Arlan's parents felt like they were in a dream when they heard his words. Their son was actually the owner of Pegasus Hotel, the most famous building in their country! "Son, you're not joking with us, right?" Arlan's father couldn't believe his ears. Arlan smiled and shook his head. "It's quite difficult to explain everything. Mom, Dad... please believe me." "You didn't do anything illegal to obtain all your wealth, right?" Arlan's mother stared at him worriedly. "Of course not. I have a…-

While everyone was preparing their things, Arlan called the fat manager of Toyota, Brandee. "Hello, this is Arlan Dominic Roa speaking. Is this Manager Brandee of Toyota?" Arlan wanted to borrow four buses to transport everyone and the first person that came into his mind was Brandee. He was a manager of a large car brand so he might have some connections with bus owners. "Good morning, Mr. Roa! This is Brandee! Is there anything I can help you with?" Arlan could already imagine Brandee's…

The next day, Arlan woke up with a mild headache. He had a lot of things to think and this made him unable to sleep well every night. When he looked at himself in the mirror, he saw his disheveled and tired appearance. "I think I need to relax somewhere." He muttered to himself as he grabbed his phone. The first thing he did was to claim his daily reward from the mysterious app. Arlan frowned when he saw the reward. Lately, the mysterious app has been giving him advanced weapon technologies. He…

Arlan noticed Dickoy's sincerity, but it was still too early to trust the man. "Mr. Roa, I've already called my friend. He said that he will wait for you at Tim Hortons coffee shop in Dela Rosa Makati." "He wants to see me in such a populated street? Mr. Tuazon, it seems like your friend is quite bold. He even dares to smuggle restricted firearms in that kind of place." Arlan muttered jokingly. He couldn't help but recall a certain person as he said this. Dickoy also chuckled in amusement. He…

Arlan left his contact information to Brandee and he also gave him some money to pay for the armoring of the cars. He then left the car shop with the rest and they headed straight to the headquarters of the Arms Corporation of Maharlika. He already informed Dickoy Tuazon that he will visit the arms company. When they arrived, Arlan saw Dickoy and a few high-ranking members of the company waiting for them. "It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Roa!" Dickoy shook hands with Arlan. He then turned…

When Arlan opened the package, he found out that it was actually the Salvator Mundi painting and Meng Tian's spare battle sword, Silver Dragon. "Jonas, display them in the hallway. Make sure that they are encased in anti-theft glass." "Yes, boss! Just leave it to me." Jonas nodded his head. "Alright. Just call John Dave and Josephus if you need some extra hands." Arlan said before he headed to the dining room to eat breakfast. (John Dave and Josephus are one of his employees. They are mainly…

After dinner, they took a thirty-minute rest before they headed to the gym. "This is only a spar so you guys should not injure each other." Arlan warned them. "Don't worry, boss! I will hold myself back." Karl gave him a thumbs up. "Enough talking. Come at me." Winter muttered as she adjusted her stance. One of her combat skills was Muay Thai and it is also her strongest fighting technique. She displayed an orthodox fighting stance with a calm look on her face. Karl narrowed his eyes when he…

Karl who was standing behind Arlan almost lost his footing when he heard this. 'Ten million pesos?! I didn't even get that much from the boss... No. I received something more valuable from him...' He muttered as he thought about the serum that significantly improved his physical abilities. "If you work for me, I promise that I won't mistreat you guys. Your monthly salary will start at 80,000 pesos and this will increase depending on your performance. Other than that, I will also provide you guys…

When they returned to the villa, Arlan brought Winter to his study. "You know about Virtual Reality, right?" Winter calmly nodded her head. "Yes." "Then can you make one for me?" Arlan asked with anticipation. If she could create a Virtual Reality World for him, he could make use of it to train his people. "I can do it, but it will require a bit of time to create the system. What kind of Virtual World do you want me to create?" Winter asked expressionlessly. "I want you to recreate the…

Arlan didn't give the blueprint to Dickoy. The man's identity was still questionable and it was unknown if he was connected to his enemies. Arlan left the restaurant after reaching an agreement with Dickoy. It was already 6:48 p.m. when they return to the villa. Karl was still not there, but he informed Arlan about the progress of his task. At around 11 p.m., Arlan received an email from Dickoy. It was the list of researchers who would join the project they discussed earlier. Arlan gave…
