Rise Of The White Dragon Chapter 61

Wiping her mouth with a napkin, Maira said with a smile, "Luan, today I went to Hamibo Corporation Headquarters."
"Mm. By your smile, I believe everything went well, yes?" Luan looked at her with great interest when he asked.
"Was it good? You tell me." Maira said with a proud smile. "When I got there, I said how reluctant I was to sell Petrobras shares, and I was only doing it because they managed to convince you and that you kept asking me to sell, and guess what?"
"Did they offer a higher value?" When Luan asked this, his mother chuckled.
"Exactly! They offered me 4.1 billion, but your mother here is not just anybody, how could I just accept it? I spent more than an hour saying the benefits of Petrobras' shares and when I pretended that I would think for a few more days... Hehe." Maira laughed and said, "They offered me 4.2 billion. Of course, I noticed it was the maximum bid they were willing to make, so, 'reluctantly', I sold the shares to them."
Olivia and the rest hearing this were amazed. After all, 4.2 billion dollars was a very high number.
"As expected, my mom is the best." Luan raised his thumb up. He knew that his mother was a genius in entrepreneurship, but sometimes he thought he underestimated his mother's genius.
"As expected of 'our' mother, right?" Catharina emphasized "our" when speaking.
"Yes, our mother," Luan agreed.
Luan and Catharina's conversation delighted Maira and everyone laughed out loud.
Olivia looked at Cristina and then at Maira and said, "Maira, I saw at the press conference that you had adopted this beautiful girl. To be honest, I would have loved to adopt her myself. Too bad you arrived first."
"Oh, instead of adopting Cristina, Aunt can become her godmother," Catharina suggested. She believes it is a good idea since Cristina did not yet have a godmother or godfather.

"I would be happy with that." Olivia smiled gently as she looked at Cristina. "Hello, beautiful girl, what do you think about this? Do you want to be my goddaughter?"
Cristina looked at Luan and then at Maira, and seeing that they left the decision to her, Cristina took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes."
It was all very new to her, but Cristina had recently created a kind of perception and knew when a person was having bad thoughts towards her, and she knew that Olivia had no bad thoughts against her. Her charisma and gentle smile made Christina want to get closer to this woman.
"That's great!" Olivia put her hands together and smiled widely.
Elias, who saw this, said, "Little sister, since you are going to become my mother's goddaughter, you can start calling me a big brother, just like you call Luan, or cousin Elias is also good."
"Okay, big brother," Cristina said in a jovial voice.
Hearing this, Elias almost passed out from her cuteness. He wanted to squeeze Cristina's cheeks, but he didn't dare for fear of scaring her.
They continued to eat and talk. Finishing up, Luan said, "As soon as we get some rest, let's go to the second floor. I have something I want to show to Aunt Olivia and Elias."
They finished resting in the living room while watching television. One of the news bulletins caught Luan's attention a little; it was about the mysterious disappearance of several people from different countries. In addition, there was also some news showing footage of a dimensional crack. It was just as before in his past life, although the dimensional cracks deceived human perception, they were unable to hide from a camera.
For Elias and Olivia, this was just another false news report, something created to generate an audience, but for Luan and the girls, this was worrying. They were already aware of the existence of dimensional cracks.
On the second floor, Luan brought them to the gym. Initially, Elias and his mother Olivia found it strange, since they remembered that there had been a lot of training equipment in this room, but then something else didn't seem right, since they felt a heavenly sensation when breathing inside that room. It was like they were being surrounded by nature with its fresh air, and it made them feel comfortable.

