“Thank you for coming everyone. I know this is abrupt, but I have a sufficient reason to request another meeting.” Kim Hajin stands up from his seat, and bows to everyone apologetically. “The stealing of the tower is a success, but we will not be able to use it as early as expected. I am lacking in SP.” He adds.
“How can we help?” Suho asks, eager to be of service.
“…” Nayun chooses to remain quiet, maybe thinking of a way to help amidst her silence.
“Currently, Hajin has his SP rising on triple digits since stealing the Little Blue Tower, it will generate a lot of SP for a long time. But we need something immediate, meaning we need to find another income stream from the Goblin of Greed’s stunts.” I explain to them the current situation.
According to Hajin, a safe estimate for customizing the Tower as he likes using [Setting Intervention] ranges between a thousand SP to tens of thousands of SP. There is really no accurate measurement as the consumption of SP is simply by feeling. There are optimization options, but it is better if Hajin has more SP instead of getting a compromise from the optimization process. I really cannot imagine that hundreds of SP will be enough to shape the Tower as we like.
Unlike Suho and Nayun, I have also a feel for how SPs are used considering that I once read them in a novel.
Nayun breaks her quiet as she makes a suggestion. “Is it really necessary that it has to be the Goblin's identity to make a high-profile move to earn us more SP? Hajin can do just the same… do some stuff…”
I playfully pipe in. “That could work. Let’s do a scandal video! Chaebol Chae Nayun dating rising Genius Kim Hajin!” That earns me a smacking. Nayun sends a fist at the back of my head.
“Behave…” She chillingly warns me.
“I don’t mind…” Hajin adds, but Nayun ignores him.
Suho fakes a cough and inserts himself into the conversation. “Why don’t we do both? Hajin can start a new business with DDT as his core technology. Meanwhile, the Goblin can do more crimes of justice while Hyon here works on the business details like uplifting the Hajin Page into a more respectable company.”
Since when does Suho become so adept at business? “That can work,” I comment. Mostly these days, Hosup is the one taking care of the Hajin Page with the help of Cube of course. I should spend some time talking to Hosup, and have Yoenha do the paperwork.
DDT stands for Djinn Detection Technology, which many companies use as a basis to create more products. Hajin receives passive income from the patent, and the money we earn from this, we reinvest either on stocks or the Hajin Page itself.
Since Hajin’s popularity lately, the customers we get from the Hajin Page have also increased. “Thanks Suho and Nayun! We will immediately inform you if the Tower is already in operation!” I grab Hajin’s shoulder, dragging him out of the meeting area. “Let’s go, Hajin, we have a lot to do!”
I almost forget it, but the first massive source SP Hajin gets is from our Video Featurette. We can capitalize on his current popularity to make more explosive moves that will have that WOW factor.
“Where are we going?” Hajin asks, fixing himself upright to walk properly. I let go of his shoulders.
Truthfully, I don’t want to disturb Nayun and Suho on their own projects, but we cannot even use the Tower with the SP we have. I really have no expectations, but Nayun and Suho do make valid suggestions that we can work around.
Hajin is the kind of hands-on guy. He might be good with stocks, but not at the behind-the-scenes work like paperwork, business ventures, and the more annoying work.
“Hajin, the fate of the Tower lies in your hands… You will have to work overtime, so can you do it?” I ask him with my best Jojo face, expressing to him how serious I am.
“Can I not?” Hajin fearfully replies.
“Nope. I just asked you out of formality. This is what is going to happen. You are going to video a Review of the Goblin’s equipment. Of course, Cube AI will help you all along the way. After videoing the Review, you will then build a motorbike with slightly inferior tech to the Goblinbike. The story will be after rigorous analysis of the Goblin’s technology, you have invented a new bike that is more efficient than any other kind of technology!”
“Are you crazy? Won’t they suspect me as the Goblin?” Hajin seems reluctant of the idea, but I am confident that I can sell it well. “It might sound a stretch, but I think people might suspect.
