Chapter 4: Gift Package
[ Host, would you like to receive the Family Development Beginner Gift Package? ]
His heart raced with excitement as he quickly replied, "Of course!"
With anticipation bubbling inside him, he opened the package, eager to see what surprises awaited.
[ The Family Development Beginner Gift Package have been opened : 10 Million Unicreds in family development funds have been rewarded and a piece of stock information ]
[ Note : The family development funds can only be used to develop and grow the family. It has been transferred into the host PNB ( which stands for Panterra National Bank) bank account ]
[ The personal panel have been opened ].
Looking at these system gift package Arthur was quite excited when he looked at the huge amount of money rewarded : 10 Million Unicreds, Unicreds is the currency in Panterra.
In Panterra the currency is completely unified, all countries in this world use the same currency which is : [ Unicred ] which was issued by the World Council a century ago.
It's exchange rate is ten times more than the US Dollar back on Earth which means this 10 Million Unicreds can be exchange for 100 Million Dollars back on Earth
Previously, such an amount might not have thrilled him; after all, the Osborn Group was valued in the hundreds of millions with annual revenues soaring into tens of millions.
But now, facing bankruptcy, this financial boost felt like a lifeline, one that could alleviate their burdens and even settle outstanding debts.
Arthur's curiosity piqued at the mention of stock information.
Although he wasn't well-versed in stock speculation, he knew it could be crucial for their recovery.
"Wait… will this stock information just download into my brain?" he suddenly wondered aloud.
[Correct Host! I will transfer the information directly into your mind.]
"Great," Arthur replied with a shake of his head before diving into his system panel.

Arthur absorbed this information with satisfaction. "System, what exactly are Family Influence Points?" he asked.
[Family Influence Points represent how prestigious and influential your family is; more prestige equals more power.]
"So only FIP can upgrade our system and enhance our family's strength?" Arthur queried further.
[Correct! Currently, the Osborn Family has only 1150 FIP but needs 10,000 FIP to reach the next level.]
"Got it," Arthur nodded thoughtfully. "And what about Family Level?"
[ The Family Level is current rank or level the Osborn Family is ranked according to the system calculation but ad the family influence continues to expand and become more powerful then the Osborn Family would ranked up as well ]
[Note: Thee Family Ranking is tied to the number of FIP the Family has ]
The system quickly explained in it's usual cold and emotionless voice.
"Good," Arthur nodded, a smile creeping onto his lips as he absorbed the information. He closed the system panel and took a moment to survey his surroundings.
The room he was now in was nothing short of magnificent, a bedroom that dwarfed his modest apartment back on Earth.
In the center stood a massive bed, flanked by an enormous TV mounted on the wall opposite.
The floor gleamed with white marble tiles that exuded luxury, while a grand wardrobe loomed nearby.
Above him, a stunning chandelier cast a warm glow over the entire space. It was clear: this bedroom was both spacious and luxurious.
However, as Arthur's eyes roamed around, they landed on mountains of scattered bottles strewn across the floor.
The room was in disarray, and an overpowering smell of alcohol filled the air, enough to make him wrinkle his nose in distaste.
In his previous life on Earth, he had never been fond of drinking; in fact, he despised the very scent of alcohol.
Even this Arthur, the one he now inhabited his body, had never experienced drinking before.
Shaking off his discomfort, Arthur stood up and made his way into the lavish bathroom. Approaching the large mirror, he gazed at his reflection in disbelief.
"Hmm... this guy is really handsome!" he grinned at himself.
Compared to his former self back on Earth, ordinary and plain, this Arthur radiated charm with striking features: a strong symmetrical jawline, full lips that seemed sculpted to perfection, and piercing blue eyes that shimmered like gemstones against thick dark lashes.
His skin glowed with health; tall at nearly 6 feet 2 inches (1.89 meters), he had a well-proportioned physique, not overly muscular but undeniably fit with dark brown hair accented by subtle natural highlights.
"Damn! I'm really handsome!" Arthur chuckled narcissistically as he struck poses in front of the mirror.
After shaking off those thoughts, he hopped into the shower for a refreshing cleanse.
Thirty minutes later, standing before another full-length mirror dressed in fresh attire, a pair of casual white jeans paired with a crisp white shirt and topped off with a sleek black blazer, he felt ready to take on anything life threw at him.
A small gold cross-shaped necklace adorned his neck while stylish white sneakers completed the look.
"Now that looks better," he nodded in satisfaction before heading out of his room located on the third floor of this mansion.
As he descended the stairs towards the living room, an unexpected voice interrupted him.
"Master Arthur! You finally decided to come out from your room."
Arthur turned around sharply to see where it came from, a man in his forties stood just a few meters away from him.
Dressed impeccably in a sleek butler suit complemented by shining black leather shoes and sporting a fine mustache along with neatly combed black hair.
The man gives off an elegant and mature temperament especially his eyes which were pitch black like the night sky.
