The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire Count Luther
Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into a month.Rockechilds Empire partnership with the United Kingdom of Niklauria became the most powerful collaboration in history. Within a month and three weeks, Rockechild empire's net worth grew from $140 trillion to an astonishing $580 trillion. As chairman of Rockechilds Empire with the highest shares, Moses' stake peaked far beyond expectations. His personal net worth was over $475 trillion. He was by far the wealthiest man alive. During this period, Moses quietly and slowly eroded Czar's power in the shadows. Through control of the king's vault, Moses had complete oversight of the military's funding—its salaries, supply chains, and provisions. Any general, officer, or soldier would have to answer to Rockechilds Empire for payment. Moses' endgame was still clear: to restore Elizabeth to the throne. On the other hand, Czar was too pleased with the trillions of dollars revenue pouring in to notice something was amiss. He threw
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire The Poisoned goblet
Moses pulled at his cigarette as he trimmed the tall hedges in the royal garden. The hedges gave Moses enough privacy to discuss with Yuri. Yuri, on one knee, narrated all she heard between Count Luther and Czar. Moses listened attentively in silence, his cigarette burning evenly on his lips. All this time, Yuri stayed in the house of Neptune like a ghost. She hides in the shadows, spying on everyone and keeping information flowing to Moses. She was the wall with ears around the palace. Moses dropped his cigarette on the ground and crushed it with his feet. “So they intend to poison Elizabeth and me, huh?” Moses said thoughtfully. “I anticipated this would happen, eventually. We need more time to gather enough supporters. We're this close.”Yuri glanced up at Moses. “Should I kill Count Luther? I would make it clean and faster.”Moses shook his head sharply. “No, Yuri. No bloodshed. We are going to win this without spilling a drop of blood.”Yuri smiled. “Then why don't you tu
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire Crown Queen
The crowd gasped in shock at Elizabeth's declaration. Czar and Luther recoiled back as if they were both struck by lightning. “It can't be,” Luther muttered under his breath. “You set us up?”Elizabeth faced the crowd, holding everyone's attention. “Tonight, I uncovered a plot to kill me and have my husband framed for it.”This caused the crowd to get angry, and they demanded to know who wanted to kill the Sun Princess. Elizabeth pointed at Czar and Luther. “These two orchestrated the whole thing. The king's cup bearer is pretending to be sick, so that I can take up his role.”It all made perfect sense to everyone, as the cup bearer was absent. Elizabeth's story carried enough weight to bury Czar. Czar glanced around frantically. He met a hundred eyes filled with resentment and disappointment.Elizabeth turned to Czar. “You exiled me four years ago because you were paranoid about losing the throne to me, even when I had no interest in it.”Elizabeth paused as her voice grew theatr
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire War
Moses spent three extra months in the United Kingdom of Niklauria. In those months, he got Elizabeth pregnant, strengthen the military and expanded the kingdom's economy. While Elizabeth served as the ruler of the United Kingdom of Niklauria, Moses pulled all the strings behind the curtains. He held more power than the queen, but Elizabeth didn't mind. She was pregnant with Moses' child. As long, as she bears an heir to the throne, she would keep her position as Queen. Besides, Moses wasn't interested in the throne. He just wanted control over the military and the king's gold vault. In those three months, Moses' personal net worth soured to over $500 Trillion. There was no stopping him. * * * * One morning, Moses received a disturbing email from his father. The twelve cities were at war with their aggressive northern neighbour, Barbary. The twelve cities and Barbary have been fighting for territory for years. But now, Barbary had enlarged its military and was making bold
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire The Bet
Moses met Harrington with a cold stare. “Shut up, Harrington.”Admiral Harrington reared his head back in shock as Moses' words hit him in the face. The other generals including Westminster were left speechless. Where did Moses' boldness come from?Blood rushed to Harrington’s face. Without warning, he scrambled up to Moses and slapped him across the face. “How dare you?” he roared. “I am the Admiral of the twelve cities' forces. You have a lot of nerve to talk to me that way.”The other generals joined in, raising their voices in anger. “Commander!” general Cartwright barked. “Take these two goats outside and make sure they are taught a bitter lesson. Have your men beat them black and blue!”As the commander prepared to move forward, Moses turned sharply to President Westminster. “Your excellency, if anyone here so much as touches me or my father,” Moses said coldly, “then you will have not just Barbary as your enemy, but another force coming for you. I'm not bluffing.”Westmins
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire The Barbary army defeat
