The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 111 - Elin and Business
‘Ding dong!’
I heard the bell on my front door. Without waiting any longer, I immediately walked over to open it. But I already knew who was behind that door.
‘Klek!’
I opened my door too. Behind the door was a little girl with short black hair. No. gabe…. Her hair is a little longer now.
“Welcome, Elin.” I said to the girl.
“Thank you, I will trouble your family for a few days.” Reply Elin.
I immediately let Elin in. Both of my parents who were still enjoying their breakfast were shocked by Elin's presence.
Long story short, Elin also took breakfast with my family. He explained his presence back at my family home. The reason was to take care of the business that Rina had planned for me.
Hearing that, both my parents seemed very moved, even they seemed to start shedding tears and continuously praised Elin.
“I'm sorry my son is so lame yes, Elin!” Shouted my father while rubbing his eyes.
While Mother?
“Elin!!! Are you sure you want to marry my lousy son?!”
“Mother?! What are you saying?!” My screams cut out the nonsensical words from my mother.
Although Elin and I have been lovers for a long time, I am still not ready to marry her. At least I'm not ready if I still can't stand on my own two feet.
But ignoring my screams, Elin replied with a smile.
“Just calm Aunty. I'll take care of Eric if he keeps crummy like this going forward. I'm willing to be...”.
“Stop!!! Why do you all think I suck?!” I shouted in the middle of the dining table.
“Ara…. Then you want to take care of the construction of this apartment yourself, Eric? You still need to hire tax advisory services, take care of development licensing, then make contracts with workers and of course make..” Elin said at length after hearing my screams.
It ends with a simple sentence.
“If you can do it, of course I will be very happy with it!” Said Elin while embracing my arm.
“A-me…. I'm not sure if…. Uh…. Taxes…. What was?” I was confused to hear Elin's whole explanation just now.
“Ahahaha! Then don't protest if I call you suck yeah, sa-yang-ku.” Said Elin in a tone full of ridicule.

...16 June, 2073....
Elin and Rina continued to discuss the business plan that would be done. Rina plays a role as a planner and part of his economic calculations, while Elin acts as the executor on the field.
The two are unable to stand on their own. On the one hand, Rina was unable to realize her plan because she was still a minor and very lacking in experience.
While on the other hand, Elin who does not have a high education will not be able to make complex planning and calculations. However, armed with his extraordinary intelligence Elin can understand all of Rina's reasoning.
In simple words, the two of them are the embodiment of a perfect combination. They complement each other and support each other with their advantages.
While me?
I followed Elin wherever she went. Not without reason, but he wanted me to grow further as a businessman.
“You do not need to do anything, but as the owner of Grandia Apartment you must be present in all activities. At least until the inauguration of your Apartment is done, you must already have the charisma of a leader.” Obviously Elin while walking beside me.
Next to Elin were two women in their early 30s. They were both a small part of the Advisors or Advisors employed by Elin. Their job?
“None Elin. For today's agenda, then you should..”.
“None Elin. The whole worker is asking for help in terms of rental Drone builder and also..”.
All those high-level discussions took place every Elin walked from one place to another. By the time Elin had reached her destination, the two advisers immediately prepared the next issue for discussion.
While me? I was in charge of observing the performance of all of them and learning from it. You could say, studying directly in the field.
But honestly, it's hard enough for me to do because not only aren't smart but I don't condemn higher education either.
When I heard my reason….
“Aren't you still graduating high school, Eric? You should be smarter than me even dropping out of school. I never finished my High School.” Obviously Elin.
I want to deny that He is blessed with intelligence far beyond me. But considering He seems so busy, I just hold back my words and focus on learning.
At the construction site….
“Nona Elin! We need some extra heavy equipment and..”.
“Just write it on the list and give it to my advisor. Don't worry about funds because we will always be enough.” Reply Elin cut the words of the head of the building worker.
“Thank you very much! Miss Elin!” Reply to the man while lowering his head.
To be honest, the term “Building Workers” I understand seems to deviate very far from reality. How not, some of the workers in this project work by using very neat clothes!
Then, how do they work?
The answer is in this Control Room or control room.
“How is the development progress?” Elin asked as soon as she entered this very nice room. The entire wall is made of materials that can be installed or removed at any time. In addition, there are various monitors with holographic screens.
While in the middle of the room there are various screens that show videos of each corner of development. Everything can be observed very well through this room.
Then where are the workers? They were lying on an iron bed. Their heads are covered with a kind of tool shaped like a helmet and have a lot of wires. His entire body seemed to be connected with iron and wires coming from a large machine.
Yes, this is a means of controlling a Worker Droid or a worker robot. The workers of this building just need to lie on this device and control the robot remotely. A remarkable finding that significantly improves the safety and performance of building workers.
‘Ders.. Der.. Der.. Buzzzzztt!’
There was the sound of footsteps of one of the robots outside this room. I immediately went out to look at her out of curiosity.
The form of this worker robot is like a human with a height of about 2 meters. It's just that his entire body is made of Stainless Steel in the form of complicated skeletons. On top of all that, the body of this robot is covered by a thin layer of iron with white and orange shades.
In some parts of his body seemed to be emitting a fairly bright light. While on his waist there are a variety of equipment needed to work. This robotic hand is capable of being used as a weld that emits very hot flames with high concentration.
Not only that….
‘Wuuuooosssh!!!’
The robot can fly by using the thrusters on its back. I who saw this sight was a little surprised.
“It…. Not a war zone, right?”
Naturally, because the ability of each individual robot controlled by workers from the control room is very strong. Even I don't think 10 humans will be able to fight this robot! I don't know, I've never tried it.
“Hahaha! Take it easy, son! They are completely harmless to humans!” Shouted a man from behind my body.
“Uh…. Are you sure?” I asked with a little doubt.
“Of course! That's because all the operators in the control section are well certified! They won't go berserk as they please! What's more, the watchdogs could cut off the connection between the operator and the robot if the situation was a little urgent. So just relax.” Obviously the man with a wide smile.
I who heard it felt relieved. Naturally, because when I was in school, I often watched movies about the war between humans and robots.
“By the way, outsiders are not allowed to enter here. I'm sure the guards have closed the gate well from outsiders. How did you get in, son?” Asked the man with a face of astonishment.
I who heard it felt pierced in my heart. It's nothing, but….
“Uh…. Maybe you won't suspect it. But I am Eric, owner of this Grandia Apartment.”
