"I'm going to bring the week's income to the protector."
"ooh, it's had been a week already. Don't we take a little bit for ourselves before?"
"Humm, he's right. Otherwise, we will never get paid."
"I don't know about you guys, but I am not courting death. You know he won't hesitate to kill us. So I advise you to remain serious and not play cheap tricks....."
"Senior Brother Giss, you changed a lot. You weren't like this in the past."
"Listen, the first day of his arrival, me and Junior brother Uzmir, we were late. I was persuaded that he would set an example and punish us because of this, but he didn't. He only gave us a speech. Many of our brothers, including me, felt close to what he said that day. You can see the pain in the protector's eyes. In the end, he is just like us..... "
"As for the training sessions, I know they are very hard, but it's for our own good that he's doing this. With the tide beast coming soon and the war against the wolf clan, training that allows us to stay sharp is necessary for our chances of survival to increase. Think of your family, we have to survive, and therefore we have to train...."
"And guys, let me give you a piece of advice. This new protector is at the peak of the Qi condensation realm, and it is just a matter of time before he reaches the next Realm. How old is he? I am not sure, but definitely not over 100 years. So it will be only beneficial for us to follow him."
"Humm, what Senior brother Giss is saying makes sense...."
--------
That day Anzar received the earnings of the week from Giss.
He counted about 125,000 low-source stones, which was little more than he had excepted. He then asked:
''How is this income compared to the past?"
Giss said respectfully:
"it is about 25% more than usual. Everyone is paying without trying to make use of their social status. The Example set by Protector Anzar is very beneficial."
Anzar nodded in appreciation and said:
"Take 5000 Low source stones. From now each disciple will receive 100 low-source stones per week."
Surprised then very grateful, Giss Cupped his fist and expressed:
"Protector Anzar is very generous. I'm sure it will motivate everyone even more."
Giss then excused himself and left.
Anzar put all this income in the storage ring and went to the city's center to meet the other protectors.
---
On the top floor of a fancy restaurant, there were only 3 cultivators in the Qi condensation realm, which is only reserved for the members of the Blue Cloud Sect.
Those three can easily be recognized as city protectors thanks to their blue and yellow outfits.
While they were talking, a black-haired man dressed like them entered the floor.
The man in the middle of the three stood up and said :
"Oh, protector Anzar, we finally have the pleasure of meeting you. Come and sit down. The dishes will soon be served."
Anzar nodded, then sat in the chair reserved for him.
The 3 protectors then get acquainted with Anzar while they appreciate the excellent quality of the food.
Apart from the calm man in the middle named protector Ifrit, there was also a muscled middle-aged woman and a skinny young man, respectively, Protector Célia and Protector Hennu.
After getting acquainted, Protector Célia said:
"HaHaHa, Protector Anzar is very Merciless. I am sure the income this week must be excellent."
Anzar, while glancing at the scar on Celia's face, replied :
"I only took advantage of the work done by the protector before me."
After Hearing this, Ifrit said :
"Protector Anzar, don't need to be this humble. I am sure that elder Adan will be delighted with our work. However, times will surely change. Our city is close to the borders. When the times come, we must support each other. If one of the gates falls, then it is the whole city that will follow. For this purpose, we need strong forces and ensure that our disciples and we do not lack resources."
Then with a low voice, he continued:
"Brother Anzar, we keep in general 10% for ourselves."
Anzar took a good look at this man and only nodded.
Seeing this, Célia said cheerfully :
'' Good, Good! Bring us the best liquor! "
