Brian left so fast that he almost seemed like he was running away, and Junhyuk looked at Sungtae.
"I see that we"ll be using a swiss bank account, do I have sole access?"
""Max" has access."
"The company needs $350 million?"
"To begin with," Sungtae said, and Junhyuk smiled bitterly and got up from his seat.
"Let"s go. It won"t be good idea if others see you. I"ll take you home."
"Could I accompany you to buy the building?"
"What are you going to do?"
"The company is making a big purchase, so I"m curious."
Junhyuk smiled and replied, "Don"t be nonsensical. Go home and stay there."
"I understand."
Sungtae was a good social climber. Junhyuk did not speak further. He took Sungtae home and went to sign the purchase. It was a contract, but Junhyuk couldn"t pay the down payment right away. The money hadn"t been transferred to the Swiss bank yet.
He told the owner of the building that he would wire the money the following Monday, and they finalized the terms of the contract, and he left. He picked up his burner phone to hear Sarang"s bright voice.
"What is the matter? You are calling me first?"
"Where are you?"
"I"m training."
"Can you put on your mask and come out?"
"Sure. Where should I go?"
"Let"s get something delicious. Can you come to Guro station?"
"Yes!"
He found a coffee shot near Guro station, ordered himself a cup of coffee and stared out of the window. Before he finished his coffee, Sarang, wearing her mask, showed up.
She looked condescending and walked fast. She was probably glad to see him. He chuckled as he watched her. Then, he offered her a seat and said, "I wanted to give you something. That"s why I called you."
"What is it?"
He pulled out the Spatial Bag Gongon gave him and handed it to her. The Spatial Bag was normally invisible to others, but as Junhyuk handed it to her, she figured out what it was.
"This is… !"
"A Spatial Bag," he said and continued calmly, "Place it somewhere you find comfortable. Other people can"t see it."
"OK." She smiled and added, "This is really nice!"
"Each of its sides measures five meters."
"Thanks!"
He shrugged.
"I got it for free."
"For free?!"
"Yes," and he told her about Gongon.
She listened to everything, and her eyes sparkled. She touched her cheeks and tapped her feet on the floor.
"I want to see him! What does Gongon looks like?"
"Why?"
"I think he is cute!"
Junhyuk shook his head.
"Well…"
"Show me! You can see his face!"
"I can"t show it to others."
"Really!?"
Then, he told her about his company, "I am setting up a sh.e.l.l company to buy a building and a supercomputer."
"Are you serious!?"
"Yes. I"ll have it on Monday."
"How much is the building?"
"Do you want to see it?"
"Show it to me."
The building was near Guro station, so Junhyuk took her there and showed her the building. She stared at it, astonished.
"This is really yours?"
"That"s right."
"Big brother, can we have dinner on the roof?"
"On the roof?"
Sarang nodded pa.s.sionately, and he laughed and replied, "We can only get fast food."
"I don"t care."
They got hamburgers and walked behind the building. Then, Junhyuk teleported them to the top of the building. She was at the very top of a ten-story building and happily sat on the ledge.
"That"s dangerous."
"If I fall, you"ll use the force field or teleport to save me, so…"
"You are brave."
He sat next to her and handed her a hamburger. She swished her feet and ate her meal.
"This is your HQ?"
"Right."
"I"ll get some mana stones next time."
"Sure. I"ll do the same. I"m spending my money too quickly here in Korea. I need more."
She drank her c.o.ke and laughed.
"I thought it would be enough if I could eat and live, but it seems I need more."
"Just because you can eat and live doesn"t mean the world is a safe place."
She remained silent, taking a big bite out of her hamburger. Junhyuk was sitting next to her, eating his own hamburger, and he also swished his feet lightly.
Those were simple burgers, but they were eating somewhere different, so it all tasted delicious. Junhyuk chewed on his bit and mumbled, "Should I take some to Gongon?"
Gongon was weak against food, so it would be a good idea to keep him well fed.

On Monday, he reported to work at Ilsan and prepared to greet the new employees. His job was to transfer his workload to them, but when he got there, he saw a desk he hadn"t seen before.
"Is there someone else?"
That couldn"t be the case. We"ve filled the five slots, so why would there be another desk?
He was going to see Eunseo and opened the door, and one of the new employees was already out there.
"You came early?"
"It"s my first day!"
Soyeon looked nervous, and he offered her a seat. He would ask Eunseo about the new desk later. Soyeon had arrived first, but the other employees showed up too. They sat on their desks, and atop each of them there was a worker"s manual.
