30 Trevon Grows

Jack and Jerry saw Trevon with an understanding look. Their young master was really a bad apple. Meanwhile, Palacio was very angry. He glared into Trevon.

[User got 5 Point Revenge from the kid.]

Trevon felt a cold sweat. He had never seen notification panels about this before.

"Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink trolled Trevon.

"Wait! I haven't touched anything sensitive. I just touched her hand." Trevon only wanted to scare the kid.

[As expected of Golden Hand Trevon, he could do that only by touching her hand.] Jerry thought. He should learn this from his young master.

"You! Do not touch her!" Palacio was angry.

"Fine. Tell me who you are if you don't want me to touchy touchy her! HweHweHwe." Trevon smiled perverted. He really wanted to touchy touchy in the beginning. But... when Jack and Jerry defeated Gloria and Palacio, he received an information on his mind.

[Special Mission Unlocked.]

[Lv 0 Mission: Force a mysterious dangerous kid and beautiful lady to tell you their background.]

[Mission Reward: 1.000 Destiny Energy.]

[Mission Decryption: Being a famous young master isn't something that most people can do. He needs to update the newest gossips and mysteries. These two definitely had some gossips about them. This was the ace card of every young master. The story to trick young innocent maidens' heart. Get the gossip!]

[What? That is 1 spirit stones.] He thought he would only get few destiny energies from every mission.

[Special Mission accepted.]

Trevon looked into the laughing Rabbink.

"What? Do you think Master Rabbink Generous? What a generous Rabbink, I am. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink laughed.

[This Rabbink.]

"I..."

"Fine, I prefer to touch her anyway." This time Trevon aimed for the main course.

"I am a noble from South Divine Tides Empire." Palacio said his background.

"Then?" Trevon stopped his claw.

"My family was defeated during the war between North and South Divine Tides Empire. My father, Romaro Arroyo was one of the South Divine Tides Empire's generals. During an important battle, my father was defeated. His defeat made the North Divine Tides Empire managed to conquer 40% of South Divine Tides Empire's territory in one push." Palacio lowered his head.

"My dad is the bravest and most loyal person who I have ever known. Some people said that he turned his loyalty to North Divine Tides Empire. He intentionally opened the defense of his castle. Yet, he was also betrayed by the North Divine Tides Empire. But I know it isn't true." Palacio cried.

Trevon could predict the next story. Since Palacio's father was killed during the battle and considered the traitor, he couldn't stay in South Divine Tides Empire. He also couldn't run into North Tides Empire, since the empire would prefer to kill him whether the betrayal was a truth or a hoax. Palacio told a similar story but based on his point of view.

"So?" Trevon let the kid talked.

"So, I went with my trusted ma..., sister Gloria. We have passed Great Hawk Tribe Land and Earth Mountain Kingdom to run from the assassin."

"Where do you want to go from here?"

"We planned to meet General Paolo from your empire." He said timidly. [Should I say this goal? I need to save Sister Gloria first. We can run to other places.]

Palacio was only a 7-year-old kid. He was lucky that the defeat happened when he was studying in a stable neighboring country, the Great Hawk Tribe Land. Most his bodyguards returned to protect their own family, while the others said that they want to fight for the empire. Only the orphaned Gloria, who accompanied him to this place by joining a merchant caravan.

[Special Mission completed.]

[User got 1.000 Destiny Energy.]

"Could you release us?" The kid innocently asked.

"I could since you have cleared me about your background. But can you two survive with General Paolo?" Trevon asked. He gave some doubts to the kid's heart. "If I am your enemy, I would check all your family friends."

Trevon believed the only reason the boy could manage to run this far was that he was deemed not important. However, he knew this kid could become a powerful Rank 3 warrior with a specialty in the assassination. [Having a Rank 3 subordinate would be cool. Hahaha.]

"I will need to ask my sister." Palacio looked into Gloria.

"Lets us consider this lunch our first meeting!" Trevon believed the food would arrive soon. "Jerry, allow her to rest on the chairs." He broke the tension. Jack and Jerry also put their weapons on their sheath, however they still put some vigilances.

