Thank you.

Standing at the window, Gentle Whisper placed a hand on the window as her other hand braced her waist with a sweet smile. Genuine feelings were bubbling inside her as she watched the scene between Kaiden and Practice take place.
"He cares for his people…" closing her eyes, Gentle Whisper let out an extended breath as her sweet smile deepened after.
…
Not much longer, Kaiden walked in the room covered in sweat as he pondered slightly. 'Is this game evolving before our eyes? Previously, we were unable to sweat...now look at me, looks like I went for a swim.'
To his side, a dreamy voice sounded "Key…"
Turning towards the voice, Kaiden smiled. "Did we happen to wake you? I'm sorry."
Walking closer, with short but lithe steps, Gentle Whisper nodded, with a hint of blush "Mn...but rather than that… I saw you out there. It was a pleasant sight. The amount of attention you show your people is admirable."
Scratching his head, Kaiden chuckled as by no means did he intentionally wake her. "Thanks, for my brothers and sisters I will be their support. As for you…I'll be your protector."
As her smile deepened with affection, Gentle Whisper ran her fingers down Kaiden's chest before placing her cheek there. "If I keep falling, I don't think I'll return from the abyss...but it's comfortable here."
As the pair continued their sweet talk, Kaiden began feeling bouts of tiredness overcome him. He had kept his brain in a continuous highly active state. That earlier boon of Energy was just the peak before the crash.
"Key, come rest… you're tired. I can feel it."
Guiding Kaiden towards the bed, Gentle Whisper coerced him to fall asleep and get a good rest.
….
That rest was sublime until the blaring sound of the notification alert shocked Kaiden awake—his magnificent sleep cut short.
Or at least, he felt it was short when in actuality slightly over 8 hours had elapsed. Due to the neural disorientation, if you rested inside the game it would feel similar to a certain degree when compared with the real world.
With that being said, Kaiden groaned groggily as he sat up, holding his head.
[System: You are receiving a voice call from General Sonic.]
Answering, Kaiden's brusque morning voice sounded as he tried to regulate himself.
"Kaiden, Ms. Blair will be here in 15 minutes. I will have her wait in the conference room."
"Already? Ok, I'll be down shortly."
Ending the video call, Kaiden turned over and reluctantly sighed as he felt slightly cranky.
That was until his fairy blessed him with her touch which dispersed his fatigue.
"Up, up, sleepyhead, you have important things to do—sleep later."
"Haizz… okay, I'll get up an-" sighing and voicing his grievance, Kaiden was interrupted by an abrupt kiss.
"Don't sulk, you can sleep here later." said Gentle Whisper
Nodding with a content smile, Kaiden regulated himself as he equipped his armor and swords. If he was meeting someone, it was a given he upheld his image. In light of this, Kaiden left as he made his way down to the conference room.
….
10 minutes later, a crisp knock was heard as Kaiden sat before the large desk situated in the room. "Come in."
With his invitation, the door opened as the clicking sound of heels was heard.
As the figure entered the room, they removed their hood causing Kaiden to rub his eyes as he thought they were broken. He couldn't understand how such a cold face could be so beautiful. More importantly, why did she cloak?
"Hello." said Snow Bunny in a frigid and concise manner.
'Now I'm sure I know this voice…'
"Excuse me, can you wear your hood once more?"
Startled, Snow Bunny shook slightly as her gaze cooled further due to such an odd demand.
"...Why?"
"Experiment purposes and curiosity?"
"Hmph..", raising her hood Snow Bunny continued to sit in the chair.
"I don't understand the meaning of this."
"Shh, turn so your face is at an angle hidden from my sight and say Hello again."
Trembling, a small pulling being appeared on Snow Bunny's left temple as she became slightly impatient.
"First...do not shush me. Second, do not command me! And third, do you think I won't stab your eyes out?"
'DA FUQ?! Oh god….not another Rosana.'
Sighing, once again Kaiden coerced her to perform the aforementioned actions. Of course, once again he was met with a nasty glare before Snow Bunny complied.
"Hello…"
'Oh hooo~ it's you indeed huh? Congratulations. You're a bunny in a hunter's trap. What an odd twist of fate.'
Sir, you mean plot armor? Try again.
"Never mind. Let's get back to the topic at hand. Explain your situation to me."
"First, sign a non-disclosure agree-" Kaiden abruptly cut her off by placing a contract of his own and sliding across the table in Snow Bunny's direction.
"Sign it and proceed to talk." said Kaiden as his demeanor changed completely.
"I...I don't like your attitude, I don't know who you are but I believe that tone should be lowered." glared Snow Bunny as she signed the paper.
"Oh?" Leaning closer, Kaiden's eyes dropped another huge degree.
"Would Ms.Blair care to tell me what she takes me for? Would you remain this stoic in a meeting with a Titan or even a Monarch-grade guild for that matter? Do you not place me in your eyes?"
"Intimidation will not work on me. It is pointless. You are you, so don't ask me about damned Titans or anyone else."
"Intimidation? I think you have misunderstood. I'm simply asking for your opinion of me."
Glaring at Kaiden, Snow Bunny crossed her arms "Honestly, no. While you currently hold momentum. What do you have to show for yourself? That ego of yours will be your downfall."
'Ego….ego...ego…eg-...e-...
Frozen for a moment, Kaiden's eyes spasmed. At that moment, vague, unfamiliar memories began flickering at a mind-boggling pace. The spasms of Kaiden shocked Snow Bunny as she was unsure about what was taking place.
Recovering, Kaiden panted heavily as he gripped his forehead with his left hand.
'The hell?'
Looking up, Kaiden's frosty gaze met Snow Bunny's frigid one
"So that's your opinion of me. Then for what reason did you meet me?"
"A reliable source said you were dependable. Unfortunately, I'm beginning to doubt them."
Laying back in the chair, Kaiden looked at the ceiling. His words were a trap that was ensnaring her and she didn't even realize it.
"Do you doubt that Guild Creation Scroll you previously used?"
"How do you…-"
"Quiet. You seem to not doubt that, so why do you doubt me?"
"That is the last time for you to talk to me in such a manner." glared Snow Bunny.
"My question wasn't answered." completely sidestepping her threat, Kaiden glared at her with eyes full of crazed murderous intent.
Although numb to intimidation, Snow Bunny couldn't shake that glare. How could one's eyes look that dead?
"You...you...are an asshole. I have done nothing wrong."
(What type of fucking negotiation is this?!)
"Nothing wrong you say? How can you approach a potential business partner in such a cold manner? At least become friendly, establish some type of connection to increase the possibility of cooperation.
'Although these don't apply to us as I'm not really here to just become partners.'
Looking away, Snow Bunny knew her faults. However, being headstrong she wouldn't back down.
"No, it was you who began this with weird requests!" glared Snow Bunny as she slightly raised her voice.
"Think carefully, were they really weird."
'Indeed she is one of those types. Control the momentum and in essence, you control her. Exactly how that company swept them under the rug.'
Thinking for a moment, Snow Bunny's cold inquisitive posture seemed enrapturing.
"You were at the Auction and heard me talk."
"Correct. And your identity needed verification. Now, who do you think the supplier was?"
"...! No way. If you were the owner why sell i-... You possessed more than one?"
"Correct."
"Your new project..what was it called? Or right… NeXus Energy right?"
Although Snow Bunny seemed indifferent on the surface, under the table, her palms clenched as they perspired.
"How did you get hold of that information? Only I and 2 others know about it. Who was it?"
"Relax, no one betrayed you...yet. I'm simply well learned in the business world. Tell me the premise of this project."
Shifting her eyes toward the paper she signed and then back up at Kaiden, she conveyed the idea of the project.
"It's a form of energy created when solar energy is processed. It is 17 times more potent and doesn't harm the environment. However, to produce it is ridiculously expensive. Secondly, with the current research, it is extremely unstable when it comes to production. Until the formula is completed...the costs will be incalculable."
"Tell me about its properties."
"In short, think of it as life energy but used as a power source instead of being used on life."
"Was that so hard?"
Glaring dangerously, Snow Bunny sprang forth and delivered a powerful roundhouse kick at Kaiden's face.
Unfortunately, it went completely from what planned.
'THWACK!'
Her dainty ankle was caught in the hand before Kaiden's face. Tilting his head, Kaiden spoke slowly.
"It's not very nice to kick someone now, is it?
[System: You have been attacked but no damage is caused, will you be activating PK system?]
"No." said Kaiden as he gazed at Snow Bunny.
"Let go…" uttered Snow Bunny.
"It's not very nice to openly tease someone now, is it?" repeated Snow Bunny in the same tone.
"Heh, what an uptight woman. Let's see. Would you like to be business partners? I'm guessing you liquidized company assets to buy enough gold from the general masses to procure that Scroll. Therefore, your reserves should be thin.
"Get out of my head...mind your business and stick to the project." spat Snow Bunny
"But it is my business, you see...I want your company."
"Do you really think I would hand over this company?"
"Tsk, tsk don't be close-minded. I don't want your position. I want the company. You will still be in power. Inform me… besides you, who else holds shares? Based on reports, they have all been sold back to the company.
"I possess 87% of the shares…what can you offer me that I don't have?"
"What do you not have?" asked Kaiden.
"... Never mind. 10 billion."
"10 billion huh. To my knowledge, the company is worth $4 billion at this moment. However, I'll do you a favor. 60% shares for $3 billion, 30 installments of $100 million."
"...It seems you really understand the workings of a negotiation. You're factoring in the possible profit of the project...Deal. However, the first transfer must be completed within 3 days.
"If you sign now, we can make this official at this moment."
"Aren't you...a little too young to have that type of financial sway laying around?"
"Oh? Tyler didn't tell you?"
"What?"
"The Fourth Head of the Sonic Star Media Group greets you, Ms. Blair."
"..."
Snatching the paper in a rather rude manner, Snow Bunny signed the paper. "With this...we are in agreement."
"I suggest you take care of the attitude of yours Ms. Blair. How would you find a spouse? Although beautiful...that attitude of yours would cause one to run away-"
Kaiden stopped because looking at this beauty, her eyes looked as if she was drowning in anguish as she trembled uncontrollably, tears pooling in her eyes.
"Ms….Blair?"
"...."
"Y-you have no right! Take that back!"
"Huh?"
"TAKE IT BACK!" frantically screamed Snow Bunny.
'What happened to her? I didn't say anything too harsh. Why is she reacting so violently?'
"No… *HIC* Take it back…. *HIC* Take it back…"
'This is!! Oh fuck… I stepped on a person's trauma!!'
"I'm sorry Ms. Blair, I didn't mean to…"
Unfortunately, Kaiden caused damage although unintentionally. Staring at the floor, Snow Bunny's eyes became lifeless and dull as the tears silently streamed.
'Asshole indeed…'
"Kassandra don't be consumed b-"
"Don't call...my name."
'?... Those eyes... they're like Practice's. That trauma is deep-rooted.'
Standing, Kaiden began seeing himself out. "When you're proper...you may leave of your own accord."
As Kaiden closed the door, Snow Bunny curled up into a ball as she silently cried, having to forcefully relive her painful moments.
"You're…*HIC* an... *HIC* *HIC* asshole…"
Standing outside the door, Kaiden frowned. Everyone had their own past, he had intruded on hers and because of that he felt awful. This was a stranger. Not a guild member—he lacked any idea to mend this tear in the lady's soul.
Standing next to the door, he waited. Time passed silently and Snow Bunny still didn't move from her seat.
Finally, an hour later with a tear stricken face, Snow Bunny exited the room. Her gait seemed as if she had no destination.
Holding out his hand, Kaiden offered a cloth to wipe her face.
"Take it back...please...It hurts."
"I know, I'm sorry. I won't step there again… I know what despair feels like. If one day you need an ear to empty your sorrows onto, seek solace with my ear. I will atone for my blunder."
"...Bye. No...Maybe."
As she left, Kaiden felt as if a piece of his soul resonated with the poor girl.
"This is like that time…" closing his eyes, Kaiden also relived the trauma as a spectator.

