Chapter 12: Coincidences could be scary sometimes.

Stratos Company, Country of Maurusia, Xenovia D-Type Planet

Shi Fan walks toward a resplendent building towering many other buildings around it in his formal attire. The company is one of the top producers of Hyperspace Fuel which is very in demand today seeing it's needed for space exploration. He went first to the HR Department to file his resignation letter. To his surprise, no one was inside except for the old male janitor that was cleaning the desk.

"Old Ma can you please get me a letter of resignation will ya?" Shi Fan said respectfully to the janitor. The resignation process nowadays should be formally written along with the company's official resignation papers to avoid being thrown away due to the scale of the company. The janitor courteously smiled as he went inside the office to pick it up,

Old Ma then has him a Resignation form along with his resignation letter to be sent to the CEO. "Here, no one's still here most of them are in training. Only a few people are here to manage the affairs but they took a short break."

Shi Fan nodded as he was about to walk away he stopped in his tracks as he remembered something. "Company rules state that only secretaries from the Departments are allowed up there." He muttered to himself. But as he was left with no choice he walks outside the department as he was about to leave a voice came from behind.

"Oh? Shi Fan you're here? Hahaha, you still have the guts to go to work? What are you doing here in our department eh? Pleading for mercy?" A haughty voice came from behind.

Shi Fan looking back saw a slightly beautiful lady with some baby fats criticizing him. Sei Mo, she's the head of the HR Department and rumored to be the one of the current CEO'S mistress, the rumor is that because it has been just 2 years since she came to the company but she was already appointed as head of the HR despite the fact that she has no actual ability other than wearing heavy makeups and flirt at young interns. She was very even lazier in her old department and was often called into the CEO's office for no reason and come back very late. When everyone else 'respected' this young woman the only one who made her life felt like hell is obviously Shi Fan to the point he was always suspended for strange reasons.

"Oh ho? Hey, Old Sei can you pass my resignation letter up to the CEO's office?" Shi Fan casually said as if they're friends as he casually waved.

"And why do you think that I will do that for you huh? Are we that close? Go get some secretary up there to do it for you!" Sei Mo said angrily.

"But you have a secretary don't you?" Shi Fan smirked as he , "Come on old Sei just do this one for me."

"What old!, I'm still at the prime of my life," Sei Mo bitterly gritted her teeth, "Is my secretary not there!"

Shi Fan wondered where did he heard those words from before, he just smiled and said, "I think she's been called above?" While pointing one of his fingers above.

"Wha-what?! Why was I not given that notice!. You kid stop lying to me!" Sei Mo rebutted. "That's impossible I should have heard of this first," She then angrily stomped. This kid is handsome yet his words are very rotten to the core.

Shi Fan laughs inside his head "As expected. Jealousy at it's finest". Shi Fan knew that if the current CEO find's another girl to fling with she will lose her backer at the company. Despite the numerous rumors, only Shi Fan and Old Ma are those people who knew what is truly happening at the company.

"Then why don't you go check up on him?" Shi Fan as he looked upward, however, Sei Mo already began to walk towards the elevator.

"Hey! Old Sei! You forgot to bring my Resignation Letter!" Shi Fan laughed while walking not expecting the slight old lady to believe in what he said just now.

"Come! Give me that. You better not return to the company." Sei Mo angrily pulled the form as he just sent Shi Fan's words into her other ear holding the letters she pressed the buttons to the highest floor of the building.

The doors to the elevator finally closed and as Shi Fan was about to walk outside the building he was met with a group of girls coming from the outside. If Sei Mo was here she would obviously be shocked. After all, they are the HR Secretaries that she is looking for.

121st Floor, Stratos Company Building.

"The Elevator has arrived at the 121st Floor, doors will be standby. . ." a soft robotic voice came from the speakers.

Sei Mo angrily walked towards the CEO's office passing by the Secretary that was obviously asleep despite being in working hours. As she was about to enter a soft female voice came from the inside.

"Han Zimo. How dare you!" Sei Mo shouted at the top of her voice before entering the CEO's office after hearing that female voice.

Opening the door she can see that there was no one actually inside the office except for the female newscaster at the glass television. A chair near the desk turned around and a person calling someone came into sight Sei Mo can see that this was the man that he was looking for.

"What do you want Little Sei?. Why are you shouting so loud early in the morning?" Han Zimo's voice came from it. He put the glass phone he was using at his table. He is clearly not in a good mood after hearing what the caller was speaking to him. A man in his 50's can be seen he then put an expensive cigarette in his mouth.

"Where are my secretaries?" Sei Mo angrily asked.

"What have I got to do with your secretaries?" Han Zimo was bewildered at the question.

"That idiotic Shi Fan must have tricked me." Sei Mo complained.

"Shi Fan? Isn't that the young kid in the Securities Department who you were always angry with?" Han Zimo raised an eyebrow. "You could just fire that one you know," the HR Department has the power to do that without him needing to know, strange thing Little Sei still didn't fire him.

"Yeah that kid, here he's quitting." she handed out the resignation form Shi Fan has given.

"He's retiring? Why?" Han Zimo inquired further. His company is the best in terms of salary, to quit at such a young age.

"Don't know, don't care. Just accept this and be done with it, the look on his face says he couldn't wait any longer." Sei Mo casually talked to him as the other party just smiled.

"Yeah, ok then just send him a notice that we accepted it,." Han Zimo didn't care any further.

"Okay," Sei Mo smiled as she grabbed the papers.

Just as she was about to walk towards the door. The secretary outside came in.

"I'm sorry boss I was asleep just now." the secretary apologized profusely.

"Oh yeah, Little Sei. Fire this one and find me a new one," Han Zimo ordered Sei Mo while looking at her departing figure. Sei Mo just waved her hand indicating that she understood.

The secretary just slumped to the ground as he slowly left his office. Han Zimo picked up his phone again and called the person he is recently in touch with.

"Boss our men discovered the site. However, no remnants of the battle can be seen. And no suspicious individual is within the 500-meter radius around the mountains. It seems this guy teleported somewhere." the caller spoke respectfully.

"What is the nearest town?" Han Zimo inquired. "Good thing I sent a backup party in case our plan goes awry, what kind of stupid people did Juliard hired to provoke someone they shouldn't have.

"The Town of Shianyi sir." the caller respectfully replied.

"He's in there. Intel states his combat strength might be top of the game but his knowledge of the game is still young compared to us. He's in there and when you find him. You know what to do." Han Zimo ordered his subordinate. The hooded figure obviously hid the fact about the Semi-Legendary sword when reporting.

"Roger." the caller acknowledged and ended the call.

"How dare you interrupt our plans kid . You're still young to provoke us like this." Han Zimo spoke to himself as he blew another puff of his cigarrete.

Shi Fan which is walking by the street sneezed uncontrollably,he then apologized to the other people walking. "Is someone talking about me?"
