Willy sat nervously in the audience. This was his sister’s first performance on such a large stage. Although Tessa seemed calm and composed backstage, Willy couldn’t help but feel anxious for her.
"Willy, you seem to lack confidence in Tessa?" Violet, sitting next to him, patted his hand and said.
"It’s not that I lack confidence... it’s just that I feel a little nervous for no reason," Willy replied.
"Heh, I’m going to the bathroom," Violet said with a mysterious smile, getting up and heading off the stage.
"Now? Tessa's about to perform!" Willy exclaimed.
"I’ll be quick, don’t worry!" Violet smiled and disappeared backstage.
As Tessa took the stage, the music began, and sh

More than half of the audience shook their red envelopes excitedly. Meanwhile, those who hadn’t won were still hopeful, but with so few prizes left, their chances of winning were becoming slimmer."Don’t be upset, there’s still a chance!

Willy was at a loss for words. Is that really a name?"Uh, my name's Willy. Your name is really long!" he said, feeling a bit awkward."You can just call me Kamido," the lizard man replied. "I advise you, if you have no other business, don’t wander around our forbidden zone. If you encounter other members of our tribe, they will kill you! The leaders of your Four Great Ancient Nations, along with the heads of Russia and A Country, have all signed agreements prohibiting humans from stepping into our forbidden zone!""So even the leaders know about the existence of the lizard people?!" Willy was astonished."Yes, now you can leave," Kamido said, turning to walk away."Wait, where do you live?

463: Does He Still Need to Learn?
In the days that followed, Willy ignored all the external requests for help and focused solely on managing his business and family matters. If Big Shot truly couldn’t handle things, he would come to Willy for help, and Willy hadn’t forgotten about the arrogance and unreasonable behavior from Y Country. He was always ready to take action against them when the time came.Although he had earlier contacted the merfolk to have sea monsters attack the EU's coastal cities, causing some damage, that was hardly anything serious. It wasn’t even a warning, really. Willy wasn’t in a rush; time was on his side. However, he did need to hurry up with sorting out Charles' kindergarten situation.Coincidentally, Neil from New York University and Cecilia from Grok University reached out to Willy. Both of them informed him that their respective top-tier facilities had been completed and were already running smoothly. They invited Mr. Morgan to visit and suggested
462: Once the Money Is in Place, Everything Is Negotiable
The recent eruption of Mount Vesuvius had been different from previous eruptions, which had been intermittent and not particularly violent. This time, it was as if the magma had been building up for years and suddenly erupted with full force, sending plumes of lava into the sky above Europe. Within seconds, the southern coastline of Italy was covered in volcanic ash. Soon after, countless rocks and ash rained down, and within an hour, several nearby provinces were enveloped in black smoke. The ash, carried by the monsoon winds, spread to countries like Switzerland and Hungary.When Willy woke up, the news of the volcanic eruption was dominating global headlines, and his personal email had been bombarded with urgent requests for help from EU countries.Willy glanced at the messages briefly, ignoring all the ones related to the volcanic eruption, and instead focused on the important work-related emails, responding to them as needed.Ding!

"Heh, that’s normal, right? Babe, the kind of kindergarten you’re talking about, it’s not cheap, is it?""It’s not too bad! These few I looked at cost about twenty-something million a year.""To us, twenty million is nothing—just a meal or a drink. But for regular people, that’s a year’s salary. They’re spending everything they make, not eating or drinking, just to send their kid to kindergarten. Doesn’t that seem expensive to you?""So, darling, are you saying that kindergarten is becoming more commercialized now? Forget about how well they actually educate the kids—just focus on flashy facilities and complex curricula to confuse parents into signing up?""Heh, pretty much! Look at these brochures you’re holding. All they do is praise how amazing, powerful, and impressive their kindergarten is. But do any of them mention that the goal of the kindergarten is to educate the children? To me,

