"Yes, it is," Ethan said, and Samuel moved quickly to finish up the arrangements for the meeting.

Ethan set out to get himself ready, a few quiet minutes to collect his thoughts before the clients arrived.

He couldn't help but wonder what the reward for this mission would be, given how much of an unexpected hassle it had turned out to be to complete.

He was still busy going through the reports submitted on his desk when Henry called in."Hello, sir," Henry said."Yes, Henry? What is it?" Ethan asked."Sir, it's about the Imperial Tower. Someone new has come forward wanting to get accommodated with a space in the building, and I need your authorization before we can move forward with them," Henry said."Someone else wants a spa

    "Really?" Ethan asked, surprised."Yes, boss, they just made contact not long ago, and they said they're eager to meet you in person. When can a meeting be scheduled?" Samuel said."Later today it will be fine, in the afternoon," Ethan said. "Just let me know when they're about to arrive.""Alright, boss," Samuel said, walking away, almost skipping in his step."That is good," Ethan said to himself. Depending on how the meeting went, he was sure he'd be able to keep both of them with the logistics company. From here on, apart from all the other clients he had already secured, there were still five more remaining that he hadn't gotten to yet.Ethan was just about to head to his office to look over some documents when he felt his phone beeping in his pocket.

    "What is this man saying, is he insane?""Ask for something less ridiculous. Who do you think you are?""Where's his worker ID? Is he even a customer? We don't even know who he is," Gladdy said, trying to stay cautious despite the confusion rippling through the room."Where's security?" Williams asked, already looking towards the door Larry came through.Right on cue, two security guards entered, eyes sweeping the room sharply left and right before locking onto their target."There he is," one of them said, closing in with a deep frown already set across his face."We're very sorry for letting him slip past us, Mr. Ethan. We'll handle him right now," the second one added."I just want to talk!" Larry said, shrinking further into himself, as if he could will his entire body into becoming a single dot on the floor."Wait," Ethan said, holding up a hand toward the two guards. "Let me hear what he came to say first. If it's nothing important, you can throw him right back out."Larry swall

    [Ding! Host has yet to reach the required client threshold to complete the mission.] [Warning: If the mission is not completed, the host will lose a lot of rage points.] [Days remaining: 15] "Like I said before, I know, and I can count," Ethan said. He never knew that getting the complete ten out of all of them was going to be so much harder than he had thought. Now, the countdown was beginning to feel more annoying to keep track of than it had ever been a relief, given that it was supposed to be a tracker of his progress, assuming everything had been going right. Ethan had just gone back outside while the cops were dealing with the cleanup and interrogation at the warehouse, but he did not want to be part of the investigation or operation. Instead, he wanted to see what he had already set in motion play out. "Brother, where to from here?" Jack asked. Ethan had already left the warehouse building, and now they were standing on the street, looking up at a large overhead board w

    "Yes, sir," the worker who had just come to relay the information said. He looked towards Ethan but quickly looked away, as if he would have gotten into trouble had he not done so."I went outside to get proper security so they could handle this man, but when I got there, I saw all of them lying on the floor, unconscious, and a man outside was still dealing with the few that were still around him," he said."So you brought an accomplice to do your evil, dirty deed, huh?" the man said. He couldn't help but get enraged."Delta Logistics must have hired some low life dog so they could sneak in here and do their dirty work. But from what I can see, you're the only one here, which means you didn't know about our numbers. So you made a brave mistake walking into this place, because now you are trapped. Regardless of security, all the workers here are more than enough power to deal with you!" the man said."I asked you a couple of questions earlier and you did not answer them. If it takes me