Trevon sat at the table again. He showed a dignified young master style. Personally, he wanted to recruit this genius and he might get the buy 1 get 1 free mission. He still had that maid mission. [The girl is beautiful enough to be my maid. Hwehwehwe.]

But of course, Trevon didn't want to really do that. The kid clearly protected the girl, he wouldn't be able to do lots of touchy touchy and paint the girl with the future assassin kid around.

What would happen if the kid turned into a Rank 3 warrior? That meant that he did touchy touchy while a blade hanged above his neck. Trevon didn't want to lose his life, even if it was hundred years in the future. [As long as I live long, I would be able to touchy touchy more girls. Hwehwehwe.]

Jerry called the waitress to bring the foods.

Trevon would try to recruit the kid for him or the family again. After all the stronger his family was, the more power he could use in the future for... [HweHweHwe.]

What was left was put some good impressions on the kid, so the kid didn't think of him as an enemy. He had already collected some revenge points. He hoped he could clear those points somehow. Foods always the best method to reduce tension. Everybody would be happy with a stomach full of food.

The waitress brought some foods to the room. It was the best foods in the restaurant. Floating Garden didn't get the reputation for something fake.

"Let's eat." Trevon started to offer the kid some food. The kid couldn't stop his worry, he looked into the fainted Gloria. He used to eat luxury foods like this. Yet since he was on run, he hadn't eaten things as delicious as this.

"Why don't you eat? Do you worry that I put some poisons?!" Trevon pretended to be angry.

"No. No. Thank you for your hospitality, Young Master Trevon." The kid had heard the young master's name during the crowd gossip earlier. The kid managed to wear the napkin and used the correct eating tools.

[He is really a nobility.] Trevon thought.

They were eating in silence since that what was well-mannered nobles would do in a formal setting. Of course, the happiest one was Master Rabbink. It took the foods here and there. Master Rabbink basically took everything and only left some for the kid and Trevon.

"Grauk... Grauk... This food is great."

"I really like this egg foo young." Master Rabbink ate his favorite food.

Trevon actually only wanted to taste a bit of every food. With only a little bit of these numerous foods would be enough for his growing appetite. Trevon was almost 15 years old. It was the moment when a boy grew into a man.

[This young master ate a lot.] Palacio thought. Most foods had already disappeared. Master Rabbink was smart. It took the foods only when the boy and the bodyguard didn't see. That was something easy since it had the strongest spiritual sense in the universes.

[I actually didn't believe he could finish all those foods when he ordered.] The boy thought again after he finished eating. All the foods were cleaned by Master Rabbink at the expense of Trevon's image. [Food Cleaning Trevon sounds nice.]

If Trevon heard his thought, he would definitely pinch and pulled Master Rabbink cheek again. Of course, if he could. Master Rabbink had prepared for the sudden pinch attack after the first sneak attempt. It wasn't a donkey, but a rabbink.

Trevon put his utensil and cleaned his mouth using a napkin. He drank the wine slowly.

[This young master isn't that bad. Other than the perverted thing he planned to do with sister Gloria, he looked like a learned young man.] The boy thought. The boy also cleaned his mouth with the napkin and slowly enjoy his drink. [Wine?!] He surprised.

Trevon happily drank the wine. Of course, as a young master, he needed to try the local wine.

He hadn't gotten the chance to eat in a Redwood restaurant. After he came to Redwood, he learned to paint from the superstar. He then followed his uncle all day. He only ate the homemade lunch and dinner. Perhaps the time when he went with Raina could be counted, but those young ladies always preferred light meals and sweet desserts.

[Finally, a proper food travel.] Trevon was pleased.

Trevon saw Palacio's face started to turn red. [A kid.] Trevon smiled. He loved to turn an innocent kid into the right path. He was the leading young master in Bluestar. Making some new young master followers was his responsibility.

"If you want to protect your sister, I would suggest you meet my uncle. If you can show him that you are talented enough, he would give you protection." Trevon said. While normally most people couldn't meet an elder like Charles, Trevon believed his uncle would check this kid's talent with his recommendation.

