Gangster System: I Will Become The Greatest Gangster!

Chapter 22 Awe



After running 10 miles and for more than an hour, I could see that Angela was drenched in sweat and was done.

Jumping off the treadmill with the last ounce of energy she had, if she hadn\'t gotten off any sooner, her knees would have buckled and she would have ended up being launched flying backward by the treadmill.

That was the most she had ever run in her life and how much she had run was impressive, but nowhere near as impressive as how much I was able to run, considering all my injuries.

Staring at me in awe, she got back up and walked on her treadmill that was beside mine, as she waited to see just how much longer I could run.

Even walking felt hard for her and her legs were aching, and yet I didn\'t show any signs of stopping.

However, it didn\'t last long and after 13 miles, I almost collapsed and, just like her, I jumped off the treadmill and had reached my limit.

Maybe if I was in full health, I could do a few more miles, but completing an entire marathon felt impossible.

I had done half and was on the verge of vomiting, with my throat burning and my chest in great pain.

Heading towards the first water fountain that I spotted, I began gulping down water as Angela threw me a towel to dry my sweat.

"Where\'d you get this from?" I ask, not remembering her bringing anything with her.

"The gym provides them," she answered as she dried her sweat and untied her hair.

"You going to stretch?"

"Yeah, but let me get something to drink first and catch my breath."

Heading towards a vending machine, I followed behind her like a child following their mother as I watched her buy herself a protein drink that I couldn\'t help but want.

After such a long run and pushing myself so much, it was unavoidable to seek something sweet, and I felt like a child as I asked her to buy one for me.

It was embarrassing and the only thing I had with me was my phone, which I couldn\'t use for contactless payments because of how old it was.

If it were anyone else, my pride wouldn\'t allow it, but with Angela, after experiencing such a crazy event together, I didn\'t really care, and she didn\'t seem to mind either.

​ Buying me one, she teased me about it as she handed it to me and I could see that it had reminded her that I was merely a high school drop out.

"Thanks," was all I managed to get out before chugging the drink.

It felt great and rejuvenated me greatly, but the pleasant feeling didn\'t last long.

I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my stomach as it growled.

"Are you alright?" she asked, seeing that I had grabbed my stomach.

"I\'ll be back in a moment," I answered before speedily walking towards the nearest bathroom, as I heard her laughing.

\'Why do I feel as though my ass is going to explode at any moment?\'

Rushing to the bathroom, while trying not to make any sudden movements that might cause it to slip out, I let out a sigh of relief as I sat down on the toilet seat.

I was in such a rush I hadn\'t even bothered to wipe it, but it seemed clean and the bathroom was spotless.

As soon as I sat down on the toilet seat, things I never even knew I had inside me burst out of my bottom as I helplessly let out a groan.

Thankfully, there didn\'t seem to be anybody in the bathroom.

[It seems as though the host is feeling the effects of the Rapid Recovery that the system provided.]

\'What?!\'

[Well, since it boosts your body\'s metabolism in order to enhance your recovery speed, that also causes your body to digest and complete bodily functions much faster.]

It made sense, but I couldn\'t even respond as the second wave of releases came.

"Aaahhhh!"

-

Meanwhile, Angela, who was waiting for Xavier near the vending machine, was approached by someone she seemed to recognise.

Looking at him with disdain, she turned to walk away, but he grabbed her arm, before saying, "I saw that you were running. You looked great."

"Why don\'t you come and watch me train?"

He was a large man with a very muscular physique, and upon moving into the same building as Angela, he had been approaching her every time he spotted her.

At first, he was just shooting his shot and trying to get close to her, but after being refused many times, now he was just harassing her.

"Let go of me," she sternly responded.

"Come on, babes, are you really gonna do me like this? This is like the fifth time."

"Get the hint and leave me alone."

However, Angela\'s words did nothing to quench the lust in his eyes as he moved in towards her, forcing her against the wall vending machine.

He licked his lips as he leaned in towards her and grabbed her waist.

Angela felt helpless, and he was much larger than her, but more than that, his eyes scared her slightly.

However, she didn\'t have to fear any longer...
