After watching the news, a cunning smile appeared on Henri Montmorency's lips. This is the opportunity he's been waiting for!
Of course, he can't confront Daniel Emberweave directly—that would be suicide. But scheming behind his back, applying some pressure, and seeing if Daniel slips up? That's a safe bet.
"Pierre, arrange for someone to sway public opinion. I want them to be more afraid of New Atlantis technology. The budget is 100 million USD. I want them to fear New Atlantis, Astral Corp, and Daniel Emberweave. It would be magnificent if they saw Daniel Emberweave's technological empire as the second coming of the Nazis," Henri ordered his butler.
"It will be arranged as best as possible within the assigned budget, Lord Montmorency," the butler replied, bowing politely before excusing himself from the room, receiving a satisfied nod from his master.
