Nobody knew what was happening. The Childe family didn't understand why Pierre seemed afraid of Marcus. They frowned at each other.Meanwhile, Marcus glanced at Pierre before nodding. "You arrived two minutes earlier than I expected. Good. You're not late."Only then did Pierre heave a sigh of relief. When Marcus phoned him, he immediately contacted his friends in public transportation management. Pierre asked his friends to clear the traffic. That way, he could arrive at the Childe residence within five minutes. Otherwise, Pierre wouldn't have been on time. One would be courting death if they dared to be late to meet Marcus, the ultimate powerhouse in society."It's great that you're here, Mr. Hinman! I was about to report something to you!" Howard hadn't realized the situation, so he acted against Marcus. "Our company's vice president, Vivian, and her husband falsified an approval document! "It even has a forged signature of yours! See? It's illegal. As a citizen of Merania
"You're clearly too poor to afford high-quality counterfeits. Yet, you're out here acting like an upper-class socialite. I can't believe you've made people believe you're rich by posting fancy pictures online!" Marcus scoffed. Then, he continued, "You're sharing the bill for a grand afternoon tea? Gosh. Now, I've seen everything. Wait; I just remembered something. What about those so-called celebs from Easton that pay 10 thousand dollars to stay in hotels' presidential suits for a night? Do they also share the bill like you guys?""What nonsense are you spouting, you penniless loser?" Sabrina huffed. Her contempt for Marcus worsened when she saw how average he looked. In truth, she had observed the table of food for some time. She watched as Jill ordered some food for the table before the latter headed to the washroom. Sabrina knew most girls took a while to use the toilet. So, she devised a plan to act like she had ordered the food. Then, Sabrina texted her fake socialite frien
"Sorry, our dealership is emptying our garage, so our vehicles are temporarily unavailable for purchase to the public." Although Summer disdained Marcus, she maintained a polite tone around him. In her eyes, Marcus was a young man dressed in cheap, casual clothing. Nothing about his appearance made him look like he could afford a luxury car brand like BMW. Summer could tell if someone was a wealthy heir or a poor loser at a glance. She first noticed Marcus didn't have the vibes of a wealthy heir. That was when two men in suits and leather shoes stepped in. They had slicked their hair back. The two approached and asked Summer, "Can you recommend some decent car models?""Of course." Summer's expression instantly brightened as she led them toward the showroom. "Please follow me. Our dealership has recently brought out two new car models. Shall I show them to you?" "Wait right there!" Marcus stormed over to Summer and blocked their path. While pointing at the two, he questioned S
Marcus didn't respond to Jane. He turned and entered the Mercedes dealership instead."Did you guys see that?" Summer pointed at Marcus while laughing. "That broke guy is going to the Mercedes dealership to scam them again!"Jane smirked. "It'll take him less than a minute to be driven out of the dealership."A pretty saleswoman approached Marcus as soon as he entered the dealership. She greeted warmly, "Would you like to check out some cars, sir?" "Yes." He nodded.Learning his lesson from the incident that happened in that BMW dealership, he ignored her. He headed straight to the exhibition hall to check out the cars.To his surprise, she followed him and introduced warmly, "We have a lot of models for you to choose from, sir. Of course, feel free to look around as much as you like. It's not necessary to make a purchase."The saleswoman also poured him a cup of tea. The service was top-notch.Marcus pointed at a model, which appeared rather pleasing to his eyes. "How much
It wasn't easy to gather one hundred Mercedes Benz S-Class within such a short time. Fortunately, Edgar managed to return to the dealership in time to personally transfer the order.He pulled his strings, transferring cars over from Mercedez dealerships in other areas. Soon, he managed to fill ten trucks with one hundred Mercedes Benz S-Class. They were driven to his dealership from all directions. It was a rush.Even though Edgar did everything as quickly as possible, it took a whole three hours for those cars to arrive at the Mercedes dealership. In the meantime, Marcus was enjoying VVIP service."Mr. Coleman, our boss has ordered this dessert set worth five thousand dollars for you.""Mr. Coleman, you must be tired. Our boss hired these two professional therapists specifically for you. They'll be serving you during your wait.""Mr. Coleman, please allow me to massage your back for you.""Mr. Coleman, please allow me to massage your shoulders for you.""Mr. Coleman, plea
It ticked Raymond off when he noticed that the two ladies were still in a daze. "What are you standing there for? Apologize to Mr. Coleman this instant!" Summer and Jane hurriedly admitted their faults. "We're sorry, Mr. Coleman. We were wrong.""You were wrong? What did you do wrong? A poor loser like me—who needs to ask money from his mother-in-law to buy groceries—can't afford a BMW, right?" Marcus countered.Summer and Jane were feeling so embarrassed that they wished they could bury themselves right now.He was giving them back the mocking words they had previously hurled at him.He added, "Oh, scratch that. A poor loser like me doesn't have the right to set foot in your BMW dealership."With that, how could Raymond still possibly not know what kind of humiliation had Marcus received in his dealership?"Summer Zaleman, Jane Stout, you fools!" Raymond slapped them.He announced, "You're fired! You're forever on our blacklist! And that includes other BMW dealerships in ot
