The Great Deception of Martin Kael
In the bustling city of Brightrise, a young man named Martin Kael had built a reputation for himself as an ambitious entrepreneur. To his classmates, he was an innovator, a visionary who had ideas that could change the world. But beneath the charming persona lay a schemer who had mastered the art of deception.
The Rise of the Phantom Startups
Martin had a unique approach to success—he never wrote a single line of code himself. Instead, he preyed on young developers, selling them dreams of grandeur. He would pitch ideas that sounded revolutionary, claiming he was on the verge of securing millions in funding. "I just need a prototype," he'd say, "and you'll be part of something big!"
One by one, his classmates fell for the trick. They worked tirelessly, coding apps and software under the illusion of being co-founders in Martin's so-called startups. But once the projects were completed, Martin would disappear, cutting all ties and launching the software under his name.
Joja and the Missing Credits
Among those deceived was a brilliant coder named Joja. He had built a medical diagnostic AI for Martin, believing it would revolutionize healthcare. However, when the software was released, Joja’s name was nowhere to be found. Instead, the credit was given to a mysterious investor named Edwardinical, a doctor whose true involvement remained a mystery.
Joja, devastated by the betrayal, started investigating Martin’s dealings. To his horror, he discovered that multiple students had fallen victim to the same scam. They had built Martin’s empire, yet they had nothing to show for it.
The Unraveling of Martin's Lies
Rumors started spreading, and soon, a group of betrayed developers joined forces. They gathered evidence—emails, messages, and source code—to expose Martin.
During a prestigious tech conference where Martin was set to receive an innovation award, Joja and the others made their move. They hacked the event's display screens and showcased proof of Martin’s scams.
The crowd gasped as screenshots and testimonies flooded the screens. Martin, caught off guard, tried to deny everything, but the evidence was undeniable. Investors pulled out, clients demanded refunds, and his reputation crumbled within minutes.
The Mystery of Edwardinical
Despite Martin’s downfall, one question remained: Was Edwardinical, the doctor, part of the scheme? Some believed he was just another victim, tricked into backing Martin’s fake empire. Others suspected he had known all along, using Martin as a front while keeping his hands clean.
To this day, no one knows the full truth. What is certain, however, is that Martin Kael's name became a cautionary tale for young developers everywhere—a warning never to build castles for someone else without securing their own foundation.
And as for Joja? He and his fellow developers went on to create their own startup, one built on integrity, proving that talent and honesty would always outlast deception.
