Chapter 282 - 282 282 Xu Mo Returns from His Studies
282: Chapter 282: Xu Mo Returns from His Studies 282: Chapter 282: Xu Mo Returns from His Studies After constructing a new spell, Zhao Guang immediately returned home and polished it with the Power of Faith.
At this rate, just two more enhancement sessions and he might break through to an intermediate mage.
If people knew how quickly a pure Spiritual Mage like himself could advance, it would certainly shock them.
But there was a problem: high-level knowledge was essentially unbuyable.
Even if you could occasionally find a bargain, no one knew what traps might be hidden within.
It seemed, finding an opportunity to join a Magic Organization was necessary.
Just thinking about those secretive Magic Organizations, Zhao Guang really didn’t want to get involved, fearing something about him might be discovered.
There were too many incongruities about him.
“Forget it, when we get to the bridge, we’ll cross it.
There’s always a way,” he thought.
In the following days, Zhao Guang continued his research, thinking these days would continue for a while.
But unexpectedly one day, Sister Yan suddenly called, asking him to pick someone up.
“What?
Xu Mo has finished learning?
Don’t tell me he did something to get kicked out by you.”
“Don’t you have confidence in the talent you found?
Xu Mo really has strong learning abilities.
He’s mastered the common languages already, and the rest can’t be learned in a short time, so let him practice on his own.”
“Besides, he’s gotten the basics down pretty well.
Anyway, you didn’t need a professional specialist, so it’s good for him to learn and practice slowly.”
Zhao Yan had always known Zhao Guang’s situation, and if she really had high personnel requirements, she wouldn’t rely on last-minute training.
Are there really so few talented people in society nowadays?
It’s an era of talent explosion, where there’s an excess no one can use up.
“Alright, I got it.” Zhao Guang could only close his book and then drove to the company.
Upon arrival, he found himself the center of attention.
Knowing the big boss was coming, many idle employees were watching.
Others, unable to find a spot on the ground, looked from above.
Heads popped out of the windows, all filled with onlookers.
“Do we have this many people in our company?” Zhao Guang said, somewhat surprised.
“Not at all, most of them are not from our company.
But our company is so large, people are curious about you, the elusive big boss.”
“Is that so, then let’s hurry and go.”
Zhao Guang would rather not be regarded as an exhibit to be gawked at, unless he was in disguise.
Accompanied by Xu Mo, Zhao Guang quickly left under the regretful gaze of the crowd.
“I told you our big boss is handsome, didn’t I?”
“Did you fall for him, you little hussy?
Too bad there’s too big a gap in status.”
“Hmph, the big boss isn’t even married, and I heard he doesn’t even have a girlfriend.
Can’t my figure make the cut?”
The surrounding people were astonished: “No way.
Such a handsome and wealthy man doesn’t have a girlfriend?
How high must the big boss’s standards be?” Many recoiled, but even more were intrigued.
“I heard it from Sister Yan, she wouldn’t lie.
They say the boss’s family is going frantic.”
“I’m saying, what if your big boss doesn’t like women?”
That remark ignited an uproar, as everyone knew they likely had no chance, but what if?
Soon, the one who spoke was scolded into hiding into the crowd and couldn’t be found.
Since then, no one dared to speak such words, at least not publicly.
Elsewhere, Zhao Guang, taking Xu Mo with him, asked while walking back, “How’s your learning coming along?”
“The teacher said I’ve pretty much got the basics down.”
After a pause, Xu Mo continued, “Also, I get headaches less often now, and learning doesn’t seem so difficult; it’s quite easy once I grasp the concept.”
Zhao Guang nodded; that was indeed the case, he had felt it too.
However, it was different for him, as his learning and comprehension had improved before he began studying.
Of course, at first, it was overwhelming, but thinking of the spells, Zhao Guang’s interest was forcibly uplifted.
After getting through the initial period, he found that learning could actually be quite enjoyable.
It was a sensation anyone could experience, yet most couldn’t even surpass the threshold.
But the reduction in headache frequency seemed odd to Zhao Guang because it was a sign of the contract’s activation.
It appeared this guy still wasn’t fully acclimated; otherwise, the headaches wouldn’t just decrease, they would stop entirely.
“Good, since you’ve completed the task I gave you, I have another matter for you.
The documents are beside you, take a look first.”
Xu Mo picked them up and, as he read, his expression grew peculiar.
“Master, you’re not really sending me to a place like Myanmar, are you?
The Gaoyaotzi gangs are rampant there.”
“Don’t worry, get in touch with Habog, nobody dares to cause trouble on his turf.
Besides, why would the wealthy be targeted by them?
Those are their clients.”
After a moment’s thought, Zhao Guang continued, “Temporarily, your monthly salary will be ten thousand, with future raises based on performance and ability.
Plus, if you feel unsafe, feel free to form a security team; it’s more convenient there.”
Indeed, most don’t need to be reported there, as the place is overflowing with various armed forces.
The salary was actually quite low for others, but not for Xu Mo.
Given that this guy was a scoundrel, such good treatment was entirely because he was venturing into risk.
Xu Mo seemed about to say something, but a glare from Zhao Guang silenced him.
This was his master, holding life-and-death power over him.
If Xu Mo ignored his words, the thought of the agony, the potential fatal outcome, left him lamenting his fate.
“Also, do you still feel like gambling?” Zhao Guang inquired softly.
Yet upon hearing the word “gambling,” Xu Mo instinctively raised his hand to his head, “No, I don’t want to think about it, not ever again.” It is clear he was truly frightened.
Whenever the urge hit, that excruciating pain would spread through his body.
Initially unable to control his thoughts, he’d suffer through the pain daily.
Such unforgettable agony, he suspected, would haunt him for life.
Afraid to even hear the word now, Xu Mo may have developed a mental condition, but Zhao Guang saw it as a blessing.
A small mental issue was far preferable to his family’s ruin.
