CHAPTER 23
Four groups had to leave the position as they were forced by the other groups. The only remaining ones were- karma gang, demon sword gang, female boxers' gang-Bella, animal tamer's, the engineering gang, the maxwell gang, lumina gang, Celestia gang. The trio that he had the meeting with had decided to form a group and had targeted the Elderglow gang on the fact that Luke was angry against them. Luke did not mind as they had indeed offended him by staying alongside Meera. He did not think much about them but was sad for the arcane team. They were the ones who had the most funds as they were able to make money by writing novels, making screenplays and making storylines for games at this stage. When a group has no chance but to remove someone, they remove the fattest pig in the group. The other two were the weakest and the ones to be removed.
Luke smiled and entered the section where the arcane ones were there. He smiled and entered. The ones at the look-out looked at him respectfully and informed the leaders. He smiled and entered the room and sat down after calling the wolf. None of the chairs here was worthy of him and only his wolf was the best. It did not take much time for the leaders and their co-leaders to arrive. They sat there looking at him expectantly. Luke smiled and took a pen drive and connected to the desk. The graphical wall was activated and the different ideas was shown on the screen. Luke smile and said, "I want a whole series of ideas about this city being mythicized and spread through the world. They should not be able to associate it with this city but once told explicitly, they should understand that his city was similar to the city in the story. You have to make it into novels, light-novels, fanfictions, games and screenplays. How much do you need?"
Sophia the head was not so happy while Cooper and Miles were happy. Luke asked them, "You have lost the seat and is vulnerable. You need more power and there is no way to get it. There are some methods but you cannot take those actions. So what can you do before you are beaten down and all the values you have is extracted."
Cooper said, "We are different from others. We are self-sufficient without the city."
Luke said, "That is true but you will lose the chance to stand up tall. You three may be strong enough to stand alone without the support of the city but that is not true about the other members. They believe in the city and work hard to come here; they work hard to stay here and they work hard to become successful. Is there something that you can do to help them? The answer is no."
Sophia, "I will take care of them."
Luke said, "Would they want to be taken care by the city or by you? Your father may have some resources but it is not strong enough as this city. If you were really brave you should have opened something like a mercenary guild or let the isolated strong ones come to form an association and let them get your help. You are really a fool thinking that money is everything."
Miles asked, "Is not money everything?"
Lukes said, "This world does not have robots and hence people are also necessary."
Miles asked, "What do you really want?"
Luke said, "Follow my plan. I will give you a single energy bottle as a reward. The information about the energy bottle should have reached here by now, right?"
Sofia said, "The renumeration is more than enough. Is there anything else to ask?"
Luke said, "hope you can keep the thing. if the task is not completed, I will be having you three blacklisted from the entertainment industry."
Luke said and walked away. Sofia asked suddenly," What is the goal?"
Luke turned and said, "Five novels, fifteen fanfictions, three scripts and a game. Bring your connections and let it be released faster."
Sophia asked, "What about the funds?"
Luke said, "There are many rich ones who are about to die. Sell the bottle to someone and get the funds and divide among yourselves. If you do not complete it, you will have to return the tenfold."
Luke walked away. They were really fools and it was no reason that they were removed. They could not even take the opportunity in front of them and made me their enemy. They will be punished more severely once they lose. Let them suffer.
