Chapter 1 - Insane Noah Reiner

SOMEWHERE IN THE USA

Currently, a black shiny car stood before a giant castle. This car was the very definition of upper-class with it's Mercedes-Benz star emblem and spotless surface. The infamous Rothschild family insignia just even further heightened this feeling. That's right, this car belonged to that certain family. The Rothschilds are said to be the most influential family of the world. Their immeasurable wealth and long history caused them to be the center of many conspiracy theories.

One of these theories even says that the Rothschild family owns more than 30 castles. No one knows whether these conspiracy theories are true or not, but one thing is certain, this castle is not a Rothschild property. It's a hidden place for learning. A school in other words. A building which is shrouded in a veil of mystery. This is the learning place of the top rich and the learning place of the gifted. Thus, no wonder that this place is basically non-existent. Forget about the google maps, even satellites cannot find this place.

The neatly carved giant front doors perfectly complimented the roman style columns which were placed inside the giant lobby of this "school". One could easily guess, how the rest of the building looked like just by based on the details. Even the grass field around the castle was perfectly cut to size. The air was fresh thanks to the giant pine tree forest which surrounded the place. Parking lots were forbidden here. Thus, there was really nothing to disrupt the natural, noble beauty of this place, aside from that certain black car...

...

A young man stepped out of the black Mercedes which drove away almost instantly after that. The name of the young man was Jack Rothschild. He was a man with very white skin and combed black hair. His height was above average and an intimidating air surrounded him due to his always apathetic poker face. As for why was he here currently?

His family sent him here under the disguise of a transfer student. His only job was to find a person named Noah Reiner and get him to cooperate with the Rothschild family. The final goal was to acquire the fortune which was called the Reiner empire.

The Reiners are a mysterious noble family just like the Rothschilds. Sadly not long ago the last members of the family died in a tragic accident. The sole heir of the family, Noah Reiner was the one who inherited everything after that day. Many countries and powerful families tried to seize the giant fortune after the accident. Coercion, threatening, assassination attempts every day. Surprisingly, everything failed.

Not long after that, the superpowers realized that the Reiner family is more than meets the eye and the mysterious Reiner empire is still unmovable. The only family which has yet to make a move were the Rothschilds. Thus, no one was surprised when they heard that Jack Rothschild transferred to another school. They were even a little bit excited as the two families were regarded as complete equals.

Jack walked inside the castle. He was mesmerized by the detailed carvings on the walls. Walking on the super long corridor turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Jack. He stopped before one of the doors and didn't step inside the classroom. He remembered what his father told him about Noah Reiner. Noah is a super intelligent boy with a very crafty, childish and complicated personality.

Jack stepped inside the classroom and looked around. There were only 6 people inside the classroom aside from him. Noah was not here, but Jack didn't care. He decided to get some information about him from his classmates. Luckily, teaching has not begun yet and Jack still got some time. He decided to introduce himself first.

"Hello everyone, my name is Jack Rothschild. Probably everyone knows me here, so I won't waste more time. Let's have a good year together." Said Jack to his classmates, he tried to make his speech a bit more passionate, but miserably failed. His tone was still rather apathetic. He then decided to greet everyone one by one. At least, that was his plan...

The first person was a girl. She looked very cheerful, approachable and friendly. The extreme opposite of Jack. Her waist length black hair and round, slightly brown face paired with her almond shaped, almost black eyes gave away everything. She was a beautiful, short asian girl.

"Hi Jack, Nice to meet you, my name is Ling Mei. You searching for Noah right? Let me give you a piece of friendly advice. Never ever drink his tea!"

Jack became confused, but then decided to greet the others first. Surprisingly, everyone gave him a piece of strange advice just like Ling Mei. Everything became confusing in the end, but Jack noticed one thing. No one likes Noah. Jack thought that Noah is probably a very arrogant person as the sole heir of the Reiner family and that's why everyone speaks so badly of him.

"Okay guys okay. I will be very careful. So where can I meet him?" Jack just shrugged off the warnings. He decided to be more careful around Noah though.

"I can take you there if you really want to meet him." Ling Mei offered her help.

Jack followed his new classmate and they arrived before a door on the 2nd floor. The room was completely empty, just some books on the ground. Only one man was inside. This man slept on the frame of the only one window inside the old room with a nonchalant expression on his face. He was a little bit skinny and his skin was healthy white. His height around average. His hair was exceptionally long, very beautiful pitch black. Noah looked very innocent in his current state.

Ling waited for a bit, then started knocking on the wall with all of her might. "GOOD MORNING!"

Even Jack jumped back a little.

Noah slowly opened his eyes. He still looked very sleepy and anyone could tell this with one glance, but Ling Mei didn't care at all. She looked like someone who got used to this. Noah slowly stood up and looked around with his almost black eyes. Then he noticed Jack and something unexpected happened. At least for Jack.

"Yo, Rothschild boy. Do you have some business with me?" Jack just ignored this rude greeting and tried to answer with another question.

"How did you-" Jack was about to finish his sentence when Noah interrupted him again.

"How did you know I was a Rothschild boy. Right?"

"I'm not a boy and my name is Jack Rothschild."

Jack told Noah. He didn't even notice that Ling Mei already left. In fact, she ran away.

"Ohh don't be angry, it was just a joke. Wait here, I'll bring you a little tea and we can talk."

Jack completely forgot about the several advices he received not too long ago. Noah was just too infuriating. Several minutes later, Noah came back with two cups of black tea in his hands. He gave one to Jack. Then they started talking.

"Noah, as you probably know I'm currently here on behalf of my family. We know about your situation and... Hey Noah are you listening to me?"

Noah currently drank his tea and watched his phone screen at the same time, he didn't listen at all..

"Oh sorry, It was an important message."

Said Noah, but then he dropped his phone accidentally. Jack noticed this and quickly catched the phone mid air. He then took a quick glance at the phone screen. It was not an important message, but a YouTube video:

Fart Compilation 4K HDR Dolby Digital...

Jack saw this and decided to change directions.

"You know Noah, after some thinking, we, the Rothschild family decided to not help you."

But then Noah said something unexpected.

"You don't have to bother. Jack, you failed the negotiation. The Reiners decided to stay away from the Rothschilds."

"Negotiation?" Jack didn't understand at first, then he started thinking.

"It was all just a test?"

"That's right, ever since you stepped inside the classroom. They told you to not drink my tea. In fact, I asked them to tell you that. Then, not long after that... you drank the tea I offered. Why did you do that even though Ling warned you? That was because I said "Rothschild boy" right? I hurt your pride, provoked you and completely manipulated you in the end."

"Then what about the YT video? That was your stunt too?"

"Ohh that? Yeah, I did that because I decided to not cooperate with the Rothschild. Your mind is too weak. You don't notice the schemes, thus, you got provoked even though you knew that this is a business opportunity. Shame on you as a Rothschild. You even drank horse poop as a result."

Jack started coughing and vomiting when he heard that his tea contained horse sh*t, but then his eyes widened a few minutes later, when he remembered something else.

"You! Not long ago you said Reiners right? Not Reiner, but Reiners?"