At the northern frontier, Moses stood in front of the twelve cities’ ragged forces—barely 300 men—alongside generals. Despite the tension in the air, all eyes were fixed on Moses, waiting to see what this penniless son of the Doberman clan can do.The day before, Moses had sent Yuri to the enemy’s camp with a simple message for the Barbary War Leader, Viktor, the terrible. Yuri returned the next morning and relayed Viktor's response to Moses. “He said you should go to hell," Yuri said. “As a matter of fact, he is marching down to vanquish the remaining forces of the twelve cities and claim the country as his new empire.”Now, Moses waited for Viktor the terrible to show up.Behind Moses, the generals exchanged worried glances. They were doubtful and afraid of the inevitable. Soon enough, dust began to rise in the distance. The Barbary army has arrived. Noisy rumble of advancing war machines and the heavy trudge of thousands of feet filled the air. The Barbary army emerged—a da
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire The dance of shame
With the defeat of the Barbary army, the twelve cities were safe. Moses returned to Westminster, who gave him a hero's welcome. The generals and military officers were all assembled to celebrate and thank Moses for his contribution to the war. The hall echoed with applause as Moses and a handful of the Doberman clan entered.President Westminster stood at the head of the gathered generals, military officials, a bright smile spreading across his face.The army generals looked at Moses with renewed respect. Every atom of doubts they had about Moses had vanished like melted ice. Moses' single handed display of power humbled them. As Moses stood before the president, the room gradually fell silent. There were no cameras or media crew in the hall. This was a secret meeting which only consisted of the army and the president. Westminster spoke into the microphone. “Moses, on behalf of the twelve cities, I thank you. In our darkest hour, when hope was all lost, you saved us all. This
The Penniless Son-In-Law Is A Trillionaire The Northern Cities
In the following weeks, Umbrella International Bank gained significant momentum. After the war, the majority of the banks were unable to bounce back into business. But the Doberman clan was more active than any other. In a space of three months, umbrella International Bank's clients jumped to over five million customers– a remarkable feat. While the twelve cities were healing from the scars of the war, Moses was busy rebuilding homes for people, buying lands and estates and renting buildings. He was back in the real estate business. The northern cities have three cities which were badly damaged by the Barbary army. These cities were: Red-light district, The golden Bridge and Kensington. These were the only cities heavily affected by the war. Moses' goal was to support to rebuild these three cities thereby creating cheap housing for refugees affected by the war. With so much money, Moses felt it was only right he used his wealth for the greater good by helping people. And wh

First encounter
“Watch where you’re going!” the boy rasped angrily, brushing imaginary dust off his shoulder. “Peasant. Are you blind?”Moses frowned as he scanned the boy, taking in the fine embroidery of his suit and the two guards from the House of Neptune. There was no doubt about it. This boy right here was Moses' second son. Benjamin, taken aback, raised his hands apologetically. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to—” But before he could finish, Moses stepped forward, his tone firm. “No, Benjamin. There’s no need to apologize. It was an accident.” This was Moses' first encounter with his second son and he already hated the boy's attitude. The boy raised an eyebrow, a smirk curling on his lips. “Do you know who I am?” His voice was laced with arrogance. “I am Prince Curtis, the rightful heir to the throne of the United Kingdom Of Niklauria. You'll speak to me with respect.” Before Benjamin could respond, one of Curtis’s guards stiffened visibly, his eyes locking on Moses. He leaned toward Curtis an
The Crown of Dominion
Moses private jet took off from North hills."Have you heard about the Crown of Dominion?" Moses asked Benjamin. Benjamin was seated opposite his father. He shook his head. "I don't know anything about it."Moses activated his Halo phone which displayed a holographic description of the crown. "It's an ancient artifact which is believed to have been forged by the gods," Moses explained. "Forged by the gods?" Benjamin looked bored. "Is this one of those folklore stories?"Moses continued as if he didn't hear him. "According to legend, the crown grants its wielder unmatched charisma and the ability to command absolute loyalty from armies. It can also inspire fear or reverence in anyone who beholds it."Benjamin supported his jaw on his hand. "So it's a myth. What's this got to do with my ascension to kinghood?""Plenty," Moses answered. "This crown is the cheat code to our victory. However, we're not the only ones interested in it."Benjamin raised his eyebrow. "Let me take a wild gue
Secret Twin
Benjamin stared at his father as if he just said the stupidest thing ever. “You want me to overthrow my mother?” Benjamin stood to his feet. “Why should I do that?”Moses leaned back in his chair and stared heavenwards. “Well, the House of Neptune is conspiring to dethrone your mom and replace her with a new king.”Moses paused to look Benjamin directly in his eyes. “Your mother was a smart woman. Too smart. Last week, she revealed to me that you had a secret twin brother.”Benjamin stiffened in shock. “M-my twin?”“You're not identical,” Moses noted. “You're both fraternal twins. Actually, after Elizabeth put to birth, she hid your twin brother while she handed you over to me to raise.”Moses explained the agreement he made with Elizabeth years ago after he agreed to raise Benjamin by himself. By the time Moses was done talking, Benjamin was speechless. He dropped back into his seat, but no words came out of his mouth. Moses sighed in exasperation. “I know it's a shocker, son. Sh
The truth