Due to utter arrogance and naivety, Kaiden committed an egregious mistake in the VRMMO [World's Destiny: Redemption], causing his previous efforts to be rendered pointless. Correspondingly, catapulting himself into a bitter, depressed state while bottling his emotions.

P.S I ran out of tags, but this novel possesses juicy drama also.

I slowly opened up my eyes at the sound of alarm. When opened I could see that Talia had left I already felt her presence leaving but was too lazy to open my eyes. I got out of the bed and looked around and saw a piece of paper. I slowly went near it and read the contents of the paper.

"If you ever speak of what happened yesterday to anyone I kill you myself. Also my number is  96******** call me."

I looked at it with a deadpanned expression and looked  to the side where a trash bin that was full of shredded papper are present. I don't need to look inside to know what is inside it she had spend 45 minutes and 10 white paper for writing the 2 sentence. she was like a school girl writing her first love letter.

I shook my head and throw the paper in the dust bin with the rest and went to have a bath. There was not enough time to think about things as meeting will start in an hours and  I don't want to have my secatary nagging if i am late. I took a nice long bath and went change into my business suit had to look good for the meeting. After changing I went to the door and opened to see my diligent secratary Mary waiting for me. I nodded and closed the she give me cup of coffee which I took and we proceed to go downstair.

"Good morning boss how was yesterday night ? Did you get a good night sleep?." My assistant asked me while looking at me with a side smirk.

"what do you mean ?" I asked confused hoping she didn't hear anything.

"well I did hear and saw a women screaming in front of your apartment and from the looks of it she spend the night in your room" she said innocently.

"Hahaha that might be your imagination. No one came to my room yesterday". I said denying it thoroughly.

"well to be on the safe side I should inform others ofcourse for security measures if any problem arises." Mary said thinking about her bosses very close female companions. I stopped for a second without any change of facial expressions and continued walking.

"Mary why don't you have a nice 2 week vacation at our new resort in London with your children this weekend."
like a man I am i bribed Mary not wanting another conflict

"Boss you shouldn't have.? well if you insist I will take upon your offer." and Mary accepted the bribe with out hesitation.

Both of us looked at each other and nodded in mutual understanding and proceeded to reach where our car is as we entered the vehicle Mary proceed to take a file.

'We shall be arriving ther in 15 minutes boss. Here look at the short description of her profile." Mary said while handing me a file.

"Read it.." I said not wanting to read  the file. Mary nodded and opened the file and started to explain.

The CEO of the company  Sarah Hawk a US born citizen she came from a reputable and long lined Hawk family while buisness of there was very large but after she took over buisness the company made a huge growth and can be said to best in certain areas." she said pausing for a bit  "well that is the basic of the company and hut any attempted buisness relationship with them had been been shot down by her whether it's Wayne,lex corp or the government any proposal have been rejected and most annoying is that they are arrogant as fuc.. I mean they are very arrogant" Mary said correcting herself and continued. "The company is making huge progress in various feilds and as you might know the the main reason for obtaining there partnership in this new project although it will not have any value to us this will act as  bridge for us to do further partnership with Hawk industries". she said closing the file.


"So how am  I supposed to take the deal with them if they reject all others ?" I asked curious of why she made me do it.

"Use your charm boss and seduce her" Mary said plainly.

My eyebrows were twitching "what is wrong this women's image of me." I thought to myself.

We arrived at the company building of Hawk  and noticed a person was waiting for us. He looked like a bodyguard and looking at us. Although he has a plain expression but one can feel arrogance oozing out of his face.

"Mr Raymond glad to have you come altough it will be very much appreciated if you aren't late our madam is a busy person and don't like to waste time on things that are unneeded." He said looking at me and Mary "well follow me I was tasked to take you to Miss Sarah" the bodyguard said and left without without saying anything else. I noticed Mary was glaring at the man hard 

"Mary.." I said.

"On it boss I am putting a hit on his head right now." Mary said typing on her phone.

"Intresting as it is  I was going to ask you to cancel my rest of my appointment for next 2 days" I said to her.

"well okay there is nothing important but what happened ?" she asked confused.

" I had other meetings prepared and forgot to remind you about it " I said not wanting to explain any further.

Mary just nodded her head not wanting to ask any further she know her boss has other secrets so she didn't pry into it.


