ASHER POV

"Dad, I want to work at Mobile Mystic Forge (MMF)," I said to my father.

"Son, do you know how happy I am because of what you just said? There will be a new CEO in my company!" he said joyously.

"Dad, I won't enter your company as a CEO, I just want to be an employee," I replied.

"Why, and why would you want that? You're my child, why would I allow you to be just an employee!" he said, his brow furrowed in confusion.

"Dad, don't worry, I will become the CEO of MMF because I am your only child. I will enter MMF as an employee for a reason. Before I become the CEO, I want to know who is real and fake around me," I sarcastically said.

"Hmm, you're right, my child. You really inherited intelligence from me," he said with a smile.

RACHEL POV

I woke up because of my alarm clock and holy shit, "What time is it!!! Mom, why didn't you wake me up!" I exclaimed in a panic and quickly got up.

"Oh, you child, earlier you said to wake you up in 5 minutes, but your 5 minutes turned into 30, sigh," Mom shouted.

I hurriedly moved, fearing that I might be scolded by our Manager, who is so terrifying and fake!

THE COMPANY I WORK FOR (MMF)

"Good morning ma'am and sir," I greeted my colleagues as I passed by them.

"You're dead with Mr. Smith, you're late again," my friend teased.

"Oh, stop reminding him, behave!" I scolded.

"Yes, maybe he'll forget with the number of job applicants," she replied.

"Well, he's always busy and irritable, but in front of our boss, he's kind and generous."

"Hahaha, crazy, you'll hear from people he knows, you'll be fired on the spot."

ASHER POV

"What you need to submit now are Resume/Curriculum Vitae (CV), Application Form, Cover Letter, Transcript of Records (TOR), Certificates and Licenses, Valid IDs, References, Portfolio, Clearance Certificates," he said.

'So many things needed just to apply here?'

'But it's okay, I'm all set...'

I handed him the papers, all fake, everything that was written there was fake. He knows me as Aizen, the age, name, birth, everything was not real in what I gave.

A few minutes later...

'Tsk, so many questions, and I'll still get accepted anyway...'

"Hey Rachel, did you think you could escape my notice just because many are applying? If you're late again next time, I'll fire you," he said.

The woman he scolded approached and bowed, "I'm sorry, Mr. Smith, it won't happen again," she apologized.

"You should have fired her if she's always late..." I interjected, and the woman gave me a disapproving look.

"Shh, don't be like that, you're new, okay. Aizen, she's your senior, Rachel, just guide her on what to do," the manager said and left.

"I'll be in trouble later, hehe, it's my first time being called a senior," she muttered.

"Where are the tasks I need to do, Rachel?" I called her name instead of 'senior.'

"Hey, my position is higher than yours, call me 'senior!'" she retorted.

'Cute...'

"I won't," I sarcastically replied.

WHAT IS MOBILE MYSTIC FORGE OR MMF THIS COMPANY IS KNOWN AS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL COMPANY, THE GAMES IT CREATES ARE ALWAYS POPULAR BECAUSE EACH GAME NAME AND CHARACTER IS UNIQUE, ATTRACTING MANY PEOPLE TO PLAY IT.

RACHEL POV

"Do you understand what you're supposed to do?" I asked irritably.

He has been asking for help repeatedly since earlier, constantly repeating what he needs to do, but every time I asked if he knew what to do, his response was the same.

"I still don't understand..." he replied. I gave him a disapproving look.

"How many times do I have to repeat it?" I raised my voice, causing other employees to glance at us.

"You're shouting at me, where is our manager when I mentioned that the one teaching me is getting upset!" he hinted to the other employees.

"This is it! I won't shout anymore... I need to stay calm all the time because you're special," I said softly, trying to calm down.

AFTER 1 HOUR

"Do you understand now? I hope the next person in your position will understand before I lose my patience here," I complained.

"I still don't... it's difficult," he said, crossing his arms.

ASHER POV

I understood earlier but kept saying I didn't, and I could see the frustration in his eyes, even his teeth were grinding in annoyance.

