Chapter: Chapter 12The banquet was over and Amelia felt bad that things didn't go as planned. When she finished her art performance, young master Dean and his group never liked the art. Every other dignitaries applauded Amelia but everything went sour the moment she heard an uproar. Brandon, who heard the noise thought they were cheering her up but then he decided to find out what was happening. He touched his bronze ring and a blue panel came up.'Dragon System activated' "Show me what is happening in the crowd" He began to see that Dean and his group were causing problems. Amelia wasn't comfortable anymore. Brandon swiped left of the panel to see what her art work portrayed and he was shocked. He now understood why Dean was not happy. He called Henry, "make sure to control the situation.""Sure, I am on it" The whole noise made everywhere to be rowdy and then everyone began to disperse. This wasn't the plan. Brandon wanted everyone to be relaxed before he came out to talk to them and appreciat

Chapter: Chapter 11What Brandon wouldn't want is someone to cause chaos in the midst of top business people. Already some people sitted in their table were already drawn to him. He looked towards the direction of the voice that called him and the group of men standing in his presence were beginning to set apart giving room for the person to show his face. Brandon was surprised to see young master Dean. He was already tense but didn't make it obvious. As he came forth, Brandon stood confidently, with his legs a little apart and his hands clasped together. "Brandon, we meet again" he said and began to laugh sheepishly. "Master Dean, what is it again?" He asked bodly knowing fully well that he was in his territory. "I should be asking you that" Dean put his hands behind his back and began to walk around him slowly. "You know, I am surprised to see you in such a gathering and I am wondering who allowed your type in here." "But I don't look like what you think about me" Dean chuckled silently, "forge

Chapter: Chapter 10"What are you?" Brandon asked in confusion after waking up to see that the panel was still very much floating in front of him. ''What do you want from me? Who sent you, and how did you get into the ring?" He continued, voicing all the questions in his mind as he continued to watch the panel wearily.'I am the dragon system.' The system replied, 'I am from the darkest part of the abyss. I was made by an entity who lived a life of regrets, and in order to help others not live a regretful life, I was made.''I am here to help you achieve all your dreams and aspirations, and I have always lived in the ring, even before I met your grandfather,' the system explained.'I have been programmed with tasks and rewards to help you live an enjoyable life while achieving your goals in life. These tasks and rewards were made by the creator and others like him who had lived a regretful life.''In return for the system's help, the host will have to live an upright and helping life. Your wealth and k

Chapter: Chapter 9"Master Brandon, you should allow the maids to do that for you; that's what we get paid for," Leah, the cook, voiced shakily as she walked into the kitchen after her break to see Brandon cutting himself a plate of fruit. A cold shiver ran down her back at the thought of how livid Henry would be if he found out about Brandon serving himself. "Give it to me; I'll be done in no time," she announced as she moved closer, trying to take up the task from him. "It's fine; I can do it myself. It's just a plate of fruit," Brandon replied calmly as he continued to peel the apple like he had done thousands of times in the past."I heard you will be in charge of the banquet menu; what will be on the menu, if I may ask?" Brandon questioned, trying to make small talk to help her relax and get used to his presence since it would soon become an everyday occurrence in the mansion.Suddenly getting served when he had been the one doing the serving all his life made him feel awkward and uncomfortable,

Chapter: Chapter 8"Have you thought about it?" Henry asked with a serious expression as Brandon stood by the door of the Dragon Mansion after walking through the city to clear his thoughts all afternoon."I have, and I've decided to go along with all this; whatever all this is, I want to stop being so mediocre," Brandon replied firmly. "Even if I never knew any of them, I'll try my best, as this is a good will left to me by an old man on his dying bed," he added, and Henry relaxed his tense expression as he breathed out a sigh of relief before smiling at Brandon."I have said it before, but it wasn't at the proper time, so I'm going to do it again." Henry voiced as he bowed his head towards the stunned Brandon, "Welcome home, young master Brandon. My name is Henry Adams, and I am your faithful surrogate. I'll be your sword and shield, and you can rest easy as the dragon of the dragon empire." As he declared his words, all the staff in the mansion gathered at the entrance, forming two straight lines o

Chapter: Chapter 7"Here, sign it," Cassandra declared smugly as she brought out a stack of divorce papers that she had prepared beforehand. Brandon took the papers and read through them carefully, trying to find if there were any traps in them.Confirming there was none, he picked up the papers and began to sign without much as an argument or a complaint. Cassandra stared in shock at the stone-cold Brandon signing the divorce papers without any hesitation. Despite wanting the divorce, she never imagined he would sign it easily, so casually. Like, she never meant anything to him.He had agreed way too easily for her liking, which made her feel insulted that he didn't beg or at least fight to keep her.She would not have agreed, but at least it would make her feel like a winner for a long time.Looking at the signed papers, she felt cheap and annoyed. She stared fixedly at him, trying to see any slight change in his expressionless face to show she had won. She had made him feel less than a man, but al
