Chapter 29: Bad guys always have an easier time with women than you do
"Agreed, but I cannot offer three hundred million dollars; I can provide a maximum of eighty million. Furthermore, should you fail to meet my expectations, I reserve the right to dismiss you at any time." Surprisingly, it was the tall Western woman who accepted the wolf king's terms. Though their leader's expression was sour, he did not object, tacitly accepting the wolf king's conditions.
"I require a wish fruit and a martial arts-related card or treasure!" After I slowly articulated my demands, the leader immediately responded, "Deal! So, two of you will join us, and we will set off tomorrow morning." I hesitated slightly before saying, "Isn't tomorrow the day for assessing the training results from the past few days? Moreover, we should be starting the third project soon, right?" This time, Jack interjected, "King! You may not know this, but the training schedule has already been announced. Tomorrow morning, after we evaluate everyone's training results, we will proceed directly to the third training session, which involves hunting some magical beasts on Devil Island to accumulate enough achievements!"
"Accumulate achievements?"
"Exactly! One thousand giant spider monsters, fifty night women, fifty cave hellhounds, ten swamp dragons, twenty thunderbirds, and five minor demon hunters!"
"What the hell! Is that bald bastard instructor trying to turn this into a slaughterhouse? Even if he owned a chain of supermarkets, he wouldn't need that much meat!" Jack spread his hands and shook his head elegantly, choosing not to echo my derogatory remarks.
"That's the plan. After we complete the assessment tomorrow, we will set off together to search for that treasure. Along the way, we might as well slay some monsters to bolster our achievements, and we are quite interested in this mercenary training project as it provides an opportunity to challenge our limits." It was still the tall Western woman speaking. I shrugged and pointed to the wolf king, stating, "Wolf King!" Then I pointed to myself, declaring, "I am Wang Lin." I gestured to Bai Jingzhenfu and Jack, "The other two are Bai Jingzhenfu and Jack; you should introduce yourselves as well. We will all join rather than just two of us. There is no conflict in accumulating achievements, except when danger arises..."
The tall Western woman gestured to her impressive chest and smiled, "I'm Mirinda! This is our captain, Snoke! My two sisters are Lilith and Romia! The other two are Bullet and Supersonic!"
I casually scanned their team. Lilith appeared to be a rather aloof woman, slender but not as curvaceous as Mirinda; however, her long legs and proportionate figure made her undeniably attractive. Her features bore the distinctive sculptural quality often found in Western women, giving her a striking appearance, perhaps even more so than Mirinda.
Romia was the epitome of a voluptuous golden-haired beauty, boasting a body even more enticing than Mirinda's, complemented by a seductive face that would likely tempt any man into pursuing unspeakable encounters.
As for Bullet and Supersonic, after comparing my thighs to their arms, I resigned to viewing them as formidable adversaries. Their physique was more developed than mine, as I was still a scrawny high school student. During the introductions, the wolf king, that rascal, had somehow slipped his arms around Mirinda's slender waist. While I shot him an indignant glare, he audaciously lifted his hands, giving her ample bosom a firm squeeze. Although Mirinda playfully swatted his hand away, it was clear she did not mind his boldness.
I swallowed hard; Mirinda's chest would only allow me to cover two-thirds with my hand, while a man of the wolf king's stature could grasp it entirely! "It's incredibly unfair. I wonder if Lilith and Romia are as accommodating as Mirinda!" My thoughts drifted, but my peripheral vision caught Bai Jingzhenfu striding over to Romia, smiling as he whispered a few words. Romia covered her mouth, shaking her head while laughing, then exclaimed, "I'm Snoke's woman. If you want to touch me, you'll have to defeat him first."
Facing such a blatant refusal, Bai Jingzhenfu appeared slightly embarrassed, but when he turned to look at Snoke, a predatory gleam flickered in his eyes. Just as I thought a rivalry for Romia was about to unfold, Bai Jingzhenfu strode back over.
"Defeat Snoke? I suppose I could give it a shot. My strength has improved after training, but is it appropriate to openly pursue someone else's woman?" I hesitated, only to hear Jack's laughter: "I fell for Miss Romia at first sight, and I willingly challenge Mr. Snoke. It is intolerable for a man to allow his one true love to be monopolized by another."
"**You son of a bitch!" The moment someone else's woman became your beloved, it seemed Jack was entirely unaware of the meaning of shame. His words instantly ignited the fury of their group. Before Snoke could speak, Bullet erupted into a tirade.
Jack maintained his smile, replying nonchalantly, "I'm not competing with you for Snoke; why are you so incensed? As for my dear grandfather, if you fancy a corpse that has been dead for over a decade, I can provide you with the address of his grave! Just be sure to visit at night; there are always many people paying respects during the day!"
"Indeed, it's absurd! From first sight to turning into a grave robber, Jack... is simply not someone to engage in a war of words with."
I observed the unfolding situation. Predictably, Bullet could no longer tolerate Jack's taunts. With a furious shout, he stepped forward, confronting Jack face-to-face.
I was curious about everyone's abilities and attributes, so I had no intention of intervening in this duel. After all, both Jack and Bullet were inconsequential to me. Regardless of the outcome, it would be a cause for celebration for ordinary individuals.
Jack's offenses could warrant a hundred death sentences, along with ninety electric chairs and eighty hanging executions! As for Bullet, his charges seemed somewhat lighter, but they still held considerable weight.
