Capítulo 297: Reform Or... - Part 1
The next morning, surprisingly, there was another executive meeting.
The meeting was scheduled for 9 a.m., but half an hour before the scheduled meeting everyone arrived at the conference room, which was unusual.
Even Kim Jung-Mun, the Supreme Moon, and Wu Shitian, the Supreme Star, attended the meeting. They all arrived half an hour early.
Wu Shitian and Kim Jung-Mun sat next to Bai Xian Ming because they did not have a fixed seat in this meeting room. Kim Sunghyon stood behind Kim Jung-Mun, while Wu Shanxi stood behind Wu Shitian.
"What are you doing here, Sunghyon? Go back to your seat!" Kim Jung-Mun waved his hand at his youngest son.
"Yes!" Kim Sunghyon was someone in his mid-forties. However, he took good care of his body and looked like someone in his mid-thirties.
"Shanxi, go back to your seat as well!" With his eyes still closed, Wu Shitian ordered his nephew.
"Yes!" Wu Shanxi was an old man in his mid-fifties. He nodded his head respectfully and returned to his seat.
Thanks to the presence of the two Supreme Guardians, the meeting room was silent. The executives and hero instructors kept their mouths shut in their presence.
"Hmmm, I wonder why he called the meeting all of a sudden? He even asked us to come..." Kim Jung-Mun stroked his chin as he spoke. His words were, of course, directed at the two old men next to him.
"He" in his mouth was Heero. Heero was the one who initiated the meeting, which was why these people came earlier than usual.
Bai Xian Ming jumped slightly when he heard that. He was quite nervous inside because of what happened yesterday.
Why would he call those two old men as well? It's just a resignation, why is he doing it so grandly? Can you just resign quietly with a letter and save some face for me? Old Ming grumbled inwardly.
He thought the meeting was about his resignation from SES.
Or maybe...' Bai Xian Ming's eyes opened wide as he thought of something.
Just as his thoughts were running wild, a series of footsteps sounded. Since the door to the meeting room remained open, the people inside could hear the footsteps.
It was not just one person's footsteps, which meant that more than one person was coming into the meeting room. Everyone in the room turned toward the door.
Sure enough, three people entered the conference room. Heero and his two women, Kang Seo-Yeon and Bai Xin Yue. As everyone knew, the two women always helped Heero with his work. It was a common sight to see Kang Seo-Yeon and Bai Xin Yue following Heero. Kang Seo-Yeon was carrying a black briefcase in her right hand, which was quite unusual.
Bai Xian Ming looked at his smartwatch. The moment he looked at the time, it ticked from 8:59 to 9:00. Heero arrived on time as he had calculated all this.
"Tch! He makes us all wait half an hour..." The old man clicked his tongue and complained under his breath, even though he knew the schedule was 9:00.
Kim Jung-Mun just rolled his eyes at the old man's childish act, while Wu Shitian remained unmoved with his eyes closed.
Heero sat down and scanned the people at the table. At the same time, the attendant at the entrance closed the door.
"I am not good with words, so I will be direct with my words. I have called this meeting for two reasons!" Heero's calm voice echoed through the meeting room.
"First, it concerns the SES! I understand that you have all agreed to place the SES under the full authority of the League? Then, as stated in our agreement, I and the two Vice Chiefs will resign from SES! The League will have full authority over SES and these are our official resignations!"
Heero took three envelopes from his coat and put them on the table. He pressed the three letters with his index finger.
Swoosh!
The three letters flew off and stopped in front of the Chief Executive, Bai Xian Ming. The old man's expression crumpled and his mouth twitched at the sight of the three white envelopes.
He sighed and took the three envelopes. The old man looked up and saw his granddaughter giving him a sad look.
Hah... As long as you are not angry with me anymore, everything is fine! Old Ming thought as he looked at his granddaughter.
Then he turned to Heero, waiting for the second thing the young man wanted to talk about.
Not just him, everyone had their eyes on Heero. No one commented on the resignation because everyone had already accepted it.
"Secondly, it's about my secret technique. I will reveal my secret technique, a technique to collect and control internal energy!"
