”About that Boss, Rami Kaga is a very busy man. And wonʼt meet with anyone unless itʼs of profit to him. Fine Gold has nothing of interest for him, so It will be tricky to get an appointment with him.” Diana wasnʼt sure whether it was within her ability to meet with the man who reigned over the Blossom district Medical card association.

”Sister, announce that you are going to make a huge donation to the medical card association. It will catch Ramiʼs attention and get you the meeting with him.” Jaya spoke from experience. Whenever she promised a huge donation, even the most arrogant of the bunch would bend over backward for her.

”Hahaha, boss, I really canʼt hold it. Please let me do it….” Cindy could not hold back her laughter hearing Jayaʼs words and begged me to lift the no-nonsense ban.

”*Sigh*... Well, go ahead. But have a little mercy on her, will you? After all, she is young and a little inexperienced.” Considering Cindyʼs attitude thus far, I let her do as she pleases because she proved she was worth my investment.

”Donʼt worry, boss, I think this is already insulting enough for her.” Said Cindy looking at Jaya, who was filled with fighting spirit, not understanding where she went wrong. Right now, she is the perfect example of ignorance is bliss. Cindy shook her and added, ” Jaya, dear. What you proposed works only on people who are poorer than you. Blossom medical card association makes Fine Goldʼs gross profit in a week or less. What makes you think that we can flex our money to them? Arenʼt you being stupid to think that would work?” In the end, Cindy didnʼt not forget to use the opportunity to mock Jaya.

”Cindy, what the hell did I ever do to you? Why must you mock me constantly?” Jaya complained to Cindy with tears in her eyes.

”Wait, are you crying?” Cindy asked exaggeratedly.

”No…” Jaya denied in embarrassment.

”Then what are those tears in the corner of your eyes? Tears of pleasure? ” Cindy asked rhetorically, seeing Jaya trying to cover the feelings she just let out.

”Yes, they are,” Jaya responded in a fit of rage.

”You pervert! I am scolding you for being dumb, but you are crying in pleasure. You sicko! When did this new habit of yours develop?” Got to give it to Cindy. She knew how to humiliate someone step by step.

”....” Jaya glared at Cindy with puffed cheeks and teary red eyes. She seemed to be trying really hard not to break into tears or look for her sister for help.

”...” Diana was disgruntled seeing Cindy break her beloved sister mentally by humiliating Jaya in front of the only person who she wanted to be acknowledged by other than Diana, Dalton Wyatt.

”Alright, thatʼs enough. Diana, there must be a way to get Rami Kagaʼs attention. Figure out what he likes? What is he after? Do what needs to be done. I want a meeting with him as fast as possible.” I ordered Diana.

”Yes, boss. Gaining Rami Kagaʼs attention is will be easy as long as we have rare medical cards.” Diana remembered that Rami Kaga likes to collect rare medical cards. An expensive hobby to have. After all, the medic cards were in a different league compared to the other cards. Medic cards can get thrice as expensive as the other cards of the same rank. Not to mention, medic cards are rarely seen in the open market.

”What are you getting at Diana? Speak ʼʼ I donʼt understand what it is with Diana and Cindy. Even though they have an idea, they leave hints for me to pick up and credit it as my idea. Do they really take me for a boss who is so incompetent that I will feel threatened by my overachieving staff?

”The red Elixir that Guild master Van used to heal my arm, If I had a bunch of those cards, I bet I could gain Rami Kagaʼs attention in exchange for them.” From Dianaʼs answer earlier, when she said Rami Kaga liked to collect rare medic cards, I knew she was hinting at the Blood Elixir used by Van. She was being too obvious. So I forced Diana to tell the whole part herself.

”Sure, thatʼs not a problem. The Blood elixirs were made by Guild master Van himself using his blood rule. He can make as many as he wants.” As I spoke, Van took out a bunch of blood elixir cards of various ranks and handed them to Diana. The strength of the elixir varied based on the rank of the monsterʼs blood used to make them.

”Blood rule? Congrats, guild master Van for forging your ego gem.” Diana hurriedly congratulated Van for forging his ego gem.

”Congrats, guild master Van!” Cindy and Jaya congratulated Van together.

”Donʼt make forging an ego gem a big deal,” I said, seeing the trio congratulate Van one after another.

”You would say that, after all, you are the youngest apprentice to forge an ego gem in Sky blossom city,” Jaya, the ignorant calf, commented. Did she forget I am her boss? Whatever this tone of speech is more comfortable than Diana and Cindyʼs formal tone.

”No, thatʼs not me. Thatʼs Corey Bright. She is the youngest card apprentice to forge an ego gem in sky blossom city.” I did not know Coreyʼs birthday, but she did forge her ego gem before me.

” what? Corey Bright? Are you sure?” Asked Jaya in surprise.

”How could you ask that, even after witnessing her use rule power in the tournament?” Asked Cindy.

”No, I know that Corey forged her ego gem. But I find it hard to believe that she forged it before our boss.” Replied Jaya.

”Indirect flattery, Jaya, you have come a long way.” Cindy couldnʼt help it. Jaya makes bullying easy.

”Well, Jaya has a weird origin card. Strange but a hell of stronger than any I have seen till now.”
