"Do you remember those amazing solutions?"
"Grandpa doesn't tell me anything did you manage to get more? Those solutions are really amazing." Said, Leslie.
"Cough, no not really" Commander Markos laughs embarrassingly. "I was just talking to the owner of the company that developed those solutions and found out they are developing a better solution than that special solutions, The effect is 10 times better, and I was promised the first batch when it was developed of course this is a secret, so you can't tell anyone about it."
"Sigh, that's great, but I'm really looking forward to those special solutions can you give me some please grandpa? Please, please, please!" Said Leslie having a puppy look.
"Markos looked at his favorite Granddaughter and sigh fine I'll give you two pieces you know I only have a few of them as they are really hard to get. Even those geezers paid a great amount just to get 200 of them a month." Said Markos sighing he really can't say no to this granddaughter of his.
"Yay! Thank you, grandpa, I love you so much hehe." Leslie giggles and jumps in joy she only acts like this in front of her Grandpa.
"Yeah yeah," right he sounds aggrieved, but his eyes are full of love, and he has a soft and loving smile on his face.
"By the way would you like to meet him?" Ask Markos.
He knows her granddaughter has an uncountable number of suitors but no one caught the eyes of her granddaughter and in fairness, he too found those brats too spoiled and not deserving of his granddaughter. But for some reason he has a good impression of that kid Arc and thinks he was a good match for her granddaughter after all no one ever did what Arc manages to do, making the top human superpower compromised and gives way to accommodate him. In fact, even he is powerless to do anything to Arc as he was holding all the cards making all those who want to negotiate with him powerless.
But Arc even though that's the case he was not overly arrogant and knows when to advance and when to give way so even though he can rip off GFA big time in every deal he didn't do that and only go for a maximum profit without crossing the line and often time he takes losses just to maintain a good relationship with other. Just like the deal, he made with him.
So Commander Markos has a good impression of Arc, and he's very easy to talk to, and those who have dealings with him have a good impression of him except for HFA as Arc for some reason have a prejudice against HFA. Well, Commander Markos doesn't like HFA very much too as they took advantage of Earth far too much without giving back in return.
And as a fellow human-Earth is a birthplace of humanity and therefore every human has an attachment to Earth and as for him who was part of the Royal Empire before he was transferred to GFA doesn't like what HFA was doing to Earth. And partly understand why Arc Doesn't like HFA. But oddly enough Admiral Ford who was from HFA and was the first to interact with Arc have a good relationship with him.
"I heard a lot about him grandpa, but I didn't think he's that interesting, but why not, sure!" After thinking about it, she found no disadvantage in meeting him. So she agreed and besides she was really interested in those special solutions.
When Markos heard Leslie's first sentence he sighs, he knows her granddaughter has a godly standard with regard to men but after hearing she agreed, he smiles. "Well, in that case, you'll be the one to hand over the Specter to him."
"Eh, grandpa you're giving him Specter?" She was very surprised the Specter is a special Space cruiser that his grandpa develops and designs himself it's one of his most price possessions many rich individuals have offered him a huge amount of money for it, but he never agreed to sell it, but now he is giving it away. How can she not be surprised?
"Sigh, to tell you the truth I can't find anything suitable to give him only Specter is the only thing I can't think of that I think that can interest him." Said Markos.
"What, he's that great?" Leslie was surprised. She didn't think there would be many surprises waiting for her when she decided to visit her most beloved Grandpa. And what's more all those surprises are all related to one man.
"It's not that. But I want to give him something that can't be bought with money as with his fortune there's nothing he can't have as long as he wants it." Said Markos.
"What do you mean by that grandpa?" She was confused "isn't he just an Earthling?" She thought in her mind.
"Ha, Even GFA has nothing to offer him that he needs the only reason we manage to convince him to enter a contract with us is that he wants a good relationship with GFA that's all.
He has over 50 kilometers of land in Liberty and has products anyone wants even Alien Race wants it money is never a problem with him. Just the transaction he has with us in GFA is amounting to 100s of billions of Bright Credits yearly not to mention more than 30 alien race shows interest and are willing to go to earth just to get his product, is there anything he can't buy with that much assets. And lastly, he has the monopoly of it no one else can even come close to the quality of the product his company is selling."
"Ohhh, I see I didn't think about that. I didn't know GFA is spending that many credits on solutions. As he is still considered a local company I didn't think too much about it."
Commander Markos continues to chat about Arc and as for Arc he was busy thinking and planning on how to quickly finish his current System mission.
Sneeze! "Hmm, is someone talking about me?" Said Arc.
He smiles thinking of beautiful women talking about him, but quickly continues his conversation with Eve.
