“Brandon. Let’s go home.”

“Yes, Mr. Levy.”

‘I have to be careful about developing new products through the fusion of magic and science. I was too lazy to do research, so I tried to cover it up with magic, but it was almost dangerous. Even if it’s high-circle magic, these guys will be able to tell that ‘magic was used’, even if they can’t tell exactly.

But, although it is almost the same as Maldek’s magic system, there are some differences. Hmm. Why is that? Well. If you find the organization called Chroma, this curiosity will be resolved on its own. Anyway, Uh~gu. Should I extend this research time? Anyway, I have to be careful about my actions and trying to introduce a new medicine with otherworldly items.

For the time being, I should stop researching healing potions or elixirs. They might know about them since they are so easy to obtain. First, I need to understand them. Even if it is not a new product, you can always make enough money by investing in stocks.

Min-gi hasn’t yet found his place on Earth.

Nowadays, we simply have the ability to make money based on our knowledge of the future.

Later, when I grow bigger and stronger, I might be able to create my own ‘secret intelligence organization’, but for now, it was a distant dream.

Because of this, there was no way to dig up the secret organization with just one phone number.

There was no way to dig any further now, unless I had a useful hacker to enslave later.

It can only be done by physically meeting face to face.

So I decided to wait and see for another 3 to 4 months.

Only then can we get rid of that ‘branch manager’ guy above us.

Only then will we be able to get a hold of the secret organization called ‘Chroma’.

Even if they have not done anything wrong, can’t we just beat them all up like the KKK?

“Louis. How’s everything going with what we talked about last time?”

“Are you talking about short selling Nu Skin?”

“Yes. It has to be at the level of Nu Skin to produce some quantity. There’s something to suck up.”

“We are preparing without a hitch. As you said, the stock price on January 10th was $137, and assuming that it will plunge 45% to $76 in 3-4 days, we plan to mobilize as much money as possible to hit and run in the short term. Nu Skin’s market capitalization is around $10 billion, so there is enough volume.”

“There is nothing suitable for a short-term hit and run, so please make good use of the information.”

“Of course. If you can’t make enough profit after getting this information, you don’t deserve to be on Wall Street. My current estimate is that I can make about $1 billion in profit from this one shot. I plan to put all my spare money, except for the money tied up in mid- to long-term funds, into this one shot. Since it’s a short-term investment, there’s no chance that a lot of money will be tied up.”

“And the stocks with the highest stock price increase rate in the Korean market and the top ranking of IPO stocks are proceeding without a hitch?”

“Of course. Don’t worry. First, after Nu Skin, Tesla Inc. is next. This stock is currently at $148, but by the end of February, it will be at $244, a growth rate of 164%. The market capitalization is also about $40 billion, which is a big deal for us. After that, there is nothing to eat in the short term in the US stock market, so investments in Korea and third world countries are scheduled right away.

Korea Information Certification February 4th. Interpark INT February 6th, Oi Solution, BGF Retail, etc. are all proceeding as planned. Experts are gathering together to regularly meet and review to invest our funds as efficiently as possible. Don’t worry. We are making investments that show the best efficiency by calculating every penny and every day.”

“Yes. I will trust you and leave it to you. Next is MF Pharmaceuticals’ Neomi Kale CEO. Report to me.”

“First of all, we have very good news from the FDA. They say that the progress of this first clinical trial is almost perfect. Thanks to this, there is a hopeful report that the clinical trial period can be greatly shortened.”

“I don’t know much about FDA clinical trial procedures. Could you explain it to me in a little more detail?”

“Yes. Usually, FDA clinical trials are divided into four major stages. However, the last stage 4 is a stage to further review stability after the product is released, so it can be considered as stage 3 until the new drug is released. Of course, this is after the preclinical stage, such as animal testing, is completed.”

“Anyway, among the three stages of testing, the first clinical trial is a test for toxicity and stability of the ingredients. It has a 60% success rate and usually takes about a year.

Clinical 2 trials are tests for the effectiveness of a drug. It is the first step to test the efficacy of the drug as well as the side effects on patients, so it has the lowest success rate and the longest period of time. It has a success rate of about 30% and takes about 2 years.

And the clinical 3 trial is similar to the phase 2 trial, but it is a trial with a large number of patients. The dosage, etc. are determined through this trial. The cost is the highest in phase 3. The success rate is 58%, and the average period is about 2 to 3 years. After phase 3, the stage with the highest success rate in clinical trials is the NDA/BLA, which is the product approval stage for new drugs.

The NDA and BLA stages are a final review process after passing all clinical tests for the corresponding indications in clinical trials 1 to 3, so the probability of passing is high (85%) and the period is short, around 6 months.

After going through all these processes, the success rate is about 9.6% and it takes about 6.5 years to finally get approval as a new drug. This means that out of the first 100 clinical trials, only about 10 will survive.

Of course, our new drug is a special antibiotic, so we expected it to take about half that period, about three years. But as I mentioned earlier, our first test results were so good that it seems like the period will be shortened considerably. So if we do well, we may be able to launch it in about two years.”

“Ah. That’s really fortunate. Although, from my perspective, two years is a long way off.”

“If I did it wrong, it could have taken 10 to 12 years. On top of that, I would have spent money and time, and then ultimately failed the evaluation. At this point, it’s almost like a free ride.”

