Mr. Smith's Trillion Dollar System Chapter 347
The Malcolm family was one with a history spanning more than a hundred years.They had wealth, power, and connections, both within and outside Zion, ensuring that they remained powerhouses that few dared to go against.Any that had dared to always found themselves unable to withstand the might of the Malcolms, inadvertently leading to defeat, destruction, or in some cases indoctrination.Their immensity also meant that even if one had the strength to defeat them, it would make it difficult to do so.This was why Richard didn't plan on any acts that could lead to the complete extermination of the Malcolm family.No matter how angry he was, killing so many people didn't just sit well with him even though they did deserve it after everything they'd done.But he didn't necessarily have to pay back evil with evil and he had already decided on how to handle this tyrannical family to ensure that they would never rise after their defeat today.With that in mind, he took the groom's life befor

Luther stared at Richard realizing once again why he had considered him a real threat to his rule.Very few people had caused Luther to feel fear of any sort, one of them being the Emperor on the only occasion Luther was privileged to be in his presence.The same feeling he felt back then, the feeling of no matter what I do, I won't be able to reach that level, rushed through him as he stared at Richard solidifying his belief that Richard had a connection to the Imperial Legacy.Richard remained calm as he remarked. “Before you head over to jail where you'll be spending a long time behind bars, I have a few questions, one of which involves the specifics of the dealings you had with the Imperial family.”Luther froze as he realized what Richard was talking about.Then a sick smile adorned his lips. “So that's how it, I'm such a fool, why didn't I see it back then?... Haha, this is so hilarious.”“What are you talking about?” Richard inquired.Ignoring him, Luther calmly intoned. “You c

It was a genuine question asked by someone who cared about the people and their circumstances.Luther had done as any dictator would, suppressing the people's voice with the desire to ensure that they wouldn't ever speak up against him as the strongest power in a state were its citizens though few were willing to acknowledge that.Regardless, the fact that Luther had oppressed them had ensured that they would be terrified to do anything without looking over their shoulder every waking moment.Managing a smile, Richard replied. “Now that Luther is gone, you can get the people to no longer feel the need to hide. Intercity is as much theirs as it is ours, so let's fight for it together.”“Understood.” The minister replied.Nodding in satisfaction, Richard remarked. “You should get some rest for now. As is, we'd need to hold a congress to get the people to support you being reinstated as minister of the state. Before then, you'd best eat, drink, and rest as much as you can, it would do yo

By the time, they were done sharing their stories, it was already late into the night so Richard opted to leave while Maria pleaded with him to stay.Ultimately, the lady won out with Richard spending the night while she busied herself unpacking.The next day, Richard drove over to meet with Commissioner Watson after the old general had bombarded his phone multiple times, asking him to come over.Once there, he was met with a tense atmosphere causing Richard to frown. “Did something happen?” “There's good news and bad news, which would you like to hear first?” Watson began.“Good.” “The good news is that the city is recovering well from the tyranny of Luther's rule.”“And the bad?”“The Golden Circle is moving against trying to reinstate your friend as Minister and is even calling for you to be cast out as you pose a threat to the city with your army running things alongside the city security.”“Why didn't they do anything when Luther was around?”“Naturally, he promised them benefi

Richard didn't know what to make of the recent boldness of the women in his life. Was it because of the Malcolm incident that they all decided to do this?It almost felt like they had planned to do it in the exact sequence they'd entered into his life, starting with Maria and now Melinda.Who next?... Edith?No, the confusion would be too much then.Should he just reject them all and leave life alone?Before then, he'd already considered doing so it wouldn't change anything but then… he'd already done it with Maria and now with Melinda seated so close to him, making such a request, was it right to just run away?“Melinda… I slept with Maria yesterday.” Richard confessed. Melinda paused, her expression shifting for a moment before she let out a sigh. “I knew she'd be a part of it.”“What?”“I'm willing to share you but I have to pick the women, accepted?”It sounded almost like they were already married which made it weigh heavily on Richard's mind.“But… is that okay?... It doesn't

It seemed suspicious no matter how he looked at it, Richard thought.If the Legacy was so important to the Imperial family, why hadn't Maverick tried to take it from him despite figuring out that he most likely had it?Also, why hadn't he reached out to those in the capital to inform them of the situation here?Surely there had to be a reason and so far, Maverick hadn't given him a reason to believe that his hidden agenda was good.Due to that, Richard remained alert, prepared to react the moment Maverick and his subordinates attacked.Of course, he asked the question to catch Maverick off guard, and seeing the prince quiet down for a moment, Richard knew he had asked the right question.Maverick mulled over his words for quite some time before responding. “Do you want to know the truth?”“If it's on the table, yes.” Richard calmly replied.Maverick sighed. “Fine then, the reason I haven't tried to take it from you is because I'm scared.”“Hmm?”“Ruinous Drake in his lifetime was said

