Chapter 13

In order to get Wright to stay and practice for ten days, Moyu casually added two more requests.

In his view, no normal person would agree so readily, and he had already prepared for subsequent negotiations.

But he didn't expect Wright to really agree, and without any hesitation.

"..."

Moyu remained silent.

He never believed in windfall gains. Seeing Wright agree so readily, his first thought was—

Wright might have some ulterior motive.

"Are you sure you want to exchange the achievement of capturing a 20 million reward bounty for these three requests of mine?"

Moyu repeated the terms of the deal without showing any emotion.

"Of course."

Wright nodded, took out a phone from his pocket, and said seriously, "Let's fulfill the first request. Give me a bank account, and I'll transfer 30 million jeni to you right now."

"I don't have a bank account."

Moyu had always stayed in the temple and never had a bank account.

Seeing that Moyu didn't have a bank account, Wright suggested, "What about an ID card? I can take a photo and get you a bank account within five minutes."

Whether it was real-time large transfers or quickly setting up a bank account at night, it wasn't a problem as long as you had a Hunter License. This was also the main reason why most amateur hunters wanted to get a license—it was just too convenient.

"An ID card...?"

Moyu remembered that his stepfather had never gotten him an ID card and shook his head, "I don't have that either."

"..."

Wright paused, didn't ask for the reason, and proposed again,

"Then how about cash or gold? But I can only get it during the day. If you have no objections, I'll start preparing now."

"Alright."

Moyu agreed.

30 million jeni, in his previous life, would be equivalent to nearly 2 million in the 1990s.

However, compared to receiving 30 million jeni, Moyu wanted to improve his strength in a short time more.

It was a simple truth—

In the Hunter world, having strength meant you didn't have to worry about money.

For example, Wright's profession, as long as you could successfully capture a bounty hunter, you would earn millions.

If your strength allowed, you could even hunt those with bounties over 100 million.

It's worth noting that—

The reward money you claim is taxable.

Wright didn't mention this to make Moyu remember his kindness when he found out later.

This was also a little trick of Wright's.

After confirming that Moyu chose the easier-to-store gold, Wright dialed a number and, as a professional hunter, solved the problem with just a few words.

"Alright, next is the body outside."

Wright put away his phone, turned his head to look at the courtyard, and smiled, "Leave it to me. I guarantee there won't be a single trace of blood left."

Seeing Wright handle everything so thoroughly, Moyu finally couldn't help but ask, "Just the achievement of capturing a 20 million bounty, shouldn't it be enough to make you go to such lengths?"

"Indeed, but sometimes it depends on the situation."

Wright nodded, naturally not revealing his true thoughts, and explained in a steady tone,

"For example, I'm currently aiming for a one-star rank, and I'm just one step away. So my need for achievements is very high, which is why I'm willing to make this exchange. You know what a one-star rank means, right?"

"It's the title of a one-star hunter."

"Right."

"I see, no wonder you're so willing..."

Moyu showed a look of realization.

Wright smiled, raised his thumb, and pointed to the courtyard, "I'll go outside and handle the body first. A specialist will come to take over afterward."

"Okay."

Moyu nodded.

Wright turned and walked toward the door, thinking to himself,

"Most of the time, he acts very experienced. He looks like he hasn't even reached adulthood, yet he has a caution and sharpness that don't match his age. Come to think of it..."

"I once met a boy like Moyu. If I had to compare, Moyu is a bit more outstanding."

"But in the end, he's still just a kid, so easy to deceive."

Being able to successfully cover his true intentions with the reason of aiming for a one-star rank made Wright feel oddly pleased.

He walked out of the room and headed straight to Ian's body.

But he didn't notice that Moyu was drooping his eyelids, and he didn't think...

"Deceiving a ghost."

Moyu subtly shook his head and muttered to himself.

In front of the three requests he proposed, Wright's claim of urgently needing "achievements" was clearly not convincing enough.

Not only did he agree too readily, but if he really needed "achievements" urgently, he wouldn't have agreed to the "ten days of practice" condition under time pressure.

A more reasonable reaction would have been to agree to "owing a favor" and to increase the amount of jeni offered in exchange for the "achievements."

"Although I don't know what you want from me... from the current situation, I can get more."

Moyu lowered his head and thought silently.

Taking advantage of Wright going to the courtyard to clean up the body, Moyu quietly recalled his shadow and returned to his normal state.

The ability to use Nen...

If you can hide it, hide it.

"Moyu..."

Monica's voice came from the bed.

Bathed in the faint light from outside, Moyu glanced at Monica, then walked to the wall and turned on the wall lamp.

As the wall lamp lit up, the room was filled with soft light again.

"It's all taken care of."

Moyu withdrew his hand and looked at Monica, "Wright said a specialist will come to take over the body. You can go down the mountain with them."

"Okay."

Monica had no reason to refuse and nodded slowly.

Moyu withdrew his gaze, bent down to pick up the pencil and the small knife that had fallen on the ground, put them back on the table, and gently reminded her,

"Before you leave, Wright will probably talk to you. You're a smart person, you know what to do."

Monica had observed the entire "achievement" transaction from the side.

Wright had never paid attention to Monica's presence, and he likely had a way to make her keep the secret.

"Okay, I know what to do."

Monica, who wouldn't dare to provoke a professional hunter, looked at Moyu, hesitated for a moment, and then mustered the courage to ask, "Moyu, can I... come back here in the future?"

"As long as it's within the temple's reception hours, there's no problem."

Moyu finished speaking and turned to leave.

Wright had guaranteed that there would be no blood left when he handled the body.

This made Moyu quite curious, and watching from the side might teach him something.

Monica silently watched Moyu's back.
