Shu Maxwell

"I don't care what happens next. I can't let him leave. My brother will never go away from me. I can't let anyone take him away from me. I won't let my brother leave me ever fucking again! Last time, he left me for duty, but this time, I don't let that happen! He has a best friend who is closer to him than me? I will create enmity between them! Then I would be closest to him, wouldn't I? Then he won't leave me ever, right?"

Shu Maxwell is one of Ryder's best friend.

He was the unseen CEO of the Dream Corporation. Business and games were the only things that his life consisted of.

he get close to Ryder because he looked like his brother

## Appearance

He was somewhat short at 5 ft 5 inches and was a little fat, which looked even more distinct because of his short height.

## History

When people saw Shu, all they saw was a confident chubby young man who had everything that he could possibly want. They only saw a rich kid that possessed so much wealth that his seven future generations could be spendthrift and still not spend it in its entirety.

They were jealous of Shu. People thought that what problems can such a rich guy have? People thought of him as someone who didn't need to worry about anything.

They didn't know that even when Shu got all this property and wealth, he didn't care about anything. He was broken. He had been broken since his parents died, but his heart wholly shattered once the news of his brother's death and disappearance came.

He started closing himself and became more silent, but he couldn't watch the business empire his father built to fall. That's why even when he was broken, he didn't let it affect the business. He dealt with matters properly and made the Dream Corporation become even more dominant in the business world, so much so that his name was in the mouth of every powerful person as the business genius.

Despite achieving all that, he kept his identity and name a secret. Except for the true high-level people in this world, no one else knew what the owner of Dream Corporation looked like. Even online, no one could find Shu's name since it wasn't public. All the general public knew was that the person was known as Mr. Maxwell, and he was young.

No one else saw the struggles that went behind achieving so much. The Butler had seen Shu going confidently in board meetings and working all day but crying alone in darkness at night.

He had seen Shu suffer alone while not letting anyone see his weaker side. That was the time when Shu started looking towards Video Games to find some comfort and to keep himself distracted when he wasn't working.

Even after all that, his pain and trauma didn't seem to be healing.

The day Shu disappeared from the house without telling him, he knew that Shu went to buy a video game called Divinity, trying to see if a fully immersive world of Divinity can heal him a little. That's why he didn't send any guards after Shu.

He wanted him to be able to enjoy a day out. However, he hadn't expected how that single outing that day would change everything. He didn't know that Shu would meet someone who looked like his beloved brother.

## Plot

Shu first met Ryder when they both were standing in line for buying the Divinity game. Ryder saved him from getting taken advantage of by a girl.

## Description

Shu's parents had died in a plane crash, and he had no siblings. Thus he became the sole owner of the Dream Corporation, and he surprisingly managed the big organization quite well.

He increased the profits of the organization with his brilliant plans and was called the Miracle CEO by the media. Even after all that, except for a few important people and the heads of his own organization, not many people had seen him.

Why Shu was able to roam so freely without being recognized also showed the power of the Dream Corporation.

They kept Shu's image from leaking. Shu's image was not available on the internet. No one had his image, and no one was allowed to capture his image either. Only the higher-ups within the Dream Corporation and the High-level People within the society that met him knew how he looked like.

His name on the documents was not Shu, either. Shu's full name on the documents and everywhere was Schumacher Phillip Maxwell. He used the short form of his name when introducing himself, which was Shu.

Even the Feds didn't have any image of Shu in their database.

This was clear to indicate the standing of Dream Corporation within the country. The Dream Corporation was one of the biggest organizations in the whole world. While the others of other organizations didn't mind their name and image getting out in the open and didn't make any effort to keep it a secret, Shu was different.

Shu wanted his privacy, and he didn't want people to know who he was as he believed that the people that knew about his real identity would be the ones he would never be able to trust completely when it came to friendship since he would always have that lingering doubt that they came close to him for his wealth.

That's why, despite being rich, he didn't have any real friends until the day he met Ryder when he sneaked outside to buy the game called Divinity.

That was the day when the owner of one of the biggest organizations in the world got close to the person that was soon going to become a terrifying existence that shook the whole world and even the worlds beyond.

This unlikely friendship was something that Ryder hadn't expected, and he still didn't know who Shu was. When he met Shu and formed his friendship, he believed that Shu was just an Otaku. Even after all this time, he didn't know his real identity, and he still believed that Shu was the son of a wealthy tycoon who enjoyed the wealth of his family.
