Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Forced Employment



Looking at the man\'s appearance, Jash doubted his eyes for a second.

The man had black hair with a few gray strands mixed in, but they were immaculately styled while his dark eyes were looking around in nervousness.

"Who are you? And why were you on my private property?" Jash asked, locking onto the man.

It seemed to create a sense of oppression on the man who was already being held by strong hunters after being forcefully brought here.

He had initially resisted by force but gave up the moment he couldn\'t gauge anyone\'s strength.

"Hmph! What private property? Who dares sell my land without my permission?" the man harrumphed, emanating confidence in his tone.

Yet all he got in response was Jash\'s narrowed eyes scrutinizing him.

\'This guy... he has got some nerve. He\'s not even at B-Rank,\' Jash scoffed at his idiocy inwardly, but decided to play along.

"Call that manager and ask her what\'s this mess," he said, turning to the one who had processed the purchase and talked to Sera.

"Yes, Young Master," the person nodded despite feeling there was no need to do so.

The man likely saw the expensive cars and hoped to steal something or gain something out of this whole ordeal.

Unfortunately, the security members were taught to not question orders unless it contradicted earlier orders.

In that case, they have to heed the Family Head\'s orders or their husband/wife.

Currently, they were under direct command of Carcel, then Sera, then Brandon.

In the whole hierarchy, there was no Jash and Caera because they weren\'t the heirs.

Surprisingly, there was no mention of Conrelius either, but it made sense as no SSS-Rank hunter could stay as a family head.

The sole exception being the Emperor and the dwarven and elven people as they had their own rules as well.

However, it was mandated for every SSS-Rank hunter to be a part of the Council of all Races that protected the world from major threats.

After all, a single SSS-Rank monster was no different than an apocalyptic event if they ever reached the living areas of any species.

Fortunately, no such incident had occurred for the longest time, the SSS-Rank hunters swiftly working to dispatch the monsters and clear any high dungeon of SS-Rank or SSS-Rank as quickly as possible.

SSS-Rank dungeons were super rare and the last that appeared was more than a decade ago, but SS-Rank dungeons weren\'t so rare.

And thankfully, for dungeons at A-Rank and above, the person of one rank above could enter it.

Yes, there was a possibility of it, but no guarantee, as every dungeon differs, with some not even allowing entry to more than one person at the same time.

But that was the case for the present, and Jash knew for sure that the situation would continue to decline as time went on.

Just like him, Amael and Helios were aware of it, both having their own set of plans for when that time arrived.

But Jash was a step ahead, wanting to keep an eye on the new dungeons and see when they break and under which conditions they form.

As it had remained a mystery for as long as history goes back with many theories and hypotheses being proved wrong over the centuries.

That\'s why Jash had come to this area specifically to meet someone he knew he was sure to find here.

And even the reason he didn\'t hide such big movements when he could\'ve done everything while being under the radar.

In the end, he had found the man, but he claimed that the land belonged to him.

\'Looks like I won\'t have to scam him, he came ready to be scammed himself,\' Jash smiled inwardly.

He could directly force the guy to work for him due to his lies and defamation, which was a better outcome than manipulating him.

\'I don\'t want him to try and escape my control, that\'d be troublesome,\' he mused, waiting for the call with the manager to end.

"Young Master, the manager confirmed that the land belonged to him, but he lost it to pay off his loans."

Getting the response he expected, Jash nodded and turned to the man, "So what now? You want me to put you in jail for tarnishing my name?"

Jash\'s tone was frosty, sending chills down the man\'s spine as his expression crumbled under the pressure.

It wasn\'t that he didn\'t know his current situation, but he had to take the risk, for his daughter.

She had been selected via the Entrance Test, even reaching the ranks of top 100.

He gritted his teeth and countered, "You can\'t as you basically abducted me."

Jash\'s eyebrow raised in interest as the man was indeed somewhat correct, but did it even matter to him?

\'Did this guy forget that nothing of the sort matters to people in power?\' Jash mused with disinterest.

"I don\'t really care about your thoughts or anything. Just tell me if you\'re useful," he said, waving his hand as if dismissing the matter.

This time, the security was on high alert, doing a background check in advance and finding records of the man.

They could sense his strength of borderline C-Rank, but were still cautious of him having some artifact to hide his rank.

Of course, it would be revealed the moment he fought, but it was idiotic to be caught off-guard twice in a row and it\'d be their heads rolling on the ground if that were to truly happen.

"You–!" The man was about to curse but Jash coldly interrupted.

"I didn\'t ask you," he said, turning to the security personnel next to the man and gesturing for them to tell whatever they found.

"Young Master, this man is a master of computers, VR, and is a good programmer or so it says," the security personnel eyed the man strangely.

"But, it is very coincidental that he always got into the interview round of Arkwright Tech.

Arkwright Tech. was a company under the Hunter Association that worked with everything related to technology.

In fact, they were the biggest players and almost had a monopoly over the whole market, so him getting short-listed every time he applied was suspicious.

Not like Jash really wanted any of that information, he came here for the man only, and that\'s why his thoughts went to that strange woman he met earlier.

\'Just how did she know? Does she have prophetic abilities or is she from the future?\' he wondered, getting lost in his musings.

"...In short, he is a tech expert and we can make him work here?" Jash asked after returning to the present.

He had not really heard everything, especially about the man\'s daughter, disinterested in the whole thing.

"You...! Do you think I will work for you?! Do you think you\'re everything just because you secured the First Rank at the Entrance Test!!"

Hearing the man shout uncontrollably, Jash scowled, but it turned into surprise at the next exclamation.

"Just you wait! My daughter is in the top 50 and she will surely revenge me!!" the man yelled before huffing and puffing, trying to catch his breath.

\'Wait! Daughter? Since when did he have a daughter?\' Jash thought, astonished at the discovery.
