Ren parked Eira's limo at her villa while thinking.
[um... I'll have to go win some money at bets, I shouldn't win a lot of money, I might attract the attention of beautiful hostesses... damn I'm weak in the face of beauty, I'll have to be careful]
Ren thought to himself.
Eira pricked up her ears at that thought.
Eira decided to give Ren a gift, telling herself that it would be as a thank you.
-Ren.
"yes, boss?"
- I sent you a bonus to your account, check it later.
"??
[extra commission? how gorgeous]
"Thank you very much, boss.
Ren nodded with a smile to Eira.
Eira stared at Ren's smile for a few seconds before getting out of the limo.
-I'll wait for you here tomorrow at 5 in the morning.
"I'll be punctual.
.
.
.
Eira left home at 4:57 am.
Not seeing Ren, she frowned.
'Didn't I tell you here early?
Eira checked her watch and saw that it was 3 minutes to 5.
Eira waited at the door with a cold expression as she looked at her watch.
Eira checked her watch, and with 30 seconds left until 5:00, she saw the limo arriving at her location.
Ren arrived at exactly 5:00 am.
Eira entered the limo while she commented.
"you were late.
-excuse me boss
[what is wrong with this stupid woman? You told me 5 and 5 when I got here]
Eira realized that it was really her order, to arrive at 5, usually her driver arrived half an hour before that time.
'I'll have to be more specific tomorrow, or this idiot will leave me speechless again.
Eira felt ridiculous before Ren, in the mouth-to-mouth, she won, but in Ren's thoughts she lost and was belittled, she didn't like that.
Eira sighed as she tried to contact her secretary without success.
"what's going on?
Eira called Ariana for the 3rd time, but she didn't answer the phone, she just left a message.
-I can't go today president, excuse my absence.
Eira was planning to reduce her salary to Ariana for this.
"Won't he come today?"
Seeing Eira's expression, Ren guessed something and told Eira.
-Boss, excuse my intrusion, she sent me a message last night saying that she was attacked.
Ren answered Eira indifferently, he was not worried about Ariana, after reading the message, Ren located her and her location was her house, so she must be safe.
Hearing that, Eira got worried and called Ariana again.
This time Ariana answered.
-Yeah?
Ariana's voice was heard a little agitated, which Eira ignored as she asked.
"Are you okay? Did they attack you yesterday?"
-I'm... fine president, just a little tired from escaping from those guys, I was lucky that someone saved me, I'll be fine.
Ariana sounded like she had difficulty speaking, Eira exchanged a few more words before hanging up.
[did someone save her? Could it be kyou? or is she really so scared about yesterday, whatever it may be, it will be annoying for this stupid woman to do the job of her secretary, poor idiot who has to replace him]
Ren thought mockingly, he hates office work and knows firsthand how harassing he must be.
Eira hearing Ren's thoughts, came up with a way to get revenge for every insult from Ren, she spoke in a tone not as cold as always to Ren.
"Ren.
-Yes, boss?
"Do you want a bonus?"
Ren instinctively had a bad feeling, as a being who visited different worlds, known by the author as a "slacker from the multiverse", he sometimes felt when someone wanted to hand him annoying work.
-Can I reject it?
"No
Ren didn't know why, but he could feel that Eira's voice was lighter, as if he had gotten something he wanted.
-...
"I'll dock your pay if you don't do it right.
-...
Ren felt aggrieved, and worse still, he felt like the poor idiot he just cursed knowing that he would have to do office work.
The worst thing is that Ren couldn't do anything, he still didn't get rewards for plots and he hadn't received his first salary, Ren who was broke could only accept with a smile uglier than eating shit.
At this moment Ren was not a happy soldier.
.
.
.
Eira could be seen sitting in her office reviewing, discarding, and signing documents when someone knocked on her door.
"forward.
The door opened and Ren's figure was shown with a large stack of documents, Ren had taken off his vest and rolled up his shirt sleeves, he looked quite handsome along with his serious look and hair slightly damp with sweat, but he didn't care. It looked bad on him nor did it have a bad smell, on the contrary, Ren gave off a manly smell.
It is said that serious men at work are the most handsome, Eira had to admit that there was some truth in that phrase.
Ren, on the other hand, put the documents aside while he gave his report to Eira.
- your 11:23 am conference room meeting with the investor was postponed to 2 pm after lunch, and the 2 o'clock meeting was postponed to 5, according to your orders, all 20 investment plans were reviewed according to your requirements in what you are looking for, of those 20 there are 5 that have debt problems, 3 with internal problems, but 1 of them has a new president, that would be the easiest to get great benefits if you move quickly.
" ...because?
Eira's tone as he listened to the report was simple curiosity.
- he is very young, just out of university, his grandfather died 3 days ago and he is not allowed to fail, it will be easy to move him because of the loss, certain members in the Fujikuro group want renovations, I put the proposals in the folder red...
As Ren continued to speak the summary of the report to him, Eira could hardly keep her gaze serious because of the amusement and irony.
