Out from the sky, the President came down in front of Sengon. The President showed himself to be a jester with little puppets being strung up by some strings.
"It's been a while, Sengon." The President greeted, causing for Sengon, who was giving off energy in masses, to raise his eyebrows. "I don't know who you are."
"Oh? Maybe this'll remind you." The President took off its mask, the face being a beautiful woman with lush golden hair. "Natasha?" Sengon seemed surprised.
"No, she's not like you. She's a spiritual soul." The President slipped the mask on again, and then pulled it away. The face was now different, it was a burly looking man.
"How about this face?" The deep voice rang out over the several different fights going on all around them.
"Are you... a transforming magician?" Sengon asked, the President's ability being one that he was ignorant to.
"No, no. I'm their sum. When you become apart of the Company, you lose all sense of yourself. Everyone under me is just a simple puppet, a doll with a face. Let me introduce myself again. I am the President of the Company, and I'll be your new boss." The President chuckled.
"You're an amalgamation." Sengon spoke, hitting right on the dot. "Technically, but the concept is a little bit different, but it doesn't matter. You'll be apart of me soon anyways. Or, I guess I meant to say that you'll be apart of my company soon." The President giggled, a female's voice coming from the jester.
"You're strong, so you can be a member of the board. Don't worry. You can still keep your ego, you'll just be an employee, like everyone else." The jester laughed yet again.
"I refuse." Sengon simply refused the President. "Don't think there's much of a choice. I'll show you just how powerful money is. Activate life insurance!" Suddenly, all the bodies that were sliced up by Sengon were brought back to life.
"Every company has 4 major insurances, isn't life insurance the most important?" The jester mused, causing for Sengon to grow a little nervous.
"This is the President's orders. Activate the Eight Pillars to maximum strength! Anyone who has a position higher than manager, activate fighting initiative!" The President ordered, causing for several high ranking members to surround Sengon.
Sengon didn't give them anytime to think though, advancing at supersonic speeds. Sengon grabbed one of the employee's throats, and squeezed on it. "It's strong... but I can break it!" Sengon planned on crushing the man's neck, but a few other employees held him back, while ones charged at him with full intent to take him out.
"I've gotta help him. Kenpachi, give him some space so Orihime can heal him!" Zen ordered his Shadow, who was happy to get into a fight.
Kenpachi jumped into the air and slashed some of the employees in half. "You again?" Sengon looked surprised as he got the chance to be freed, and took it. He shook off the employees around himself, and started to absolutely annihilate his enemies. He blew people away with punches, or sliced them in half with his bare hands.
"He's a master of the S Rank indeed. Too bad that doesn't matter. Fully activate pillars." The jester ordered. As soon as his order was fulfilled, Zen and Sengon felt major dampeners on their abilities.
"This is bad... Sengon isn't doing well, and these pillars are dampening our powers! Nix, I need you to at least topple one of those pillars whenever I say so, alright?" Zen knew that she'd listen to him, so he then turned his attention towards Shiyeon.
"If we jump in, do you think we could help out?" Zen asked, causing Shiyeon to shake her head.
"I don't think so. We're nowhere near the strength level to help him out. Or at least I'm not." Shiyeon told Zen, seeing that he was certainly more powerful than any other time they'd met.
"Didn't I tell you, they will only come back to life every time to kill them. They'll all be immortal until all the Company's resources all run out and I'm positive you won't be able to do it all by yourself!" The jester cackled, his employees raising from the dead again.
"This is getting dangerous..." Sengon swallowed, preparing to fight yet again. "The Company is one of the richest groups in the world, so just die and join us already!" The President ordered his men to attack, and Kenpachi couldn't get close enough to help.
Sengon was attacked from all angles, and a huge dust cloud billowed out. "Do you dare to think you can do anything to me?" Sengon's energy flared up.
"I've already checked how you fight. Your magic is unique, but it won't matter if you're dead." Sengon advanced towards the President, and suddenly stabbed his stand through the jester's head.
Sengon's energy exploded out and engulfed the President's body, transforming him into dust.
"Sengon is super strong!" Zen couldn't help but look in a small amount of awe. "You realize that you're not much weaker than him?" Shiyeon pointed out.
"Huh?" Zen raised his eye brows. "Your energy. It's almost on par with Sengon's. And I assume that you're not at full power yet? Yeah, you can do things like that." Shiyeon told Zen, causing him to widen his eyes.
"Then it's not power? It's experience?" Zen asked, gaining a very slight nod from Shiyeon. "I honestly think you could go out there right now and help, but I don't think you should risk it, not yet." Shiyeon didn't notice it, but she held this protective aura over Zen, just wanting him to stay safe.
Zen looked up, then saw the President's masked face on another body, reforming and grabbing Sengon by his leg.
