The Famous Millionaire - Chapter 7

In a vast fantasy world where countless dangers lurk for humans and demi-humans alike, no creature is more fearsome or powerful than the Dragons, proud, intelligent beasts who stand at the very peak of existence.Dragons do not fight for kings or armies. They are the purest manifestation of nature’s fury and brutality, beings born to stand alone. Yet even such creatures seek a connection, a single partner chosen only once in their lifetime, bound through a unique Pact that links body and soul as one.Those chosen are no ordinary individuals. Dragon Riders soar through the skies atop their mighty companions, dominating land and air alike with powers of overwhelming magnitude. Thus begins a ruthless race between peoples and nations, each striving to secure the loyalty of the most powerful Dragon Riders the world can produce.This is the story of Theo, a noble whose family was brutally murdered, leaving him orphaned and alone as a child. Now a young man, his gaze turns toward the Royal Academy of Dragon Riders of the Empire of the Four Kingdoms, for nothing could serve vengeance better than a creature that embodies the raw fury of nature itself.But while Theo’s steps are driven by revenge, his journey will be filled with both intriguing allies and cruel enemies. And in his search for a battle companion, he will discover something far more precious, because the same mythical beast capable of terrorizing the skies and the land also holds another side, one far more unexpected than anyone could imagine.

Wang Chen, a sore loser, was on his way back to his apartment after being rejected by his company boss once again. As he approached the alleyway leading to his apartment, he was suddenly knocked out by the most beautiful woman he had ever seen from the blue star planet.The woman kissed him and then threw him into a void that led to another world. When Wang Chen woke up, he realized that he had been transmigrated into the body of another nobody loser in this new world. He thought that his new life would be even more tragic than his previous one, but suddenly something strange happened.[Ding! Found a suitable successor for Destiny Transfer System][Does the successor want to bind with the system?]How could Wang Chen miss this opportunity to turn his life around? He quickly responded with a “yes.”[Congratulations, host, for binding with the Destiny Transfer System.][With the help of the system, you can loot other people's chances. If you manage to loot the chances of the protagonist, conquer the heroines, and steal their luck, you will receive additional benefits.]“Hahaha,” Wang Chen laughed, thinking that his life would be amazing from now on.However, little did Wang Chen know that he was now a crucial piece in a mysterious conspiracy involving powerful immortal beings who controlled the cosmos.Would Wang Chen be able to survive in this new world and uncover the truth behind the conspiracy, or would he become a pawn in a much larger game?

In this world, mastering runes is the key to becoming a cultivator. The ability to control these runes depends on the development of one’s Brain Domain. The more advanced the Brain Domain, the quicker and more precise the rune control, determining one’s potential as a cultivator.He was a boy from the slums with slim chances of rising above his station. Despite knowing his limitations, he worked tirelessly, driven by his dream and gratitude towards a childhood friend who helped him secure a spot in a prestigious high school. However, with a less developed Brain Domain, his prospects for further education and becoming a cultivator were bleak. His hard work seemed in vain when, six months before the crucial entrance exam, the girl he cherished rejected him, claiming their worlds were too different for their paths to cross again.But then, everything changed when he found himself engulfed in a mysterious ocean of golden runes!

As part of the imperial family, every move by Chu Yuan in this game of chess is made with apprehension, fearing that with a moment of inattentiveness, the whole match will be lost in a single move.

Ascending to the throne at eighteen, not half a year passes before civil strife erupts in Yun Nan. Though the thoughts of the old guard at the imperial court are not exactly identical, they are all waiting to see how the new emperor will put an end to this.

Unexpectedly, before this side could make a move, a few thousand miles away, the King of Xi Nan, Duan Bai Yue, had already personally commanded troops to attack in all directions; not half a year had passed when peace was restored.

Sparse moonlight shines into the palace; Chu Yuan stamped the wax seal himself, and had a secret letter sent urgently to Yun Nan 800 miles away — this time, what must we(1) give in exchange?

Brush marks passed through the back of the paper; it almost can be seen, when writing this line, how angry the young emperor was.

Duan Bai Yue spread out a piece of paper unhurriedly, replying with only one word.

You.

(1): Chu Yuan is using the royal ‘we’ here.
