Emilin was beaming.

She had finally finished her graph and finalized everything.

​​

All she had to do later was make some more calls, buy some more factories and employ some more people in the related professions.

Of course, all that was also the most tiring part after the flavor choosing.

Now that she thought about it, in hindsight, rather than finding the talents to take care of things after she handled all the hard stuff… she should be finding the people to do all the hard stuff as well.

That was a blunder on her part.

[Of course, if she said this to anyone else, they would surely cough out blood at the way Emilin was trying to industrialize business creating so that she could just think of something and have it done, but that’s not the main point either.]

Since she was going to come of age in a few more years and her brothers had already done so, many of her previous worries were no longer necessary.

They were already old enough to not have to worry about a lot of things nor explain some of the more bothersome stuff.

After all, she wasn’t a 6-year-old doing the work of a 60-year-old anymore.

Of course, ideally, she would be of age too, but the idea of having to do everything for herself in the next three years was tiring.

She had so many other things she wanted to do with this life of hers, so she couldn’t waste it all here right?

Not to mention, that last incident with the Platinum Privilege was embarrassing.

Wouldn’t life be a whole lot easier with people reading the Monday files for her?

It definitely had nothing to do with laziness.

Emilin looked at the unknowing Xander with the eyes of a predator.

‘Didn’t this guy have quite the amazing assistant? Hmm, I wonder how he did it,’ were her thoughts.

‘Xander seemed quite good at cultivating assistants?’

‘Or is it just Levi Stanley?’

It was really just Levi being a passionate weirdo but Emilin wouldn’t know that.

In fact, even the people who investigated him very carefully didn’t know that, after all, no matter how carefully one investigated, it was impossible to investigate one’s mind.

Well, it might have been different if Elijah himself or Maverick went to meet him, but that was not the case so those were just blank words.

But now, the only thought that Emilin had in her mind anymore was, ‘how do I get an assistant like Levi, who does all the work for me?’

Emilin nodded her head.

That did indeed seem like a good, worthwhile idea.

But it also seemed like quite a bit of work.

So, should she just leave this up to fate?

***

The thing about Levi was really no joke.

He was just short of being nicknamed Mr. Superman back at the International Medical Association.

As famous as Xander, the youngest department head was, Levi was just as famous.

Levi quite literally took care of all the annoying stuff for Xander, so much so that Emilin was a little jealous.

She wanted to have someone like that too!

All the times where Xander was studying and Levi wasn’t there making tea, coffee, or snacks, he was cleaning up Xander’s mess.

For example, right now, though Xander was still supposedly the department head in the International Medical Association, he wasn’t even there, having taken leave to “improve and brush up on his knowledge”.

Worse of all, if it weren’t for Levi, Xander may have found himself fired weeks ago as he had failed to inform and register for the necessary procedures.

A few weeks ago, the people under him were in chaos, but that wasn’t even the shadiest part.

The shadiest part was that those same people from his department as well as the deputy department head had adapted to the situation abnormally quickly.

It was as if to show that they had gotten used to this unreliable young department head of theirs.

If it were anyone else other than Xander, people may have believed that the department head had prepared everything beforehand for the people below him with how quickly they got things together.

If it weren’t for the fact that Xander was just too good at the main parts of his job, he would have long been fired a thousand times over.

And that was the biggest problem.

The people of the association couldn’t fire him, nor could anyone else.

Well, they could, but for the sake of the future of their reputation, they weren’t willing to.

Not only because of his connection to (Grand)Master M, but also because of his pure skills at the age of 25 that could rival that of a doctor double his age.

People had great hopes for Xander becoming a Master in the near future, many even betting on the age at which he would cross that threshold.

They weren’t willing to let another organization or hospital take the credit of nurturing such a talent, and since they had already nurtured him to this point, all they could do was endure.

Endure.

Endure.

And endure some more.

Surely after that much suffering, they wouldn’t be willing to be mocked for having their talent run away to some other medical organization when he reached new heights.

That would leave a great stain on their reputation, especially since Xander was still considered very young in this industry, meaning that he would have time to accomplish a lot more than others.

What else could they do really?

People his age were not even close to interning yet…

That was where Levi came in.

He made dealing with Xander 10000% more tolerable for the vast majority which was especially important accompanied by the fact that Xander probably wasn’t going to be leaving his position until the next time he gets promoted.

It had to be said, it wasn’t a godsend to Xander that he had an assistant like Levi, but rather a god sent to everyone else around him.

It wouldn’t have been too big of a deal if Xander lost his job, in fact, he would definitely think that the trade of his job for the opportunity to learn under his current teacher was 100% worth it.

But if that had really happened, everyone else, including the people who were stupidly vying for his job, those who believed themselves to be his rivals, those who used firing him as a means to coerce him, and his family… surely all of those people would be the ones to have their lifespans shortened due to frustration.

Not Xander himself.

It wasn’t just one or two people that could tell that he was pretty much doing all the work here and there, tieing up loose ends everywhere.

Honestly, with him constantly being by Xander’s side, it was hard not to tell.

It was something clear by comparison.

As for the people of the other medical organizations, Levi was many times seen as an eyesore for being way too competent.

If he wasn’t there, then Xander would surely have been fired at one point or another for either misplacing files, losing files, not seeing files, forgetting meeting times, not seeing meeting times, oversleeping and the list goes on and on.

Most of these are not really Xander’s fault as once he got concentrated on experimenting and training for surgeries, brushing up on theoretical and practiced methods, it is often that he gets too engaged to sleep, leading to most of the occurrences listed above.

But what happens, happens and not many outsiders care to know why it is.

And just like this trip, it wasn’t as if Xander was going to tell them.

This led to the unreliable impression he gave off.

It also didn’t help that after being spoiled by Levi, Xander didn’t try to recall most things outside of his job, just like that situation with the visas.

Either way, things worked out well, kind of, with the help of Levi, who was currently still in contact with the association dealing with the matters that Xander couldn’t bother with.

***

In some base hidden in the Hemafuji Mountain Range, another person was affected by Assistant Levi’s situation.

“Boss, it’s about Levi Stanley.”

The man who had just come out of the bathroom with nothing but a towel around his waist and another one ruffling his wet hair seemed displeased to be faced with these matters right after coming out of the bathroom, but he still nodded for his assistant to continue.

“The people who had been trailing him for the past month were commissioned from the outside, not our own people as they had found nothing in the past,” Liam started, but he was quickly interrupted by a grunt from Elijah, seemingly to tell him to stop beating around the bush.

Or at least, that’s what Liam’s guilty conscience was telling him.

Liam quickly corrected his way of speaking to a more concise manner, even though Elijah didn’t say it explicitly, with some cold sweat around his lower neck.

“We just found out that they had lost track of him almost a month back. It is suspected that they flew off on a helicopter but due to how late we got the news, it is no longer possible for us to trace back where their destination was.”

“Their?” Elijah questioned casually as he put on some comfortable clothes.

“Yes, it is suspected that Mr. Xander left with him, and ever since, they have been completely wiped off the radar,” Liam divulged.