We arrived in a office and he led us in. The office was luxurious office with different kind of paintings and extravagant design and in the middle of the office behind a beautiful wooden table one could see a purple haired beauty sitting on and to her side an another beautiful lady with brown hair. She looked 

"Mr Raymond Blaze thank you for coming all the way here since you are here let's start it right awaya as I have further appointment to attend." she said in a monotone voice and to everyone who heard it sound like not at all pleased to see me. 

I kept my smile but Mary although looked calm I can fell that she was going to shout in anger at the bull shit attitude everyone is giving but hold it in.

"Yes let's start shall we." I said wanting to start our meeting.

"Well before we are start the i would request non disclosure  regarding intel if any is revealed during the meeting for that certain conditions are needed" she said 

"Very well what are the conditions" I asked her.

"For the first condition is that due to contents of the meeting it will appreciated if you're secratary wait outside the room or downstairs. The rest of the condition will be said if the previous condition is met " she said with a clear hint take it or leave it

Mary was a second awaya from showing her a middle finger but I raised my hand to stop. I looked at her with and nodded but she looked like she was really adamant on saying "fuc** you to the girl". Mary looked at  me for a second and nodded back and left not before giving the CEO a stink eye. I slowly watched as my secratary leave and she closed the door.

"sigh.... Arise." I said in a monotone voice to the 2 people  to the people bowing in my side.

"We deeply apologies for the behaviour our king" They said in unison.

A reincarnated YGGDRASIL player was teleported to the dc universe



I don't own any of the 2 franchise. 

i am writing this fun

Alexander shifted to the realm gate and waited for Carter, who was the Head of The Secret Services to arrive with his best interrogators, in order to accompany Alexander to interrogate the sith spy. Alexander sensed Carter shifting with 4 more people who were wearing enchanted hoods behind him. As Alexander was connected to the force, he could now sense people shifting around him before they even appeared. 


Alexander saw that there were 2 men and 2 women with Carter. Alexander didn't say anything and opened the realm gate and entered the star wars world followed by the agents. Alexander and his company appeared in the basement of the building where the chairman lived. Alexander told the people to join hands with him in a circle and proceeded to shift towards Gromas. As Gromas and other planets were now a part of his kingdom, Alexander could appear on them from anywhere in the Galaxy within a second. Alexander and his company appeared in the jungles of Gromas and Alexander ordered a passing speeder to give them lift to the place where the spy was held. 


Alexander and his spies arrived before a hospital. The spy was injured quite badly while resisting capture so he had to be admitted in the hospital. Alexander didn't enter the hospital as he had a meeting to attend and people to subjugate. Alexander had a nursing staff which was a very hot and sexy green skinned twi'lek female led Carter and his companions to the spy.  Alexander moved inside a deserted valley and shifted to Corellia. Alexander transfigured himself to look like a middle aged human male. Alexander arrived in a giant meeting room and found the repersentatives from the 100 small companies waiting for him. The atmosphere was tense as all the companies were just getting by. These 100 small companies were small on the galactic scale but each of them was worth hundreds of billions of credits.  Alexander entered the room and took the central dias. All the representatives were staring at Alexander like hawks as the middle man of this deal was the Trade Federation and one thing was known throughout the galaxy that Trade Federation did not meddle in small time deals. 


Alexander spoke, " Ladies and Gentlemen!!! Thank You for arriving here. Now, please don't panic as the room is being secured." As Aleaxander finish saying this, heavy blast doors slammed down from the ceiling and the  room was sealed tight and after that an EMP pulse was released which fried all the electronics present in the room. Some people present in the room panicked while the others looked around in interest. A male rhodian spoke up in a loud voice, " What do you want us to build, human? You have employed such extreme measures to prevent anyone from disclosing anything." 


Alexander ignored the rhodian and spoke in a loud voice, " Everyone, please calm down!!!" After few minutes of back and forth, everyone sat down. Alexander took a deep breadth and said, " My employer has a job for you, all of you." Alexander's words caused another muttering to spread through the crowd as employing all of their companies meant that the employer had some serious money. A Twi'lek female dressed in formal attire, which enhanced her beauty, asked, " What's the job?" 

Alexander said, " To build 100 mining installations on a jungle planet."

The Twi'lek continued, " What we are mining?"

Alexander, " All of you sign this contract and then I will tell you." 


Alexander passed a datapad which stipulated the terms of the contract. The contract stated that the disclosure of the terms of the upcoming deal with the companies in any form by the companies required the companies to pay 90 percent of their assets as damages. The contract also had a weird logo on the top which was a purple sea which had a golden sea waves. It looked weird but beautiful. The golden waves were in reality, micro sized Sanskrit words which stipulated that those signing the contract would become the subjects of the Fortis Empire and any property owned by them would become a part of the Fortis Empire. Alexander wanted to test if digital contract would work or not. The representatives signed one by one and Alexander didn't feel them becoming his subjects so he fished out the hardcopy and said, " We want you to sign on paper also, so that even if a slicer changes the terms of the contract, we can be reassured. Everyone signed the paper and Alexander inwardly took a  sigh of relief but was shocked when nothing happened. 


Alexander didn't have the time to thing about this as the representatives were starting to get irritated. Alexander showed the holo-presentation of Fortis and spoke up, " Let's begin. Our employer recently brought a planet for himself in the inner region. It is a jungle planet. He want you to build the mining installations on these spots...." The map of Fortis planet lighted up with red dots, highlighting the mining spots. ".... Our employer is in a quite a hurry so he wants all the mining spots to be constructed simultaneously."

 A rhodian spoke up, " Anyone of us would be able to build the mining installations simultaneously on this planet, so why employ all of us?" 

Alexander, " It's a test of your skill and efficiency for a long-term project which would change you and your respective companies future." 

A middle aged human male asked, " What are we mining?" 


Alexander changed the representation and now the map of Fortis was mainly decked in red and purple colours. Alexander said, " The red portion is the deposits of gold of the planet while the purple one represents the deposits of another metal for which this test is conducted. The planet has a rough terrain coupled with the jungles makes it very difficult for the construction and mining to happen. This will be your test, the one who finishes first building the mining installations would be given 100 points and second place, 99 points and so on. Then, comes the real mining part, the company who has the most production in 6 months would be awarded 1000 points, the second would be awarded 990 and so on. The companies will be restricted to mine their highlighted spots. Our explorers have marked the spots having the same difficulty so no one would have any unfair advantage. All the companies will start the work with the same grade of machines to make the competition more fair. The companies who will try to pry into the purple coloured deposits would be disqualified and all their assets would be confesticated. Take this very seriously, the purple coloured deposits are the real deal." 

A nemodian asked, " What are the deposits marked by purple colour?"  

Alexander, " Pass the test and you will know." 

Alexander could see the greed in the eyes of the representatives. One gram of gold sold for 10 to 15 credits per gram on the galactic markets so the estimated gold deposits by seeing the red colours on the map alone, would be worth hundreds of billions on the galactic market without taking into account the other mysterious metal. The representatives were sure that the other metal was far more precious than gold due to the amount of secrecy involved.

The nemodian continued, " How much we will earn from the gold extracted?" 

Alexander, " One credit per gram of gold. The company who wins would get 20 percent from the sale of the other metal so don't try to argue for better rates. This meeting ends now.  The competition will start from 3 months from now on and one more thing, corporate espionge is allowed."  The representatives turned serious and started to look around them in caution. Alexander ended the meeting after that and waited for the fireworks to begin. 


Alexander was sure that the news and content of the meeting will be leaked and the powers of the galaxy would be quite shocked as everyone in the back of their minds had deemed many planets with rough terrains as having not much value. The reveal that a 'resourceless planet' had such massive deposits of gold and other more precious metals would make the real powers of the galaxy think of the resources present on other such planets. A new age of development would begin. The more shocking news that a man brought an entire planet for all it's natural existence and that planet had so many resources would entice many Galactical powers and second generation rich kids to buy their own planets. These currents would lead to the birth of P.T.O. ( A/N: Guess the full form😁😁😁) as per the plans made by Alexander. Alexander just need to conquer some more core worlds to make his plan come to fruitation.