"According to my sources, he seems to have some kind of connection with the Colemans from the capital. But he suddenly disappeared one night six years ago, which led to Morpheus Corporation's instant downfall. It was then replaced by Rudd Corporation," Cherry recounted."It is him!" Marius exclaimed with regret. "At that time, I thought there was finally an ace in the business world in Northfort. I didn't expect him to fail before I could even speak to him. A hero's life is never easy, isn't it?""An ace? A hero?" She smirked. "If he had been that capable, he wouldn't have needed to keep a low profile for so many years and became a matrilocal son-in-law in the Lorimer family in Cromford. "All he receives is backlash! Grandpa, I think he's a very foxy person. He is yet to accept his failure, so he's trying to make a comeback by leveraging our influence!""You have a point, Cherry." Marius nodded in agreement. "Influential businessmen are never simple and naive. He must've been plot
"Oh, really?" Smiling, Marcus took out another stack of cash. "Don't worry. I won't disturb your guests during their stay.""Huh? I …" The receptionist's eyes lit up before he accepted the money. "It's Room No. 8404.""Thanks." Marus nodded."What are you thanking for?" The receptionist began to act dumb. "Did I say anything?"Marcus was pleased with his performance. "Nothing."He smiled faintly before walking about the hotel.Getting back into his car, he contacted Murray instantly. "You have one minute to hack into Gudapest Hotel's candid camera system. I need the live footage of this room right now."A lot of hackers were working for the Pantheon of the Drakon, so it was easy to hack into a hotel's candid camera system.Forget about a hotel, they could readily hack into the network system of Koel Triangle—Eagalia's military headquarters.No ordinary people could hide their secrets from the Pantheon of the Drakon.Murray texted Marcus within 30 seconds, "Sir, I've got the f
Sean nodded in agreement. "Exactly. Alan and the others really can't adapt. Why bring military rules into everything else?"Wallace glanced at Sean and said, "Of course, Marcus can earn my respect if he can demonstrate the strength that commands it."Sean shook his head. "I find that unlikely. Take the bet, for instance. If he can really break past the Colemans' gates a year from now, maybe we can respect him."Wallace sneered. "With just that? Does he even deserve our respect for that?"Breaking past the Colemans' gates is just the beginning."To earn our respect, he has to make it onto the Meranian Wolf List!""Meranian Wolf List?" Sean's eyes lit up.In the Meranian military, the Meranian Wolf List was a reflection of a soldier's strength. Those who made the list were undoubtedly individuals with exceptional powers. The higher the rank, the stronger the individual.Among the top 50 on the Meranian Wolf List were figures feared by enemy nations. Even Chief Commander Wal
Marcus and Vivian left.Alan and the others slumped in their seats and panted heavily. Alan's back was soaked in sweat.The others weren't faring much better. The air in the private room was thick with the scent of cold sweat.It took a good ten minutes before Alan finally spoke. "It truly defies my imagination! The bastard son despised by Mr. Coleman Senior has turned out to be Merania's guardian, the commander-in-chief!"Zakir nodded in agreement. "Mr. Coleman Senior was right. The commander-in-chief is indeed a member of the Colemans! It's ridiculous. Mr. Coleman Senior went to great lengths to uncover the commander-in-chief's true identity and background, not knowing that the commander-in-chief is his own son!""This matter must be kept absolutely confidential. Under no circumstances should we reveal the commander-in-chief's true identity to Mr. Coleman Senior. Otherwise, the five of us will not only ruin our future but may also spend the rest of our lives behind bars!" Al
Marcus, too, did not expect that the Colemans who invited him and Vivian to dinner would turn out to be these troublemakers. These guys clearly intended to cause trouble from the looks of it.Marcus glanced around the room and pretended to be puzzled by asking, "Are you planning to go against me?"Alan and the others got goosebumps upon hearing Marcus' question.Their palms were sweating uncontrollably.They were indeed planning to humiliate Marcus.However, they never expected Marcus to be the commander-in-chief!In addition to the Dragon Training Camp incident, Alan and the other four had already attempted to take action against Marcus for the second time. The fact that they had tried to target the commander-in-chief twice in a row made them feel fearful.Alan quickly realized the gravity of the situation. His head shook mechanically, and he hastily said, "No… No! The five of us just wanted to invite you and Mrs. Coleman to have a simple dinner!"Zakir even took the initi
