The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world

“If anyone has any problem with the proposal we submitted, then speak up now. Once the contract had finalized, we will not be able to change any of its contents.”

Layla’s loud voice attracted everyone’s attention. Even Yohan was letting her take charge for now because he did not want to stand out.

Now that all three sides’ candidates had finished speaking and the profit shares had been finalized, all that was left was signing the contract. Once that was done, Yohan’s work here would be done.

“I don’t have any problem with the contents of the contract.”

Yohan reviewed the contract that was heavily written in his favor. He had the most shares in profit as well as the minimum loss margin. And it was all thanks to the work Zane had put in beforehand.

The other two parties were not as prepared as Yohan had been and it had been a huge help in securing this dub for their side.

Zane had done well all on his one, but Yohan was sure that they would have emerged as the most profitable party even if Zane had not put in much effort. Putting effort beforehand just made things easier to handle in the long run.

“If no one has any problem, then-”

“Wait a minute. I have a lot of problems with this contract and its signing. Why is this bastard’s share 50% while Saint’s is a mere 20%? Do you know how hard we have to work to protect you all from-”

John was about to spill the beans before he was stopped by his partner. The black-haired female looked a little pissed off as she looked at John before turning toward the party with an apologetic smile.

“I am sorry for my subordinate's rude behavior. He was not trained enough before being let out and I am so ashamed of his behavior. I will be personally responsible for his correction this time so please forgive him.”

John went red before he went pale at the last part. His eyes widened in panic as he looked at the person sitting on his right.

All the fight left his body once he realized that his partner was serious about correcting his behavior. Yohan was sure he could even smell a hint of fear in the air but he was not willing to bet on it.

“Anyway, all that aside, I have to agree with john here. This contract is too biased toward one side. I am surprised to see that Mrs. Layla has no complaint about it.”

The black-haired female had a strong gaze as she smiled lazily while patting the contract. Her words and tone sounded easy going but there was a hint of danger surrounding her.

Yohan was more than sure that this female was far more dangerous than anyone except him and Zane in this room. And her divine power was hitting Yohan right in the face, making his vision go a little hazy.

“Miss Karen, please don’t be so quick to judge the contract. The ratios of what we are being distributed depend on the amount of work all our parties are doing. Since Mr. Yohan is responsible for most of the technical work, the profit cut is deemed reasonable.”

Layla’s defense caused the female Saint representative’s eyes to narrow down. Yohan could feel a faint sense of power heading toward Layla.

Karin was likely checking for any mental powers that could control a human and Yohan felt scared for a second that she would be able to tell.

But a few seconds passed and nothing happened. The divine power Karen had leaked out retreated into her body and tension bled out of her shoulder.

“I see. So this is what you both decided to be fair. I guess I have no room to complain since I showed no interest when the discussion of the distribution of duties was taking place.”

Yohan was surprised to see Karen back down so easily. She did not look like an easy lady to deal with and even the man who had accompanied her looked taken aback.

“Master, you cannot be serious! There has to be some kind of-”

“John, shut up. If you embarrass me anymore then there is no need to come back home.”

John, who had been so vocal about his protest so far fell quiet all of a sudden. What little courage he had gathered also bled out of his body as he faced Karen.

Yohan could not read Karen’s face at that moment, nor could he see her eyes. But he could feel her aura that was rising. She was a formidable opponent for sure but she was ultimately a human.

“So I take it that you have no problem with this contract and you are willing to sign it with us now?”

Layla coughed as she broke the atmosphere that was getting dangerous. She looked like she did not want to be caught up in this argument but had no choice but to do so.

John opened his mouth to protest one last time but was knocked down by Karen. The punch she landed on his stomach looked to be painful as well.

“We have no problem with this contract. However, I have a request.”

This sounded like trouble to Yohan and he wanted to back down. But Zane’s confident look made Yohan stand his ground. It seemed like Zane had everything covered for now.

“A request. I don’t think you are in any situation to suggest a request for our cooperation for now. Aren’t your side the most desperate for this contract?”

Layla was not wrong. It was the Saint group that was having financial problems overall. They attempted to correct their economic situation.

But Karen looked like she was not going to back down and just let things be. Yohan could almost hear her reasoning for this as well.

“Well, I might be at a disadvantage but that does not mean I need this deal.”

Even though Karen said that Yohan was sure that she was bluffing to establish an advantage for herself. It was a cute attempt to try and fool him but no one was going to fall for her tricks.

Still, he wanted to hear Karen out at least once. He had a feeling that it would turn out to be amusing for him as well.

In the end, even Layla decided to give her the benefit of the doubt. The Saint might be having financial difficulties but it was a well-established name in the human world. It would be nice to have them on their side.

“Thank you for hearing my request. It is not something too big I promise. I just want Mr. Yohan Strout to visit the main branch once. There are a lot of young and aspiring people in our main branch so I wanted to have them see what to aim for in the future.”

Karen’s words took Yohan back. Even Layla looked like this was not something she had expected to ever hear in her life.

“I know Mr. Yohan is a busy man but surely he can take out one day in his schedule for me? I would never complain about our cooperation if you do so. See, this is my business card. Here, you take one as well.”

Karen not only forced the card into Yohan’s hand but also into Layla’s and Zane’s. Everything was happening too fast for Yohan’s liking and he could not help but be suspicious of what Karen’s intentions were.

Heck, even John, her one subordinate, looked taken aback by how Karen was behaving and he even tried to gather her attention.

But all Karen did was look at Yohan and wait around for his answer. She was showing her interest in Yohan openly and it rubbed him the wrong way.

Karen was planning to do something but Yohan did not want to give her any opportunity to mess with him. Yohan was about to reject Karen’s offer when he heard Zane choak.

He quickly looked toward his aid who had a blank expression on his face. Finally, Zane looked toward Yohan with a calm expression and nodded toward him to accept Karen’s offer.

And that was what sealed the deal for Yohan. He had not wanted to give Karen any chance to mess around but Zane wanted him to take this offer for a reason.

“Miss Karen, there is no need for”

“Alright. Since this is such a small request from your side, then I will be willing to accept it. I just hope Lady Karen and the Saint guild look after us with a smile on their faces.”

Yohan was being half serious but his words drew a smile from Karen. She looked like she had been handed a prize she had never expected to get her hands on.

The more Yohan looked at her, the more he was sure that Karen had something planned out for him. He gripped the card she had handed over to him tightly in his hand as he shook Karen’s hand one last time.

“Then, I will expect you to give us a visit soon. I am sure the young ones who look up to you will also be happy.”

Karen said that but her words made it sound like she was the one most happy with this outcome.
