    "I can appreciate your honesty. My mother also doesn''t trust you. It''s understandable. After all, you have not met each other. Once you two meet, you will see how simr you guys are. And aren''t my mother''s intention obvious enough by now? " Anna did not seem to be concerned that I was skeptical about her mother''s and family''s ns for me. Instead, she thought her mother and I were too much alike.


    "I can think of various reasons why your mother did what she did. Therefore it would be best for you to tell me what she is up to. To avoid any sort of misunderstanding." Considering how Anna''s mother indirectly provoked the whole city toe after my neck, I did not have any good impression of her. So you have to understand why I was having a hard time trusting Anna''s mother. And if what Anna said is true about her mother and me being alike, then I should not trust her because I would not let a boy from a third-rate city take advantage of my family and daughter.


    "Man, you are so uptight. Isn''t it obvious? Aunt is trying to keep the masses guessing while she prepares the countermeasures for the storm that will follow when the world realizes that a miraculous drug like Silver milk powder exists." Luna answered instead of Anna.


    "…" The reason I gave the Heatsend family 65% of the profits while keeping 35% for myself is that they would be doing all the heavy lifting from investing to finding partners to fending off the predators. I knew I could not swallow it whole, so I decided to share it in exchange for a piece of profit and protection.


    "You have to know though our family is strong, it is not strong enough to withstand thebined attack from all the forces from the world.


    Not to mention after your patent was granted, we did not have enough time to prepare for what was toe. So when the opportunity presented itself, Auntie did not hesitate to help the misunderstanding grow one step further.


    Now that the whole world is specting about the authenticity of the silver milk powder.


    We will move fast and secure the Silver beach dungeon by transporting it to a secure location.


    Once the silver beach is in our palms, no matter how many forcesbine ande knocking at our door for a piece of the cake with the silver beach dungeon in our hands, we can lead them all to settle on a collective understanding." What Luna was trying to say was that the gate dungeon silver beach was the main piece, and those who secured it would have a better standing.


    "What do you mean by collective understanding? And where do I stand in that?" No matter how vague and confusing Luna made her exnation, I still caught on to the critical point.


    "Wyatt, don''t tell me that you are foolish enough to believe that you can monopolize the whole silver milk powder? This world is more profound than you think, and the silver milk powder you have discovered is enough to start another civil war among various families.


    Even if the Orthodox families and government choose to stay silent and leave us be. The empire will not do so, nor will the hidden families, sects, and cults. Silver milk powder is too enticing.


    And if you continue to be stubborn about this, you will not only bring destruction on yourself but the Heatsend Royal family too.


    I am not telling you to give up on your discovery. All I am trying to say is that a lot more mouths will be needed to feed, but you and our family will get the biggest piece of cake. And securing the silver beach ensures just that. And whatever we stand to make, you will receive your share. So do not worry. Just be a little open-minded about this whole thing." Anna finally spilled out the beans that despite the soul contract between us, there wille a time when new terms will have to be discussed. And if I was being stubborn about it, then despite Heatsend families protection, orthodox families will try to get rid of me to make sure they get their share of the cake, no matter how small it is.


    "…" I understood what Anna was saying. Because I have already faced this back on earth. Not just me, many phnthropists have faced the exact situation back on earth. The founder of the world''srgest online shopping website only owned 10% of thepany''s share. The founders of the biggest search engine only owned 5%-6% of the totalpany shares. The founder of the biggest social media only owned 14% of its total shares.


    These founders poured their sweat and blood trying to turn their idea into the biggest conglomerates humanity had ever seen. Still, in the end, they could not even own their dreams and had to cut them into bits and parts and distribute them to vultures so that these people do not destroy them. It''s another thing that selling some of the shares did increase theirpany valuation. Still it was clear that monopoly was near impossible.


    Now in this world, I was also facing the same dilemma. But the difference was that all of the work was being done by the Headsend family. I was sitting on my ass, waiting to profit from their hard work. Yes, silver milk powder is my discovery, but let''s be honest, the alternative was worse than the present situation.


    The alternative was I could be selfish, never apply for a patent, and hide the fact that I had discovered the silver milk powder. And wait till I grow powerful enough to monopolize the production and distribution of silver milk powder.


    Yes, the alternative was an idiotic idea. Thanks to me revealing the silver milk powder, I have climbed the highest possible social standing in the fastest possible period. Thanks to that, I was able to gain and achieve so much. Ego gem, broken runes, are the few of the obvious examples of my gains
