Chapter 6: Proposal
After he finished appreciating the street, he walked inside the office building. He walked with his back straight like a spear, his form was firm. It looked as if, rather than him stepping forwards, the floor moved backwards to create the motion and give him stability.
He arrived in front of the reception area, he initiated the conversation with the blonde girl with yellow eyes. "Could I meet with Mr. Louie?" he said, his eyes locking her yellow gem-like eyes, tapping his fingers to catch her attention.
"Of course, sir. Could I get your name, please?" the girl replied, escaping her eyes from his. She got a pen and paper ready to write his name down.
"Just tell him the best looking member of Dominus family, his nephew, Isaiah, is here to visit," he said with a playful tone, but it didn't ease the girl's nerves. It was clear she was new at her job. "Please wait a moment, Sir Isaiah," the girl went back inside to talk with a more experienced receptionist.
"Miss Chloe, there is a man waiting outside claiming to be the nephew of Mr. Louie," she asked the more experienced receptionist, Chloe. "Oh? Did Tresr came to visit?" Chloe asked. The girl replied right after, "He told me his name was Isaiah."
Curious as to the origins of the man, she went outside to greet the man. She was surprised to find the Tresr she knew standing in front of her, "Did you come to visit Mr. Louie, Sir Isaiah?" While surprised, she didn't let her professional front fall, not bringing up her curiosity.
"Yes, could you lead me to him, please?" As he was being led to his uncle's office, he smiled and decided to entertain her evident curiosity which she tried to hide, "Isaiah is my middle name."
She didn't reply back, but a smile formed on her face. After arriving in front of Louie's door, she gestured inside with a smile after opening the door for him, "Please, Mr. Isaiah."
Isaiah entered the office, immediately greeted by a surprised Louie, "Uncle, your favorite nephew is back." While he mused, he didn't stop his movements for a second, quickly getting seated, opening his suitcase and taking out the documents.
Louie didn't respond to his comment about him being his favorite nephew, as he only had a single nephew in the first place. "What are those documents? Did you come here to ask me about the documents I gave you yesterday?" Louie couldn't hide his curiosity regarding the origins and purpose of the documents in Isaiah's hand.
Isaiah gently placed the documents on Louie's table, "Take a look at them yourself." He waited as Louie went through the documents, he smiled as he watched the changes in Louie's expression as he read the documents, sometimes taking peeks at Isaiah in disbelief.
"Did you come up with all this yesterday?" he asked, not hiding his surprise.
Isaiah nodded, "Yes. All I need is 5 convicts to go missing..." He winked, "and a permit with government's signature to be able to enter and do work in the mana mines. Obviously, it would come in handy if you could provide me with protection within the mines."
Louie was thoughtful as he reclined to his chair and spoke, "Your last two wants can be granted easily. The problem will be the first one." He sighed, "Normally we could find the experiment subjects from a different source, but since the government will be involved, so we can't just circumvent them."
Isaiah shrugged, "I'm sure they won't mind it if we give them enough benefits. For example, how about we give them regulatory power over the method plus a third of the profits?"
Louie nodded, "I doubt they will care much about the profits, but the regulatory power might interest them." He looked at the documents once more, "Are you sure 5 subjects will be enough? Since we are involving the government, we have to show at least some results to continue getting their support."
Isaiah smiled, "Don't worry, 5 will be more than enough. Just make sure to get them to agree." With that, he tapped his desk, "You know where to find me when you get it done." With that, he walked out of his uncle's office, nodding at the receptionists on his way out. He didn't rush back home; instead, he thought back to the deal.
He actually didn't have to involve the government at all, however the faster he got in contact with the government officials, the better it was for him. Just as he was lost in his thoughts, a heavenly smell entered his nostrils.
The source of the smell was a small bakery. As he approached the bakery, the smell heightened. He smiled at the bakery clerk and inquired while pointing at a bread filled with purple fruit sitting on the display cabinet, "Can I learn what's inside this bread?"
The girl, whose purple hair matched the fruit inside the bread, replied, "This is our Amethyst Bread, sir. Its insides are filled with Amethyst Berry, only imported from the Violet Empire." She waited for Isaiah's reply with a gentle smile.
"Give me two, please," he passed her 50 gc. The price of one Amethyst Bread was 15 gc, but since he was in a good mood and she managed to sell it well, he decided to tip her. After the girl thanked him, he walked through the streets of the Silver City, enjoying the delicacies of life. The right side of the street soon opened to a sea. As the sun hit the ocean, and sunlight bounced back up to the silver buildings, it created a mesmerizing view. This was the ever so famous Shining Street, one of the most expensive areas to buy property from.
Isaiah enjoyed the view, accompanied by the delicious taste of his Amethyst Bread. Sounds of waves and boat sirens hit his ears, creating a serene and relaxing environment. It was moments like these that made him enjoy his transmigration the most.