“Well, I see. I’m glad it worked out well. By the way, how’s the analysis of the second sample I gave you going?”

“Ah. You mean that innovative tea that helps with dieting? Was it called ‘Shapremin’? Anyway, it’s a tea made from the berries of that plant.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Well, it got a bit complicated.”

“Yes? Why?”

“First of all, the ingredient analysis is complete. It is a very innovative new substance that has never been discovered on Earth before. It is so amazing that I cannot understand how Mr. Levy can continue to bring me such amazing samples. Anyway, this is a ‘health supplement’ and is not to be taken in the form of a medicine.

That’s why it’s impossible to synthesize it. It’s impossible to change the general chemical structure or extract only the effective components. It exists only in the form of a herbal medicine and is only effective in that state. Therefore, it would be better to release it as a supplement as is rather than releasing it as a new drug.”

“What does that mean?”

“That means it cannot be artificially synthesized. Of course, we need to invest more time, do more analysis, and try many more synthesis and processing attempts, but as of now, the conclusion is that ‘synthesis is impossible.’”

“So. Is it a failure? Does that mean we can’t produce this as a product?”

“Ah. That’s not it. This means that you have to grow the original tea tree and extract the necessary parts at that time. You can’t mass-produce it by extracting only the effective ingredients. In other words, you have to farm it. That’s the fastest way to understand it.”

“Ah. So you’re saying that we have to grow it ourselves and extract the ingredients?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Wouldn’t that be easier? If it’s a health supplement, it would be much easier to get FDA approval, right?”

“Generally speaking, yes. However, the problem is that attempts to grow this plant continue to fail. I have no idea why. I have tried to grow it in various environments, from temperature to humidity to nutrients, but it just won’t grow. The longest I’ve kept it alive is a month. After a month, it’s still just a young sprout, and the fruit that shows the diet effect hasn’t grown yet.

This plant is a perennial grass, according to our analysis. It has to be grown anew every year, like rice or wheat. But it has to be grown for at least 5-6 months to bear fruit. But it can’t grow for more than a month. There’s no problem until it first sprouts. But after two weeks, it sprouts and is transplanted, and it immediately wilts and dies.

Just in case, I tried growing them in various environments from the beginning without transplanting them, but it was the same. It’s not a problem with the transplant. I think it’s probably lacking ‘a certain’ ingredient that is essential for the plant to grow.”

“hmm……”

“Anyway, this will probably take more time. If you give me more time to investigate what ingredients are essential for the growth of that creature……”

“Oh, wait a minute. I think I know what the problem is. There’s something I heard when I got that pool.”

‘Let’s see. What are the growth conditions of Shapremin tea? There was something special about it…. Ah~! Mana. Mana was the problem. I remember seeing a research paper in the Magic Tower data room that said Shapremin tea had almost no effect in places where mana was concentrated or on magicians or knights with abundant mana. If that’s true, then the reason it doesn’t grow is probably because of the Earth’s abundant mana. How do we solve this?’

“Me. Mr. Neomi Kale. Please come to my apartment tomorrow afternoon with Mr. Lewis to meet me for a moment. I have something to tell you tomorrow. I will explain it to you in detail when we meet tomorrow.”

“Yes, thank you. Are you going to give me something groundbreaking again?”

“Haha. More details tomorrow.”

Min-ki returned home and began engraving a magic circle on a small copper plate.

Mana equalization magic circle.

A magic circle that maintains a weak concentration of mana in a certain space.

This is an auxiliary magic circle that allows you to maintain magic stably in places where the flow of mana is irregular or goes wild in the other world.

If you add a little bit of mana rejection magic to this magic circle, it will probably be able to show a mana density on the level of the ‘Central Continent of Marsen’.

According to Min-gi’s prediction, the growth condition of the ‘Shapremin’ grass is ‘not too much mana’.

Of course, it is not yet clear. However, based on the current inference, this is the most likely. Furthermore, since this is truly a magical artifact, I even put up a hide magic circle and an anti-theft magic circle in case it is stolen.

He instructed Neomi to secretly place the samples he had made in that way in the research building without telling the researchers.

Later, when we start farming on a large scale, we plan to secretly carve magic into things like automatic watering machines, fences, and stakes.

Then, even if the saffron grass is stolen, it will not grow anywhere else.

No matter how much research is done, it is impossible to imagine that something essential for survival is lacking, because there is so much ‘mana’ in the atmosphere that cannot be detected.

However, since we discovered traces of people using magic on Earth, we were careful to camouflage ourselves thoroughly so as not to be detected.

Emilia was happy every single day because of her boyfriend, Levy, whom she was dating recently.

Levi was very kind and gentle, unlike any other man I’d ever seen before.

Even the bed that she had felt so uncomfortable with, Emilia now enjoys it without any resistance, thanks to the way he always cherishes and loves her.

There was just one drawback.

That means Levy is quite busy.

Emilia, who was experiencing a proper romantic relationship for the first time, wanted to be with Levy all day long except for class.

But her lover, Levy, was always busy.

I was busy studying and busy doing business(?).

Thanks to that, I had a lot of time to study alone.

Levy kept a clear distinction between work and love life, unlike other Asians I had heard from his friends.

I made a clear distinction between when I would work and study and when I would socialize and have fun.

At best, once or twice during the week.

And we were barely able to meet on the weekend.