'Didn't you say you hated office work?
Eira was pleasantly surprised by Ren's ability, Eira finally felt that someone was keeping up with her at work and therefore she was happy, she could now continue giving her all with her work today, unlike other days.
Ariana, her secretary, and friend, is good at her job, unfortunately, Eira is too good and efficient when she does her job and she currently leaves Ariana mostly her schedule and filing work, In the beginning, it often happened that Ariana couldn't keep up with her, so Eira reduced the amount of daily work she did out of consideration, but even so, Ariana always seems to be adjusted as if she has a heavy workload.
Ren, on the other hand, is another story, he finishes everything he asks of him quickly without any failure and he is attentive to everything Eira may need.
It's like if before Eira had a gun with Ariana, now with Ren it's like having a machine gun, a world of difference.
Eira was quite happy about this, for the first time in her career, she could give her all at work, although she knew it would only be for one day.
Ren, without knowing how happy his boss was, continued on his way to the exit to wait for new orders.
"hang on a minute.
-Yeah?
"stay behind me
Ren nodded silently and stood behind Eira.
[um...I haven't done office work in a while, I'm a little rusty, but it seems like the boss is considerate in a certain way, plus she doesn't take a break from work all day]
Eira will turn 22 this year, unlike Ren who, although this body is 24, Ren's experience is on another level, even so, the president did not stop all day.
[the boss is a very capable, efficient, and excellent woman at what she does...]
Hearing Ren's rare praise, Eira couldn't help but feel happy.
when someone admires your work, it always gives a person that satisfaction, especially for Eira, who was always underestimated by all men and was only going to be used as wife material, that's why she rejected the marriage that her father gave her.
Ren's next words made all of Eira's good spirits collapse.
[so why did she have to be so stupid? If I remember correctly after she abandons her marriage for Kyou and escapes from her family like a bitch, with Kyou and her resources she will take control of her entire family and her entire company, and the fruit of her work will be given to him.. .but the woman I work for is someone quite capable and intelligent, only because of the novel will she be destined to be one of kyou's many wives... yes this heroine is totally brainless in fields other than the office]
Ren sighed internally, as he summarized Eira's story in the novel.
[let's see... according to the original plot, Eira Fujikuro was forced by her family to accept a marriage, and when she was most desperate, boom! The dragon king took her away from the engagement party, after kyou had broken the shackles on her heart, he became her only support...
Eira fell in love with Kyou and became Kyou's first wife.
not only did he leave a good man like Paul in misery, but there is even a scene where Paul falls under the feet of kyou who was hugging Eira and mocking... quite a cold heartless bitch, I guess to each his own. You can make your own decisions.
Have you... left behind your father who raised you for 20 years for a man you met in a month? Then, come back sometime later as a person who would ignore his father's life with the family, just because of a grudge against his stepmother, and would only focus on kyou? ... but well, I don't think I'll be there by the time he gets to that moment]
Ren sighed to himself, as he continued to wait for Eira's orders.
Eira on the other hand...
'Will I become a person like that?
Eira's mind felt complicated by Ren's words.
Eira didn't like Paul, nothing could change that, but to hear that she would be able to abandon her entire family completely to finally be one of kyou's many women?
That was honestly absurd, but it seems that Ren completely believed that.
[Eira's father only followed the customs of his family, being threatened by them to follow the beliefs they had long ago, but from what I read in the novel and what I investigated yesterday, it was certain that he was going to give her the position head of the family to Eira in the future if Eira got more influence, but that would be screwed thanks to Kyou's plan of selling and saving Eira, in the end Eira stood alone in her misfortune, truly sad]
Ren wasn't going to get involved in Eira's family mess either.
The mission of this world came to Ren recently while he was rewarded yesterday.
[reward for successful completion of the plot]
[business thinking – advanced level – obtained]
[new mission acquired – complete the plot]
[reward: host's sister's soul fragment.
Failure: rest for a thousand more years]
Ren's main goal in coming to this world is something and only something.
a fragment of his sister's soul from his first life.
When the system brought him here, his sponsor (author) said that there was a soul fragment of his sister in this world, but Ren didn't know where exactly it was, so his sponsor made a deal with the destiny deity of this world and They offered Ren that, if he completed the plot of this novel, Ren could recover said fragment.
Ren accepts the order and decides to leave the plot as it is, for now, he is working for Eira, when Kyou saves her from the engagement Ren automatically resigns to preserve the plot and leave the protagonist of this world with his destiny.
Ren cannot kill Kyou either, as a child of destiny, this entire world practically revolves around Kyou's benefit, therefore, if Kyou dies, his sister's soul fragment will go to another universe just like him, on the other hand, if kyou kills him, Ren will lose the chance to find his sister's soul fragment in this world for a while, according to the system, 1000 more years in human years.
So Ren's new purpose was to live until the end of the novel.
Both Eira and Ren had heavy thoughts in their minds, but neither had stopped their respective works.
