The next day, the boss tried another method of harassing me.

It seemed like he hadn’t learned from his lesson the previous day.

"Since you’re new, I expect you to learn this as quickly as possible. This is the most basic work in our land development bureau, so this is something that you have to know how to do."

He made sure to throw his weight as he trained me, but I just took it all and focused on the work.

The work itself wasn’t that hard at all, it was just very time consuming since it required a lot of attention for details.

But for me, this was the kind of thing that I was familiar with.

In fact, it was actually easy because of my enhanced physical stats.

It was easy for me to pick out all of the different important details and summarize them as necessary. This was something that others took a long time with, but I was able to do this work in less than half the time.

With the skill that I demonstrated, the boss looked like he had swallowed a bitter pill.

It really looked like he had wanted to see me fail and was disappointed when this didn’t happen.

In fact, he had even tried to force it by giving me conflicting instructions, but there wasn’t anything that he could do to stop when.

When the boss realized this, it seemed like he had no choice but to give up.

After all, it would have been strange if he didn’t give up when all he was met with was failure.

But instead of completely giving up, it seemed like the boss was just choosing to use a different method.

That method came on the second day when he started teaching me even harder things.

"Since you’ve proven yourself so capable, it’s only natural that you would receive more responsibilities."

That was what the boss said, but the others had something else to say.

"That kind of work is only given to senior clerks and he’s forcing it onto someone who’s only on their third day here..."

Regardless of what was said, I didn’t show any reaction as I followed the instructions that the boss gave me.

It turned out that it was also easy.

Even though this was technically work that was supposed to be for senior workers, it wasn’t that hard for me because I could see the link that this had to the basics that I had been working on the other day.

The system that the prime minister had set up worked in a way that everything seemed to build on the foundations that had been set. Everything drew on the basic data and as long as one was able to connect the dots, it was easy to figure things out.

"How are you able to do this?"

Finally, it seemed like the boss just wasn’t able to hold it in anymore when he saw how easily I was organizing everything that had been given to me.

I didn’t answer this, I didn’t even acknowledge these words that had been said.

The only thing that I did was finish the work that had been given to me and asked, "Is there anything else?"

The boss’ face twisted the moment that he heard this, but he knew that his plan failed.

From that day forward, things became more and more complicated.

It seemed like the boss wasn’t even trying to hide his plans anymore with the way that he acted.

Every day, he gave me more and more work and the work kept growing in complexity.

Though they spoke in low voices, I was able to hear everything that they were saying.

From the gossip around us, I learned that he was basically passing on a higher level of work onto me. It increased each day, but it never surpassed a certain value since he was afraid of too much trouble being caused.

He wanted to cause trouble, but he was scared of crossing a certain line that would attract the wrong kind of attention.

At this point, it was already too late for him to stop since he was already in this deep.

At the same time, it didn’t help that he could hear everything that everyone around him was saying.

"He’s so handsome."

Those were the words that dug into his heart every time that he heard it, intentionally or unintentionally. Though in most cases, it was unintentionally since there weren’t many people that had good relationships with this boss.

There were those that brown nosed him, but most people actually hated this boss because of his habits.

Still, I just continued doing all of the work that had been assigned to me.

I found that as long as I could link it to the basic foundation that ran this department, it was quite easy to figure out how things worked. It didn’t matter how complicated things seemed, it always came back to the very foundation of the data.

"He’s even doing the director’s work..."

Once I heard this, I knew that things had reached a point where it was hard to come back from.

But even so, I didn’t stop since it was all useful to me.

It wasn’t as if I had been doing all of this without a word just because I was afraid of causing trouble.

It was more that I was doing all of this because there was actually something to learn from this.

What I learned was about foundations.

The system that the prime minister set up really was quite easy to use and that was all because of the solid foundation. It made things much easier to do since everything could be drawn from this foundation.

"This is something that just doesn’t apply to this system alone. It’s something that can be used in all kinds of different things."

Once work was finished, I didn’t hesitate to go back to my room to test this new discovery.
