Chapter 100: The Scheme

No one was there when he arrived at the diner. He then looked at the time and realized that the lunch break was over. Jaehwang sat down at a table and ordered a serving of chicken porridge. It was the first time that he had eaten a real meal in a while after all this time.

Ding!

Someone then came in through the door of the diner.

“Where is that idiot!” He turned his head and saw Jaehwang. He still shouted as he left. “Ugh! That dumbass!”

Jaehwang then looked ahead to see what was going on and saw Dongchul. He looked very tired, lost and confused. He then seemed to notice Jaehwang looking at him.

“Oh, hi again. It’s been awhile.”

Jaehwang said and Dongchul then replied. “Huh? “Hello?” you’re going to get it!”

He charged at him. He ran through the door of the restaurant and all the way towards where Jaehwang was sitting.

“Don’t try to take back what you said!” Dongchul’s fist was then surrounded by a black ball of energy. Jaehwang jut remained in his seat and paid him no attention, he had already sensed what was happening and he’s ready to block it if necessary.

He trained in the same training room he was currently training in so he knew all of his moves. Dongchul then slammed his fist onto the table and he used his free hand to send Jaehwang flying into another table.

“What the heck are you doing? I’m just trying to eat…” Jaehwang said as he picked himself up. He was still holding his spoon in his right hand.

“What am I doing? What have you been telling Gwanjae?! If that’s what you think of me then this is how I’ll be!”

“Are you talking about the training?”

“The training? Is that what you call training?! I’ll show you the training and we’ll see how you like it!”

Dongchul shouted and Jaehwang just smirked. “I guess I’ll just have to teach you a lesson.”

“Huh?”

“Since you think you can teach me a lesson then maybe I can teach you something too.”

“Whatever ” Dongchul shouted back to Jaehwang. He thought that if he could survive Gwanjae’s training then he could easily handle Jaehwang.

“Shut up and take a seat. I haven’t eaten in ten days so I need to eat right now.” Jaehwang said.

“So you don’t want to fight? Have you gotten stronger?” Dongchul asked but Jaehwang said nothing in reply and just ate his food. Dongchul then went and sat next to him. He had a big frame making the chairs look miniature compared to him. “Are you done training?”

“Yeah…”

“What the hell happened to you these past days?”

“I had no time to eat.”

“You should have come back to visit me more often.”

“I didn’t want to disrupt your training with Gwanjae.” Jaehwang replied as he ate.

Dongchul smiled and murmured, “I see…”

Jaehwang then finished his food and went back to the counter. “Could I have another serving?”

“Sure, wait right here.” Jaehwang handed the female employee the bowl. The place was pretty empty so getting another serving was no problem for her. He thanked the employee and returned back to his seat with the bowl full of food.

Dongchul then asked him, “It seems that you’ve gotten stronger.”

He asked after thinking about how he dodged his attack while Jaehwang continued to eat.

“Can you teach me?”

“…”

“Don’t be surprised. Gwanjae’s training is terrible and I’ll do whatever it takes to avoid it.” Dongchul said. Jaehwang nodded his head in reply. Gwanjae’s way of training actually suited Dongchul quite well. It was the best way for him to become a master.

He kept eating to avoid his questions but he continued to ask.

“What kind of skill did you gain?”

“Uh, well…”

“Congratulations.”

“Thanks.”

Dongchul just sat in his chair as he seemed to have calmed down even if there was no reason for him to be angry in the first place. He chose Gwanjae’s training for him and he had a good reason for it.

He could have surprised him if he had trained a bit more. Jaehwang knew that and that’s the reason why he asked his grandfather to train him.

Jaehwang continued to eat and he was soon satisfied. After starving himself for a few days, it took some time for the food to actually fill him.

Tak…

Jaehwang quickly put his spoon down onto the table.

“What’s wrong?…” Dongchul asked.

“I have to go to the bathroom.” He then quickly walked out of the diner.

