Chapter 10: The Decision After saying this, Minos left the room and went to the home of the other student, Alison. She lived 10 minutes from the academy with her family. While Minos was leaving, director Lionel tried to convince those responsible for Lee and Ralf not to accept the young Stuart's offer. "Railan, Gryff, the decision is up to you. Our Gill family would never force anyone to join us. But honestly, I don't see how this brat can be better than us for your families. If he has so much wealth to offer a Black-grade cultivation technique, then what is he doing here?" "Honestly, I know a little about that boy's past. Although his father was a Spiritual King, he was still a subordinate to the royal family. And as far as I know, these subordinates only receive two Black-grade techniques, which are not normally specialized in cultivation." "So, if he has the two techniques that his father left behind and a cultivation technique, all of them Black-grade, then why not sell one of these techniques and continue to grow stronger in a region rich in spiritual energy? Why waste his time at this place?" "Not to mention that he has no past here in the Black Plain. I don't know what he wants to do, but I think it's too risky. I advise you not to hear that boy's words." Lionel said everything he thought and knew in an attempt to prevent his family from losing those two boys. Despite being a developing family in the central region of the Brown Kingdom, the Gill family was not yet as the great noble families in the capital. So, they needed talented members from outside the family to keep its growing. They had then started to build and partner with spiritual academies in poorer places in an attempt to get new members for their family. However, they would not force the situation if someone changed their minds and returned the investment. Of course, only for those who haven't yet entered the family and haven't received their techniques. Otherwise, it would be impossible. They talked for a few more minutes and then left. Of the two, although neither was confident in Minos, Gryff was still very curious about the young man's complete offer. Railan, on the other hand, was convinced it wouldn't be worth it to stay in this place. He didn't even want to know what kind of beautiful words Minos could say to him. … Minos and his two guards finally arrived in front of a small house after walking for a few minutes. It was a house with only the first floor, it was completely blue and had only one window on the side of the street. But it looked well cared for, giving the impression that the owners struggled to maintain a certain quality. The young ruler then knocked on the front door. Pa! Pa! Pa! Then, a girl who looked about 10-years-old, with black hair tied in a ponytail, opened the door and screamed. "Mom, we have a visitor." It wasn't long before a middle-aged woman came running to the door. She had a beauty that could be considered good and a well-developed body, black hair, and a gentle look. She then replied. "May I know the reason for your visit?" Minos then replied with a smile on his face. "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Tasia. I'm Minos Stuart. I'm here to talk about the future of your daughter, Alison. I believe that Mia had communicated about this before." "Ah! So, it's the young master Stuart. Please come in. My husband is in the room. We can talk about it there." She replied with a smile on her face. Soon after, Minos met Pollo, Tasia's husband, and Alison's father. He was a tall man, who looked to be in his 40s, and he didn't even have a hair on his head. It wasn't long before they started arguing about the main subject. Pollo then asked. "So, young man, why should I risk my daughter's future by making her stay here?" Minos then started to put all his cards on the table. "Well, before I came here, it would be stupid to throw away the chance to go to a better place. But now it's different. I made it possible to cultivate the lands of the Black Plain, which you will be able to see with your own eyes in less than a month when the plants are big enough for everyone in the city to notice the change, as well as the spiritual energy of the Black Plain, will begin to increase in 10 years." "Thus, I have already solved the two main problems in the region. It's only a matter of time before the region develops." Minos then continued. "But this point is not the main point. As long as your daughter is accepted by a noble family, she will become a subordinate and will receive resources. You may not know this, but my father was a subordinate to the Brown Kingdom royal family, which is the most well-developed family in this realm." "However, in this family, subordinates like my father would receive at most two Black-grade techniques, which could not be a cultivation technique. They do this to maintain a higher cultivation speed among the original members of the family. And these techniques can also only be acquired after many years of service." "In addition, it also provides a salary equivalent to their cultivation stage, which ranges from 20 low-grade crystals to 10 medium-grade crystals per month, respectively for Body Foundation and Spiritual King." "And they don't give anything to their subordinates' family." Then Minos looked seriously at the man and woman in front of him and said. "I offer a Black-grade technique that specializes in cultivation at the moment she reaches the age to start cultivating. I also guarantee that all the techniques she will receive are, at least, Black-grade. And depending on the services she can provide, there is a possibility that she will be rewarded with a higher degree." "I will also offer a payment ranging from 50 low-grade spiritual crystals to 50 medium-grade crystals per month, if she reaches the level of a Spiritual King, or higher than that, depending on the stage of cultivation she is in." "And there possibilities that the two of you could also be helped in the future. Depending on your daughter's performance, I may even be able to help you reach level 69 during your lives. But I can't help you getting pass that, as someone with Blue talent can reach this level at most, using special means." In this world, Blue talent meant that if someone had the time, then reaching level 29 was a certainty. From there, that person would have more than 50% to move on to the next step. Within the stages, there were no bottlenecks, so a person who reached a certain stage could reach the peak of it if they continued to cultivate. For reaches the 5th stage, the chances were less than 20%, if there was no help from special pills or medicines. And from there, it would be necessary for special resources to be used. But there was also a limit. To get an idea, with the talents White, Blue, Black, Silver, and Golden, with special items someone could reach the stages, respectively, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 11th. After finishing speaking, Minos then waited for Alison's parents to respond. "This… Do you really have the ability to do these things? I believe that not even King Brown could promise that!" Pollo said with an incomprehensible face. After that, Minos showed him a silver scroll. It was an attack technique classified in Silver-grade!! After seeing this, Pollo was incredibly amazed. This young man could take out a legendary technique like that! It was like he was showing something very ordinary. Although Pollo has never seen techniques so well classified, in this world, anyone would know the degree of a technique just by looking at it once. This is because the techniques kept a certain spirituality within it. After returning the scroll to Minos, Pollo and his family were determined that this young man could definitely do the things he promised. It was not long before they agreed to let their daughter join Minos' forces. Soon after, Minos told them to take their daughter to the mansion as soon as she turns 10, which would happen in the next few weeks. Minos then returned to his home after saying goodbye. ... And so, an entire week went by. Minos had trained as hard as he could on those days, reaching level 8. In this period, the 3 hectares were prepared, and the crops were already growing in the soil. Today, Minos finally received a visit from Gryff, the responsible for Lee. Gryff was very curious to know what Minos' offer would be, and depending on how good it was, Lee could also end up joining the forces of the young Stuart.