Self Promotion by the author: My original story, 'The Forsaken Son' is being uploaded under Eastern Fantasy Genre.

It was three days later that Chan Ho Yin stepped through the portal, Natasha at his side, and started looking around in wonder. It's not every day you experience teleportation for the first time I suppose. Given that Natasha had spent the last two days on legwork before having Chan willingly come along with her an hour later I wasn't sure whether he was just that much of an idiot or Natasha was just that good, probably a bit of both.

Regardless, I held out a hand and said "Ah, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Chan. Octavian Raith, the sponsor of this little undertaking."

He shook and said, "I'm glad to be here Mr. Raith, Natasha was very persuasive."

I smiled, "She does have a way about her. But come", I turned slightly and put a hand on his shoulder as I directed him towards the team "let's introduce you to the team. Dr. Bruce Banner, one of the worlds leading experts on enhanced human abilities and our Chief Scientist."

Bruce held out a hand "Mr. Chan, it truly is a pleasure."

After the requisite handshake I said "Dr. Maya Hansen, she is the lead scientist on Project: Extremis. It's hoped that your gift will allow us to solve the final issue with the project."

Another handshake, "Dr. Elizabeth Banner, Dr. Hansen's second."

After she had given a smile I twitched a few fingers and sent a message to Bruce "Why don't you three show him around, see if you can get at least some baseline testing out of the way. I need to debrief Natasha."

Bruce gave me a slight nod "How about we show you around the premises, Mr. Chan?"

Once the four of them were out of earshot I said to Natasha "That was faster than I expected, how did you convince him so easily?"

She shrugged "Money. You would be surprised what people are willing to agree to in exchange for a million dollars per day, especially when the first million is laid before them on the table."

"Not what I expected, but then you are the expert and it did work. Good work, it's going to make a hole in our accounts moving that much around but I should be able to make it work. You have time to start setting up his accounts tomorrow or should I ask Elektra to do it?" I asked.

Natasha gave me a cat that ate the canary grin and said: "You misunderstood Octavian, the bargain was that he gets a million dollars in hundred dollar bills with breakfast every day."

"Oh, very good work." I said with a smile of my own "Using the un-laundered Black Thorn profits I assume?"

"Of course. And he even agreed to sign a non-disclosure agreement along with the various contracts, I assumed that you would be able to make that binding?" she asked.

I winced slightly "Not easily. There is a reason that the Covenant Tablet and the Black Thorn Table are so ornate and involved, I could come up with something but it would be easier and faster to just have Elektra bind a Chi compulsion on him to honor the terms."

Natasha gave a nod of acknowledgment, accepting the information and filing it away along with everything else in the event that it proved useful someday. "How does that work? I've focused on the more physical advantages of Chi, I just haven't had the time to study the more esoteric uses yet."

"You should make the time, it really is fascinating." I opined.

She elbowed me slightly before saying "Someone keeps me busy all the time. With Elektra having to handle New York, the Defenders and being all lovey dovey with Matt she hasn't been doing much of the fieldwork. And you are kept even busier than I am with everything you are up to."

I nodded acknowledgment "True, I'll see what can be shifted. But to answer your question, to perform the Chi binding you feel out the subjects Chi and wait until they honestly commit to a contract or oath. Anything that they perceive as inherently and willingly binding on them really. Then you use your own Chi to bind their Chi into the state it is in at that moment, from then on they will always be just as committed to the binding agreement as they were the instant they made it. At least that is the basics, Elektra throws in all kinds of advanced tricks and variations."

"Interesting, and probably good enough. How long do you think it will take them to get Extremis viable?" she asked.

I snorted "With Betty wanting a baby? I wouldn't be surprised if they had it ready for testing in two weeks."

Natasha had a sad little smile on her face as she said: "I'm glad Chan showed up when he did, I felt bad for her and Bruce."

I winced, remembering the simulation Bruce had shown her when she first started pushing him to get her pregnant. A baseline human was most manifestly not capable of carrying a godling of anger to term, not when a single kick could shatter her spine or punch organs out through the stomach. "I did too, thankfully Extremis is enough to make it possible. At least according to Bruce's simulations."

I gave her a one arm hug before saying quietly "And you? It has been nine, almost ten years since I made you that promise and it looks like I'm finally going to make good on my word."

She gave me a look, a mix of serenity, sadness, longing, regret, and resolute determination "No, I'm going to have my variant of Extremis keep me sterile. At least assuming that later versions will overwrite previous versions. The knowledge that I will be able to have the children I want someday is enough. Our lives have no place for children right now, and won't for years or even decades. Thankfully Extremis will give us millennia."

I gave her a searching look, my eyes locked on hers for a long time. An entire conversation of things unsaid, things that would never be verbalized, passed between us and I nodded "I think I'll do the same, I need no bastards dropping in my wake. Can you imagine it though, what wonders humanity will produce when death no longer limits us?"

"And what terrors," she said.

"So Russian."

*Emperor Tippy* 

Premise:
I saw A Twelve Step Program to Omnipotence and frankly, I thought it did pretty much everything wrong with an SI story. So I decided to do it better. And yes, this is still going to be a power fantasy wank fest - it will just be one that doesn't require absurd ass pull "luck" to work out.