'She looks cute when she's annoyed...'

She sighed and lightly slammed the table. I looked at her clenched fists.

"Do you want to hit me, hmm?" I teasingly said.

"Yes, since earlier," just as ahe was about to hit me, she suddenly pretended to straighten up. I noticed her looking in another direction, so I glanced there too.

'The manager...'

"Listen, all employees, whether you're ugly or handsome, attention! CEO Ashford will be here soon, so no one should mess up and act foolish. Do you understand!" he shouted.

"Tsk... he's going to act all nice again, pretending to be kind when the CEO is around, then when he's not, he'll be grumpy even if he's replaced, why do they pay attention..." Rachel whispered, but I heard it.

"You're making yourself look crazy talking to yourself," I whispered to her.

"Hey, zip your mouth, I'm your senior, you need to obey me!" she snapped.

"Why, are you afraid I'll report you?" I teased.

"Shhhh, you might be heard, his hearing is like a bat, tsk," she said, frowning.

FAST FORWARD

"Hello everyone, how is the company here?" Dad greeted.

His gaze landed on me, but I signaled for him not to look at me, which he immediately followed.

"Soon, I will introduce my only child and the sole heir of MMF. Manager, be kind to the newcomers," Dad said.

'What's with his look at me, im not weak!'

I continued to look at him, but I noticed Rachel was no longer beside me. 'Where is she?' I searched for her and saw her far away from me.

She was talking to another woman, engaging in conversation...'engaging in conversation? I haven't even told her that I understood her explanation earlier!'

I raised my hand while seated at my table. "CEO Ashford, don't the newcomers get taught?" I asked, even though I knew the answer.

"Yes, Asher-" I was surprised by what he said and so was he.

"Sir, it's wrong, his name is Aizen," the manager corrected.

"Yes, I know. Why are you asking that, Aizen?" he followed up with what I wanted to convey.

"I was left by the one who was teaching me, the CEO and Manager," I said, glancing at Rachel.

"Ah, you still don't get it?" she said, irritated.

"Yes..." I replied.

"I've told you over and over again, even a child would understand after it's repeated to them 20 times. Yet, you're the one who's hard to teach," she complained.

"Well, if I still don't understand, what can I do about it?" I said, crossing my arms.

Although she didn't say it, her actions revealed her annoyance as she approached me with a forced smile.

AFTER 23 MINUTES

"I still don't understand, it's difficult," I said, looking at her who was now visibly annoyed.

"Aizen, I've dedicated minutes, even hours, to teach you, yet you still don't grasp it. Are you suggesting you take ownership of my time?" I was taken aback by her statement.

"Pardon?"

"You've essentially claimed my work hours; perhaps you should compensate me for my time, similar to the salary structure here at MMF," she stated.

"Agreed..."

"What are you saying, you think you can afford just my daily wage, you won't be able to handle it, learn on your own there," she complained and was about to leave.

"I'll report you to the manager," I said, causing her to return to her seat.

"That's it! That's it!" he sat down and opened the folder again.

"It's like this *@€÷;#£×¥×,#¥×;#€÷;

*&@^%€÷¥@^;$£÷¥÷₩×&\=" she explained again.

I wasn't listening to her, just staring at her while teaching, it was enjoyable to watch her.

"Now, you try," she said. I adjusted my seat and did it. I was better than her. I just wanted to annoy her.

2 MINUTES LATER

"I'm done-" I stopped when I saw her bowing her head and falling asleep. I observed her.

MEANWHILE, OTHER EMPLOYEES

"Did you notice he was taught for an hour, but when he started doing it, he finished in 2 minutes?"

"Did you see how Aizen was staring at Racher?"

"Oh yes, maybe that's why Aizen couldn't understand Rachel's explanation, he was just staring at her."

"Oh, that's true, that's intense."

RACHEL'S POV

I woke up feeling like someone was watching me, and I saw Aizan staring at me.

I rubbed my eyes and asked, "Do you understand?"

"Not yet," he replied.