Boom!
Everyone in the room was shaken by these words. So far, no power had such a technique, only the old monsters like Kim Jung-Mun and Wu Shitian knew how to control and utilize internal energy. However, such a thing could not be taught, but now, Heero claimed that he had a technique to control the internal energy.
'I have to get this technique!' Everyone had the same thought as they exchanged glances. Only Kim Jung-Mun, Bai Xian Ming, and Wu Shitian remained calm. It was as if they already knew.
Even though they were facing such a great temptation, no one spoke. They waited for Heero to continue.
He wants something from us!
If not, why would Heero share the secret technique now? He could have shared it the moment he joined the Hero League, but he did not. That meant there was something he wanted in exchange for the secret technique.
"But I have a condition!"
Sure enough, Heero wanted something from them.
Kang Seo-Yeon stepped forward and put the briefcase on the table. She placed the briefcase in front of Heero.
Heero opened the briefcase and took out a stack of papers. With a little push of his index finger, he sent the proposal to everyone on the table. The proposal stopped in front of everyone.
"This is my condition! If you agree to my proposal, I will tell you my secret technique! I will give you twenty minutes to read my proposal!"
Wu Shitian opened his eyes at Heero's words. He looked at the table. The proposal was rather thin for a proposal.
But he was intrigued, wondering what this young man wanted from the Hero League. For someone like Heero who had everything, he was quite curious what he wanted.
Bai Xian Ming was the first to grasp the proposal as quickly as possible. The other Executives and Hero Instructors took the proposal as well.
As the executives read the proposal, the meeting room fell into a deep silence.
Interestingly, Kim Jung-Mun was the only one who did not have the proposal in his hand. He looked at Heero, who leaned back calmly in his chair. Their eyes met, Heero smiled and nodded in greeting to the elder.
Bam!
"What is the meaning of this, Chief Instructor!?" Hanzo Sojuro slammed the proposal down on the table as he questioned Heero.
Judging by his expression, Hanzo Sojuro was angry, his eyes almost red with rage. Everyone turned to Heero while Bai Xian Ming and Wu Shitian were busy reading the proposal. The two paid no attention to the commotion.
Heero remained calm under the eyes of these executives.
"You can't read? Then I will read it for you," Heero took the remaining proposal in his hand.
"You...!" Hanzo Sojuro pointed his finger at Heero as the veins on his side of his face popped, "Outrageous! This is absurd, there is no way I will agree to such a nonsense proposal!"
Once again, Hanzo Sojuro slammed the crumpled proposal in his hand on the table to show how angry he was.
Kang Seo-Yeon and Bai Xin Yue frowned at this sight. They showed how displeased they were with what the old man had done with the proposal and pointed their fingers at their husband.
Heero's hand stopped in the middle as he was about to open the proposal. He really wanted to read it aloud but stopped at Hanzo Sojuro's exaggerated action.
He put the proposal back and looked at Hanzo Sojuro, "If you don't agree, hmmm... It's okay, what about the others?"
Heero looked at the other leaders and the Hero Instructors.
Kang Myung-Chul was still reading the proposal in his hand while the other executives looked at each other.
The proposal was basically a complete reform of the Hero League. All heroes would be re-evaluated as to whether or not they deserved their class and rank.
A new system would also be implemented in this reform; a mission and hunting the dangerous beast would still contribute to the heroes' rank, but a hero would have to pass a test given by the Hero League for class promotion.
The new system in the proposal was undoubtedly a good system for the Hero League. However, the new system would also affect the interests of the major powers.
"Please calm down, Executive Hanzo! We can discuss it peacefully and negotiate the terms. Am I right, Chief Instructor Xing?" Moushe Eghian motioned for the old man to step back and smiled kindly at him.
'That's right, the condition can still be negotiated, but we, no, I can't miss such a technique!' Moushe Eghian thought.
Heero shook his head and replied calmly, "Please read the last page.
At Heero's words, the executives unconsciously opened the proposal right to the last page. There was one word printed on the last page, in bold and large letters.
[Non-Negotiable]
