The Rainbow Palace was a billion-dollar structure built by the government four years back due to the resurgence in E-Sports brought about by Zero's amazing exploits in the gaming world. It had caused Metro City as a whole to become a tourist hub for gamers as they came in numbers to gaze upon the one known simply as Zero.Of course, after Zero's unfortunate imprisonment, tourist numbers had dwindled until it was almost non-existent causing it to become a massive problem for the government as it took quite a lot to maintain the structure.Due to this, the government had placed it up for auction which Mega Sports had won with help from Gen X, resulting in both companies becoming caretakers for the place.Considering the upcoming competition which was to decide the city's representative for the national championship, Mr. Brewster, owner of Gen-X along with Mr. Kishimoto, owner of Mega Sports, decided to use the opportunity to once again reopen the palace.Naturally, this caused a buzz i

It had always been like that since they knew each other.Kieran has chased while Kiara always rejected him, but that didn't stop the former as he relentlessly pursued her.He couldn't understand why.As the heir to the Sloan family, Kieran had it all.Money, looks, and power.He lacked nothing and wasn't afraid to show it, yet for some reason Kiara always rejected him.It got even worse after she learned about Zero as Kiara fell hopelessly in love with the man called Zero, to the extent that she abandoned everything to become a gamer.Now as a gamer who wasn't supported by her family's wealth, Kieran thought he would be able to finally get a chance to make Kiara his woman but how wrong he was.Even now she rejected him and that made him lose it.“What does he have that I don't?” Kiera questioned, unable to hold back any longer.At this point, their conversation has drawn the attention of quite a few with a journalist already taking notes at a corner. Aware that if she left him to con

Kieran didn't even know what to say as he watched Ethan beckon for one of the agents accompanying him to step forward with a briefcase.The agent casually opened it, revealing the bundles of cash inside causing Kiera to go red with anger as he cursed.“What the hell are you doing walking around with such a huge amount of money!?”Ethan grinned. “To put fools like you in their place.”“Damn you!... Do you think you are anything compared to my Sloan family?... I'll tell you now, no matter what you are worth, Sloan Inc. is greater than it. So you'd best watch yourself else you might find yourself losing the companies you are so proud about.”Ethan let out a sigh as it was clear that Kieran had no sense of when to take a step back.He was making a fool of himself at this point but unfortunately, his pride made him unable to see that.Since Kieran decided not to back down, Ethan was more than happy to put him in his place.“You keep on talking about Sloan Inc. when it isn't assured that yo

Mr. Brewster didn't mention the amount that would be needed for the person in third place to contribute to complete the amount sufficient to sponsor the competition.Naturally, he also didn't mention the profits that would be reaped from the process either.Initially, he'd thought he and Kishimoto would be able to handle the situation but the meat turned out to be a bit too big for only them to handle.So naturally, they needed someone else to join the feast else the meat would end up going to waste which was not an ideal scenario.With that in mind, they decided to utilize the standard of an auction to select the third sponsor to make things fair for everyone involved.So only those who were capable would be able to clinch the spot.“All those interested should be please step forward and get into this platform. We shall begin the selection process shortly.” Mr. Brewster calmly intoned while gesturing to a rising platform which quickly became the center of attention.It seemed large e

Ethan's actions sent ripples throughout the audience as no one expected him to be so vulgar with his words, especially when his opponents were people of substance.“Oh wow, it seems we have been a bit too lenient with you, right?... Fine then, since you have decided to constitute a nuisance, we'd be more than happy to teach you a valuable lesson. Next time, you won't dare to do something so foolish.”“I hear you talking, but still no attempt to contest my bid,” Ethan remarked in a tone that left his opponents reeling as they glared at him.One of them on the platform scoffed. “Do you think that we'd believe that you have such an amount of money to spend?... Or are you planning on selling one of the companies you somehow managed to purchase.” “How I gained the money is none of your concern. What you should be worrying about is if you can bid higher, if not, I’d say it again, shut the hell up.”Naturally, the one that spoke didn't have such an outrageous amount to contest with Ethan an

“Don't try to scare me, I can see right through your pathetic little ploy. Mr. Brewster, I ask that you disqualify this scammer for daring to disrupt the audience and have him kicked out promptly so he doesn't cause further problems after which we can restart the selection process with people that are willing to participate and not mess around with silly games.”“Hmm, Miss Brown, I hope you understand that your accusations are without basis. If we do not prove that Mr. Ghost has done something unethical, then acting against him would be against my principles.”“Fine then, how about this. If he can pay the 8 billion dollars he mentioned, then I'd be more than happy to relinquish the title as winner of this process. If not, then I ask that he be humiliated for trying to mess around with us.”At this point, most in the audience had begun to agree with Stacy as they felt it highly suspicious that Ethan never showed any proof that he had the money that he was calling so wantonly.“Does he

The audience went into an uproar upon hearing what Kishimoto had to say.“Does this mean this Mr. Ghost is not a scammer?”“Are you dumb or you just can't hear well?... Didn't you hear what Mr. Kishimoto said?”“Doesn't this mean he is on an even greater level than Mega Sports and Gen-X?”“But he isn't involved in E-Sports, right?”“Does it matter?... It's clear he has plans of investing if not why would he get involved with the Ice Queen and now plan to sponsor almost fifty percent of the total expenditure for the competition.”At this point, even those who were unwilling had to accept that Ethan was not a simple man.Stacy was among them as she cursed inwardly, realizing that from the beginning there was no hope of winning.If only she had not been so aggressive, she wouldn't be forced to swallow a defeat so bitter.Naturally, the others who were with her didn't hesitate to place all the blame on her despite egging her on in the first place.Since a scapegoat was needed, she was the

Only after Mr. Kishimoto stepped forward and helped him out was he able to get a breather but even then, it didn't stop Mr. Kishimoto from also revealing his desire to be closely acquainted with him.Once upon a time, Mega Sports was like a dream to Ethan but now, he was seated at the same table as the owner.By the time he left, Ethan was aware of the names of Mr. Kishimoto's two daughters as well as their professions.“Are you alright?” Kiara inquired in slight amusement upon seeing Ethan's exhausted face.Ethan snorted. “What do you think?”“Mr. Kishimoto seems to want you as a son-in-law.” Kiara teased further with Ethan letting out a tired groan.“Please don't remind me. Aren't we in the modern era?... Why the hell is he still playing matchmaker.”Kiara chuckled. “Well, you are successful and quite handsome, as well as being young and having amazing vision. I doubt his daughters would be averse to the thought of being with you if they don't already have other commitments.”“Reall
