370: A snake enters

A snake enters

Luna had never met a human like Rudra , his mind was an ocean of fog. Even after seeing his memories and reading his mind , she could not understand what was it that he actually wanted , what was his bottom line , and what was his dreams. 0

To be honest , when a human entered her forest , she was genuinely pissed off , but instead of most humans that would keep on bumping into trees or tripping on vines because of the low visibility , Rudra was able to actually function like a normal person , this piqued Luna's interest. 

Then Rudra brought out the nine tailed fox child. For a moment Luna was stunned , she had never heard of any divine nine tailed beast giving birth in the last year , soo it was clearly not from the clan , yet still exuded a divine aura , it was from the race , that was for sure. 

Now the human was a mystery to Luna , hence she decided to enter his mind. While Rudra was seeing the illusion of his past , Luna was reading through his memories , trying to see what to do with him. 

If he had any Ill will for the seedling , or did not love it the way he did , Luna would have done everything in her power to seperate the young one from Rudra. But inside his mind , there was only love for Furball , not a single thought of using her as a tool.

Now at this point Luna's heart melted , this was a true bond , this human was different. Hence she decided to entertain the human. 

Luna was actually the protector beast of the Nothern continent , even the Dragon King had not been able to meet her in the last 1000 years. The land of illusions spanned for about 400 km2 area and was home to nearly 7000 nine tailed beasts. 

The tailed beasts were a secluded clan who did not like fighting wars , but were undoubtedly the strongest beasts on the continent. From mind manipulation to large scale destruction , they could do everything. 

Luna had no problems in signing a non aggressive pact with the kingdom of dragons , it was because she did not intend to attack them anyway. 

Luna said " You should stay here for two more days , we can't make it look that it was too easy , can we? Besides , I have some tricks that I can teach you too ". 

Rudra nodded , this was perfect , only now did Rudra notice that Furball was sound asleep on the ground. 

He carefully picked her up and put her in his embrace within his guild robes , as he thought " I need to educate her better , the floor is not a place to sleep ". 

Luna almost stopped in her tracks when she heard Rudra's mind voice .... It was then that she realized why Rudra's mind was covered in fog ... It was because the leader of the Elites , although a brilliant strategist and a cunning opponent , did not use his brain when it came to matters that he was comfortable with .... A Bonafide ' Baka' ( idiot). 

Rudra was happy to have completed the quest soo easily . Little did he know that if it was anyone except him. Even someone like Karna who could traverse the forest with his minds eyes , noone would have piqued the interest of Luna . The mission was easy , because it was Rudra doing it.

( Real world , the upside ) 

A lethal assassin , taking the identity of the fake online lover of Neatwits step-aunt Jenny , was now inside the upside. 

It was auction day for the shares of Mithun Ambani's corporation , and Ethan Grey was brutally busy with work , and soo was most of the staff in the upside. 

A snake had made his way into a pen of sheep , and the Shephard was currently busy in his house. Making his way to Neatwits house , escorted by the local transport facility of the upside. He mentained the perfect facade of a weak English man. 

For now , he was going to do nothing , he met Jenny , said the rehearsed lines he was filled in with , and pretended to have a great conversation with her. While silently scanning the house , and available weapons he could use for his mission. 

He asked " Soo , where are the kids.....".

( Meanwhile at the public auction ) 

Ethan Grey had opened the bidding at 700 billion dollars ,the base price . The Ambani corporation although had lost 40% of its intrinsic value , was still worth nearly 36 trillion dollars. Of whom today 10% shares were on sale , meaning nearly 3.6 trillion dollar worth. 

Getting them for anything less than 3.6 trillion was basically shortchanging Ambani and if things did go the way Ethan wanted them to go , he would definitely want to keep it right at the 700 billion dollar mark. Not a single penny more. 

However naturally there were other players , and everyone wanted to bid till almost 3 trillion dollars. After which it was dependant on how much money one wanted to earn. 

A final bid of 3.5 trillion dollars came from himsal group , before backing out when Ethan Grey decided to go in with 3.6 trillion. 

All of the major companies were out at this point , as Ethan seemed to be the only player left , it was only now , that Hao Mi started her bidding. 

3.8 trillion , the game had now started. 

Ethan had mentally prepared himself for this , he was going to become the majority shareholder of Ambani corporation and get his losses back by selling the company brick for brick. 

4 trillion dollars. It was Ethan's bid! 

Hao Mi instantly bid to 4.2 trillion , she had made a deal with Mithun , who would sell her 2% shares as an extra , which meant she would bid till 12% of the total value of the company. 

Ethan did not know the oppositions end line . Hence he had to place 4.4 trillion and just watch what would happen next. 

Little did he know that , a landscape changing event was going to go down while he was busy bidding in the auction. An event that would shake Rudra's immense trust in Ethan Grey , an event that would change Ethan's own attitude by a lot. 

But most importantly , It would affect one Jhonny English the most!
