W1:5: Bai An.

∆( A bit of an info dump. Read or skip until where chapter is broken~)∆

∆~∆

The Diago family was a well known family in all the social circles.

A family well known for its angelic matters.

Whether it was charity, building orphanages and hospitals, the Diagos never went unmentioned.

However every good thing had a worse and only those with close ties knew how merciless this family was.

Orphanages? To train, recruit and transform children them into killing machines who worked as assassins for the family.

Hospitals? To supply blood bags and fresh corpses to unknown sources.

The white, clean cloth they showed was nothing compared to what lay underneath the surface which was pristine white.

But with such powerful and unshakable connections and roots, who had the power and guts to shed light on the situation?

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that there was no ruthless family that beat The Diagos at this game in the whole Mabil continent.

Ace Diago was the most know in the family due to his choice of career. Being an actor gave him a lot of exposure and his fanbase exceeded six hundred million followers on almost every platform.

Coupled with his background, he seemed to be an angel from heaven on earth - to the outside world-with his SSS grade acting.

Naturally all that sat in that room knew of the insider information.

Another shocker was Dion Heart.

Their family was known for being unscrupulous. Contrary to the Diagos, they didn't hide having shady business outside of the country and in.

As a matter of fact, there was nothing the Hearts didn't know, so they didn't mind letting people know they were shady.

If one would explain to what extent this family was powerful, it would be like this.

A Heart could trace back information about your background down to the day your great great great great great great grandfather or grandmother was born, where, at what time and by which nurse.

No one in the circle dares to offend this feared family in fear of their dirty socks being exposed.

Dion, especially, was known for despite having a warm visage, he had an uncouth mouth that would spout secrets even your mother didn't know at the most inconvenient times. He as a member of the house was famous for his looks and unpredictablness.

It was no surprise for netizens when he dropped several tremendously shocking secrets at random on his page.

Fuelled with the desire to gossip, netizens gathered on his pages and his following was at a whooping five eighty seven million.

For a person who just unveils earth shattering things for fun, this number was one to make a person green with envy.

He had once casually posted a location and tagged the police one time and when investigated, it turned out to be the base of the most wanted serial killer at the time whom they had been chasing for three years.

The sensation this caused was not to be underestimated. Thus being on this show was definitely a shocker.

From the few who had just introduced themselves, one could see how big this project 'Nuvar' was.

"Chase Madden. Founder of R&I." A black haired man whose long hair was in a man bun spoke next. He had pink coloured beautiful upturned eyes and was bespectacled. He also had a very charming face.

R&I, the biggest brand in, possibly, the world. The clothes, bags, shoes, belts- anything that was made by R&I was made to be worn by the Gods of society. To wear an R&I material called for respect no matter where you went.

This man's, Chase, net worth could rival the ones for companies which earned billions in revenue.

Even the clothes Ryan had now we're R&I.

A man like him was hard to see but suddenly he was on this show.

The rest turned their shocked gazes at the man who stood languidly with a simple T-shirt and utility pants, which they were sure cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Huh...Ryan thought.

Dion Heart, Fu Yuzheng, Chase Madden, Grey Rodgers, Ace Diago, and he himself included plus the others who hadn't introduced themselves...

All these powerful people gathered here just for this stupid show. Looks like Wu made the right choice inviting him.

"Qiang Tao(1). CEO of Starlight Entertainment." A red head went next. What is unique is that his eyes are also red and surprisingly close set.

Wow, even the CEO of the company that started the project was going to participate!

"This is the request of Director Aaron. As a friend I cannot refuse. I also thank the rest that accepted my invitation to participate." Qiang Tao clarified in his cold tone on seeing the astonishment on their faces.

Ah...that's why there were so many big shots here. Turns out Qiang used his connections to invite some of them.

Then they all turned to the last one of them who hadn't spoken up.

The cold looking man had the smallest frame of them all. Nonetheless, his expression was as frosty as -100 ° (degrees). An unfathomable aura surrounded him, pressuring people to follow his every command.

He swept the long silver locks from his face and glanced up with his red captivating eyes freezing everyone in their places.

"Hi. The names Bai An(2). Heir to Perficent(3). Nice to meet you all." His velvet voice reverberated.

Heir to Perficent...

Everyone heard and felt a boom in their brains and even Chase had his mouth slightly wide open.

Ryan, Dion, Wu, Grey and the rest couldn't conceal their shock. Their eyes were wide open and mouths hung low.

Seriously...how did Director Aaron get such a person on his show?!?!

Everyone was in wonder. This was not to blame for Perficent.... couldn't be compared to their meager backgrounds.
