“Wait? What do you an by ‘they brought a massive business to our small boutique?’ You do know that I am the only one who can create these cha cards.” I asked Susan. These people had nowhere to go if they wanted to create an army equipped with rune cha cards they had to co to .
Yes, Lorenzo and Luna could try to decipher and reverse engineer the cards I created for them. But that would take years of the work and not to ntion even if they are successful. They cannot possibly pump out as many Rune Item Cards as I can. Thanks to my Calamity daughter core, I could create rune Item cards as I pleased, but it is not the sa for the other card apprentices. They require a lot of ti and resources to develop an Ego Gem shell.
This is why I acted arrogantly. If they wanted to develop enough rune cha cards for an army in the shortest possible ti, then they had to co to . They had no choice.
“…” Susan stared at
with dead eyes. As if saying, dude feel the room; you see what I am trying to do here, right?
“What? You are my manager. You do not have to stand in a ceremony here. I don’t think Dr.Luna would mind.” I glanced at Luna and then Anna and Lorenzo.
“…” Lorenzo wanted to curse out loud. But feeling the intimidating presence of Anna next to him, he chose to swear in his mind, ‘Who the fock does he think he is?’
“Susan, all of Wyatt’s friends are my friends. So you do not need to get nervous and walk on eggshells around us.” Anna acted like a wife who t her husband’s friends for the first ti. It did raise alarms in , but as long as Susan feels welcod, that is okay.
“Ms. Susan, Wyatt is correct. You do not have to watch your words in front of us. I insist that you keep the compensation and not rebate it.” Luna asked Susan not to stand on ceremony in her presence and speak her mind.
“Emperor Luna, please accept the rebate. As I said, It represents the foundation of the new relationship between us.” Susan insisted that Luna accept the rebate. She thought that mutually benefiting from each other would create a long-lasting business-to-custor relationship. Unlike , she believed in building a business on trust.
Whereas I wanted to build the card boutique on my capability as a card creationist. Rather than relationship and trust. Because I have seen the businesses built on trust and relationships end up betrayed. Sotis relationships and trust can help the business climb the economic ladder faster, but they have to have the Capabilities that match their pace; otherwise, soon, they will fall quicker than they climbed.
I believe in my card creation ability. So much so that I could arrogantly discard relationships and trust. Thanks to my ability, there was no need for
to be polite to Anna or Luna because I knew they needed . Was I not worried that I would offend them? No, as that was not in my control. Because if they wanted to be offended by
no matter what I do, how much I kiss their butthole, their opinion about
would not change. So why worry about sothing I cannot control. Instead, I chose to focus on my capabilities as a card creationist. Because as long as I am at the top, nobody would dare to ss with
knowingly.
That is how I planned to grow my business, and that is how I plan to climb to the top. If not for my capability, I would not be targeted by many people from the shadows, and Anna would not bother to protect . All that I have now is because of my capabilities and ability. As long as I had them, I did not have to worry about relationships and trust betraying . That is what I was trying to point out to Susan.
But she was more stubborn than
and would rather quit than do things other than her way. She insisted on working based on relationships and trust. Hence we decided to compromise. I would handle the Capability part, while Susan would manage the relationship part. After all, two heads are better than one. But this did not an I would stop trying to persuade Susan to co to the dark side.
“Really? Thank you.” Luna jumped in joy hearing Susan insist that Luna should take the rebate. With the rebate money, Luna could order extra Rune cha Cards.
Her Granduncle did promise her a private Army, but there is a limit to how many resources can be allotted for a private army that couldn’t be used in the front lines. Luna was worried that, with the high cost of each rune cha card, her army would be a small one. Therefore she was happy even if she could save a little on the rebate.
“…” Seeing such a reaction from solemn Luna, I was caught off guard. It seems I have underestimated the marketing gimmicks like rebates and discounts.
“…” Susan nodded in satisfaction seeing Luna’s joyous expression. It seems her seven years of experience as a sales representative were not just for show.
“…” Anna shook her head in dissatisfaction as the conversation was heading nowhere near where she wanted it to be focused on, the mirconium ore and gaMorpher. Crossing the river took more priority than the creation of Luna’s private army. Therefore she cleared her throat, hoping Luna would co to her senses, *Ahem*.
“I am getting right to it,” feeling Anna’s stare and symbolic throat clearing. Luna decided to stop with her part and get to the part where she discusses with Wyatt about them using the gaMorpher to cross the river.
“Wyatt, about the gaMorpher. Is it possible to make it taller? If yes, How tall can it get?”