"Seriously? You still don't get it. It's really tough to teach you!" I said, feeling frustrated.

"Why is it so hard? I can't even scold you... Wait, how can you survive in this job if you're not quick to understand?" I wondered out loud.

"I don't know," he answered.

I gave him a disapproving look, picked up the paper I had asked him to fill out, and to my surprise, all his answers were correct!

"I thought you didn't understand, but why are all your responses almost right?" I exclaimed in disbelief.

"Well... I didn't actually answer those. I left them blank. Maybe it's a miracle that he answered them himself..." he suggested.

"Is that even possible? It shouldn't be, but it's a shame. I thought I could relax knowing you understood, but apparently not yet," I commented as I got up.

"I'll report you to the manager. Are you going to get me fired?" he quickly asked.

"I'm just going to get some coffee so I don't fall asleep. You're being overly dramatic, threatening to report me so soon," I said before leaving.

ASHER OR AIZEN'S POV

I waited for her, looking over the answers I had written, 'I seem to have done too well...'

"Oh, Rachel, be careful. It's hot. You might burn yourself," I heard, prompting me to quickly glance at the paper.

"Oh, is that so? Thanks," she said with a smile to his male companion, looking like she was getting excited.

The two of them approached, and I gave a stern look to the man who brought coffee to Rachel for an unknown reason.

"Why are you looking at me so angrily? Did I do something to upset you that's making you angry?" he asked, but I just gave him a sharp look.

"Nothing. Leave, you're bothering me. Hey Rachel teach me first until I understand," I said.

"Rachel, I'll leave now. Just check the chat I sent you later," he said and left.

"I didn't know you could be so rude. Well, I'll just get coffee. You're already planning to report me..." she said with a pout.

"Alright, I'll teach you again even though I'm getting annoyed with you repeatedly. Now, here's what you'll do, and then put the character's name here so it's more visible to the players later *@&#&÷¥₩!&#£#"

AFTER A FEW MINUTES

"Do you understand now?" a disinterested voice said.

"Are you losing interest in teaching me?" I asked.

"Anyone, if you keep teaching them repeatedly and they still don't understand, they'll surely lose interest..." she said, sighing.

'Oh my, I don't want to see that expression on his face...'

"Well....i understand now" I said, noticing her changed expression.

"At last, finally, you understand, Aizan!" he said joyfully, jumping with happiness. "Finally, he gets it!"

"Ms. Rachel, what's going on that you're jumping with joy there? Do you want to get fired, huh? Mr. Ashford said we'll soon meet the next CEO, so you should get rid of your trashy behavior!" the manager shouted.

"You're the trashy one here..." she muttered, and I grabbed his hair and stroked it.

The manager suddenly approached and removed my hand from Rachel, causing me to be annoyed.

"If you two are in a relationship, don't bring it here! What's more important to you, your love or work? Later, if our CEO sees you, I'll be scolded for your trashy behavior!" She shouted at Rachel, who was getting heated.

"I don't think the CEO will be angry if there's a relationship in the company. The CEO might get angry because there are too many fake people in the company, not Mr. Ashford," I sarcastically said.

"You arrogant newbie, why are you calling me fake?" he retorted.

"Well, yes..." I replied.

"So you want to tell on me to the CEO, haha, he won't believe you, especially as a newbie," he arrogantly said.

I smirked and gave him a stern look, "If Mr. Ashford tolerates letting an arrogant employee in, well, you might be surprised by the new CEO, you might suddenly be removed, don't be overconfident," I said with crossed arms.

"You arrogant kid-" he was interrupted when someone suddenly called him.

"Hey, Manager, Mr. Ashford is calling for you."

"I'll be there in a moment," he threatened before leaving, and I was surprised to see the employees here jumping with joy.

Rachel suddenly hugged me, and I couldn't explain the smile on her lips, she suddenly pinched my cheeks and said,

"You're amazing! You embarrassed the manager, you're really great, and because of that idol, I'll treat you later in the canteen, don't worry!" she said.

I gave a slight smile, "Alright, I'll be expecting that..." I replied.