Moses turned to face the gathered crowd of parents, schoolteachers, and Principal Armstrong. He spread his arms wide and addressed them loud and clear. “Ladies and gentlemen,” he began. “Let me remind you of the terms of our little bet. If I win, all of you—the parents, the teachers, and even Principal Armstrong—will grovel and apologize to me. Thereafter, I will consider funding the school project.” The hall remained still and silent.Everyone remembered the wager, but not many were prepared to grovel before Moses. Principal Armstrong cleared his throat and stepped forward. “Mr. Doberman, if I may. This isn’t necessary. On behalf of everybody here, I sincerely apologize for any offense caused. There’s no need for anyone to grovel.” Moses’s expression darkened, his glare sharp enough to cut stone. He turned his gaze on Armstrong with pure disgust. “Who made you the speaker for everyone here?” Moses snapped, his voice rising. “If you have nothing meaningful to say, then shut
Setting appointments
Another man, a teacher, stood to his feet. “For the second challenge, if I may. Can we step away from money? Let's see who among the both of you has the most influence.”August turned to him, intrigued. “That's interesting. What's the details of this challenge?”The teacher stepped out, an excited look in his eyes. “The challenge is simple: both parties must secure a meeting with the CEO of Graham Incorporated right here and now. The winner would be the one who Reggie Graham sets an appointment for.”Everyone exchanged glances. This challenge was good. Graham incorporated was the world leading tech company, known for its bestselling Halo Phones.Graham Incorporated had developed a reputation for rejecting partnerships from even the wealthiest tech corporations. Their CEO, Reggie Graham, rarely entertained meetings, let alone signed deals.Whoever could set an appointment with him would be a man with strong connections. Moses smirked. “Fascinating. I like this one. Let's do it.”Sti
The painting
Mr. Leclerc wanted to stop the Marksman but decided against it. “These fools,” he cried inwardly. “They do not know who they're dealing with. If only they knew they wouldn't dare to challenge him.”But there was nothing Leclerc could do. The challenge had been set. If he butts his head in, he would be dealing with Moses Doberman directly. All Leclerc could do was seat and watch. August started. “We'll let the teachers and parents dish out the challenge. Three challenges. Winner would be determined by who successfully does all three challenges without a hitch.”Moses shrugged. “Fine by me. So what's going to be our first challenge?”A tall man with salt-and-pepper hair stepped forward from the crowd. He adjusted his glasses and cleared his throat. “If I may,” he began, his voice filled with pride, “I am a dealer in fine art, and I happen to have a painting in my possession—a masterpiece valued at $10 million.”“It's a rare piece, painted by a reclusive artist whose works are sought
The Marksmans
The room was buzzed with murmurs after Moses declared he would fund the entire project. Many parents exchanged glances as they were curious to know who this new man was. Principal Armstrong cleared his throat and looked directly at Moses. He wore a skeptical expression on his face that told anyone he wasn't buying Moses' words. "Sir," Armstrong began, "May I ask, who are you?" Moses leaned back in his chair, wearing a deadpan expression on his face. "It doesn't matter who I am. It's not relevant, but if it satisfies your curiosity, I’m Moses Doberman, Benjamin Doberman’s father." A ripple of laughter broke out among the teachers who were present at the meeting. One of the teachers, Benjamin's chemistry teacher, chuckled loudly, shaking his head. "Ah, so you're Benjamin's father," the teacher said. "No doubt your son is intelligent, Mr. Doberman, but let’s be realistic here. You’re a C-Ranker, aren’t you? Let’s not make promises you can’t keep. Stay humble." The parents al
The PTA meeting
"I didn’t mean any harm," Lucas continued, his voice cracking. "Please, Benjamin, spare me. Spare my father."Benjamin sighed. "Get me out of this thing first."The room was filled with tension as the goons hurriedly released Benjamin from the ropes. They were also scared of Benjamin after hearing his true identity. "Just so you know," Benjamin said, nursing his wrists after being freed. "I already knew you guys were spying on me."Lucas approached Benjamin, swallowing hard. "How could you know about us spying on you? You... you were always alone."Benjamin’s smirk widened. "You think I wouldn’t notice your pathetic attempts at surveillance? I have my own spies—ones you would never see coming. They’ve been shadowing you this entire time."The colour drained from Bruce’s face. "W-What do you mean?"Benjamin leaned forward slightly, his tone low and cold. "There are assassins in this warehouse as we speak. Deadly, silent, and loyal only to me. They’ve been here since before you arriv
Groveling
Lucas was surprised at Benjamin's honesty. "Interesting," Lucas said, clearing his throat. "And just when I thought you would deny it.""Why should I deny anything?" Benjamin asked. "I'm the reason why the Willows and the Lawrence family are ruined. Got your answer now?"Lucas couldn't believe his eyes. He never expected Benjamin to admit the rumours about him. "This is an unexpected turn of events," Lucas said, sighing. "Alright, guys you can come out now."At his command, Bruce and Grant emerged out of the darkness along with two other S-Rank students. Clara was absent. She didn't want to be part of this anymore. Bruce glared down at Benjamin, cracking his knuckles. "So you finally, admit it. Big mistake. I'm going to pulverise you until no one recognises you."Benjamin rolled his eyes. "You seem to forget that I never cause any harm to anyone who doesn't cause harm to me. You and your girlfriend hit me. So I retaliated.""You destroyed the Willows family," Grant barked. "How cr
