The ‘stealing’ accusation gradually spread to other forums and became a hot topic. It even started appearing in unrelated gaming forums. Gossip accounts and information in Oakville began highlighting the issue. Kalix didn’t show frustration, influencing his colleagues. Instead of dwelling on the problem, they focused on other improvements. Meanwhile, Kalix brought Tommy to discuss the matter after leaving him for a day. “What’s your take on this issue?” Kalix asked, not looking at Tommy but tinkering with his laptop. Tommy sighed and answered, “I suspect the ones making those hammer statements are my former colleagues.” “Yes, indeed,” Kalix said calmly, as if mentioning his breakfast menu. Having worked with Kalix for over a month, Tommy understood the young man’s demeanor. Despite his youthful age and handsome, seemingly pampered face, he was firm. In decision-making and planning, everything was done decisively and accurately. That’s why Tommy slowly let go of his reservations
State-of-the-Art has officially moved to a new, larger, and more comfortable building. The shop they now occupy has 5 floors, surrounded by small companies from various fields. The environment is comfortable and, certainly, secure due to strict surveillance by security guards before entering the shop area. Kalix has also considered recruiting some security guards specifically for the company. Tommy knocks on Kalix’s office door, and upon receiving the command to enter, he finally opens the door and steps in. “Boss, this is the list of job applicants who have passed for tomorrow’s interview.” Tommy places several job applicant documents, including CVs and necessary materials. Kalix takes the stack of documents and quickly checks, asking, “What time does the interview start?” “Around 10 am, Boss,” Tommy confidently replies. “Okay, I will personally participate in the interview.” After that, Tommy leaves. Kalix flips through the documents and glances . He stops at a name that he
Kalix and Nick are not hiding their intention to create a large-scale game in the near future. All employees were even told not to hesitate to propose their ideas if they have any.Not many submitted files containing game ideas they wanted to create. Kalix read and examined them one by one. He was very serious and focused on finding the strengths and weaknesses of each concept submitted by his employees."I've chosen two that seem decent to me, check them out yourself." Kalix handed two files to Nick, who entered his room as usual.Lazily taking those files, Nick complained, "I came here to relax and be alone, not to work.""Heh," smirked Kalix. "Don't think my room is more relaxed.""I know. Your room actually has more pressure, but it's better here."Kalix glanced at him with a questioning look. As the lead game developer, Nick also had his own room according to his preference. Because his mind was more active when he was alone and not disturbed by anyone.So, when Nick said Kalix's
As in the life before, they aimed for 1 million. Kalix roughly glanced at it, then added an additional 1 million at the bottom of the form. Two million would be enough for them to develop the game for the next 6 months.When he handed it to Sia, he requested, "Ask the R&D department to send a form about the game, including the code."Sia nodded.A few minutes later, Eve sent up a USB, then hesitated, clearly wanting to say something.Kalix inserted the USB into the computer, opened the game's source code, and began modifying it. He adjusted the modified code to be concealed, covering it with the original code. Even if a top-tier hacker got in, they might not be able to find it.Due to Kalix's current expertise being considered top-notch, not just because he had a soul from the future, but also because he had a system that would always assist him.It took 10 minutes to handle all of this, then Kalix calmly looked towards Eve, who was still standing hesitantly. Kalix knew that Eve wante
Without further investigating Snyder, Kalix no longer glanced at him. So why, if Snyder knew something? As long as it didn’t pose a problem for him or hinder his path, Kalix wouldn’t care.They talked a bit more before parting ways. Kalix returned to his room and sent the same message to Sia.[You and Dion will meet with SNY representatives to sign the investment agreement.]The woman’s response came shortly after.[Alright! Boss, aren’t you going to meet the SNY representative?][No. You just need to represent me in signing it, I’ve already negotiated with SNY. I have to leave this afternoon.]Sia replied with approval. Kalix threw his phone onto the bed and changed his clothes. He intentionally brought Dion and Sia because he had another meeting.After 30 minutes of choosing his outfit, Kalix picked up his phone again and saw a new message. The corners of his lips unconsciously curved upwards.He replied promptly.[I’ll pick you up. Wait there.]Staring at himself in the mirror, Kal
Kalix spent some money to free Dion and brought him back to the hotel. However, he showed no concern for Carlos, not even acknowledging him, let alone asking Dion to apologize.No words were exchanged throughout the journey, they didn’t even exchange glances. Kalix wasn’t angry, he simply felt reluctant to discuss it there, especially with Sia still around.Upon entering the hotel area, Kalix instructed the two following him like ducklings, “Sia, go back to your room, and Dion, come with me.”Though the two had different moods, they simultaneously replied, “Sure, boss.”Kalix entered his room, which had a separate living area from the bedroom.“Sit.” Kalix commanded, taking a seat himself.After Dion sat comfortably, Kalix began to ask questions.“Do you know that person? What’s your issue with him?”Kalix didn’t directly ask Dion ‘who’ it was, indirectly implying that Dion knew the person. Dion wasn’t foolish, he could distinguish Kalix’s words. However, he refused to say more.“An o
On the next workday, Nick entered Kalix’s office with a troubled expression. “What did you do to Eve?” Nick asked with displeasure. “Nothing,” Kalix glanced at him briefly and returned focus to his computer. A long sigh escaped Nick. “She came to me complaining and crying. It’s very disturbing, you know.” “Oh, really?” Kalix asked indifferently, as if he already knew. Nick didn’t respond, forcing his composure. Once again, he asked a question he had posed several times before, “So, when will your plan be executed? Honestly, I’m tired of dealing with that girl.” Kalix looked up, momentarily forgetting his work. He said seriously, “Wait for them to make the first move, this is related to them.” “Ah, so if they do nothing, you won’t do anything to them?” “I will still do it. Even just having malicious intent is already a crime.” No more words were exchanged between them, each lost in their own thoughts. About a week later, after Kalix coerced Eve into signing a loan receipt, Ni
With a bad mood, Chloe entered the restaurant. Her anger couldn't be hidden anymore. Scanning the surroundings, her gaze fixed on the back of a man in a black suit. Chloe approached the man, skillfully avoiding people in her way. She grabbed his collar, turned him around, and directed a punch at his handsome face. "Oliver, damn your ancestors! You fired me without clear reasons. Don't you remember I stood by you from scratch? I'll kick your butt!" Her eyes, red with sadness, anger, and disappointment, wanted to brutally hit him and make him realize his foolishness. She was determined to make him suffer! Kalix was stunned, reflexively raising his height to retaliate against the sudden attacker. However, he halted upon hearing a woman's voice. Restaurant staff and security rushed toward them, one of them tried to pull Chloe away but was stopped by Kalix's gaze. His internal system warned him not to offend her feelings. Kalix cleared his mind, gently holding the woman's arms behind
