Chapter 61: Master Rabbink Asked Trevon’s Help
Trevon used Scout skill again on his aunt.
[Name: Josephine McArthur]
[Age: 99 Years]
[Sex: Female]
[Species: Human]
[Potential: 37/63]
[Determination: 82]
[Cultivation Speed: 84]
[Loyalty: 86]
[Talent: Archery, Playing Music.]
[Ability: Wind and Fire Sword Combination 1st Level (Star), Flame Punch (Sky), Triple Punch (Sky), Soul Sonata (Sky), Great Wind Movement (Earth), Heaven and Hell Destruction Palm (Earth), Jade Body Tempering (Earth), 1-2-3 Saber Combo (Man), Roaring Dragon Punch (Man), Phoenix Finger Art (Man), Wind Piercing Spear 1st Level (Man), Great Defensive Earth (Man), McArthur Fingerbeam (Man), Gold Body Technique (Man), Soul Healing Great Meditation (Man), Shadow Eye (Man), Heaven Finger (Man), Qin Melody Attack Level 1 (Man), Triple Flute Ascending Heaven (Man), Shadow Steps (Man), Roaring Eagle Sword Combination 1st Level (Man), Triple Slash (Man).]
Josephine and Issabella watched Trevon. Trevon intentionally took some time to pretend that he was asking the master.
Master Rabbink always encouraged Trevon to Scout the ability information, but Trevon didn't know why. The panel was too long for him to care. Only if he fought with an opponent, he would care about those abilities.
"Aunty is a Middle Rank 2 warrior with the potential to reach..." Trevon stopped his word. "Does Aunty really want to know the answer? Raina didn't like when she heard her limit."
Josephine felt doubtful. She was afraid to hear an unsatisfactory answer. On the other hand, she was also curious about her potential.
"It wouldn't affect me. I will still train to Reach Rank 3." The female elder declared. For most McArthur family members, reaching Rank 3 was the goal. It was almost impossible to reach Rank 4.
"Aunty will. Rank 3 is no big deal for a beautiful lady like Aunty." Trevon stopped at that. Not everyone was as confident as Raina. Perhaps, Raina also thought Trevon was not serious when he asked her.
"My nephew starts to become very smart." Josephine felt happy with the answer. Her dream was to reach Rank 3. A Rank 3 warrior could decide his or her own fate in Heavenly Phoenix.
"My aunt has a determination score of eighty-two, cultivation speed of eighty-four, and loyalty of eighty-six." Trevon continued.
"Are those good numbers?" Josephine asked.
"Yes, the largest score is one hundred. If my aunt was in an academy, my aunt would be the class ace." Trevon said. It was hard to reach eighty in the academy. The lazy young master could reach a high score because of his cultivation. All cultivators could easily reach that score. Meanwhile, only very smart common people could reach that.
"So, where is my reward for acing my class?" Josephine teased Trevon.
"I will tell Aunty's talent. Aunt Josephine is good at Archery and Playing Music." Trevon smartly avoided the topic. Purchasing another armguard was expensive.
Josephine felt surprised. She didn't know that she had a talent for archery. As one of Issabella's daughters, she knew she good at playing music. It was something that most of Issabella's daughters and sons were good.
"I have never practiced archery." Josephine said. Similar to Jonathan, she didn't prefer it. Archery wasn't as popular as melee fighting. It was because most Rank 2 cultivators could move very fast. Therefore, archery was considered useless in a high-rank battle.
"How about Aunty trying it?" Trevon suggested.
"You should try. Perhaps you could find archery as a relaxation." Issabella agreed with Trevon.
"I will think about it."
"Then about aunt's martial arts." Trevon started to read the long panel. The blue panel was there as long as Trevon willed it.
[Ability: Wind and Fire... Triple Slash (Man)]
Trevon saw those twenty-two martial arts. "Aunty learned Wind and Fire Sword Combination 1st Level at Star level, Flame Punch at Sky level, Triple Punch at Sky level... and Triple Slash at Man level." Trevon completely said all the martial arts learned by his aunt.
[She is really a martial art fanatic.] Trevon thought.
Most cultivators didn't learn that many. They would focus on the martial arts that they were good at. Most warriors preferred to practice martial arts after they maximized their potential. Their time was better invested for cultivation. With a higher rank, a warrior could use even more high-rank martial arts.
Nevertheless, the strongest warriors usually those fanatics. A common knowledge in the cultivator world was the fanatics. They would have many methods to win a fight. Of course, one's mastery of those arts was important. Even if a powerful Rank 4 warrior used a Man-level mastery Primary Rank 1 martial art, he would find only a few percentages of the effects could be shown.
