I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel

102  Corleone Familia (1)

While walking in the hallways, a student approached them and had a wide smile as he spoke.

"Hey, do you wanna join our c—"

But Elias and his gang walked ahead, ignoring the students as though they were air.

The student stiffened and let out a long, deep sigh before simply walking away in resignation.

Looking back at the student, Hajin narrowed his eyes and yawned in boredom.

"That's like our fifth time being recruited? What's with these students wanting others in their club?"

"Commission."

Elias replied, much to Hajin's confusion. He thought for a moment before he elaborated.

"They get a commission for every student they recruit. They're given a reward every time they successfully lure in a student to their club, that's why,"

"What's the benefit of having more students in a club though? Isn't it kinda pointless if your club is just a hobby?"

Hajin raised his brows.

"The more members your club has, the more allowance your club receives every month. It's not just a hobby anymore when money is involved. It's business,"

Elias patiently explained. There were a lot of clubs that abused such a system—they were known as 'fisher clubs' by everybody.

Simply put, 'fisher clubs' were scam clubs whose only purpose was to raise the member count and get more allowance from the SSG every month.

Of course, to avoid getting removed, these clubs still participate in club activities for the sake of the minimum requirements.

Elias had already come across five different students recruiting others to their club, and among them, three were disguised fisher clubs.

But he didn't call them out. He just ignored them and let them do what they wanted—as long as they didn't bother him.

He wasn't a paragon of justice that interfered with others' business out of righteousness. That was something even he couldn't act.

Like a movie character had said, it's nothing personal. It's simply business.

Elias embodied that and never let his emotions fully affect his judgment. The last time he did made him regret it until this day.

At this moment, a door with the name sign of 'Supreme Student Government' appeared on his peripheral.

<nulli>'We're here.'

Elias suddenly stopped in front of the door. He adjusted his coat and patted the dust away before knocking on the door.

<nulli>Knock! Knock!

It didn't take long before someone answered.

"Wait a moment."

It was a soft and pleasant voice that came from inside the door.

Elias and the group stood in front of the door, following her instructions.

After a few seconds, the door was pushed open as a female student hurriedly came out and to greet them politely.

"Sorry for the delay. Hello, and you are...?"

The female student tilted her head slightly in confusion, swaying her shoulder-length blonde hair that was tied into an elegant braid.

Her fair, white skin and graceful blonde hair made her seem like a noble princess from another country.

"Elias Corleone,"

Elias nodded indifferently and gestured to both of the men beside him. He plainly introduced them to the female student.

"Hajin Sanchez and Ragna Newgate."

But then he saw Hajin look at him as though he was an incomprehensible being.

"Just... Wow. You're as dry as the Nhardan Dessert. Introduce yourself with more flair, will you?"

Hajin sighed and shook his head. He patted Elias back and whispered 'watch this' before stepping forward with a wide smile.

"The name is Hajin Sanchez, lover of beautiful sights, I didn't know the Student Council also had one with them. Mind if you tell me your name?"

Elias rolled his eyes. Introduction? More like flirtation. Seriously, he wasn't even surprised anymore...

Against Hajin's bold introduction, the female student merely smiled politely.

"I'm the President's Secretary, Elaina Polaris. It's nice to meet you. Do you juniors have an appointment with the president? I must inform you that he's unfortunately not..."

Elias stopped her and shook his head.

"No, I'm here to get a club form. I didn't make any appointments beforehand,"

Elaina's eyes slightly widened in surprise as she paused. She looked at Elias and saw that he was serious.

"...A club form? Is that right? Are you going to make a club?"

"Yes."

Elias gave a short nod.

"...If that's the case, then please let yourselves in. I'll give you the club form inside. Follow me."

Elaina's surprise immediately wore off. She replaced it with a calm and gentle smile as she invited them inside.

She was professional, Elias thought while looking at her back.

***

The inside of the Student Council or Supreme Student Government was a large office with a long wooden desk in the middle.

Elias noted that the room was not only clean and spotless but smelled pleasant as well—it provided a sense of comfort and relaxation.

"You three can take a seat. I'll go get the papers. Please wait for me,"

Elaina informed them before she went to the back of the office.

Elias and the group nodded. He was the first to sit on one of the chairs and recline his back against it.

As soon as he did so, he felt a soft, comforting sensation spread through his back like he was being massaged.

<nulli>'These chairs are good.'

He wouldn't call himself someone who knew about chairs, but this one was perfect for the back<nulli>.

<nulli>'I have to ask Elaina later what chair is this. I'll put it in my clubroom later on...'

Elias thought silently. He sought comfort and relaxation a lot—it was an addicting feeling, it made him feel so free.

"These chairs are so small."

Ragna grumpily commented as he tried to take a seat, but his rear was too big to fit on the chair.

"You're ass is just too huge, Big Fella. Haha! Just stand there and envy us enjoying the chairs."

"It's just a chair, what do you mean envy?"

Ragna furrowed his brows and followed Hajin's advice. Not like he had a choice anyway.

 "You wouldn't understand. Aah~ so refreshing... this place is really making me sleepy. It gives me a strange pleasant feeling."

Hajin moaned pleasantly, rotating the office chair to 360° as he closed his eyes with a smile.

At this moment, Elaina finally came back with a paper in her hand.

"That's because there's a formation in the room that makes the atmosphere comforting and good for relaxation."

"Oh right, here's your club form. You just have to fill this up and I'll relay it to the President for a review."