There had been some questions on Trevon's mind about the kid background. Yet he believed his uncle would do a better job to find those than him. He would delegate a responsibility if it was possible. He had already got the free spirit stone anyway.

"From your desperation to protect your sister, I can see your determination. That's all a test from me. I have never planned to touch your sister. Please send my apologies to her!" Trevon tried to reduce the revenge points again.

"Jerry, ask for some takeaways from the restaurant! You also have to help them return to their accommodation. Do not forget to call a doctor!" Trevon blinked to Jerry.

"Yes, Young Master." Jerry knew the code. It meant Trevon wanted them to be followed.

"I will tell our meeting to my uncle. He would give me some face and offer some help to you." Trevon smiled. He looked like a good young master.

[I really wished to have the girl be a model for one of my paintings.] He sighed in his heart. Yet, Trevon was also afraid of the revenge point thing. [This should give me some Not Revenge Point. Right?] He looked into Master Rabbink direction.

But the big Rabbink still happily cleaned the leftover dishes. Some dishes even cleaned till the plate itself.

[WHAT?] Trevon almost choked on his wine. [You eat the plate?]

"I am a Rabbink. We eat everything."

Trevon spoke some fun things with the kid. It was easy for 15 years old Trevon to entice a younger generation to the right path. He spent around 30 minutes talking while drinking the wine.

"I love to continue our lunch. Unfortunately, I had some important duties. I ask for your understanding. Young Master Palacio." Trevon said his goodbye.

"I am honored to meet you, Young Master Trevon. I will talk to my sister about your help. I am grateful for your help." Palacio bowed to Trevon.

[YES!] Trevon was happy. He believed he was already clear from this dangerous 'revenge point'. [Hahaha] He felt happy.

"No need to be like that. I also enjoyed our lunch. Farewell." Trevon showed the hand and fist gesture. He went outside. There was one fruit merchant who needed some training.

[Lv 1 Mission: Enjoy your happy meal without the annoying flies buzzing around you.]

[Mission completed.]

[User got 5 Destiny Energy.]

He read the next mission.

[Lv 0 Mission: Force a merchant to give you an apple.]

[Lv 1 Mission: Getting a female maid.]

[Lv 2 Mission: Find a flashy martial art to practice.]

He checked the new mission.

[Lv 2 Mission: Find a flashy martial art to practice.]

[Mission Reward: 100 Destiny Energy.]

[Mission Description: A modern young master who lived in the martial world needs to learn some martial arts. The key to becoming a famous martial young master is to use the flashy martial arts in public. Find a martial art that could make girls fall head over heels of you! Show those peacocks they have lousy art!]

[I can't do this thing yet.] Trevon thought. He needed to visit the family martial arts library to get some martial arts. Yet, he also didn't like any place with the word library in its name. However, the mission was correct. He could woo some girls with flashy martial arts. [I should look for one flashy martial art at least. Hwehwehwe.] He started to imagine things.

This time Trevon went to the previous fruit merchant area. While the distance from the restaurant to the area was quite long, he could see numerous stores on the way. He also a cultivator who could move longer and faster than common people.

Like the usual Trevon, he freely picked things from here and there. Most things for non-cultivator wasn't that expensive. He also couldn't purchase something big, since he hadn't received his storage ring replacement.

[I will get a bigger one. This is just a temporary inconvenience.] He cheered himself. The Treasure Snatcher Trevon had his eyes on many things but he couldn't bring them back.

"Jack, bring this tea! I liked the smell." Trevon visited one of the tea stores.

"Jack, wait here! I want to try that snack." Of course, this snack was eaten by Master Rabbink before Trevon managed to take a bite. Trevon had to buy another.

"Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink enjoyed the walking. It tried numerous foods. There was big creativity in humanity. People created lots of different things. While it was the same thing, the taste was always different.

They walked until they reached the previous fruit stores. It was closed. There was a sign written. "We are currently closed. Open again in 2 days."