Josephine was left speechless with what Trevon told her. He had managed to know all her martial arts. In a battle, people who knew their enemy's martial arts would have a big advantage. They could plan some counterattack when the enemy used certain martial arts.
[How does he know that?] The female elder surprised.
"Did Trevon manage to say all of your martial arts?" Issabella looked into her daughter, she could see the surprised on her daughter's face. "It can't be..."
"Trevon had said the martial arts that I had never used in a long time. He also said a martial art that I had just recently practiced for fun."
"Those were Master Creator's words. I only repeat his answer." Trevon didn't want to be seen as a freak. Besides, he felt it was better to have a strong "hidden" grandpa like in those web novels.
Josephine started to experience the power of Master Creator. [He is very powerful.] Josephine thought.
"Is he one of those mystical martial art users?" Josephine asked.
Trevon knew what his aunt meant. In this world of the martial artist, there were people who had special arts that other people didn't understand. People would call those arts as mystical martial arts. Those arts usually didn't deal attack or increase on defense or speed.
"I think he could be considered one." Trevon said. The term was too confusing. Everything was martial arts.
"It isn't my fault. This Rabbink prefers to categorize them in different terms. For example, they were ability, skill, superpower, magic, and more. Your God is a very crazy martial artist maniac. He wanted to term all as martial arts in his universes. Therefore, he taught all his first creatures that everything was a martial art." Master Rabbink started to open a bit of this universe's secret.
Trevon could imagine the God based on Master Rabbink's words. [It is no wonder martial arts are very important in this world. Trevon could see many small martial academies even in a small town.]
While Trevon was hearing Master Rabbink's explanation, Issabella felt a bit more confident to reach Rank 4. [The Creator could see all of my daughter's martial arts. His capability to see one's potential must be correct.]
"What about my beloved grandson?" Issabella asked Trevon.
"Aih..." Trevon laughed. He couldn't read his own status. Master Rabbink also said his number was hidden. It was heaven's secret. This was the power of an apprentice God. His destiny would be hidden from other people. While Master Rabbink could read Trevon's status, the Rabbink had never told him the detail.
"I could only reach Rank 2. Hahaha." Trevon laughed. He didn't want to be considered as a genius. The lazy young master just wanted to be a common elder at best. He wanted to be an elder who didn't need to do anything but could party all days.
[Perhaps a recruitment elder so I could visit those girls only academies and sects. Hwehwehwe.] Trevon started to imagine things.
They continued their discussion. His grandmother and his aunt often asked Trevon about a random passerby. Trevon just read his Scout skill panels. Most of the passersby were common people. Sometimes, Trevon could find some cultivators from other cultivation families. Sometimes they also find some rogue cultivators.
Trevon, Josephine, and Issabella didn't plan to recruit those random people. The most important was their desire to work for their family. It was a different reason if they managed to find some talented kids. Young kids could be taught about the loyalty to their family.
They continued their time together. Issabella and Josephine watched Trevon trained a friendly fruit merchant. As always, a fruit merchant practiced running until he was exhausted.
Most merchants often had an unhealthy body in the first place. They were richer than most common people and ate a lot. However, they were too busy with business to practice. As a good fellow human, he had to help those in need of training.
Trevon returned those fruits back to the merchant. He didn't need to eat that many fruits in a day.
Trevon visited Grand Master Vale's house for some painting time. Aya had been waiting for Trevon there. The girl had known some people in Grand Master Vale's house. She even became friend with Little Rose. Both of them were Trevon's painting victims.
"Welcome, Young Master!" Aya greets Trevon in the Grand Master Vale's terrace.
"You are Aya, right?" Issabella saw the girl more carefully. [She is a bit plain. Trevon wouldn't like her.] She knew Trevon's type.
In the beginning, she thought the girl was a lucky one who managed to seduce her grandson. After Trevon told her that this girl had the talent to reach Rank 3 warrior, she saw the girl from a different perspective.
"Yes, Young Lady." Aya was told that the lady was Trevon's sister.
"Do you want to go to McArthur's family village? McArthur family would teach you more than what Trevon could." Issabella enticed Aya.
"Grandma! She is my maid!" Trevon complained. [I shouldn't tell her talent to anyone in the future.]
"..." Aya timidly looked into Trevon. She preferred to be low-profile. Since she was in the gang, she had been afraid to attract attention.
