First day at work
Terriella
:scowls:
To where?
Raymond
:chuckles:
To work ofcourse.
Raymond
:walks away:
I'll have lunch, don't worry.
One of the youngest chairmen and CEOs in the continent.
His younger sister, a university student hoping to become an actress.
Terriella
I don't get why he tries so hard sometimes.
Peter Murphy
If it's giving him a drive I guess it's fine.
Terriella
It's too much, though? It's as if he's working for someone else.
Peter Murphy
Meh. He'll be fine. Let's have breakfast.
Terriella wasn't worried about nothing, however. It was an unknown instinct to worry that she couldn't see her brother again for some reason.
Raymond
Bring me all the files related to this.
Brian
Please take a lunch break, sir...
Brian
:scurries away afraid:
Raymond
:sighs:
<These budgets keep going over and this feeling keeps distracting me...>
Raymond
<It's as if my owner is near, but I find him. >
Someone knocked his office door.
Brian
Sir, the new assistant is here.
A beautiful girl walked in. She had long hair and a professional poise.
Raymond
<What!? Why do I feel like this!?>
Penelope
My name is Penelope Hughes.
Raymond
Raymond Murphy. Take a look at my schedule for today and start the work from tomorrow.
He didn't seem affected on the surface at all, but inside, he was restraining himself from getting close to the lady.
Raymond
<What is this? I thought the emperor had given away my soul crystal?>
Princess Raven Van Mellanoha was reborn as Raymond Murphy.
Raymond remembered all the memories of his past life when he was six years old.
A child prodigy, he was perfect to the public eye.
A perfect son
A perfect brother
A perfect bachelor
Penelope
<I surely felt something.>
Penelope
<Maybe it was him? But he couldn't have controlled himself to such degree.>
The phone on her desk rings.
Penelope
:picks it up:
=Hello?=
Raymond
=Bring me a black coffee.=
:hangs up:
Penelope
:angered: :scoffs:
This jerk is definitely not him!
Raymond
:breathing hard:
What the hell?— Why did I call her?
Penelope knocked his office's door once and went in.
Raymond
:takes in a sharp breath:
Penelope
:places the coffee on his table:
Raymond
You have my soul don't you?
Penelope
:smirks:
I thought I was wrong because you were so rude. I guess we'll see each other often.
Raymond
Give it back to me.
Penelope
I have your soul, so how about your heart?
Raymond
A body with a broken soul doesn't have feelings.
Penelope
And? Do you think that temporary soul inside you can be replaced so easily?
Penelope
This world's only form of mana is impure.
Raymond
I don't care.
:stands up:
Raymond
:moves closer to her:
Relieve me of this pain.
