Chapter 55: The Hustle Begins

He needed to create a foothold somewhere in some way or the other, as for the event. There wasn't exactly much he could do about it as a tier one, so the best he could do for now was to get stronger.

Looking at the paper before him, David sighed. On it was a list of all the permissions and licences he needed to acquire before he could go ahead with mass producing the Nous phones.

"First, Nous isn't there some form of elixir or herbs i can mix to create drugs that can help me train faster?" David asked

[There are however, you are an Editor... you may be human but you aren't anymore, they wouldn't work on you]

"So basically this position is full of things i cant do... i enter the supernatural world and i cant enjoy it as well as others do" David complained before pulling up a holographic map of the country

[You can say that]

"Ah, anyway when i start building the Quantum repeaters and such, where do you think would be perfect places for it?" David asked as he immediately switched to work mode

[Highlighting the best and available locations] Nous replied as several parts of the map lit up. Looking at the various places that were marked, it looked as though the entire country had lit up so David immediately switched things to just Abuja only for now.

The company didnt have that sort of money as of yet. The good thing about this project was that he didnt need any license or government approval to start implementing all the necessary equipment.

All he needed to do was to buy the land, build and when all was complete, he could then apply for the licenses and all. Looking at the suitable and available places that Nous had mapped out, he sighed as he relaxed into his seat

"Okay then begin the processes to buy this places" David ordered, he could handle for the state but if he wanted to expand then the Nous phones and the multiplayer version of Renovatio would have to be very popular.

Meanwhile elsewhere, in an unfamiliar space, several thrones.... twelve to be exact could be seen placed in a circle.

On these thrones were eleven beings, all glowing with power and glory as they watched the man who stood at the centre of the circle.

"How did your meeting go?" The being at the fore seat asked

It was an elderly man that looked surprisingly fit for his age. Grey hair filled his head and beards but the muscles on his figure made him seem younger than he is.

"He was neutral as Lady Gaia had said"

"That should have been expected, his kind has always been known for their neutrality, our quest could only be said to be an insult to him" Zeus said as he sighed and sat up on his throne "May I suggest that we simply follow her initial advice" a female amongst them said

"To just support him, what do we have to gain from that, Olympus has no use for such a tier one" Zeus replied

"Even if he may not be of help power wise, Editors aren't exactly known for their individual power, they are known for their power in general, they are influential to a fault... our goal is to re-introduce ourselves to the world again, who can do that better than the Editor" The female said again.

"Athena is right, Olympus may be home to thousands of tier nines but we would never get anyone as influential or as strong as an Editor" Hera said supporting Athena's words

"May i speak?" another male voice was heard drawing the attention of the group

It was another elderly man, his head covered with Grey hair but unlike his brother, He was lean and looked his age.

"Go ahead brother" Zeus said

"Even if supporting the boy gains us nothing now and Olympus is filled with tier nine beings, the boy still remains a prodigy far beyond all of us... He went from a normal human to a tier one in just two earth months, even you brother, spent more than a century before you got to tier one" the man said in a calm tone

"I see your point but the Underworld doesn't need him and you know that" Zeus said while staring at his brother

"The oceans doesn't need him as well, for now let him be... As long as he shows no hostile intentions towards us, we are safe" Zeus continued

"Agreed" the others said in agreement.

....

Weeks later

In near empty house, a young man could be seen sitting and watching some TV. It had been weeks since the interview and he had yet to recieve any information from the company.

Due to the lack of information, Gabriel already though that he didn't pass the interview and rh job was offered to another person.

However calling all who went to he interview with him, they too confirmed that they had yet to recieve any information about it.

*knock knock*

"Who's there?" Gabriel asked as he stood up to open the door.

Opening the door, Gabriel saw an unfamiliar person standing outside. In the man's hand was a

large envelope.

"Are you Mr Gabriel Ogundepe?" The man asked

"Yes, what happened?" Gabriel replied confused by the interaction

"Nothing sir, I am just here to deliver this" the man said as he handed over the envelope

"Okay?" Gabriel answered as he collected it

"Please sign here" The man said handing over a document

Several seconds later, the man was on his way but Gabriel continued staring at the envolope

suspiciously.

"To Mr Gabriel Ogundepe, thank you for applying at Nous Industries, inside the envelope is your ID for identification as Nous Industries employee...yada yada, does that mean I got the job?" Gabriel read the letter on the body of the package

"I got the job!!" Gabriel shouted in joy as he danced around the sitting room.

The smile on his face never fading as he excitedly opened the envelope only for a device of some sort fall out
