God's Eyes

Because they were already late, they immediately drove to their client who waited for them impatiently.

Each of the three youths was uncomfortable with meeting the noble that treated soulbonds as objects and their faces showed it clearly.

Gabriella had to remind them to show at least a calm or neutral facial expression in order to not upset them as they were one of the overlords of Jiro city.

After a 30 minute drive through the city, they arrived in front of a huge wall with many guards and automatic mana turrets all over the walls.

Next to a gigantic gate were at least 20 guards protecting it, Jason activated his mana eyes to inspect their mana cores.

They seemed to be stronger than Malia's but weaker Mark and Gabriellas which could already be considered relatively strong.

To Jason everyone was strong so he didn't even try to compare himself.

But he still wondered why there were so many high-defensive measures

'What are they scared about and who did they offend or did they just build the wall and hire these guards for safety matters to save themselves once a Beast tide stormed the large wall.?'

Jason wasn't sure but there was no answer he could think of right off the bat.

While their hovering truck neared the wall, a notification popped up at the trucks mainboard and Mark had to tell his purpose to come to the mansion and who he was which included an verification of his ID

Everything went well without issue and they drove through the gate unhindered.

The garden was gigantic and had the size of multiple football fields, while many different buildings could be seen.

There were stables, a building looking like a Colosseum, a small pagoda that continuously attracted large amounts of mana, many luxurious houses surrounding a magnificent, large mansion that stood next to a large sea with a beautiful landscape.

"Is that a Village or what?!?" Greg exclaimed and even Mark and Gabriella were astonished about what they saw.

When they went closer to the villa they could even see some fields with crops on them.

It was really as if they were inside a village.

Why?

Nobody would be able to answer it, except their client.

In front of the villa stood a fat middle-aged man and a slightly younger version of the fat man.

Both saw the truck driving towards them and waited somehow patiently while the young man looked slightly anxious.

The young man was probably Mark and Gabriella's Client and the youths had to calm down themselves as anger raged within them and could be seen in their eyes.

After the truck stopped, everyone went out and the middle-aged man greeted their guests.

"Hello my esteemed quests, my name is Rodriquez Olier and I contacted you because of the greater storm eagle mission. I'm sorry to say that but we are short on time. May we skip the long chat and go directly into our business?"

Mark and Gabriella expected that their Client was short on time and didn't waste any of it.

The greater storm eagle who was placed last into the trailer was taken out by a large metallic arm.

While the middle-aged man kept talking to the Fler parents, the young fatty ran to the greater storm eagle viewing it with a weird smile.

The chubby youth was probably 18 years old or maybe even older but his behaviour was worse than most six-year-old children, causing everyone to look at him with despise.

Greg, Malia, and Jason were disgusted as they previously still hoped that the noble was regretful about causing the greater storm eagle to die but apparently that wasn't the case.

When the fat youth looked into the trailer Jason had a bad premonition and right at the worst timing the fox cubs woke up and squeaked due to them being hungry.

They struggled their way to the automatic feeding machine and began to eat.

This could be seen by the fat youth and interest could be seen in his eyes as he mumbled "Lesser elemental fox cubs?"

Jason stopped breathing for a moment and he wasn't alone as the Fler siblings also sensed something wrong.

The fat youth turned away from the eagle and looked vividly at the fox cubs.

Averting his gaze his loud reached his father.

"Dad, you said I should search for an awakened beast because my soul fits 4 larger beasts and a weaker one, right? I think I found a suitable beast for this spot.

There are lesser elemental fox cubs inside the trailer."

'F**k' was the word in everyone's mind.

While the middle-aged man's attention was drawn to the trailer Gabriella looked slightly worried while Mark was still calm.

"That's true we have lesser elemental fox cubs in the trailer but I've already made a contract with the seller of these cubs and another one with the purchasers...so there is not a single one left to sell. ..I'm sorry"

Mark was calm and explained everything while adding some made-up story to the truth which would add another layer of protection

Having made two contracts was not worth the effort to pay for remuneration as for breach of a contract was normally 5 to 10 times the price of the beast.

For two contracts the price would be 10 to 20 times more expensive.

If Mark wanted to sell them for 200.000 one had to pay 2 to 4 million which normally wasn't worth the effort.

Adding another fact with a gentle reminder Mark drew the attention to a different subject

"May we go back to our business? The soulbond needs time to consolidate, otherwise your opponent might notice something wrong and we don′t want something like that to happen, right mister?

Rodriquez turned back to Mark and said slightly frowning

"Oh.Yes...Normally I wouldn't back off against a measly contract breach but it's certainly true that we are in a hurry...Let's finish our business and part our ways.."

Everyone sighed in their minds while the young fat man was a little bit sad but he didn't mind that he couldn't get a fox cub as his father would probably give him something even better later.

Pouting a little bit, he was still noisy and Jason decided to close the trailer to prevent any fox cub sounds to reach the outside, which could attract the attention of the fat youth and his father once again.

Rodriquez asked once again about the contract and the breach remuneration because he wanted to give his son another beast with a good elemental ability and lesser elemental foxes were relatively good for their mana core rank but Mark was firm in his rejection.

"The contract with our salesperson was slightly special so it should be almost impossible to sell a beast for"

Jason liked Mark more and more, even if he was greedy, he still wouldn't break a contract which astonished him a little bit.

He would probably be able to earn a few million from him if he was about to sell him a single fox cub only because of the remuneration…..

If Jason had to be honest, he saw the remuneration clause for the fox cubs but thought it was enough...

5 times the price… That would only be one point three million credits for a single cub and Rodriquez tried to purchase the fox cub even if he knew that he had to pay a remuneration of 2 to 4 million at the least...

After their deal was over, the Fler′s and Jason hurriedly said goodbye and left the slightly dejected fat middle-aged man with the chubby youth next to him, while the greater storm eagle stood behind.

Everyone sighed in relief and a thick sweat pearl could be seen running down Mark′s temples.

While they were on their way out, a red armored pickup drove by and Jason could see a young man sitting in the driver seat.

His eyes were blood-red and Jason felt weird looking at him.

The youth couldn't see him but there was an eerie feeling around him when Jason saw him for a very short moment
