“Me?” Vincent Wolf pointed at himself in surprise.
“Yeah, that’s right.” Carter grinned at Vincent, which made him feel a little creeped out.
“Carter, be careful with what you say next. This kid is under my and Master Winter’s protection!” Aiden Winter stared at Carter.
“What do you take me for!” Carter glanced at the three of Vincent, his smile growing wider. “Dear bro, consider joining our City Defense Team after graduation. We offer remarkable benefits—seven insurances and three golds, unlimited salary plus commissions, optional unit housing, among others. Not limited to quick promotion, start as a squad leader, unlimited use of Mysterious Realm, children get priority admission to key schools, extra Mysterious Realm quotas each month, and so on!”
Now Vincent understood that Carter was trying to recruit him in advance.
But this dialogue seemed a little familiar as if he had heard it somewhere…
Evan, hiding behind the three, instantly remembered the pie in the sky Vincent had promised him and felt frustrated.
“Are all humans this well off? They seem so lucky. Why are we Demon Beasts so pitiful? Not only can we not get enough food or warmth, but also our homes have been destroyed, and now we’re threatened by a human. Wuuwuu-
Seeing Evan, Vincent immediately understood that this was the set he had explained to Evan. However, the pie that Carter painted seemed to be bigger and tastier than the one he had painted.
But the present Vincent was different from his past self. In his previous life, he was fed with empty promises, but in this life, he would be the one making promises!
“Grandmaster Carter, I am still in high school. I will have to attend the Beast
Taming University after graduation. I appreciate your good intentions.”
“What, you’re still in high school!”
Carter was stunned. Could high schoolers nowadays withstand the Monarch in the Devil’s Domain? Which era is this?
He thought Vincent’s strength was so high that although he looked young, Carter assumed it was because Vincent had a baby face and guessed that he was a college student at most.
But what he thought was already freakish enough turned out to be even bolder. Who was he under?
“You look down on high school students? Well, Grandmaster Carter, how about you come to Vincent’s Security Services and become the captain? You’ll start as a major supervisor, managing all company affairs.”
“If you join the company, you would get shares, shorter working hours, and guaranteed better conditions than toiling away here every day under the sun and wind.”
“Look, now that I’m in high school, I can stand up to the Monarch. Wouldn’t I start directly as a Legendary Beast Master after graduating college and entering society? Investing a little at the beginning and having huge returns later, the return on investment is higher than Legendary Games.”
Carter laughed in astonishment.
“You little guy, you even started to recruit me. Do you think I’m that kind of person!”
Having said that, he quickly walked a few steps forward, covertly pulled out his phone and opened the business card mode of the communication software. He whispered to Vincent, “Boss, is what you said true?”
Quietly adding Carter as a friend, Vincent gave him a big thumbs-up:
“Guaranteed!”
Seeing that Vincent had added him as a friend, Carter put away his phone, rapidly stepped back, then waved his hand, shouting, “Pass!”
Vincent looked up. Something in the air flashed slightly, then went quiet.
“What was that?”
Vincent saw the two Grandmasters return to their flying mounts, so he hurriedly pulled Evan onto Dragon Town’s back.
“That was the Forbidden Airspace Domain, an extremely special domain-type skill that can make pet beasts incapable of flying unless they have reached a certain level.” Aiden Winter answered.
“Oh, no wonder they only put those things on the ground and didn’t wrap anything like iron nets or electric nets in the air. So, that’s why.”
Vincent looked at the vacant sky, which had been wide open a few minutes ago.
He had just been complaining about the lack of sufficient protective measures. Now he was instantly proven wrong.
After the three flew away, Carter instructed his pet beast to reactivate the Forbidden Airspace Domain.
A young subordinate hesitated and asked Carter.
“Captain, uh, I noticed a Charm Demon following the young man. It seemed to have come from the Devil’s Domain, do…do we need to intercept?”
“Hehe, young man, keep working hard.” Carter chuckled and patted the young man’s shoulder.
“Watch and learn more. I trust that you will understand before long.”
“Yes!”
The young subordinate leaned forward in surprise. However, after Carter left, he was still confused.
“Do we really not need to intercept?”
“Kid, it’s late now, do you want to come to my house for dinner?”
Shortly after taking off from the Clean Base, Brad Winter quickly called home while urging his flying mount to speed up, then separated from Vincent.
Once Brad Winter left, Aiden Winter flew beside Vincent and asked him.
“Grandpa Winter, no need, I have things to do at home.” Vincent tactfully refused.
Master Winter was the head of a family. Going home with him was bound to cause trouble. He didn’t want to have an uneasy meal.
“Alright then. I had prepared a two-meter-long giant lobster, a three-meter-long Colorful Dragon Carp, the treasured Poisonous Spiky Porcupine, Brocade River Shell Lady’s…”
Before Master Winter could finish, he heard Vincent immediately say, “But since it is an invitation from an elder, as a junior, how could I not show respect!”
“That’s great then. I will have them prepare it now.” Aiden Winter was overjoyed.
“They? Who?” Vincent was confused.
“The three candidates for the head of the Winter Family. All of them are extremely beautiful. They are well-known in Los Angeles. I will have the three of them accompany you then.”
“Woah, sorry Master Winter, I am feeling a bit of a stomach ache. I am afraid I can’t attend the dinner at your house. Next time, definitely!” Vincent patted Dragon Town. Dragon Town understood, the frequency of its wings increased, and in a blink of an eye, it had surpassed Aiden Winter’s Black Winged Bird, rushing towards the horizon.
“Damn, this damn kid, does he think that the candidates for the head of my Winter Family are not good enough for him? Hmm, it seems there is a bit of a gap indeed. But even if they aren’t a perfect fit, he could at least take a look!” Aiden Winter was so angry that he wanted to go up and beat Vincent up.
“No, I should think about how to reveal the relationship at the right time, or to get closer, or else what if I really beat him up and make him hate me?” Vincent, flying ahead of Aiden Winter, sighed in relief.
He didn’t want to have to be among the young ladies while having a meal.
Moreover, it seemed like Aiden Winter was setting him up for a blind date. The delicious food he had mentioned earlier was sugar-coated bullets. It’s likely he would be dead before he could even taste the sugar.
Besides.
Vincent currently had an important object to deal with—Evan. He had to place her in a safe place before he could do anything else.
Otherwise, if he had agreed to Aiden Winter, Vincent would have had to bring Evan along for the dinner. The scene would certainly be very awkward..contemporary romance
