Chapter 103 - 103 - Recruitment [ Part 2 ]



"Haha! Ahahaha! You\'re quite adept at telling jokes, kid. Thanks for giving me a laugh in these dark times."

"I wasn\'t joking, Delmar." William tried to explain it to him.

"...Work for me. And I can provide you with any amount you desire."

Delmar finally took the kid\'s words seriously and inquired, "Why me? What exactly do you want from me? I\'m just an ordinary guy with limited knowledge about computers."

"Aaahaa. Tell that to the people you just shot missiles at." William said sarcastically to the man who just took care of an armed police force.

"Jokes aside, I genuinely want you to work for me."

"...I don\'t work for anyone anymore... now." Delmar said as his words held a distant meaning.

"Why, dude? I can give you anything you want. Just come over here, would you?" William tried to lure the dangerous man by his greed.

"Sorry, kid. I don\'t want to work for anyone who might be your boss or relative. Secondly, I don\'t appreciate being ordered around like a dog. It\'s not my style." Delmar said as he leaned back into his chair.

"Okay, firstly, you\'re not going to work for anyone other than me." Delmar didn\'t believe what William said but continued to listen.

"Secondly, you won\'t be ordered around like a dog. You can be yourself, and you\'ll only have to work whenever I ask you. You could always decline."

"I hear you, but the question remains... Why me?"

"Because someone who can keep himself safe from the royal forces and handle some of the hidden agents sent by great houses is a valuable asset." William spoke with a no-nonsense tone.

Delmar smiled, hearing the other side of the phone, and replied, "Ohh! So you\'ve been keeping an eye on me, huh?"

"...What the hell are you talking about, man? I just guessed that completely out of the blue."

Delmar stayed silent, realizing he had stupidly blurted that out. He quickly regained his composure and said, "But still, the amount I would ask for is too much for anyone to give, not even you, ki—"

"I\'ll give you 10 million dollars a week." William went straight to the point.

Delmar, hearing the kid over the receiver, was stumped for a second before he asked, "What!"

"I said I will give you 10 million dollars a week."

"...Be serious with me for a second, and even if you could, I would still need to see some evidence before I can actually believe what you just said."

"Alright, give me a second, okay," William said, and the phone got cut off.

Delmar waited to see if something would actually happen or not. He watched his computer monitor for any change. Nothing happened, and he thought sarcastically, \'Just as I thought, a load of bullshi—\'

The telephone beside him started ringing again. He picked it up and said, "So what happened, did you run out of money already?" Delmar asked William, maintaining a mocking smile.

"Look at your computer and see if there\'s something there or not."

Delmar did as instructed and looked, but there was nothing. "No, nothing happened, kid. You sure you got the righ—"

He was interrupted by a notification popping up on the computer. He clicked on it to see what it was. It was an electronic mail assigned to him, indicating that some money had been transferred to his account. To view it, he needed to input his password, so he did.

\'365,000,000\'

He looked at the number with his mouth agape, not knowing how to respond to the situation.

"So, because of the sudden silence, I can assume it was the right address then," William said mockingly.

"But—but how?"

"Dude, I just transferred you the money. Why are you even asking how I got it? Now tell me, are you going to work for me or not?"

"But why did you give me so much money?"

"Well... there are only 36 more weeks left in this year, so I gave you 360 million dollars for the entire year. And the extra 5 million... take that as the fee for your recruitment."

Delmar was stunned, hearing what William said over the telephone. He pondered, \'Is the kid actually telling the truth? He has to be. Otherwise, why would he give me so much money?

Who is this kid, really? I saw his records, but other than that freak of nature being his father who already kicked the kid out, he doesn\'t have anything.\'

\'The kid is becoming more and more mysterious.\'

\'And the amount of money he just gave me only makes it stranger. Why would someone... anyone would give so much money so quickly if there wasn\'t something equally dangerous about it.\'

Delmar straightened his posture and asked in a very serious tone, "What do you want me to do that warrants so much money without even blinking an eye?"

The other side of the phone was silent for a while until the next moment when words came through.

"...So many things."

"Hmm?" Delmar was confused, not understanding what he meant.

"There are so many things I want to do that require not only your help but also many others. And even though I want to tell you what it is, I can\'t over the phone like this."

"Okay... Are the jobs going to be dangerous?"

"Of course they\'re going to be dangerous. Otherwise, why would I even ask you to do the job?"

"Hah! So you want me to risk my life doing menial labor for you? Even if you give me a lot more money than you just did, why would I risk my life?"

"Okay, Mr. Sarcasm. You already do jobs that risk you getting killed. Secondly, you won\'t be doing menial jobs. NO, you\'ll be doing stuff that helps for a much greater cause."

"And what is this \'cause\' we\'re speaking about?"

"I want to revolutionize the world, Delmar."

Delmar, hearing what William said, knew he was talking to a fanatic, but he still listened.

"Why don\'t you work for me for some time and see for yourself whether it\'s worth it or not? And if you don\'t like it, you can leave anytime you want. And you can take the extra cash with you too."

Delmar thought for a while before he smiled at the thought of working for a world-revolutionizing fanatic and laughed as he never had worked for anyone like that before and wanted to see what it might bring.

"You know what! Sure, I\'ll work for you, kid. It was getting boring here anyway, so why not broaden my horizons."

"Alright then, come to the Wiseburn Kingdom, and we\'ll talk there." William cut the call after he said that.

Delmar pondered the new prospect and smiled for a while before typing something on the keyboard and then leaving the place.

As he left, the monitor displayed a countdown. The moment it hit zero, the vault and everything surrounding it started to crumble and explode until nothing was left of the desolate place.