*Chapter update*
--- 5 chapters every day--- 
---May update more---

Artificial intelligence was a word most people on the internet were familiar with. They usually played the antagonist role in the action-packed Hollywood movies, only to have their plans of world domination gloriously foiled by the protagonist.
It could be seen from the mainstream media that humankind had always been skeptical and afraid of artificial intelligence.
The perception was logical; they were, after all, beings not reliant on a physical body, both eternal and wise. There was no reason for such a "god" to abide by the rules of humans.
However, ventures into artificial intelligence research never ceased. From novels written in the 1950s that imagined the future of artificial intelligence to IBM’s development of Watson who could design a menu and voluntarily participate in contests—within sixty years, artificial intelligence had made leaps and bounds.
What about in another sixty years?
There was no need for another sixty years; the Han internet user could now experience it in the present.
An unknown software—as if carefully planned—entered the Android platform, 361 stores, and the APP store. The download number exploded exponentially, breaking one million downloads on the tenth day after release, beating Line’s record at six hundred thousand downloads a day.
This could only be described as a miracle.
Using common sense, it would still take great marketing to pull off such a feat. Otherwise, no matter how amazing the app, it would take time for anyone to become familiar with the product. Future Technology Corporation—it was a name no one ever had heard before.
Artificial intelligence? A changed algorithm with an increase in phone performance by threefold? Decrease power consumption by half? Automatic compatibility with both Android and iOS apps? Did they take all of the users for fools?
Fu*k, it actually has artificial intelligence that can speak? Siri is so dumb in comparison.
Fu*k, it actually increased the phone performance by three times! Even cheap phones can play high-end games now without any lag!
Fu*k, it actually decreased the power consumption by half. My Huawei has a battery span of two days now!
A chain of explosive reactions ensued, followed by an exponential number of downloads. The waves of good ratings and comments convinced the skeptical users to join the forces. In response to their shocking discovery, they also joined in promoting the app.
Future 1.0 officially caught the attention of all mobile users.
－
Within 361 Corporation's headquarters.
"I want to know the developer of this app, as well as the background of Future Technology. I don’t care how you do it; I want a detailed report on my table in two hours." 361 Corporation's president Zhou Hongwei sat at his office desk, rubbing his forehead in an attempt to alleviate his tiredness as he gave a task to 361 Phone Helper’s Project Manager Zhang Jianfeng.
"Yes." The middle aged man nodded as he hastily walked out of the office.
"Boss, is the Future 1.0 as scary as it sounds?" The assistant couldn’t resist asking after seeing her boss's gloomy expression.
"Do you know what artificial intelligence and enhanced phone functionality mean?" Zhou Hongwei sneered with raised eyebrows.
"But based on user dependency and..."
"Don't mention those things; those are applicable when the software are comparable." Zhou Hongwei rejected the assistant's point right away. "Would you continue to use an old flip phone after the introduction of a smartphone?"
The young assistant was speechless, unable to argue against her boss's point. Even if the book said otherwise, the reality was right in front of her.
"The introduction of the touch screen replaced the necessity to have fifteen physical buttons, but the Future 1.0 replaced the need to use fingers. The increased phone performance also broke through the limitation of mobile game development. The two breakthrough technologies exist on one software. Pity, if even one of them had been born in our 361 Phone Helper, I have full confidence that I would’ve been able to replace Penguin and become the new leader in the tech industry."
The thought of his horrendous defeat against Penguin in a battle for market shares enraged him to this day.
Zhou Hongwei's finger gently tapped against the table amidst the assistant’s silence.
Less than half an hour later, the door was pushed open.
Zhang Jianfeng did not bother to knock on the door as he hastily approached his boss.
"The information is here."
"Excellent." Zhou Hongwei immediately began reading the information. Instead of criticizing him for his informality, he was pleased by the efficiency.
After scanning through the document with a frown, Zhou Hongwei immediately handed another task to his assistant.
"Go and contact Gu Cheng from the technology's department. I give him permission to use any developers from any project. My only requirement is that I want to see a cracked version of Future 1.0 in a week."
"Yes." The assistant nodded as she stepped out.
Immediately, Zhou Hongwei gave directives to his right-hand man Zhang Jianfeng.
"Zhang Jianfeng, go contact Future Technology's owner Jiang Chen and discuss the possibility of an acquisition. If it can be purchased, then that would be the best option. If he asks for a price within 2 billion, I give you permission to accept right away. At the same time, ask if he is interesting in working for 361."
"Yes." Zhang Jianfeng nodded, agreeing that the price his boss offered was not too high. As the 361 Phone Helper’s Project Manager, he knew the value of this app.
2 Billion RMB? Even 2 billion USD was not enough. Zhang Jianfeng could only hope that Jiang Chen was too new to know the value of his software and would be shocked by the billion dollar offer.
But was that possible? Jiang Chen's own valuation for the company was over trillions.
USD.
At the same time, what happened in 361 was also taking place in Baidu, QQ's headquarters, and even in the overseas Samsung, Microsoft, and Apple technology giants who expressed significant interest towards the app born in Hua.
Acquisition, cracking, joint venture... A series of meetings revolved around the "giant bomb" that was Future 1.0.
－
"Marketing expenditure of five hundred ninety thousand includes creating impressions on social media, utilizing platforms such as Baidu, Wechat, and QQ, as well as other forms of advertisement."
Xia Shiyu had recovered from her cold. In professional attire, she concisely reported the company development before Jiang Chen.
The work could have been completed like usual in Xia Shiyu's home, but for whatever reason, the girl strongly opposed this idea. Using the excuse of the newly renovated office, she argued that the company should start on the right track and changed the work location to here.
The girl’s cold attitude made Jiang Chen feel extremely "hurt" as he had stayed with her for the entire night when she had been sick.
"What's the download number?" Jiang Chen leaned against the chair and asked in a lazy tone.
Perhaps used to his complacent work attitude, Xia Shiyu did not look displeased. She took out another report and continued, "Future 1.0's total download has reached 20 million, with the record high reached on the tenth day."
"Only 20 million?" Jiang Chen frowned as he was unsatisfied.
"This is not bad, okay?" Xia Shiyu rolled her eyes at him. As soon as she woke up from her sickness, the first person she saw was Jiang Chen; afterwards, the way she treated him became ambiguous.
"There are at least five hundred million smartphone users in Hua, and this is a conservative estimate. I only have 20 million out of this giant market. How is that not a little." Jiang Chen was trying to prove this point.
"It’s predicted that the user base will break the one hundred million mark by the end of August. Since our user base is too small, this is a commendable result." Xia Shiyu flipped through the document as she explained.
"You don't have to be so concerned. I am certain of your ability, Miss CEO." Jiang Chen grinned.
"I am not concerned!" Xia Shiyu rebutted.
But then she realized that arguing with the shameless Jiang Chen was futile, so she took a deep breath and brought the conversation back on topic. "There is a total of twelve companies that announced interest in partnership and acquisition."
"Partnership, I am interested. You can arrange a schedule for me; I'll personally chat with them. As to acquisition, you can reject them without asking for my permission." Jiang Chen stretched.
"Oh? IBM offered one point three billion USD." Xia Shiyu raised her eyebrows as she shoved the letter of intent into Jiang Chen's arms with a smirk.
"Hehe, I won't sell it for thirteen billion USD." Jiang Chen took the letter of intent and threw it into the garbage without a glance at the page.
Xia Shiyu's mouth curved up at Jiang Chen's response. She held the same opinion as Jiang Chen on the value of this software.
Suddenly, as if she just remembered something, she hesitated for a moment before she opened her mouth. "Also, President, I have another thing I want to confirm with you."
"What? You don't have to call me president, just call me Jiang Chen." Jiang Chen waved his hand.
"Please keep business and personal life separate, Mr. President." Xia Shiyu smoothly replied as she continued on the topic, "The quality of Future 1.0 is without a doubt impeccable. But regarding privacy, do we not need to submit a patent?"
"Privacy? There is privacy for software in this country?" Jiang Chen laughed at her rhetorical question.
Xia Shiyu was speechless, but she still offered her own opinion.
"At least we will gain the advantage from a legal perspective. If another company uses our technology without permission, we can proceed with legal action."
"Submitting the patent means we have to provide a detailed explanation of our technology. To be honest, I don't trust them." Jiang Chen was straightforward. "I am confident that within fifty years, no one will be able to crack Future 1.0. Moreover, in a couple of years, Future 2.0 will be introduced. As long as we remain the pioneer of this industry, we don't need a patent."
The nature of the patent was to receive protection and exclusive rights in exchange for sharing information. The patent required sufficient disclosure of the technical information which would allow people to replicate the technology.
But that was the last thing he wanted to do; how would it benefit him to disclose D++? He was not some selfless philanthropist.
Xia Shiyu remained silent. She didn't know where Jiang Chen's confidence or the fifty years remark came from, but surprisingly, she didn't insist on it and chose to trust him.
"Okay, since the majority shareholder has already made the decision, then Future 1.0's core technology will be classified as a business secret. The relevant privacy information would require you to discuss with the software developer."
His title was the chief developer of this app, but it was only a fake role. The setting disclosed to the public was that an overseas developer team created Future 1.0 while his position only required him to represent the team.
Just like deceiving Zhao Chenwu, except he was deceiving the whole world this time.
Do you want to find the real developers? Go ahead; it's in the other world.
Jiang Chen nodded as he didn't say anything more.
If a programming language developed 100 years into the future managed to be cracked by the people of this time, it would literally have to be done by supernatural activity. As an example, it was like asking someone to program using the C language when they had never learned it before. Even with the unencrypted code provided, the person was required to understand first; the only way was to guess and learn a language with stronger logic flow compared to C.
"On the other hand, considering Future Technology's growing popularity, I have contacted Wanghai University's administration and students to adjust the hiring time and location," Xia Shiyu said.
"Oh? You don't have to report these things to me, just give me a schedule, and I'll make time to take care of it." Jiang Chen shrugged.
"This is not a small task. Talent acquisition is critical to the future of the company, especially the first batch of employees—they will become the core of the company's operation. From personality to knowledge, everything must be tested under a strict process."
"Okay, because I trust your ability, I'm assigning this important task to you."
Xia Shiyu's face burned under Jiang Chen's "passionate" gaze, but because she had light makeup on, with her limited facial expressions, Jiang Chen didn't notice her odd reaction.
"Okay." Although she wanted to criticize Jiang Chen into at least preparing for the interview process, everything she wanted to say turned into one word.
"Then let's go with this decision." Jiang Chen laughed as he stood up from the office chair and walked to the door behind Xia Shiyu. "Call me if you have anything. If I’m not within the service zone, send me a text, and I'll call you back when I see."
Jiang Chen then left the company, leaving Xia Shiyu staring blankly into space.
[Is there a president this irresponsible?]
Xia Shiyu rubbed her face with her hand.
There was another thing she didn't report: seven companies extended offers to her as shareholder and CEO of Future Technology. These companies included world-renowned technology giants where every graduate dreamed to work at.
If it were like before, she would most likely have taken a look at this information. But this time, without glancing at it, she shredded it. Even she was surprised by her decisiveness.
[With Future 1.0's potential, there is no need to consider the tech companies that are about to get reshuffled. President... Jiang Chen, he is probably working hard in areas I can't see. Future 1.0 can't drop from the sky, right?] Xia Shiyu convinced herself.
She glanced at the messy documents, sighing at Jiang Chen’s work habit.
She organized them into categories before she left the president’s office, gently closing the door behind her.


