Worldly Overlord

Chapter 22 - New Task



*Sin of Lust task assigned.

"Main task: cause a rift between Brooke and Jake (prevent the birth of a God)

Time frame: Three months.

Devon was still on the ground in the housing estate of the outer compound. His eyes were closed, and his hand was folded right across his chest, it seemed he had fallen asleep after that battle.

He yawned, as he rubbed his eyes with his hand. It was the voice message that woke him up.

"Another task, can\'t you give me a break at least." Devon brought out a blanket and a pillow from his storage ring placed the pillow below his head and covered himself with the blanket. He wasn\'t done sleeping.

"Contractor has been sleeping for three days straight."

"What the hell!" Devon leaped straight up from the ground and shouted at the voice. And what followed after was a series of questions.

But all he got was no response from the voice.

"Wait, show me my stats." a creepy smile appeared on Devon\'s face after he said those words.

"Hahahahahaha, you were right, I can get stronger by sleeping." Devon clapped his hands and jumped up. He was like a football fan whose team had just won the champion league. What could be better than this, imagine your power level increasing just by sleeping.

The power level was something some people spend decades trying to improve, but someone is getting his power level to increase just by sleeping. If words get out, this could cause a disaster.

"Hmm, hmm, what\'s the reward!" Devon\'s face turned serious, he knew it was time to get serious.

"I thought you wouldn\'t ask."

*Reward: 10,000 task points.

Knowing the voice very well, Devon knew this was a serious mission, or else the voice wouldn\'t have given him such a good reward. It wasn\'t something he could joke with at all.

"Voice is there something I should know about the two couples."

"That would be 100 task points."

"Chill dude, just basic information, I want to know what am getting myself into," Devon asked.

*5 task points deducted from contractor points

Devon was unbothered by what the voice did. He knew ten thousand task points were coming his way very soon. So there weren\'t any points in him getting mad at the voice.

Chief Rachel, the chief of the disciplinary hall of the main compound. She was one of the leaders who controlled the compound as he ruled with an iron fist. Rachel was a woman whose stand could represent the main compound, as she was powerful enough to represent it.

To her, a slave would always be a slave, it didn\'t even matter if he or she becomes a king or an emperor. Brooke\'s mother placed bloodline over anything else, cause even if the person gains a treasure that increased his strength could it possibly improve one\'s bloodline, and the answer to that was no.

"This is about Brooke\'s mother, not about the couples!" Devon scratched his head with his left hand as he wondered what the voice was thinking by telling him that information.

Brooke is the daughter of the disciplinary chief of the inner compound and also one of the elders in charge of low-tier members. Brooke didn\'t disappoint her mother when it came to power or the influence she had in the outer compound. It was when it came to her decision on whom she wanted to be with.

Jake was of low birth, to be precise he was once a slave of the all heaven alliance. It was so strange, as all of a sudden, he rose to prominence. Defeating geniuses of the alliance and becoming one of the three kings right after. Currently, he is one of the three kings of the inner compound, be it in talent or power level, he was top-notch.

He was also the previous king when he was in the outer compound and according to rumors, the same would happen when he gets into the main compound.

Brooke and Jake are the leading favorite couple of the inner compound. It wasn\'t too much of a surprise to the low and mid-rank members, as they always knew something was going on between the both of them. It was just too obvious, the only problem was Brooke\'s mother wasn\'t happy with it.

"I must say, I\'m impressed." Devon walked around the room with his hand right behind his back. It seemed like he was posing like some kind of expert.

"Voice, who do you think I should go for first?" Devon asked. One thing he learned from all the missions was once in a while It was good to ask the voice for advice. Even if he acts like a dick sometimes, the voice was one of the people he knew that won\'t ever betray him.

If the voice had a face, I could bet there would be a smile on it. Finally, what it had been waiting for was happening. Even if it wasn\'t immediately, soon enough it would happen.

A huge pile of words began to appear in Devon\'s mind, it didn\'t matter whether he wasn\'t interested in knowing some detail as the voice explained everything he needed to do to make the plan go smoothly.

.... But I\'m sure we all know that things don\'t go the way we plan them.

"Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant! Devon clapped his hand at the plan the voice suggested for him was amazing.

Now he finally understood why the voice told him about Rachel, as she played a vital role in the mission.

Rachel was once a cougar in the inner compound, and there seemed to be a history between her and Jake.
