Chapter 1901 – 1901. The Dark Moon
The wagon pulled by the mechanical horse for combat drew closer and closer. I saw things I couldn’t see. It’s not just machine language. The wagon itself was also modified for combat.
Neo-London gentlemen and aristocrats do not like excessive tuning. The purer it is, the better it is, and the closer it is to the root, the nobler it is. That was their basic idea.
It means that people who ride such carriages have many enemies. It can be seen that he accumulated wealth through illegal work. Like a gang or something.
The carriage pulls up in front of us and stops. The coachman glanced around and opened the carriage door.
Clap!
The carriage’s steel door opened, and the maid was the first to get out. A gray-haired maid with a cigarette in her mouth. Half of his face was covered in black tattoos. Her attitude was bad, but the maid uniform she was wearing was neat and orderly. He carries a spear on his back.
“Come out. There are no enemies. Not even a trap.”
The gray-haired maid smoked a cigarette while talking cynically.
Next, the man who got off the carriage had pale blond hair and unusually long limbs. He unleashed his mana as soon as he set his foot on his land. Feeling the pulsating mana, he narrowed his brows.
It would be rude to look at the liver with a mana wave right away, but the mana wave itself was quite sophisticated. If you look at mana handling in this way, you are a wizard with a probability of over 90%.
“I’ve been waiting for you, Hi-Tek!”
Broker Marik smiled bravely and approached the man. The man said without even being greeted.
“What are those?”
Those. It was referring to YuRia and me. I calmed down the mana that was about to boil. As you can see, this guy was a jerk doing illegal things. You don’t have to react to that one word. Glance. I looked at YuRia. She just stands behind me with an expressionless face. However, those eyes were much colder than usual.
“Oh, because they are also interested in the factory that was put up for sale this time. We decided to watch it together.”
“Is that the first time you’ve heard of that?”
“I forgot to tell you earlier.”
“…”
The man’s face contorts. Marik’s behavior would be embarrassing to that man as well. The man glared at Marik as if he were going to kill him, but Marik only laughed shamelessly.
‘There is no connection between that man and Marik. It’s fortunate.’
If there was a connection between the two of them, coming here would have been a waste of time.
It was easy to understand Marik’s intentions. He wants the two of us to compete for the factory. That way the factory could be sold at a higher price.
The man also looked this way to see if he understood the ulterior motive. He looks at me first and once again creates a mana wave. If the mana wave he created earlier was to announce his existence, now it was a mana wave for exploration.
‘If I’m ignored here, I’ll be annoyed.’
It wasn’t a skill to be patient.
I also created a mana pulse. Invisible mana waves collide in the air. My mana wave broke the man’s mana wave and passed through the body of the man and the maid.
The gray-haired maid’s expression became subtle, and the man frowned. He looked at me, saw Yuria who was taking a step back, and looked at the carriage I was riding in.
I knew that the man’s head was spinning fast. Soon the man’s face becomes calm. I don’t know what’s inside, but at least there’s no hostility on the outside.
He must have realized that I was not a mage, and she must have appreciated my wealth after seeing Yuria’s appearance and Unicorn company’s first-class carriage.
A man and a maid approach.
“Hello. It’s fate that we met like this, so let’s start with a full name. It’s called Gillian Hitech.”
Gillian held out his hand and asked for a handshake. He honestly didn’t like it, but in Neo London, anyone who ignores a handshake is called a rogue. I can’t ignore the handshake even for my reputation. Of course, those who play tricks on a handshake are treated as bastards in the world.
“This is Eugene Meyer. It’s an unexpected meeting, so I’m a little embarrassed.”
“Our high-tech family is in the transportation business. I am thinking of buying a factory and expanding my business this time. What kind of business do you do?”
“I am running a catering business. Have you ever heard of Yu-Yu Chicken?”
“Ah. The chicken franchise that has been going well these days? You have met a rising divinity.”
Gillian’s eyes were mixed with subtle contempt. It was also a familiar look. Food service was not a business that was treated well in neo-London.
“Now, now, gentlemen. Now that you’ve said goodbye, let’s go inside the factory. Time is gold. Aren’t they the ones who are free from each other?”
Marik interrupted. We followed him to the factory. I can hear the maids talking in the back.
“It’s the first time I see a maid. I am barbara As you can see, they specialize in security.”
“My name is Yuria Grace. I am assisting the master.”
