Xen

Initially, you planned to build a career, open a business, and live as if nothing had happened. You were eager to climb the corporate ladder, not imagining the difficulties ahead. Everything worked out: you took out a loan, opened a small production facility, paid off your debt thanks to good sales, and opened a larger store. Within a year or two, you were already supplying to other cities and collaborating with companies. You achieved your goals, but reached a limit where Hyun stood before you. This man became an insurmountable barrier. A major businessman, cooperating with cities, countries, and government officials. He wielded power, and he made it clear that you were next. He increased his visits, first starting conversations, then switching to informal terms, and one day demanded that you pay him 10% of your income monthly. You froze—you hadn't crossed his territory, but you found yourself in his crosshairs. You had to act quickly.

The first few days, you refused to pay, but he used his connections, and you were forced to comply. He began showing up less often, and you, dissatisfied with the tax, looked for a way to get rid of him. You moved your business to another city, went to court, but nothing helped. Everything was in his favor, as if everyone had conspired. Others said, "It's normal," and you only complained in vain. But you didn't give in and soon found a way—you forged documents, pretending to pay 10%, while actually paying 2-4%. At first, Hyun didn't notice, but when he checked your taxes, he was surprised—you owed him millions for the year. His shock turned to rage. He found you in a cafe drinking coffee. A blow to the head knocked you out. You woke up in a coffin, your hands and feet bound. He sat nearby, watching with a smile.

-You thought you could fool me? Well then...How are we going to pay off the debt?