[Perhaps he ran too much yesterday.] Trevon thought. [Well, I can find another.] He looked into other stores in the street.

"Welcom..." The merchant stopped his greeting.

"Huh?"

"Welcome, Young Master!" The merchant tried to put his big smile.

"Do You know what I want?" Trevon asked. [This will be easy.]

"Yes... eh, No, Young Master." The merchant felt he would cry. [Perhaps I should try to faint myself.] He thought.

This merchant had heard the news of his fellow merchant. He was diagnosed to have a home rest for 2 days because of fatigue.

"I want that." Trevon pointed to an apple.

[Lv 0 Mission: Force a merchant to give you an apple.]

[Mission completed.]

[User got 1 Destiny Energy and an apple.]

He tried to check the quest mode.

[Lv 1 Mission: Getting a female maid.]

[Lv 2 Mission: Find a flashy martial art to practice.]

[Lv 0 Mission: Force a merchant to give you a pineapple.]

[Not again!] Trevon thought. He went the next 3 hours pointing over numerous fruits again.

"Brak..." Another fruit merchant gave up. While the fruits were returned again by Jack, but the merchant wasn't a cultivator. It was impossible for him to have enough stamina for non-stop running around. He felt and, in Trevon's words, slept on the floor.

"Erm..." Trevon felt that he shouldn't do this thing again. He had thought about some cheatings anyway. Breaking rules was his specialty after all.

He had formulated some plans to get easy destiny energies. [I need to use Jonathan for the plan. I will find him tomorrow.]

[It was almost in the afternoon. I could use the time to improve my scout ability. HweHweHwe.]

"Jack, let's go to the busiest street in Redwood!" He moved into the famous Central Marketway. This was the street where Trevon went with Raina the last time. He visited one of the busiest winehouses. He asked for a VIP room with access to the busy street.

Trevon was enjoying his wine while using his scout skills to the passerby. No. To the beautiful woman below.

[Scout Lv 10 – 262.085/512.000]

He checked his current skill. This 'Scout' skill would require more time to improve. He hadn't checked his Job Quest. He believed he had managed to complete some job quests during finding Nana.

[Lv 1 Job Mission: Find a person with talents at least 66.]

[Lv 6 Job Mission: Scout 10.200 different people.]

[Lv 14 Job Mission: Scout 620.900 different demon beasts.]

He checked his status.

[Current Job: Recruiter Lv 8 – Scout.]

The missions to find a person with talents above 66 was a bit hard. He couldn't get completion from using scout on Raina again. Most Rank 3 elders from other Redwood family rarely appeared in public.

He planned to complete it with a scout on an elder of the family. Any Top Rank 3 warrior would be a good option for him.

[Master Rabbink!] He called. Since it was an open VIP Box with an access to the street, Trevon didn't dare to speak normally with Master Rabbink.

"Yes?" Master Rabbink was displeased. He was floating around the street watching people did their shopping. Sometimes, it stole some foods. Most time, it enjoyed the difference of cultures.

[I have a question. I had absorbed the destiny energy, but when I could level to the next level? Also, how many job quests must I do before I level the job?] Trevon asked.

"Well, you will be able to level when the time is correct." Master Rabbink didn't want to open too much of his gacha secret. Gacha was very profitable. Gwahahaha.

"Everybody has a different chance. You are similar to other cultivators. They try to absorb the energy from spirit stones and the environment, but they can only level up if they are ready. The same with the job, completing a higher-level quest, allow you to get higher chances to level up."

[This rabbink didn't help at all.] Trevon complained.

[Gr... This boy is stupid.] Master Rabbink find it was difficult that Trevon didn't understand. [Wait, this thing is always confusing. Should I tell him about the gacha?] It took its thick manual.

10 minutes later. Trevon was still waiting while Master Rabbink checked the manual.

[Wew.] Master Rabbink found something. It had to explain when an apprentice asked such common knowledge.

