On December 19th, the infinite castle was finally completed. Moses stood at the rooftop of the colossal building, wearing a black trench coat which billowed in the breeze. This massive structure was the biggest resort in the twelve cities and the most luxurious. Moses felt an inward fulfillment. He had achieved his two goals: he defeated the MOMO family and saved his clan from poverty. The wind tousled his hair as Moses inhaled a deep breath. “I owe Gwen a Christmas gift for building such a magnificent hotel,” Moses thought to himself. “I'll surprise her this Christmas.”Moses turned to Yuri, who stood behind him. “Come with me, Yuri. You and I are going somewhere.”Yuri and Moses took the train and headed for the upper district of the South. During their trip, Yuri noticed Moses was awfully quiet. “What are you thinking about, master?” Yuri asked. Moses glanced heavenwards. “Nothing serious. I'm just wondering what to do next.”Yuri cocked her head. “What to do next? Were you
The manager was taken aback by Moses demands. “You want a BMW in two days? That would cost a lot of money. Moreover, I can't just fire my employee without a reason.”“Oh I have a reason,” Moses pointed at the sales attendant. “This fool was trying to brush me off by showing me low-tier cars. He thought, I cannot afford a BMW. Such poor customer service doesn't seat right with me. I want him out.”The manager turned to the sales attendant. “Is this true?”“I mean look at him, sir,” the sales attendant waved at Moses. “He's so shabbily dressed. There's no way he could afford $380,000 for a BMW.”The manager could understand the sales attendant's judgement. Even he didn't believe Moses has that kind of money by the mere looks of him. “If you can pay off the money up front, then I'll carry out your request,” the manager spoke to Moses. Moses brought out a debit card. “I don't carry cash around with me, so I'm going to pay using my card.”The manager snapped his finger at the sales att
Moses' retaliation surprised everyone. No one thought he would hit Joan back. “You dare lay your dirty hands on me?” Joan spat, his cheek stinging from the slap. “Unbelievable,” Julia ranted. “It appears you have a death wish, Moses. The Butlers would ruin your life.”Moses smirked. “The butlers don't scare me. They're nowhere close to the money and influence I have at my disposal.”“I'm calling my family right now,” Joan feverishly fished out his phone. “You'll regret doing that to me, Moses. Your bank would crumble to the ground.”“Yes, Joan, show him no mercy,” Julia urged him on. “Make him suffer like how he made my father suffered.”The manager turned angrily to Moses. “I don't know who you are, sir, but I demand you apologize to Mr. Joan here or else I'll kick you out of my showroom. I don't want any trouble.”Moses glared at the manager. “I don't see you saying anything after that bitch slapped me. Stay out of this and keep your mouth shut.”The manager shivered at the chilli
"That blasted piece of crap!" Joan groaned in pain as Julia helped him to his feet. "I'll fix him. I swear it."Moses was long gone. He left with Yuri immediately after the manager fired the sales attendant. Julia dialed the emergency line. "Hello, we need medical help right now. My husband was attacked."Joan barked at the manager. "You idiot. How dare you defy my orders and sell to Moses when I told you not to?"The manager wrinkled his nose in disgust. "You saw what he did to you. I wouldn't want the same thing happening to me. More importantly, he paid good money for his BMW. It's only right that I satisfy my customer.""You mad fool!" Joan yelled. "You're just as foolish as Moses. No matter, you'll both meet the same fate after my family is done with you."Suddenly, a phone buzzed in Joan's pocket. "Julia, help me with my phone," Joan called frantically at her. "That must be my father calling."Julia hurriedly brought out Joan's phone. "It is your father, darling.""Hurry and a
Moses glanced around, confused at what was happening. This was unexpected. No one saw it coming. However, Moses remained calm and fearless. He noticed these military men were not hostile towards him and his clansmen. The door to one of the SUVs opened and a young man in a white suit stepped out of the rear door. This man seemed to be in his early twenties, with a handsome face that a K-pop star would be proud to flex. He stood before Moses and eyed him up and down. Moses held this young man's gaze for the longest moment. He didn't flinch a bit. “Who are you? And what do you want?” Moses asked, his voice deep and unflattering. The young man smiled. “I was told Moses Doberman was a penniless loser, but by mere looking at you, I can tell those rumours aren't true.”Moses folded his arms. “That doesn't answer my question. This is the Doberman's residence. You're on our turf without invitation, which is very disrespectful. State your business.”“My name is Alexander,” the young ma
Alexander stiffened in shock. “Y-you… You declined? Why?”Moses sighed. “To be honest with you, I really don't want to get mixed up in this whole royal family drama. I like peace.”“But I wasn't asking you to do anything. All I want is to meet with the Big Boss and give him my offer,” Alexander said breathlessly. Moses shook his head. “I don't think the Big Boss would be interested in aiding your princess to overthrow anyone. He's a business person and that's all there is to him.”“I understand that,” Alexander tried not to sound desperate. “We only require his financial backing. He needn't go to war with anybody.”Moses regarded Alexander closely. “And what if your princess fails to regain the throne? What would happen to her if this operation blows over, and she loses to her brother?”Alexander clenched his jaws. “We would rather not discourage our hearts with the consequences. We're simply taking actions as it deem necessary.”“That's the problem,” Moses yawned, stretching his bac
The Underground Slave auction was held in secret. Even in modern times, slave trade was still carried out. However, with the abolishment of slave trade today, slave auctions were held in secret and attended by elite families. It was dusk, and the auction was about to begin. Moses, Yuri, and Alexander were granted entry into the dimly lit underground auction hall. Now, in order to conceal their identity, everyone wore animal masks, making it nearly impossible to distinguish who belonged to which family. The masks served as a symbol of power and intimidation to its wearers. Each of the families were called by their beast masks, ensuring their anonymity. Moses and Yuri and Alexander entered the hall putting on Doberman pinscher masks.It costs Moses $5 million to purchase a gateway fee and these masks to gain entrance into the auction. Moses didn't think much about the money. He was here to rescue the Sun Princess afterall. The trio strolled to their seats and sat down without
“$10 billion,” Moses declared. All eyes turned sharply to Moses. Everybody was speechless. The three powerful families never thought there was someone in the crowd with more money than they could spend. The host's voice shook as he announced. “Sold to the Dog's group.”Moses stood up. “Let's get out of here, guys.”Alexander and Yuri followed Moses as they went behind the stage. Moses had a sick feeling all eyes were on him, wondering who he was and how much money he had to be able to beat the Fox family. * * * * A beefy security guard escorted Moses to the back of the room of the underground auction. It was a cold and damp chamber, lit by low lighting. The slave dealer appeared out of a second door. He wore a goat mask and swung a cane in his left hand. The slave dealer sat down behind a small counter. He placed a document of purchase on the counter and pointed at a section on the papers. “Sign here,” the dealer said. “After you're done signing, we'll finalize on the meth
