As soon as Oscar arrived at the banquet room, he scanned every inch and corner with his sharp eyes.

There were about sixteen youths present, each dressed so extravagently that it gave away their identies as youg richies.

"Erm? What's she doing here?" his brows jumped when he saw that Deliahah was present, and seated at the head of the table nothenless.

"Aren't you sloppy Goldie. Today is Deliah and Hela's birthday. Yet, you show them disrespect by arriving at such a time" a girl amongst the gathering snorted, trying to incite trouble on Goldie.

Her name was Cindy Howard, the daughter of a powerful business tycoon in another city.

"Tch. You are still noisy as ever, Cindy" Goldie clicked her tongue.

"You bitch!" Cindy's nose flared, looking like she so much wanted to tear Goldie apart.

"Relax Cindy, it might be because of traffic" a handsome guy in the gathering laughed in Goldie's defense.

"Yeah. I'm sure it's due to traffic"

"Yeah. Just let it rest"

"You shouldn't make big th

    "He wasn't lying. That jewelry is ordinary because its a fake" Oscar's declaration was like a bomb. Many in the banquet were stunned silly. "Fake? what are you talking about?" Bruce questioned sharply with an ugly frown. "Your jewelry of course. Although the lace is crafted out of top quality diamond, the Toronite is a fake. Real Toronites ar spirit items. But I can hardly sense any spirituality from this one" Oscar smirked as he calmly explained. Thanks to his Mind power at the Septima rank, his senses were sharpened. Not to mention that he was now a Divine Physician, so he could determine if an herb was fake or legit. Herbs were spirit items in a way, so that made him able to tell that the Toronite was a fake. "Hmph. Can't sense spirituality from it? Who do you think you are? A Divine Physician?" Bruce scorned. "As a matter of fact, I am" Oscar replied. Pft! Almost everybody in the banquet room burst into a fit of laughter, except Elsa, Goldie and Deliah."You said you are a

    Some minutes later, some of the hotel staffs brought a batch of herbs over to the room where the birthday was being hosted. After picking the herbs they requested, the two competitors laid them on their seperate tables. Clearing her throat, Deliah spoke up. "The rules of the competition is very simple. You both are going to refine a poison each. After tasting your opponent's poison. If you fail to refine an antidote to the poison, that counts as your loss" "This will be a piece of cake" Hela grinned smugly, picking up a herb. Slowly, she began dicing it up. The movements of her fingers were exquisite. Coupled with her pursed lips and furrowed brows, it was a tantalizing image to behold. "Hela is like a fairy when she refines medecine" "Yeah. Not only is she a top class beauty, she's also talented in the art of medecine. Whoever gets to marry her is sure to be the luckiest man on earth" Many of the males present were not stingy in their compliments."What's that guy doing?" some

    "D-Dating?" Oscar was taken aback by Goldie's sudden question. "You heard me. Are you dating Elsa?" "Geez, what brought about this strange question anyway?" Oscar replied with a question of his own, staring at Goldie strangely. "Hmph. I just wanted to confirm something. That bitch Elsa always loves stealing my stuff" Goldie pouted, appearing like a fraustrated young miss. "Y-Your stuff?" Oscar repeated gobsmacked. Young lady, when did I become your stuff? "Well, I barely know Elsa that much. So, what do you think?" Oscar shrugged. "I don't believe you" Goldie shook her head stubbornly. "Back at the banquet, she was your number one supporter and the one who believed you were going to win against Hela. How can she have so much confidence in somebody she doesn't know?" "Hmph. I may not look like it but I'm pretty smart. You can't fool me Oscar!" Goldie snorted, appearing displeased. "Don't tell me you are feeling jelous?" Oscar flashed her a teasing smile."Jealous?!"

    "Its Sunday, " Oscar hummed as he chugged down a piece of waffles laced with yummy syrup. "Hm. " the Jamie Brothers replied, their mouths stuffed with the food they were eating. Currently the Trio were at the dining table, eating breakfast. "Did you manage to accomplish what I asked yesterday?" Oscar asked Trunks who nodded affirmatively. "Right now all the Gang Leaders in Silver Haven are aware of Mr. Murrock's death" "But isn't that a bad idea?" Trumps cut in with a frown. "If you had just kept the news to yourself you could've slowly enroached all of Mr. Laufey's territory. But by releasing the news aren't you just throwing in a magnet to attract more competitors? plus another gang war is bound to break out due to this move you my made" Trumps frowned. " You are not wrong. However I have my reasons for releasing the news. Although Mr. Murrock was often regarded as the King Pin of Silver Haven, there exists some people who don't really care about him, meaning although he wa

