Asura Conqueror

Nedo and Reno looked at him as if he was insane. Reno might have been from one of the big families of Estra but so were the two women in front of him. Even if they weren't, his balls are still not big enough for this.

As a gamer, he of course has dated a lot of women, NPC women. Real women, however, he was still sitting at zero.

Nedo on the other hand thought that the one sitting beside him was out of his league. His family and the Minser family were quite close which was why he would see Pia from time to time.

He, however, would just look at her from afar. Though it'd be a lie if he'd say he was not tempted to go and strike a conversation

"Oh, where?" Brina asked.

"These two said they would want to visit the nightclub that'll open this weekend. You guys chill, it's not like it's a date or something." Marcus calmly said while Nedo and Reno were shaking their heads telling him to shut up.

Marcus wasn't keen on making close friends, but a few acquaintances wouldn't hurt. He doesn't want to get attached to anyone here as he knew he'd have to leave in a few years.

Both Brina and Pia were shocked. They looked at Reno who they knew was never a fan of going out at night.

"You're going to a club? Booze and all?" Pia asked him.

Reno nodded "I think it's time for some change."

The girls looked at each other.

"You guys talk, I have to go." Marcus slowly stood up.

"Will you be going this weekend?" Nedo asked.

Marcus raised both his arms up, his hands were on the same level as his head, and his palms facing upwards which indicated he doesn't know yet.

Ex-actress Maya stood in the lobby of Marcus' soon-to-be company building. She looked around and saw that it was devoid of people.

The place looked tidy and professional. There were sofas to the side and a counter facing the entrance.

The entrance opened, startling her. She turned to see who arrived.

A man with blond hair walked on the white marble floor and walked towards her. He has straight brows and monolid eyes. The man looked at her, his brows scrunched.

"Are you lost?" Leo asked. The beauty in front of him was slightly familiar.

Nervous, Maya quickly answered, "No, I'm supposed to meet with a woman named Eva and a man named Nexus here."

The furrowed brows disappeared as Leo's expression was replaced with shock.

"You must be Maya." Leo remembered that this was one of the five 'parties' that will meet.

Maya nodded. "Yes, I am."

"Either we're both early, or we're both late. Come." Leo led the way as he could see that Maya didn't know where to go.

They walked towards the elevator and went to the highest floor, 20th floor.

"Were you the actress who was in fancy cops?" Leo broke the silence.

They got out of the elevator and slowly made their way to where the meeting would take place.

"Yes," Maya meekly said.

"It was funny. Really, you don't have to be shy about it. I mean, if anything you were the star there." Leo thought that his question might have offended the ex-actress.

Maya shook her head. "You don't have to say all those things."

"Hey," Leo looked at her and smiled. "What I said, I meant it."

The last sentence brought a smile to Maya's face. "Thank you."

The two arrived and went into the board room. The two were actually early.

Nexus and Eva turned their heads. They both knew that Leo and Maya were coming thanks to Nexus' soul sense.

"Good afternoon." Leo greeted as he fixed his grey suit.

Nexus gave a slight nod to Leo while the two girls hugged.

They sat down and talked for a little while before the next person arrived. Loo Minser together with three people from his family, followed by Zoey who was accompanied by Mitz Xalia, her uncle, and two more people. The individuals the two brought were all Preparation Stage experts.

Zoey sat beside Eva and is getting acquainted with Maya. Loo was talking with Mitz while Leo remained silent while sitting beside Maya.

The door once again opened. A vermillion haired teen walked in together with a woman. They both looked heavenly. The teen wore a black long sleeve that highlighted both his hair and eyes. The woman wore a white dress. There were no specific features that stood out, but that didn't mean she wasn't gorgeous.

'Let the games begin.' The teen smiled at each and every person in the room and went to find a seat.

Eva who sat at the edge of the rectangular table, cleared her throat as she stood up.

"Everyone, you might have some doubts about throwing your good hard-earned money to this company which you hardly know anything about. So I would like to start with being as transparent as possible. I am someone who came from a 3rd rate country, but that doesn't mean I'm not a hard worker."

What she said at the end shocked quite a few people in the room, Loo in particular.

The Holy Maiden glanced at each of the one's seated. "Marcus and Nexus, on the other hand, came from a faraway place. A place where most of us can't even imagine existed."

As Eva was about to continue, a man from the Xalia family spoke. "I'm sorry but, should we just believe what you said because it came from your mouth?"

Loo scoffed after hearing the man. He was already convinced about Marcus being from a powerful 1st rate country, he was just not expecting Eva to be from a 3rd rate country.

"Here's proof," Marcus calmly said as he released his aura. "Are your 17-year-olds as strong as I am?"

"Rank 7 Elite?!" Loo's eyes went wide. A 17-year-old who has this kind of cultivation is something Estra couldn't foster.

Marcus retracted his aura and smiled, leaving a few people's mouths agape.

Nexus looked at the man who cut Eva off. "Save your questions after she's finished speaking."

Killing intent rose after he finished his sentence, but it faded as quickly as it came to be.

Loo looked around, he thought the killing intent came from one of Marcus' bodyguards. He was scared stiff together with Mitz. The one below Preparation Stage didn't get to feel it, but for the experts in the room, they couldn't imagine having that kind of killing intent. It felt like you needed to send thousand upon thousand of bodies to hell before you could achieve it.

Eva slightly smiled. "This company, Asura, will first open up a nightclub where our drinks will be sold. Once the demand rises, that's when we'll start to distribute. It's as simple as that. Today we have prepared the 8 drinks that will be released this weekend. I hope that you will find it to your liking as you will be the first in Estra to ever try this."

She got the drinks which were already in bottles and placed them on the table.
