Chapter 193

Davis was confused, "Hmm? Wouldn"t people feel strange or awkward even if there"s a minute age difference of 10 years?"

Haus blinked in confusion, "Wait . . . This is not a mortal"s world . . . Why are you limiting your view like that?"

Davis nodded, a little bit curious, "Oh . . . Then do you care to elaborate?"

"Elaborate? You want to know what"s the line in age difference you shouldn"t touch?" Haus asked confusedly .

Davis nodded his head again . He wanted to know more about the ethics of this world, at least in this part of the place .

"Hmm . . . Most of us who would"ve seen people nearing hundred"s would say that there"s no difference from a 16-year-old till a 300-year-old but I would personally say as long as you aren"t too young or too old in appearance, age doesn"t matter . . . "

Davis responded, "I see, eh??? Why would everyone say that there"s no difference between a 16-year-old and a 300-year-old?"

"Because from the perspective of a major power, everyone below 300 years old could be considered juniors . . . "

"Oh . . . I don"t know about all this . . . "

"It"s fine when I was your age I was duped and bullied a lot by my own friends . . . And you? You should be quite a genius who got recruited into the headquarters or must be a descendant of a Fifth Stage Expert . . . I"m honestly envious of you! Even Sasha must"ve thought that someone in a high position must"ve invited for her to accept the invitation easily . "

"It"s fine, she doesn"t deserve you . . . " Davis tried to comfort him since he seemed to unknowingly step on his Achilles Heel .

"Huh? What do you mean? She is a genius while I"m not! I"m completely aware that I"m the frog trying to eat a swan, but I won"t give up!"

"Even though today could be considered a failure, you could have the spirit stones! Then later!" Saying so, Haus stormed off the building .

"Uh . . . What I meant was in terms of character, you are better . . . Is he still embarra.s.sed? I was just trying to console him, haha!" Davis laughed inwardly and looked at the table behind him filled with delicacies .

He licked his lips as he sat down .

. . .

At night, in Davis"s room .

"Ahh, that was a good dinner! I could feel my energy boiling . . . I could probably make some improvements to my Energy Condensation Cultivation with all this energy . "

All the delicacies he ate were Spirit Stage Beasts, and Haus paid for all of it .

"He"s probably a Vice-Captain . . . " Davis thought while resting on the bed like a pig resting after a sumptuous feast .

He then sat and cultivated for a while, improving his Energy Condensation Cultivation as he circulated Extinction Lightning Judgement .

It took a while for him to refine the energy obtained . After that, he thought of using his Soul Sense but didn"t after considerable thought .

First, it would be considered rude and if found out, conflict might breakout .

Second, there were already formations in some buildings that makes his Soul Sense useless as he would find it difficult to penetrate it .

Third, most importantly, there might be some people powerful enough to be capable of detecting his sense .

He didn"t want it to turn into a difficult or an awkward situation, so he kept his Soul Sense shut and thought of something else .

He took out the Yin-Yang Merit Sutra and resumed researching it deeply like any other man of culture would do in the night .

. . .

The next day morning, Davis closed the book and it disappeared into thin air .

He slowly got up and looked outside the window as he glanced at the rising sun, "I"m such a pervert . . . "

Even he didn"t realise it himself although he doubted it before .

Laughing slightly, he left the empty room behind and walked to the northern gate .

After a few minutes, he gradually arrived at the northern gate . There, he was surprised to see another silhouette rather than the two he was expecting .

Su Hualing, Lucas and Lucia stood as they smiled at him .

Su Hualing wore the same clothes while Lucas and Lucia wore the mercenary uniform .

Lucas waved his hand while Lucia slightly raised her hand but hesitated and kept it behind .

Davis approached them and said, "Miss Su Hualing, did you come here to take your kids away?"

"Che! Who are you calling a kid? I"m an adult!" Lucia pouted in displeasure and turned away her head .

"There"s nothing wrong with what he said, and you"re not an adult . Keep that in mind, Lucia!" Su Hualing looked at her and berated .

She then smiled and turned her head, "Sorry for the trouble, Davis . "

Davis blinked in confusion .

"Are you sure that you want to bring them on a mission? Though these two could be considered geniuses, they can"t be spoken in the same length as you . They"ll just be dragging you down in your mission possibly even giving you trouble . "

"It is fine if you decline . . . " Su Hualing said and looked at him gently .

"Although I like travelling alone, it"s fine for them to accompany me . Though I don"t know if they can come with me to do these missions . . . " He took out those for scrolls and handed it to Su Hualing .

Su Hualing checked the contents of the mission and furrowed her brows, "This . . . It is quite challenging for both of them, but this is better!"

"And it seems that you"re a warrior? Hahaha . . . Then that means these two who are just semi-warriors will have to listen to your words when you three are out on a mission . " She had a good laugh and glanced at the dissatisfied kids .

Lucas and Lucia both frowned . They just that they will accompany him to some low-level missions but now, it didn"t seem like the case, plus, they had to listen to him? A kid younger than them?

Although, they didn"t realise that they forgot one point, that he was stronger than them .

"Still going?" Su Hualing teasingly asked .

Both of them were hesitating when they heard their Mom .

"Feeling cowardly, are we?" She provoked them with a slightly smug face .

They both immediately turned embarra.s.sed and shouted, "We"ll go!"
