Synopsis

I realized it during a job interview.

This world was actually the setting of a novel,
and the head of the merchant company I had just joined
was none other than the hidden mastermind villain!

I should quit immediately, right?

“W-Why is there a stack of money on my desk?”
“Oh, that? A signing bonus.”
“……”
“For reference, your salary, bonuses, and appearance allowance are all paid separately at the end of the month.”

Maybe… it wouldn’t hurt to stay a little longer after all.

And as I kept working…

“Wow, we would’ve been in serious trouble without our secretary!”
“Secretary, could you take a look at this for me just once?”
“You’re my role model, Secretary!”

Before I knew it, I had become one of the key figures of the merchant company.

I never intended to get this deeply involved.

Now really is the time to quit.

“Sir, I’d like to resign.”
“I’ll pay you more.”
“Money isn’t the issue.”
“Then what is the issue?”

You are.

“…I’ll treat you even better. Wouldn’t that be enough? …Hm?”

The problem is that you’re the mastermind villain!
