"Silver Beach Gate Dungeon? Interesting. How much do you know about this?" Hearing Diana point out the transaction of the Silver Beach gate dungeon from TSR guild to Anna caught me by surprise. Therefore I couldn't help but get curious about Diana's hunch that led to her betting 49% shares of her company.

"Not much. All I know is that the very same day you were granted a patent for silver milk powder, the TSR guild became the honorary guild of Southern watch. Then today, the southern watch came into the city, and out of all the places, they chose to build their base near a D-rank gate dungeon.

So I verified the ownership of the gate dungeon, then things became clear to me, why the TSR guild became the honorary guild and why the southern watch chose to station at a D-rank gate dungeon. It's because the Southern Emperor bought the Silver Beach dungeon from the TSR guild. Interestingly this exchange happened the same day your silver milk powder was granted a patent.

I think Silver Beach Dungeon is the missing link that the rest of the world is missing in the creation procedure of Silver Milk Powder. " Diana explained her hunch, which led to her crazy idea of gaining my investment in return for a 49% share in Fine Gold, her baby.

"Interesting catch, but I don't see what makes you think that the Silver Beach Dungeon is the missing link that the rest of the world is missing in the creation procedure of Silver Milk Powder? After all, Anna could have just bought the silver beach gate dungeon to own a private beach." Diana's deduction was spot on. I could feel chills and hair on the back of my hand rise. But coming to such a conclusion and connecting Silver milk powder to the Silver beach dungeon would require more evidence than that.

"Yes, but that is less likely. I would not have found all this if not for the Southern Emperor helping you force the circle out of the Sky Blossom City and wiping out its remains.

That day you won the tournament, and the Circle fled the City. I realized that by winning the tournament, you won the recognition and approval of the royal family. As a reward, the Southern emperor helped you exact your revenge on the Circle. But I know the Circle's leader. He is a slippery bastard. He feld the city before the Southern emperor, and her forces could get to him.

Despite the Royal family disproving your patent on silver milk powder, I notice how the southern emperor continued to stay by your side and help you. Although the Southern emperor is known for having a good time, I do not think she would break the Copyright, Patent, and Trademark rules laid by her family for a night with a random high schooler.

Considering all this, I was 60% sure Sliver milk powder was the real deal. With the discovery about the Southern emperor buying Silver beach dungeon owned by the TSR guild, which apparently happens to be directed by you from the shadows, I was 80% sure that your patent was not a fraud." Diana finally explained the pattern of change that she had noticed in the city. She seems to have misunderstand that Circle fled the city because of Anna. Apart from that, the rest was basically correct.

"Why 80%? Why not 100%?" I asked Diana as her train of thoughts intrigued me.

"I read that Certainty is the mother of all fools. Master Wyatt, nothing is certain in this world. I know that humans like to comfort their hearts with false certainty, in turn weakening their minds. That is what led to the downfall of many great men and women.

And also mainly because the Circle is rooting itself in Sun Blossom City after fleeing Sky Blossom city." What Diana is saying is that until she sees it herself, there is no way she could be sure of things, and it would be foolish of her if she did so. But her uncertainty mainly stemmed from why Anna is allowing the Circle to grow in Sun Blossom city if she chased them away from Sky blossom city.

"..." With Diana's every word, I felt like investing in her would be a good idea. But 49% of Fine Gold shares were not enough to fill my appetite. I needed 2% more stakes, making me the biggest shareholder in Fine Gold. Meaning I didn't just want to invest in Diana but own her and her dream.

"Diana, most of what you have speculated is true. But you are wrong about one thing." I declared, as now it was my turn to ensnare Diana.

"Do tell. What am I wrong about?" Diana asked in skepticism. She believed I was trying to throw her off the trail.

"About Circle fleeing the Sky Blossom City. It was not Anna's doing if Anna wanted to, no matter how slippery the circle's leader is, she would have caught him.

Apparently, the Circle has diplomatic immunity in the Southern region. Therefore the Royal family cannot interfere too much in the Circle's activities in the southern region." I explained to Diana that Anna was not the one to chase the Circle out of Sky Blossom city.

"What? That explains why the Circle can resurface in Sun blossom city after fleeing from here. If it wasn't the southern emperor, then who chased the Circle out of the Sky Blossom City?" Diana asked in bafflement.

"That question is for another day. Right now, let's talk about what you are here for." I redirected Diana to her original purpose.

"Master Wyatt, it seems you are warming up to the idea of investing in Fine Gold." Diana was delighted to hear that I wanted to talk more about investing in Fine Gold.

"Correction, Ms. Diana. I want to invest in you, not Fine Gold.. Your words, I am just borrowing them."
