Hacking Flavors
The Arrival of Karina

A few days later, I adapted to the routine of working in the office. My dear I have a little problem there.

It's related to his appointment I became the head manager suddenly by Mark. Rumors surfaced in the office that I was using the back way so that I could get to my current position.

"Gue was curious, during this time Boss Mark was the most strict about choosing important positions in the company. Everything is always based on ability. But I rate, our new Kepman (head manager) is mediocre ability!" Said one of my subordinate officers.

I overheard that conversation about me when I was going to the pantry.

A long time ago, when I was alive as Erlan, I always took the time to go around in the office area. Demi could see and hear directly the situation that was happening among the lower level employees.

Taking the term used by the current president, I do regular blusukan twice every week.

And it turns out, from my blusukan this time, when I was about to make my own coffee in the pantry, I even heard a slanted conversation about my performance in this company.

Not wanting to spend any time, I just went straight into the pantry. My sudden appearance alone made the two servants inside shocked in fear when they saw me.

"Pmp..Mr Aro!?" One of the officers in the pantry.

Ah yeah. I'm using Aro's identity right now. There's no particular reason. Only in my opinion, maybe by becoming an Aro, I can go through my healing process after Laila's departure better.

Heard the name "Erlan" all too often, so it made me think of my old life as Erlan. And inevitably, I think back to my love, Laila.

Back to this moment. I felt a little compassion for the two officers in front of me. Especially when I realized that their faces paled when they saw me.

'Ahh..would I just go back? Kaishan once they. Well. although it is actually their fault also because it is very happy to rub others!' my comment without a sound.

I gave a brief nod and a friendly smile to the two men. I think that way they'll probably feel better.

Strangely enough, I missed. Because I found the faces of both even became more pale.

"uh? You why? If it hurts, take a day off first. Don't force yourself!" I'm trying to pay attention.

Unfortunately, the faces of the two are getting pias. One of them stammered, saying,

"Kk.we are perfectly healthy, sir! We'll work super hard! No need to take a day off, sir! Please don't fire us!!" Said one of the servants with a half-dead terrified expression.

Meanwhile, one more employee nodded his head many times. It was a sign that he agreed with his friend's words.

Replace me who was flabbergasted to see the behavior of both. I know now, what is the cause of both being such a drainage.

Especially when I see the reflection of Aro's face that I host his body in the glass hanging on the wall of the pantry room.

Aro's face can be said to be quite beautiful. It's just that, if his face is not decorated with a smile, then I will look quite sad when viewed by people.

"Ehem!" I tried to shake off the awkwardness created without me noticing.

"Ers... Well.it's up to you! Mm.. Then you better get back to work!" My words accidentally sounded sniffy.

Soon after, I regretted my tone earlier. Especially when I saw two of my employees were now competing with each other to get out of the pantry room immediately.

I know their goal of getting out of the pantry right now is the same. That both of them want to stay away from me, the boss who looks terrible in their sight.

"Hhh.I think I should start practicing smiling. This face is quite difficult for me as well in this world," I muttered monologously.

After making my own coffee, I went back to my study. For the rest of the day, I no longer heard whispers about the way I got into this company, from the mouths of my other employees.

Even so I know, with the incident in the pantry room earlier, it is likely that new rumors will form among my subordinate employees.

The opinion that I am a strong and authoritarian KepMan. I think that's what the employees in this company think of me.

***

Along the way, we talked about some of the problems that the company was facing.

I gave some input, and Mark was satisfied with my input.

Once in front of the house, replace Mark who took the initiative to open the gate. As soon as I finished putting Mark's car into the garage, we parted ways and returned to each of our rooms.

I cleaned myself with a shower. After the bath, the time has shown five o'clock past. I was just about to get dressed when I heard the sound of the house bell ringing over and over.

"uh? Who is the guest coming at this hour? Is that Mark's friend?" I murmured to ask.

I rushed to wear a bathrobe and then went out of the room to open the front door.

As soon as the door opened, my eyes immediately met the beautiful eyes of Karina. The woman looked stunned for a while. And after I followed her point of view, I knew that I was the cause of Karina suddenly becoming misbehaved.

Turns out I wasn't wearing my bathrobe right. So that the front of the bathrobe that I wear is slightly open and displays my sixpack chest.

"Er.."

Feeling awkward and embarrassed, I rushed to tidy up the front of my bathrobe so that my sixpack chest is neatly covered now.

To be honest, I was flattered that it turned out that my appearance had caught the attention of a woman as beautiful as Karina. But after I thought about it, I was embarrassed. Because I just remembered, that the body I was living in right now is not my real body. Except the body of Aro. A bodyguard from the World of Nevarest.

"Mh... Excuse me. I'm bothering you, aren't I? I see you seem to have just finished taking a bath" Karina murmured as she lowered her gaze.

"Err. Its okay. What's the Queen? Excuse me. I mean, Karina? What's up?" Ask me to be nervous.

"Mh.. "

"Who, Bang?"

Mark's voice suddenly sounded from behind. And made my attention to Karina become distracted. I also then looked.

And come up behind me, Mark who just finished his shower. I saw that he was wearing only short color pants and singlets. At that time he was wiping his hair that was still wet with a towel.

"Belgina, Mark!" answer me straightforwardly.

"?!!!"

Mark looked surprised. But then he looked to his body that was minimal muscle, as well as his appearance was minimal cloth. Mark went straight upstairs. Heading to his room again.

"ck.ck.ck.." I shook my head when I saw Mark's ridiculous behavior.

A moment later, Karina's voice came back.

"Mh.. Maybe you're as good as wearing clothes first? Let me just wait for you outside!" Karina said in a hurry.

He then hurriedly sat on the chair on the terrace of Mark's house. And I was late in hearing his words.

"Err. okay. Please hold on a second. I'll be right back!" Pamit me then.

Then I rushed back to my room to put on my clothes. I don't know what purpose Karina came to see me for. But I guess, the reason is something pretty important.
