Chapter 106: Contracts Signed
"Of course I do. Why don't you do that in the backyard on a rock or a tree?" Saulo denied letting Luan break his wall and got up quickly for fear that his grandson would start to destroy his retirement home.
"Well, I suppose I can do that too." Luan also stood up.
Of Saulo's five guests, only Rogerio understood Saulo's panic. He hadn't seen it personally, but he knew that he must be much stronger than he imagined, and it was even more evident when he saw Saulo's reaction.
Outside, Luan approached the big stone that he lifted the day before. Thinking it would be too simple, he looked at Saulo. "Grandfather, do you mind if I broke this stone in two?"
"I don't care, but can't you just do what I did yesterday?" Saulo asked.
"Well, I can do what I did yesterday, but I wanted to do something different, but never mind." Luan did not persist and just held the stone with his hand in the form of a dragon's claw and lifted the large stone with only one hand.
A wave of sighs was heard as soon as they saw this. It was unbelievable what they were seeing.
"Impossible!" Edson covered his mouth with both hands. It wasn't like he was totally blind and had never seen the supernatural before, but whoever could do something Luan did was usually someone older, at least 30+.
Saulo's guests were expressing their joy, surprise, and confusion in many ways. Seeing the living proof was different from just hearing about it; seeing truly was believing.
"Is that enough for you all to believe now?" Luan dropped the big stone on the ground, but this time set it down slowly. He didn't want to get dirty since he intended to go out to dinner with Ingrid.
Edson got up and went to the big stone. He was a little skeptical and didn't quite believe it. Just when he tried to lift the stone, he started to believe it, and when he couldn't even swing the big stone, he was amazed.
'If they were already surprised by just that, imagine if they see Luan doing something more surprising, like breaking the sound barrier for example...' Ingrid laughed secretly.
"Mr. Luan, don't say anything else; I will cooperate with you." The only woman among the guests, Cassandra Fran?a Gomes, said decidedly.
"I'm glad to hear this." Luan approached and shook her hand in a friendly manner.
"I am, of course, willing to accept," Rogerio said.
Gradually, all five accepted.
Luan asked Ingrid for the document folder and from within he withdrew 5 contracts.
"Read, and if you agree with what is written, sign. Know that everything written in the contract must be followed, or else you will be penalized according to the contract." Luan didn't care that they were important people.
"Why would we forget about things related to the game if we ever try to leak information and have an initial limit of 1000 people in the beginning, and we'll have to force them to sign or else we will not be able to let them play the game? In fact, is this even possible?" Maicon Martins asked. He was a tall man, 196 cm tall, with slightly gray hair and dark green eyes, at 57 years old.
"No matter what your reputation, I don't know you all. I can't trust 100% that you won't leak complete information about the technique afterward. And if you sign, you will find out, and if you do not want to sign, you will not find out. It's that simple," Luan said nonchalantly.
Luan knew how valuable the complete technique would be, and he didn't want to expose everything at once. Also, if a soldier were to train with the technique and try to teach it to someone, he will not succeed either, he would forget about the technique because of the signed contract, and he would never remember it and even if he tried to learn again, he would not succeed.
In fact, if a person were to train another person and did not know how to teach the technique with the difference in weight, size, agility, and age, it may cause future problems.
Even when he left Elias to train 20 people, he transferred the knowledge of each of the twenty people and also the best way to train them individually since the same training that Elias did himself wouldn't necessarily be the same for someone else.
Of course, Luan, to prevent any misfortune from happening, would also give each of these people 1000 contracts. They could only train 1,000 people in the beginning, altogether 5,000 people. And each of these soldiers would need to sign the contract if they were to learn to use the full body technique.
"Urgh! Okay, I'll sign," said Edson. He didn't want to miss the chance to strengthen his battalion, even if it was just a thousand people.
"I will also sign," Rogerio said.
"Me too. Pass me the pen," Cassandra Fran?a Gomes requested.
