Chapter 83: Enhancements, Changes

As he tracked the source of the smell, Michael was dumbfounded to realize that the smell was actually originating from his body.

But, looking at his body that looked clean, there did not seem to be any kind of dirt on him.

Additionally, was the water from the shower head above not still pouring on him?

Despite his confusion, Michael began a session of body scrubbing, using all types of shampoos and other soaps available in the bathroom, to clean his body.

It was only after he had repeated this process several times that finally, the smell finally disappeared.

As he took in a deep breath of fresh air, Michael could finally feel relaxed.

A he looked at his figure in the mirror, Michael suddenly realized something. He seemed to have gotten a little more handsome than before.

With this out of the way, Michael got out of the bathroom, changed into a new pair of clothes, and settled on the bed.

Now, he was complaining to the system. Why was it that in the product description, there was no description of the after effects of taking the serum?

If the effects had been listed, Michael would have been prepared in advance. He could not imagine what would have happened if he had taken the serum away from home.

That was especially if he was in a public place, what would have happened at that time?

In the system store, the description of the product itself were available. But, for what happened after it was consumed, it was blank.

Despite how many times he complained, Michael did not receive any response from the system, as though the system was dead.

Groowl!

Michael wanted to continue complaining when suddenly, his stomach grumbled.

’Damn!’ Michael could not help but curse internally.

This was something that he should have already anticipated, but he had totally forgotten about it while ranting to the system.

Due to the enhancements that he had received from the unarmed combat skills, his appetite had increased.

So of course, with his physique being enhanced to a level beyond that of a human, the appetite was bound to grow further.

Michael quickly rushed to the kitchen, opened the fridge, before he took out several types of food that were stored there.

Lucky for him, Adrian always prepared more meals in advance, just in case Michael wanted to eat.

As for Adrian, when he realized that Michael was eating cold food, he also rushed to the kitchen, before he began warming the food that Michael had not began eating.

It took quite a while for Michael to be able to fill his completely empty stomach. It was only then that he felt quite satisfied.

Of course, he did not forget to vent out to the system once again, before he went back to the bedroom and lay down.

He was feeling kind of sleepy, despite the time only being 8 p.m.. Maybe, this was the side effect of taking the evolution serum.

Regardless, after venting out his dissatisfactions and frustrations, he concentrated on the gains that he had gotten from this evolution serum.

Apart from his enhanced senses such as hearing, smell, taste, touch and sight, he felt that his body was completely light.

It seemed, if he decided to jump, he would be able to jump higher than ever before. As for how high he could jump, that would still need to be tested out.

In any case, that was something that would be done on the following day. For the time being, all that he needed to do was to rest.

So, without even realizing it, in less than a minute after entering the bedroom, Michael fell into a deep slumber.

….

While Michael was sleeping, others were having a sleepless night.

This time, the acquisition of the entire Sky Technologies did not leave just Martin troubled.

Quite a number of people had already been eyeing Sky Technologies, especially after getting the news that there was a device that they were about to launch.

But, due to how quickly the chairperson had reacted, the shares had been locked, making it impossible for others to acquire them.

But suddenly, on this night, news began circulating, claiming that all the shares of Sky Technologies had been acquired.

This was something that would not have surprised people much. But, what shocked them was that, all the shares had been acquired by the same person.

This implied, Sky Technologies was now a property of a single person. How could the people not be shocked?

Sky Technologies was the giant in the technology industry within the Eastern province. And within Brenton city, it was one of the major companies.

So, any events that happened within the company were quite followed by most people, especially those of the high circle.

In just less than an hour since Michael completed the purchase of the rest of the shares of Sky Technologies, the major families within the city had already gotten the information.

They immediately began moving, trying to find the identity of the person who had purchased the company. After all, most of the families had some collaboration with this company in one way or the other.

So, they would be concerned, just in case this acquisition would negatively affect the collaboration between them.

Martin had already gone back home, but had not yet slept at the time that he was notified about the acquisition of the company.

He was still in his study, finalizing everything related to the launch of the device that was supposed to be released on the first day of the following month, August.

And when he realized that the person who had acquired the company was none other than the person who had first acquired 2.5% shares of the company, he was shocked.

Since the first purchase of the shares, Martin had been keeping an eye on this person named Michael. But, it was completely out of his expectations that this person would end up buying the company in the end.

For a moment, it was quite difficult for him to be able to convince himself that this was true. After all, all the shareholders knew about the product launch, and were eagerly waiting for it.

This was something that the R&D department had been working on for quite a few years, and now, all that remained was the launching, for it to be tagged as successful.

From what Martin knew, as soon as the product was launched, the market value of the company would be able to soar.

And at that time, the price of the shares would increase from $10.53, to at least $11. And, there was a possibility that the price might actually go higher than that.

So, it was quite puzzling to him why even the chairperson would sell his shares at such a critical moment. If they had waited for just two days, they would have been able to earn more, even if they sold their shares then.

But when he thought about what the chairperson had told him before, he seemed to understand.

This person, he had a formidable background. So, it was entirely possible that the shareholders decided to sell the shares, in respect to the background that this person had.

Now, this made Martin curious, just what kind of background did this person have? For most of the shareholders of Sky Technologies, none of them was weak.

Otherwise, they would have already been replaced by someone else, especially when the news about the new device about to be launched spread out.

“It doesn’t matter. It has already happened. And, this is quite beneficial to the company, as the number of decision makers has been reduced.

As long as this new owner does not have the intention of playing around with the company, we should be able to progress further.” Martin mumbled to himself.

Previously, due to several shareholders, some matters required discussion among them, before finally a decision was made.

Sometimes, it would be impossible for them to be able to make a decision for several days, sometimes stretching to weeks.

If it was something that urgently needed to be dealt with, the slow decision making would have a negative impact.

Additionally, sometimes, a shareholder might come up with an idea that was beneficial to the shareholders. It was just that, if this was a decision that ended up affecting the company in the long term, it would be quite unwelcome to the majority of the company executives and employees.

But of course, since they did not have the main decision making power, they could only follow the decisions made by the shareholders.

Now, as long as this person was understanding, and had a vision for the company success, things might work out quite well.

But of course, as he was thinking about this, Martin did not forget about the possibility of losing his position as the CEO of the company.

While the probability was low, there was still that chance. After all, this new owner might have another person that they trusted to hold that position.

As for the achievements that he had obtained until now, it was not as though he was the only person who was capable of that.

As he was thinking about this, Martin suddenly thought of something else. Quickly, he took out his phone and made a call to Clara.