After Alan hung up, Vivian went to talk to Marcus about what had just happened.Vivian said with a concerned look, "Marcus, I believe the Colemans don't have good intentions. I'm afraid that the reason they invited us to dinner all of a sudden is because...."Marcus smiled as if the situation didn't bother him. "Are you worried they might have ulterior motives? Don't worry. Let's just agree to their invitation. It's just dinner!"Vivian was speechless at Marcus' response. Those people were part of the Colemans.It was clear that they were targeting Marcus. And yet, he was deliberately walking into the lion's den.Although the Colemans held a prestigious position as the top ancient family in Merania, people without a certain status did not qualify to even hear about them. While pregnant, Vivian learned about the Colemans.She began to understand their formidable reputation, especially after learning about their glorious history.Thus, Vivian couldn't help but sigh at the lo
Shye exuded a murderous killing intent. "Yannis, come with me to the Yallops."Starting today, I, Shye Youd, will be stationed at the Yallops' door every day. I will beat anyone who dares to propose to Yolia to death."Yannis nodded and asked, "Understood, Mr. Youd. What about that bastard?"Shye grunted and said, "A man's revenge is never too late. Compared to Yolia, what does that bastard amount to?"Let's let him live for a while!"Since Shye started guarding the Yallops' door, the number of people coming to propose decreased. Shye chased them away before they could even enter the door.After all, Shye was the second-ranked bachelor in the capital, and no one dared to offend him.Just like that, Shye had guarded the Yallops' door for a month.Finally, the Yallops had peace.…Meanwhile, Marcus continued to spend his time with Vivian every day during the month. As for Jill, she was responsible for managing Phisteele Corporation and Tension Incorporated. Jill was a cap
This also highlighted that Marcus' realm far surpassed that of the Colemans, who claimed to be the top ancient family for a millennium. Alan and the others returned to their line respectfully.Marcus surveyed the group with a serious expression. "The technique I'm about to teach you is a special art of breathing. "Although it looks simple, mastering its essence will take at least a year. "Of course, as elite individuals carefully cultivated by your respective families, I believe you can grasp the basics in just a month."The excitement was evident on the faces of the individuals upon hearing what Marcus said. The commander-in-chief was personally teaching them a special art.It was a big opportunity for those eager to level up. After all, the commander-in-chief was all-powerful and mighty. Any technique he imparted to them was bound to lead to significant progress, even if it was the most basic one.Following that, Marcus began to teach them the special art of breathing.
The individuals all listened attentively as Marcus began his class. They appeared respectful and eager to learn. Marcus extended four fingers and said, "Before we officially start the lesson, I'd like to give you a lesson in morals. The name of this lesson shall be 'Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality.'"Marcus signaled Edwin and Leona to fetch a small blackboard. Marcus held the chalk and wrote the words, "Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality." His movements were powerful."Indeed, you all have what it takes to be proud due to your strengths, for you are all invincible in your respective regions. However, you came to Dragon Training Camp to seek breakthroughs and receive guidance at a higher level."Marcus surveyed the crowd and said, "But no matter how strong you all are, you should respect the instructor who guides you."Each of you is exceptionally intelligent. You should know that Chief Commander Wall would not send an incapable person or someone from
"Yes! He must prove himself. Otherwise, I'm not convinced!""He dares to disregard the Meranian Wolf List top 100. If he can actually demonstrate such abilities, I'll pretend I never heard those words!"As Alan spoke, the others responded in agreement.Chad added, "It might be difficult for him to surpass every member of the Meranian Wolf List top 100, but at least he should have the qualifications to be among them, right?"The group noticed that Marcus remained silent, and their arrogance increased.Zakir was amused. "What's the matter? Are you backing down? In life, you need to follow the rules and not spout nonsense! "Don't act all big if you don't have what it takes!"Just then, Marcus spoke up. "You've all misunderstood. I didn't respond immediately because I was considering how to demonstrate my strength."After all, weaklings like you have never witnessed a true spectacle."To Marcus, these individuals were nothing but weaklings. Despite being invincible in their res
Alan and the others heard what Marcus said, and a playful expression appeared on their faces.How dare this kid challenge them?Alan squinted and said, "You can be our instructor, but you'll have to display enough strength to convince us."You probably can't reach the level of Merania's Four Gunlords and Gary."But you should at least reach the level of the Eight Warriors, right?"The others looked on with a look of expectation.They all looked at Marcus with mocking eyes.Chad, who was on the side, said, "Alan, how about we set a standard for this kid? Only those recognized by the members of the Meranian Wolf List are qualified to be our instructor!""Right!" Alan agreed.Merania's Four Gunlords, Gary, and the Eight Warriors all occupied a place in the Meranian Wolf List.It could be said that the top 100 of the Meranian Wolf List gathered the strongest 100 soldiers in the Meranian military.Being honored on the Meranian Wolf List top 100 was the dream of every Meranian sol