"Here's one." Luan handed the pen to them.
"*Sigh~* I'm also signing." Atamiro Quintino da Silva also gave in. He was a big, strong man with dark skin. Standing at 199 cm tall, with black hair and a shaved beard, he was currently, 50 years old.
"Since everyone agreed, I will also sign," Fabio Miller dos Santos said. He took the pen handed to him by Luan and started to sign. He was not a very tall man, 179 cm tall, with red hair and light eyes, around 55 years old.
After everyone signed, almost simultaneously, the signed contracts flew and entered their bodies like ghosts. Startled, they hit their chests, even some of them raised their shirts to see and sighed when they realized that their bodies had not suffered any injuries. It was laughable, since they did not feel pain, however, to see something pierce their body left each of them paranoid and doubtful.
"Wow! All of the contract information is recorded in my memory. What a strange feeling..." Rogerio frowned at the strangeness he had experienced when signing the contract.
"The same for me. It seems that Mr. Luan was not lying." Edson abandoned all the hostility he had had before against Luan and stopped treating him like a simple 18-year-old. What he saw and experienced was something that no 18-year-old could do. If he were told that Luan was a man of hundreds of years, disguised as a young adult, he would believe it. In fact, everything he saw today would make more sense if that were the case.
After talking some more and planning to announce the game's launch after a week, they finished their discussion.
"Now, I'm going to pass these flash drives to each of you. You will just need to install the game on computers and connect to the network that will only be appropriate for the people you five choose to train with," Luan explained.
"Luan, come visit me some other day. I would also like you to give me some tips on the technique." Rogerio smiled and reached out to shake Luan's hand.
"Yes, Uncle Rogerio, I will go as soon as I can." Luan shook his hand.
Luan turned to Saulo and said, "Grandfather, my girlfriend and I are leaving now. I'll be back another day to visit you."
"Don't you want to stay and have dinner?" Saulo asked.
"Thanks for the offer, grandfather, but I'm going out to dinner with her." Luan took Ingrid's hand and looked lovingly at her as he spoke.
"Hahaha! I understand, therefore, I do not want to disturb you. Go ahead, and come back whenever you want," Saulo laughed and said.
"Mr. Luan, I'm sorry for my behavior before. I was being too arrogant, and I thought you were a young man wanting to use your family's power to make trouble. Anyway, I misjudged you. I'm sorry," Edson said apologetically.
"Don't worry about it. I understand your skepticism of not believing what I said so easily, and also because I'm young it's even more difficult, but I'm happy that it still gave me an opportunity to prove the contrary," Luan said and shook his hand.
"See you, Grandfather Saulo, Uncle Rogerio and everyone," Ingrid said with a gentle smile.
After finishing saying goodbye to them all, Luan left with Ingrid.
"Mr. Saulo, although that girl is very beautiful, wouldn't it be a loss if she stayed with him, since he is so talented? After all, what family is she from?" After Luan and Ingrid left, in the middle of their conversation, Fabio Miller dos Santos asked this. He intended to introduce his daughter to Luan, who was a beautiful 19-year-old red-haired girl.
"Haha! If you had said that in front of her, you could be in trouble now. With just a wave of her hand, she was able to create a gust of wind that blew away an entire curtain of dust when my grandson Luan demonstrated his strength to me for the first time," Saulo said with a hasty laugh. He was pleased with Ingrid and thought she was a good match for his grandson.
When was her family origin? He didn't care about that. His family was rich enough and powerful enough that he didn't have to join another family with power. As long as his grandson Luan wanted to be with her, he would not be against it. Because of that, he didn't even try to investigate Ingrid's background.
"Wow! She's that incredible?" Fabio's jaw dropped. So that he wouldn't be able to see fully through Ingrid. He knew from her aura that she was unusual, but he didn't expect it to go so far as for her to be able to create a gust of wind with her hand strong enough to dispel a curtain of dust.
