Kane thought hard but couldnt think of a way he could be of help to someone who ran multiple organizations and had his arrogant grandpa, Rami Kaga, fears him despite being 17-year-old.
Kane, I know you are grateful. You dont have to go out of your way to prove it. I appreciated Kanes resolve, but like how his trauma stopped him from believing in people similarly, my past made me want to control every aspect of my life.If I cant control something, I dont trust it. That is one of the reasons why I keep Anna at arms length despite the soul contract between us. She cant harm me, but I cant stop her if she really wants to harm me. And to avoid attracting attention, I rarely use the calamity daughter gems.
Thank you, Master Wyatt. You are right. The current me cannot be of any help to you, so it is ambitious of me to be your subordinate. Therefore I have decided to start from the bottom.
Master Wyatt, please allow me to join one of your organizations and start from the bottom. I will climb ranks and prove myself worthy of being your subordinate. Kane did not give up. He understood with his current capabilities, he was of no help to his idol, but he believed he could learn and become someone worthy.
This I was taken back seeing Kanes resolve to express his gratitude. Honestly, I do not feel like I did something worthy of Kanes appreciation. He already paid me more than enough for the services I provided to him as a card creationist. But I understood where he was coming from.
I didnt just help create an origin card for him but a life partner with whom he can share his burdens and rely on. This may not be appreciated by many, but for someone like him, whom his peers and society had rejected, this was a huge deal. He was no longer alone in this two-faced, cruel world.
Please, Master Wyatt. Dont say no. I am already an adult. So let me start living my life my way by showing my appreciation for you. And I trust that if I follow you, I can unleash my full potential and achieve much more than anywhere else. Kane pleaded. He made it clear that he planned to give up on his family, high school, and college to follow his idol and build a career around him.
What? Hearing Kane, I was dumbfounded. I felt like I heard the craziest joke of the year. What he said was insane to listen to. He wanted to drop out of high school to work for me instead of attending college. How crazy is that? For someone who has zero trust in people, he was putting a lot of faith in me. I guess hes one of those guys who has a hard time trusting people, but once someone manages to gain his trust, he is willing to do anything for them.
Kane stared at me with bright resolute eyes. Looking at them, I almost said yes. But he/his origin card had too much potential to waste time by starting from the bottom. Therefore I decided to give him a test, and by the end of it, if he still wants to follow me, then so be it, Kane, you have great potential. It would be a waste for you to start from the bottom. Instead, I have another proposal for you. If you are up for it, we can reach an agreement.
Anything you say, Master Wyatt, Kane replied humbly, but I felt a fanatic vibe from him. And his target of obsession was me.
For now, I will add you to my reserve group. It consists of talented people who with proper guidance can become the pillar of the new world order. I had to create a new group to satisfy Kanes request. And why was I going this far for him? Because I want to. Influencing people to trust me was nothing new to me, but to find someone who was genuinely willing to be your follower is rare. I wanted to test him, and if he passed, I would give him an opportunity for him to become useful to me.
Annas eyebrow raised, hearing her love interest speak big revolutionary words like new world order. If it were someone else, Anna would have scoffed at him, but her crush was different. If it was him, then the new world order he spoke of was possible, which was not good news for her family, who are the pillars of the current world order.
If it were a month ago, Anna would have nipped any bud that could grow into a crisis for her family without a thought. Even now, nothings changed except the person in question has stolen her heart. And she can not bring herself to harm a single hair on his body.
Reserve group? I accept it! What are our duties? Kane asked enthusiastically. He seemed to be genuinely happy to be part of something big which had nothing to do with his family. This was his and his alone.
To grow, I said with stern eyes.
To grow? Despite his blind faith in his idol, Kane felt that he was being treated as a child by his idol. But still, Kane decided to give his role model a chance to explain himself.
Bottom work, I have other people for that. What I need you to do is complete your high school, forge your ego fem and attend Morning Star university along with me or as my junior. The TSR guild, Tiger Squadron, Fine Gold, and Bright Lions were my forces for the sky blossom city. I will soon move to the central academic city, and I cannot take these organizations along with me to create and establish my power over there. That is where someone with Kanes origin card could come in handy.