"I am only thinking what best for her. It isn't cheap to provide cultivation resources for a Rank 2 warrior." Issabella said.
Trevon agreed on this. However, he knew Aya had a potential to be a Rank 4 cultivator. Only he had a cultivation technique for a Rank 4 warrior in the family. "She is contracted to me." Trevon argued.
"The family would reward you fairly. I will request to triple your allowance."
"She isn't for sale. Aya isn't my slave." Trevon complained. [No. Who would sell a Rank 4 subordinate? With Master Rabbink's convenience store I had managed to earn enough money. A mere three thousand spirit stones per month wouldn't enough to entice me. If you could grab Olivia for me, I might consider this. Hwehwehwe.] Trevon talked to himself. The young master was smart enough not to bargain with his grandma.
Aya felt touched when she heard Trevon's word. It was lucky she couldn't hear Trevon's mind.
Issabella understood Trevon would get a huge number from Redwood Family. He might be not interested in some small allowance. "I know. She isn't your slave. The family would only continue the contract. Aya will be treated fairly." Issabella had planned to marry the girl to Trevon. Especially if the girl managed to reach Rank 3 like what Trevon said.
Issabella smiled at Aya. "What do you think Aya?"
Aya was a bit afraid. [She is so beautiful.] Even as a girl, she was bewitched by Issabella's beauty.
Aya knew Trevon's grandmother was someone very important. She had seen the powerful warriors who came to Trevon's house. The girl also saw the expensive robes that she wore. While she didn't know that it was a spirit robe, the materials were very soft and gave her a cool sensation.
"You will get a huge money. More than this child could give. I will increase your salary equal to a Rank 2 warrior as soon as you agree." Issabella tried to entice the girl.
Trevon knew he couldn't win in the financial side. The family had far more money than he could imagine. He had seen his grandfather purchased an artifact worth one billion spirit stones in an auction.
[These elder bullied the younger generation.] Trevon thought. Normally an elder wouldn't fight with a younger generation treasure. It was below their dignity. It was also discouraged by the family. They didn't want their future pillars to be wary of the current pillars. Each had their own lucky chances.
"I am sorry, Madam." Aya bowed. "I owe the thing I have to Young Master Trevon."
"Aren't you afraid that he would do bad things you?" Issabella changed into a scaring tactic.
[What? That is not the way to talk about your own grandson, Grandma!] Trevon screamed in his heart. This old fox would use any method to get her goal.
Aya was a bit afraid, but she believed her young master. Trevon had many chances to do bad things to her if he wanted. Being born in the gang, she was more mature than her age. "No, Madam. Young Master Trevon had treated this maid fairly."
Trevon felt happy. [I will invest in Aya a lot. She is very loyal. Hahaha.]
Trevon started to feel he had turned into a charismatic young master. It was the happiness of a leader to have a loyal subordinate. He took a fan and fanned himself.
Josephine only shook her head, seeing her immature nephew.
Issabella also knew about the girl's loyalty. [She is a good seedling. Having her is Trevon's lucky chance.]
"Well, it seems that you have a high aspiration." Issabella said. She tried another method.
Trevon didn't understand. "What aspiration?" He thought Aya was a timid girl. She had already felt happy with good foods and a good house.
"Do you admit you want to be with my grandson so you could seduce him? I have to admit it isn't that hard." Issabella made a harsh accusation. This would be a win-win question for her. If she stayed with Trevon, that meant she admitted that she wanted to be Trevon's wife. On the other hand, if she didn't stay, Issabella could take her to the family village. The family would obtain a potential Rank 3 warrior.
"I... didn't dare." Aya was afraid. She kneeled.
"If you didn't want to seduce my grandson, why didn't you accept my invitation? You could still help Trevon." The old fox intentionally jumped the conclusion. She smirked like a detective which managed to find a thief.
"Hey! That is unfair, Grandmother." Trevon could feel where his grandmother wanted to bring the conversation. He might lose the girl if this was going on.
"Aih! Young people. Now my grandson even chose his lover over his grandmother." Issabella teased Trevon. "Look! Josephine, love is blind." The beautiful grandmother pretended to be sad.
"..." Trevon didn't want to answer again. Everyone in the inner circle of the family knew it was hard to debate with his grandmother.
Aya could only timidly lower her head. She didn't dare to see other people.
Issabella smiled while she couldn't get the girl, she could instill some idea in the girl's head.
"At least try to get in the good book of Trevon's fiancée." Issabella said. "If you managed to do that, you could become Trevon's concubine."
Aya's face turned redder. She had known this from the maid lesson. This knowledge was an informal lesson from the veteran maids to the new kids.
