Chapter 2 "Ahhh!" Something grabbed my ankle. At the same time, I dropped the bundle of branches I was carrying. The branches crashed onto the ground with a loud clatter. Only then did my scattered thoughts finally return. A... a demon...? It was hard to deny it. Everything happening to me was already so unrealistic that I had no reason to believe otherwise. Gathering my courage, I slowly turned around. The moment I did, our eyes met. It seemed the demon had been watching me the…-

Chapter 36 Cola Just Helped (3) Quite some time had passed since Cola sales began. The beverage industry market situation proceeded not much different from Baron Keystone’s predictions. “Oh dear, the line’s the same today too.” “I wonder if I’ll get to drink it once before I die.” “There’s no way… But I hear the dealers are reselling like crazy these days?” “Even so, paying a whole shilling per bottle is a bit…” First, Cola’s position itself was solid. The public…-

Chapter 35 Cola Just Helped (2) “Miss Penelope, I want to refuse the investments.” “All of these?” “All of them.” A firm statement. Penelope, who’d been running around since morning gathering investment proposals until her shoes were soaked with sweat, felt hurt. Actually, she was a bit sulky too. “You said you needed more funding.” Cola was a very promising business even now. It had a powerful narrative riding the Bellaby-social circles trend, and the taste itself was…

Chapter 34 Cola Just Helped (1) Cola was released to the market. The price was 2 pence per 355ml bottle. It could be purchased at the Cola Wholesale Direct Sales Location at the warehouse branch near Nortaris Central Station, with a purchase limit of 100 bottles per person.

Chapter 33 I Released Cola in Nortaris! (3) Jurgen, Penelope, and Serena. The three of them stepped into Cola Factory No. 1, riding a Caliburn Model K (four-seater). Naturally, Serena took the wheel. Upon confirming the factory interior, an overwhelming resonance pounded Jurgen’s chest. “Ohhh…” The factory interior, transformed beyond recognition from the dusty brewing facility it once was. Though it wasn’t his first time seeing it today, Jurgen was moved each time. A syrup maker…

Chapter 1 People say that when you die and transmigrate into another world, your status rises. "Stop wasting time and move!" "If you don't finish today's quota, nobody eats!" But when I opened my eyes, I had become a seven-year-old prisoner. Under the prison guards' harsh shouts and the occasional crack of their whips, the other prisoners and I worked hard, drenched in sweat. This happened so suddenly that I didn't even have time to be shocked. The adults mined ore from the mine, while I…

Chapter 32 I Released Cola in Nortaris! (2) The inside of the auction house was already packed with people. An interior so spacious that shouting ‘yahoo’ would echo—yet there wasn’t a single spot to step. Bankers, businessmen, or representatives from merchant associations, each interested in the legacy Polar Sun left behind. Penelope was the only noble personally present and seated. Since she even came wearing a red, flashy dress, countless glances poured toward her. “Damn it… Why of…

Chapter 31 I Released Cola in Nortaris! (1) A meeting room without a single window. Thick cigarette smoke drifted over an old mahogany table. Marcus, chairman of the Gray Council, polished his monocle with a soft cloth as he spoke. "As everyone gathered here knows, our old friend Sir Edwin Blyton has met an unfortunate end and become a hangman. Let us observe a moment of silence in mourning." The reactions varied. Some quietly observed the silence, others clapped while sneering, and some maintained…

Chapter 30 Clarisse Rosemore (2) Night seeped into the reception room that had gone days without a caretaker’s touch. Beneath the bluish moonlight that stretched like stage lighting. A woman sat on the sofa with a handkerchief neatly spread beneath her. Red eyes that shone like freshly cut roses, Platinum blonde hair so noble it seemed each strand was woven on a loom from moonlight itself. A gaze quietly cast down beneath long eyelashes and an elegant neckline. Her beautiful form was like a…

Chapter 29 Clarisse Rosemore (1) “What? Wh-what did you just say?” Serena had just heard a shocking truth. “I’m really sorry, Miss Serena.” When the two borrowed the car, she hadn’t expected to get it back anyway. The weak get devoured. That was the cold, harsh rule of the world. “H-how could it be totaled in just one day…” But she never imagined they’d scrap her precious car in just a day after she asked them to take good care of it. Using her imagination to predict what…
