235 A Businessman (2/2)

When you're ahead of everyone, they'll never be able to catch up as long as you have these three vital power.

Currently, I am behind dozens of people. The army had been doing large scale surveyed recently. I wanted to get those papers, so I could learn who is useful and who is not but that doesn't seem feasible since I have no money to bribe people from above.

I have no power.

I was rising towards that elite one percent but everything was destroyed because of this sh*t! Ah, how I wish time would turn back to the old days. Now, I'm stuck with this bunch and I even have to clean up their mess.

”You're telling me to give you a day, is that right Mister Blake?” Jun said.

”Y-yes, we can get you the information as early as tomorrow. I already sent out my men to ask around where the resort is. You just have to relax and stay in our most prominent room—it's actually my room, but you could use it however you like.” Blake hastily replied while stuttering. He massaged the cheek that got smacked earlier and continued to assure Jun of his men's efficiency.

He was smacked earlier?! Yes, that's true. Jun got pissed of his condescending attitude and taught him a lesson on who's boss.

The Newsroom was a small-sized gang with twenty members. They work with information via blackmailing and extortion. Blake was the one who came up with the idea since he was already used to do this.

Jun also learned that the Newsroom was allied with another gang that mainly deals with prostitution. The information that they use to blackmail and extort people were from those unfortunate ones who happen to buy services from their partners.

Jun glanced at the dirty room and shook his head. ”Just get the job done and let's talk tomorrow.” He stood up and walked away.

Blake became puzzled when Jun left something on the table. A stack of neatly piled cash. 'Is he showing off?!'

After getting out, Jun noticed that the fierce goons from earlier were now like scared kittens who had their tails stepped on—they couldn't even look at him! He looked around for a place to rest for the night when he saw a familiar name on one of the houses.

Moments later, Mhiya got thrown out of the front door followed by a loud sound when the door got shut closed. Jun chose this house since he knew that women were more hygienic than men. If he was going to wait for news, he at least wanted to wait in a nice environment!

Jun didn't take much time to choose a random room before closing his eyes. He chose the nearest one and locked the door. He entered meditation faster than usual and arrived at the dark place which contains the mysterious orb and two floating runes.

The one thing he likes when meditating is that time passes quickly but he's still able to sense his surroundings due to his Aura(Death) training.

Since he had nothing to do, he went back to comprehending what he was seeing and began pondering what they could be.

The orb usually stays in the middles—acting as the center—while the runes circled around it. A yellow rune with an hourglass image inside of it and a white rune with a portal image on it.

At first, Jun only saw them from the perspective of the orb. However, after learning and actually controlling Aura(Death) to sense his surroundings, he was able to observe the orb's surrounding area.

The thing that surprised him ever since that day was the small black orb laying on top of the white orb.

Jun had been pondering for a long time. He knew that the runes were the unique skills that he had. So, that should mean the orb should be him, right? That's the only answer he could think of!

With that as the base, he could also assume that the white orb was his soul since it grows bigger in size as his power stat increases. Though he doesn't believe much in such weird things, the proof was already laid upon his eyes.

Then, is the black orb his inner demon, or something like his conscience? If that's the case, why is it so small!?

As he continued exploring the mystery of the orbs, he suddenly 'saw' the door open. He exited his meditation and opened his eyes.

Two beautiful ladies with naked bodies entered the room.