“Phew… Great.”

“It’s only a small achievement.”

“But, it’s good enough.” Gwanjae went to Jaehwang in his office and checked in about the situation.

“Everything was great but your speed didn’t match up. Even though you trained for an entire ten days, I checked the improvement of your strength and now you seem to be much better at managing it…” Gwanjae’s words weren’t simply just a compliment. He was actually very curious. If Jaehwang was him he would be interested too.

“Should I teach you?”

Gwanjae then smiled at Jaehwangs question. There was no way he would learn something from his lessons, but he was going to give him a chance anyway.

The office door then opened and Mr. Hwang walked in. His expression was a little dull.

“Father,” He said to Gwanjae.

“Hm?”

“There’s a very important meeting going on right now that needs your attention.” Mr. Hwang said with a serious expression. Gwanjae then stood up from his chair and asked,

“What’s going on?”

“It’s a very important situation,” Mr. Hwang hinted as if Gwanjae would already know what he’s talking about.

“Did you already release the information? Have you checked it already?”

“There are guards on standby.” Mr. Hwang replied. Gwanjae then looked back at Jaehwang and said,

“Come with us.”

Jaehwang nodded his head and followed Gwanjae and Mr. Hwang out of the office. They walked into the meeting room and they were welcomed by four people sitting on their chairs.

“Shall we begin?” One of them asked.

“Yes,” Gwanjae said as he took a seat.

“Jaehwang, the data you’ve brought back is currently being examined so while that is happening, we’ll keep an eye out for the other matters that may need our attention.”

“And also…”

“Yes, all of it is being examined as we speak. We have received some great attention from the stock market and from our investors. The company that we had established in these past five years is now exploding in success.”

“But, what are those guys in the Daehyeon group planning?” Jaehwang asked.

“They’re secretly gathering some materials to increase their stocks. Our team has already arranged an event in one month so we could have more options.”

“Is there an expected amount to receive from the stock market in our country?” One of them asked.

“The expected amount is around 34 million.” Mr. Hwang replied.

“Hm…”

“Is there anyone of us close enough to use their connections to the Daehyeon group?”

“Maybe the investment company’s vice chairman…”

Everything was then quiet for a moment.

“We’ll have to speak with him. Everything’s going great so far. Keep doing what you’re doing.” Gwanjae sat back in his chair and placed his hands on the armrest.

“So, we have to get close to the president of the team, Lee Hyeongyu… Does anyone have any ideas?”

“That will be quite difficult.”

“Ugh, Hyeongyu… I hate that guy!” Gwanjae shouted.

Lee Hyeongyu somehow easily became the president. He lacked a lot of things but he still won over the people. However, after he became in charge, he didn’t do the things he had promised and he had gained a terrible reputation.

“If we can get on the good side of their president, we would be able to give the Daehyon group a good beating.”

“Right, then we can get some inside information and come up with a plan to attack them.”

“By the way, is Japan still involved on their side?”

“Possibly. Japan received a lot of funds after their victory. They also sent undercover soldiers to steal some gears from the training center in Justin Point.”


“The country is safe for now due to the aftermath of the attack on their secret laboratory, but some are still in hiding.” Mr. Hwang said.

“I thought that that one room was destroyed.”

Gwanjae made a mistake. If he had considered what happened in Justin Point then he could have avoided this kind of disaster. They had a lot to take care of.

“Wait!”

“Yes, Gwanjae?”

“Do you have a plan?”

He stopped to think for a moment and then replied, “First we’ll have to plan our timing very carefully. The fastest way would be to find some supporters, however, we can’t settle with Justin Point in their current state. We’ll have to only accept the best we can receive.”

“Is there a support term we can get?”

“From what I’ve calculated, we should be able to get a two-month term. But remember, the situation turned into this due to the country’s support and the mistake in the situation. It’ll be hard to avoid any damage on our side.”

The Scheme, The end.
