The cup of tea in Davies\' hand immediately froze over as he looked at the culprit behind the unsavory comment. The room immediately went quiet as even though they did not hear what the culprit had said, it was obvious that Davies\' mood was soured, and he was currently looking at the likely culprit.

Davies put down the frozen teacup on the tray and stood up,

*STEP* *STEP*

His dress shoes echoed as he walked over to the guilty party and stopped right in front of him, looking at his face with a frosty smile. Davies could hear him gulp and sweat began to appear on his brows even though they were in a fully air-conditioned room, not to mention the cold from Davies\'s aura being released currently.

"What did you say…?" Davies asked him with iciness flowing from his voice.

"I apologize for my rudeness, Sir…" the employee blurted out shakily, shivering from being this close to Davies, whose aura was leaking slightly, due to his annoyed mood.

"... mhm mhm, I asked for what you said?" Davies repeats while shaking his head, as his smile went from frosty to wicked.

"I\'m sorry for what I said, please pardon my slip of tongue…" the employee said while looking down at the floor, not daring to look Davies in the eye. He wished he hadn\'t made the mistake of blurting out what was on in his mind due to losing the position he so dearly coveted, he hoped someone or something would intervene and that this matter would be put to rest, but no one was coming to his aid as firstly they were all still not clear on what he had done and secondly, no one was going to risk their neck to interfere in Davies\'s matters.

"...Slip of tongue?" Davies asked with his eyebrow raised,

"... Hey, I don\'t know if you know, but Imperium Technologies belongs to me and only me… hell, I founded it when I was just 9 years old… what was your dumbass doing at 9 years old other than being stupid, huh?"

"I have every damn right to pick whoever I want, for whatever position I want, in my company, and I don\'t expect someone that lives off me… to let his tongue slip," Davies said and turned to Hugo,

"I\'m disappointed in you, Hugo, for bringing in such trash and not being able to determine who is worth grooming for these important positions," Davies made his feelings clear on the matter as he turned back and returned to his seat.

"I need to make some time to check things around here, who knows what else you guys have messed up…" He rubbed his forehead as he sat in the chair.

"... But Mr. Lake…" Arnold tried to say,

"No excuses, Hugo. You have no excuses for slipping up and hiring trash!" Davies snapped.

"I\'ll be starting with the League… arrange for their next dive soon... I\'ll be coming along to personally inspect their value to my company,"

"Set up an appointment with the first squad for now,"

"Make it soon."

Arnold was going to try to protest/apologize but Davies didn\'t seem to be ready to listen to anything he had to say, so he turned and began to walk to the elevator, already bringing out his phone to begin making the necessary arrangements.

[Really?]

[We both know you\'re not as angry as you acted, so what brought this up,] Miya questioned.

\'Well, for one, I may have been gone a little too long and it seems that they are already used to not having my presence around… I can\'t have that,\'

\'I don\'t need idiots messing up my company,\'

\'And also, since I can\'t do anything to the protagonist until he at least gets his first fated opportunity, I can spend my time beating up monsters,\'

\'That way things wouldn\'t end up too boring.\'

[... So, because you were bored, you ended up going into a mock fury and threatening your employees?]

\'...\'

\'Why do you always do this…\' he asked while rubbing between his brows.

[well, I learned from the best… you] Miya replied smugly.

\'Normally, I\'d be flattered but not when I\'m the target of the roast,\' Davies shook his head slowly in exasperation.

[hahahaha]

\'Tch… whatever,\' Davies grumbled inwardly as he stood up and decided to get a move on. He used the elevator to go back to the ground floor again and as he stepped out, he saw Lee Jung pulling up with his car.

He was walking over to collect the key from the protagonist when,

"You think you\'re some big shot now, huh?" A loud voice that sounded quite familiar to Davies came from behind him.

Davies turned behind him to see a particularly annoying red-headed idiot. The idiot had blazing hair, a mildly handsome face, and was quite burly with a condescending smile on his face.

"If it isn\'t the one and only son of the Lake family head… To what do I owe this pleasure of your visit," Davies asks with a smile on his face, but with the heavy sarcasm dripping from his tone, it was obvious that he was less than pleased to see the new visitor.

"Why haven\'t you responded to the summons from the family?" Joshua Lake asked with a frown.

"...What summons?" Davies asks with a bewildered look on his face as if he had never heard the word "summons" ever in his life.

"You know damn well what I\'m talking about!" Joshua answered him, his tone rising.

"No, I don\'t… Daniel did I receive any summons from the Lake family…" Davies asked Daniel who stood a few meters behind him.

"Now that you mention it, sir… No, you didn\'t…"

"See?"

"But you do have an appointment to see the Lake family… but there isn\'t a fixed date for that yet," Daniel continued with a shrug.

"Oh… that…" Davies slapped his forehead lightly as if he made a blunder.

"Now you remember huh! Why haven\'t you answered the family yet!" Joshua said with an annoyed tone.

"..."

"You see… I\'ve been busy…"

"So, I ignored it," Davies said with a taunting, unapologetic smile.

"... You bastard!" The sound of Joshua grinding his teeth was suddenly covered up by the roar of flames as flames burst forth from his fists angrily.
