Chapter 31 - Virtue Financial

"GODDAMN!!…You attack a bandits base?!!..Damn dude, that's awesome!…well, given at that era such things was kinda normal…Still, in my opinion I think not all the monster looking race were actually monster, just like the goblins you saved….in D&D and WOW they were quite a civilized race...and the civilizations they had comparable to even human kind….". (Ken)

"That's exactly what I thought so, unlike the other goblins the 2 were much more civilized…I wonder actually happened to them…".

"anyway, you should take in anyone who had similar conditions as them from now on…you know, preserving rare species kinda thing...". (Ken)

Once again I left for earth, and as usual I met with my trusty confider Ken, his confidence and knowledge in fantasy things were always helpful for me. I came back this time not only for that but to buy supplies and to look about Ken progress on building my company.

"anyway, how about the things that i asked?…".

"Oh, here you go…..everything went as planned, I also have bought 60% shares for this 2 company….Rootstock Medical Institute and Rodriguez Constructions Company…both of them were in Panama…we were literally they're life saver…".

Ken opened his tablet and hand me the document for my company. The name of my company was ' VIRTUE Financial ' an investment company that were based and registered in Panama (For Tax purposes and confidentiality). My company only have 5 employee for now, it's Me, Ken and his Wife Catherine who's adept in business works but stuck to be only a manager in bank due to discrimination of her nationality and gender (The usual stuff), Marcuez Vega my old friend in south America cartel but already retired for 20 years who's proficient in business related stuff (if you want shells company/ tax evasions he's the man), My last employee was Helena Mendoza, Hacker and Accountant, who I saved from cartel slavery a few years ago, Ken said she was working in a pawn shop when he recruited her. Catherine is VIRTUE Financial CEO, he gave her that positions, because she was more than capable and unlike Ken, she's very serious about her works and kinda scary at times, I agree with him and let her handle the front side of the business.

Both of the company VIRTUE took over was on the verge of closing down, Rootstock medical institute was a private owned hospital, that was ruined by ridiculous nepotism and medical lawsuits, which were settled after we bought it over (Thanks to Catherine and Helena ). Rodriguez Constructions Company on the other hand was an example of a victims of his owner fault Rodriguez Jr, who's a gambling addict and sold his company to pay for his debt, luckily he met with Marcuez who took over his business and bought over the whole company. Both of this company was a mid sized company.

"Everything is just like I wanted right?…".

"Yeah…no lay off…all the troublesome share holders has been removed, the business resume as usual, the company is all yours…oh, by the way Cathy want her office…". (Ken)

"Okay, let her settle that on her own.. just rent an office space for now..and made it VIRTUE Financial HQ..she deserve it anyway…..By the way I'm heading for Korea tomorrow..wanna come along?..".

"Sure….hey, did you see your gram recently?…damn, you already at 5Millions follower…I even saw some modelling offer for you…my advice thou, take it…". (Ken)

"Maybe later…but, do you think I should post the pictures of me in Fantasma?… I took a lot of them there…Look..".

i show him my collections of pictures i took in Fantasma.

"Owh~~ nice pic…you should thou, just don't post the girls pic or the weird monsters pic…it would cause a massive stir then…". (Ken)

After spending 1 hours of discussing about my company, we stayed in the cafe for another 3 hours editing and posting my new photos on my social media account. Later that day, I ready and packed up for my flight tomorrow to Seoul Korea. Nothing really happend much in our way to Korea, seriously Business class flight is awesome.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"KKYYAAAAAA!!!!!…..….…KKKYYAA."

Rows of girl of all ages were kept behind the human barricade, journalist snapping pictures and taking a videos of me and Ken as we exit the arrival terminal.

"So much for quite and peaceful arrival….". (Ken)

"Well, tell me about it…I never knew I would be this popular though…anyway what the hell with the plank card??…".

Before the flight, Ken suggested that I should make a post about me going to Seoul, and made a Gram videos then post it online. The result was, we were mob by a swarm of fans(?) at the airport, media, journalist and hundreds of girl fans filled the arrival terminal and taking a pictures of us. Luckily thanks to the K-Pop culture, the airport was fast to handle such situations, the security was able to round up everyone and keep them at bay, the only thing was every authority was wondering who we are exactly. Both of us were confused on what to do, so we could only stand like an idiot looking for a way to leave the airport.

