The Story of Demon Hunter

Taking You Streets

“At most, we can only give you 30%. Whether you want it or not, it's the highest price we can offer the most.”

Masanobu said with a heavy expression on his face. Even the other two old men looked the same. If Arthur takes 30%, it means each of them will get 23.3%. As for why it wasn't rounded up, it was obvious because every percent was precious in their eyes.

“Oh?”

Arthur raised his eyebrows. He did not expect that the old man would be so soft. The young man felt most people were still the same, liked to bully the soft but feared the hard. Shaking lightly, he said with a serious expression.

“Mari applies fairly, each getting 25% of annual net proceeds. However I have one condition.”

Hearing Arthur's words, they looked at each other. After that, Masanobu said.

“Say.”

“I want all body parts Ground Dragon.”

Arthur's words surprised them. The materials from the Ground Dragon's body were indeed precious, but releasing 5% to obtain everything was a bit excessive. It's like getting big short-term profits, but reducing long-term profits.

After a while, they immediately realized. It seems that ‘Ryuma’ in front of them wants the body of the creature to be made armor, weapons, and accessories for itself. Arguably, reduce the benefits of ‘ big figures’ behind it for its own benefit. The action was a bit sneaky, but the three old men felt quite happy as they benefited more.

If Arthur knew what they were thinking, he would have said they were thinking too much. Other than the gold-level eel meat that the young man considered to be of premium level, the other meat he felt was still within his imagination's estimation. As a chef, he only wanted to obtain gold-level monster meat to the very rare and ...

Arthur sure feels awesome too!

‘You may not sell other ingredients, Mister!’

Gluttony's voice appeared in Arthur's mind. The voice was filled with sorrow and protection. Normally, people who have obtained it should immediately look for prey such as monsters, evil spirits, or demons to increase strength. But who would have thought, his ridiculous master actually went around hunting for groceries.

So when hearing materials such as scales, bones, claws, teeth, and horns Ground Dragon ... Gluttony didn't want to let go at all!

Gluttony itself could be considered an existence of greed. Making him fast for so long really looks more like torture. Such a high-level weapon felt extremely depressed, completely unable to bear it anymore! If it wasn't tied to Arthur's soul, he would have already escaped. Prefer to be used by random cultivators rather than with his master now who had absolutely no compromise.

‘Silence. As long as they agree, I just need his flesh, heart, and brain. You can eat other offal!’

‘...’

Gluttony. He felt extremely grim because his pride felt trampled. One of those supreme weapons simply did not want to eat just any meat, let alone offal! He only wanted to absorb better materials that were suitable for weapons. Clearly, the owner was only treating it as a trash can that could be used to dispose of everything that was not needed!

“We agree!”

Hearing Masanobu's reply, not only Arthur, but Gluttony also felt relieved. After a long time, he was able to eat well. There is a chance to grow.

“But we have one important question.”

“Say,” reply Arthur.

“Although everyone agrees, but facing beings with higher cultivation than us is not at all easy. Are you sure we can do it?”

“...”

Arthur was silent for a moment. After thinking about it, the cultivation of ferocious beasts was different to that of humans because their bodies were bigger and stronger. Sometimes, monsters of the same level could defeat humans at higher cultivation levels. Even so, Arthur was also confident in his strength.

Thinking that, Arthur nodded lightly.

“It should be okay.”

Hearing Arthur's words, they felt relieved. The three old men thought that Arthur must have been equipped with some lifesaving objects from ‘ strong figures’ behind him. So they can feel relieved.

Arthur himself had other minds. He thought it was still possible to fight Ground Dragon alone, but the young man also did not want the three smelly old men to get results without working. So in the end, the young man intended to spend some of their wealth.

Thus, a deal was made. After agreeing, they all signed a special contract that could not be breached. Four contracts were kept by each person in order to be used as evidence.

In the end, the four people were satisfied with the contract in their hands.

Looking towards the other three old men, Arthur again said.

“Actually, I have one more request ..”

Hearing that, the three old men looked at each other.

***

After making a deal, Arthur walks back to the backyard where Nanami is training.

Arthur himself is not too concerned with money, but he is also not stupid and used easily. If there was a chance of gaining an advantage, of course he did not reject it. The young man could have taken the annual mine proceeds as allowance on the way. Despite not knowing how much, he was sure it was enough to just take a walk and enjoy life.

That means ... financial problems are solved because he will have passive income!

‘It is only fitting that the sects are stronger than the various kingdoms. They alone can benefit a lot with their strength.’

If the sects knew what Arthur was thinking, they would have been furious. Unlike him who instantly became a rich tycoon, his own sect was more complicated. What they got had to be spent again to build the sect. Whether it was building buildings, buying more books, buying materials for armor as well as weapons, and potion materials for their disciples.

Arguably, it would take a lot of money to run a sect and upgrade it.

This is different from Arthur who gets a lot for him to use himself. Moreover, even though the young man was strong, he also did not so much pursue strength as everyone else. So the money is only used for purposes that are arguably trivial.

Arriving in the backyard, Arthur sees Nanami who is training hard.

Now that the girl had been at the 3-star bronze level, it should not be long before breaking through to 4-star. His progress was very good, even making Jotaro surprised. Even the guards no longer regarded the girl as an outcast daughter, a scum who would not climb high during her life.

“Teacher!”

Seeing Arthur coming, Nanami stopped practicing and saluted.

In response, Arthur waved with a friendly smile. He then said.

“Prepare yourself. Three days later, I'll take you for a walk.”

Hearing that, Nanami tilted her head with a puzzled expression on her beautiful face.