“Oh, the secretary side? So what’s the rating? I am a double.”
What she asks is the rank of maid and butler. More precisely, the grade stamped on the certificate obtained after completing the Maid Academy. There are a total of seven ranks, and if it’s a double, it’s second from the bottom. Being second from the bottom is not something to be ignored. Just having a maid license can be considered an elite.
“… There are no licenses.”
“Aha.”
The gray-haired maid laughs.
“You’re a folding screen maid hired for her looks. Bona Mana, wailing on the bed is probably her main job.”
“Kuk.”
Gillian, who was walking next to me, smiles. Seeing the corner of his mouth wriggling, it seems that he is holding back his laughter.
While I felt the urge to hit the head of the gray-haired maid, I thought of YuRia wailing on the bed.
‘Come to think of it, I’m not wrong. YuRia wails on my bed every night.’
I sneakily checked YuRia’s complexion. If she didn’t look good, she was going to argue with them right away, but her complexion was calm.
“Double… I know your level. I can’t do anything else besides fighting. His way of speaking is also vulgar, so he must have failed the liberal arts course. I hate people like you who tarnish the name maid.”
“What?”
“Haha.”
I laughed. Some laughed on purpose, but some laughed because it was really funny.
“A bitch who has nothing but looks.”
“A maid is a minion. The dignity of a maid represents the dignity of her master. In that sense, you need to work on your character and appearance a bit more.”
A giggle was heard. Gillian was laughing. He could tell what his character was like by the way his maid laughed at being insulted.
“Oh, is that so? You are good at talking about subjects without qualifications. Just looking at it, it seems that he trusts his master and is acting like that, but he won’t live long like that in this city.”
“Barbara, leave it at that. You were rude.”
Gillian, who erased his smile, stepped out. Barbara frowned at her.
“Yes. Yes. I’m just another bad bitch.”
“Being a maid doesn’t mean you have to have a license. You didn’t have a license until three years ago, didn’t you?”
“I was a mercenary back then.”
“Okay. I was a mercenary back then. What the maid said was not wrong. If you do something vulgar, I, the owner, will become vulgar, so be careful with your attitude.”
“Ah yes.”
Barbara replied in annoyance. Gillian clicked his tongue but said nothing more. You cannot insult or force a maid just because she is the owner. It’s actually an employment relationship. She said that if the maid didn’t like her, she could fire her, and if the master didn’t like her, she could quit the maid’s job.
As I was walking down the street, I was thinking about my maid license.
‘I knew that a maid license was important in the maid world, but… I didn’t know that Yuria would be ignored so blatantly just because she didn’t have a license.’
Barbara’s character is bad. She said it was not something she would pass on. I will go up Of course, you will meet the upper class and the nobility. At that time, the maids and butlers would secretly ignore Yuria.
In other words, the same thing can happen over and over again.
‘I’ll have to tell Yuria to get her license.’
Her original intention was to send her to her maid academy. She was also Yuria’s purpose. However, she tried to ignore the fact that she had to break up with Yuria. No, after she graduated from the maid academy, she could go somewhere else.
‘Hmm. What should I do to catch YuRia? Should I raise her salary? Or not…’
One way that comes to mind.
Was pregnant I’m layering my body every night, so if you make up your mind and try to get pregnant…
‘Did that go too far?’
While I was absorbed in my thoughts, I arrived at the front gate of the factory. Marik pointed to the factory with one hand and spoke in an exaggerated voice.
“Now, look at the exterior of the factory. Isn’t that neat? The factory was built only 3 years ago. And it’s new construction in three years.”
Except for a little dust, the factory itself was clean. The dust itself is what needs to be done by cleaning the factory.
“I don’t know what kind of factory you two will do, but the land and area are not bad. However, it is a bit small for mass production. If you put in a few machines, it should be said that it is full.”
Marik spoke without hesitation about his shortcomings. He already knows That much of a downside is not even a downside. Anyone can tell from the size of the factory that mass production is difficult.
‘It’s a factory, you can grow it later. It’s important to start operating first and produce steadily.’
I took a quick look around the outside of the factory. Looking back, the space was a bit disappointing.
“Ruler. It’s the most important inside. Please go in.”
Entered the factory.
“Wow.”
Gillian gave a little admiration. Surprisingly, I was the same. Because the machines remained inside the factory. Moreover, it was in very clean condition.
“Why do machines remain?”
I asked Marik.