"Cristina, have a sparring match against Elias," Luan said, looking at her while rubbing her head. Then looked at Elias. "Elias, my little sister started learning martial arts and she wanted to find a good opponent to see how strong she is now. You can train a little with her, yeah?"
"But, I'm afraid of hurting him..." Cristina knew she was no longer a normal person; her strength exceeded the strength of 9 ordinary men by this time.
"Little sister, you don't have to worry." Elias, who heard this, thought it was funny, but he still answered seriously, "I am very strong and look at my muscles, they are all real." He posed. "Besides, you don't have to worry about me hurting you. I'm in the army, and I'm used to controlling my strength to train new recruits, and I've also taught fighting classes before."
"Big Brother..." Cristina did not answer Elias, but instead she looked at Luan asking for his opinion.
"It's okay. Just try to control your strength and use only one third of your strength. That will be enough for you to be able to train with him," Luan said softly.
"Okay, I'm going to try my best!" Cristina closed her little hands into fists and was now encouraged. She knew that this was also a test that Luan had prepared for her.
Luan knew that if Cristiana was unable to control her strength, later it would be a problem, especially when she started attending school and, without wanting to so, might end up hurting a child.
"Elias, don't use too much force against her. If you hurt her, even though you're already too big for me to take over my knee, you are still my child; I will hit your ass until it swells," Olivia said menacingly.
Hearing this, Elias winced. It looked like he had been through something like this before, which reminded him of whatever it was, and it made his body tremble with fear.
"I know..." Elias murmured.
"As expected of Aunt Olivia, so fierce." Catharina applauded, approving what she had said.
Cristina stood in front of Elias. She copied the position of the body technique Luan taught her and was in a fighting stance.
Elias, seeing this was amazed. He could not see any flaws in Cristina's fighting stance. 'Who trained her?' he wondered.
"Here I go, Big Brother," Cristina warned as she moved at him. She moved very fast despite her small legs, which gave Elias no time to react, and when Cristina's little fist went towards him, Elias thought quickly and with the palm of his hand, made Cristina's hand miss the blow.
Cristina did not stop and attacked again. Due to her small size compared to Elias, she was having a hard time landing her strikes since Elias always used the palm of his hand to deflect and attack with the other hand, however, she was also quick and dodged in time.
Olivia might not have fought, but she had seen her son and her husband train several times and knew that this girl was incredible.
"Big Brother, I'll be a little more serious. Be careful," Cristina warned, thinking of using a little more than a third of her strength.
Now Elias didn't dare to underestimate her. Although he didn't know how strong and fast such a small girl could be, he couldn't deny that if he were just a little careless, he would be knocked out by her precise attacks.

If you find it anywhere else, please reach out to me. Thank you. Old cover provided by Asviloka. She's also does werds!Current cover provided by Fuyudust. Old synopsis "Hi, my name is Alexis," I say into the camera, as I attempt to calm my nerves."And I'm Sab," I hear my best friend add from beside me. It's good to have her there, it's been far too long."I'm trying to focus," I tell Sab as I look into the camera. Will anyone even watch this?"What, just cause I didn't get sent to another world, where magic and dragons are real, I don't get to be a part of this?" she questions me. I can hear the hurt in her voice. I wish she'd been there. Things might have been... different. I can't believe I thought it was a game. If it had been, she'd have been the better choice."I said I was sorry. It's not like I knew I was going to be kidnapped by the system," I lamely apologize. She deserves more, but this is important."Coming soon, to an earth near you," she might be making light, but I can hear the fear in her voice."It's not funny Sab. It really is coming," I can't help but reply to her words, even though I know she didn't mean it."Come on Lexi, it's a little funny." she tries while chuckling nervously."Sigh. Look, can we just get back to telling them?" I ask, pointing at the laptop."Sure, but first you should show them some magic," Sab declares while waving her arms around."I told you. It's not that simple. I only showed you because you could tell it wasn't fake. They'd just think it was special effects," or come after me to try to lock me in a basement."Yeah, well they're not going to believe you anyway. It sounds pretty crazy, even to me. And I've seen what you can do," she proclaims. I didn't think it was that special, but she was super impressed by my magical abilities."Maybe, but I have to try. We don't have much time," I state as I stop the recording, before starting a new one."Hello, my name is Alexis," I pronounce, projecting as much confidence as I can at the little camera."Remember, the world ends on a Tuesday."
