Fear paralyzed the fox family. They had never been in such a tight position before. “Please, don't kill him,” a member of the Fox family cried out. “He's the most important member of our family. His existence matters to us. Take my life instead.”Moses could tell even without a prophet that this woman was the child's mother. “That depends on him,” Moses responded to her. “You people claimed the life of an innocent man. How do you account for that?”The masked woman gulped. “We can pay for damages and—”“Bullshit!” Moses barked. “Don't treat human lives like they're commodities to be bought and sold. If that's how little you value the life of someone, then I have no problems with slaughtering the child.”“The reason we chose not to kill you in the first place was because we don't know the extent of your wealth or powers,” the tall man said breathlessly. “We are truly sorry for murdering the slave dealer. Please, spare our patriarch.”Moses glared at him. “I'm against killing, but sin

Clayton couldn't believe his eyes. “$3 billion?”Moses nodded. “That's my last offer.”Clayton regarded Moses closely. “But that's twice the amount I paid for it. No one would pay such an amount for a snail.”Moses shrugged. “I intend to gift the snail to someone. It's worth it's price. So, what do you say?”Clayton licked his dry lips. “If you have the money, then we'll talk.”Moses smirked. “First, get rid of everyone else in here. The tour is over.”It surprised the other guests who laughed at Moses as Clayton shooed them away. “This is unacceptable,” one guest shouted. “We paid good morning to be here. You can't throw us out like that.”Moses grimaced. He turned to Clayton. “Have their money refunded. I don't want to see them in your mansion as long as I'm in here.”Clayton didn't know why, but he trusted Moses' words. “Your money would be refunded to you on your way out the door. Unless this gentleman leaves, you're all prohibited from stepping foot in here.”The crowd booed an

The House of Neptune was not what Moses expected. First of all, the king and all the nobility lived together under one roof. The king's palace had over fifty bedroom chambers, not including the ballrooms, the dinner hall, the library, and the courtroom. This arrangement had been happening for eight generations. The more the courtiers were within the king's sight, the easier it was for him to monitor them. Moses hated the house of Neptune. It was impossible to enjoy one's privacy, even the walls have ears. However, now that Elizabeth had successfully returned to the house of Neptune, she could easily plot her way to the throne. Still, it won't be a simple task because she had watchful eyes on her every time of the day. Meanwhile, Elizabeth served as a servant for the house of Neptune. The House of Neptune all ate at the same dinner table, and in the king's presence. It was a servant's duty to tend to each member of the household as they ate, which was now Elizabeth's role. T

At exactly 12pm, a convoy of five sleek black sedans rolled into the courtyard of the house of Neptune. The cars came to a halt in perfect unison, their doors opening simultaneously.Five people stepped out of the cars looking dressed in sharp suits and expensive wristwatches. These people were members of the executive board members of Rockechilds Empire. Leading them was the Deputy director, a tall, stern-looking man with slicked-back gray hair. The palace guards led the executives inside the enormous building. They were brought before Czar who sat in the Dragon Throne surrounded by the nobles and his servants. As soon as they faced Czar, a lean man with a bald head and hitting the wrong side of sixty stepped forward. "Your majesty," He announced waving to the five individuals. "These are the executives of Rockechilds Empire. I have brought them to you, just as you demanded."Czar nodded. "Thank you, prime minister Gordon. You have done well."Gordon bowed then stepped aside.

Sound of cutleries on plates echoed around the grand dinning hall as the executives of Rockechilds Empire ate together with Czar and Prime Minister Gordon. None of the nobles were present at dinner except for servants and guards.This was an exclusive dinner between the king and Rockechilds Empire. Vector Bush sipped his glass of wine, sighing contently. “Your Majesty, I guarantee you that Rockechilds Empire will bring immense revenue to the economy of Niklauria. Your country would experience growth after our partnership."Moses silently came over and refilled Vector's wine, then stepped back and waited. Across from him, Elizabeth moved between tables, changing plates and serving meals. Czar nodded slowly. “I'm convinced this partnership would benefit my nation.”Czar paused as he leaned forward and stared directly at Vector. “However, I'm more concerned about your chairman. I am keen to know more about his role in this deal.”Vector laughed uneasily. “Your Majesty, I can assure y
