Chapter 44: Absolute Genius
David was sizing Bill up as well while he spoke.
In his early thirties or so.
Gentle and elegant. A modest gentleman, it seemed.
A lady killer for sure.
David did not sense a superior aura on him, but more of a breeze, which felt very comfortable.
The trio took their seats.
Bill poured David a cup of tea and said, “Try the tea, David.”
David could not refuse, so he picked it up and took a sip. There was a sweet aftertaste after drinking the tea, and it was a little fragrant too!
“Mm! It’s really good!” David said in a pretentious manner.
He did not know a damn thing about tea. He learned all of it from television.
He was a poor man who spent his holidays working a part-time job, so how could he have ever drunk such high-class tea!
He drank black tea and green tea before, but they all tasted somewhat the same. There was not much difference between them.
If the tea experts knew what was on his mind right now, it would probably blow their top off.
This was no ordinary tea. The annual production of this tea was limited in the country, and those who were lucky enough to drink it were big shots.
“Right? Speaking of which, it is all thanks to you that I get to drink this cup of tea today, David. I don’t often get the chance to drink it. The big boss knows that I’m here to see you and has specially asked me to bring it to you,” Bill said with a smile.
The big boss?
Who?
The founder of SCC?
David had some questions in his heart.
He did not ask. But if the other party was able to offer such a valuable tea to him, it would not be as simple as mentioning a word.
“It is very good indeed!”
David pretentiously took two more sips.
“Can you tell me what happened that day, David? We’re all very curious. How did you manage to embarrass Zachary like that?” Hugh butted in.
Bill stopped drinking the tea and looked at David.
He wanted to know what happened that day too.
“There’s nothing interesting about it, really!”
David succinctly explained what happened that day, but omitted the part where he shattered the sword with a snap of his finger.
He thought it was not okay to boast about himself.
“You didn’t tell the truth, David. How can you omit the most interesting part? I heard that you caught Zachary’s sword with two fingers and shattered the alloy sword he had been carrying around for years with a snap of your fingers. That’s not something ordinary people can do!” Bill said.
‘If he knew, then why did he ask me to say it?’
It was truly difficult to read the minds of big shots.
“You made a mistake, Mr. Fisher. The most interesting part should be Paul and Mac’s battle. All I did was add a bit of spice at the end,” David said modestly.
Bill did not say a word.
He knew Mac Hill.
A veteran fighter on the Tiger Rank!
Though Paul, the Tiger Ranker around David, was one he had not heard of before.
A battle between two Tiger Rankers must be interesting.
Could Mac smash Zachary’s alloy sword with a snap of his fingers, though? Probably not!
That was a material developed by the most advanced technology.
This was why they valued David so much.
If this was merely a Tiger-Ranked escort, they would not have raised such a fuss to send a core member like him to meet David in person.
Zachary would not have abstained from acting until now either.
He was so young yet so terrifyingly powerful, hence he must have come from a superior background.
Unlike martial arts novels and TV shows, there were no such things as strange encounters in this world where one would suddenly get one’s hands on a cultivation technique to practice the best martial arts.
Or perhaps obtained skills passed down by a senior, instantly acquiring skills accumulated over dozens of years. Those were simply bullsh*t.
A person’s ability needed to be practiced one step at a time, and only those with the greatest powers could nurture a supreme genius like David.
The trio gathered to make small talk, most of which were to establish a good relationship with David.
The strength that David displayed had left Bill, an SCC core member, a little astounded. He thought that he did not have much chance of beating Zachary if he were ever to fight him.
Besides, he was one of the top-ranking core members in SCC. Most of the core members were no match for the eight great fighters of the T-Faction.
David felt a little bored.
He was not used to making small talks with big shots like these.
He did not see himself as a big shot yet, but others thought otherwise.
Seeing that it was almost time, Bill said to David, “David, I’m not only here to meet you this time, but I’ve also brought you a message from the big boss.”
He knew it!
David knew that Bill had other intentions when he mentioned the big boss in the beginning.
“Oh? I wonder who this big boss is? And what does he want? Hugh knows I just joined SCC and don’t have much clue in this area!” David asked.
“The big boss’ name is Clinton Zimmerman, one of the three founders of SCC, the strongest and the one with the most prestige.”
Bill then slowly explained Clinton’s intentions to David.
To put it simply, Clinton needed a favor from David, but what that favor was and when he needed that favor was yet to be decided, but it was estimated to be in six months’ time.
Clinton used to be friends with Stan from T-Faction and they both grew up together.
They were both prominent figures in the circle and were just like brothers. They established T-Faction together and were both at the center of attention.
However, a woman’s appearance ruined their brotherhood completely.
Lorraine Lovewood!
A woman of great beauty.
A woman that had stunned an era.