“Yes, I am crazy. But I am not an idiot. I will put contingencies in place. It will work, trust me. As the Goblin, you didn’t really show your fighting style, right? You told me that you are going to recreate Black Lotus’s style from Nayun’s memories. You already have a Bow Blueprint that you took from Cube’s database. We only need time to pry Evandel’s Aether for you to use.”
“I said I don’t mind not having Aether… I am plenty strong enough as it is. I see your relationship with Evandel going well too. I don’t mind you having Aether instead of me… But I am on board with your plan. I should be able to make a Review video on the Goblin’s viral debut.” Hajin gives me the green light I need. To be honest, though, I still feel it will be nice for Hajin to get Aether.
In my mind, Hajin is at his strongest when he is at the height of his Black Lotus career. Without him using Aether, I feel bad for some reason, but considering the current Hajin’s strength, I imagine him getting stronger in another branch of power instead of the Black Lotus path.
“Okay, I will leave this all to you.”
I head to Yoenha’s room AKA her confinement area.
I pass through several doors and turn until I reach the only warp gate in the whole of [Under Cube]. The warp technology is among the highest level tech of [Under Cube] and I must reach at least 70% synchronization rate for my system to get access to the whole warp blueprint.
“Hello, Evandel!” I cry to the little girl. It has only been two days since I last visited her.
***
“Dada!” Evandel runs to Hyon with spring on her steps at the pace of a normal little girl’s stubby legs. She is now healthier than when initially she arrived, thanks to Yoenha’s strict teachings.
Moreover, Evandel is now with clothes proper to her age. Her cheeks have also become rounder, and her skin has become more vibrant. She is the picture of good health.
Yoo Yoenha in the past couple of days decided to get stricter with Evandel as she reads once on the internet how junk foods are detrimental to the growth of children. She now understands why her mother is very strict with her. Because of restricting Evandel from junk foods, the little girl starts to give Yoenha the cold shoulder.
The appearance of Hyon must appear like her savior has arrived. The sight of the two rascals amuses Yoenha to no end.
“Evandel!” Hyon cries as he kneels on the ground. “I missed you!”
Hyon receives Evandel in his embrace, and then he twirls the little girl around him playfully. It is as if they have not met for a very long time, making this reunion feel very dramatic. But Yoenha knows better.
Yoenha picks up Evandel under her armpit and removes her from Hyon. “I hate to break to you, but she hasn’t done her assignments yet.” She adds.
“What?” Hyon is befuddled.
Yoenha explains. “I took it upon myself to educate Evandel. She is learning well. Math is not her strong point though… her future is bleak.” She dully answers, displaying a strategic look of disappointment.”
***
I am speechless. Yoenha really surprises from the most unexpected places. To think that she is educating Evandel. I feel bad for the little girl. If we have the resources, I might be negotiating with a mage already to take Evandel as a student.
“What else?” I ask.
“I am teaching her magic power control too. I excelled in that area, even when I was young, so I am confident in my ability with regard to that area. I must say… Evandel is a genius.” A rare smile appears on Yoenha’s face.
“Also, she calls you dada? As in Daddy? Is she your daughter? That sounds… ridiculously impossible…” She adds, with a suspicious gaze.
I deliberate on where I tell the full story or the half. I guess I will settle with half. “She is adopted, but she has inherited my awesomeness nonetheless.”
My eyes land on Yoenha’s dress. It is the same clothes Hajin and Nayun have put in her wardrobe to change daily. “What the hell is that?” Yoenha’s clothes should be everyday indoor clothes which she can relax with. Thus, my suspicions at Yoenha's frilly clothes.
“How did your clothes become so gorgeous when you only have normal shirts and shorts?”
I look back at Evandel who has something missing in her ensemble. “Evandel, where is Aether?”
“Thank you for coming everyone. I know this is abrupt, but I have a sufficient reason to request another meeting.” Kim Hajin stands up from his seat, and bows to everyone apologetically. “The stealing of the tower is a success, but we will not be able to use it as early as expected.