"Damn! You're really my big brother! Yes, it's this Sunday, and it's at the same place where Rose and Pigeon are getting married! You coming?""Of course! I’ll go back and arrange your positions. Or, if you two want, you can come to my company and I’ll show you around. You can choose for yourselves?"Willy actually wanted to keep the two of them close by, to protect his family. It would make him feel more at ease, especially after Y Country's Big Shot had sent assassins after him. After that, Willy realized how important safety truly was. Even though he had Wione and the others by his side, with a family as large as his—his parents, three children, his Babe, his sister, his uncle’s family, and sometimes even his secretary—it was a lot to keep track of. He wondered what Black Wolf thought about all this.But then he remembered: Black Wolf had left Big Shot’s side for the sake of living a simpler life. So, how could he expect so
459: Sea Monster Attack
Willy stood in the plaintiff's section, watching with a smile as the EU representatives argued vehemently."Order! Since you’ve all agreed to the compensation, the next matter will be for the defendants to handle their own claims!" the judge declared, signaling for Willy to leave the courtroom.There was no need for further debate. Willy’s evidence was solid, and the entire world was watching, so everyone knew who was right and who was wrong.Willy glanced over at the EU representatives, a deep smile on his face. The compensation was only the first step for him. Heh, Europe was so close to his allies, the merfolk. If, in the near future, there were reports of sea monsters attacking coastal cities in the EU, it wouldn’t be his problem.Willy left the Netherlands, prepared a sufficient amount of food for the merfolk, and then piloted his aircraft to the merfolk's territory.After a brief negotiation with the merfolk, he handed over
458: The Court Hearing
In the afternoon, Willy received a video from Big Shot. It was a heated argument that took place during a meeting of the European Union, where several members disagreed with Y Country’s sanctions. The video clearly indicated that the EU had initiated the conflict. Willy couldn’t help but admire Big Shot's skills—he had clearly been setting up his plan for years, planting "landmines" along the way.At 3 PM, Willy turned off the surveillance at Willy Manufacturing, moved the equipment into his system space, and restored the video. Then, he flew to Will Planet.Upon arriving at Will Planet, he found an empty spot and took out various large and heavy pieces of equipment. Of course, Willy didn’t need to lift them; pulling them out of his system space was instantaneous.Meanwhile, the scientists on Will Planet were enjoying the magnificent sights of the planet.When they saw Willy arrive, they greeted him warmly."So, how’s

"I understand, Willy. You go ahead and rest. We’ll go take a break. He can’t die just yet, right?""No, he can’t die." Willy had everything under control in his mind. The poison was only going to give him endless hallucinations, and with his legs broken, there was no way he could run away. He wouldn’t die either—though he’d probably meet his end tomorrow.It was already 3 AM when Willy left the compound, and he quickly made his way home. To his surprise, Violet was still awake!"Darling! You’re back!" Violet’s voice sounded hoarse."Poor thing, you’ve been crying, haven’t you? Your voice is all hoarse.""I’m fine. I was just worried about you and the child. What happened to those two bastards?""One’s dead, and the other’s spilled some major information. We’ll have to wait for Big Shot’s decision tomorrow.""Major information?""Yes. The o

Willy swung the iron rod with reckless abandon, ruthlessly smashing the limbs of the J Country assassin!Of course, Willy was careful not to strike too hard—he didn’t want the man to die just yet.After a long period of beating, the man’s limbs were broken. Willy then took out a healing ointment from his pocket, mixed it with a little water, and with a smile, said to the nearly lifeless assassin, "You know what my greatest strength is? It’s not my combat abilities; it's my power to revive you just before you die. This is the super medicine from my Willy’s company! Drink this, and your limbs will quickly heal! Then I’ll inject you with this pink drug and break your limbs again! How does that sound?""You! You’re a devil!""Did you call me a devil when you tried to kill my son and me?" Willy chuckled as he pried open the man’s mouth and force-fed him the entire vial of the healing ointment, then waited for him
455: Pain Beyond Endurance
"Fuck!" After Willy didn’t know how many buckets of water he had thrown, the assassin finally woke up!"You—You tied me up? What are you going to do to me?""Heh, don’t be scared. As for what I’ll do, take a look at the man in front of you. He was also sent to assassinate me and my child. Unfortunately, neither of you has the skills or the strength, and now you’ve fallen into my hands. I have some questions, and I want to see if you’re willing to cooperate.""I won’t cooperate with you! Just kill me already!""Heh, killing you outright would be too easy. I want to play a bit first. Do you see the man in front of you? I just injected him with a special drug! This drug amplifies a person’s sense of touch by dozens of times. In other words, if I lightly touch him, it’ll feel like excruciating pain. Let me give it a try."Willy approached the man and gently slapped his face.In an instant, th
