The Author's POV

Chapter 116

Staring at the busy streets of Ashton city, outside of Moonlight mercenary group headquarters, two individuals stood on the stairs that led all the way up to the building.

"Thank you for coming"

*Puff*

Puffing a mouthful of smoke, Leopold nonchalantly stared at the people below him. Glancing at Smallsnake from the corner of his eyes, he slowly said

"No problem, I had nothing to do anyways..."

-Tssss!

Tossing the cigarette in his mouth to the ground, Leopold stepped on it. Glancing at Smallsnake, he asked

"So what did you call me here for?"

Smiling, Smallsnake took out a contract from a small black briefcase in his hands and handed it to Leopold. Without skipping a beat, he went straight to the point

"I would like to hire you"

Raising his brow, Leopold took the contract from Smallsnake's hands.

"Oh? Hire me?"

Scanning the document in his hands, Leopold's brows couldn't help but jump up and down. Glancing back at Smallsnake, with a hint of doubt, he couldn't help but ask

"...is this offer real?...100,000U a month, I'm not reading this wrongly right?"

Smiling, Smallsnake nodded his head.

"Our leader has specifically asked for you, and that's the price he is willing to offer for your services"

"Me?"

"Yes"

"Why?"

"Don't ask me, I'm just following orders"

Though he said that, Smallsnake couldn't help but start to understand why Ren wanted to recruit him.

As Smallsnake stood next to Leopold, although at first glance Leopold may come across as a lazy middle-aged man, as he stood next to him, Smallsnake noticed the unwavering determination that decorated his face.

Moreover, the way he carried himself as well as how his deep black eyes added with his dignified aura made it seem like he was in command of everything. This proved to Smallsnake that Leopold was an experienced man. He could tell from first glance that he had been through a lot of setbacks throughout his life.

Even Smallsnake, who had met a lot of people in his past, couldn't help but feel that there was something different about this man. Though his presence wasn't overbearing like some of the people he met, he unknowingly felt respect for the man. Equivalent to that of a soldier to his own general...

'So that's why...'

-Plack!

As a slight smile appeared on Smallsnake's face, snapping him out of his thoughts, Leopold lightly smacked the contract on Smallsnake's chest.

"Sorry but I will have to refuse"

"Huh?"