As a maid, the veteran maids told about her regret. At her young age, she didn't manage to get in the good book of her young lady. While she managed to gain the attention of her young master, her young lady selected other maids to be her young master's concubines.
Most young masters when they married their fiancée, the wife would also bring some personal maids as the concubines. The selected maids were usually the ones who were in the young lady's side.
This process was to ensure the wife's future power in the young master's harem. If most members of the harem were under the side of the lady, the first wife would have some allies when she competed with new wives or concubines.
"Mom! You should not tease the young people." Josephine knew. His mother had given her some codes to stop the act. Planting the idea was enough. If her grandson had a Rank 3 concubines, his future was secured.
"They are not fun. They are so serious." Issabella sighed.
Aya turned even redder while Trevon was getting some ideas. However, the young master had made his promise. He was a person that held his promises very highly.
"Show us your paintings!" Issabella said. The grand elder changed the topic. She came to this place to see Trevon's paintings.
"This is not fun Grandma." Trevon had felt so devastated. He felt he talked too much. [This is dangerous.]
The young kid finally knew why those heroes in the web novels with a cheat always stupidly hid it from their family. Luckily, he only shared what could be shared.
Trevon needed the family support to get some revenue from selling artifacts or light ball manuals. He also wished to get bigger recognition to recruit people to support his Job missions. As a common young master in the family, he wouldn't be able to support every talented person he found.
Trevon led the way. He took his grandmother and aunt to the painting studio. The young master proudly showed his paintings.
"You only drew girls?" Josephine asked. She only saw Little Aya and a few unknown beautiful girls.
"I practiced drawing the facial expression." Trevon defended his paintings. "I couldn't see a man's face for too long." It wasn't a lie for Trevon.
"I have a better chance of getting better after drawing beautiful ladies." He looked into his drawing of Margareth and Cecillia.
"Hm... You should draw your grandma then!" Issabella was always confident of her beauty. "I will show it to your grandpa."
"Of course, Grandma!" Trevon wouldn't reject the chance to draw his grandmother. Her beauty was the top of the tops in Heavenly Phoenix. He believed he could reach another level in his painting with her as his model.
Since Aya didn't need to be the model, she served the tea to Trevon, Josephine, and Issabella.
Trevon completed the painting two hours later. He had managed to practice the techniques that Grand Master Vale asked as his homework.
[I finally reach Great Painter.] Trevon felt proud of his painting. If Trevon wanted he could do it. It wasn't easy to become a Master, and he was a Master in seven different professions. Since he enjoyed painting the Byeontae way, he managed to reach the level faster.
[I am a genius. Hahaha.] Trevon felt smug when he saw his final painting.
"Not Bad!" Issabella took the painting from the happy Trevon. She admired her own beauty.
The young master couldn't enjoy his painting for long. "Eh?" He wanted to show off in front of other Redwood young masters and ladies.
"I am not this fat!" Issabella suddenly told Trevon. She pointed to her legs in the painting. The beautiful Grand Elder felt Trevon had made her a bit fatter in the picture. His grandmother continued to complain to Trevon.
"Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink enjoyed seeing Issabella complained to Trevon. It took some wings from God knew where.
Issabella managed to complain over a hundred parts of the painting. She asked to be slimmer, cuter, and many more.
Trevon really wanted to cry. Luckily, Josephine saved Trevon from his own grandmother. She finally took the painting to her storage ring. Trevon hadn't the chance to borrow the painting.
They returned to Trevon's house at 23.00. Trevon went to collect the boxes from Uncle Bow.
Aya returned to her own room. She was diligent in her cultivation. The girl knew that was the way for her future. Jack was a good example for her. He was very serious about cultivation.
"These are boxes for Master Creator." Trevon said to his grandmother and aunt. "He loves to collect broken artifact and repair them."
"Hey! It is you who collect them." Master Rabbink complained. While it was a good grandpa, Trevon used him too brazenly. [How could I explain to my other students if the celestial readers got the image of a garbage collector?]
"Why does he need those broken artifacts?" Josephine wondered. [This master is too strange. He is very powerful, but he wants to collect broken pieces and looks money. Is he really a master?]
"Your Aunt even questioned my credibility." Master Rabbink felt frustrated. Trevon made it lost face in front of his blood relatives.
"He could repair them. The master would sell those repaired products." Trevon said.
"Show me the products!" Issabella asked. Money wasn't a problem for her.
"I will ask him the products later." Trevon said. He couldn't suddenly show the repaired items.
