The Extra of The Lunerra

We came to an agreement that Clara’s status as a seer would be kept secret from everyone in the way I wanted, and I reviewed the contract that the prince wanted Clara to sign and confirmed that there was nothing problematic.

In this way, Clara’s case slowly began to settle down.

Next was... the Eshaware problem.

On the night of the day we went to the palace, Eshaware sent a memorandum to Cevilian. As soon as it became clear that I was the person who was going to deal with the Laute Family matter, they asked for a meeting, as soon as possible... only four days away.

But, of course, I told the prince that I would not accept this request for a meeting immediately, no matter how much trouble it would cause.

I won’t refuse forever, of course. I’ll just try to get the prince to postpone it as long as possible.

After all, before we go to the meeting, we need to spread the fake story of Adrian and Alysia on social media, on the whole planet.

And we need to do it in such a way that we don’t get caught, anonymously, as if it were leaked information.

And that requires time, at least a week.

That’s why I’m here.

At the residence of one of my most recent connections.

At Virhen House, in the office of Julian’s father Jonathan Virhen... in person.

"Social media manipulation, huh..."

He still had the same appearance generally, but his eyes looked a little confused and thoughtful compared to the last time we met.

"Yes. As we discussed before, we have a goal to unite all the races so that they can fight together. And I want to use the Laute Family case as an opportunity to bring the Eshaware, the elves, to our side."

Jonathan Virhen... was a man of the law.

Of course, the fact that their role as a family of pillars was to oversee the counts in the kingdom had a lot to do with that.

But even he recognized that the law had to be bent at some point.

"We will show Adrian Caleo and Alysia Laute as heroes who were ready to sacrifice themselves for the good, and to a certain extent did."

He could have figured out the rest himself, he was a smart man.

And he did.

It was clear from his expression that he had thought of all possible scenarios in his mind.

"Two days."

And that’s what finally came out of his mouth.

"For what?"

"We need two days to get a small team together and start spreading the story secretly. On the third or fourth day the story will start to spread. By the fifth or sixth day, given how big an issue it is, it will be trending. If it stays in the news for a few days after that, I think you can go to Eshaware with the media behind you." ṛΑŊՕBĘ𐌔

Ah, he wasn’t thinking of possible scenarios...

He’s already planning.

"Prince Lucas, the royal family, is behind us. If you don’t see a problem with revealing our connection, we can work together to push the deadline back."

He didn’t seem too surprised, after hearing what I said.

And at the same time he didn’t seem to care much about what I was saying.

"The sooner the better, I don’t see a problem."

Good... he’s acting entirely in terms of the end result of everything. Experience more content on NovelBin.Côm

"It’s just..."

I paused for a moment at what I heard, unable to stop my brow from furrowing slightly.

"Just?"

"I want you to take Julian with you to Eshaware."

Huh?

"Introduce him to politics, Aiden. Use him as your assistant of sorts when dealing with Eshaware. Show him how things work among the giants, like kingdoms."

Ah, I see...

"Sure, I don’t see a problem with that."

He wants his son to become more mature, to be someone who does big things rather than someone who just sits on the sidelines...

An understandable and perfectly acceptable request.

I have my own plans for Julian, anyway.

*******

On my return to the academy from Virhen House, when I arrived in front of my dorm room, I waited for a short while before opening the door and going inside.

Because... I didn’t think I would be able to come in here very often from now on.

I had one thing after another to take care of, piling up. I was going here and there, always dealing with something.

And it was only going to increase, not decrease.

No matter how many people were working for me, who could help me with these things... I would be busier and busier.

It wasn’t that big of a problem, actually, no.

It was just... a realization that made me understand that my comfortable life at the academy was over.

I squinted, sighed slightly, and finally opened the door.

The lights were off, no one was inside.

I went into the living room, threw myself down on my couch, closed my eyes, leaned back as far as I could, and rested my head on the soft fabric of the couch.

I waited like that for a while. The darkness, the silence... it was nice. It was relaxing, even.

I could have stayed like this for a long time, which is what I wanted...

But then I opened my eyes.

And... what I saw left me at a loss.

After all, what greeted me was a note hanging from the ceiling.

My eyes stayed on the note for a long time.

Did she specifically predict that I would sit on this couch? Is it a habit of mine that I didn’t realize, or...

Wait, how did she stick it to the ceiling, though?

I took a deep breath, slowly got up from the couch, lifted my cane, poked the note on the ceiling a little, and dropped it down.

It said something simple.

Go eat.

Well, it wasn’t that I wasn’t hungry...

