Chapter 72

"If Miss Kim Yu-Rin joins our Society, then, well - Ithe case with a far more open mind"

Inside the newly constructed office of the Chairman of The Monster, located in their central headquarters

Sae-Jin was having a business-relatedwith Kim Yu-Rin

"That is… I’d also love to join you But I a as the duration you have put forward I believe that it will be better to not cause an inconvenience by breaking the rule of ’10 years or longer’ That is why I ask of your gracious understanding on this arding two business matters this day

One was to find out the current state of things regarding the Athany doll version 20, which, under the pretext of checking out the technical capabilities of the potential buyers, still hadn’t found a home yet The other was to purchase a certain artifact now available in the Society’s new Artifact store

The artifact in question was an obsidian bracelet called [Wolf’s Claws]

In addition to enhancing the overall power of its wearer, this mysterious artifact had an on/off hidden function that, when activated, would transforauntlet that covered the entire hand

As its naested, it was truly an iteh this artifact had a see of over 17 ht think since an artifact designed for co’ syste the wearer’s strength and endurance by nearly 30, as well as the warranty period of 30 years added on top, it was not an exaggeration to say the price was on the low side if one considered the guaranteed profit made with it - not tothis bracelet as well

"In that case, I guess it can’t be helped, but… But please, do consider it some more Our doors will always remain open for you"

He licked his lips at this missed opportunity

Sae-Jin had this one more plan he wanted to carry out And that plan was to buy a bit won Province to expand the boundaries of his Society and then, forhts Order of his ohich would fall under the jurisdiction of the Society

Of course, this idea didn’t co departh the initial costs involved with the recruit the relevant government entities would run into hundreds of millions of dollars, not to et alone, Sae-Jin still wanted to pursue this idea to the fullest

"Uh over?"

"Yes"

When Kim Yu-Rin cautiously inquired, Sae-Jin indifferently replied back

"…"

Her irides began to tre the Athany doll version 20 was "I’ll think about it" Not only she couldn’t get a definite confir between them But still, that didn’t mean she could just join his Society now

"Perhaps it’s ti precisely for this moment Even if Ki the Order Master of his Knights Order was slimmer than sliht he’d want to have working for hi else to say!!" (Kim Yu-Rin)

Kim Yu-Rin hurriedly shouted out when she saw Sae-Jin stand up froly show her way out

He sat back down on his seat for the ti

"What would you like to discuss?"

"I’ve heard that The Monster has recently started an entertainment coo, at the behest of the planning depart a new revenue eested for this business venture, as the currentand Yi Hye-Rin, were already huge attention drawers themselves On top of that, he could use the equiphts join the company, too

And only after afro the two that were practically top stars to begin with - Yu Sae-Jung and Yi Hye-Rin; it was now at the point where the fa attracted by the halo of The Monster, were inquiring about signing a contract with Sae-Jin’s con up with your company"

"…Oh Is that so?"

Yu-Rin made this decision with quite a difficulty, yet Sae-Jin’s reaction was lukewarm at best At that monificant all of a sudden

"By the way, You should inquire with the related department's head, instead of me, you know" (Kim Sae-Jin)

"…Eh? No, that’s not… Well, I… uh, my appearance fee is 27000 US, per episode…"

"Ah, really? Miss Sae-Jung’s is around 23000, actually It’s pretty close"

With a sneaky sht? Only a 4000 difference… Ah… However, I have not donework, that is why So, if you allow ive you ap between …"

And so, she bit the bait rather beautifully

The beginning of Dece to fall

As soon as The Monster’s Society ranking rose up from B- to B when the success of its various business ventures were publicly acknowledged, suddenly frorowth in check ca the issuing of business per fines that ran up tothe environ false ru by the current circue corporations and Trilogy have joined hands together, but… we can not be 100 certain" (Jo Hahn-Sung)

And so, Sae-Jin ended up creating a dedicated response team Somehow, he had developed a personality where he could not stand back and accept defeats

"…Really? I understand For now, let us wait until we can find ry was akin to ad that he had lost, Sae-Jin maintained as much level-headedness as huy is involved?"

"Yes, sir There is evidence of one of that Society’s directors lobbying the related parties"

It was y didn’t care for one bit about their stronghold on the top spot of South Korea’s Society rankings being threatened by anyone

It was almost understandable as the ht was already coy and The Monster side by side so there was that, but still, what that Society had done was quite a dirty and cheap trick

"Oh, and Mister Chairistration as well?"

"Yes, of course"

A ‘Guild’ A law proposed half a year ago had went into effect just last week, finally establishing the concept of Guilds officially in the Republic of Korea

In the layman’s terms, a Guild was the evolved foriven the chance to advance to a Guild, and after going through threeit can beconised as one

The First World countries in Western Europe, the United States as well as many other nations had already adopted this syste it now due to several overlapping reasons

In actual truth, The Monster’s contribution in getting this law enacted belatedly in Korea was great

The backstory surrounding this laas like this:

The Dawn dynasty, which did not enjoy an ay for soainst the Guild syste, yet with the implementation of this systethen further

It was then, a new Society co-founded by Yu Sae-Jung called The Monster entered into the fray like a new star, which meant that it would be friendly towards the Dawn’s interests And so, the Dawn decided to divert the enor funds to support the development of The Monster that would becoy

The disappearance of the Dawn’s lobbying effortswith little trouble

Obviously, there was no guarantee that The Monster would be able to become a Guild just because the law ca directors of the corporations unfriendly towards the Daere y as well, so it was likely that they would resort to even nastier and dirtier schemes from now on
