As soon as Klaus, Nadia, and the group left the meeting room, they decided to grab some lunch. The mood was light, and everyone was in good spirits after the fitting. Just as they sat down at the table, Dede and Hanna announced Klaus's new deal with Nucci Fashion Trend X. "Wow, it hasn't even been a minute, and the news of your signing with Nucci is already trending," Lucy said with wide eyes, her phone in hand. She had always been the first to notice things online, and this was no exception. The rest of the group quickly grabbed their phones to check the news themselves. "No way!" Nadia said with a beaming smile. "The pre-sales have already frozen the website!" Klaus chuckled, surprised at how quickly everything was happening. "That's crazy." "What do you expect?" Lucy said, puffing out her chest with pride. "Any recommendation I make is always top-notch." "Look at you, all happy," Nadia teased. "But seriously, thank you for making this happen." Lucy grinned and waved off the compliment. "Well, you can convert that thanks into designing some top-quality armor for all of us." The entire table erupted in smiles and chuckles. Anna, Kay, Asha, and the others shot Nadia looks, their gazes silently agreeing with Lucy's suggestion. Even Klaus couldn't help but join in, giving Nadia a playful smirk. "Well, if that's what it takes," Nadia said with a mock sigh, "I guess I'll have to get to work." Everyone smiled at Nadia's playful response. Then Klaus, with a serious yet thoughtful look, turned to Nadia and asked, "Can I commission an exclusive design for someone? I'll come up with the design, but I'll need your help to bring it to life." Nadia raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "An exclusive design? For who?" she asked, a curious smile creeping onto her face. Klaus hesitated for a moment before replying, "It's for my mom. I want something special for her, something that'll remind her of everything we've overcome. Something she can wear proudly." Nadia's smile softened, and she nodded. "Of course, Klaus. I'd be honored to help. We'll make it perfect." The others at the table exchanged knowing glances, their smiles growing softer as they thought about Klaus's devotion to his mother. They had all witnessed just how deep that bond ran between them. Klaus's mother wasn't just a parent—she was his source of strength, his foundation, and they all can see that. He cares deeply about her. Unbeknownst to most, she had sacrificed so much over the years. She had sold almost all of her possessions to make sure Klaus had what he needed. Klaus had watched her eat only a fraction of the meals she prepared, making sure he always had enough, even when times were tough. Because of this, Klaus had made a solemn promise to himself. When he awakened, his mother would be his top priority. Everything he did from that moment on was for her, even if it meant putting his own life second to hers. As the room settled into a more relaxed atmosphere, Lucy broke the silence with a grin. "So, aside from that futuristic leather armor and those high-tech sunglasses you mentioned as part of the first line, what else are we going to be working on? I know you have some crazy ideas in the works. Care to share?" Nadia's eyes lit up with interest. "Weapons, huh? That's an intriguing idea. We've been focusing on clothing so far, but high-tech weapons could be a great addition." Nia who had been sitting quietly nodded in agreement and said. "I've seen some amazing designs for weapons, but if they're combined with the kind of tech you're talking about, they could be game-changers. Imagine a bow with adjustable tension and smart targeting, or a sword with built-in elemental effects." She clapped her hands together. "And don't forget about the axe. They could have interchangeable heads and smart balance systems. The possibilities are endless!" She stopped looking at the people in the room look at her with widen eyes. Clearly, she is an erudite, the kind who loves to explore weapons. Klaus didn't peg her to be someone like that, but thinking about it, Ohema who is even more beautiful than Nia was the same. She practically knew everything there was to know. During his time in the forest, he learned a lot from her. It got to some point, it was Klaus who snapped her out of her monologues. So seeing Nia be on full weapon savvy, he couldn't help but picture Ohema in his mind. Nadia's smile grew wider as she considered the idea. "You know, that's not a bad thought. We could start with a few prototypes and see how they perform. There's definitely a market for high-tech weapons, especially if they're designed with the same attention to detail as our clothing." Daniel grinned, clearly pleased with the reaction. "I'm telling you, it could be huge. People love cutting-edge tech, and weapons are no exception." Anna and the others nodded enthusiastically. "Count us in for testing and feedback," Anna said. "We'd love to see what you come up with." Nadia looked around at her friends and partners, her mind racing with ideas. "Alright, it's settled then. We'll start exploring the world of high-tech weapons. I'll need to do some research and get back to you all with the first concepts." Klaus felt a surge of excitement at the prospect. "Although I don't like to brag, however when it comes to weapons, I'd say I'm an expert. So, if you're really serious about this new venture, I'll make sure to put in my best effort to see it succeed." Everyone looked at him with smiles on their faces, sensing his seriousness. They were all eager to see what he could accomplish. Little did they know, Klaus's unique class made him an Overlord of all weapons. His expertise in wielding any weapon and unlocking its full potential was unparalleled. story-by-MvLeMpYr As the group continued enjoying their meal and discussing future plans, Nadia's phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the screen and answered quickly, "Dede, what's up?" "Boss," Dede's voice crackled through the phone, "The presale has sold out in under ten minutes. Vira and the team are asking if they should set up a new round with a 5% discount." Nadia's eyes widened in surprise. "Sold out already? That's incredible! Yes, definitely set up a new presale with the discount. We need to keep the momentum going." Klaus raised an eyebrow, impressed. "Looks like things are really taking off." Nadia nodded, her excitement barely contained. "It's all thanks to you, Klaus" "Well, what are friends for" Klaus said making Nadia smile widen. Being friends with a rising star like Klaus sure has its perks. "We can head to the fitting next, I still have to get your measurements for your new wardrobe change and your clothing for the Felin Youth ball coming next two weeks," Nadia said leading everyone away.
