"Is he usually like that?" ken asked uncertainly to Max.

"Well, you'll get used to being with him for a day," replied Max kindly who seemed to start forgetting their previous quarrel.

Morning with the sunshine that just showed the light. A young man in his blanket had to open his eyes when he felt the sunlight shining down on his tent.

With the typical messy hair of waking up the man, Zen sat himself down quietly while doing a light stretch with a sweet smile on his face.

'Finally the eight hours of sleep I always wanted was granted!' inner Zen with an imaginary cry within.

Lazily, his eyes glanced at the sleeping bag located beside him that had folded neatly where Max had slept before.

"He's up? What time is it?" murmured Zen quietly while looking at the whereabouts of his phone.

"Eight hours past fifteen, well not too early or noon," Zen said, then pulled over the blanket he was using and got up and walked out to look around.

"Sister Zen! Good morning!" lin exclaimed suddenly a moment after Zen walked out of his tent.

"For Zen!" greet Leo slowly not forgetting his cheerful smile.

"Yo, finally wake up too, eh?" max asked while holding the cup of instant noodles in his hand.

"Oh, you guys having breakfast?" max asked as he looked at the hands of each of them holding an instant noodle cup.

"Yes! What does Zen want? We have already cooked one for big brother," Lin said as she pointed towards the untouched instant noodles.

"Thank you" said Zen slowly and joined them while eating instant noodles that had been made for him.

"Max by the way, where did they go?" ask Zen slowly.

"They? You mean Ken and his servant?" max asked who was replied with a slow nod by Zen.

"They're in a helicopter, maybe soon they'll be here" Max said, pointing to the helicopter still on the helicopter's runway.

"Did Zen want to talk to them?" leo asked who followed a puzzled look by Lin.

"Yes, I promised you, didn't I?" replied Zen.

"He's Ken Aenass, chairman of Aenass Company, are you sure you can talk to him?" ask Max.

"Why indeed? After all, the company is no longer applicable in this doomsday world," Zen said casually.

"I'm just afraid he's using us to his advantage" Max explains.

"If he can, why can't we? We can also use it to our advantage" said Zen who made Max look at him confusedly.

"What do you want to take from him?" max asked who made Zen smile in a strange way there.

"Of course the money!"

"You awake?" kim asked quietly after Ken opened his eyes.

"Well, what time is it?" asked Ken who was replied with a slow mutter by Kim.

"The clock is nine and twenty-three" Kim said slowly.

"Have you had breakfast?" ken asked after stretching his stiffened body.

"Jin is making food from leftovers in the hospital cafeteria, I think he'll be done soon" Kim said, replying to a nod by Ken.

"They, since when have they gathered there?' asked Ken while pointing towards Zen and the others.

"I think it was an hour ago? I don't know, I didn't ask Jin before" Kim explained.

With a casual gesture, Ken took the gold frame glasses he had removed and put them on and smoothed out his appearance before slowly opening the helicopter door.

"Want to meet them?" asked Kim who was replied to a soft nod by Ken.

"Want to come?" asked Ken who was replied with no hesitation from Kim.

"Of course, I don't want to die of boredom in this helicopter" Kim said, walking out with her brother.

...----------------...

"So that's what you want to do? I think you can say it now," Max casually said as he watched the person they were talking about walk closer to them.

"Yoo, did you sleep well?" asked Ken with a smile as bright as the sun this morning.

"Are we familiar so that we can ask such trivial things?" ask Max sarcastically.

"I think we're getting closer after last night's conversation" Ken said slowly and sat down next to the empty space of the circle they were making.

"Kim, sit next to me" Ken said, patting the empty spot beside him.

Kim who saw that only obeyed her brother's orders and sat there while receiving curious gazes from the four people before her.

"Max Foester's? It looks like you two are in school" Kim said slowly, getting a frown from Max.

"How do you know?" ask Max cautiously.

"It's easy for me, it includes information out of my head" Kim said, giving Max an abstract answer.

"What if we start our conversation that was delayed last night?" ken asked to switch their conversation which made Zen flinch slowly from his daydream.

