Rise of the White Dragon Chapter 205

"Mom, Ingrid, I love you!" Cristina said with a beautiful smile on her face as she ate takoyaki.

The giant octopus became a very tasty ingredient as Luan used the Negative Qi to purify the poison and left the Qi in the octopus' flesh, and this made it even more flavorful and nutritious. Before, everyone had been a little tired, but once they ate, they were raring to go, maybe even more so than they had been previously.

Maira smiled. "You're very cute, did you know that?" She pinched Cristina's cheek.

Ingrid looked on with a smile. She was glad it turned out good, as it was her first time preparing something like takoyaki.

"Luan, say 'Aaah'," Ingrid, with a takoyaki skewered on her fork, brought it toward Luan's mouth.

"Oh." Luan opened his mouth and bit down.

This went on for more than 10 times until someone couldn't stand being "fed dog food" anymore (demonstration of public affection).

"Ingrid, eat some yourself. Don't just feed my brother," Catharina said.

"Oh... but, he's got his hands busy making the barbecue, and I wanted him to start too." Ingrid looked at her with her innocent eyes, blinking repeatedly.

"Still, you need to eat too," Catharina replied.

"...Well, I could eat later," Ingrid replied.

"Do what you want~" Catharina didn't want to be bothered by this lovesick fool anymore.

"Luan."

Luan turned to look at Elijah. "Yes?"

"I want to fight a strong opponent. I'm fine with an advance, but I think it will be easier if I fight someone strong," Elijah said.

"You can choose Pooh or Zeus to be your opponent, but be prepared to get a little hurt as they aren't very good at controlling themselves," Luan said with a warning at the end.

"Are they that strong?" Elias looked at them both and didn't quite believe it.

"If they use their full strength, you'd die with just one attack," Luan said, and asked, "Is this strong?"

"Yes Yes. Very strong!" Elias nodded, fear glimmering in his eyes.

"Scared idiot," Catharina mocked him.

Elias scratched his head in embarrassment but didn't respond. He thought for a moment and laughed awkwardly. Yes indeed, he had acted like a scared idiot...

"Catharina." Seeing her frown, Elias quickly said, "Would you pass the jug of juice?"

"Apart from being a scaredy cat, are you also lazy?" Catharina was joking this time, but when she showed no expression, Elias ended up taking it seriously and awkwardly got up to take the pitcher of juice.

"Wait, I don't want you to think I'm just being mean. I'll give it to you since I don't want your lazy legs to start hurting," she sneered playfully.

"Haha. Thanks." Elias laughed awkwardly.

"Are you thanking me for calling you lazy?" Catharina raised an eyebrow.

"No, of course not, it's just... Well, never mind," Elias sighed. In a verbal contest, he would always be the loser when it came to Catharina.

Luan saw this and didn't comment. It wasn't the first time that Catharina had provoked Elias and he ended up giving in.

'Captain Elias eats from Miss Catharina's hand...' Seeing this new side of their captain, the twenty who were being trained by Elias were surprised, since it was very different from what they were used to seeing.

'The captain must like her.' That's what they thought.

[Latest news: The United States has managed to exterminate the monsters that threatened the country. While China has had many casualties, the country is close to exterminating their monsters as well. Japan and Germany are forecast to be able to stabilize in 1-2 days at most. The tragedy in India made them take more radical measures and they have begun to kill some of the monsters that looked like the animals they idolized. The UK is also close to stabilizing the country and has one of the lowest death rates...] The other countries were listed one by one, but all of the rest would take an average of 2 to 5 days to deal with the upheaval.

Some countries like the USA, China, etc. held clans that lived in hiding, helping them to fight monsters. The truth of their existence was no longer so advantageous for them to hide. Furthermore, they soon discovered that most of the greatest powers in the world were from these hidden clans. Many powerful clans were at least the rulers of their country, which came as no surprise considering these clans had centuries of history and special abilities that had helped them achieve a lot. However, these advantages were getting weaker with the arrival of the apocalypse.

[Now let's talk about the Dimas family: Luan Dimas, with his family, went to do god knows what on an island they recently bought. Helicopter cameras have tried to capture images of what was happening, but what they saw was a dome surrounded by gray smoke. Because of that, we weren't able to see what was happening. But we must ask ourselves, what are they hiding? Why so many secrets?

Can we truly believe they are the saviors of the country and not its destroyers? I mean, they're stocking up on all the monster meat and seem to know more than we thought: after all, Online Survival is a living example of this.

Maybe they already knew this was going to happen and were getting ready, but didn't have the common courtesy to let us all know?]

Of course, some believed many of the things said by the broadcaster, but then another Rede Globo journalist next to this journalist commented: [This is a lot of hypocrisy on your part! Really, didn't he speak? Really? Luan Dimas once said: Everything here is going to be the beginning of something bigger, and we need to be on the safe side and be prepared! After all, didn't he make the Online Survival game accessible to everyone so we could play it and get stronger? Tell me, where are your ethics? Are you really going to lower yourself to this level just for meager money, and end up making the Dimas Family leave the country and migrate to another country?]

[But...] Reporter Amanda was about to say something but was interrupted by Cleber.

[Cut! Cut!]

[No 'buts' Amanda! You are selling yourself and wanting to demonize someone who has done so much for the country. Amanda, look at the news you yourself have reported. If it weren't for Luan Dimas and his family, Brazil would be in an even worse state than India, we are not like the other powers in the world. Even the United States has only managed to normalize now, and you're trying to judge them? Honestly, I'm sick of it!]

They tried to stop Cleber from talking, but it was too late, it was all live. And as everyone was interested in hearing the news, a lot of people were watching and they ended up recording the program; it was too late to regret it.

Cleber on the other hand, with his head held high, got up and left the live show.

People who watched also started to think about it: What if Luan Dimas and his family wanted to leave Brazil? He was, after all, someone strong enough to kill over a thousand monsters in a very short time. This was something extraordinary, something any country would struggle to have. If Luan Dimas said he wanted to migrate to another country, they would welcome him with open arms.

Brazil's political folly reached the point of wanting to sacrifice thousands of lives as long as they remained in power so they could keep stealing money from the people. It was totally repulsive.

Some people became enraged and took to the streets; they wanted to abolish this discrimination that Rede Globo, as well as Folha de São Paulo, had against Luan Dimas and his family.
