Chapter 217 Terrifying Woman and Petty Magnate
The newcomer was none other than a certain magnate who had just lost 2.8 million to Luke.
Next to him stood a beautiful woman who had a unique air about her.
Luke’s entire attention was almost instantly focused on the woman.
The woman glanced at him, as if she had sensed something, but then turned indifferent.
Luke somehow sensed danger. The woman felt terrifying
He stopped observing her and recalled how Tony had come out of the elevator with her just now.
After being a police officer for a long time, he had picked up the habit of observing and analyzing people.
Sometimes, people would reveal their true feelings through the way they moved, or in even subtler ways apart from their expressions or words.
Recalling what he saw just now, Luke soon realized why it had felt weird.
It was because Tony Stark was behaving too obediently.
Generally speaking, Tony Stark always acted cosy with girls in the news.
While he might not be intimate with all of them, he was almost always up close and personal with the young and beautiful women around him.
So what Luke saw earlier wasn’t quite right.
Tony’s face, movements and distance from the woman all suggested that he both respected and was somewhat intimidated by her.
This definitely wasn’t Tony’s normal reaction to beautiful girls, much less to such an outstanding one.
Though her breasts weren’t remarkable, her legs were long enough to reach Tony’s waist.
That was right, the woman was half a foot taller than Tony Stark.
Perhaps it was due to her high heels, but she really dwarfed Tony when she stood next to him.
Thinking that, Luke glanced at Selina, who was in the pool.
A moment later, Selina seemed to notice his staring. She swam over to him and got out to sit down in a chair next to Luke. “What evil plan are you up to?”

Luke was at a loss. “Huh?” He had been too busy thinking to notice his surroundings just now.
Selina rolled her eyes at him and put on a robe. “Stop pretending. You’re just appreciating the pretty girls, aren’t you?”
Luke finally noticed that he was looking at the backs of two girls in bikinis not far away. He was immediately amused.
He had been wondering about the relationship between Tony and the woman, and didn’t have time for boobs.
He subconsciously looked at the other side, only to see that Tony and the woman had disappeared around a corner.
Stumped for a moment, Luke shook his head and abandoned his thoughts.
Although the woman was unusual, nothing that happened to Tony, as the son of destiny, was really a surprise.
Selina tried to talk Luke into swimming, but failed. She could only swim on her own for a while longer.
Luke was enjoying his Dr. Pepper, but then noticed people looking at him.
Most people had ordered alcohol or soda since they were here for fun, but Luke and Selina were the only two who had caramel carbonated drinks.
Furthermore, Luke looked like a high school student, which was also the reason why other people were laughing.
How did a little kid like this wind up here?
Although Luke was obviously an adult, rooftop pools like these were actually social gathering places for people older than him.
Many of the young and beautiful girls in the swimming pool had actually been found by the hotels on purpose.
Of course, they weren’t prostitutes, but girls who were hoping to get to know the rich and powerful here.
Some of them wanted to marry rich guys, and some were here to look for sugar daddies to cover their living expenses.
So, Luke was quite out of place, mostly because he looked like someone from a middle-class family and couldn’t be too rich.

Luke, however, was as calm as ever.
He didn’t really care what these men or women were up to, and he didn’t need to feel embarrassed.
Suddenly, he saw Tony appear from around the corner again with four bodyguards.
Luke thought for a moment, then activated Sharp Nose.
He found that the woman had disappeared. More importantly, he detected the woman’s scent in the sky.
The scent extended from the rooftop to the sky. Luke was pretty certain that no aircraft had passed by just now, not even any big bird.
The woman couldn’t have left by air without advanced technology or supernatural abilities.
As Luke expected, Tony was a magnet who attracted unusual people.
Luke had an enormous secret of his own as well, after all. He felt like laughing, and indeed laughed out loud when he saw that Tony had noticed Selina, who had just come out of the swimming pool, and was speaking to her with great interest.
A few seconds later, he looked in the direction Selina was pointing, and his face turned dark.
Luke smiled brightly at him, and Tony snorted and left without looking at Selina again.
Selina went over to Luke, puzzled. “Are rich people all so incomprehensible?”
Luke gave a towel to her with a smile. “What did you say to him?”
Selina said, “Nothing. He invited me to dinner, I said I had company, and he asked who it was, and wanted to talk to you.”
Luke said, “Then, he got mad and left?”
Selina nodded her head. “That’s right. Oh, is it because of what you did last time? Is he really so petty?”
Luke chuckled and said in a low voice, “He’s not petty. I just won 2.8 million dollars from him downstairs.”
Selina exclaimed, “What? Are you kidding?”
Luke described what happened just now and concluded, “He’s not regretting the money. Two million for him is like two hundred bucks for us. He just can’t accept the fact that he lost to me again.”

Ogre Tyrant
Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world. However, he is not as alone as he first thought. There are other people running around all over the place fighting monsters for a living. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to be one of those monsters. Desperate for any degree of safety and normalcy he can find, Tim must tread a fine line between freedom and subservience to survive. All while trying to keep alive a trio of adventurers hellbent on becoming legends. However, unfortunately for Tim, he is not the only one from earth to awaken in this world and the other Awakened aren't nearly so benevolent. Warning: The protagonist begins the story quite cowed and meek but progresses into a more assertive and situationally dominant personality. This is partly due to growth, but also a result of the character overcoming initial shock and longstanding depression. If you think I could have handled a segment better, by all means, point it out and provide your reasoning and suggestion. Everyone's experience of depression is different, and Tim's is a close representation of my own, so it won't necessarily 'vibe' with everyone. Chapters are around 15k words and released approx 1/week over the weekend. Has been reduced to around 7.5k to 9k to better fit my schedule.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Author here (: This is my first time posting any of my works online, and I hope that you enjoy being welcomed into my world, as much as I enjoy creating it for you! I welcome any and all criticism, so long as it is actually something that can benefit my writing (not just random hating and nothing substantial). This story is edited by Nesryn and ArtemisArrow, my dear friends! The cover of this book is not my property, and if you are the actual owner of the image and would like me to take it down please PM me (: I am posting this to see if it generates any interest. If it does, then I will be planning on making more regular posts for chapters. I am intending this to be one book of a series, titled The Lost Royal. I intend to post, at this point, one chapter a week unless I get onto a roll! If this starts to accrue enough interest where I can start focusing solely on writing then more chapters will be released per week. Thanks for your interest, and I hope you enjoy!