Richard headed back to the Smithsonian where he had a filling dinner with Maddie, Lolita, and Grandma after which he retired to bed.Of course, before he fell into a deep slumber, Maria called him, informing him that she'd done what he asked with Richard replying with thanks as he knew how hard it must have been.With that sorted, all that was needed was to wait for the morrow for the meeting with the Golden Circle.***The next day Richard woke up bright and early, heading over to the gym where he had a membership.It had been quite some time and on getting there, he was faced with a lot of enthusiastic fans as they gathered for selfies and the likes. As it was, Richard Smith was the number one celebrity in Intercity.Feeling awkward at first, he finally got into it as those in the gym decided on group exercises which was a deviation from the solo exercises Richard was used to.It lasted for two hours with Richard feeling even lighter than when he left.Waving goodbye to a few new c

Two agents of the so-called LLL Network soon arrived, one young and the other old.Having already been informed of their arrival, the staff of the restaurant led them to where Richard and Maddie were waiting.Initially taken aback by Richard's presence, they were quick to hide their surprise as they took their seat across from them.Richard was the first to speak. “Would you gentlemen like to take anything as we discuss your proposal?”“Just water would suffice.” The middle-aged man replied with Richard gesturing to the waiter waiting on them.Nodding, she left, leaving the four to continue their conversation.“Mr. Smith, before I begin, I must say it is an honor to meet you.” The young man said.“Oh?... Why though?”“Naturally because of your fame, Mr. Smith. Right now, you are an enigma in the business world and an even greater one in the world hidden in the shadows.”“I see. Well then, enough about that. You wish to enter a beneficial relationship with my sister's company. Why?”“I

Snorting derisively, Richard glanced at Queen Mother who was staring hatefully at him. “Due to your antiquated beliefs, you have allowed nonsense to remain, ensuring that progress is not made. Do you think that if this man rules, he would do a better job than his father?... I mean, at least the Emperor is sufficiently strong, but this fool?... Ah, well, what can I say?”Seeing as how everyone was silent, Richard continued. “My mother should have sat on that throne, she was the natural choice, but you all decided that because of her gender, she would not rule. Foolish. Too foolish. Now she lays dead, having tried her whole life to ensure that her family was safe and secure, a feeling she would have extended to everyone here had she remained.”The silence indeed deafening as no one knew what to say.The fact that Tabitha was dead was also quite shocking.“Regardless… I am here now and I plan to make changes. The first change I shall make as Crown Prince…”“You are not Crown Prince and w

Richard sat in his bedroom, already prepared for the bout that would bring everything to a natural conclusion.His expression is impassive, he sat before a mirror and wondered what he would do after he had won.It was a question he needed to answer before he could take the right to the Crown in good faith.He was no leader, so was he willing to become one all because he wished to avenge his mother?Letting out a sigh, he thought to call his beloveds only for someone to knock at his door.“Come in.” He calmly responded.Moments later, Gina entered alongside her father, Elder Wu, both of whom had their heads down as they found themselves unable to meet Richard's gaze.Seconds passed before Richard inquired. “Why are you here?”“... I… no, we are sorry, your highness. We were scared and…”“And so you decided as long as you survived, an innocent man paying the price would not be too bad.”“That…”“Sums it up nicely. If only you had stood your ground, I would have made sure you both got th

“Ahem, Princess Liliana.” An elder who could hardly control his curiosity any longer called out, drawing the attention of the first Princess. “Yes, elder?”“... Can you see me?” He inquired as it was common knowledge that the first princess had gone blind at some point as a result of her condition.Silence followed for a moment before the princess replied. “Of course, I can see you, older.”A flurry of gasps escaped the lips of everyone present as one exclaimed.“It's a miracle!”Soon enough, many more began to comment causing the hall to turn rowdy.“The princess is cured of her condition?... How is this possible?”“It makes no sense, the Princess couldn't have been healed just like that.”Just then, the Emperor erupted. “Silence!”Immediately, the hall went pin-drop quiet as everyone shifted their attention to the Emperor who had his eyes on Lily.“Are you truly cured, Liliana?” He inquired softly.Lily pursed her lips. “Yes… I am.”“But how?... Even your aunt Tabitha who was a pow