And, with that thought, I decided to do what she said. I went to the kitchen. And, just as I expected, a wrapped plate was waiting on the counter.

When I removed the cover and looked inside, I was greeted with a bowl of rice and baked meatballs with potatoes and gravy.

And... it was good, honestly.

She seemed to be improving day by day.

Who knows, maybe she was even taking a special course. It was a move I would expect from her.

I finished the plate and returned to the living room. But this time, instead of simply waiting in the dark and silence, I went to my desk and dialed a number.

The call was soon answered.

"Yes, Aiden?"

"Are you available, Alex?"

"Yes, come in."

"I will send you a medicine tomorrow. I want you to analyze it personally with Ulka. Research the components and how you can produce the medicine. It will be a bit of a challenge, it’s a medicine for a disease you’ve never seen before, with ingredients you’ve never seen before. But I want it ready in a week."

After all, Alysia’s medicine is not easy to prepare. But we need to start making new ones before she runs out of them. Otherwise, I will simply be leading Alysia to her death.

"What is the basis of the disease?"

"I’ll send you the details along with the medicine."

"Understood."

A small silence fell between us after his confirmation, but it was short-lived.

"We’ve started mass production of the potions. They’ll be available for the first time on the market in a few days. If Ulka and my predictions hold, we will have more money than we can spend in a month."

Instead of hanging up the call and minding his own business, he had chosen to report to me.

I wasn’t going to complain, of course. It was an important matter, after all.

"We need to have a meeting soon, to discuss and finalize some things. At the same time, we’ll meet with our staff, who are relatively high-ranking."

The companies that will try to stand in our way in the market, which products we will mass-produce next, the shopping giants we want to deal with... and much more.

"When would you be available?"

"Try for next weekend."

"Understood."

In this way, we had small conversations about small matters for the next few minutes.

And our last conversation was about the academy, which I was curious.

"What about Maeve and Cassandra?"

"As per your last request, Cassandra has become close to Maeve. For now, their relationship doesn’t seem to have changed much. Maeve is wary of Cassandra. But there’s a rumor going around the academy that the two are becoming friends, so we can say it’s going the way we want it to."

Maeve has an important place in my future plans. She’s the heiress of a pillar family, after all. She’s also very capable in terms of management, leadership, and so on.

With the growing number of things I have to deal with, I can’t spend time on each one personally. That’s why I need someone like her, someone who can manage other lines of business without any problems while I take care of more important things.

Lucia, Julian, Maeve, Cassandra, Alexander, all my connections and noble families... and more.

All of them are people who can and will take care of important matters for me when the time comes.

"I see."

"Oh, also... a spirit has offered me a contract."

...

Huh?

What... did he say?

"A spirit?"

Alex was silent for a moment, as if he wasn’t quite sure what he should say.

"I’m not sure where it came from, it was wandering around the lab and wasn’t afraid to show itself. A few hours ago, she offered me a contract. I... decided not to turn it down right away, considering what you said about them."

I’ve been dealing with a lot of things lately... and the existence of spirits is also one of the things I’ve been dealing with, although it’s the one I spend almost the least amount of time on.

So sometimes I forget that they descended to Lunerra, that they count as a ’humanoid race’ like humans, elves now... And that’s because they haven’t put their weight down yet.

But a spirit offered Alex a contract offer, huh?

Did that happen in the game...? Even if it did, I don’t remember it.

"What’s their name?"

"Must, she says that she’s a spirit of mist."

Oh, a spirit that doesn’t belong to the primary elements?

A mist spirit named Must...

Hmm...

No, I don’t remember such a spirit in the game.

"I see..."

It’s... certainly an interesting development.

And as interesting as it is, it might come in handy.

"The spirits, if you’re good with them, are one of the greatest potential helpers on this planet, Alex. So, the choice is yours. You can accept the contract if you want, or you can reject it. You can be sure you’ll do more good than harm, though. Just study the terms of the contract."

Actually, I was thinking of finding the best spirit for everyone who worked for me and getting them to sign a contract in person. That was one of the steps I planned to take for the future.

But Alex spontaneously found someone.

It shouldn’t be too much of a problem, I guess. Natural contracts like that is more good than bad.

"Let’s talk about this in more detail during the meeting, after you make your choice."

"Understood..."

Well, the call ended after a few minutes.

I found myself staring at the wall.

"Spirits..."

The first important wave of what spirits existence actually means starts now, it seems.

It seems that contracts are actually starting to be made... and so the importance of ’spirits’ will start to be recognized in a genuine way.

And I’ll finally be able to use my position of ’representative of the spirits’ appropriately.
