Chapter 37: Completely in the Wrong Boat!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jack had a bright future as a master’s student in human-resource management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Not to mention that Jack’s dad was the chairman of a listed company to begin with.
This sort of family background and ability was no longer winning at the starting line. He was already standing at the end of the line that most people would never be able to reach in their entire lives!
To put it bluntly, Jack’s father was urging Jack to go back and inherit the family fortune every day!
In the room.
Jack looked at McRae, who was busy reviewing the list. From his initial shock, he began to think seriously about what McRae had said.
The Divine Realm was indeed very fun, but it was obviously irrational to be a full-time player just for fun.
But now, the influence of the Divine Realm in real life could no longer be viewed as a simple game.
Three billion gamers had shown the financial giants new potential markets.
Jack, who had been influenced by that world since he was young, was naturally acutely aware of the God’s Domain market value that had already emerged.
Now, his good friend was a famous figure that everyone knew in the Divine Realm. If the guild was successfully established, perhaps he could really create a new financial legend?!
Jack looked at McRae in front of him and frowned. He thought to himself,
“But the risk is too great.”
As far as Jack knew, two or three of the financial giants on Wall Street had already started to invest in assets in the Divine Domain.
With McRae’s strength alone, would he be able to survive the currency wars of these financial giants?
Jack, who knew how cruel capital markets were, was very worried about this problem.
Numerous real-life problems left Jack deep in thought.
It wasn’t until his fingernails were deeply embedded in his palm that the sharp, stinging sensation woke Jack, who was concentrating so hard on his thoughts.
Jack randomly wiped his palms and said hatefully,
“F*ck!”
Then, Jack began to review the list of people.
Seeing Jack start to help, McRae said with a half-smile,
“Yo, so you’ve made the decision to join me?”
Jack scolded jokingly without looking up.
“You are a fool who only knows how to operate and play games… and you actually want to build a guild!”
“I’m afraid that without my help, those old foxes will make you die very miserably.”
McRae did not deny this.
After all, he knew nothing about guild management.
Without waiting for McRae to speak, Jack, who was busy reviewing, continued to lampoon.

“I wonder, how do you have the guts to dare form a guild!”
“The Divine Realm is different from previous games. In the real world, there are too many capital teams that want to profit in the Divine Realm.”
“Building a guild is their first step. You’re so strong, yet unprepared to build a guild. You will definitely be targeted by these people.”
“A man fears getting fame, a pig fears getting fat. Don’t you know that the hunter will shoot the bird that sticks out?”
“I’m not exaggerating! Maybe someone is already preparing to assassinate you!”
Jack didn’t care if McRae was listening. He continued muttering,
“Even if we don’t consider these conspiracy theories in the real world and establish a new guild… Everyone is a newbie.”
“Many basic things are unclear, be it the management of the warehouse or the daily expenses and order of the guild.”
“Wait, wait, wait. Have you considered these practical questions?”
McRae nodded and said calmly,
“I have you, don’t I.”
Petrified, instantly petrified.

Jack didn’t know if he should be touched by his friend’s unconditional trust, or if he should just slap this God McRae who wanted to do nothing!
McRae scratched his head and continued,
“Right.”
“How much do you earn per month in your company?”
Although talking about money hurt relationships, he had to mention it.
As a playboy, Jack naturally had the capital to be one.
Although he often took leave now, as the young boss, his salary was naturally enough.
But Jack hadn’t expected Maire to ask that question.

Still.
McRae was actually considering the problem of reality. This gave Jack, who was worried about the guild’s future, some comfort.
McRae’s decision to form a guild seemed serious and prepared.
But before Jack could answer and praise McRae, McRae said lightly,
“I don’t know exactly the details. Anyway, I don’t have much money right now, so you can just do it for free for now. We’ll talk about it when the guild makes money.”
“Pfft!”
Jack felt like he was about to vomit blood from this guy.
Why did I agree to this idiot!
Furthermore, even though he had made such a huge decision to form a guild with him, it turned out he was actually a volunteer?!
But.
As a friend of McRae’s for many years, Jack still believed in his promise.
Although Jack was often speechless at McRae’s crazy guts, there was a strange charm about this man that made people trust him unconditionally.

Looking at Jack whose face was all serious and buried in thought, McRae stood up, reached out his hand and gently patted Jack’s shoulder. He spoke with a heavy tone:
“Don’t be polite with me. I just gave you the position of the head of the logistics department, didn’t I? I believe that you will be able to complete the mission well.”
Jack was having trouble answering.
At the start, he only felt that his good friend was actually a great god that everyone in the Divine Realm respected.
They wanted to have fun together, but the development of the matter was clearly out of the scope of entertainment.
Was he realy about to just not care about his family’s company, and directly become a full-time gamer with McRae, his bad friend? He was even working for free to build a guild?!
McRae patted Jack again and said earnestly,
“Don’t be afraid that you won’t do well. I trust you 100%!”
Jack, who had received too much information and was about to lose his ability to think, shivered and subconsciously replied,
“I’m fine.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely complete the mission.”
After saying that, Jack felt his vision go dark.
It’s over. I’ve been brainwashed. I’m completely on this guy’s pirate ship now.
