“Very well, young master. I understand.”The attendant bowed respectfully and immediately handed Bintang three masks in case he wished to conceal his identity.After receiving them, Bintang entered VIP Room Number Five, the room usually used by Dani.VIP rooms were naturally different—anyone could use them as long as they possessed a special identity plate. The greatest advantage was that VIP room owners could hide their identities while the auction was in progress.After briefly observing the lively atmosphere of both the VIP and public areas—“Welcome back, Master Bintang…” Mawar approached with a beautiful smile, warmly welcoming Bintang. She likely already knew that Bintang possessed the Heavenly Dragon Sword.“Zidane, hand the sack containing the pills to Mawar.”Mawar accepted the sack and inspected it. Instantly, her breath caught.Hundreds of pills were inside the sack. This was an enormous transaction—extremely profitable for her.“Master Bintang is truly extraordinary. Even

“Sixty trillion!”Bintang raised the price once again.“Y-You’re insane!” VIP Room Number Six could no longer accept such a drastic increase. However, another VIP room suddenly spoke up.“Aryanti doesn’t lack money. You don’t need to compete with her… Dani is just showing off his wealth. If you lose, won’t your pride be crushed?”Bintang raised an eyebrow. So the person in the neighboring room was the woman who had once tried to help him?“What a pity…”Bintang muttered softly.“Who says I’ve run out of money? I raise the bid to seventy trillion!”All the guests held their breath. That minor provocation had truly driven Aryanti mad, forcing her to buy six pills at such an unreasonable price.“Hahaha! I admit defeat!” Bintang said casually.Soon, the auction winner was confirmed. After that, a beautiful young woman stepped onto the stage, carrying a single sheet of artwork that immediately drew attention once it was revealed.“This painting…” All the guests who understood art sensed th

Hearing that challenge, Bintang was tempted to raise the bid. However, Anya—who did not know that Bintang actually had a connection with Dewi—covered his mouth with her hand.“Bintang, don’t fight back. You really—”Bintang merely nodded and abandoned the idea. Soon, the masterpiece painting by the Painting Goddess was officially declared to have a winner.Some time later, the auction continued.“This is the climax of tonight’s auction—the item everyone has been waiting for… the Sky Dragon Sword!”The entire audience burst into applause, cheering and brimming with excitement as the final event began. Who wouldn’t recognize the symbol of the Sky Dragon Sword?“Host! There’s no need to explain any further! Just announce the starting price so we can begin bidding!”“That’s right! After all, everyone here has only been waiting for tonight’s climax!”“Ahem! Since all the guests are impatient, the starting price is set at ten trillion!”No one immediately placed a bid. Instead, the public g

“F-Five quadrillion… Dani!”Everyone stared intently at VIP Room Number Five. Yet doubt began to arise—was the person inside truly Dani, or someone else deliberately using that room?“With that much money, you can’t possibly be that loser Dani! If you truly want to compete, remove the curtain and show your face to me!” Dewi felt thoroughly provoked.Inside VIP Room Number Three, Leon’s face turned deathly pale. He had only brought five quadrillion in his account—money obtained through an agreement with someone to seize the Sky Dragon Sword. Unfortunately, that enormous sum had already been surpassed by VIP Room Number Five.“Whoever you are… by offending me, I guarantee you won’t be able to take that sword back home. I surrender!”Leon raised his hand and immediately left the VIP room.Unlike Leon, Dewi was still deeply curious about the identity of the owner of VIP Room Number Five.“Why won’t you introduce yourself? Wouldn’t this competition be far more interesting?”“Dewi, this isn

“Aaakkhh!” Dewi cried out as she staggered back to her feet, pointing at Bintang with a face full of fury.“You damned Bintang! Idiot! How dare you follow me all the way to this place?!” Dewi cursed loudly, drawing everyone’s attention toward Bintang.“Who is that young man? Why does our idol Dewi look like she knows him?”“Hey, you shameless brat! Apologize to our idol! Otherwise, you’ll taste our fists!” The men who idolized Dewi were furious. Their anger was clearly caused by Bintang bumping into her.Hearing all that, Bintang—who had no time to deal with Dewi—was about to continue on his way. However, his steps were stopped when Dewi grabbed the black jacket he was wearing.“You think you can just run away after crashing into me? Or are you leaving because you know there are so many people here backing me up?”Bintang really wanted to slap Dewi, but he knew that doing so would only cause more trouble.“Then what do you want?” he asked coldly.Dewi showed her even more shameless si

