An Extra’s POV

Chapter 196

'A-ahh… I understand now'

As Rey looked at Rebal and Asher, both of them having eyes that pleaded for myth, he had a considerable grasp of the situation.

'They invested a lot of capital on producing the items, but they can't deliver it to the Elves in time.'

This meant they couldn't recoup the resources they poured into the production, which meant less liquid cash for them.

However, that wasn't all.

'In business, punctuality is key. If they don't keep their end of the bargain soon, it's possible that the Elves could go to another Company, which would be bad for business for the KariBlanc Group,'

Not only would they never recoup their profit, but it would take an extremely long time to dispose of the items in their stock.

Ultimately, this was the major issue that was ensuing.

"The Eastern Continent is quite a long distance away. Do you know why the Elves are interacting with humans now? Why are they seeking so many Enchanted Items in the first place?"

"They didn't tell us. But I suspect it's because the war with the Dragons has made them desperate."

The moment Rebal said this, Rey nodded in agreement,

That was his first guess too.

'Elves aren't technologically advanced and have no clue about industrialization. They are even often depicted as nature-loving entities who live apart from the corruption of beings like humans.'

To see that Elves were going as far as dealing with Rebal—-a Black Market leader—made him suspect that the difficulty had been cranked up in their domain,

"I suspect we are being intentionally sabotaged by the other three Obsidian Council members who joined Scylla's side. We've lost contact with the warehouse located in the East, and our packages delivered through any route outside the Southern Territories immediately become unaccounted for."

If this continued, their loss would be unbearable.

'They're in quite the pickle.' Rey thought to himself as he listened to Rebal go on.

'I can't say I blame them for being desperate. No matter how much capital a company has, profit is the lifeblood.'

And profit was gotten through sales.

Rey doubted the KariBlanc Group could make a lot of money just from exploiting the Southern territories.

A company whose scope of business was suddenly reduced to one-third of their usual commercial domain was bound to experience massive loss.
