[Forge Town]
[Clock ringing]
Niclos says "fuck is it six already?"
Nicolas. He is an Architect who graduated from a relatively average college due to financial constraints. He was a genius from birth. And now his latest project is making a building to preserve food and drinks for a long time"
Nicolas gets up from bed
[Nicolas yawning]
" I worked until 2 a.m. last night, and now I am going to work again," Nicolas says to himself.
Then he opened the closet where his clothes were. After taking out his clothes from the closet. He opened the drawer, and there was a broken pocket watch and a lighter in the drawer. He picked them up. And ready to go to work.
IN CONSTRUCTION SITE
[ Factory Machinery sounds]
[Cement mixing sounds]
Nicolas noticed that all the workers were looking so gloomy somehow.
"Is something happening?" Nicolas was about to ask.
[Interefered]
"Hey Sir, here you are.." Jimmy said.
" Something happened while you were gone." Jimmy said
" Great Jimmy was finding me. To tell me specifically so something big must've happened? " Nicolas said while smiling.
"This is not the time for joking Sir." Jimmy said woefully.
Nicolas swiftly turned serious after seeing Jimmy's expression.
"What happened now ? Of all the times when I was thinking everything is finally solved". Nicolas asked fiercely.
"The owner... The owner of the building, Mr. Williams, sent someone to say that he wants to complete this building six months before the planned date, if not, then he will... He will hire others to complete it in time and he will also..." Jimmy said hesitatingly.
"Also what. What also. Jimmy says it at once?! " Nicolas said while shouting.
"He will also revoke our contract." Jimmy said sorrowfully
"Fuckk!, ...Does Mr. Williams say why he is suddenly demanding this at all times?" Nicolas asked swiftly.
"He said that his competitors had scheduled to complete a building 4 months before our so he wanted us to make this building 6 months before the planned date." Jimmy said.
"What nonsense is this. Do you wanna make me believe this rubbish talk to make the building six months before the planned date? It can't be done." Nicolas said.
"Maximum to maximum 3 months before the planned date. If all the workers work 18 hrs a day" Nicolas said shiveringly.
"That's why The Contractor and all the workers in sight are all looking so gloomy," Jimmy said
Nicolas was so devastated by the thought of the project he worked on. To make it happen with all his heart to make this complex building that every step had a problem to solve to create the structure and now that project is going to some other people
"Those people who don't even know what the structure of the building is." He became so angry just by the thought of it. He can't let anyone take his hard work from him.
So he decided.
"I will go to meet Mr. Williams to not pursue this unreasonable request. I worked for him many times I think he will understand what condition we are in." Nicolas said
All workers' gloomy faces are now starting to brighten a bit by listening to Nicolas.
"I will depart tomorrow morning for Rozanta" Nicolas said.***
