The Author's POV

Chapter 468

[This is a godsent opportunity for us. With the mana density of the world rapidly increasing, our recruits will experience a faster rate of growth. Increasing the budget for rookie recruits should be our number one priority!]

[I disagree, I think we should approach this situation carefully. We still don't know anything about this phenomenon. In fact, I'm more worried about the dungeon overloads. If before there were no overloads due to the thin mana in the atmosphere, what about now that the density has increased? Our current priority is investing in the defensive budget.]

[I agree with this suggestion. If a dungeon overload truly happened, and the monsters don't die instantly, the consequences will be too much for us to handle. It's already bad enough that the guild leader isn't here, if something like this happened, scuse my words, we're fucked.]

[No, no, no you're wrong. This conservative thinking is wrong! We need to grasp the opportunity now! Train the youngsters for the future. We can use them to handle the dungeon overloads. It's a win-win situation! You guys are being too narrow minded!]

"Sigh."

Listening to the conversations happening in front of her, Amanda let out a long sigh.

Leaning back on her black chair as she gazed at the holographic projection in front of her.

At the moment the elders of the guild were discussing the measures the guild should take in response to the sudden increase in mana density.

This discussion had been taking place ever since the morning, and since then, there had been zero progress.

Zero.

Whenever an elder presented an approach, another one would quickly interject, and an argument would start.

This had persisted throughout the whole morning and had now become an endless cycle that tired Amanda to no end.

Really tired.

That being said, although she was only present out of formality, she did express her input from time to time, but the elders were simply too stubborn with their opinions.

They wouldn't listen to each other, let alone her.

[That doesn't work. The time it will take to train those recruits will be two to three years, can you guarantee that nothing will happen then?]

[Neither option is good. We should currently be focusing our strength on the production of magic cards. Once that hits, all those problems will no longer be a problem!]

"Haa..."

Letting out another sigh, Amanda raised her head and stared at the ceiling.

'I want to go home.'

She muttered inside of her mind.

Clank—!

Out of nowhere, the door suddenly burst open and an enraged Ren entered the room.

"This is bullshit, Amanda!"

Already expecting such a scene, pressing a blue button next to her, Amanda turned off the speaker of the call.

Lowering her head, she asked.

"What's wrong?"

Actually, she was merely pretending at the moment.

She knew exactly why he was angry.

"What do you mean, what's wrong?!"

Grabbing the guest chair and pulling it back, Ren exaggeratively sat down.

Leaning forward and pressing his finger on the table, he angrily spat.

"Mr. Han Yufei? Han Yufei?!"

"You came here for him too?"

Ren's finger paused.

"...Came for him too?"

"Mhm."

Amanda nodded her head with a stoic look.

"My secretary informed me not too long ago that he's coming. Should be here at any minute now."

"Bullshit!"

Standing up, Ren angrily smacked his hand on the table.

Pointing at himself, he spat.

"That was me!"

A frown emerged on Amanda's face.

"...Why would you be Han Yufei?"

Ren's mouth twitched. Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he sat back down on the chair.