"Fine, I will slowly explain it to you. Cultivation is like a lottery. However, different from a lottery, in cultivation, you could increase your chance by efforts and talents. As long as you have the potential, you can level up at the first spirit stones you absorb, or even just from absorbing the spiritual energy in the air." Master Rabbink said.

Master Rabbink took a spin wheel. Trevon knew this item. It was often used by some merchants to randomize the reward for their customer. Most expensive items would be put in a very small region. While cheap items would have a very big region. He didn't like those practices.

Master Rabbink's spin wheel was a circle with only a total black region. No. There was a single line of white color, but it was too small. Trevon needed to use his spiritual sense to check.

"This is the example." Master Rabbink said. You needed to roll your luck. If you managed to reach the white region. You could level up. The reason you are faster than your father is this, you rolled the right region."

[I am that lucky? This white line is a scam. It's just a big gambling.] Trevon complained the line was very thin. He believed his hair was wider than the line.

"No, it isn't. Cultivators are only useful thieves in the God's point of view. Becoming a cultivator was already a rebellion against the heaven. Would it be easy? Also, you can increase the white region by absorbing more energies. Of course, there is a limit to the increase." Master Rabbink materialized more white lines and added it to the wheel. The more white-lines were added the bigger the white region.

"As a scout, you can see people with high cultivation speed. They are the people who could put more white lines with the same efforts."

Trevon nodded. He had seen a genius fat mouse.

"There are other possibilities. The example is fighting a life and death battle. Every time, one surpasses a life and death challenge, one would add a white region to this wheel." Master Rabbink put additional white region to the wheel. It was bigger than the standard white line.

"The best part of this thing is you could surpass your talent limit. As a scout, you have seen some people with 0 as their limit."

Trevon nodded.

"If they pass through the danger, they could turn into a cultivator. You must have heard a story of common people surviving a disaster and somehow they could sense the spiritual energy?" Master Rabbink said.

Trevon tried to remember the gossip he knew. There were some indeed.

"They changed the destiny. They changed their potential. So, the number you see is not fixed, but the chance was small. It will turn even smaller the stronger one becomes." Master Rabbink looked into the small white region on the wheel.

Trevon also looked into the small region. [So, the only way for less talented people to grow was to face life and death challenge.]

He had heard numerous lucky stories like Master Rabbink said. A weak cultivator surviving a deadly calamity suddenly turned into a genius. He had heard numerous cultivators who face a bottleneck decided to enlist in the military, went into forbidden grounds, or joined dangerous missions in hope for a breakthrough.

There were also stories of common people turned into cultivator trough war. This was the reason a path of nobility trough merit in the war.

For example, one of the legendary figures in the Heavenly Phoenix history, Great General Leeroy Battlestar. He was a commoner at the beginning. He was an orphan without any family name. He even had tried to join as a guard to some small families but was rejected.

However, he joined the war as a foot soldier. He slowly moved through the rank. Like some soldiers before, he suddenly could sense the spiritual energy and become a cultivator after a brutal war. After he cultivated the freely available cultivation technique for a soldier and faced numerous wars. The general turned into a Primary Rank 3 warrior. He was a legend and hope for the common people.

"A God never limit people. Other than facing life-death battle, sometimes getting an understanding of the law could also triggers the chance. But it was even harder." Master Rabbink said. "The question is whether you are lucky enough to break the limitation, and whether you brave and persistent enough to break them."

"The same is with you. If you are lucky you could level tomorrow. Destiny Path is not useful if you are idle. It only removes your old limitation and gives you endless possibilities. However, to reach the peak, it still depends on your effort."

Trevon finally understood a bit. Every energy that he absorbed would allow him a chance to roll his cultivation wheel. The more energies he absorbed the bigger his chance for each roll would be. The same for the job system. The more he completed a quest, the more attempts he had. While the higher level a job quest would give better chances for him to level his job.

[It won't be easy after the initial few levels] He thought. [I must work hard there is nothing easy in the cultivation path even with this cheat.]

Watching Trevon, Master Rabbink gave a solemn smile. [The kid grows a bit.] Before it returned to the usual playful Rabbink style.
