Saving The World From The Shadows With A Conglomerate System
Oftentimes pride and greed are attributed as cardinal sins that humans should strive to stay away from. But what if I were to tell you that they were humanity's greatest weapons, and that the world would be saved, not by heroes of virtue, but by a greedy trillionaire who will stop at nothing to fulfil his desires? This is a transmigration story; the god of wealth and greed has summoned his most ambitious child to save a failing world. However, because he already summoned another hero, our protagonist must save this world from the shadows. And what better way to do it than the only way he knows how; by building a global scale conglomerate. *** What seems like a typical Web-Novel story eventually transcends your expectations once given the chance.
The Lost City [I]
He swam above a sunken city, that spanned as far as the eye could see. Its marble buildings were shattered and ruined, and whatever people had lived here were long dead and forgotten.
There were statues of a woman carrying a trident, all over the city, so tall that they reached even the height that Edric was currently swimming.
These were the only structures untouched by whatever war had ravaged the area. They glowed faintly under the dark hue of the water, hinting that there was still some dormant power present within them.
Despite the city's ruined nature, its beauty was as clear as day. Various flora and fauna claimed the forgotten buildings as their home, giving colour and life to what should've been a pitiful sight.
Green, pink, and purple corrals lined the statues of the trident woman. Fish that flapped their fins as if they were birds, swam all around, eating from the vibrant green vegetation that grew from the buildings.