Eve could never have fathomed that Richard had anticipated her sabotage and carried out measures to make up for it.In her long life, she had never met someone who was able to match her cunning which was why even though Richard proved himself smart, she still considered herself superior.She had superior intellect, superior resources, and superior manpower and most importantly, Richard was on her home turf.There was no way he could pull a fast one on her yet here he was, doing exactly that.Her mind turned fast, trying to figure out how exactly she missed these drones but despite her efforts, she found herself pulling up repeated blanks with no end in sight.She'd made sure she destroyed all the drones after Richard had unceremoniously revealed that he had a network of drones currently spying on every portion of the capital.Of course, he hadn't said it outrightly but she had deduced it judging from what she had learned about his life so far.Which was why she had gotten her most tru

“It's not even been a week since he arrived yet he does something like this, so despicable.”“If he couldn't control himself, couldn't he have gotten a courtesan?... So cheap, utterly disgusting.”“I can't believe such a person is the Legacy. If he truly is the Legacy, he needs to have the Black Book stripped from him before he turns into a monster.”A lot of murmurs flew around amongst those Richard saw on his way to his destination, with many giving scathing remarks as they hurried past him.Whatever the first prince and Queen Mother were planning, its initial effect seemed to be quite good.They'd played an incredibly good card.Soon, he arrived at the courthouse where several elders both from the Right Hand and the Left Hands were gathered.Several looked upon Richard with scorn and absolute disgust with some even voicing their discontent.“I knew we should have never allowed him into the city. He looks like the textbook definition of a hooligan.”“To dare do such a thing and to E

Lily hadn't ever thought she'd be able to live a normal life again.From birth, she'd already been tagged as a child with little prospects and so was left to suffer alone for years.Few of her step-siblings ever showed any form of care, instead treating her as an opponent out of the race.That was the unfortunate thing.Every single member of the Royal family saw themselves as opponents to be defeated and not as a family.It was a situation born out of a desire to rule over millions.Very few were like Maverick, who didn't bother with anything and instead just tried to enjoy as much of their lives as they could.But here comes someone who has no connections to her, doing what no one else had ever deemed necessary to do.No, perhaps, she indeed had a connection to him.Hadn't he said it himself?... This was his attempt at finishing what his mother had started.Tears clouded Lily's eyes as she muttered softly. “Thank you.”Richard managed a smile as he reached out and cleaned a tear tha

The lady, having finished her heartfelt melody, took a deep breath before proceeding to empty her lungs, a look of satisfaction etched on her face.However, she soon paused with her expression shifting as she seemed to sense something, then she asked.“Who's there?” Her voice sounded hoarse, almost like it wasn't used as much as it was supposed to.Richard pondered on how best to respond before deciding to be straightforward.“My name is Richard Smith, I was attracted over by your zither playing. I must confess, it was incredible listening to you play, you are a genius.”The lady seemed to relax only for her expression to shift to curiosity as she inquired. “Smith?... You mean the man who claims to be the Legacy?”“I have been called that.”“I see, it would explain why I didn't detect you immediately. You carry a presence that despite being so immense, can be easily ignored… almost like a ghost.”Richard was unsure of how to respond and so, remarked. “Do you play this every night?”“

In a certain way, Richard had come to rely on the camouflaged drones as the best way to ensure he was never blindsided.If evidence couldn't be gotten from other sources, why not make your own?That was his understanding and so he didn't hesitate to apply it with necessary, hence the reason why he had already unleashed a good number of drones into the capital the night before.Ensuring they covered every corner of the city, nothing was happening in the capital Richard wasn't aware of.How he knew that Elder Wu wasn't doing as he had instructed and was instead meeting with his fellow Rights to discuss what he considered to be a potential disruption of the Order of the city.It seems he feared that Richard would cause chaos in his desire to get revenge.It was understandable why he would think that way but Richard was no madman and he had no desire to implicate innocents in his quest for justice for his mother.Regardless, that wasn't the point right now as he watched Prince Harry's exp

When was the last time he'd been so casually insulted that it felt like a compliment?Harry couldn't remember, perhaps because it had never happened.Those that had dared to look down on him had paid the price without question yet the man before him made him feel like that wouldn't be the case no matter what he did.Harry turned livid as he hated the fact that someone else, a nobody for that matter, would lead him to feel so wary.“How about we put that claim to the test then?” Harry inquired, unwilling to back down just like that.Richard raised a brow. “Wasn't this meant to be a party?”“Plans changed, let us compete. I believe it's a better way to decide if your words are true or you just have a big mouth, don't you agree?”“I see.”“Or perhaps, are you scared?” Harry asked in slight provocation.Richard shrugged. “Alright then, if you really wish to humiliate yourself, then sure, let's fight.”Harry snorted. “Good. We shall exchange three blows. Whoever can remain standing without
