Everyone Tames Beasts: I End Up Taming Diseases - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Sky-High Remuneration

Adrian brought Nedam to where the Fire Demon Lizard was resting.

When Nedam saw how strong the Fire Demon Lizard was, he clapped his hands in excitement and said, “Good! Very good! It’s really a Level-3 spiritual beast!”

“Adrian, you shall be the Vice-Captain of the escort team!” Nedam patted Adrian’s shoulder and announced solemnly.

This scene stunned everyone, including Adrian!

After all, this was Adrian’s first time coming into contact with an escort company. He didn’t even know what kind of job he would be facing!

However, he, who did not understand these things, was actually ordered to be the Vice-Captain of the entire transportation escort team?

“No, no, no. I can’t do it.” Adrian wanted to be an ordinary escort member. He didn’t want to be the Vice-Captain, so he quickly waved his hand to decline.

Looking at Adrian’s slightly panicked expression, Nedam smiled and said, “Adrian, I know you think it’s very sudden. After all, you’re a newbie, and you don’t fully understand the escort agency yet.”

“However, you don’t have to be so afraid at all. After all, you’re very strong and completely qualified to be the Vice-Captain! You can slowly learn other things.”

“Furthermore, if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask the Captain or the other veteran escorts. I’m sure that they’ll tell you enthusiastically.”

Nedam looked at Adrian and continuously tried to comfort him.

It should be known that Nedam was not willing to speak a single word of nonsense to others. However, he treated Adrian with such passion and gentleness, just like a kind old grandpa.

“But I really don’t think I can.” Adrian spoke hesitantly. He didn’t think that he was strong at all.

If not for the Fire Demon Lizard, he would only be an ordinary person without a contractual spiritual beast. That was why he had no confidence.

Seeing that Adrian was still very hesitant, Nedam suddenly said, “Adrian, if you are willing to be the Vice-Captain of this escort mission, you will receive 300 Silver Coins after completing the mission.”

As soon as he said this, the surroundings went into an uproar!

One mission would last for more than a month at most, but he could earn as much as 300 Silver Coins as remuneration! This was definitely a high salary no matter where one was!

After all, just 10 Silver Coins was enough for an ordinary person to spend without restraint for half a month!

Richard looked at Adrian and gulped. He said in disbelief, “Charles, did I hear that wrongly? Did that old man actually offer 300 Silver Coins?”

“As expected of Mr. Adrian! Only he can create so many miracles!” Richard couldn’t help but exclaim.

Charles was also shocked. A bitter smile suddenly appeared on his face as he slowly said, “I’ve decided to take back what I told you before. I didn’t expect someone to be able to earn so much money in such a short time! This is simply crazy!”

“Three hundred Silver Coins… how much roasted meat can that buy! Even if I eat roasted meat every day, I can eat it for many years!” Charles sighed emotionally.

However, just when everyone thought that Adrian would agree decisively, he shook his head and said softly, “I’m sorry, I still don’t think I can be the Vice-Captain. Please find someone else.”

Adrian was not moved by money and reasoned, “This is because I feel that this position not only means high pay, but also high responsibility. Thus, forgive me for not being able to agree.”

When the others heard Adrian’s answer, they looked even more shocked than when they had just heard Nedam offer the high price!

“No way! Is this Silver Beast Tamer crazy? Why is he unwilling to do it even for such a high price?”

“Perhaps he doesn’t lack money. But if he doesn’t lack money, why did he apply to the escort company? What a strange man.”

“I think that the price might be too low. If you don’t believe me, let’s take a look.”

“…”

People began to discuss with each other. They simply couldn’t understand why Adrian would reject this offer.

Meanwhile, Richard and Charles were about to go crazy and stared at Adrian. In particular, Charles really wanted to beat this bastard up! After all, he was being offered 300 Silver Coins!

Seeing the determined look on Adrian’s face, Nedam’s lips moved slightly. Suddenly, he announced a new number. “Then I’ll give you 500 Silver Coins.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked once more! So this was how Silver Beast Tamers were treated!

They did not expect that not only would Nedam persist, he would even increase the reward!

Furthermore, he had raised the value of the reward by 200 Silver Coins!

It seemed like Nedam had really invested heavily this time in order to move Adrian!

However, Adrian’s face remained calm. Just as he was about to speak, Richard and Charles hurriedly ran over to hold him back, afraid that he would refuse again.

Charles pulled Adrian to the side with force and began to berate him angrily at a very fast pace.

“Adrian, are you crazy? That’s 500 Silver Coins!”

“You’d better think carefully. If you have so much money, won’t you be able to see Captain next month?”

“Do you really not want to go to Hilmar City and see Captain as soon as possible?”

Of all the people present, only Charles dared to reprimand Adrian without any hesitation.

Richard also hurriedly said, “Mr. Adrian, regardless of whether you’re the Vice-Captain or an escort member, you’ll encounter the same amount of danger. However, if you’re willing to be the Vice-Captain, you’ll be able to earn a completely different amount of money!”

“As Charles said, if you have the money, you can do anything you want and go anywhere you want.” Richard looked at Adrian earnestly, trying his best to impress the man before him.

Adrian looked extremely hesitant. After all, he was not an emotionless person and was actually very tempted by this huge sum of money.

In particular, when Charles said that he might be able to see Alice at Hilmar City next month if he had enough money, he was even more tempted.

However, Adrian still didn’t have much confidence in himself. After all. he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to shoulder this responsibility. He was afraid that he would cause trouble for others and that he wouldn’t be able to complete the mission in the end…

However…

Adrian was even more afraid of not being able to see Alice again!

His gaze suddenly became incomparably firm as he said calmly, “I accept!”
