**One Kick Girl — Chapter 194:
"Strategy Reset (Panic in a Suit)"**
Executive chaos • Vision whiplash • Raon vs the sound of goals changing
1. The Reset Nobody Asked For
The invite arrived stamped URGENT.
Subject:
Strategy Reset
Duration:
45 minutes
Raon stared.
"…Didn't we just make a strategy?"
Shion nodded.
"Yes. That's why it must be destroyed."
2. The Slide With the New North Star
Slide one appeared.
Our New Direction
Raon leaned in.
"…What happened to the old one?"
Shion whispered, "It expired."
3. Executive Energy Enters the Room
A senior figure joined.
Camera on.
Suit immaculate.
Eyes wild.
"We need to be agile," they said.
Raon whispered, "They're scared."
"Yes," Shion replied. "Something went wrong upstream."
4. The Vocabulary Shift
Words began changing.
• "Roadmap" → "Journey"
• "Plan" → "Experiment"
• "Deadline" → "Milestone-ish"
Raon felt dizzy.
"They're removing responsibility."
"They're buying time," Shion corrected.
5. The Question That Shouldn't Be Asked
"So," the executive continued,
"if we were to start from zero today…"
Raon shot up.
"We'd still have bills!"
Shion pulled her down.
6. The Strategy That Isn't One
Slide after slide of abstractions.
Circles. Arrows. Infinity symbols.
No dates.
No owners.
Raon squinted.
"Is that… a vibe map?"
"Yes," Shion said.
"A fear response rendered in PowerPoint."
7. Shion Tests Reality
Shion unmuted.
"Could you clarify what specifically changes from our current plan?"
The executive smiled tightly.
"Well, it's more about mindset."
Raon's soul exited her body.
8. The Reset That Resets Nothing
"So we'll continue execution," the exec concluded,
"but with this new lens."
Raon whispered.
"So… nothing changes."
Shion nodded. "Except the blame later."
9. Raon's Rage Peaks
Raon clenched her fists.
"All this talk. No action."
Shion met her eyes.
"This is action—for them."
Raon deflated.
"…I hate it."
10. The Closing Line
The executive smiled again.
"Let's regroup in two weeks and see where we are."
Raon screamed.
Shion muted her mic just in time.
11. Aftermath Email (Predictable)
Great energy today!
Excited about the reset.
Raon whispered.
"They're excited because they escaped."
Shion closed her laptop.
"Yes."
12. Post-Credit Alarm
A final notification appeared.
Subject:
All Hands
Raon froze.
"…That's bad, right?"
Shion stood.
"That's when the truth is officially hidden."
