Getting A System In A Modern World

Kim didn't know what to make of the situation.

Master?!

She tried to understand what could possibly be going on, but she found it very difficult to wrap her head around everything.

"Silas, please, do you care to explain what's going on?" Kim asked as she looked at Silas intently.

Silas sighed when he saw that Kim was misunderstanding the whole situation, but he knew that she couldn't be blamed. Luna calling him master isn't something that he's against, as there's nothing more to it. But he also knew that it would be completely different if an outsider were to hear her call him that.

Silas knew how wild human's imaginations can be, and Kim wasn't going to be an exception to that. He looked at Luna, who was still standing beside him and gave her a glare.

"Why did you have to say it like that and create a misunderstanding?"

He had a feeling that Luna was being mischievous, and the smirk he saw on her face when he asked the question confirmed what he was feeling. He knew that there was no way that Luna would actually call him master out loud in public. Most especially in front of Kim.

He turned his head to look at Kim, who was still staring at him and waiting for an explanation. He knew that the only thing he could do right now was to clear up the misunderstanding that Luna created, but he doubted that Kim was going to believe anything he was going to say.

"Kim, this is Luna, my secretary." Silas said and waited for Kim's reaction.

"Your secretary?..." Kim asked as her eyes darted between Silas and Luna in suspicion.

"Yes, she's my secretary." Silas nodded his head in confirmation.

"So.. the two of you are not in that type of relationship?" Kim asked as she continued to look at the two of them.

"...." Silas was completely flabbergasted when he heard what Kim said.

Of course he understood what type of relationship Kim was talking about, but he found her thought to be very bizarre for her to come to such a conclusion. The truth is that women's thought is something that Silas can never understand.

Kim saw the look on Silas' face and understood that she might be wrong on her guess.

"It seems like I was wrong. I thought you guys are in that type of relationship. I mean, You're already at that age... and she also looks very young and very beautiful. Also, there's nothing wrong with a little office romance." Kim smiled, almost giggling.

"Hehehe. A boss and secretary romance. Just thinking about it makes me very excited."

"..." Silas now found the position swapped, as he was now the one who was getting confused by the whole situation.

'What the heck does she mean by a boss and secretary romance?'

Silas was about to try and salvage the whole situation when he heard Luna's shocking words.

You know what, boss? She is not wrong. A little office romance won't hurt, and I'm all up for it."

That was even shocking. What was shocking was what she said to him telepathically with a wink on her face.

"Besides, I can help with something more than just romance."

Silas has never felt so betrayed in his life. He knew that Luna was just teasing him, but it was still a betrayal to him.

"Can the two of you just stop it?" Silas asked as he gave Luna an intense glare before turning to look at Kim.

"There's no office romance going on between the two of us, and there won't be one in the future," Silas said, clearing up the already fermenting misunderstanding before it snowballs into something else.

Kim and Luna smiled when they saw Silas desperately trying to clear up the situation.

"You don't need to worry, Silas. I will support you all the way," Kim said and gave a wink.

"Ughh…." Silas shook his head, feeling very mentally exhausted.

"Don't take it too seriously, Silas. You came here to discuss your new business idea, right?" Kim said, changing the topic and giving Silas lifeline.

She had already understood what was going on, and there was no need to keep on pressing the situation any further.

Silas felt like he was just dragged out of a dark abyss when he heard Kim changing the topic. He turned to start discussing his business idea, but he didn't forget to give Luna an intense glare first.

"Just you wait." All he got in response was a smile.

He sighed and turned his attention to Kim and coughed lightly to clear his throat before he started explaining about his business idea.

A few minutes later, Silas was done explaining everything about his business idea to Kim, and she was now looking at him with a very peculiar expression.

"Wait a minute, let me just try to understand what you just said," she said and took a deep breath before letting out a lengthy exhale.

"If I'm correct, what you mean by what you just said is that you want to release a VR pod and VR game, and you also have the both of them ready?" Kim asked in confirmation, but seeing his nod gave her even more shock.

"Silas, wait, wait, wait. Just wait a minute! You mean that you have a VR pod? No, it's not just a VR pod but VR pods, and you want to release them into the market. Not just VR pods, but you also have a VR game that you also plan to release along with it. Going by your standard, I'm very sure that the game is a top-notch game."

Kim has been continuously shocked by Silas' words and actions, but this takes the top. She wanted to believe that what she heard was wrong, but with the familiar smile on his face, she knew that everything was as true as day.

"I'm glad that Kim understands me." Silas smiled when he saw Kim's expected reaction.

"Silas, it seems like you really don't understand the gravity of what you just said," Kim said and took in a deep breath and let it out.

"Actually I do," Silas said as he smiled.

"No, you don't! You're planning to release a fully functional VR pod and game into the market! Silas, this is currently beyond what the company can handle! We may have been having relatively smooth sailing since we started, but this... this is going to change everything as we know it.

It's going to attract the types of attention that are going to be disastrous for a small company like ours. Do you think the big tech companies are just going to let us have such a technology to ourselves? If the VR pod and game are as functional as you say they are, then we are in for a lot of trouble-filled future.

It's not just the tech corporations; every big company out there would want to take a bite out of us. And that's if the government hasn't gotten to us yet. The worst is that we are going to become direct competition for... Merta."

"Kim, you don't have to worry about anything. I already have plans in place. And about being a competition for that company that has a blue infinity sign as their logo, that's wrong. We are no one's competition. We only have ourselves to compete with." Silas said with a smirk.
