Once the heavy frosted glass doors closed behind them, the chaotic noise of the floor vanished completely. The CEO’s private office was incredibly spacious, elegantly furnished with plush, expensive leather sofas and a massive mahogany desk resting in the center.
The calming, fresh scent of jasmine and lavender filled the air, instantly lting away the lingering tension in Neo’s mind.
Neo walked toward the main desk and was about to take one of the visitor chairs, but Rose quickly stopped him.
"You are the Chairman, Neo. Please, take your rightful seat."
Neo smiled warmly and shook his head. "That is the seat of daily responsibility and absolute discipline. The person who keeps this company running is the only one worthy to sit there, Rose."
Rose was montarily stunned. She had never encountered a superior quite like him. In the cutthroat corporate world, a boss who genuinely respected and valued their subordinates to such a high degree was incredibly rare.
Left with no other choice, she walked around the desk and took her seat with practiced, elegant grace.
Settling comfortably onto one of the expensive sofas, Neo took a mont to observe her quietly.
Her raven black hair was tied back into a single ponytail, framing her delicate facial features. Her lips were painted a bold, deep red, and the sharp tailoring of her black business suit accentuated her flawless figure perfectly.
Coupled with her naturally mature and commanding temperant, she was the absolute picture of refined, professional beauty.
Feeling his intense gaze, a faint blush crept onto Rose’s cheeks. She quickly averted her eyes and cleared her throat to break the spell.
"Ahem, where exactly were you for the last two weeks? I had so many critical updates to share regarding the company’s exponential growth."
Neo instantly snapped back into focus, pulling his attention away from her captivating appearance.
"I had so urgent personal matters to attend to outside the city limits. You can say a little private training to test my limits. But let us focus on the present. Give the summary of our sales and profits over the last two weeks."
Rose sighed. She was clearly not entirely convinced by his excuse, but she was far too professional to pry further into her boss’s private life.
"If you insist, Chairman," Rose said, puffing her cheeks.
She then tapped a few buttons on the surface of her mahogany desk, projecting a massive, glowing holographic financial chart into the center of the room.
"The Aqua Core Flask has not just captured the market. It has completely shattered it."
She swiped her finger, highlighting a towering golden graph that spiked aggressively upward.
"In the first 14 days of our official launch, we have sold exactly 4.2 million units across Chronopolis and the neighboring regions. The demand from rcenary guilds and Wasteland explorers is simply unprecedented. After deducting all manufacturing, employee salaries, and logistics costs, our net profit currently sits at exactly 15 billion dollars."
Neo’s eyes went wide in genuine shock leaned. He had fully expected a comfortable return on his investnt, but this number was absolutely staggering.
For a young man who had recently been struggling, the sheer volu of that wealth was almost impossible to process.
"15 Billion? In just two weeks?"
"Yes. And that is only the beginning," Rose added with a brilliant smile, clearly enjoying his stunned reaction. "We have not even tapped into the global market yet. Furthermore, the preorders for the upcoming premium model have already crossed the 200 billion dollars threshold. At this rate, Sovereign Corporation will beco a top tier enterprise in Chronopolis before the end of the year."
Neo shook his head.
"A top tier enterprise in Chronopolis is just the baseline, Rose. My goals extend far beyond the borders of this city. I want complete domination of the global market. And eventually, our reach will extend far beyond this planet."
Rose blinked, completely captivated by the sheer scale of his confidence.
"Beyond the planet? Chairman, we need to secure the local sectors first before we think about..."
"We will secure everything," Neo interrupted smoothly, raising a hand. "If the Aqua Core Flask shattered the current market, our next lineup will completely rewrite the rules of the entire economy. I am going to develop new prototypes for you right now. Prepare the marketing teams and expand the manufacturing guilds. When I return, we are going to crush whatever competition remains into dust."
Before Rose could fully process the weight of his promise, Neo stood up from the plush leather sofa. He gave her one last reassuring smile and exited the executive suite, leaving the CEO staring at the closed doors with her heart racing in pure excitent.
Neo did not waste a single second. Leaving the Sovereign Corporation headquarters, he summoned a cargo pod from Ghost Ship.
Within an hour, he broke through the planetary barrier and entered the silent, freezing vacuum of orbit.
Waiting for him in the dark expanse of space was a massive, cloaked shadow.
It was the Ghost, his personal Titan Class ship.
The colossal interstellar vessel decloaked just enough to allow his entry through the primary airlock.
As the heavy blast doors sealed shut behind him, the sterile, high-tech lights of the interior flickered to life, welcoming its master.

Walking directly into the ship’s massive engineering and forge bay, Neo took a deep breath. He needed products that no earthly corporation could possibly comprehend, let alone replicate.
Reaching into his spatial ring, he took several rusted weapons he collected from the rn.
He also took out several magical treasures, including mana stones, energy cores, dark adamantite, Spirit Iron, and Titanium Blades.
After gathering these non magical and magical items, Neo thought hard as what kind of item should he forge.
Soon, his eyes lit up.
"That’s right, I can make that."

Surrounded by the quiet hum of the Titan Class ship, Neo closed his eyes and began the complex forging process.
