"Wyatt, are you sure?" Old Lorenzo asked if I wanted to publish my paper about the nature of the temperature soul pathway.

"Yes, you heard me. Earlier I wanted to make a buck or two with my discovery, but Ms. Ann has opened my eyes to the bigger picture." I said, glancing at Ann.

"Master Wyatt, I hear you. 15% is all I can offer you. Anything more than that Royal family would be making a loss." Ann finally began to bargain. Since I had proven that I was willing to throw the bat if she was unwilling to play ball.

"Nope. 60:40 split, the Royal family will be getting 40 percent. At first, I wanted a 51:49 split. But I am fining the Royal family 9% for the emotional damage you caused me with your heckling." Now it was my turn to show Ann my might.

Ann pretended that the Royal family did not need the money. But any big organization will never have enough money. So showing that I prefer not to make money instead of taking a loss, I scared Ann straight. Showing her that I needed money but the Royal family was more desperate than I.

"You are kidding, right? The royal family would never agree to these conditions—" I interpreted Ann midway and said, "70:30 split."

"What? You… Fine. But 51:49 split. The royal family will hold the majority cut." The southern region was the poorest compared to the other regions, especially compared to the central region. They could always use more money. Therefore, unlike me, they cannot let go of the money-making opportunity I proposed. No matter how Ann acted, this fact cannot be changed.

"That is possible if the Princess is willing to apologize to me for trying to take advantage of my goodwill. And if the Heatsend family is willing to sign a soul contract stating that it does not try to squeeze me out of my shares later and protect me from other parties." Like I said, even though this was just business, I had taken Ann's words personally. Therefore I requested Ann's apology. As for the other conditions, they were pretty standard so that the Royal family doesn't screw me over later.

"Okay, Master Wyatt. I apologize if my actions earlier offended you. As for the soul contract, we will have to wait for Anna to sober up. Because currently in the military base only she can represent the will of the Royal family." Ann agreed to all of my conditions without hesitation. I was surprised to hear that even Anna's twin couldn't represent the will of the Royal family. It seems being the heir is a big deal.

"Okay, then let's discuss it tomorrow." Since the contract cannot be signed without Anna's presence, there is no point discussing further.

"Wait! We haven't discussed your proposal yet." Ann, finally, asked about my proposal.

"Wouldn't it be better to discuss in Anna's presence since both of you don't have any authority to make decisions?" Only Anna, as the official heir, had the power to represent the Heatsend family. Ann and Lorenzo, at most, could only act as her advisors.

"Okay, I will go get her then," Ann replied.

"Isn't she drunk and wasted right now? " I didn't know how Ann planned to get Anna to attend the discussion.

"I have my ways." Saying that Ann headed out of the cabin to fetch Anna.

"Old man, you start preparing a list of array formations which utilize temperature soul pathways in them. And we have to acquire all of their copyright. Especially those that are no longer in use. We can get their Copyright for pennies." This was my plan. This only worked if I didn't share my discovery with the world. Therefore I didn't have to worry about getting double-crossed by the royal family.

The plan was to modify all the acquired arrays using the principle of temperature soul pathway and reintroduce them to the market. Not all of them will pan out, but those who do will make a fortune. After all, we would be buying the copyrights of the arrays for dirt cheap. This was kind of like insider trading.

"Oh, so you want to buy all the arrays for cheap now, and when your discovery is made public, they will be worth a fortune. And the passive income from their copyright will indeed add up to an even greater fortune over time." Lorenzo understood what I was up to.

"Correct, I believe that with my discovery and your expertise in the array, we can make all these arrays to get operating at a hundred percent more efficiency than the before.

Old man, you need to be very smart about this. Even the unproven array hypothesis that relates to our field is worth buying. Who knows the new principle of temperature soul pathway may open new possibilities for these Arrays.

If we play it smart, we can single-handedly monopolize a massive chunk of the array market." This is the main reason I required the Heatsend Royal Family's help. Though I have insider information, I did not have enough capital, workforce, or prestige to make the most of this information.

Therefore I had to shake hands with the Heatsend royal family. They will do all the heavy lifting in an our partnership once again. The Royal family will do everything in its power to buy the copyrights of the arrays, but they will only own 51% of each copyright. At the same time, I will hold the remaining 49% of it. And eat the fruits of their hard labor.

"I will get right to it. Wyatt, you did it." Said Lorenzo before turning to leave.

"What?" I didn't understand what Lorenzo was talking about.

"You changed my reality as I know. Like you said you would. I have grow old, it's time I passed my legacy to the young."
