Talent Swallowing Hero

The inner section of Phirie city,

Every building in the inner section of Phirie city was magnificent. The streets were clean and hygienic compared to the streets in the outer section of the city.

Only those with money and power could settle in the inner section, and they paid a lot of taxes to the city leader.

So, of course, the city leader didn't neglect taking care of them.

It doesn't mean the people from the outer and middle sections were not paying the taxes. They were also paying the taxes; however, the city leader knew they didn't dare to raise their voice against him.

'Theodore, you forget the main duty of a city leader. For now, I will let you enjoy your life with the money you have pocketed. However, your end is near.'

Leo silently muttered to himself and came out of the secret dimension before entering the tallest building in Phirie city.

"Hello, Young hero, what kind of loan are you looking for?"

As soon as he entered, a young and beautiful receptionist asked Leo with a beautiful smile.

The beautiful receptionist could tell Leo spends a lot, judging from Leo's designer clothes. So, she tried to be as polite as possible to the potential client of her company.

"I am not here for the loan. I am here for Mr. White," Leo replied.

The tallest building in Phirie city belongs to none other than Mr. White, and Leo planned to use him to keep the city leader and two powerful families in their places.

"Huh? You want to meet the chairman?"

The receptionist frowned at Leo's reply; however, she smiled and asked, "Do you have an appointment with the chairman?"

"I don't have it; however, your chairman will be happy to hear my name. You might even receive a bonus. Why don't you give it a try?"

Leo replied to the receptionist in a confident tone.

'...'

The receptionist looked at Leo and hesitated a bit before calling the secretary of Mr. White.

"Okay…I will guide him to the chairman's office right away."

The receptionist was shocked by the response from the other end after mentioning Leo's name.

"Please follow, Sir. I will guide you to the chairman's office."

With full respect, the receptionist guided Leo to Mr. White's office, situated on the top floor of the building.

....

Inside Mr. White's office,

"What the hell are those b*stards doing when Leo is already here?"

Mr. White shouted at his secretary, who was also his trusted follower for a few decades.

"I will call them and ask…."

"There is no need. Let those b*stards stay there for another few days."

Before his secretary could finish his words, Mr. White replied.

"Okay, Chairman."

The middle-aged secretary nodded.

"Brat, you dare to enter my building after killing my people in the [Treasure land]. Do you want to die that badly?"

Soon, Leo entered the office and seeing him, Mr. White could not help but become furious.

"Mr. White, calm down. Don't you want to know the reason why I came here?" Leo was calm and replied.

"That's the only reason why you are still alive."

Mr. White looked at his secretary, who hurriedly left the office, leaving Leo and Mr. White alone.

"Before I say that, you must have heard that I like to work alone, right?"

Leo sat in a chair and asked Mr. White in a calm tone.

"Yes."

All the powerful people in Phirie city had bought Leo's information. In that, it was mentioned he was a lone mercenary.

"So, I hope you don't mind me killing a couple of low-level heroes who tried to kill me."

"You…"

Hearing Leo's words, the old man became angry; however, he felt Leo was right about it.

Moreover, the death was not real in the [Treasure land], and even the remaining participants were kicked out soon after that.

"Okay. I can forgive you for attacking my underlings."

After thinking for a moment, Mr. White nodded and asked, "Now, tell me the reason for your visit."

"Good"

Leo didn't believe Mr. White was generous enough to forgive him; nevertheless, he was not worried much about it because he was confident in his next move.

"I received an item you are looking for. And your deal was tempting. Therefore, I came here to finish our deal."

"What? You found the fragment of the God stone?"

Mr. White stood up from his chair when he heard Leo's words.

"Yes."

Leo nodded.

"What if…"

"You might be thinking of killing me and taking the fragment of the God stone; however, I suggest you think about it."

Leo interrupted his words before Mr. White could say anything and continued, "For you, money is not a problem. As for letting me become a member of the 'Supreme Market' was nothing to you. So, are you willing to lose the 'Fragment of the God stone' to save some money?"

'...'

Mr. White remained silent and agreed with Leo.

Even though he could kill Leo, Mr. White was not sure whether Leo was carrying the 'Fragment of the God stone' with him or not.

"I am not the type to go back on my words. Since I proposed the deal, I am willing to fulfil it."

With a slight smile, the old man replied to Leo.

"I also have another request along with it."

"What now?"

Mr. White frowned when he heard Leo had another request.

"Don't worry. It's simple. I have offended the Ambermane family and the Cloudriver family. So, all you need to do is tell them that I was working for you in the [Treasure land]."

Leo said his condition and slowly took the 'Fragment of God stone' out of thin air.

"As long as you can sign a contract with those conditions, I will give this 'Fragment of the God stone' to you."

"You have no more conditions, right?"

Mr. White didn't think much about those conditions as they were nothing to him. So, he agreed with Leo and asked whether he had any more conditions.

"That's all."

Leo knew it was not only enough to stop the powerful families from hunting him, but it would also make the city leader think twice before he tried anything funny.

"Good. So, you must have brought the contract, right? Take it out, I will sign it right away."

Nodding his head, Leo took out a Golden paper with the conditions already written on it.

It was called the Golden Contracted Paper, which was created by an advanced hero with a refining talent.

Similar to the Enchanted mission paper, this Golden contracted paper was not a common paper; instead, it could be used to form a strong contract between two parties.

The party that breaks the contract would be heavily punished, which might kill him instantly, or in the worst case, they might be paralyzed for the rest of their lives.

"Here."

Leo dropped a single drop of blood on the contract before pressing it with his thumb, leaving a set of perfect fingerprints.

"You can read it and then sign it."

After he signed it, Leo passed the golden paper to Mr. White.

"The Fragment of the God stone is yours."

After both parties signed the contract, Leo threw the fragment of the god stone at Mr. White.

"Since you finished your part of the deal, it's time to finish mine."

Mr. White checked the item was real and silently stored it in his storage ring, and said with a slight smile, "Let me take you to the 'Supreme Market' now."
