[Ding! System update completed. New functions have been initiated into the system, while some changes have been made to the system.]

Jaden was woken up by the sound of the system. This time, perhaps to wake him up, there was the notification sound, before the prompt came in, together with the voice that echoed in his mind.

Jaden who was sleeping, was fully awake the moment that he heard the prompt. It had already been a very long time for him, ever since the system decided to undergo an update.

Immediately after Jaden had woken up, several prompts appeared in front of his vision, together with the voice in his mind. The number of prompts that appeared in front of his eyes were numerous, nearly blinding him.

[The update of the system has been completed, and the changes that have taken place are as follows.]

[Now, there is a possibility of the host changing a client. Changing a client is limited, with the host only allowed to change clients every 3 months. It is not compulsory for the host to change a client every 3 months, as the host can continue being a bodyguard for the same client for even an entire, or even a decade.]

[Changing of clients is only an option given to the host, depending on the circumstance that the host is currently facing with the current client. Before changing clients, the host must consider that he will not be able to be the bodyguard for that client after leaving.]

[Another feature has been added to the system, to assist the host in his personal growth. The security company under the host can be converted into a bodyguard company. With that, it can be used by the host in order to be able to acquire several rewards from the system.]

[As long as the security company is converted into a bodyguard company, the employees within the company can work as bodyguards for different clients all over the world. As long as they complete their tasks as bodyguards, the host will be rewarded.] Read new adventures at empire

[But if they end up making a mistake while on duty, the host will also face a retribution, in the form of a decrease in his wealth in order to cover the damage caused, or might end up losing an entire company, or an entire feature, depending on the severity of the damage caused.]

[The use of the security company is completely optional, and not compulsory for the host. The host is the one that is going to decide on who is going to be guarded and by whom.]

[For that reason, the host is advised to understand the capabilities of those employees that would be working within the bodyguard company. That way, the host might avoid having those that are sent on a mission, making mistakes that might end up affecting the host.]

[Great achievements by those on duty as bodyguards assigned by the host will also lead to the host being rewarded, just as the mistakes would lead to the host being on the receiving end of something negative.]

[NOTE: The host will not be personally punished, but instead, the punishment that would be placed on the host would not affect him directly, in terms of physicality or mentally, but instead, it would be related to what the host would have gained through the system. The host will definitely lose something that was gained through the system.]

[As for how big what the host will lose, this will depend on the severity of the damage caused, as stated before.]

[With the update of the system, every mission that the host personally completes will lead to the host receiving a reward. But, completely different from the previous time, the reward system will no longer be random.]

[Previously, the reward that the host received would depend on the completion of the mission, and whether the host had completed the mission without the client being hurt.]

[This time after the update, the host will receive the said reward at the issuance of the mission. But, there might be additional rewards according to that completion of the mission.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Previously, optional missions would lead to the host receiving a random reward, while compulsory missions would lead to the host receiving the said rewards as stated during the time of the issuing of the mission.]

[After the update, there will no longer be any compulsory mission. Instead, the host has to understand that it is his task as a bodyguard to make sure that the client\'s safety is maintained.]

[For that reason, the host will not be receiving any prompts from the system, informing him of any incoming danger, which might lead to the death of the client. So, the host will have to identify the problem himself, and solve it.]

[But nonetheless, in case the host manages to save the client from a death risk, there will be a reward, but this time, the reward will be depending on how safe the client is.]

[The possibility of the host changing clients after 3 months will be there, but the host will have to select a client among the options given by the system.]

[According to the situation that would be determined by the system, the number of options that the host will receive will be determined by the system, and the options can range from one, all the way to 10.]

[The host is not allowed to choose a client out of the options given by the system. And, the host will have to select a client within one week. At the end of the week, if the client has not been selected, there is a great possibility that the host will lose the system.]

[As it has been said before, it is a possibility, and not a said fact. It will depend if there will be another option for the host appearing within that week, and in case the option does not appear, there is a great possibility of the loss of the system.]

[The system advises the host to act as how bodyguard should. The host should try as much as possible to be professional, maintaining the role of being a bodyguard.]

[A point to note: Even though the system advises the host to act as how a bodyguard should, the host should not mistake a bodyguard for a lackey. As long as the host maintains the required etiquette of a bodyguard, the host might refuse the requests of the client, as long as they are outside the hosts wishes, but are not in line with his duty.]

[Even though the system will be giving the host the options to select from, the host will be the one to do the negotiation, and determine how he is going to work as a bodyguard for the particular client selected.]

[If the host chooses a client, but fails to come to an agreement with the client on his responsibilities as a bodyguard, the host can be allowed to choose from the remaining options given.]

[In a situation where the host only gained a single option to choose from, the system will generate another option, and there might be a possibility of more options appearing, but there is a possibility of no option appearing.]

[In the situation where there is no option for the host to choose from, the host will be required to leave the particular city that he is in, move to another city within 1 week, trying to see if there is going to be another option that will be generated by the system.]

[If there is no option within the city that the host would have moved to, the host will be required to move to yet another city, and the process will continue until the system generates an option for a client.]

[But this must happen within a single week, otherwise, there is a possibility of the host losing the system after a week of not having a client.]

That was the final prompt that Jaden received. Jaden took quite a long time to be able to process all the information that had been given to him by the system through the prompts.

It could be said that after the update, several changes had taken place, with some of them giving Jaden a very big advantage, but others, they had led to Jaden receiving a disadvantage, something that was going to restrict him.

It might be true that the restriction was not something that was going to hinder his personal freedom, considering that there was the fact that even though he was supposed to maintain professionalism during work, he would not have to serve as a lackey.

The only problem that Jaden found here was that he was limited to changing clients only after 3 months. That implied that if he was not in good terms with his current client at that moment, it would be impossible for him to be able to change clients, and would have to wait until the time frame for changing clients ended.

The worst thing that could happen was for the client to fire Jaden from his position as a bodyguard, when 3 months had yet to elapse. That would definitely be something that would be a problem, as Jaden would only have one week to get another client, and the client could only be generated by the system through the options given.

But, the problem here was the fact that no options would be given before the 3 months time frame ended. If it was only a single day or two before the three months, there would be no problem, but if it was a month or even two away, that would be problematic.
