~~~~Outside the ga~~~~
Inside a eting room sowhere in China, five people anxiously waited inside. Their sight was fixated towards the table and didn't dare gaze to each other. Unfortunately, in the next second, the atmosphere in the room becos tenser as the door opened and a man entered the room.
They stood, reactively, as they bowed towards the man out of respect. The man was on his fifties, with several scars on his right cheek. It was paired with his white hair and brown eyes; that surveyed around the room. Then, he straightened his suit and sat to a chair located at the far end of the table.
"Everyone! Have a seat." He said.
They bowed towards him once more before they sat to their chairs. At this mont, their hearts started to beat faster each second.
However, the man didn't waste another second and asked, "What's happening in the Asian Region?"
Like children that were being scolded, four of the five people stared towards a man who's wearing a simple company shirt and jeans. The identification card that hangs by that man's neck and rests by his chest had vibrated along with the hastened beat of his heart.
As the sweat in his face was about to drop, he took a gulp and said, "Chairman, I am sorry! The production of the VR Boxes in the Asian Region has been slow. Although the Armaz Energy Corporation is increasing its production rate of the Power Supply of the VR boxes beyond its current capabilities, the other Asian Energy Companies are using this issue to pressure them to share the rights of supplying that component to the Yang Developer."
The man bowed afterward while the Chairman rubbed his chin as if he was in deep thought. After a few seconds of silence, the Chairman said confidently, "Tell the suppliers to focus on the production of the power supply or the VR Boxes. We are not in a rush to sell out the ga."
"Yes, Chairman!" the man said as he bowed towards the chairman. But before he could return to his seat, the Chairman asked a follow-up question.
"Is this the reason why players from the Philippines are being harassed in the ga?"
The man froze for a few seconds as he tried to 'formulate' an answer that would not trigger or anger the Chairman.
"Y-Yes, Chairman! I think it is sohow related to that!" the man said, mustering up the last ounce of courage in him. Seeing the Chairman silent made the man anxious, hence, he said, "Sh-should we do sothing about it, Chairman?"
Consequently, the Chairman glanced towards the man with a frown; making the man force out a smile in response and thought, 'My career is now over!'
Contrary to what the man assud, the Chairman sighed and said, "There's no need for us to interfere. We are only responsible for overlooking the ga. Nothing more, nothing less."
"Yes, Chairman!" the man said, relieved. He sat back to his chair as the Chairman glanced towards the other people in the room.
"Moving forward. Could soone tell the details about this cheater issue?" the Chairman asked.
Unlike earlier, a woman stood and bowed towards the chairman in a calm manner. "Chairman, there were suspiscious players reported that had suddenly taken over the continental quest rankings in just a matter of several minutes. Upon observing it, personally, I think that they are cheaters and would like to request for your approval to ban the said players."
At that mont, the Chairman grasped his fist tightly and slamd it into the table, strong enough to make a dent in it. Everyone was astonished. Even the woman who spoke can't help but jump lightly and took a step back.
"So, you are saying that there are hacks in Bearth Online?" He shouted to the woman on top of his lungs.
The woman suddenly went pale and could only look down in silence.
"I-I'm sorr-" She tried to ask for an appology but the chairman was consud by his rage and interrupted her with a question.
"Tell ! Do you believe that there are hacks in Bearth Online?!"
"Y-Yes!" She said, stuttering.
"Does all of you have the sa thoughts with her?" He asked the other four, in a scary tone.
However, they all remained silent in response; not wanting to trigger the anger of the chairman any further.
Hence, the chairman stood and said, "Listen! All of you! There are no cheats nor hacks in Bearth Online! Not now! Never!" Then, He paused for a second and continued, "Rember this! The very concept of cheats or hacks are non-existent in that world! There's only pure power and glory!"
Out of rage, the chairman was about to leave the eting room. Before he left, he said, "That cheat issue is just an excuse made by the weak and failures! And I just learned that there were so amongst you!"
With a loud bang, the door was shut and the chairman had left.
The woman who reported about the cheater issue could only went into her knees and cry; seemingly knowing that her carreer is over. The other four people could only pat her back and say consoling words towards her.
Outside, the chairman returned to his office. Even his secretary didn't dare to speak much when she t him. It was as if she knew that her boss was angry or in a bad mood. Thus, the chairman was left alone in his office after he dismissed his secretary.
"Cheat, huh?" The chairman puffed out smoke as he glanced towards the continental quest rankings. Then, he continued, "If those incompitent Leads only knew the reality and harshness of the ga..."
