Chapter 320: Welcome to the Fang hunters
"Uhm excuse me mister, but are you going to buy anything?" Jade asked. "Or will you leave like how everybody does?" He mumbled which didn't go unheard by Jake.
"I'm not actually here to buy anything." Jake said.
"I knew it." Jade mumbled again dejectedly.
"But I'm here to propose an offer to you." Jake smiled.
"What kind of an offer?" Jade asked.
"An offer to become the greatest tech guru I know you are." Jake said with a smile that wasn't visible because of the mask.
Jade just burst out into laughter after hearing what the masked stranger said and he just wafted his hands around.
"Please mister, I'm in no mood for jokes whatsoever. If you are not buying anything, then I will appreciate it if you could kindly leave rather than telling me impossible things." Jade said and then he snatched the drone from Jake's hand.
"Jade way, you have potential. Potential to rival the big three in charge of technologies. I know it after seeing what you have here. All you need right now, is the right motivation and visibility then I know you will soar high in the world." Jake said and Alex paused what he was doing while clenching his hands.
"But how… how am I supposed to soar and receive visibility when these annoying people wouldn't even buy or test my equipment out? I'm so frustrated right now, every day, every single f*cking day, they always walk past my stall without purchasing anything.
They would see my product but ignore it because to them, it isn't useful. As long as it isn't swords, or battle stuff, then it is useless to them. But what they fail to understand is, some of these could be used in battle too." Jade vented out.
"So please, as long as you are neither the big three or any important figure in the world that could help me, then kindly walk past like the others do."
"What if I told you I was an important figure?" Jake asked and then Jade raised an eyebrow in confusion.
With a sigh, Jake looked around to see that nobody was looking his way before he pulled out the mask on his face to reveal his identity to Jade.
But what he didn't expect was the expression on Jade's face as his eyebrows were raised higher again in confusion as he stared at Jake's face.
"Who are you?" He asked.
"What?! What do you mean? Don't you recognize me?" Jake asked almost breaking out into a shout but he quickly composed himself.
"Am I supposed to recognize you? Yoo dude, I don't know you." Jade said.
"But… but… how is this possible? I was all over the news, my face was on display that day so how don't you recognize me?" Jake asked. "Do you know who the werewolf slayer is?"
"Oh yeah, that dude that fought against a Beta werewolf that attacked Aurora and then waged war against iron fist city and then battled against Blip who turned out to be a Beta werewolf himself." Jade replied.
"So how don't you recognize me?" Jake asked.
"Wait! Are you… are you the… the werewolf slayer?" Jade asked as his eyes widen in shock and then Jake nodded his head confirming his theory before putting the mask back on his face.
"But you look young."Jade said slightly doubting Jake's words.
"Didn't you watch the news about the fight against Blip?" Jake asked.
"Nope! I was in my base locked in working on more gadgets and equipment that I might get lucky to sell." Jade replied.
"That explains it." Jake said with a sigh. "Okay, now that you know who I am, how about my offer of earlier? I want you to join the Fang hunters officially as our tech guru."
"No thanks! I don't want to work under anybody, I want to be free and build my own empire under my own name." Jade replied bluntly before Jake even finished his words.
"You didn't even let me finish." Jake said shaking his head. "I know that you wanted to say that because I also felt the same way after all. I didn't want to work under anybody, not the big three, not the independent Guilds. And that's what prompted me to create my own guild."
"I thought you just took over Aurora and decided to turn it into a guild after saving it." Jade said with a raised brow.
"I did take over the reins of Aurora, but u already decided to create my own guild before. So I understand what you are trying to convey. But you won't really be under the Fang hunters, you could create the empire you said you want to build, but we will provide the funds to do that.
We would provide the funds, take care of everything including protection and all. All you have to do, is to create as much gadgets as you want and we will help bring it out to the world. When you have gained your footing, we would begin taking 10 percent of all the profits you make. So this is technically a business deal." Jake explained.
Jade who had his hands crossed, was listening to what the werewolf slayer was saying intently and truth be told, what he was saying was making sense and quite enticing.
"So what do you have to say about this?" Jake asked Jade who was initially deep in thought.
"Assuming it was the big three that approached me, or the other independent Guilds, I would have refused because I know they would overshadow and take the credits of my work." Jade began speaking.
"But even though you are technically now part of the top independent Guilds, you are still a new guild that haven't fully gotten the people's favour. Which will work well for me as you are all growing your power and status, I would also be doing the same alongside your guild. So, I accept your proposal."
"Great! I knew you would accept. So how about we make it official?" Jake asked and then he clicked a tab on his system.
{Contract}
He sent an invitation over to Jade and without hesitation, he signed it.
"It's official then, welcome to the Fang hunters." Jake smiled. Stay updated via My Virtual Library Empire
