Chapter 642: Research Trainee

"Leo, are you sure about it? Why don't you think for a while before coming to that conclusion?"Just as Leo was able to agree with Elder Obe, Uncle Grey asked Leo to rethink his decision.

Even though the Research Master is a highly-valued profession in the world, it is still incomparable to the profession of Beast Tamers. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

As a Beast Tamer, one needs to spend a lot of time training along with his contracted beasts. So, there won't be much time for a Beast Tamer to read or conduct experiments which are the main requirements for the Research Master.

In this world, the Beast Tamers have the final say in everything and they could order the Beast Research Masters to help them evolve their contracted beasts.

Moreover, for the Research Masters, to conduct their experiments, they need the help of the Beast Tamers who could venture deeper into the dangerous regions of the world to retrieve them.

Most importantly, as the son of Valerian Stormrider, Leo needs to follow the path of Beast Tamers and become as strong as possible.

This was Uncle Grey's thought process.

"It's alright, Uncle Grey. I can manage both."

Leo tried to assure Uncle Grey; however, Uncle Grey remained unconvinced.

"How about we let Leo focus on the path of Research Master until the [Awakening Ceremony]? After he awakens a beast tamer's talent, he will spend 80 percent of his efforts on the path of Beast Tamers and the remaining 20 percent of efforts would be for the path of Research Master."

Elder Obe also agrees with Uncle Grey's line of thought. Hence, he suggested something that Uncle Grey could agree with.

"Leo, promise me that you will put 80 percent of your efforts into the path of Beast Tamers after awakening your Beast Tamer talent."

Uncle Grey thought about it for a moment and looked at Leo before asking him to promise.

Since his nephew was interested in the beast's research and evolution, Uncle Grey decided to let him have his way until the awakening ceremony.

"I promise."

Leo didn't have to think much about it as he directly promised Uncle Grey.

Even though Leo was interested in becoming a Research Master that doesn't mean he was not interested in becoming a powerful beast tamer.

He knew very well that only by becoming a powerful beast tamer, he could freely venture in this world to complete his ascending mission.

"Good."

Uncle Grey knew Leo always kept his word and was not worried much about it as he was looking forward to seeing what type of talent Leo would awaken during the [Awakening Ceremony].

Also, Uncle Grey requested Elder Obe to keep Leo's involvement in the evolution of the Nightmare Butterfly a secret for now and announce that Leo's Dream Butterfly had naturally evolved into a Nightmare Butterfly.

It was because Uncle Grey didn't want to bring attention to Leo at such a young age.

What's more there was already an assassination attempt before Leo could do anything and if outsiders knew about Leo's achievement, the other families might go to any lengths to kill Leo as they didn't want another Valerian in the world.

Among the four powerful families in Eldoria, the Stormrider Family was a family with less history as it was created within the last century.

Even though it was able to keep its footing against others, as time passed, it needed a new family head and Uncle Grey's hopes were on Leo since he was not only hardworking but he was also intelligent.

Hence, nothing should happen to Leo until he reaches a position where he could protect himself. Then, Leo would protect the family.

"Leo, if you can share the details of the evolution process, I will give you 100,000 contribution points."

Elder Obe also agreed with Uncle Grey and decided to keep it a secret for now as he decided to buy the knowledge regarding the evolution process of the Nightmare Butterfly.

"Sure."

Leo thought about it for a moment before agreeing to it as he didn't mention the 100 units of God Energy in the information.

Leo believed that as a Research Master, Elder Obe could figure out that the ingredients alone won't be enough to complete the evolution and it requires some powerful energy.

Hence, he was not worried that Elder Obe would blindly try out the evolution process with the ingredients he mentioned.

Soon, the transaction was completed under the supervision of Uncle Grey.

"As a Research Trainee, you will get free pet eggs from the three types of pets we have in our Beast Ranch. Go and pick them."

After receiving the information about evolution from Leo, Elder Obe became excited as he wanted to start studying them as soon as possible.

However, he didn't forget about the benefits of being a research trainee.

"Then, I will take them."

Leo was not modest as he picked three pet eggs along with 1000 hatching stones which Elder Obe didn't mind Leo taking as there were still lots of those hatching stones in the Beast Ranch.

"Elder Obe, I will hatch them after returning to my courtyard."

Leo knew he could not hide that he could hatch mid-level beasts from these eggs directly; however, he still didn't want to openly do it in front of them.

"Sure."

As Elder Obe was also in a rush, he didn't mind and allowed Leo to leave the Beast Ranch after meeting the 10 research trainees.

All of them were in their 20s and half of them had already evolved five low-level beasts into mid-level beasts.

When he heard that they got a junior trainee who was less than 10 years old, they were happy and when they realized that their junior trainee was the son of the family head, they became excited.

Even though the path of research mater was highly revered, very few were interested in it and now, the son of the family head also follows the same path as them.

So, of course, they were happy and informed Leo to ask them any questions he had.

"Of course, I will, senior brothers."

Leo nodded his head as he left with Uncle Grey.