He looked at them.
"Read over your manuals and ask me if you have any questions."
Junhyuk planned to spend his morning on the work transfer. Then, they heard the clicking of high heels outside.
He turned around, the door opened and a familiar woman walked in. He looked at her and wondered who she was. She had 150 health and 300 mana.
"Nice to meet you. I"ve been a.s.signed to the Administrative Department today. I"m Tsubasa."
"Nice to meet you. I"m Junhyuk Lee."
She was the woman with the ignition power that had been found in j.a.pan. It was the first time he heard her name, but he was aware of her power. He realized the new desk was meant for her and offered her a seat. Tsubasa sat down, and Junhyuk walked over to her.
"Did they tell you about your work?"
"No. They told me I would find out about it here."
He thought for a moment before saying, "You"ll do the same job as Soyeon. She"ll be moving the monsters" bodies into storage, and it"s a lot of work."
"Sure."
He thought Tsubasa was fluent in Korean and realized something else. She too had taken the language pill, so she fit right in at the Administrative Department.
She would be working with Soyeon, and he made that decision to make use of her power. At least, if anything happened, Soyeon would be safe with her.
Junhyuk a.s.signed them some work and went to look for Eunseo. Outside of the CEO"s office, he saw Dohee, who guided him inside. Junhyuk was offered a seat, and once he sat down, he asked Eunseo, "Today, someone showed up who we did not select. Could you tell me about that?"
"My brother suggested her. I checked it already, and she"s fluent in many languages," she answered.
Doyeol had suggested her, and of course he did. Jeffrey had captured her.
He looked at Eunseo and realized something else. With Tsubasa"s attack power, she had the ability to protect Eunseo. HQ had been attack by monsters lately, and Tsubasa could be Eunseo"s last line of defense.
She looked at him.
"How long will it take to train them for all of the work?"
"Two weeks should be enough."
"Do you mean you will quit in two weeks?"
Junhyuk nodded, and Eunseo hid her face.
"We will have a congratulatory party for the new employees. It will also be a good bye party for you."
"You don"t have to do that."
"I want to. Don"t refuse."
He nodded and said, "OK, but I have a favor to ask."
"What is it?"
"Could I go out for a while?"
"You may. Will it take long?"
"No. I"ll be back soon enough."
"If you are late, you may go home from there."
Junhyuk smiled at her.
"Thanks for looking after me."
He went out, and Eunseo watched him leave. She sighed and leaned back on her wheelchair, looking at the ceiling and shaking her head as he went out. Dohee entered, and Eunseo said, "Let"s go to the Development Department."
"I"ll take you."
Eunseo headed to the Development Department where Elise was located. Zaira couldn"t function completely in that building, but Elise could still make use of her. She was there, working.
Eunseo looked at the things piled in front of her. There was a large orb with electrodes attached to it. Elise had been inspecting it, but she turned to face Eunseo.
"You came?"
Eunseo approached her and asked, "How is it going?"
"It"s going well. If everything goes right, it will be ready in three days."
"Three days?"
Elise nodded, and Eunseo looked at the things piled up before her. She fixed her gla.s.ses and murmured lightly, "I"m looking forward to it."

Junhyuk headed to a bank. It was still before noon, and he entered and headed to the VIP room. He walked briskly and a worker approached him. Junhyuk took a seat, and the worker brought out a cup of tea.
"You look familiar."
He had worked as a model, and his face was well known, but Junhyuk just said, "I want to see the department manager."
"Please, wait a minute."
The worked shook his head and left. Meanwhile, Junhyuk sipped on his tea and waited. A bald, middle-aged man walked in.The man saw him, smiled and handed him a business card.
"Nice to meet you. You were looking for me?"
Junhyuk looked at the worker who started entering the room, and the manager chuckled and waved him off. The worker left, and the two of them remained.
"How can I help you?"
Junhyuk smiled, "My face is well known, so I have a favor to ask you."
"Sure. How can I help you?"
Junhyuk pushed his bank book forward. The manager looked at it and looked at him, and Junhyuk said nonchalantly.
"The transfer has to be made anonymously. No one can know."
"That"s possible. I"ll do it myself."
Junhyuk handed him the bank account number, and the manager looked at it.
"That"s a Swiss account."
Junhyuk smiled.
"The transfer is rather large. Is it possible?"
"It is. How much do you want to transfer?"
He smiled again.
"$350 million."
"What?!"
