When Elena was two hundred and sixty-eight years old, her announcement on the state channel took the world by storm.

Her company had succeeded in creating a new kind of life-extension medicine.

It was different than the first type of life-extension medicine, as the new one could only increase the lifespan by ten years. But, its effects would be the same, and Evelyn believed the limit of the pill was around a hundred, so now humans could live up to fifteen hundred years.

Just a single announcement resulted in Evelyn’s company becoming the star of the world in a day.

Evelyn’s wealth grew at an unprecedented rate in the next few years, as the orders for life-extension medicine never seemed to end.

A single life-extension vial cost three million platinum coins, while its material cost was 2.8 million platinum coins. From a single vial, Evelyn made around two hundred thousand platinum coins.

In only three years, Evelyn made a profit of three trillion platinum coins, and it was even more than the economy of a few states.

Evelyn was finally ready to venture into other businesses as her monopoly in the medical sector was certain after her breakthrough into life extension technology.

It has been more than three hundred years since the competition for the selection of participants began.

To be precise, it was three hundred and fourteenth year, and when the year ended, another round of shining stars turned grey while white lights appeared on the platform.

Since the first life-extension medicine could only expand the participants’ lives by two hundred years, many died as they were not able to buy another one.

The number of disqualified participants was less than what it was in the first round, but it was still significant.

After this round of disqualification, the number of participants grew to less than one hundred and fifty million. It was still a lot, but when compared with the five hundred million plus entries, it sounded a lot less when only a few decades more than half the time of the contest had passed.

There were many participants who saw great success early in the competition.

One of them was Maria. When her journey into the world began, she had found herself in a vegetable supplier business.

Maria saw success early on in the competition as her business grew without any obstruction for several years.

Her earnings only grew every year. She was able to buy a life-extension medicine for her when she was only fifty years old.

When Maria was eighty years old, she became the manager of more than ten thousand acres of farms, which resulted in her having a monopoly over the vegetable supply in no less than twenty cities.

When Maria was one hundred and twelve years old, she finally became large enough to have a monopoly over an entire province of the state.

When Maria was two hundred years old, she managed seven provinces alone. She had also earned enough to buy another life-extension medicine since the cost of the medicine grew exponentially with every use.

The founding company of life-extension medicine used it to its full benefit and earned a fortune from every sale.

When Maria was two hundred and fifty years old, setbacks in her business became frequent.

Maria had entered into new ventures since the contest demanded a complete monopoly over the financial market.

Maria didn’t see any growth in other fields, but she had no choice but to continue investing even if it failed her.

Maria was here for the contest. The money she earned here meant nothing. It was for her to invest only and create stable steps for her to achieve the goal.

When Maria was three hundred years old, she was so much in debt that she even lost half her control over the vegetable supply market.

Things continued at the same rate. When Maria reached three hundred and fifty years of age, her business market fell, and she had no choice but to declare bankruptcy.

There were many like Maria, who showed their splendor since early in the competition, but soon dark clouds covered their shine, and they never got over it.

However, there were many competitors who faced dark clouds early in the competition, but as soon as the clouds dispersed, their splendor shone through, making them the dark horse in the contest.

One such contestant was Pento.

(A/N: The prince in the Bisan Kingdom.)

Pento had found himself in the world with a technological store, with the store’s focus being on communication.

For the first twenty years, Pento didn’t see much growth as his store had the same thing as other stores.

If his store was on busy streets, then he might have covered the excessive customers from other stores. But he lived on the dirty street, so his store rarely had customers.

Around the twenty-first year, Pento used whatever minuscule savings he had to travel to the city and began working as a receptionist in a store that sold communication devices.

Every participant got a book that made them learn many things related to their respective starting businesses.

Since Pento had a foundation, in no time, he got a job in a reputed technological company. There he learned about the various types of communication devices, which broadened his horizon.

Pento continued working in the company and reached the stage of higher echelons. It helped Pento get the life-extension medicine since the company offered a single vial of life-extension medicine to its higher echelons.

When Pento was two hundred thirty-eight years old, he had completed his two hundredth year in the office. He had also fulfilled the contract for getting life-extension medicine, so he quit instead of renewing his contract.

When Pento left the company, he was already a wealthy man with a net worth of several hundred million platinum coins. It wasn’t enough to buy the second life-extension medicine, but it was enough for Pento to start his own communication company.

His growth exploded like a bomb after that. In the next fifty years, his communication company became one of the top-ten device makers in the state, and in the next hundred years, it became the top device maker in the world.

Technology was the fastest way to grow rich, as when Pento was four hundred and fifty years old, he became the wealthiest man in the world, with a net worth of seventy quadrillion platinum coins.

In the next ten years, Pento splurged his vast amount of money like water as he entered into other ventures and brutally crushed other companies. In no time, Pento owned seventy percent of the market share in every business, except for the medical field.

The deadline of five hundred years was inching closer, as only forty years were left.

Pento knew what he needed to do to have his monopoly in the medical sector.

Using one-fourth of his wealth, Pento bought several medical giants and then began research into life extension, using his research in technology.

When Pento was four hundred and eighty-seven years old, he finally saw a breakthrough in the field.

When Pento was four hundred and ninety-two years, all the side effects of the new life-extension medicine were solved, so he introduced his new invention to the world.

Pento’s conjecture worked as when he was four hundred and ninety-four years old, the average age of a human increased from two thousand to ten thousand years old.

It was an exponential growth for humanity as other companies were only able to increase the lifespan of humans from a hundred to two thousand years old, while Pento succeeded in increasing that number to five times.

Humanity ushered in golden years due to Pento’s efforts, and it began to show in the medical field.

Pento’s market share in the medical sector grew to ten percent, and it looked like it would continue increasing in the next few years. When it had reached twenty percent, Pento suddenly found the view around him changing.

“Who did it?” A question rang in Pento’s head as he found himself back on the platform, failing to achieve the goal.

There were two or three participants with flustered faces on the platform as they were close to achieving their goal when suddenly they appeared on the platform.