"Of course, but last night's terms have not changed, we will speak frankly like this" Zen said with a smile on his face.

'Why is that face so familiar? As I've seen it before, Zen's inner glanced slowly at Kim's familiar face in his mind.

"Of course, so can we start with an introduction first?" ask Ken.

"My name is Ken Aenass and the one next to me is my twin sister, Kim Aenass," explained Ken who received a quiet appeal from Lin.

"Ah, you two twins?" asked Lin in disbelief.

"Yes, we twins are not as healthy, we are eighteen years old" Kim said.

"Then introduce! My name is Lin Rodriguez, my current age is seven years, greet Ken and Kim's brother" Lin said excitedly, as if he had forgotten about the incident of not wearing last night.

"I'm Leo Rodriguez, Lin's brother. I'm thirteen years old, greetings," said Leo softly, with a nod from Kim and a faint smile from Ken.

"I think you already know my name but for a brief explanation, my name is Max Foester I'm eighteen" Max said with no intention.

"My name is Zen Westerlock, I am seventeen years old now" Zen said as he extended his hand towards Ken to shake his hand.

"Greetings, Zen," Ken replied generously accepting his handshake.

"So, can you express your wishes immediately?" zen asked, which made Ken's smile wider.

"Previously can I express my assumptions?" asked Ken who made Zen frown but still nodded as a sign of agreement.

"You've said something to me, haven't you?" asked Ken who made Zen frown while thinking quickly looking for a suitable reason for the answer.

"Yes, about business, right? Then why?" zen asked casually even though he was praying in his heart if Ken did not analyze to the worst possibility he had in mind.

"You said that the food business would be very profitable for me, right? Did you predict that an apocalypse like this would happen?" ask Ken directly to the point that makes Zen a little clumsy.

'He guessed it?!' zen in panic.

Not yet Zen replied, Ken again spoke which made Zen sigh a little because his worst thought did not happen.

"But it's impossible if you can figure out the world that will experience the apocalypse. After all, the first time this happened in city A, so you definitely do not know it." said Ken who made Zen smile thinly.

"Of course I don't know this, after all what ability do I have to predict all this?" asked Zen who made Ken frown.

"Maybe you can't, but your brother can" said Ken, who made Zen frown.

"Am I wrong? It's not impossible if our country's intelligent future can predict this, is it, Mr Westerlock?" ken asked with a satisfied smile on his face.

'Brother? So he assumed that it was brother who told me about the end of this world and purposely leaked it to him about the business's clue?' inner Zen summed up everything briefly.

'Then there's no harm in borrowing the name of brother and continuing his game,' Zen's inner self then put on a surprised face of his mainstay.

"Where do you know about my brother?" asked Zen hesitantly.

Max who was beside her could only frown briefly before quickly changing his facial expression quickly.

'He playing? I don't think he wants to bring them in too much, ' Max's inner being kept silent while continuing to pay attention to the conversation the two people were talking about.

"It's not hard to know that, after all the man beside me has all the information I need" Ken said slowly.

'Why do I feel like something is awkward here?' inner Ken but continue the conversation.

"Then what would you like to do if it was all true?" zen asked casually as if it wasn't him who put on a face full of hesitation earlier.

"Of course take all the information you know from your brother," said Ken no less relaxed.

"But I won't get anything here" said Zen, who made Ken's forehead slightly wrinkled.

"Then what do you want?" ken asked which made Zen secretly pull the corner of his lips before neutralizing back his facial expression.

"I want to tell you to run the business I'm thinking about right now" Zen said, which left Ken staring at him in confusion.

"Business? Is there any business that can be done at this time? I don't think you meant the food business back, did you?" asked Ken who was loading Zen looking at him with smiling eyes.

"Of course not, this business is more profitable than the food business," explained Zen who made Ken look at him amusedly but did not hide the raised smile from his lips.

"Then let's say your idea and I'll think about it, if it's a profitable business, I guess I'll start discussing the profit sharing with you" explained Ken who made Zen smile more widely.

"This is why I love doing business with smart people" Zen explained slowly and began to express thoughts about his business to Ken.