    "Uhm Sir, is everything alright?" The Head Of Security couldn't resist asking when he noticed that Oscar was taking too much time to bring out the membership card to falsify Laura's claim."Erm. I think I forgot to bring it with me today" he scratched his head with an embarrassed smile."Tsk. What a lousy excuse" Laura scoffed."Hmph. Although this past weeks, you surprised me by being the School's Shoot Guard in the basket ball club but that's that. So what if you have some lousy basketball skills and can fight? that doesn't changes the fact that you are a loser who can't afford to dine in the same Restaurant as Henry. Hmph, choosing him over you was the best decision I've ever made" Laura beamed with pride as she spared bi chance to show off."Young Man, do you know the weight of the crime you just committed? do you know that I can sue you to court for shoplifting?" the Head of Security threatened Oscar with an unkind expression.His sudden change in attitude surprised Oscar."Sue m

    "Sigh, so this is Purple Cloud Groove?" Charles Rocks sighed as he scruntized the sky rising office building. Besides him were some architects from his company. They were here to inspect the building and see what parts needed renovations. "So?" Trumps who stood beside them raised his brows. "Judging from the reports my employees gave to me, the renovation won't be that heavy" Mr. Chris replied. "The foundation is quite solid. However, the latter parts of the building construction seemed to be rushed. Give it two more years and I'm afraid it would crumble. It would seem that the engineer who you gave this job to seemed to either be rushing things, or didn't put much efforts in the construction " Mr. Chris gave Trumps a knowing look. "Tch" Trump's nose twitched because he couldn't find any faults in Mr. Chris judgement. "So, what is your price?" he asked. This was the important factor. "Uhm...Our standard price for renovation per sq.ft is $500.. from my judgement, approximately

    "Hey girl~" "What took you so long? For a moment I thought you were not going to show up" Goldie had just gotten out from her car when two of her female friends bombarded her with questions. They looked to be around the same age as her and were dressed in classy dresses. "Sorry for the delays. Oscar, come say hello to my friends " she waved at Oscar who was still inside the car "You brought a guy?" one of Goldie's female friend stared at her in slight surprise. Her name was Lizzy. "I know that this was supposed to be a ladies shopping spree, but I figured the shopping bags would be too heavy,that's why I brought an helping hand " Goldie winked at her friends. "Wtf!!" Oscar felt like vomiting blood when he heard Goldie's scheme. — Hey! Didn't you say you were going to make things up for me??!!! Just then, a Yamaha bike pulled over in front of the ladies. Stepping down, the bike rider removed their helmet, revealing a beautiful visage. "Elsa?" Goldie was ta taken aback.

    "Oscar, what do you think of this dress? Does it look good on me?" "How about this skirt?" "Can you help me loosen the strap at my back please?".Goldie balled her fist as she watched the lovey dovey display of Elsa and Oscar inside the boutique. "Hey Goldie, does Elsa know that friend of yours?" Jess asked as she approached Goldie, holding two fancy shopping bags. "Yeah. Elsa's behavior is strange today. Its like she's familiar with that guy " Lizzy chipped in. "You can say something like that " Goldie replied with a grim expression. She so much wanted to match over and drag Oscar away from Elsa's claws. However she felt that would make her appear like a petty person. Not to mention that she and Oscar were not dating. Whoever he chose to socialize with was none of her business. Tch. But even though that was what she was thinking, she was inwardly seething... Twenty minutes later, the four ladies finally finished their shopping. Walking out of the boutique, Elsa intentio

    "I'll speak with you later on a zoom" Oscar said as he was escorted out from the office building of Wu Republic Media by Madame Wura. However Madame Wura currently had a wide grin plastered on her beautiful face as she addressed Oscar respectfully while leading him out. "Uhm Mr. Oscar, it would seem that your chauffeur is yet to arrive?" Madame Wura commented as she casted her sharp gaze around, however she didn't see any exotic car parked at the garage, except for her sedan. "I'll prefer to walk" Oscar smiled as he attempted to take his leave. How could Madame Wura miss out from such a good opportunity?! "How can I let you do that!" she shook her head vehemently, appearing like she was the one about to do the trekking and not Oscar. "What do you mean?" Oscar gave her a knowing look as a smirk appeared on his cheeks. He could already more or less figure what she was about to do. "I am just trying to look out for you. The sun is currently scorching hot. For a young and hands

    "So what was your reason for coming?" After about ten minutes, Oscar eventually managed to convince Madame Wura that he wasn't a member of the Rising Krillin Mansion, and neither was he acting on their behalf. "Due to the earlier misunderstanding, I didn't get to introduce myself" Oscar didn't answer her question right away. "My name is Oscar and I am the CEO of Mo Bucks Inc" he introduced himself. "Mo Bucks Inc? excluding the fact that the name sounds lame and childish, I don't recall ever hearing about that kind of Company even among the list of third tier companies in this city" Oscar pinched his brows.. "You don't have to be so blunt about it. I newly created the company which is why you haven't heard of it. But trust me it's going to be the main topic on everyone's lips in time to come" Oscar had a confident smile on his face as he said this. Unfortunately, Madame Wura didn't take his words seriously, taking it as a teenager just spewing rubbish. "You still haven't

