Business Talk

"This Dragon isn't even that strong and yet those Elves are already having a hard time killing it? What a bunch of trash." Yuki said to herself as she began to clean herself, thinking of how useless the Elves were for not being able to take down the Dragon. It was easy for them to kill it, they just needed to go back to their Territory before they killed it, so that the law wouldn't work, but they chose not to. As for the reason, Yuki couldn't care less about it, the only thing that she cares about is getting the rewards which was pretty big even though the job was easy.

"Wait! Don't go yet Lady, can I ask for your name? I want to thank you properly for helping us defeat this Elemental Ice Dragon." The Princess said as she got out of the carriage without caring about the maids and when she did, she was stunned to see Yuki who seemed as if she was the same age as her. She didn't see her clearly because she had her back turned around, but now she could see her clearly, and she could somehow tell that she was the same age as her.

"Help you? Who the fuck are you? I didn't help you, this Dragon is on my hunt list and I killed it. You are even in my way… though I didn't expect that the people from the Celestial Star Heaven would be this weak don't even start by saying that it's because of Heaven's Law because that is merely a joke. Even with that, you people will be the strongest Cultivator here, and yet… you can't even defeat such a weak Dragon." Yuki said in a cold tone and just as she was about to fly away, she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket.

Without caring about them anymore, she slowly walked away from them and took the call. She had a gentle smile on her face which shocked all of the people behind her and they even thought that they were hallucinating because they couldn't believe that the cold merciless woman who just killed a Dragon in the most bloody possible way could make such a face.

But the Princess had other thoughts running through her mind and it was how the woman in front of her could speak to someone who was clearly far away without using any Magic. It should have been impossible and the closest to where one can communicate with someone without using magic or limiting it to an extreme amount is either using Talismans or Communicating Crystals, but they have their own limitations because they have limited range.

Even the strongest and most expensive Talisman can only go about 1 Universe that is how big the range of it, while the Crystal Ball which is better can cover an entire Empire. Though for most it was still not enough due to how vast and big the world was.

"Wait, I'm sorry again. But can I ask you how are you speaking to another person without using any Magic? My name is Misery from the Lovan Empire. I'm the Empire's first princess, and if the Lady is willing to work with me, I can take your invention to the Celestial Star Heaven." Misery asked and when Yuki heard those words she stopped what she was doing, she then said goodbye to the other line before turning around with a cold smile on her face.

"Oh, so you actually were a Princess huh? Don't think just because you're a Princess I'm going to apologize, but anyway. To answer your question, this is my own invention as you have already guessed and it is called a phone and it can do a lot more than just call someone. But I'm curious now about what you said, from the way you sound, it sounds like you are experienced in this line of work. Are you the one who managed the financial status or just basically the businesses of your Empire?" Yuki questioned as now her curiosity was piqued.

Being offered such a thing was good and if it were any other person, they would have agreed without even thinking about it because getting your inventions and business to the Higher Heaven is just like a dream that is merely a fantasy.

"Yes, I'm the one who manages it all because I'm the one who is succeeding the throne. Well, it's not decided yet, but I'm sure. With my status, I can bring your innovation into something bigger. So would you like to strike a deal with me?" Misery smiled as now things were also going somewhere good.

She didn't lie with what she said as she was the one who basically managed everything, from the financial status, business, and just anything that was money related, it was all her. That is why she is highly regarded as the best candidate for the throne, but it was still enough as she was a woman, but she felt that if she struck a deal with Yuki. Her position as the Empress is secured.

"A deal, huh? Well let's not be too hasty now, shall we? How about we talk about it somewhere more appropriate, we can go to my office now if you want, or maybe you have a place in mind." Yuki smiled as she offered and when the Guards and Maid heard it, their guard immediately raised as none of them trusted Yuki even more now that she knew who they were.

"Alright, we can go to your office." Misery simply answered, that it was a big risk following someone to their own den when they just met for a few minutes, but she has handled thousands if not millions of people already. She can proudly say that she knows when a person has bad intentions or not and even if she can't fully read Yuki, she felt that it was good to trust her. Not as a person, but as a fellow businesswoman.

"Good, oh by the way. My name is Yuki, Yuki Ayase, You don't need to ride in your carriage because it is slow, you can ride with me, you can take your guard if you want since it looks like they are tense." Yuki chuckled lightly.

She then brought out the original Black Light which has already been modified by her so that it can go faster. (This is different from the one she uses currently). When the strange black metal figure appeared in front of all of them, they were confused as none of them could think that it was faster than their carriage which was being pulled by Snow Lions which was one of the fastest Beast in Mystic Dragon Heaven.

"It's fine, you all can follow us from behind. No need to be scared, we can trust her." Misery turned towards her subordinates before assuring them that she was going to be fine and that she didn't need any escort which they recorded, but one cold look from Misery shut all of them up.

"Fufufu… the more I talk with you the more I begin to like you," Yuki said with a chuckle as she opened the cockpit and entered placed her hand on the panel, and opened the backside where the bar was located.

When Misery saw something open, she entered it without fear, and she was pleasantly surprised to see how beautiful it was on the inside even though the outside looked very dull.

"We are not going to take a long time, my place is near anyway. It would just take a couple of minutes." Yuki announced that now that she modified it, she could not put it on autopilot as her software design wasn't designed to be able to control something that goes beyond Mach 500.

Misery was now more confused to hear Yuki's voice even though she was not with her, but she felt that her voice echoed around the room, and the more she looked around the little room that she was in. She felt that she had really struck gold possibly even more because she was seeing some things that she hadn't seen before and from the looks of it, it seemed that the technologies inside of this little room were even more advanced than what they had in Celestial Star Heaven. Just as she was continuing to look around, she heard Yuki's voice once more which left her even more confused.

"We've arrived. Wait a few seconds while I open the door." Misery heard Yuki's indifferent tone and it didn't take a long time for the door to open and when she saw the outside she was completely shocked. They were no longer in the forest, they were now in the capital.

"My office is this way, come with me," Yuki said as she got out of the cockpit and entered the building right where her Jet was parked when she entered, she was stopped by the guards for a few seconds, but when they finally realized who it was they apologized and bowed their heads.

Misery just kept quiet at this and followed, but as she thought that she couldn't see something more, she was wrong again. Inside the seemingly ordinary building were all the technologies that she hadn't seen before, strange-looking like vehicles, guns, and screens that were hanging in the air, and the most shocking part about it was that none of them except for the vehicle had Mana.

When they finally entered the office, Misery saw a woman who was working, but as soon as she saw Yuki, she stopped whatever she was doing, and greeted her.

"Master Yuki, welcome! It's rare for me to see you here, and who maybe this person is?" Asuka asked curiously as she looked over at Misery, it was already rare for her to see Yuki inside her own building, but it was even rare for her to see Yuki accompanying someone inside.

"A potential business partner. You can stop whatever you are doing for now, also get me some tea." Yuki casually said and Asuka didn't question anymore and just nodded her head.
