Chapter 109: Is this how you promote me? The first interview...
When Godwin first saw two familiar faces heading straight for him, his heartbeat inexplicably quickened. He wasn't satisfied with his less-than-imposing humanoid form. It would have been fine facing those ants who didn't recognize him, but for his servants to see this side of him...
Godwin felt strangely ashamed.
Wait, he's human now, how on earth did they recognize him?
After Godwin realized this, he looked at the servants walking towards him and found that their eyes were not as gentle and respectful as before. On the contrary, they dared to look him up and down from head to toe.
That fiery gaze seriously offended Godwin. The young man's golden eyes flashed with displeasure, and when he looked at the two people opposite him, there was a bit of coercion in his eyes.
Catherine originally thought that the boy in front of her was good-looking. Now looking at the boy who was as elegant and cute as a cat, her fur stood up like a cat, and her heart was simply overwhelmed by his cuteness.
It would be so interesting if there were a few more new colleagues like this on Longshan.
Seeing his threats were ineffective and the humans showing no fear of him, Godwin grew furious. He glared at the two servants approaching him, determined to punish these reckless individuals upon his return.
They will face the harshest punishment for stepping into Dragon Mountain with their left foot first.
Everyone else stayed in the box on the second floor and did not go down. Shen Jiang and Kui Ke stood by the window and observed below.
Shen Jiang felt a strange feeling flash through her heart, and she asked, "Are you sure you can't detect the boy's magic level?"
Quick hummed indifferently.
"Will that be..."
Priest said disdainfully, "He's just an ordinary person. You don't think that kid can reach the level of a Grand Mage at such a young age? If there were such a stunning talent in the First Empire, I would have heard of it. Don't worry, such a person has not been born yet."
Shen Jiang didn't say anything, but he had to admit that Priest's confident look was very believable.
As a dragon, Quick's strength far surpassed that of a human mage. Only someone with greater magical power could have been so blinded by his opponent's strength without using magic. Rather than assuming he was a young prodigy, it would have been more reasonable to assume he was a genuine, ordinary person.
But she always felt that something was strange, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
In the end, Shen Jiang chose to trust the facts over her intuition. This young man, with his innocent appearance and the lazy demeanor of a boy next door, didn't seem particularly special. Perhaps it was the natural nobility about him that made her subconsciously feel he couldn't be an ordinary person.
The ordinary man with outstanding appearance seemed to have a bad temper. Shen Jiang found that his eyes were particularly fierce. Even though there was no extra expression or extraordinary behavior, his whole body exuded a murderous aura of "I will never let you go."
I don't know how Ellis and the others communicate with others. Suddenly, the black-haired boy raised his head and his eyes met Shen Jiang's on the second floor. Shen Jiang watched helplessly as his fierce and sharp golden eyes softened in an instant, and finally turned into a somewhat annoyed dodge.
Shen Jiang was confused and had many questions in his mind.
Ellis’s brainwashing skills are pretty good. Look, the angry cat suddenly becomes a shy cat.
Quick suddenly said, "I feel like I've seen this guy somewhere."
Shen Jiang looked at him doubtfully. Just now, she also felt that this young man gave her an inexplicable feeling of familiarity. When she heard Quick say this, she became suspicious.
"Where have you seen him?"
Quick scratched his head, unable to recall where he had seen it before. After a long moment, he suddenly realized, "Maybe it appeared near that forest recently. There have been humans spying on me around there lately."
Priest snorted in disdain.
Quick didn't tolerate him and went over to fight with him. He still remembered that this guy had fought with him before.
Shen Jiang had a headache. This private room was so small, there was no room for them to perform. When the kids came in and saw the chaos, they would probably turn around and run away immediately.
Shen Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "It's working hours, both of you, shut up right there. Otherwise, I'll dock your wages."
Priest thought about his potion, Quick thought about his Philosopher's Stone, and they both kept silent, and sat down in the seats farthest away from each other.
When Godwin walked into the box leisurely, he found that it was very quiet inside. Everyone's eyes were on him. There was curiosity, inquiry and appreciation in their eyes. He accepted these eyes very calmly, but what he thought in his heart was: I must not let these guys know my true identity.
Seeing someone being brought up by Ellis, Shen Jiang guessed that he might be interested in this job, so she took the initiative to greet him with a friendly and gentle smile, "Sit down. You can ask anything you want."
Godwin didn't hear what Servant No. 1 said on the street just now. Ever since he saw Shen Jiang, his attention has been on Shen Jiang.
Godwin was very dissatisfied when he saw the believers showing him a gentle, warm and charming smile like an older sister.
Why should she freely unleash her charm on a stranger? Even if it was him, he still felt an uneasy feeling in his heart, as if the treasure he thought belonged only to him was actually openly admired by everyone without him noticing?
