Chapter 46: System Warning!! [Hibernating the system]

The conference room became silent again, all the higher-ups present in the room were pushed into contemplation. Xin was only a high schooler. 'What would he do with the power to mobilize the JSDF troops, at will?' was the question in everyone's mind.

Some were staring at the table while the others were staring at Yamamoto. He was sitting at a distance from Xin thinking about whether to agree on his demand or not.

Seeing Yamamoto was taking his time to decide over the matter, Xin asked them to decide it as soon as possible and not to waste any of his time.

The demeanour shown by Xin was something that he had learned from his dad on earth, during important business deals. Xin was a last year high schooler in everyone's eyes, but for Yamamoto, he was a cunning businessman, who knows how to get the most out of something.

With a deep sigh, Yamamoto stood up and said, "Mr. Xin, nice to have you on board."

"The pleasure is mine," Xin replied with a smile and went near Yamamoto to shake hands.

Xin was one of the most precious talents of the country, and losing him would have been a huge loss for them, so after pondering over this topic for a while Yamamoto agreed to the demand proposed by Xin.

He added an extra clause in the contract which gave Xin the power to mobilize the JSDF's troops at will. But that was not the only thing mentioned there. For extra precautions, Yamamoto had added some extra terms and conditions on the uses of his power. Like he can't misuse it, he can't use it to bully innocent civilians. He can't use it to go against his own country or lead a civil war. Xin read the newly printed contract once again and signed up the contract, in which Xin was the Party B (Employee), Natsumi was the party A (Employer) and Yamamoto was the Party C (Witness).

After signing the contract, Natsumi took Xin and showed him the quarter allotted to him as a member and the vice head of the JSDF research division.

It was a 3 BHK quarter with furniture and supplied water connection. Excluding a bed and a dining table set, not much furniture was there. Xin was bewildered as he couldn't understand why they were allotting him a quarter in the JSDF HQ. According to the contract he can work from home or school then what's the use of a quarter for him.

Natsumi got the hint from his puzzled expression and explained to him the reason for allotting him a quarter. According to her, the research division may summon him on weekends, public holidays, or vacations. It would be inconvenient for him if he doesn't have a house of his own.

Xin understood it was one of the additional perks and gladly accepted the key from Natsumi.

Since the day was coming to an end, Xin decided to stay in his new quarter and spend some time there.

Slowly the night came to an end and a new day started at the HQ. The day before, Xin invited Aisen and Hiroshi to his new quarters and had a barbeque party with them, along with beers.

In the JSDF only high-ranking officers were allowed to access bears from the cafeteria, and that too twice in a month. The same was applicable for Xin too, but there was a catch. Xin was not someone from the JSDF HQ, his permanent den was his home (Outside of JSDF Campus) where he could buy as many as he wanted.

He redeemed his two chances to buy beer and bought a big set of 30 beers to go along with his barbecue party. On the surface, the occasion of the party was to celebrate for becoming the vice head, but the main motive behind it was something else.

He wanted to befriend Aisen and Hiroshi and make them his trustworthy companions. The Xin of the magical world was someone who couldn't judge people and as a result, used to get deceived by them. But the Xin of the earth who was a business tycoon along with a programming prodigy could easily read through the minds of the people, determining their characters.

Since the cadet used to crave good food and alcohol, Xin called both of them and had a party with them to strengthen their relation with them.

The next day Xin woke up early in the morning and was drinking some water to sober up when the system window popped up in his mind.

First Mission: Collect 10000 Red Pine

Time Remain: 4/7 Days

Fruits Collected: 0

Punishment: Losing a part of your memory

Reward: ???

"Sigh…. Daisy, can't you stop showing me this progress window every morning? I have a sharp memory, I can remember my progress pretty well."

"Can't do master. Currently, you don't have access to the administration window." Daisy replied in a very sweet voice, devoid of any emotions.

Xin was thinking the conversation was coming to an end since the system usually talks from her side, but this time something unexpected happened and Daisy started a topic from her side.

"Master, why don't you start collecting the fruits? According to my calculations, it will take you six to seven days just to collect a thousand fruits on your own."

Xin smirked at her question and questioned her back, instead of answering her question.

"Then if you know it would take me an entire week just to collect a thousand fruits, then why didn't you give me a month or two for completing the mission?"

Daisy "…"

She didn't have a reply to the question.

Xin was gonna add something else when another window popped up in his mind with a notification that the system was going into hibernation mode.

System warning!!

System Warning!!

Cause: Low level of magiculus particle on earth

Immediate Solution: Hibernating the system

Xin "…"

He wanted to tease the system for a while, but before he did, the system went into hibernation mode and ruined his chance to have some fun with her.
