Beast Taming Begins with Involuting Pets

Chapter 15 Compensation Dispute (2)

"Huh? Interesting." The man walked up to Lin Manman and bent over to look at her. "You learned the art of identification? No, it doesn't look like the art of identification. Can you tell me about it?"

Lin Manman was shocked. This was a master whose strength she could not guess. Not only could the other party discover the system's detection, but he could also fight back against her through the system.

"Does it hurt? I'm sorry, I should have been gentler. You're too weak. Eat this."

Lin Manman's eyes went dark due to her headache. Suddenly, a slender and strong hand appeared in her sight. On the palm was a light blue crystal like a sugar pill. Lin Manman didn't hesitate and ate it directly. With the opponent's strength, it would be easier to kill her than to kill an ant. Why go through so much trouble to harm her?

After taking the crystal, Lin Manman immediately felt refreshed. When she looked at the system interface again, she found that her spiritual attribute had increased by 20 points. Lin Manman was delighted. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.

She quickly took the rainbow jade from the man and apologized, "I'm sorry, my pet was trying to protect me, not attack you."

Everyone around was shocked by what happened just in a short moment. Mother Lin and Xu Yuemei came to Lin Manman's side. Lin Manman comforted the aggrieved Hongyu while telling her mother and aunt that she was fine.

The short and fat man who was rescued touched his neck in fear and dared not speak again. After all, he was just an ordinary person, so it would be better for him to be cautious in the future.

Uncle Lin and his family looked at each other with complicated expressions.

"I'm very sorry and regretful about your brother's matter. But this was indeed an accident. The Dream Tapir was not in the competition venue from the beginning. Instead, a new secret realm suddenly appeared in the competition venue, and the Dream Tapir ran out when the secret realm was formed. Because the energy around the secret realm is very unstable, the news is temporarily blocked." The man's voice was very low and hoarse, and it was unclear whether it was originally like this or if he deliberately concealed his voice.

"Okay, then we don't want money. We want natural treasures that can heal the soul." Lin Manman frowned. Her father also disappeared in a newly appeared secret realm. The speed of secret realms appearing in the past two years seems to have increased.

The man shook his head. "The natural treasures that can heal soul abilities are too rare. This is also the reason why the beastmasters are slow to improve their strength. I can decide to increase the compensation to 20 million. Can you accept it?"

After the man finished speaking, the expressions of the people walking with him changed several times, but none of them dared to say anything.

Lin Manman lowered her eyelids in disappointment.

"Twenty million is enough, Manman, don't be sad. With this twenty million, it's only a matter of time before your brother slowly recovers in the hospital." Aunt Lin was afraid that Lin Manman would refuse money but would give up treasures.

Lin Manman glanced at her expressionlessly, "Can I make one more request?"

"Tell me."

"If there is a natural treasure that can heal the soul, can you give me a message?"

The man was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand. "Give me your contact number."

Lin Manman knew that the other party agreed, so she quickly handed over her bracelet.

"If there is any news, someone will contact you. If you accept the compensation plan, please give me your account information."

"Thank you."

The man nodded and stopped talking. He turned around and left with the people behind him.

When only Lin Manman's family and Uncle Lin were left in the ward, Uncle Lin smiled and said, "Manman has awakened her profession, such a big thing, you didn't even tell us, sister-in-law."

"Yes, yes, Manman is amazing. She has already contracted three spirit beasts right after awakening. She will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future." Aunt Lin also agreed with a smile. "Sister-in-law, you are so lucky. Ruochen is already a genius, and Manman's talent is not bad either. I really envy you. Oh..."

Second Aunt Lin sighed and looked at Grandma Lin. Grandma Lin wiped her eyes and didn't look at her.

"Unlike our Hanhan, who can only try his luck in the Awakening Temple in three days. Even if he awakens his profession by chance, his father and I can't afford to support him with our salary."

Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin are both ordinary people, with a monthly salary of only a few thousand Chinese yuan. But because Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin lived with their family before he passed away, Dad Lin gives them a living allowance every month, so their life has never been bad.

After Lin's father disappeared years ago, Lin's mother has been providing for him at the same level as before. It would be a bit ridiculous to say that she cannot afford to support a professional in high school.

"When Haizi was still alive, he said that as long as the children in his family could go to vocational high school, he would pay for all tuition and miscellaneous fees." Grandma Lin spoke at this time, her tone flat.

"Isn't it the day after tomorrow when we will participate in the awakening ceremony? My father's words must count. As long as my second brother can awaken his profession, all the tuition and miscellaneous fees for high school will be paid by me, his younger sister."

Lin Manman smiled slightly, and her words, which were sharp but gentle, made the three people's expressions change.

Grandma Lin opened her mouth and glanced at Lin Manman and the three spirit beasts beside her. "Okay, if your second brother awakens his profession, we will come over the day after tomorrow to announce the good news to you."

Aunt Lin was startled and wanted to say something but was grabbed by Uncle Lin.

"Sister-in-law, that's it. We will go back first and you should go to bed early." Uncle Lin pulled Aunt Lin and hurried out the door.

"What are you doing? Don't pull me. Didn't we agree on this when we came here..."

Before leaving, Grandma Lin passed by Lin Manman and looked at him with complicated eyes, as if she wanted to say something but said nothing. In the end, only a staggering back was left behind.

Lin Manman knew that she was regretting in her heart that she was not a boy.

Although this society has many restrictions on professionals, such as professionals cannot beat ordinary people without reason and fighting is prohibited in the main urban area, ordinary people and professionals enjoy the same civil rights.

It seems that ordinary people work and live the same as professionals, but being a professional means more powerful force, more income, and more possibilities. So even though Lin Manman is only fifteen years old, she is a professional and can take care of a family.

In the night, a giant dragon that blended into the darkness was soaring above the city of Jinling. On the dragon's back stood the man that Lin Manman met today. At the moment, the man was talking to someone.

"I heard about your situation. How is it going?"

"According to the energy level, it should have reached A-level, but the secret realm has suddenly upgraded more than once this year, so I dare not draw a conclusion now."

"Is the barrier ready?"

"It's already been completed, and I also helped the branch solve a small problem along the way."

"How to say?"

"The place where the secret realm descended this time happened to be the venue of the Intermediate Professional Competition. Several ownerless spirit beasts escaped, and the organizers did not respond in time, which affected several contestants. One of them suffered a soul injury and fell into a coma. Currently, he can only be maintained by the hospital's maintenance machine."

"The soul is wounded... What a pity. Even if I can wake up in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to achieve anything."

"Yeah, what a pity. I heard he's a genius elemental mage who has awakened his talent for amplification. But the interesting thing is... he has a sister who has also awakened her profession."

"Oh? If it's interesting to you, then it must be something really special."

"Her soul seems to be naturally powerful. She has just awakened her professional aura, but she has contracted three spirit beasts, one of which is a level 2 spirit beast."

"Hmm? You've already contracted a level 2 spirit beast right after awakening your profession? That's quite interesting indeed."

"If I'm not mistaken, she may have awakened a talent, which is most likely related to exploration."

"Haha, you caught her while she was investigating you?"

"Yes, she suffered a lot. Her three spirit beasts didn't seem to be of low rank, but her family could barely afford her brother's medical treatment."

"It sounds like this little girl has a lot of secrets. I want to get to know her."

“Maybe we’ll meet in the future.”

"Ha ha……"