Trevon asked Jonathan to take the boxes to his own room.
Trevon didn't dare to show the troublemeter. He was afraid he would send away from the family because of the troubles that he might call. It was his secret.
"Do you want to sleep with your grandma like when you were this small?" Issabella teased Trevon. She made a guess about Trevon's height when he was around three years old.
Trevon wanted to sleep with her. He wouldn't dare to do the stupid things, but his grandmother often gave him some gift when they slept together.
However, he heard something from Master Rabbink. It was an offer that he couldn't reject.
Rejected by Trevon, Issabella decided to stay in the same room with Josephine. The mother and daughter pair had some discussions to do. They rarely met since both often secluded themselves in each's cultivation.
Trevon entered his own room. "You asked for my help, Rabbink?" [Hahaha.] Trevon laughed in his heart. [You have to pay with a big reward.] Trevon could remember all unreasonable requests from the Rabbink.
After a long time, finally it was Master Rabbink's turn to ask for his help.
"So, I could choose my own reward?" Trevon felt happy. He had learned from many web novels.
"As long as It isn't too OP." Master Rabbink said.
"Give me a 50-Chapter Plot Armor and a hundred of the complete joining cultivation techniques!" Trevon requested.
[Plot Armor would guarantee my safety during the beast waves. While that technique. Hwehwehwe.] He had read multiple main characters in the web novel survived the impossible using plot armor. The other was his dream cultivation technique.
"What?" Master Rabbink complained. A Plot Armor would reduce the fun of its novel. "Plot Armor is one of the most expensive items. That couldn't do. Fifty chapter is too long."
"You can give me a short one and the techniques." Trevon laughed.
Master Rabbink wanted to reject. However, he wanted to make a unique part for its novel's introduction.
"Fine. You can pick either a 5-paragraph plot armor or a few top joining techniques." Master Rabbink gave up.
"I want both of them." Trevon felt Master Rabbink's desperation. He had the bargaining power. [Hahaha.]
"A 3-paragraph plot armor and an unlock for one of the most powerful joining techniques. It is final." Master Rabbink said its final offers. It was in losing position. [Hopefully, it wouldn't change the story too much.]
"Deal! What is your request? Remember! If it is too dangerous, I will still get half the reward even if I reject." Trevon said the end of his negotiation before.
"It is totally safe." Master Rabbink said. It took a camera.
"What is that?" Trevon asked. He felt afraid of the strange items that looked like a small magic cannon.
"It is an artifact based on your civilization term. It could record people."
Trevon didn't know anything, but it seemed powerful. He knew there was an app called Camera in the tablet. The curious young master had never tried the apps since it was blocked by Master Rabbink. Also, the white rabbit app was removed from the tablet. Master Rabbink said that it had completed the research.
"Here wear this!" Master Rabbink gave Trevon a strange black and white robe.
"What is this?"
"Tuxedo." Master Rabbink said. "It is the dress code for the handsome male Celestial Readers in my world."
Trevon wanted to try it. As the trendiest young master in Bluestar, he wanted to wear what Celestial Readers used to look good.
"It is inconvenient!" Trevon complained. It was unlike his own robe. The tuxedo tightly pressed his body and showed his perfect cultivator body.
"Just wear it! You will look good to the celestial readers. Wear that if you want more female fans!" Master Rabbink made Trevon couldn't refuse.
[I want more female fans. Hahaha.]
Master Rabbink also took a stack of cards. "This is a stack of card that you need to ask me. Just read the questions on the card. I have prepared everything." Master Rabbink created a portal. It kicked Trevon into the portal.
"Hey! I haven't prepared...!!!" Trevon could only scream. Trevon entered a strange place. It was similar to his first time in his universe. Only a slab of land and endless dark sky.
"It is a magical space that I temporarily made!" Master Rabbink proudly said. Trevon saw a big stage in the center of the land. It was similar to the stage in the theater, but Master Rabbink's stage was dark and shinier. He could smell the relaxing flower scents sprayed by the Rabbink.
"We will do a rehearsal for Introduction!" Master Rabbink said. It placed the camera and activated the lighting and sound system. The stage turned bright.
"Now try to read the text!" Master Rabbink ordered. They finally rehearsed for a few times, until Master Rabbit felt satisfied.
"Is this the last?" Trevon drank a glass of clear water. He had spoken for thirty minutes. This took his novel reading time.
"We will do it for real this time." Master Rabbink said. It hid in the dark sky while Trevon left the stage.
"Welcome to the Introduction!"
