The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]

Since the other managed to become his housekeeper, it meant that Leland did a thorough background check on the other. Just passing Leland's standard showed that the other not only didn't have any criminal record, he also had a good personality. That already checked the first requirement Wulfric was looking for. After all, the president of Aster's fan club shouldn't have a shitty personality.

The next one was making sure that the other was a genuine fan of Aster. That one was easy to check. After looking at Samuel's [Cyberspace] account, he found out that other only started being a fan of Aster after the Silver Moon Awards. All his posts after that were all about Aster.

They were all positive, mostly praising how beautiful Aster was and how good he was at acting. Not only that, Samuel also made a lot of good edits. From Aster's appearance in [The Sleeping God] to his scenes in [The Great War], even the one where he only guested for an episode. There were also edits of his variety show appearances, interviews, and advertisements that he took part in.

Because of how good those edits were, Wulfric even downloaded all of them. One of his favorites was the EMMA perfume ad that Aster did. The edit Samuel did of that turned out so pretty that Wulfric had to make it his Terminal's wallpaper.

Having crossed two items off his checklist, the only thing left was to confirm whether Samuel could be trusted with the role of Aster's fan club president. And the best way to do that was to speak to him. Not through [Cyberspace], but in person.

He could still remember that conversation. Not because it was very memorable, just because it was about Aster.

Wulfric looked at the big man standing in front of him. After much deliberation, he finally called the other to his study. At a quick glance, Samuel Lewis seemed very at ease. As if he wasn't worried about why his boss had called him. But if one looked at him closely, they would see the trembling of his fingertips. Showing that he wasn't as calm as he wanted to appear.

He had to hand it to him for trying, though. Well, if he had been his housekeeper for three years, that meant he had guts at least. That's the longest a housekeeper had stayed without getting fired or directly resigning.

"May I ask why you called me, General?" the other asked. He would give him another point for addressing him as 'general', not as 'your highness'. "Did I perhaps do something wrong?"

"No, your handle name in [Cyberspace] is @muscledbubblegum, correct?"

Samuel's face showed confusion, as if he didn't understand what Wulfric was asking. Or how did he even know about that. "Yes?"

"And you're also a fan of Aster, right?"

"Yes?"

Wulfric frowned. "Why do you always answer with just 'yes'? Is that the only word you know?"

"I-I'm sorry!" Samuel quickly apologized. But after bowing his head, he still raised it and asked tentatively, "But General, I'm really confused right now. So, I can only say 'yes'. Can you perhaps tell me what this is all about? And if you're talking about the actor, Astrid Townsend, yes, I'm a big fan."

Wulfric raised an eyebrow. He thought the other would immediately grovel and ask for forgiveness. But to quickly recover like this, that's a good sign.

"Then let me get straight to the point," he said. "What I'm about to tell you next should forever remain in this room."

He saw Samuel gulp. "Yes, General! I swear on my life, I won't tell anyone about this, ever!"

"Good. Then, listen carefully." Wulfric looked at the other with the most serious expression and continued, "I have a [Cyberspace] account with the name 'White Wolf', and my handle is @astridsnumber1fan."

Samuel initially looked confused by what he said. But when it finally registered, his eyes widened to the extreme, his mouth hung open, and his entire expression became almost cartoonishly exaggerated.

"WHAT???"

After the initial 'mental breakdown' that Samuel Lewis had, the two of them were finally able to talk about the real purpose of calling the other to the study. At first, Samuel seemed to be still in shock, and he couldn't understand what Wulfric was saying. They were only able to really talk after the other got over the shock.

And then Wulfric spent the next hour convincing the other to become the president of Aster's fan club. It took that long because Samuel didn't think that he deserved such a position. But with Wulfric's convincing (forceful) power, the other finally agreed.

After the other agreed, they then discussed how Samuel would do his job as the club president. First, he should update Wulfric on everything that happened in the club, from activities and events to member feedback and any issues that would arise.

Of course, he would compensate him for all the work he would do. The other declined at first, but Wulfric insisted. So, Samuel couldn't really do anything but agree.

After some manipulation here and there, Wulfric was finally able to put Samuel as the president of the fan club.

However, at the moment, the fan club issue was not his main concern. His sole focus right now was figuring out how to help Aster.

Wulfric couldn't help Aster until Aster informed his parents and the Grimaldis about him, so it would likely be awhile before he could truly offer his assistance.

He could understand Aster's position, though. With Wulfric's bad reputation, it was no wonder that Aster was having trouble telling his family about him.

If before, he didn't really care about how others thought of him, but being in love with Aster was slowly changing that. Of course, it only applied to the people important to Aster.

The rest? He still didn't give a damn.
