Chapter 52 - Reward from Fan Xinglu!

Chapter 52 - Reward from Fan Xinglu!

After Claudia left, many people visited Luke one after another, especially those who had a good relationship with him.

However, this situation only lasted for two days because he was discharged the next day.

Despite having a whole month of stay, Luke did not hastily make arrangements for his "future matters."

He planned to go to the Festa Operating Committee first, apply for his championship reward, and then figure out the rest.

When he arrived at the office of the Festa Operating Committee, what surprised Luke a little was that the one receiving him was not Madiath Mesa, the chairman of the committee, but two senior members of the Operating Committee.

Typically, the reception of the champion of each "Festa" and the fulfillment of their wishes were handled by the committee chairman personally.

After all, granting wishes, though simple in theory, could be quite complicated in practice.

Although the reward for the champion of the "Festa" was a wish, in essence, it was just a commitment from the Integrated Enterprise Foundation.

The original intention was to "fulfill a wish within the permissible scope."

Most people understood this in their hearts, but over the years, there had been occasional "exceptions."

When encountering wishes that couldn't be realized or might not be guaranteed, as well as wishes that would not be granted, it was the responsibility of the Operating Committee chairman to explain to the winning contestant.

Because within the Operating Committee, only the chairman is qualified to make some "special commitments" on behalf of the Integrated Enterprise Foundation.

Moreover, throughout history, it has always been the chairman who receives the champion, but now, in Luke's case, it has been delegated to the senior members.

Doing so in this year's "Lindwurm," which has an exceptionally high level of significance, can be risky. If mishandled, it could easily become a subject of gossip.

Therefore, the two senior members of the Operating Committee who received Luke were extremely cautious from beginning to end.

They were afraid that any misstep might lead to a dispute with Luke, potentially resulting in an early end to their professional careers.

Fortunately, Luke had no intention of causing trouble, and the requests he made were quite simple.

This not only relieved the two senior members but also earned their gratitude.

Luke didn't care about their gratitude; what concerned him was why Madiath deliberately avoided him.

Was Madiath worried that Luke would discover something? Or did he have ulterior motives?

As for the release of Todo Seijiro, the father of Todo Kirin, it was soon decided.

Releasing someone wrongly imprisoned is not only something the Integrated Enterprise Foundation can do, but even these two committee members can achieve it as long as they are willing to leverage their connections.

On this basis, they also promised to provide the Todo family and Luke with a portion of financial compensation.

The wish of the "Festa" champion is actually a very flexible mechanism.

For example, in the original work, after the protagonist's team achieved victory in "Gryps," the wish made by Sasamiya Saya included the unlocking of advanced research equipment, support for research equipment, and a large amount of research funding.
