Powerful fortress!

As the two lay on the bed, Nami slept soundly on his side, showing how content and happy she was. 

Meanwhile, Mizuto was looking at his tablet, and he was trying to get more money for his future acquisition. Still, at that moment, he also started to reflect, thinking about several of his business decisions. 

Frankly, he felt like this kind of life wasn't bad, and he didn't think that he could change. 

Moreover, even if he didn't do anything, he knew that he would be seduced by so many women, which made him helpless. 

Yes, if he could be faithful, then it was okay, but unfortunately, he couldn't, especially when his action was no longer just for lust, as it was also necessary for his future. Moreover, he saw the possibility of him being with many women at the same time. This wasn't impossible, and he thought that everything was possible, but he knew that each woman was different, and he knew that he needed to handle them in a different way. 

With this belief, he felt confident, and because of that, he decided to focus on his business as he realized that he had messed up. He knew that it might be weird of him to say this, but if he hadn't acquired a bank previously, then he might have been in a lot of trouble. 

Yes, he knew that due to the effect of the skills from various jobs that he had chosen, his business would be smooth, but as he had made all of those businesses into private businesses, something which he only owned, naturally, it attracted the eyes of others, especially with how profitable his business was. 

In this country, where most businesses were monopolized by the "zaibatsu (conglomerate)" and even many other financial firms from the US and other countries, being a single, lone business where he made his money alone only attracted trouble as there was no doubt that they would try to do everything to be part of his business or even acquire it. 

If it was in another country, he might not think too much, but in this country, where everything from energy, food, tissue, and many others were controlled by the conglomerates, he needed to be careful since they could cause him trouble in many situations, so they could take part in his business, dismantling them, and acquiring them for themselves. 

If he gave an example, it was how they might stop the electricity of his hotel, increase the price of the ingredients in his restaurants, or cause trouble in transportation. 

There were many ways for them to cause him trouble, but fortunately, he had acquired a bank, so he could also make a lot of allies, stopping them from attacking him. 

Yet, he knew that he needed to strengthen his business more, especially in terms of logistics and ingredients. 

The conglomerate might not be omnipotent, but it could cause him a lot of trouble, especially with the "Sapporo Beer," which he acquired previously, as most of the ingredients were imported overseas. With his skill, it was only a time before this beer would conquer this country and even the world, and because of that, he needed to strengthen his power to protect this company from being attacked by other companies. 

The media was one of them, but this was far from enough, as he needed to strengthen his power on the basics, which made him focus on logistics, infrastructure, and commodities. 

Somehow, while this might be weird, Mizuto felt like he was building the Great Wall of China. 

The Great Wall of China was initiated by Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, to protect his empire from various nomadic groups from the Eurasian Steppe. Later on, many successive dynasties built and maintained multiple stretches of border walls. The best-known sections of the wall were built by the Ming dynasty (1368–1644).

Mizuto knew that to protect his kingdom's business, whether it was from competitors or countries, he needed to create a gigantic and powerful fortress to protect it. 

Yes, the internet industry, such as social media and electronic items, might give a lot of money, but there are a lot of ways for one to destroy them, such as sanctioning, blocking imitation, and many others. 

In this world, the number of profits was just that, but there were so many greedy people. 

Nevertheless, he realized that no matter what the era was, nothing had changed much, and if one wanted to become rich, the fastest way was to become a robber. 

However, unlike in the past, when everyone used swords to rob others, robbers in the current era used markets. Moreover, as the world became more modern, robbers also started to evolve and dress like elites. 

Mizuto was also one of those robbers, thoughts, but then again, he wouldn't let himself be robbed by others, so he knew what he needed to do at this moment was to protect himself better. 

The best way to do this was to get more money first and then acquire all the businesses to strengthen himself, and because of that, his next focus was on the logistics industry. 

What about his warehouse?

Well, the warehouse was just part of the logistics industry, but this industry was more than that, and he was going to control this business first, so nothing could stop him in this world. 

"...are you working?" 

Mizuto turned and saw Nami had opened her sleepy eyes, looking at him curiously. "Did I wake you up?" 

"No." Nami moved closer to him and rested her beautiful face on his shoulder as she looked at his tablet curiously. "So, are you working?" 

"Yes." 

"..." Nami blinked her eyes, then asked, "What kind of work?" 

"I work part-time at a financial firm." 

"..."

Nami realized that her student and the young man that she had molested were more impressive than she had thought. Naturally, this also made her feel inferior, especially when she was much older than him, and with her age, it was enough for her to be his mother. Moreover, she was also a widow, a divorcee, at that. 

Being with him... if she didn't molest him or attract him with her mature charm, she knew that it was impossible for them to be like this. Instead, she knew that he would be with his stepsister or other young women. 

As for his previous words that told her that he would fuck her forever, she wasn't a naive young girl, and she knew when he was bored, he might leave her. 

Nami felt sad, but she knew that there was nothing she could do. 

'No, there is something that I can do.' 

Nami knew that this was the only thing she could do if she wanted to be with him, especially when his existence was as bright as the star, but she could still think about that later as she knew he was in love with her body much.

"What's wrong?" Mizuto felt weird when this woman suddenly became silent. 

"Nothing." Nami shook her head and asked, "Are you planning to go back after this?" 

"Yeah." Mizuto nodded. "After I take a bath, I will go back." 

"With this situation?" Nami put her hand on his erection, stroking it gently like how a mother took care of her child. 

Mizuto wanted to resist, but in the end—

"It's okay. Just enjoy, okay? It will feel good~!" 

As Nami entered the blanket and put his penis onto her warm, lascivious lips, Mizuto closed his eyes and lamented the fortress which he had built inside his heart was as fragile as paper. 

---

Coming home, Mizuto knew that he hadn't been able to talk about his purpose for stopping his relationship with Nami, but somehow, he could imagine the more he rejected her, the more she would even stick to him.

After all, even if it was a bit ridiculous, someone had always done something that they were being told not to do. 

Being told not to do something would make one wish to do that thing even more. 

Nevertheless, if he was cruel to Nami, he was afraid that she might develop a "Stockholm Syndrome" for him. Feeling helpless, he went home and thought of taking a bath again quickly to erase all the traces of his wrongdoings, but unexpectedly, he met Yuni (his stepmother).

"Mizuto-kun? Did you just go home?" 

"....." 

Watching the gentle smile of his stepmother, Mizuto realized that his attraction toward the mature woman was more frightening than he had thought.