After the nuclear war, ruins stretch across the landscape in the apocalypse.
If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermath of constant radiation.
But for Jiang Chen, this place is heaven.
Mansions standing tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.
What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. Your salary is two pieces of bread a day.
iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented is thinner than a condom?
Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.
Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possesses the ability to travel through space and time, as he witnesses the creation of an empire stretched across space and time... 


Now that the Horcruxes were out of the way he started his First project was to make a magical computer to make his next work much easier. Thus he went about creating a magical computer the hardware of the computer was a wardstone.

Thus he used the new wardstone design by the library which increases the magical efficiency and magical capacity for the hardware of the computer. For the Monitor, he used a mirror which would turn and show and true colors at 4k resolution.

Next, for the keyboard, he created a new type of typing layout which was much easier to use faster to learn and also had improved efficiency.

After the keyboard was the mouse he simply created a mouse which was ergonomic and comfortable to use and higher precision to use.

The next and the final thing he needed to create was a magical operating system. It took him 3 hours in real time and 15 days in mindscape time to design and improve it by some number of times. After that next, he created software for simulating various experiments.

After that, he got into his second study, the Language crystals. While examining the house-elves he noticed that both human and house elves language centers were similar thus. The language crystal, as he called it was created by using salt and creating a crystal using it, the languages could be loaded on it and ingested and it included all the documented languages. It was used to not only learn to speak and understand the languages they could also learn writing and reading of the language too.

He used the Spell crafting simulator to make a modified Fidelius called dual identity Fidelius which he planned to use to get patents for all the inventions and it would revert back to Harold Potter once broken this was his third project.

Thus he called Jeeves and made him cast the spell on him and the alternate name would by Benjamin Sterling.

His goal was his god family, healing Alice and Frank. Getting Sirius of Jail.

For the fourth project, he then started creating a bed which would be used as a diagnostic tool. The bed had the ability to link to a Magical ledger at which it would show the patients report, previous record, current diagnosis, and prognosis.

The Fifth project was the magical ledger it was also improved by him to make much cheaper and more efficient and easy to maintain. Almost to the point that even common households can have them.

He created the bed in 4 days. He combined both his knowledge of non-magical and magical healing knowledge plus spell knowledge to provide the cause of the problem for the known problems or just an in-depth analysis for finding the probable cause.

He then tried the bed in his home and it showed everything was fine for him except for not having proper fitness. The fitness thing threw him for a loop then caused him to think for a bit and he finally found the knowledge on body fitness after going through all the knowledge he thought there should have been easy being a spell to simulate those.

Then he thought why it was never created then he suddenly got inspiration it was the food and water intake. In a simulation for it, the food and water intake for the body was not able to be properly provided causing more harm than good.

This caused him to create another potion which he aptly named the starvers potion which was his Sixth Project. It caused the user to feel extremely hungry and thirsty for the next 72 hours and also causes the metabolism and absorption power of the body to be increased.

After creating these he thought who best to try it on rather than himself and he used it on himself. After 2 days he started to feel extremely sore and he noticed that the muscles didn't relax properly.

This caused him to further research into what was causing it and use a combination of massage and acupuncture to relax the muscles.

After 1 month of use, he was already looking, lot fitter. What he created was a bed which looked like the bed from the avatar, the bed would close from the top and the mirror attached outside to the bed would show the body condition and show the body diagnosis and then give a prompt to stimulate muscles and then it would simulate exercise in all of the body's muscles in an ideal way. After 45 mins the simulation would finish.

The next 15 min would be a combined relaxation method using targeted massage and acupuncture to relax the muscles. Then the patient would have to drink the starver potion and is given a listed amount of minimum food to be eaten. Thus he called the new bed the fit-bed. He documented all the process, the on;y downside or problem was that they would have to go to the toilet more frequently and this was the seventh project.

During this 1 month of fit-bed exercise, he did research on the cruciatus. He found a way to release the effect of cruciatus by a potion and then he further researched the mind, neurons, Mindscape, obliviations, dementor exposure.

Thus after the 1 month, he finally invented the Mind restorative Draught, Neuron regrowth potion, and Cruciatus relief potion, even Scar removal Potion(Causes all scars to be remade using magic feels like skelegrow. Only works if no dark magic residue). He even wrote a book on mental healing with the combined knowledge of non-magical and magical psychology studies for mind healers. These were his eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh respectively.

After this, he was working on the thirteenth project which was the magical media. Color printing for the magical world. Color Photography, Video capture Recording, Improved camera technology. He also was parallelly making plans for Wizarding Mv(Mirror-vision) and related technologies like phones, New newspaper the Magical times for an international level paper and Regional papers, Based on his knowledge of each of the magical societies.

Research during his color printing made him also research the reasons for still using Parchment in the Magical world.

It turns out that the reason was the same with the quill, It holds magical signature well and magical contracts made in parchments were stronger than paper, but also another the reason was that it was more durable and less prone to damage due to time.

This caused him to research paper and how to make it more magically stronger and have the same properties or even those stronger than Parchment. He then made a paper creation technique for the magical world with a mix of magic and mechanics.

He took all the modern paper technology and research and took it into the next level. The major problem for the paper was the durability of the paper.

It was caused by cellulose fiber chain lengths. But he solved this problem magically, this caused the paper to be more durable than parchment but still maintain the flexibility of paper and he also included a magical potion in the creation which strengthened the magical retaining capacity of paper and further improved durability by giving it some resistance to water damage, biological damage, chemical, and potion induced damage and also included a Magical xerox machine to successfully copy looks exactly the same or make it more printed version of the book. This was paper was called Shield paper his fourteenth project.

His fifteenth the project was Ward system, now he planned to create new security wards including sensing wards, cameras linked to Mv to show intruder and auto recording system, as well improving existing wards as he already had knowledge of even goblin wards.

He used knowledge from both magical and non- magical security to create a new ward system for the current wizarding world. Even going so far as creating wards to hide from even satellite imagery.

For his own properties, he went and created wards scheme and included a computer program for detecting intruders and automatically programmed defenses. Then went and updated the wards of all the properties.

Then he noticed that he hadn't found many hygiene products in the magical world. It was okay their magic protects from muggle diseases but it doesn't mean they should only have the luxury products for the rich.

Thus his the sixteenth project was the Health and Hygiene of the magical world.

For this, he created a Shaving spell which shaved for the exact length and shape of a beard he required and beard product for maintaining it.

Ear cleansing spell removes unnecessary wax and dust from ears.

Magical body wash which cleans dead skin removes dirt, grime, foreign substances on the skin and germs, Moisturizer and other skin care products combined.

Magical toothcare devices which cleanse your teeth, tongue and automatic mouth freshener.

Magical Haircare product for the different type of hair, ranging from strength 1 to 10. Spell for detecting the required strength of the product. Removes dead skin, disconnected hair, Cleans all foreign items in hair and scalp including dirt, grime, insects, dandruff, germs. A Hairstyle mirror shows different hairstyles on you.

Cleaning Detergents and maintenance agents for all surfaces.

His the seventeenth and final project for this research stretch was veritaserum. He knew that people with strong enough metal shields were able to resist the effects of veritaserum. Thus he wanted to improve it.

He made it so that it did not have the problems of the veritaserum like health issues etc. He also made it so that it was combined with the mind restorative draught to uncover any and all obliviations and mind damage. He named it the concoction of absolute truth.

Following all the inventions he took rest for the next week. Then he got going to Gringotts.

He went to directly to sharpclaw and told him that he had an appointment with Ragnok.

After meeting up with Ragnok Harold told Ragnok his plan of the future.

