I answered the call and said immediately without actually knowing who it was, "Well then, are you here?"

"Yeah, I'm here." A heavy and menacing voice could be heard from the phone.

"So are you sure about working with me or not?"

"I already told you that I am willing to work with you, so why are you wasting my time, kid?" The heavy voice on the phone said irritably.

"Just making sure. Don't want you regretting it later on."

"I don't regret anything, kid. It's you who might regret working with me later on." The heavy voice said to me arrogantly.

"We'll see about that… Hey, how am I going to recognize you?"

"Don't worry about that, I'm sure when you see me you'll know exactly who I am."

"Okay, so where are you right now?"

"I'm in the…." And like that, the conversation continued as the enormous cat woke up, hearing that I was about to go somewhere, and started pestering me about it.

[ 3rd POV ]

[ At the vicinity of the train station in the Wiseburn Kingdom ]

Right outside the main entrance of the station stood someone who looked very intimidating and dangerous by the sheer amount of muscle that was forced to show through his clothes.

This man was Delmar. Yes, the same Delmar who is one of the most wanted people branded by the Tudor Kingdom.

His attire at the moment consisted of a blue hula hula t-shirt made for the beach and short pants that couldn't hide more than his knees, as they were very short but comfortable to wear.

He was wearing these simple clothes so that even though he may look very peculiar, it would still make him the least suspicious… but it was actually having the opposite effect.

There was something different about him. He wore the colored sunglasses that he always wore and smoked the same brand of cigar that he always smoked, but where he was supposed to have a huge beard on his face, there was none.

This was the simple attire the dangerous man chose to avoid getting caught by anyone, and even though it brought most of the attention to him, it did not make anyone even a little suspicious that he was the one who had been branded the most wanted only some time ago.

Delmar had fooled everyone, but he could not fool the person beside him.

"Dude, are you trying to get yourself caught?" A voice suddenly spoke from the side.

Delmar heard it and clearly knew what it meant as he tried to deny it without looking at the person so he could quickly get away.

"I think you have the wrong person."

"No, I'm really sure that you're the bald man that I am looking for."

Delmar realized that he was caught even though he dressed so cleverly.

He tried to deny it again, but this time he tried to look back at whoever it was and made sure to quickly take care of whoever it was, even if it meant he had to get violent.

"As I said, you got the wrong perso—" Delmar tried to say, but he had to shut himself off as he finally saw the person who talked.

He looked to see a hooded person talking to him with their face covered. But there was a disparity among them.

One person was clearly a human or tried to act like a human, which he couldn't discern as their figure was covered by a long robe.

The second one wasn't a person; it was clearly a beast. It stood on all fours while casually standing there. Delmar couldn't recognize what kind it was as it was also hidden under a big sandy robe.

Delmar wanted to take care of both of them as quickly as he wanted to, but the beast looked at him through a slight gap in the robe with a menacing glare.

The amount of pressure the beast exerted told Delmar that the beast in front of him was stronger than him.

"How are you, Mr. Daniel Docks?"