The ahoge on the black-haired boy's head stood up unruly like a hedgehog's quills, and his golden eyes contained a hint of dissatisfaction that Shen Jiang couldn't understand.
She asked gently, "Do you have a job now?"
The arrogant cat shook his head. He had countless wealth in this world, and besides, who was qualified to let him work for him?
Shen Jiang's eyes lit up. "Unemployed young man, not bad, not bad." She'd wait for her to confirm the situation.
"Do you have a title?"
Maomao shook his head again.
"Is there a manor that can be used as a stable asset?"
Maomao continued to shake his head.
Shen Jiang made some inquiries and discovered that this guy was definitely worth recruiting. He was a "three-no" young man with no assets, no income, and no job. Although he had a bad temper, he was quiet. Most importantly, he was healthy and had no family, making him perfect for long-term work and living in an isolated place like Longshan.
It would be a shame not to take such a good seedling back! Shen Jiang winked at Ellis, who understood and coughed lightly.
"Congratulations, you've successfully passed our test. We will offer you a high-paying job. Although this job requires long-term travel, the daily work is simple, the relationships with colleagues are harmonious, the work scenery is beautiful, and you may even see great beings that you will never see in your lifetime. What do you think? Are you interested in joining us?"
Godwin looked completely bewildered, unable to believe what he had heard.
Could it be that these unreliable guys want to take him to his own Longshan and let him clear the weeds for himself?
They will all suffer the most severe punishment for stepping their left feet into his Dragon Mountain!
Seeing the black-haired boy so excited that he couldn't speak, Shen Jiang nodded with satisfaction, obviously feeling that the matter was almost done.
Catherine said in a friendly manner: "Why don't you have lunch with us? Feel free to ask us anything you want to know."
Godwin had no interest in lunch. He said unhappily, "I'm leaving."
He also had to find materials for this bad woman who casually showed her charming smile to others, so he had no time to play the game of finding the dragon servant with them.
When this was said, the others were shocked. What was going on? We were chatting happily, why did he suddenly leave?
Godwin gritted his teeth and said, "Weeding is a menial job. I won't do it."
When Shen Jiang heard this reason, he felt that his judgment was correct. He was indeed a middle school boy.
It seems that we need to add the final chips at the right time.
Shen Jiang glanced at the door and lowered his voice, "Do you think this is just a simple cleaning job?"
The black-haired boy's face was full of disdain: What else?
Shen Jiang shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "If it's just the weeds on a random hilltop, is there any need to clean it up? Is there such a handsome reward as five bags of refined white flour a month?"
Beatrice replied at the right moment, "Of course not."
Godwin raised his chin, as if he knew what the human was going to say next.
Shen Jiang said without pretense, "The person you serve is a very important person! He is the most powerful and unparalleled being in the world. Even the most powerful mages in this empire combined are no match for him."
Godwin knew who she was praising. Not to mention, as a third party, listening to the believer's various praises, he felt extremely satisfied.
The phantom tail behind him almost swept out a shadow.
"Is he really as powerful as you say?"
Shen Jiang saw that his face looked surprisingly good and knew that he was moved.
"No."
Godwin's face froze.
"He's a thousand times, ten thousand times better than I said."
All the barbs on Godwin's body were smoothed out, and he felt an indescribable sense of comfort. His followers' praise for him outside was even more disgusting than it was in front of him. He could temporarily forgive the followers' minor mistake of stepping into the dragon mountain with their left foot.
Shen Jiang continued, "You may not be able to tell, but we are all magicians."
At just the right moment, a small cluster of vines sprouted from the tips of her fingers.
The others were puzzled, but they all followed suit and showed off their own magic.
Shen Jiang smiled and said, "This is all because we performed exceptionally well during our work, and with this person's blessing, we were able to become magicians."
Godwin was stunned for a moment, confused as to what their becoming wizards had to do with him, but he soon understood. As his followers and servants, these people had extremely high aspirations in life, which was why they were fortunate enough to become wizards. How could this not be a blessing from the dragon?
His followers could even attribute such a thing to him, which only meant that her love had become blatant.
But clearing the weeds was impossible, not even in this lifetime. Even though these guys didn't recognize his human form, Silver Dragon did! That guy had watched him grow up, and even though he'd never appeared in human form in front of him, he knew what he looked like as a child.
With Perrin's clever mind, there was no way he wouldn't recognize him.
Shen Jiang looked at the thoughtful black-haired boy in front of him with anticipation.
"You can think about it for a few days. We will take everyone away for training in a month. You can give us an answer before then."
Godwin looked at her gentle appearance, which was completely different from her usual respectful appearance. Somehow, he nodded as if possessed by a ghost.
