I knew the silver milk powder would be a revolutionary product, after all with regular consumption of silver milk powder a genius who can contract a grimoire at 16 years of age to ascend as a Card apprentice could contract a grimoire by 13 -14years of age. As for people with average talent, they would for sure be able to contract a grimoire by 16-17years of age. There will no longer be late bloomer card apprentices in the world.

I also knew that patenting such a product will bring a lot of troubles my way. But I still decided to patent the silver milk powder because I had plans in place. But the person who I handed the task of patenting my findings screwed up big time.

When my patent would be made public many big families, clans, organisations including the government would rush to me for the rights to patent of course they would have alternative thoughts like Anna as well but in the end, they would have to give up on those thoughts as there were too many of them and only one pie, aka me. Yes, they would be too busy fighting their compet.i.tors to care about a golden ant like me. Even protect me so that the government couldn’t swallow the whole pie with my death.

When they were tired from fighting each other I would propose to divide the exclusive rights to my patent into 5 equal parts and auction it to the 5 highest bidders in exchange for a reasonable royalty. These 5 winning bidders would be too occupied dealing with those that lost and on alert towards their new allies for any potential backstabbing. Of course, I would have all 5 winning bidders sign a soul contract stating to give me protection.

This way I could make sure that these 5 bidders will not kill me to avoid giving me royalty and all 5 of them would have to protect me as they had a bigger shark to watch out for.

Upon my death, any patent and royalty I hold will belong to the estate but I have no family so it will go in the hands of the government who without a doubt would involve itself in the struggle of the 5 winning bidders.

If I had the strength to kill all the 5 winning bidders I could claim back the exclusive rights to the production and supply of silver milk powder but it was an impossible feat for me to achieve. But for the government, it was not an impossible feat so the 5 winning bidders would have to increase the royalty so that the government doesn’t kill them all. So the 5 winning bidders would have to give me sufficient protection to not fall prey to the government.

Currently, I had the same kind of deal with Anna and her demiG.o.d family but they did not seem to be worried about the government getting involved. Maybe because they form a part of the government themselves. To think Elliott brought me such big bait, which even the government would have a hard time swallowing.

Thankfully they seem to care about Anna a lot so they did not dare to totally abandon me for the fear of triggering the soul contract between me and Anna. They are protecting me from other organisations but at the same time they are trying to get rid of me without triggering the soul contract. Forming an odd form of system where I get my share of royalty and protection I demanded but also have to be on the lookout for a.s.sa.s.sination by my protectors.

“You want me to do nothing? This way I am bound to die sooner or later.” I yelled at Anna who explained to me my current situation and warned me from doing anything that would warrant her family into abandoning me.

“Who asked you to do nothing, I just asked you to not do stupid things which may get you killed faster. Think of a different way than involving outside forces like the government. For example, consider becoming my hubby. Not only will you get rid of the target on your back but also become the son-in-law of a demiG.o.d family. This way you gain a lot and lose nothing.” Anna patiently explained to me the benefits of marrying her in a soothing voice.

“Anna Heatsend, will you… will you stop talking nonsense or I will hang up the call” I have not fallen to the point of becoming a live-in son-in-law or the husband of the wh.o.r.e who conquered all the snakes of the south.

“My mother has been bugging me lately with all the marriage talk. What do you think would happen if I informed her that I had someone I like. Darling, you can resist all you want but I will make you mine.” Saying that Anna hung up on me.

‘Fuq you old hag, you want to eat my young and hard meat, I’d rather die again than own the lock which opens to all the keys in existence.’ I was frustrated, if I knew this would happen I would have just handed her the exclusive rights to the production and supply of silver milk powder. Yes, I was a transmigrator but my soul age was nowhere near 100 years of age.

…

Talking with Anna I did not notice that the students had come out for their lunch break. These students did not dare form a crowd to watch the show happening right in their schoolyard because the people involved were the members of the Bright Lions gang. So they just watched from far away. n.o.body bothered to report to a teacher instead they reported to the leaders or other members of the Bright Lion gang.

The sounds of Bert getting shaped had gotten soft so I looked at the 10 members I instructed to slap Bert and said, “If you guys dare to cut corners I will paralyze your whole body.” It seems slowly members of the Bright Lions gang were gathering, seeing them demotivated these people from administering my punishment on Bert. My threat did motivate them but they were not enthusiastic as before.

The number of Bright Lion members gathering increased from a bunch to a dozen. Pretty soon they crossed half a century and it did not take long for their numbers to increase into a complete century. They slowly surrounded me and the 11 crippled members of their gang. I did not know for what or whom they were waiting for. But for now, they did not seem to have any intention of interrupting my punishment.
