He whistled. "Stats like a god… finally lookin' rich on paper."

"Finally, a shopping quest I actually like."

Self-Upgrade Day

Morning sunlight spilled across the terrace. Agastya slipped on mirrored shades, climbed into his Skylark One jet, and headed for Delhi.The system had booked everything—no assistants, no calls, just a day to spend like royalty.

1️⃣ The Transformation Suite

At a luxury clinic in Gurugram, he underwent an exclusive Nanoflex Vital Treatment.Tiny golden nanobots rejuvenated his skin, boosted his stamina, and even corrected his eyesight.

[Host Body Optimization +22 %. Vitality +5 . Attractiveness +3.]

The mirror didn't show a courier anymore; it showed a man who could walk into a room full of billionaires and make them question their worth.

2️⃣ The Drive of Gods

Next stop—Automax Signature Lounge.A row of exotic cars glimmered under white light: Bugatti Chiron, Ferrari 812, Rolls Royce Spectre.

"System, suggestion?"

[Recommendation: Purchase vehicle symbolizing predatory dominance.]

He grinned. "Then the Chiron it is."

₹ 23 crore transferred.

When he drove out, the roar of the engine echoed like thunder through Delhi's heart. Phones lifted, cameras flashed—and headlines bloomed within minutes:"Shastri Arrives in Delhi with Car Costlier than a Politician's Dream."

Family First

That evening, he landed in Pune.His parents' modest bungalow still smelled of sandalwood and evening tea.His mother, Savita Shastri, froze when he stepped out in designer formals.

"Agastya? Baba re… look at you!"

His father, Vivek Shastri, ex-professor turned pensioner, adjusted his spectacles. "You've lost weight, gained arrogance, and brought this car to blind the neighbors."

Agastya laughed and handed him a key card. "It's yours, Baba. Rolls Royce Spectre in the driveway. And here—papers for a new bungalow. Oceanfront."

His mother's eyes welled. "You're joking, right?"

He kissed her forehead. "Ma, for years I watched you count coins before buying milk. From now on, count blessings."

[Family Affection +10 | Karma Alignment Improved.]

Face Slap #1 — The Neighbors

As expected, the neighborhood gathered like moths.Mr. Patankar, the man who'd once taunted him for delivering parcels, smirked. "All this renting, eh? Must be show money."

Agastya smiled, pulled out his phone, and opened a live news feed.

Breaking: "SwiftGo Acquires National Courier Chain 'ParcelNet' in ₹ 450 Crore Deal."

He turned the screen toward Patankar. "Show money, was it?"

The man's grin melted faster than butter on a pan.

[Reputation +4 | Satisfaction +30 | 'Face Slap Combo – Level 1' Unlocked.]

Aanya's Call

That night, Aanya video-called. Her face glowed under office light."Boss, you just tripled our valuation by acquiring ParcelNet. Also, every CEO in India is trying to contact you. And the media wants a quote."

"Tell them," Agastya said, "that money doesn't sleep — it just changes beds."

She groaned. "You and your quotes are going to trend again."

[Charm +1.]

The Whispers of the Syndicate

Meanwhile, in a private villa on the outskirts of Delhi, ten system users met around a crimson table.Each one's aura flickered with different colors — blue for tech, green for commerce, violet for espionage.

At the head sat a man wearing a half-mask."The Predator has absorbed two systems already," he said. "His wealth is multiplying at unnatural rates. If he isn't stopped, he'll tip the balance of the Indian Matrix."

Another member replied, "I propose the Karma Reversal Protocol. We send him a lesson in morality."

The masked man smiled. "Prepare the host — Delhi's most ruthless political broker. Let's see if money can buy fate itself."

Back in Mumbai

Agastya returned home to a balcony bathed in moonlight. The city below hummed with life he now owned a share of.He opened his system log.

[Daily Task Completed: Invest in Self Improvement.][Reward Received: Body Enhancement Potion (Advanced).][System Notice: Incoming Distortion Detected – Host's Karma Timeline Is Being Tampered With.]

He set the glass down slowly. "So they're already sending trouble."

[Affirmative. Threat Level: High. System Type Identified — "Karma Reversal System."]

Agastya smiled, eyes turning gold under the city lights."Karma and money in one game? Now this, I can't miss."
