Chapter 642: 257. Who turned you into this, ’Starry Abyss’?

"Young Master Andifa has quite the eye."

Wendy Destis smiled, holding her wine glass, and congratulated the noble young master sitting across from her, Andifa Morodia,

"You secured the highly potential Flower Rain Star for just five million ammonium gold. Should we say the Morodia family has impressive means?"

"You flatter me, Senior Wendy. This was the result of the collective decision and effort of all our Rulan Shipping Workshop employees."

Andifa smiled, not hiding his pride.

"Heh, such pretty words are sufficient to placate employees. Those lower-tier workers will never see the full extent of a genuine business war in their lives."

Wendy Destis took a sip of her wine and continued,

"Bribing the right connections and obtaining the buyer’s information from the Crystal Tower’s Planetary Resources Bureau is no small expense. To probe each planet’s unique resources and uncover real value shows the workshop’s assisting capability—yet, making decisions with that information reflects your personal abilities."

"That’s what they say—Senior Wendy, don’t you do the same? The gap between us and the Destis family is still vast. Your words are truly flattering me."

Although Andifa spoke modestly, his attitude was one of equanimity, even hinting at a subtle hold of the upper hand.

Indeed, he was undoubtedly in a commanding position.

Wendy lowered her gaze and glanced to the side at the petite, adorable girl with long green hair and pointed dragon horns sitting next to him. She was uninterested in their conversation, contentedly eating sweets and idly trading stocks.

If one observed carefully, they would notice that the stocks she manipulated involved amounts in the millions of ammonium gold, often making decisions that casually determined the fate of companies or even civilizations based on personal whims.

Andifa, coming from a mere third-rate culture under the Crystal Tower as a scholarly faction scion, managed to leap forward, standing on equal footing with a representative from a narrative-level civilization like Wendy, all because of the little Dragonborn girl beside him.

No, calling her a girl might be an exaggeration... A 79-year-old dragon kind was still a ways off from even being considered a maiden.

Yet, as the 209th offspring of Velazquez Corporation, her identity and status were crucial, backed by a financial empire, especially one continuously rising within the "Union Group."

Nariya Velazquez, she admired Andifa’s talent and handsome appearance, but more importantly, she valued the wealth management capabilities of his family. Rulan Shipping made an ideal marriage partner, facilitating Velazquez’s expansion into the Crystal Tower and even the entire galaxy’s edge markets.

To think her young appearance implied she was cute and gentle would be a grave mistake.

It’s said that at her birth, she was ranked 219th, but as her mother’s side gained more control over shares, the ten siblings in front of her quietly "retired."

Frankly speaking, this Dragonborn capitalist girl was a cold-blooded monster capable of killing the sister raised by the same mother.

If not for the long growth cycle of the Dragon Race, she wouldn’t still be stuck at the Epsilon Stage (5).

The "Union Group" only recognized strength and capital.

Currently, even Andrew Velazquez, who was at his peak, was only a mere 120 years old, bearing titles such as "Benefactor Redd Gold," "Velazquez Security Head," and "Zeta Tiered Powerhouse." He was an absolute Crown Prince. Though Nariya couldn’t match Andrew, it’s said they had a good private relationship and officially met recently.

This alone warranted attention.

Across from her, Andifa continued sharing his experiential insights, citing various references, highlighting his knowledge and experience gained from a narrative-level civilization.

Wendy felt a mix of emotions.

Her family had initially established good relations with the narrative-level civilization, securing the development agency of the Fairy Star Belt. Yet now, Andifa, a junior, had suddenly soared overnight, tying in with Velazquez, a star enterprise in the narrative-level civilization.

Moreover, unlike her working for the Empire, Andifa’s descendants would undoubtedly be citizens of the narrative level, holding quite significant status among them.

What concept does this represent?

One was working for the capital, while the other had married the daughter of a real estate tycoon in the capital.

This surpassed jealousy, Wendy knew, whether she liked it or not, the other party would be someone she would now look up to.

She glanced at Nariya beside her. The latter showed no interest in their conversation or even her fiancé, seemingly as beautiful as money, her eyes could only contain gold.

She didn’t care about her marriage, driven purely by money...

Wendy found this indifference terrifying.

It wasn’t simply about materialism—most people were materialistic, and idealists were rare.

However, it could be strange to say.

Nariya resembled a devout believer, excluding material distractions, wholeheartedly devoted to deities.

Why was she so obsessed with making money? Perhaps she considered earning money as worshiping deities, praying to the god of capital, and singing praises to the goddess of gold.
