Transmigrated as side character, I will steal all the heroines-Chapter 40: Negotiation

- Author notes -

Hi everyone, Rysangel here.

Finally, we have reached chapter 40. I am really grateful to everyone who has read and supported this story up to this point.

I really wanted to quickly continue the story, but sadly I need to request a 2 or 3 days break for this story.

I would like to use the 2- 3 days break to correct most of the grammatical errors in the previous part and do some editing for chapters 1-40.

Another thing to do is I would post some polls in those periods regarding some aspect of this story, like whether you like it to be R-18 and etc.

Once again, I say thank you to everyone, and please enjoy the story.

* Silence*

With the fall of Ray's words, The atmosphere in the office suddenly turned silent.

A young man no more than 20 years old could easily alter her appointment log, combined with the fact that he has brought up the information about her long-lost son.

All those facts added together making Kyouko's mind into chaos.

In fact, Kyouko was also a strong Daoist before, however, due to the loss of Gugiga and her opponent attack, she could no longer utilize her maximum power as a Daoist.

If the boy before her had some malicious intent, she doesn't know whether she could stop him.

" I don't know where Mr. Daoist has gotten information about my long-lost son. However, Mr. Daoist wasn't the first one to bring this up with me, and all those information until now were fakes."

Kyouko said with a frown. Her multi-billionaire company couldn't find any information about his son, so how could this boy appear out of nowhere saying that he has the information.

Even if he was a strong Daoist, a Daoist was nowhere omnipotent and normally they would have no care in worldly matters like this.

" Since Ms. Kyouko didn't believe me, then I could only leave. Though, if you could feel the presence of spirit beast in me. You should also be able to find a trace of another spirit beast lingering around me."

Ray shrugged his hands and acted like he didn't care. He had laid out the bait, now he only needs the fish to strike it out.

Hearing Ray's words, Kyouko didn't instantly try to feel the spirit beasts trace around him but noticing that Ray didn't exactly have any malicious thought, Kyouko chooses to believe him this time.

" This feeling…"

Kyouko's face frowned more when he noticed the similar traces around Ray's body.

' Gotcha.'

Noticing that Kyouko should have taken the bait, Ray acted like he was going to leave the office. Kyouko has leaped into the trap, now it's time for him to increase the leverage.

" Wait!!!!"

Kyouko hurriedly ran into Ray and held his arm.

" Mr. Ray, the spirit beats trace on your body…"

" It's Gugiga, the one that was sealed in you, I had some contact with him a few weeks ago."

Kyouko nodded and didn't refute Ray's words. She could feel the trace was really weak and it should have been some time since the last time he met Gugiga.

In reality, all of this was a part of Ray and Aina's scheme. If the trace had shown that they met today, Kyouko could use his connection to find Skye's location, and Ray will lose all the benefits.

" Mr. Ray, Kyouko apologized for her impolite behavior before. The company situation was a bit hectic lately, so Kyouko's temper hasn't been good lately. If Mr. Ray wouldn't mind, Kyouko would invite Mr. Ray into a drink."

Ray didn't reject Kyouko's information. He followed Kyouko and took a sit in the office.

…

" Mr. Ray, about my son…"

" Ms. Kyouko, please calm down a bit."

Kyouko wasn't able to finish her words because of Ray's interruption.

" Ms. Kyouko, it's not that I didn't want to give Ms. Kyouko the information. But I need Ms. Kyouko to show some sincerity to me."

" Mr. Ray, I will do everything I could to gain this information, please Mr. Ray just tells me the condition."

She was finally given some hope in searching for her long-lost son, it was no wonder she was so excited and didn't think much about Ray's condition.

" Hehe, really? It's not about the condition, I was more concerned that Ms. Kyouko didn't seem to take me seriously. From the first time I step into this office, I felt that Ms. Kyouko didn't take me seriously."

Ray smiled while drinking the tea Kyouko served to him.

It was a simple word from Ray, but that simple word was like a nightmare to Kyouko. She was indeed didn't take Ray seriously at first, and now she couldn't refute any of ray's words.

" Mr. Ray, I…"

" Ms. Kyouko, please."

Ray didn't give Kyouko any chance to finish her sentence. In a negotiation like this, it was very important to keep the dominant position, especially if you wish to control the other side.

" It was starting to get boring Ms. Kyouko. I could guess that Ms. Kyouko wanted to apologize and offer me some remuneration. But, do you think a Daoist like me needs any of your remunerations?"

*Critical Hit*

" Your company might be a strong and wealthy industry, but to a supreme Daoist, any of their family could easily destroy your company with a single sentence."

*Double Kill*

" Even if you gather all your company's asset and give it to me, it couldn't offset the fact that you have disrespect a supreme Daoist like me."

*Triple Kill*

" It seems it will be easier to give you my warning if I have teared up one of your son's limbs and brought it here."

*Quadra Kill*

Ray was about to give his finishing blow and complete his combo with a Penta kill, however, it seems all the combo was too much for the weak woman in front of him.

Kyouko's eyes were red in she couldn't hide her full of fear face. The charismatic lady boss was gone, and now she was only a weak woman who wanted to find her long-lost child.

Kyouko stood up from the chair and went in ray's direction. She stopped right in front of Ray and suddenly bend her knees to kneel down.

" Mr. Ray, I know Kyouko has made a grave mistake for offending Mr. Ray. Kyouko can't say that she deserves Mr. Ray's forgiveness. But Kyouko begs Mr. ray to let go of my son. Kyouko will give Kyouko's everything, even this unworthy and dirty body to serve Mr. Ray if Mr. Ray had wished to do so."

Kyouko felt that she has fallen to the depth of hell. Because of her underestimating Ray, she had lost her hope to met with her child, even more, her child now was in a dangerous situation because of her.

To a mother, there was no worse situation than making her child's life in danger because of her. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

She was ready to throw her everything to Ray, or even doing a suicide attack if Ray still won't forgive her and tried to harm her child. Then suddenly, she felt a warm hand touching her chin.

The warm hand held her chin and force her to look towards Ray.

" Ms. Kyouko, I don't want any of your assets. All I want is you."