    "What happened here?" the security man at the lead asked Laura and her companions, prioritizing them because they were females. "Him!" Laura who had just finished speaking with the police, pointed her manicured fingers at Oscar. "He's a murderer! look what he did to Mr. Patrick!" Hearing Laura's claims, the Security Guard finally turned towards the direction where her finger was pointed at. On seeing the unmoving body of a certain pot bellied individual, his pupils dilated in horror, causing him to be unable to form any coherent word. "Tch. What are you waiting for!" Laura snapped with a angry hiss. "Beat up this criminal before he tries escaping! I just called the Police and they are on their way right now!" she urged. "R-Right!" the head of the security guards finally regained his composure Turning towards his subordinates, he swiftly ordered them to grab Oscar. Much to Laura's surprise, Oscar didn't resist in anyway. "A-Aren't you scared?" she stared at him strangely.

    "I'm sorry miss. But my young master requests your presence" the culprit pointed towards the direction of a stationary Bugatti. "Your young master?" Oscar didn't know why, but his tone became unfriendly. "My young master is Young Master Kings... Tommy Kings!" "Tommy Kings?" Oscar frowned. "Why would he want to meet up with her? does he know her from somewhere?" Oscar questioned the messenger who only frowned with displeasure. "And who the fvck are you huh?" the messenger sized up Oscar with a haughty gaze. "I was speaking to the lady. Who are you to butt in huh?" "You sure act cocky for a mere underling" Oscar was flabbergasted at the other party's attitude. This was his first time coming across such an arrogant subordinate. "You bastard! do you know who my young master is huh?!" the messenger flared up. "Yeah. I know. But I don't know who the fvck you are!" Oscar grinned, causing the face of the Messenger to turn beet red from the embarrassment. "You bastard!" "That's en

    Just when everybody thought that the Wills family were the winners of the bid, a sharp voice spoke out at that moment. "Fifty Million" Instantly, everyone's gaze fell on Oscar, since he was the one who had spoken up. "Who is that young man?" "I don't remember seeing him in the past?" "What family heir is he!" "To think he bid that much. Is he trying to challenge the Wills family?" All of those present were mainly the big shots of Silver Haven. As such, they couldn't recognize Oscar. "Oscar, what are you doing!" Goldie's heart almost leapt out from her chest as she heard Oscar call out his bid. "It's okay" Oscar flashed her a reassuring smile. Naturally, their small exchange didn't escape the notice of those present at the City Council Parley. "So he's with those from the Rising Krillin Manson huh?" Many of those present instantly recognized Goldie. Mr. Martins was a well established business tycoon in the city after all. His Cement Manufacturing Company was ranked at

    "Looks like we are all present. Then let the event start" At a large round table within Silver Haven's City Hall, the top personas in the city were all gathered together. These important personas were either top business tycoons, politicians or Patriarchs and Matriarchs of the City's leading families. These were people who were regarded as phoenixes and dragons in the hearts of the common people, due to the amount of power and status they possessed The one who had just announced the start of the City Council Parley was an elderly man clad in well designed black suit with glasses positioned at the bridge of his nose. This man was Mr. Jared Crackers, the City Mayor. He wasn't a member of any of the top families of the city but was actually an outsider who was appointed by the government. Seated besides him was young man who had a look of arrogance on his expression. Judging by his expensive attire and the fact that he was seated besides the Mayor of the City, he wasn't a random

    Silver Haven City Hall was a large building structure, stationed at the heart of the bustling city. Usually, this building hardly had any visitors, but on this particular day, it was different. Currently, the premises of the City Hall was bustling with activity as the most important people in the city arrived one after the others, riding expensive and luxury vehicles.. Although Sandy's limo was an expensive automobile that was sure to attract attention on any road she drove on, it looked completely normal in the face of the fleets of expensive cars at the parking lot of the City Hall. "So many?!" Oscar was nearly blinded by the sheer amount of luxury cars before his eyes. Silver Haven was a large city and although he had kind of anticipated such a scene, he was still left reeling in shock and surprise. "We should go. The event would be happening in the next five minutes" Sandy's chauffeur opened the doors for them as they alighted down. Casting his eyes over the City Hall, Os

    "So this is the office building of your company" amazement was plastered on Johnny's face as he gazed at the sky rising building structure of Cloud Peach Grove. Besides him was Sandy, Oscar and Trunks. It was currently at the peak of noon. Currently, there was a fleet of delivery vehicles with their staffs offloading various equipments like chairs, laptops, tables, etc into the office building. "Let me give you a tour around the company building. This is going to be you guys workplace in the future , so it's best you familiarize yourself with the environment" Trunks suggested to the two new comers. After they left, Oscar's phone suddenly rang. "Hm?" he was slightly taken aback when he saw that the caller was Goldie. "Hello?" he immediately picked up the call. "Oscar, where are you? please tell me you are back in the city?" Goldie's anxious voice rang from the end. She was one of the few people aware of Oscar's trip to Ethos Hills.
