Chapter 17: WHO ARE YOU?
"This is your ID and the Certificate from the forging association." A smart digital card was given to Lifeng.
Lifeng grabbed the card and scanned his thumb on it, all the data about Lifeng showed in the holographic screen that the card project.
'Hmmm, The technology is utterly astounding, there is no way the technology back on earth can rival it.' Lifeng thought as he put the card in his pocket.
"Now then Mr.Lifeng, The official procedure is over, can we have you accompany us for a talk, of course, we will serve you some delicious tea." Aven rang the bell, and a butler came from outside.
"Please serve us tea from my collection," Aven ordered him while the butler nodded and took his leave.
'Old geezer you didn't even let me spoke and ordered it on your own, Why bother asked in first place.' Lifeng gave him a negative remark in his mind.
"Excuse me for interrupting you, but There is something I want to ask. I passed the exam and got the certification but what place I got in it." Lifeng wanted to confirm his rank in the exam, the first condition to complete his mission was to get the first rank in all over the test and the second one was to become a primary forger or above. He did become an advance forger but what about his position, he was not sure.
"Oh, Are you talking about the reward, then you shouldn't have to worry. Although the test is still in progress, It's guaranteed that there will no one will perform better than you, so the first prize is also yours, but you have to wait until the exam finished." Just as Aven finished his words, the notification rang in Lifeng's mind.

Lifeng didn't have the time to check the unlock function before he heard Old man Daan's voice.
"Young man, There is a matter we want to discuss with you, we saw your whole process of forging, and we know that the technique you use or the foundation of your forging arts are exceptional and the talent of your to comprehend all that information in two months is mind-blowing. We also know that there is nothing we can teach you better than your teacher, but there is always something that requires time to learn, like gaining enough experience. In short, we want you to work with one of us as an assistant, of course, it's not like we want to hire you as a newbie but to join our workshop as a member of the same standing as elite members." Daans and the other two already discuss this matter in great detail, and each of them has the same thoughts that a genius like Lifeng will never be happy with something low so they offer him to work without any restrictions, the only thing in return, he has to join their workshop as a permanent member.
"So you guys want me to join your workshop as an elite member, but I don't think we have met before nor we have a close relationship for me to get this kind of benefits." Lifeng wasn't a fool to accept the offer without any thinking.
This time Aven spoke: " Young man you maybe didn't know that all workshops have a very fierce competition going between them and they will never let go an opportunity to rob in a talent like you."
"Let me frank with you. I'm the president of the stardust corporation with is one of the most high-level workshops for forging in the world. And for further info, the organization Miss Ruby Owned has a lower rank than mine. Old Man Daan spoke with a smirk on his face.
"You really are a shameless damn old man," Ruby spoke in fury.
"I Only stated the truth." He ignored her outrage.
"My Black Rose enterprise only a single rank lower than your and that all," Ruby spoke as she turned herself to face Lifeng. " Lifeng If you join the Black Rose enterprise There is no restriction on your work, and you only have to answer me in the whole company."
After listening to them, Lifeng fell in deep thought:
But something strange happened in his mind or sea of consciousness.
Lifeng was standing in a large conference room and was wearing formal clothes. But there was something more shocking that was Lifeng himself who was in the chibi figure.
"SYSTEM WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE." Lifeng cried out inwardly.
Before he could hear system reply, the conference room's door opened, and three small chibi figures entered the room.
These chibis looked same, the only difference was the number written on the back of their dress Like 2, 3, 4, but Lifeng didn't care about the symbols, The only emotion he was feeling after seeing the three other chibis was more shock because three of them have the same appearance of Lifeng, of course, in chibi form .
Just then the system voice rang.
[This is your new passive skill *Versatile Thinking*. The time flows ratio here is 1:3 and the other three people are your thoughts and emotions which help you make in hard decision making. Right now the skill is only at Level one but as the skill level up the time ratio and these helpers will increase.]
Lifeng wanted to ask about the chibi form, but one of the chibis spoke:
"Hello, I'm Lifeng number two, Please to meet ya."
"I'm Lifeng number three." another chibi also introduced himself.
"And I'm Lifeng number four." After hearing their introduction Lifeng face twitched.
These chibis walked towards the conference table and sat down.
"Presently, we have a serious matter to discuss, and that is which organization to choose." Chibi no. 2 spoke.
"I think we should choose 'Stardust' it has higher power than the Black Rose." No. three stated.
"You don't even know the exact power of these company, how can you say the stardust is extra powerful than Black Rose. I say we should proceed with Black Rose." No. four Spoke confidently.
"Damn you number 4 didn't you hear that his corporation have a higher rank than her's." Number 3 stamped his hand on the table.
"You also don't forget that she is granting higher privileges than that old man." Number 4 stood from his seat as walk towards number 3.
Lifeng was watching his copies debating and now was ready to fight. He asked the system:
"Are these my thoughts."
[Yes]
*SIGH* (Lifeng)
"Shut up you two." Number two spoke loudly.
Silence took place in the conference room.
"Aren't you forgetting something," Number said slowly.
"What." both number 3 and number 3 asked at the same time.
"Looks like both of you didn't notice." He smiled and spoke again.
"The Black Rose owner Miss Ruby is a beautiful lady." His smile got deeper.
"Hmmm, Now you mentioned her, She really has a good figure." Number four stated.
"HUH, Long legs, slim waist, and big bosom, why didn't I notice this before." Number three cried as he grabbed the hands of Number two.
"Brother you opened my eyes, or I have regretted my decision."
Number two just fixed his glasses and spoke:
"All well that ends well."
Watching all this Lifeng cried out:
"What the hell are you guys talking about. This discussion should be about which organization I'm going to join. Why are you talking about her figure? And from those glasses come from number two, I didn't remember you wearing them."
"System there is no way these are my thoughts."
[User these are your inner thoughts which you buried deep in your heart]. System spoke as It was enjoying all this drama.
"Lets vote to finalize the decision." Number two raised his hand and spoke:
"My vote for sexiness."
"My vote for happiness." Number four spoke.
Number four hesitated for a moment before voting:
"My vote goes to those twin peaks."
"What the hell are you guys voting without me and at least spoke in language human can understand," Lifeng spoke as loudly as he could.
"HUH"
Silence took over the room as the three copies stared at Lifeng.
After a moment silence number two break the ice:
"Who are you?" the other two chibi nodded at his words.
Lifeng: "..."
