Is this your idea of a birthday party?\" Sheina asked, disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Michael announced to them that they were going to 'party', they all thought of large festivities all around the territories of the Nation of Reborn: the Kings region, Neo Orcus, and Angora City, with everyone chanting Michael's name in honor for his birthday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But instead, Michael gathered the new adopted employees of the Reborn company from the previous HammerStone company and began awakening their talents one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, Sheina. It's a skill give-away party!\" Michael said enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the leader of the adopted Rebornians, Butch, approached Michael with worried steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Umm…boss? What are we supposed to do?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael sat in his birthday seat (it's just a normal wooden chair) and gestured for Butch to come closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me what kind of skill you want? What kind of power do you dream of having?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Butch looked at Michael, not knowing if his boss was being serious. He thought this was some kind of weird job interview.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking it through, Butch came up with an answer. \"I want…I want something that will turn me into a volcano,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A volcano, you say?\" Michael uttered, activating his gift bestowal skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ChatJK4, can you do your magic?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Very well. Creating a customized skill perfect for Butch…]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Complete!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Bodily Magma Eruption]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— ★★★★\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Earth and Fire element\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— This magic allows the user to erupt with their inner power, excreting magma out of their pores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bright light suddenly glowed out of Butch's chest, which grew bright enough to blind anyone that looked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few seconds, the light subsided, leaving Butch the same as he was before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Butch looked at his hands, with his eyes flashing with understanding as the magic theory flashed through his brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Erupt!\" he shouted, and suddenly, magma pooled out of his bald head and down into his forehead, creating a literal fiery hot hairstyle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woah! HAHAHA YES!\" Butch shouted in happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, next!\" Michael said, gesturing for the next person to approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael spent the rest of the day giving away skills and spells to anyone who wanted them. Luckily, he also found a couple of people who could have a second awakening, which led them to find their true talent in another job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of the day, Michael was too busy to attend the lavish and luxurious party that Sheina and the rest of the Rebornians planned out for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael could hear the sounds of drums banging and trumpets ringing outside the Reborn headquarters from the festivities going on in the streets of Angora City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were posters plastered everywhere with Michael's face painted on it, forcing everyone to celebrate his birthday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Michael looked at Neo Orcus and the Kings region, he would see an even more fervent celebration. Fireworks and drinks flowed heavily, with everyone treating it as a local holiday to thank the man that gave them everything they had right now. Even the Dwarven King participated in the feast in the Parched Lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Michael didn't really want his birthday to be such a big deal in the first place, so he was very thankful to have an excuse to miss it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael now sat in his bed, alone and satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knock knock\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's Yuna,\" she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael got up and opened the door, seeing Yuna with her hands behind her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's up?\" he asked her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just wanted to give you something to celebrate your birthday. I don't know if you'll appreciate it, since I'm bad at making things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuna revealed a small wooden sculpture of a globe. But not just any globe, it was the Earth that he was so familiar with back in his previous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a reminder that no matter how crazy things may happen here, I want you to know that you can talk to me if you get homesick. We're in this together after all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael looked at the crude sculpture and realized that Yuna used no magic to create this. She shaved the wood all by herself, mistakes, imperfections, and all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this made it all the more special. After all, Michael had been so used to magic that he used it for everything he needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This small gesture was heartfelt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you,\" he said to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuna smiled. \"That just means you'll have to work harder to get me my favorite ice cream, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Michael laughed and swore that he would do so soon. After making him do a pinky promise, she left, leaving Michael all alone in his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put the globe statue near his bed and went to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, the Golden Road project continued at full force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Angora City itself, Michael instructed the Rebornian Engineers to start the full restoration of all the buildings caught up in the fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The library that had been out of commission for the past week was quickly built anew in just a matter of a full day! The houses whose roofs were destroyed were quickly patched up within just a few hours as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This showcased the full potential of concrete to the citizens of Angora City!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did they do it so fast?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They used that liquid stone thing…and it hardened in just a few hours…how is that possible?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look guys! They opened a new floor in the Reborn Department Store! And I think it sells sacks of this 'concrete' thing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clear difference in quality between the Reborn company and everyone else in Angora City showed why they were truly deserving of that #450 rank in the Golden 500.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it didn't stop there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few days after that, the citizens of Angora City woke up to see a wide road suddenly constructed out of their gates leading to the horizon!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sharp-eyed people recognized the material they used in this road to be concrete, which meant that this was the handiwork of none other than the Reborn company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And not even a few hours later, the citizens of Angora City were once again surprised at the appearance of large automobile trucks that came into the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These trucks carried lots and lots of products and resources that stocked up the Reborn Department Store with unique products only available in the Kings region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isnt this the Woodash powder?! It's so rare but they have a whole cart here available!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did they transfer Potbreak herb here from the Kings region without it dying? I heard it dies after a week of getting uprooted!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey…that road…where does it lead to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't long before people began to travel the Golden Road, leading them straight to Neo Orcus. There, they discovered a society so advanced that it completely blew their mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, they were told that to see the true extent of the Reborn company's power, they should visit the Parched Lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like Michael hoped, people began to travel to the Kings region to see the end of the road, the Nation of Reborn!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Road allowed people to finally travel between Angora and Neo Orcus within just a few days of travel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was already an amazing fact that brought the Reborn company a lot more praise and recognition from the citizens of Angora City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the real game changer came when they offered a taxi service using the metal carriages called 'automobiles'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was where the public truly realized the true potential of cars!\u003C\u002Fp>",1260,"2026-05-28T18:43:08.654Z","2026-06-01T04:28:40.908Z",1,"novelbin.me","28cb1084977dc43489b8f960b3d33abcec5a96e57cbbb0994aa7b047061c05d4","reborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-chapter-268","reborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-chapter-266",1164,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-cover.jpg"]
