Full-Time Magister: Immortality Begins with Slaying Demons
Chapter 49 Commission
With just one sentence, he controlled three mid-level mages.
"Lingling, has anyone come to request something?"
An old man's voice came from inside the house, breaking the awkward silence.
"Grandpa, they're here for a job interview. They're too young, we don't want them," Lingling said into the house before going back to reading.
"It's good to be young, you're not afraid of anything. It's just a pity if you die before you've had a chance to enjoy life," the old man said slowly.
"..."
Mo Fan's lips twitched; he was truly impressed by this grandfather and grandson.
Zhou Sining and Mu Nujiao exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
"It seems he's run into a wall." Mu Nujiao glanced at Mo Fan.
Zhou Sining shrugged nonchalantly: "Whatever, it's not like I'm the one looking for a job."
On the other side, just as Mo Fan was about to go in to see the old man, a woman in a hurry appeared at the street corner and stumbled towards the Qingtian Hunting Grounds.
Seeing this, Leng Lingling and the old man indeed delivered their "fat sheep" theory, leaving Zhou Sining and the other two speechless.
Mu Nujiao, standing to the side, couldn't help but wonder, "Is this shop... really normal?"
"It should be fine. The information was provided by the Hunter Alliance. Mo Fan said this store has a very good reputation," Zhou Sining said.
But honestly, if he hadn't read the original novel, he would also think it was a ruthless, heartless establishment that preys on people!
The brightly dressed young woman finally arrived at the entrance of the hunting lodge, and Leng Lingling got up to welcome her inside.
The three people left outside looked at each other, unsure whether to stay or leave.
"See? At least you came once." Mo Fan had to get an explanation.
You have to understand that he is now the big boss of Mingzhu University. How could he be disliked by a 12-year-old girl for being too young?
Zhou Sining looked at Mu Nujiao: "And you?"
"Let's go in and take a look." Mu Nujiao was intrigued by this unexpected situation.
The three followed her inside and sat on a nearby bench, listening to the young woman's complaints.
In short, the young woman suspected that her husband was a demon who would transform into a demon every night and go out to kill people.
She originally wanted to run away but failed. Even now, when she comes out to make a request, she is taking advantage of the opportunity to escape.
As a result, the old man and Leng Lingling refused the young woman's request.
Looking at that dejected figure, both Mo Fan and Mu Nujiao were puzzled.
"Why don't you help her?" Mo Fan asked.
Mu Nujiao chimed in, "That's right. Even if her husband isn't a demon but a murderer, she's definitely in danger. She's quick to pay, so why doesn't she take the job?"
"Young people shouldn't judge things by appearances." The old man tapped his pipe and handed the two a pre-signed commission document.
"This address... is exactly the same as the address that woman just gave me!" Mo Fan exclaimed in surprise.
"This is what her husband signed with us this morning, and the situation is exactly as she described," Old Man Bao said briefly.
"So that woman's husband suspects that she is the demon," Mu Nujiao concluded.
Surprised, she suddenly realized that they were indeed a couple, with identical thought processes, and even chose the same hunting lodge.
"This commission is interesting," the old man glanced at the three of them, a sly smile on his face. "Since you want to join the hunting party, why don't you handle this commission yourselves?"
"Sir, wait a moment. This young lady and I aren't here for a job interview; we're here to accompany a friend," Zhou Sining said directly.
"Yes, it's just me," Mo Fan echoed.
"That's a pity." The old man shook his head and looked at Mo Fan again: "Then you can do it alone. We only accepted the commission from my husband."
"Where are my teammates? I can't do this all by myself, can I?" Mo Fan asked.
"Here," the old man said.
Following his gaze, Mo Fan looked down to the side and saw the cute little girl with pigtails from before.
No older than 12 years old.
"Her? Me, take this little girl? Are you kidding me!" Mo Fan exclaimed.
"I'm the one guiding you, newbie!" Lingling snorted and tossed a badge to Mo Fan.
Upon seeing the design on the badge, Mo Fan completely froze: "Hunter Master?!"
Mu Nujiao, who was standing to the side, did not understand the hunter levels of the Hunter Alliance, but she vaguely remembered that her elders had said that a hunter master usually had to be at least a high-level mage.
But Leng Lingling doesn't even look like she graduated from junior high school, let alone a high-level mage.
"A hunter master this young?"
Zhou Sining explained from the side, "Generally, you have to be an adult to apply for hunter status, but if you are a top-level hunter like a king, you can go through the special channel to apply for it for your child."
"This young man knows a lot about hunter ranks?" Old Bao glanced at Zhou Sining.
"Not really, because I am a hunter myself and I know about this kind of thing," Zhou Sining replied.
"Oh, why don't you come to our hunting lodge? Our hunting lodge offers pretty good benefits."
Not bad my ass...
Zhou Sining and Mo Fan exchanged a glance, silently complaining to themselves.
However, the questions that need to be answered still need to be answered.
"I studied at a university in the ancient capital and came to Shanghai for tourism," Zhou Sining said.
The old man didn't say anything more, but Lingling was very opposed to partnering with Mo Fan.
The old man patiently persuaded him, seemingly satisfied with Mo Fan.
Lingling snorted coldly and left with some resentment.
"You can just call me Old Man Bao. My granddaughter is not as intelligent as most people, and she is a bit proud and aloof. Please forgive her if she offends anyone," Old Man Bao said.
"It's nothing." Mo Fan wasn't about to hold a grudge against a little girl.
Zhou Sining and Mu Nujiao, who were just there for show, didn't think much of it.
And to be honest, they actually quite like Lingling.
Zhou Sining naturally developed a liking for the main characters after reading the original novel, while Mu Nujiao simply liked children.
Seeing that the three of them didn't seem to be in any particular mood, Old Man Bao continued to talk to Mo Fan about the commission.
Taking the opportunity, Mu Nujiao turned to Zhou Sining and whispered, "You actually have a hunter identity? I had no idea."
It was rare for the girl to show such curiosity about him, so Zhou Sining certainly wouldn't miss this good opportunity to demonstrate his abilities.
He slowly explained, "You should know about the ancient capital. Every night, we face attacks from the undead. Therefore, there are many duty assignments of all sizes, and even the most ordinary novice mages can take on these jobs. I happened to be short of money and wanted to train myself, so I applied for hunter status and took on these assignments."
Upon hearing Zhou Sining say he had no money, Mu Nujiao paused, then asked softly, "Will it be very hard?"
"It's alright, it's just standing on the outer city wall casting spells down. When we run out of mana, we retreat to the logistics department. The hardest part is dealing with jet lag, since the undead come at night. With the outer city wall in place, there's generally no danger to our lives. Although I was so scared by the undead that I couldn't sleep the first night, practice makes perfect, and after doing it a few times, it doesn't feel so bad anymore..."
As he spoke, Zhou Sining unconsciously softened his tone.
This was the first time he had spoken about these things.
At first, I just wanted to put on an act in front of Mu Nujiao, but as I talked, I suddenly realized that it was really nice to have someone willing to listen to me.