"No way..." Sengon heaved. "Did you really think killing me will help you? Have you ever heard of a President of a company retiring and suddenly that entire company goes out of business?" The reformed body of the President grabbed Sengon and held him, disabling his movement.
"I really have to beat every guy here?" Sengon was struck in the stomach by a manager, causing him to cough up blood. "Against pure numbers, you are nothing but an insect!" The President cackled.
"I can't hold up much longer... I've used too much power. But... if I die..." Sengon suddenly grabbed the manager's hand and threw the President off of him.
"Some things are more important than dying. So please, let me use my life here." Sengon chanted, flying higher into the air. "Prohibited Act, The Black Sun." Sengon's energy morphed into something like a black hole, and started sucking everything into it.
"All of you... Die here with me." Sengon took deep breaths, his voice tired. "So this is your last ditch effort? My, this may be bad. My company may even be in the red. But you must remember, we are the Company." The jester couldn't be stressed any less, he was completely relaxed.
"These are orders from the President. Purchase this land. Purchase this sky. Purchase this space. This is the joy of the Company!" The President laughed obnoxiously loudly. "So, as owner of this place, I order you. Sky, land, place, and time, stop." Sengon was caught off guard as his skill was suddenly halted.
"I took your other attacks put of curiosity, and I'm happy to say you'll fit the part of the CEO. Now, fall." The President ordered, causing for Sengon to be forcefully pulled back down to the Earth.
"You really are strong. A normal person would've died from a fall like that. So now Sengon Hanzo, be welcomed into the position of the newest CEO of the Company." The jester ominously held a mask in his hand as he floated towards Sengon. He forced Sengon into the air with a movement of his hand.
"I think not! After all, I still have to ask for your help!" Zen jumped from behind the President.
"Dragon's Brutal Blow!" Zen yelled out as he blew the jester away due to the sheer force.
"Orihime, help Mr. Hanzo." Zen ordered, causing for Orihime to start working in an instant, bringing Sengon to prime condition in an instant, with the help of the Gamer ability.
"The Gamer, Zen Han. I said I wouldn't kill you due to the Harem King's say, but I think he'll be okay with you being a little hurt after this stunt." The President got back up, seeing that Orihime was healing Sengon.
"But that isn't all. Nix!" Zen called out. "Yes sir!" She replied before launching out a massively powerful arrow towards one of the pillars, causing it to topple and fall over.
"Ugh! Kill him!" The President ordered, only for Lolikiano and Horutipia to intercept and cast a spell of weakening on the murderous jester.
"We can't hold this for long!" Lolikiano yelled, causing Orihime to work faster. "Here Orihime!" Zen gave the healer a high grade mana crystal to increase her speed.
"It's breaking!" Lolikiano warned, and as the spell broke, a black darkness was cast over Zen.
He expected to have to fight the President in a one-on-one, but it didn't seem like he would need to.
"I feel better than I ever have before. I think the last time I could fight like this was over 10 years ago, so thank you." Sengon thanked Zen before the darkness and he disappeared in an instant, his fight with the President starting up again.
"I didn't expect the Company to be this strong..." Lolikiano groaned as Shiyeon supported her and Horutipia. They went over to Zen, who healed them both.
"Will he need help?" Zen asked, looking up to see the carnage Sengon was unleashing. "That man, is as strong as a devil. He won't need help." Lolikiano reassured Zen.
"However, you've been very helpful, so what do you want as a reward?" Lolikiano flirted. "Do you have any skills from Zhen Heilong?" Zen saw Lolikiano get visually surprised.
"I know where one of his disciples are, and she's been wanting to meet you." Lolikiano got closer to Zen, who was satisfied with those results.
"But here, for a reward for now." Lolikiano dropped down to her knees, and gave Zen a quick smooch.
"Huh." Zen wasn't embarrassed, just a little bit surprised.
[Another Harem member has been added!]
[Check skill for the list!]
[Appropriate quests will appear with each member!]
Zen raised his eyebrow, then realized it was just another way for the system to give him easy quests.
Sengon easily beat the President after his power-up, and he came down to the ground, meeting up with Zen.
"The Gamer, you've helped me and Senga an immense amount. I've also followed the teachings of the Shadow Monarch, but have not gotten as in them as you have. Is there any way for me to thank you?" Sengon asked. "Can you get me a skill book?" Zen asked, knowing that some are extremely expensive to come by.
"Yes, I will try my absolute hardest to get you a skill book, Zen Han." Sengon promised and then performed his last needed spell in order to help Senga.
He purified her soul, and that was the end of the huge fiasco. One by one, everyone left, leaving Zen.
A single moment of loneliness passed through him, before Nix, Baruka, and his many other Shadows came back to him.
"I guess I should just be doing more work! Next thing is meeting Winto Sung, and maybe even meeting one of Zhen Heilong's successors!" Zen thought, his face turning into a small smile.
"Yeah, I've still gotta lotta work to do. First thing, the Demon Castle."