He gave Ragnok books of Banking systems, Financial Mangement, New ward systems, Magical Ledger and wardstone technology on the written agreement that the Sword of Gryffindors, Ravenclaw diadem, Slytherin Locket, Hufflepuff Chalice's ownership was permanently relinquished by the Goblin Nation. He did this as a test for Ragnok to see if he was worthy of Harold's Friendship.

After the intense internal struggle, Ragnok accepted. Seeing that he did not make a mistake in choosing his friends. He gave them Permission to search all his vaults and properties except the black properties because he wasn't the lord black for goblin items whose Agreement was over.

But they needed to show each and every item they collected and the corresponding agreement for the item before taking it back. He would use this knowledge to remake the items at home.

After that, they wished each other goodbye and reached home and slept.

The next day, Landon woke up early and headed over to the estate where the newly arrived slaves were staying.
This batch was the largest that they had ever received... and would also be the last batch of slaves that Landon would take in for the time being. 
They had welcomed a total of 19,498 people from all 3 underground camps.
Everyone was young, fit and able.... with the women being all below the age of 26, while the men were all below the age of 34.
58% of the population were female... while the rest were male.
During their mission to the last 2 underground camps, they had realised that the city lords of these places had kept over hundreds of slave boys locked up in several large estates.
Apparently, these city lords had been slowly torturing and training them tirelessly... so that they could become knights under their rule.
The men were trained to be fighters, while the women were typically used as objects for lust.
These men were never allowed to leave the estates, until they had given their loyalty to these city lords.
In essence..... they resembled those ancient Roman gladiators back on earth, who fought and lived in the Colosseums their entire lives.
Spartacus was an example of such gladiators.
They were never allowed to leave the Colosseum, until they fought for their freedom about a hundred times.
Sometimes, they would battle each other... while other times, they would fight ferocious beasts.
Some had ended but fighting for more than 30 years without even winning their freedoms back.
The amount of winnings needed for freedom were just too much.... it was almost like the Roman's didn't want them to leave.
The only difference between these rescued men and those ancient Roman's, was that these ones weren't fighting with each other in front of a massive crowd.
These ones would never be freed....  they were being trained as part of Nopline's army for future wars.
Freedom was not an option.
The people of this world thought that it was a total waste to have men kill each other just for fun... so they let the women do those fights in the underground camps instead.
Men were seen as valuable resources for power.
.
Anyway, when they had sucessfully rescued some of the women at the 2nd camp... a few had said that they wouldn't leave without their brothers, which had left Landon thoroughly surprised.
He had no idea about these estates... so they quickly made up another plan that same night, and hurriedly rescued those 'gladiator' men.
So of course after rescuing those at the 2nd and 3rd  cities.... he had no choice but to go back to the 1st city that he had attacked and free those other 'gladiators' as well.
This while ordeal made him spend more time than he'd planned on this mission.... but it was definitely worth it.
Some of these men had been in those estates since they were 9 years old.. and had never left the place since then.
They had probably been whipped, bullied and beaten by their instructors for being weak.
Some had been there for more than 9 years now, making them had more combat experience when compared to other.
This was perfect... as he needed more military men for the Marines, Navy and so on.
But amongst these men, he was also sure that there would be many who wouldn't want to ever touch a sword again.
This was still okay, as more workers were still needed around Baymard as well.
No matter how he looked at it, this mission was truly a blessing in disguise to him.
Baymard had gotten more money, animals, over 18 carts of free grains.. which he would've probably bought from Santa.... as well as more people.
It was definitely a win-win situation for Baymard... as well as Carona.
.
Standing before the crowd, Landon quickly gave a shirt speech that summarized Baymard's rules and regulations and so on.
Amongst the group of 19,498 slaves:
•1,207 were children below the ages of 15 (public school)
•370 volunteered to join the hospital.
•92 decided to be teachers at the public school.
•419 decided to join the Business Academy for training accountants.. and so on, since they were learned.
•398 Government Officials... for working at agricultural council, Environmental safety council and so on.
•112 decided to be caretakers
•251 decided to be cooks
•And 7,620 volunteered to be in the military and other citizen protection forces.
From this group that still chose to still fight, Landon had decided to send
  ▪1,000 to the army
  ▪1500 to Navy,
  ▪1500 Coast Guards,
  ▪1500 to the Marines
  ▪800 as Police Officers
  ▪800 as Security Guards 
  ▪520 as Firefighters
Of course when Landon had made it clear that women could join in as well, several girls had volunteered too....as they felt like they had to  get strong enough to protect their younger ones too.
.
Overall, after clearing out all the volunteers, Landon was left with 9,030 workers... which he divided up amongst all the industries and workplaces around Baymard.
He sent some to the newly established Oil industry as well.
Ever since Winter, he had specifically told them to start building individual industries for several products.
Previously, oil production was a branch under the Alchemy industry.
But now, they had finally finished construction on its separate industry.... a little distance from the Alchemy industry.
The overseer for this industry, was one of Wiggins friends... as well as the Supervisor who used to look after the oil production department.
So with his expertise and experience, Landon felt like he had left the industry in safe hands.
Apart from the oil Production plant, several other industries like Rubber, Plastic, Light bulb production industries..... were still under construction.
So once they were done, they would move out immediately as well.
Of course many departments like the car manufacturing companies, the weapon manufacturing industry and so on.... had already moved out long ago.
Bottom line, construction was always going on in Baymard... and several projects were already underway.
"Now that you all are settled, please kindly follow these officials and get your Identification cards done immediately... as well as sign non-disclosure agreements too." 
.
10:43 A.M
After dealing with the new recruits, Landon quickly looked at his watch and hurriedly made his way to the Construction Industry.
Yesterday, he had told Tim to select 1,000 construction workers for today's project.


Chu Yi dies in a car crash and becomes Landon Barn, the illegitimate son of king Barn, ruler of Arcadina. Because his mother was a maid and the king’s greatest disgrace, his father had always despised him. The same could be said for his half-siblings. 

When he turned 15, his father had announced that the city of Baymard would be given to him, and would no longer be under the empire's control. It was a well known fact that Baymard’s lands were barren, and poverty stricken.... For god’s sake, this was banishment.

His deadbeat father had indirectly banished him from the empire.

Chu Yi woke up in a carriage, on his way to Baymard with a system

"So what if my father hates me? So what if I’m banished?.... I will turn my territory into a modern society"

