Chapter 42 An Offer
42 An Offer
Little did Levi know that Charlotte sighed after he disappeared.
It was like she had just let go of a very heavy burden.
Then her face reddened slightly. She pressed her lips together as if she couldn't believe what had just happened.
Shua!
Shinta appeared in front of her in a flying state, looking at her with an expression that looked like a smile.
"You did great, miss. He looks embarrassed by your seduction," she said.
"I can't believe I did this stupid thing to Anna's son," Charlotte replied.
"This is natural for each of you. If you are to be serious husband and wife, you need to woo each other and show affection. That man should understand, he will definitely seduce you later."
"Seduce me?" Charlotte could not seem to think of the moment when Levi seduced her later.
Her eyes flickered when she thought of that, they dimmed while her breathing became somewhat chaotic.
Levi himself currently came to a large restaurant for breakfast.
He ate bread and eggs plus a cup of warm milk.
The restaurant was rather full even though it was early in the morning.
Most people were just ordinary humans, but there were some cultivators who ate breakfast alone like Levi.
When eating they almost always looked at their cell phones, not caring about the surroundings.
This morning, there was indeed interesting news that had spread in the Moon City cultivation forums.
It was about a woman who was said to be young yet was decided to be the new head of the Moon City Branch Immortal Guild.
The woman's identity had not yet been revealed, but it was certain that she would become one of the biggest power holders in this city and the surrounding area, competing with Charlotte.
"Mm!"
Levi who was having breakfast while looking at his cell phone was slightly startled by the sudden appearance of someone in front of his table.
It was a middle-aged man wearing long pants and a tight brown T-shirt with some symbols.
Of course, it was not a t-shirt that could be worn by just anyone.
It was a police t-shirt that was the inner layer of their uniform.
The middle-aged man had quite a muscular body where his abdomen was flat and slender while his chest was broad.
Although there was no aura on his body, Levi could faintly sense that he was a strong cultivator. Probably at the 25th stage.
"Can I sit here?" the man said when Levi looked at him. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Now the restaurant had more visitors, so people who didn't know each other needed to share a table.
Levi didn't mind the man's request, he let him sit down.
However, he didn't see him ordering food.
It seemed that the purpose was not to have breakfast.
"Levi, your performance in the Strongest Warrior Tower is truly impressive. You've accomplished what no one else has. And I can feel that you have become much stronger. It seems that after passing through that tower, you've continued to improve your cultivation elsewhere," he said.
That he knew him did not surprise Levi at all. After all, he was very famous now with his videos having spread everywhere.
"Is there something, sir?" Levi asked him in response.
This man clearly did not come just to say that. He must have had a special purpose, perhaps he even first investigated where he was so that he could find him in this restaurant.
"Introductions, my name is Owen, Moon City Police Chief." The man extended his hand towards him to shake hands after he asked him.
It was beyond Levi's expectations that he was the Chief of Police of this city.
That meant he had the rank of colonel.
In Europe, the police force had a structure similar to that of the military, headed by a Police General as the highest rank who had a four-star insignia.
In this era of cultivation, the police force had increased so much that they could almost be compared to the army.
They had a lot of cultivators and in terms of influence, the army was probably less compared to them as they were the ones dealing with various things in the lives of cultivators and society in Europe.
The military itself is more focused on developing forces in border areas, whether it's Europe's borders with other countries or Earth's borders with the other two worlds in anticipation of war between countries or between worlds.
If it was the latter, then the European military would cooperate with other countries' militaries.
Levi shook his hand and replied, "Levi!"
They shook hands briefly.
After that, the man with the name Owen said, "I have an offer for you."
"What offer is that, sir?" Levi replied with a question.
Actually he already had a guess, but of course he couldn't immediately give an answer before the offer was mentioned.
"You know, even though we police have become stronger. Those guilds are still stronger than us because they have more members and all their members are people with power. Oppression of the weaker ones happens frequently, but we often fail to punish those from the guilds. Therefore, if we don't want to be considered useless by society, we also need to gather more cultivators on our side. If there are too many, we can't accommodate them because our budget is limited, so what we need are cultivators with great power.
"You are one of the cultivators with great potential. Even in a single day, you've grown to be quite strong, we naturally hope that you're willing to help us maintain security in society so that the strong no longer oppress the weak.
"Of course, we know individuals like you don't like to be tied down, so we will give you a special status. You can still be an ordinary civilian who is not duty-bound. All you need to do is come when we need help."
The man first told him all the current problems of the police force and then started trying to recruit him subtly and guaranteed that he was not attached.
Although Levi had already guessed he wanted to be recruited and he was not interested in joining, he could not help but think about considering this offer.
Only, it was only a fleeting thought. He still decided that he would not join even after hearing everything the man said.
Even in the slightest, he did not want to be connected to a faction because it was a karmic tie that could be troublesome.
"Looks like you're not interested," the man continued when he saw his expression.
He already had too much experience trying to recruit people that he could instantly know their decision just by looking at their blinking eyes.
"If you join, you might be able to find your parents sooner since we have detected traces of them recently and are still under investigation to find them," the man added suddenly as Levi was about to nod.
