The Legacy System

Chapter 481 – Game Starts

Even Master Takeshiba was unable to control his emotions and thoughts at that moment, as he couldn't help but say between clenched teeth,

"That brat is still as audacious as ever!"

The one who felt this letter the most was none other than the 'star' of the show Michael, who couldn't believe that it was his big brother that was actually taunting him.

His face was even worse than someone who had just eaten a full bag of shit, as he couldn't help but curse inside,

'Big brother I will make you regret the day you were born! I will make sure to teach you that you are nothing more than a vermin for me to squash and make a fortune.'

Master Fujiwara's face didn't seem to be any better too, as differently from Michael he didn't have much of a connection with Eric, and furthermore, he had actually betrayed Eric and his word.

For that reason, his position could be said to be the worst among them, because if Eric returned one day he would most certainly die in his hands.

He was the one who wished the most about the success of this trap, and Eric's death. As only like that would he be able to actually keep his life and at the same time, hug the warm thigh of Master Takeshiba, and Michael.

The only one who seemed to be calm and collected about this whole matter was Takeshiba Yuuto, who looked at them with a mocking expression and said,

"I already told you that this is going to be extremely difficult, but you don't believe me! I hope this letter brings some sense into you guys!

Well, I have other things to attend to, so you can continue with your Game!"

He made sure to accentuate that last word, in order to once again remind them of the letter. And it was actually worth it, especially seeing Michael's face as he said that.

Without further ado, he left the office room once again, as the gloomy faces inside seemed to be thinking about their plans and actions once again.

…

For the next 15 to 20 days the Takeshiba Family was dealing with the preparations of the big event, as there was still no sign of Eric's appearance.

It wasn't only the locals who were interested in the wedding though, as many foreign powers seemed to send one or two people to have a look at what would happen.

After all, whatever Eric had in his possession wasn't something simple. Many organizations and powers were trying to contact him and try to force him into their ranks.

Either that or they would make sure that he disappeared before he had the opportunity to grow big enough to stand in his own two feet and challenge them.

Of course, they had no idea that in the foreseeable future, the whole Earth would be plunged into chaos, and their foundations would be truly shocked and probably destroyed.

On the other hand, Eric himself was actually enjoying himself cultivating inside the Nightless Stone City while training his people as well.

After the insurgence that happened, he had decided to bring more people inside this Nightless Stone City only when his trusted people had evolved at least once.

It was precisely with these thoughts in his mind, that he increased the resources and training of all the people inside Nightless Stone City, as even he himself wasn't out of this.

In fact, during this one month, he had actually made improvements with his Alchemy skills, as he felt that he was ready for the 3rd Level Alchemic knowledge now and take the second important step towards becoming a great Alchemy Master.

But certainly, Alchemy was only a side business for the current him, as the main training he had done during this one month was related to his 'Void Steps' movement skill.

He had actually managed to fully understand and use the 4-star Void Steps and had even upgraded it to the 5-star version of it for 400.000 SP points, reaching great accomplishment of it.

Even though he was now more than proficient with the 5-star grade skill Void Steps, he felt that he had still a long way ahead to actually perfect it and try to upgrade it to 6-star.

Still, he wasn't that worried about that as he could feel that his current speed should most probably be 1/10 of that Li Saint, who was most probably a Realm 5 expert.

This might look like something degrading, as he was still extremely slower than the guy, but one has to understand that Eric was still a Realm 1 fighter.

4 Realms lower than that Li Saint guy, and he had yet to take his second drop of Dragon Blood. In fact, according to his and the Dragon Empress's estimations, in his second evolution, he could absorb at least 2 drops.

Just thinking about it made his blood boil, as he couldn't wait to actually go through that. But even though one month had passed he had yet to allow the second evolution to happen.

He could feel that he was on the verge of a breakthrough, but his body could still hang on for a little longer, only when he reached the limits of his physical endurance would he actually let himself evolve.

It was a good thing that this time there would be a lot of experts to help him evolve as he wished, as he was bound to fight a few tens of experts.

The guests were already on their due location, the Takeshiba Family's big Yacht had actually anchored not far from the entrance to his Nightless Stone City, as the celebrations had started.

That's right, the wedding between his good brother Michael, and his beautiful fiancé Takeshiba Aika was going to take place that night, in the big Yacht that was named Grand Wedding just for that occasion.

Eric had decided to participate in the Game alone, as he couldn't take care of a second one if something went wrong in the current situation.

Quickly disguising as one of the invited guests, he actually used the space array to leave for the other side, before heading towards the Yacht.

If he wanted to not arouse suspicions with his entrance, he had to make sure that everything seemed to be working perfectly.

He had to admit though, just looking at the decoration, the food, and all the details of the Yacht one could understand just how rich the Takeshibas were.

The guests and their backgrounds were nowhere simple as well, as they were all drinking wine, discussing with one another, and making new connections.

In order to not create suspicions Eric had to do the same as well, the only difference was that the guests who would talk to him were mostly females.

Well, that was to be expected considering how handsome his disguise looked. He had specifically selected something like this in order to attract attention.

After all, the best way to hide would be in plain sight!

As for the couple of the night, Miss Takeshiba Aika seemed to be enjoying the party and its delicacies while Michael had a fake smile and clearly a worried and irritated heart.

Since almost all of the people participating in the event were powerful and wealthy people, they clearly didn't like some commoner like him to pluck one of the best flowers.

Many guests had offended him openly and covertly, clearly stating what they thought about him, and the situation.

The poor guy had no other choice but to lower his head in anger, clench his teeth and fists and ignore them for now.

Right now he had a more urgent need to be careful, and that was his bastard of a big brother. Before he came here, he found a little message at his door written on a small red note,

"Game begins!"

That clearly stated that his good big brother had arrived in this place, but he had no idea who he was pretending to be, and what his plan was, he could only raise his guard as much as he could.

Master Takeshiba was actually conversing with a few foreigners who clearly seemed important, as he kept his eyes moving all the time.

Pretty soon it was time for the ceremony to happen, as Takeshiba Aika and Michael approached the big stand in the middle of the big reception venue, ready to exchange their oaths.

Eric didn't seem to be in a hurry, as he just approached his beautiful mother-in-law as he whispered in her ear,

"I thought you have an agreement with my junior brother to give your daughters and yourself to him, beauty! Don't tell me that you forgot about it already!"

"You…."

'Clannkkkkk…, clangggggg…, claaaaannnkkkkkkk…'

Unfortunately before Takeshiba Aika's mother could speak the windows of the Yacht seemed to be breaking one by one, as people dressed fully in red clothes with their identities hidden appeared from there.

The whole venue seemed to get surprised and startled, as finally one of the red-dressed guys walked forward saying,

"Ladies and Gentlemen I would appreciate it if you don't move from your positions! We have no intention of crossing limits and boundaries tonight, we only want that guy's life!"

While he said that, he pointed towards Michael with his finger. Seeing this that old fox Takeshiba seemed to understand that there was something wrong with these guys.

While the star of the night Michael stood up with a ferocious expression saying,

"You bastards finally showed up! I thought that my dear big brother would never appear in front of me, in fear that I will take his life away!"

"Huh!? What the fu*ck are you talking about!? Who is your big brother? My father has never been with a cheap woman like your mother!"
