“Do you think my talent is inferior to Duke Piggy’s, Young Master Watson?” Deena inquired, her tone unmistakable.
She was aware that Duke Piggy possessed the ability to transform the food he consumed. Those who did not know Duke Piggy only knew that he could turn the food he ate into his own power. They had no idea that transformation was the essence of that power. Deena understood that, but she did not believe Duke Piggy’s power was much more significant than hers. It did not deserve the hundred times difference in salary.
Duke Piggy could get one million gold coins a month, while she could only get ten thousand gold coins. That made her feel a little unbalanced.
“To be honest, I am right! If you do not trust my judgment, I can bring you somewhere later to verify it. That way, you will understand why I believe Duke Piggy’s talent is worth a million gold coins. In addition, I would like to bring you to your future workplace so you’d get familiarized with it and arrange some work for you.”
Watson saw through Deena’s thoughts and said that with a smile.
The most important thing for a qualified superior was to make his subordinates believe in him. Only then could he push his subordinates to obey his orders without question.
“It is fine with me. Anyway, there was only one potion-making class this morning, and I was kicked out. I will have a lot of free time after this.” Deena paused for a moment before shrugging her shoulders. She was also curious to see how Watson would prove it.
Half an hour later, in the Eight-story Courtyard in the Sky where the Severed Fingers Gang’s headquarters were located.
“I had no idea such a structure existed in the capital. It is truly incredible.” Deena sighed as she looked up at the eight courtyards stacked together and floating in the air above her head. Aside from the gorgeous courtyard and attic, there were also many weapons that emitted platinum-tier light, as well as the sun and moon fruits.
“Are they members of the underground force known as the Severed Fingers Gang? Why is it different from what I imagined?” Deena was more concerned with the people carrying various goods than the things above her head.
Watson informed her and Duke Piggy that they had arrived at the Severed Fingers Gang’s headquarters. She was taken aback when she first heard the news. She had no idea Watson was the leader of the infamous group.
“Greetings, Young Master Watson.”
While Deena was watching, a few people dressed luxuriously came in front of Watson and bowed respectfully to him.
“Allow me to introduce you. These are my subordinates. Their names are—Watson was about to introduce the people in front of him when Deena exclaimed, “Veronica, are you Miss Veronica? I had no idea you were with this gang.”
Deena stared at Veronica, one of the people in charge of the Severed Fingers Gang. Veronica looked surprised, and she opened her mouth slightly. “Deena, why are you here? Are you here with Young Master Watson?”
“Veronica, do you know each other?” Watson asked from the side.
“Well, Young Master Watson, my job requires me to manage banks and underground casinos, so I know a lot of the noblemen. To maintain my relationship with them, I frequently visit the noblemen’s home as a guest! I am a regular visitor at Count Byron’s manor, where Miss Deena resides. Deena, how is your father?”
Deena’s face flushed with embarrassment when her father was mentioned. “Thank you for your concern, Miss Veronica. My father is still the same. He drinks heavily, and he also enjoys gambling. He had just sold my mother’s favorite solid wood furniture for gambling funds the other day. As a result, they had a heated argument about it.”
“It is extremely difficult to have a man who enjoys gambling.” Veronica consoled her. Klein removed his top hat just as Watson introduced Duke Piggy. “Mr. Payge, I did not expect to see you here,” he bowed to Duke Piggy. Duke Constantine, your father, is a regular customer of ours. He has an annual revenue of at least ten million.”
“It’s really hard to have a man who likes to gamble at home.” Veronica comforted him from the side. When Watson introduced Duke Piggy, Klein took off his top hat. He bowed to Duke Piggy and said, “Mr. Page, I did not expect to see you here. Your father, Duke Constantine, is a big customer of our bank. The annual turnover is no less than ten million.”
“Mr. Klein, you must be joking.” Duke Piggy stuffed the drumstick into his mouth and smiled shyly.
“Since you all know each other, then this is an easy matter.”
Watson smiled. “Let me make an announcement. From now on, Deena and Duke Piggy will be my subordinates, and they will also be your colleagues! Deena’s mission is to become an intelligence officer and join forces with Elven. Please take good care of her, Elven.”
“Don’t worry, Young Master Watson. I will not disappoint you.”
Elven walked forward and bowed respectfully. A girl with a single horn on her head stood beside her. Watson could tell at a glance that the girl’s true form was an angelic unicorn.
“Dear Elven, I’ve arranged for a friend of mine to come here as an intelligence officer. I wonder how she’s doing?”
“Young Master Watson is talking about Miss Nightingale, right? She is a natural, and her performance is very outstanding. She has only been here for one day, but the efficiency of the intelligence network I’m responsible for has increased by 30 percent. I’ve now appointed her as the assistant in charge of the intelligence network, and she helps to lead the intelligence network in the royal city,” Elven said.
Watson nodded. When Nightingale was at the border, she was the most outstanding assassin, but she worked for the border count. Naturally, the border count valued talented people.
Previously, Nightingale had been by his side, and he had always overshadowed her brilliance. It was time for Nightingale to shine.
Then, Watson turned in the direction of Deena and Duke Piggy. Nightingale was not in the capital at that moment, so she should be monitoring the people connected to King Landhar III. The most important thing was not to consider Nightingale’s matter but to solve the problem between Deena and Duke Piggy.
“Deena, as I said just now, I will prove the value of Duke Piggy’s talent to you. But before that, I have to give you a gift.”
Watson smiled and opened his right hand. The Book of Wisdom appeared in his hand. There was a dragon-wrapped potion, and a black and white bead was inside it.
“That is the Dragon Transformation Potion and the Angel Potion. The former can turn a human into a diamond-tier dragon. I can give it to Duke Piggy! The latter is a prop that can turn a human into an angel with eternal life. Deena, that is for you.”
After giving the two potions to Duke Piggy and Deena, Watson looked at them with a smile on his face.
“A potion that can turn a person into a platinum-tier angel. Isn’t that a potion that is currently being sold in the city? I heard that the potion couldn’t be bought for 10 million gold coins each. The Abedor family sells it. I didn’t expect that I would be able to get it.” Deena was not surprised that there was a Blessings from the Gods and Demons potion there. Many people in the capital knew that the Abedor family had a good relationship with Watson. She was surprised that Watson was willing to give that precious potion to her. Her monthly salary was only 10,000 gold coins, and that potion worth 10 million gold coins was equivalent to a lifetime of salary.
“It can turn a person into a diamond-tier dragon. Is that true?”
Duke Piggy gulped. The silver-tier potion that his teacher had asked him to develop in the potion-making class was already very powerful.. However, when compared to that potion in front of him, nothing could come close; not even the Blessings from the Gods and Demons would come close.