“B-But, Master, why are you all angry over something so trivial?”“Angry? Bintang, you’re misunderstanding it…” Gambling Goddess said softly as she gently flicked Bintang’s forehead. “We didn’t come here for this matter.”“If you didn’t come to see me, and not to make an issue out of Mawar, then what important matter made all five of you come down from the mountain?”All five of his masters nodded. One by one, they took out a residence key that looked extremely familiar to Bintang’s eyes.“Th-This key…” Bintang was stunned. He stared at his masters with eyes full of gratitude.“Return to the capital. This time, your mission is to make your family rise again.”Bintang fell silent. He wanted to thank them deeply—only now did he realize that the residence left behind by his parents had been kept by his five masters all this time.After chatting for a while, Bintang’s vision suddenly blurred. He eventually fell asleep, causing Medist Goddess to smile faintly.“He’s already asleep. Bintang

“Suit yourself… How about we make a bet?” Bintang said lazily.“A bet? How ridiculous. You already dare to pretend you’re an envoy of Goddess Medist, and now you want to gamble with me? You truly have no shame!”“And don’t forget the last time you slapped me,” Dewi snapped her fingers.At once, five burly men strode toward them.“Slap him a hundred times in front of me!”“Yes, Princess!”One of the large men reached out to grab Bintang’s arm—but Bintang moved faster. With a swift motion, he flicked several acupuncture needles, instantly halting the movements of all five men!Jleeeeeb! Jleeeeeb! Jleeeeeb!The five burly men froze in place. They could only see and speak—nothing else.“P-Princess! I can’t move my body at all!”“What—what is happening?!”“Y-You…” Dewi was shocked. She stepped backward, recalling Clara’s words during the Mandra family meeting.“B-Bintang, don’t think that just because you’re a martial artist you can act however you like in this residence… I thought you—” D

Arto and Eni exchanged glances. Ever since news of Bintang had disappeared, they had indeed been searching for the golden identity plaque of the Sky Residence. However, they never expected that the plaque had not been hidden at all—it had been right beneath the meeting hall table.“Y-You…”Bintang looked at his uncle and aunt calmly.“Uncle Arto, Aunt Eni, I have no intention of discarding you. After all, you are my father’s younger siblings. My wish is only to revive this family, not for my own selfish gain. If you still acknowledge the holder of the golden plaque as the head of the family, then within two hours, submit all business data that still belongs to the Sky family.”The businessmen nodded. After all, they were merely CEOs—employees who had once worked for the Sky family.Arto and Eni were different. Several businesses were firmly in their hands. They had fought desperately to maintain them, and now Bintang wanted to take them back without compensation. Was this not blatant

The assassin’s face flushed crimson, her chest rising and falling rapidly as shame and fury mixed together.“Y-You assaulted me!” she shouted, pointing at Bintang, who looked slightly awkward.Scratching the back of his head that didn’t itch, Bintang replied, “I didn’t do it on purpose. Besides, you were trying to kill me. Doesn’t that make what just happened… balanced?”“B-Balanced?!” she snarled. “I’ll tear your mouth apart until you die!”The woman lunged wildly, brandishing the two daggers in her hands.Yet none of her attacks even grazed Bintang. She couldn’t even tear his suit—he simply didn’t allow it to happen.At last, Bintang spotted an opening. Producing three needles, he seized the chance with a feint.Jleeeeb! Jleeeeb! Jleeeeb!“M-My body?!”Bintang smiled again. He lifted the girl’s chin so their eyes met.“Tell me—who hired you to kill me?”“I WILL NEVER TELL YOU!”Nodding calmly, Bintang took out a single Bloodleaf and held it before the beautiful assassin.“As an SSS-

After fifteen minutes of driving his BMW E30, Bintang finally arrived at Savador Casino. This casino was not the largest in the capital, but Bintang deliberately chose a smaller branch—he had no intention of drawing the attention of certain forces that might hinder his plans.Entering the lobby, he approached the currency exchange counter and requested to convert his money into chips. The attendant immediately looked at Bintang with a greedy gaze.The suit he’s wearing is incredibly expensive… he must be the perfect prey for the boss, the attendant thought to himself. Sure enough, Bintang took out his black card.“Exchange fifty trillion into chips.”“S-Sir, are you certain? Fifty trillion is an enormous amount! If you lose it all at once, what if your parents refuse to accept it and cause trouble?”“Do you really need to remind me of that?” Bintang’s gaze turned sharp.The attendant nodded quickly and immediately exchanged fifty trillion into a massive stack of chips. Soon, Bintang w