"Mr, we need to get moving right now…Is your transport ready at the gate?..". (Security)

An Airport Security come to us and ask us courteously for us to move. As we have been standing like a tree without even waving or posing like a celebrity.

".…..Ken let's go just grab a cab outside then..".

"Sure…Sai, smile..waves your hand at them…". (Ken)

"For what??..I'm not an artist or celebrity….".

"MR. MIES....is it true you would be taking a model work here in Seoul??..".(Journalist)

As we were moving towards the gate, a journalist sneak past the security and shove a mic in front of my face and ask me a question.

"Huh?..I never think about it, beside I'm here to visit a friend…by the way, don't shove that thing at..MMMMMM!!…".

Before I even finished, Ken cover my mouth and started to drag me towards the entrance.

"We're sorry we won't take another questions..please excuse us…". (Ken)

The airport security who seems to noticed that we have absolutely no car waiting for us, Immediately hail the nearby cab for us. As we enter the cab, it instantly starts moving and leaving the airport, Ken then told the driver to head towards our book hotel at Incheon harbor.

"Yo Dude..remember when I said that you should act like a celebrity now?….why in the hell would you want to move on that journalist??…". (Ken)

"Look, I know that…but, I'm no star man, even if I got some fame on me..I don't like to be swarm like that and act like I'm nice and jolly….I'm no saint, nor fake…so fuck that…".

I can't denied I does feel good to be known, but seeing the frantic situations back then, it made me frown. I don't like faking myself for the comfort of others, and I not gonna start now or ever.

"Woah~ Woah~ dude, calm down…..okay, you know what…just do as you like, but promise me..don't go snapping their neck or something…". (Ken)

Ken were fairly alarmed when he saw me kinda pissed, he knew he was part of the reason that this happen, that's why he took a step back and defuse the situations. After about 40 minutes of commute, we finally arrived at our hotel, it's just a small hotel near the harbor. Having a normal hotel with a lovely views of seaside was a nice change of pace for me, after almost a year living in a hill side keep in the middle of the woods.

"Be right out..".

After showered, Ken rang my door asking me to go out with him for a dinner. Wearing a white button shirt, black jeans and burgundy long coat, I leave the room and meet with ken, the leave the hotel for a eel charcoal barbecued restaurant near the beach.

"This place is quite good…..the eel was quite fresh too..".

i could see the eel texture as Ken is cutting the eel to a small pieces, and carefully laying them on the barbecue grill in the middle of the table.

"It is right~..I found this restaurant on the web…my korean friends even recommend them….anyway's since when you can speak korean??…".

I have been speaking Korean to communicate with local ever since we got here. I simply told him that, thanks to my boosted status I now can easily learn other languages, right now I already mastered Chinese, Korean (Both north and south), German, Spanish Japanese, Russian, Hebrew, Arabic even Thai. When you had a lot of time in the other world it's easy to do it.

"Quite a place to pick…Mr. Mies…". (Lee Han Na)

Out of nowhere, Lee Han Na who dress beautifully like an heirs of a large conglomerate stood beside our table and bow slightly to me.

"It's Nice meeting you Ms. Lee Han Na, Please have a seat...Thank you..".

Waving her hand, the bodyguards she had around her immediately leave the restaurant. She sit downs on my right side, and pour soju in my empty glass, for some reason she appears more careful than before and even elegant.

"It's my honor Mr.Mies…I have heard the full story of your exploit relating to my family, from my grandfather…I apologize for my brash attitude when we first met..". (Lee Han Na)

Looks like someone just got schooled, still seeing her act serious and businessy like this feels more appropriate. Befitting Lee family reputations, I like this kind of attitude from a business partner.

"It's okay….anyway, small matter aside…is what I asked ready?..".

"It is..we can head over the the place as soon as you ready…". (Lee Han Na)

With a bewitching confident smiles, Lee Han Na look at me with a cup in her hand.
