Chapter 1039 – Soul Binding

Well, neither Kayla nor Cynthia and the others found it weird. After seeing what they saw, they had a feeling that the twins would only stay in Cosec City for a brief time. "Very well. Do as you see fit. Our sect will fare extremely well with these Divine Veins in the long term, so thank you."

After that, Rean and Roan sat together with Kayla's group to watch the rest of the competitions. As one could expect, the rest of the Divine Veins ended up in the hands of the top powers of Cosec. However, everyone had the same thought in their minds. Had Rean and Roan participated, would they even get those Divine Veins? No one knew for sure.

Everyone was released after the rewards were given. Some stayed to talk with the City Lord. Others joined other powers through negotiations and things like that. As for Rean and Roan, they were called into a private room by Fabio.

"Welcome, welcome. Take a seat, friends," Fabio told them with a smile.

Rean and Roan then took his offer and sat on one of the sofas, waiting to see what Fabio wanted to talk about.

"Well then. It seems like you don't want to waste much time, so I'll be brief. As you know, I'm part of the Kamos Royal Family, the leading power of this kingdom. I would like to extend you two an invitation." Fabio then took out a blue token and passed it to the twins.

Seeing the twins' puzzled expressions, he began to explain, "After seeing your strengths and your abilities in the various side occupations, I immediately recognized that a small city like this one shouldn't be a place for you to stay. Your power couldn't be said to be between the top geniuses of our Kamos Royal Family, but it's definitely not much worse. With that said, how do you feel about working for me?"

"Working for you?" That was the first time the twins got this kind of offer. "Why would you want two Middle Stage Soul Transformation Realm cultivators to work for you? Your cultivation alone should be more than enough for you to wipe us out with a finger. We can't see what advantage you would get from it."

Fabio shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "Of course, you have little value for me right now. However, your futures are completely different. You know, I'm someone who admires talent, especially since I'm not someone with it. Because of that, I always recruit talents to join my camp. That's why I take such jobs like working as a representative of the Kamos Family during assemblies. After all, our Kamos Family doesn't really lack subordinates who could take care of such mundane tasks."

Rean was surprised to hear Fabio tell them that he didn't have talent. "Aren't you selling yourself too cheap? I don't know what realm it is, but I'm pretty sure you're above the Transition Realm. You give me a far more dangerous feeling than the City Lord and the top three sects' Transition Realm cultivators. Besides, you don't seem that old either."

"Hahaha!" Fabio couldn't help but laugh out loud in response. "Talent? Me? You must be jesting! I do have royal blood, but I'm far below the average cultivators of the Royal Family."

Roan then glanced at Fabio for a moment, analyzing his body before saying, "Not too bad. The amount of effort you put into your cultivation to make up for your lack of aptitude is commendable." Roan's eyes couldn't be fooled. He knew how to recognize someone who didn't only rely on resources and talent.

Fabio was taken aback by Roan's words. However, he smiled soon after. "Well, thanks for the compliment. So, what do you think? If you work for me, you definitely wouldn't have to worry about resources."

Rean shook his head in response as he told Fabio, "Resources isn't something we care too much about. Also, we're confident in our abilities to cultivate fast enough. After all, we are the same as you. Putting effort had never been an issue for us." Well, Rean also thought about Celis and Kentucky. Even now, while they were talking with him, those two were cultivating back in Lukimira Sect. Because their cultivations were connected, one couldn't advance without the other, so their cultivations were being pulled by them.

Fabio didn't seem surprised by Rean and Roan's words. "Of course, you know how to put effort. Otherwise, your power couldn't be explained. As for the matter of resources, that's only one of the advantages. You would have access to many other perks. Facilities, information, treasures, they're all there for you to take."

At this moment, Rean and Roan's interest was only on one thing, information! They had to admit that having Fabio's support would make things a lot easier to search for Calina, Qia, and the others. However, the information would be of no use if they were bound to Fabio, not being able to leave.

Sometime later, Roan told Fabio, "To be honest, we'll be leaving this kingdom at some point as well. With that said, I don't see us reaching an agreement since we won't stay by your side forever."

"Oh! So that's what you were worried about?" Fabio then shook his head after hearing Roan's words. "Don't worry. If being bound by the agreement is what you are afraid of, then you don't need to be. After all, you will be free to come and go as you please."

Rean and Roan found that weird. "How would such a deal benefit you? We could totally use you to get the resources and information we need and then disappear, you know. Since we're free to come and go, you wouldn't be able to say that we fled either as we can simply say we're going to travel far away."

Fabio shrugged his shoulders in response to those words, telling the two of them, "Sure enough, you two are definitely not someone from this country, nor are you from anywhere near Yukirrom Region."

Rean and Roan weren't exactly trying to hide it. Besides, if Fabio wanted to, there were plenty of ways for him to find that out, so they weren't surprised he noticed. The question was how he was so sure.

"I can see the confusion in your eyes. The way I know of it is very simple.. If you were from here, there would be no way you didn't know about the Soul Binding Contract," Fabio told them soon after.
