Chapter 12: The Round Table Of Three Families

Three families of Earth hailed from three different continents.

North America, Europe, and Asia.

In the west, Smith took over the north and south American continents.

In the middle, Muller controlled the Europe and Africa continents.

And in the east, Li had its sphere of influence spanning Asia and Australia.

Their main business was related to the dungeons and other worlds. But to keep the ultimate control over the dungeons, the families had to use their supernatural strength against the world organizations.

It\'s been like that for more than five hundred years now.

And as the game appeared on the market, the families decided to host a meeting in their usual spot; the round table.

They had three tables in their main continents, rotating for every meeting.

Their meeting was pretty long, for they talked about game-related stuff, ranging from sales to players\' achievements.

In the middle of their table, they had four big screens adjacent, making a big square. Many tutorials flashed on those screens, catching potential players that would join their ranks in the future.

They also looked over their descendants, whose origins already made them stronger than everyone else in the game.

In fact, a hidden mechanic was implanted for those descendants in the tutorial grounds.

Muller Franc, an old man with wrinkles and a withered body, stared at the screen from one of the three honored seats. He was the family head of the Muller Household, which ruled two continents.

He seemed surrounded by a gentle aura, like many old people. However, his hands had been drenched in blood, so many times he learned to utterly hide his emotions, just like the rest of the experienced players.

He inwardly spoke to himself, \'The third reward. I have tempered with the system, for your sake, my most beloved grandson.\'

Muller Franc deemed everyone, other than his own kids, grandsons because he had been living for more than just three generations. Some of his weak descendants had already died due to their weak lifespan.

That was why he was so fixed on getting more of it.

His youngest grandson, Lucas, was a terrifying player already. If it weren\'t for the old man\'s stubbornness to live more, Lucas would\'ve been already deemed the next family\'s head. For his young age, he had strong and needed qualities to survive the harsh reality.

In Franc\'s eyes, Lucas would be his right hand. And for that young man\'s future, Franc sacrificed one of his treasures just so no one, particularly his peers, wouldn\'t notice his ploy.

His scheme was simple. Knowing the personalities of the other two youngest seeds from three families, Franc told his grandson to focus on the third reward. And it was easy as the aforementioned prodigies were highly competitive.

Lucas also stirred their rival relationship before the game started.

And thus, nothing should\'ve stopped Lucas from securing the third reward. And the scheme was as such; using his power, Franc switched the first reward with the third one, preparing it for his grandson.

The Dragons and the power to tame them!

\'It\'s impossible for us to wield that power. We are too old, and our bodies have adapted too much to our current mana,\' Franc\'s eyes gleamed in content, for he believed his grandson already secured the reward, \'But you are different. You are young with the highest potential I\'ve seen in our world.

You will wield the Dragon Tamer Skill, beat the weakened dragons, and use them to dominate the fake world!\' Franc declared!

The dragons were special guests in their world. To snatch them, the three families worked together. And to get a skill that would tame them, the three families ventured to The Tower, where their statuses meant nothing.

They used their shared wealth to contact dragon slayers. Some of them tamed dragons and used them as mounts! Of course, no one from that group believed those weak humans had managed to get dragons.

Yet, that was indeed the truth…

And while it seemed like everything was going Franc\'s way, the first problem appeared relatively quickly.

One of the girls from Smith\'s stepped into the room, announcing the news, "The Tutorial Main rewards have been distributed… But there\'s a problem with one reward. Our system can\'t find the person who has received it.

We have also checked the cave where the dragons were sealed… We… We found nothing," the girl barely could talk as she felt three powerful pairs of eyes pinning her down. Fortunately, her status was still satisfactory in the Smith family, so no old man used his pressure to kill her.

Her family head surely would\'ve protected her too!

Franc lifted his eyes, being the first to talk, "Don\'t tell me that either of you has cheated?"

For someone who had actually schemed, Franc\'s experience allowed him to speak without emotion and anything appearing on his countenance.

Two other family heads narrowed their eyes, not replying immediately. Instead, the younger people started bickering, arguing openly about the possible fraud!

Deep inside, Franc was seething. He couldn\'t believe that the third reward was actually snatched by someone else. This utterly thwarted his plans, for he also had plans for his grandson.

\'Who was it? Has someone from other worlds arrived in our world unbeknownst to us? That shouldn\'t be the case, though. We have security systems coursing through our planet…\' Franc theorized as he couldn\'t accept this simple fact.

Although a theory of a third party thwarting their game system sounded better, the three families had begun suspecting each other first. Of course, they kept the possibility of someone else plotting against them in the back of their heads.

However, their game had its own system. They created that system using skills from other worlds. They even made contracts with pretty hard to deal with people.

No power should be ever able to elude them!

Yet, Max had achieved such a feat through his grandpa\'s system. He even got the best reward out of the tutorial. And his insignificant self, still unknown existence to three families, was enough to stir up the mess in their ranks.

If he knew all of this, he would be laughing and celebrating with some sushi!

\'We must find dragons and the person who stole them away from us,\' Franc whispered inwardly, his thoughts fixed on the twins and Max.

He stood up, leaving the room to make a call to his prodigy.