INT. - SILVER CITY COLLEGE - MORNING

Kinsey did her best not to grin at the tall redhead on the other side of her desk, just from sheer excitement. It seemed like she'd been badgering Gerri forever about the book resting on the surface of her desk, the red leather cover bent and worn with age, writing rubbed off so only the faint impression of where the words had been remained.
The blonde anthropologist had no idea what changed her detective friend's mind. Maybe the acceptance of her own abilities, or the fact they had just dealt with a man who couldn't die-Kinsey still blushed at the memory of Jordan and the effect he had on her-which made it impossible for Gerri to deny what they now faced.
Regardless, the fact Gerri sat at all was a miracle in itself. Sure, her crossed foot bobbed, cowboy boot toe dancing on the end of her jiggling knee, a stern and slightly wild look gracing her face. But she was sitting. About as big a miracle as the moment the red-haired Amazon crossed the threshold of Kinsey's office and asked to talk about paranormals.
The "weird", as Gerri called it. Kinsey wasn't about to deny the very thing she'd wanted since the three friends- their medical examiner compatriot Ray part of the deal-reconnected here in Silver City.
"Here's what I know," Kinsey said, falling purposely into teacher mode, seeing Gerri visibly relax as her voice soothed the bigger woman with its practiced, soft firmness. Kinsey's fingers slid over the book as she spoke, ridges hard under her touch. "There seem to be six main races outside of humans, all with specific abilities and gifts." Gerri shuddered slightly, but didn't comment. "There are also cross races created by the interbreeding of the six main ones, in an astonishingly vast array of possibilities." At least, that was her guess. Telling Gerri she knew this for certain was, after all, a bit of a stretch. In fact, the book she'd received from the exorcist priest, Father Dante Delacruz, told her very little of what she shared with Gerri. Instead, she'd pieced together the research she'd done on the artifacts she studied under the oddly unwatchful care of Simone Paris. Kinsey had no doubt the woman had her own agenda, and working on the project for her made it difficult for Kinsey to help Gerri on her cases thanks to her involvement with suspected drug kingpin and nightclub owner, Julian Black. But Kinsey couldn't seem to drag herself away from the fascinating artifacts she studied almost daily in the Black mansion, though she was certain now she had the majority of the symbols copied and carefully smuggled out of the private room.
Weird how she felt little to no guilt about breaking her non-disclosure agreement with Simone. Maybe if the woman had required her to sign a contract... but this was bigger than Simone, bigger than Kinsey or the Collective of All Souls who claimed ownership of the artifacts. This was, in Kinsey's estimation, the biggest single discovery mankind had yet to uncover. And she planned to be in a position to be of help or guidance when the world did finally find out that humans were only a small part of the population of the planet.
Gerri's hand tightened in her lap and Kinsey swallowed, realizing she'd let her mind wander and had fallen silent for too long.
"What races?" The detective's voice sounded rough, heavy. But, she was still listening. Kinsey had faith in the survival of the Universe when Gerri listened.
She looked down at the book, though she didn't need to open it to rattle them off, the symbols and names now burned into her memory.
"Vampir," she said, stressing the word carefully. "Nothing like vampires of pop culture, though. Nothing undead about them." Kinsey's fingers tapped softly on the surface of the book. "Healers, for the most part. I think Ray might be one of them."
Gerri stayed silent, though her eyes narrowed. They both knew their medical examiner friend's ability to identify the cause of death of some of her patients plagued her. Seeing their deaths so clearly had to be unsettling, something she'd been able to do since she was a child. Kinsey now suspected it was only humans, and not paranormals, Ray had such trouble with. That only those without power were open to being read, their deaths an open book to their friend. But it was hard to prove without an actual experiment and Kinsey wasn't sure Ray was inclined to participate.
"Go on," Gerri said. Not impatient, exactly, but insistent.
"Cubi," Kinsey said. "You remember Aisling, the dancer from the Starlet Lounge?" The detective nodded. "She was cubi." The lack of a heart was a dead giveaway. "They feed on the love of others." Sick, really. "Secret keepers to the other races. Fascinating."
Gerri licked her lips. "If you say so."
Kinsey went on before he friend could bolt. "Danu," she said. "Think elves, but not really." It was the best description she could come up with. "Diplomats, mediators and law makers."
"You talk about them like they fill those roles right now." Gerri was definitely regretting her decision, Kinsey could see it on her face. But, she stayed where she was, hands clenching and unclenching in her lap, foot bobbing at a rapid rhythm.
Kinsey nodded, wishing there was a way to break it to the redhead gently. "Gerri," she said, "they are."
The detective exhaled heavily, rubbing her hands over her face. "That's three."
"Next is the dervish," Kinsey said, her own stomach tightening at the thought. "They are the most mentioned in the book." Tap, tap over the rough leather. "What the church consider devils or demons. Highly charismatic, but heartless, sociopathic, who feed on the souls of others."
Gerri's green eyes darkened as the creature inside her wakened. Kinsey wasn't looking forward to talking to her about that. "Are you thinking about who I'm thinking about?"
The reference was obvious and had been to Kinsey since she finally understood who the races were. "Gideon Orter," she said of the Grand Prophet of the Collective of All Souls.
Gerri nodded, jaw jumping. But, she seemed less agitated than before, more focused. "Two more."
Kinsey hesitated, but forged on when her friend's nostrils flared in agitation. "The bheast," she blurted. The redhead shifted in her seat in response, as if understanding it was she Kinsey referenced. "Warriors, capable of feats of massive strength and speed, powerful intuition and heightened sense of loyalty." Whether Gerri wanted to believe it or not, Kinsey just described her to a fault.
The redhead looked away, out the window, fine beads of sweat standing out on her upper lip. "That's me," she whispered into the sudden quiet.
Kinsey wished she could rise and hug her friend, but knew as Gerri's whole body tensed the comfort wouldn't be welcome. To her credit, the detective exhaled again before turning back, wiping at her face again before shrugging.
"Finally," Kinsey said, rushing on, "the Nightshades."
Gerri cocked her head to one side, frowning. "You?"
"Perceptive," Kinsey said with a wry lip twist, her heart pounding, excitement making her lips twitch with the need to grin. Knowing at last what she was made her giddy with the need to understand more. "The Nightshades are the rulers of the other races, their ability to control the minds of others granting them the power over all." Kinsey shivered inside. Ever since she could remember, she'd been able to manipulate and influence those around her with the subtle touch of her mind. Now she understood why, though wondered at the weakness of her ability.
"And humans," Gerri said. "The seventh race."
Kinsey sat back, hands steepling in front of her as she considered what to say about that. "They used to be slaves," she said, "from what I can tell. But the Nightshades decided to set them free for some reason." That part still confounded and confused her. She waved off Gerri's intake of breath, knowing what the redhead was going to ask. "No clue why," she said. "But since then, the paranormal races have gone into hiding and only the church has made a point of hunting those who show ability, though I doubt even they know why anymore."
"The artifacts you're studying," Gerri said, pointedly refusing to say Simone's name, Kinsey noticed, "how much history are they giving you?"
"More than the book," she said, caressing it once again. "The church's interpretation included hellfire and brimstone, exorcisms and devils born on earth. All dogma and lies, of course. But, I can see how humans-especially coming out of the Dark Ages and into the influence of the Church-might see anyone as different from them as being in league with the Devil."
"Which means we can't really trust what's in there." Gerri pointed at the book, green eyes careful.
Kinsey could see her friend's attempt at brushing this off, could feel it. And sighed, shaking her head. "I have more than enough confirmation from the artifacts to back up everything I've read," she said to Gerri's visible irritation. "While the Church's goals might have been to deny and eradicate all paranormals without fully understanding why, the translations of the artifacts give a solid enough basic history for me to confirm the truth." She refused to back down when Gerri's creature-her bheast-rose in her eyes to challenge her. "Like it or not, we have proof, Gerri. We're not human. And it's likely a large percentage of the population aren't either."
Kinsey let that sink in a moment. Gerri fussed and shifted, scowled and grumbled. But the detective wasn't a fool or so stubborn she'd refuse to accept the writing on the wall. At least, Kinsey hoped not. When the redhead met her eyes again at last, there was enough grim acknowledgment in her gaze Kinsey relaxed.
"How much longer do you need with the artifacts to get what you can from them?" Gerri's question surprised her, as did her acceptance. Kinsey shrugged.
"I'm mostly done now," she said, understanding her mistake the moment she spoke. The detective's green eyes sparked as she dropped her foot to the floor from her knee with a heavy thump, leaning forward to glare at the blonde.
"Then why the hell," the detective snarled, "are you still working for Simone Paris?"
Well, damn it, Kinsey thought. How could she explain to the redhead about the odd compulsion she felt to continue studying the artifacts? That the draw was almost an addiction? That Kinsey herself mostly refused to accept her curiosity was the only thing keeping her at the mansion? Hard to ignore it with Gerri glaring her full in the face.
"Kins." The detective's big hands settled on the desk, intensity coming from her in waves. "You need to get the hell away from that woman."
Kinsey knew and understood Gerri was right. "I know," she said, surprised how low and controlled her own voice was. "I think Simone is part Nightshade too, Gerri. And possibly dervish."
Gerri's fingers clenched on the edge of the desk. "Meaning?"
"She's using me for something outside of the artifact translations." Kinsey had suspected it for quite some time now.
"And you're still there." Gerri sat back suddenly, looking away with her irritation written all over her tall, broad-shouldered body. "Idiot."
Kinsey laughed softly. "Yup," she said.
The two met gazes while the blonde forced the reticence inside her to still and go quiet.
"I'll quit," Kinsey said, surprised at how much those two words hurt to speak. "But you can't turn your back on this ever again, Gerri. We need to deal with situations and issues without you pretending nothing weird is going on."
The detective grunted, shoulders shifting inside her jacket as her pocket buzzed. She fished out her smartphone, checked the screen, frowned. Looked up as she stood, tucking it into the inside pocket again.
"Deal," she said. "Go kick Simone to the curb. And come back to work."
