Free Web NovelChapter 137: Chapter 60: Master, I want to learn to eradicate demons_3
(Hmph, you must have a taste of rejection before you back down, why even bother?)
Watching the disappearing figure, Exterminator Thirteen felt smug.
(Hmm, where is he going?)
But he noticed that the figure seemed to be going in the wrong direction.
Before long, he was dumbfounded.
That’s because Ree Shil brought back a pair of chopsticks.
Moreover, he simply stopped talking and started eating.
(What the hell!)
Exterminator Thirteen took a look and realized something was off.
This young lad seemed to be an existence that couldn’t be ignored!
If he eats his own food, what will he eat?
No food, it’s easy to get drunk!
He has important things to do tonight and can’t be drunk!
"What do you want to do in the end?"
Out of helplessness, Exterminator Thirteen finally spoke.
Pa.
Instead of answering, Ree Shil slapped the wrinkled and reopened Recommendation Letter on the dining table.
He had just read the letter himself and understood the gist of the matter.
Exterminator Thirteen had long refused to take in apprentices, equivalent to snubbing the rules laid down by the Demon Extermination Residence, challenging their authority.
Such behavior has already caused some discontent within the Demon Extermination Residence.
If he continues like this, starting from next month, the Demon Extermination Residence will deduct 50% of his salary.
It must be known that this salary is quite an important income for him.
"Are you threatening me?"
As expected, Exterminator Thirteen’s face changed slightly when Ree Shil recited this part of the letter.
"I want to become a Registered Demon Exorcist within 100 days."
Seeing the other party showing a flaw, Ree Shil pursued it further.
The time comparison between the outer world and this Instance was 1:10. In order not to miss the Big Brother Cup, he planned to keep the time of this Instance trip within 10 days, which was 100 days in the Instance.
Anyway, he had already figured it out, whether it was having a good relationship or not.
Acting as if he were clearing an NPC.
In the end, as long as the other party helped him complete the final mission, it didn’t matter what methods were used.
"Absurd!"
But unexpectedly, Exterminator Thirteen had a solemn expression.
Learning to eradicate demons within 100 days?
What kind of wild fantasy is this?
He should know that his skills took him more than ten years to master since he was seven or eight!
If one could truly learn to eradicate demons in 100 days, he would write his name backward from now on!
His name would be Multiplication Thirteen!
"Without the ability to eradicate demons, how can one become an Exorcist?"
"Even if you really become an Exorcist, so what?"
"Don’t think that with a title, those of the Demon Clan will be afraid of you."
"In the end, you will still die in vain!"
His seemingly responsible attitude was rather surprising.
"You’re right, it’s just an empty title after all."
Ree Shil nodded, but then changed the topic: "But I really need it."
Exterminator Thirteen originally thought he had persuaded the other party, but almost died from anger upon hearing this part.
However, when he saw Ree Shil’s determined gaze, he suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
After hesitating for a moment, his heart softened in the end.
"Forget it, it’s not impossible to learn my skills if you want to."
"But let’s be clear beforehand, we won’t go through that whole Master-disciple relationship thing."
"Learn as much as you can. Once you leave, don’t say I’m your Master, and I won’t acknowledge you as an Apprentice either."
"Put simply, it’s an unspoken agreement, got it?"
As his words ended, a sound rang in Ree Shil’s ears.
[Ding Dong!]
[Stage 1 Completed]
[Mission Stage 2, Become Apprentice and Master with Exterminator Thirteen]
[Hint: Judging from Exterminator Thirteen’s behavior, there seems to be some story in his past]
Is it already completed? Did I gain favorability?
Ree Shil was slightly stunned and looked at Exterminator Thirteen. "You’re kind of casual, aren’t you?"
Exterminator Thirteen: "?"
However, he soon found the mission of Stage 2 to be quite difficult.
The man had just said that he didn’t want to be Master and Apprentice, and now there’s a mission to establish a Master-disciple relationship.
Isn’t this just making things difficult for me?
I’ll say it again; he’s here to slay demons and eliminate evil, not establish interpersonal relationships.
While the two were having a conversation, Ree Shil’s chopsticks never stopped.
Honestly, he was a little hungry.
Seeing his chopsticks moving non-stop, Exterminator Thirteen didn’t dare to stop either.
So now that they’ve finished talking, the food was almost gone.
What annoyed Exterminator Thirteen the most was that this man only ate the food and didn’t drink alcohol.
In the end, there was only a little bit of alcohol left, and he had no mood to drink it.
"Wait here for me."
So he put down his wine cup and chopsticks, and Exterminator Thirteen went into the inner room.
It didn’t take long for him to wash away the dirt and change into clean clothes.
Then he walked to the altar in the living room and lit three sticks of incense.
Ree Shil had noticed the altar before, with no plaques or statues.
Just an incense burner.
(He said he didn’t want to take in Apprentices, but still went through the whole ritual.)
Watching the other party’s devout actions, Ree Shil scoffed.
When Exterminator Thirteen finished placing the incense and looked at him, he naturally walked over and reached for the incense.
"No, you don’t need to."
But unexpectedly, he was stopped by the other party.
"So many taboos."
He put down his hand.
"Come with me."
Exterminator Thirteen didn’t say much, just walked towards the outside and signaled Ree Shil to follow. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
So the two of them walked out of the Main Gate, leaving the shabby house and the alleyway.
The moment they left the alleyway, Ree Shil felt the world suddenly open up.
The ancient city with its bright lights and bustling streets.
This was the sight he had seen in the promotional video.
However, he noticed that after Exterminator Thirteen’s bath, the atmosphere had become much more somber.
Where was he taking him now?
Was he going to pay respects to their ancestor’s grave?
Or was he going to begin eradicating demons tonight?
Various curious assumptions were spinning in his heart.
As Exterminator Thirteen walked ahead at a leisurely pace, Ree Shil followed him unhurriedly.
They crossed several streets, passing by people coming and going.
Eventually, they arrived in front of a magnificent grand attic.
The spacious gate, the brilliant lights, and the busy flow of people going in and out.
There was a wooden sign standing in front of the door with a huge character written on it: [Gamble].
Ree Shil: "You’re telling me that after taking a bath and offering incense so seriously, you’re just here to gamble?!"
