"You sure don't mind sharing a bit of a secret with , right?"
Clovis smiled wryly before pushing her back. "Of course, I'd mind."
"What?" Hana was taken aback by such a response, considering they had been partners for a while. In addition, she had helped him a lot.
Clovis sighed. "That's because it's related to my blood."
"Should I find a few ancient bat beast souls and concentrate their beast soul into the face before gathering a bunch of beautiful won for you? They will have longer fangs like a vampire and suck you dry. Much better than getting your blood drained from your body through any other ans."
"Are you serious you're going to do that?" Clovis shook his head helplessly.
"If I do that, you're going to get angry." Hana looked disappointed.
"Either way, I don't understand it completely myself, nor do I intend to share it right now."
"Right now?" Hana changed her expression instantly. He said 'right now' so there might be a chance in the future.
"I can't help but wonder if you have been restraining yourself since you visited us back then." Even Clovis was a bit overwheld by her pursuit of money.
"Ahem." As if she had gotten what she wanted, she imdiately behaved. Then again, Clovis didn't really mind since she was being honest. It would be much more troubleso if she ended up tricking him secretly.
He perfectly knew how smart Hana was after all. Even with the help of her grandfather, the fact that she was able to make a company of this size showed her competence.
Clovis raised one finger. "Anyway, I can share one piece of information about the beast itself. I think this will make interesting research."
"What is that?"
"What do you think if a beast has a talent similar to our evolution rate?"
"A talent?" Hana looked down, falling into deep thought. "What is the talent's purpose? Sothing like getting into a higher tier like a human? But the beast has a beast soul as well. Or does that talent signify those two?"
As expected of her, she could figure out the topic he wanted to present without him telling her straight away.
Clovis nodded. "What if I told you that the beast has a talent that… not only would it affect its ability to reach a higher rank, but also their chance to get a beast soul?"
"!!!" Hana looked shocked for a second before rubbing her chin. "Is this the reason why the beast soul sotis appears on lower tier beasts as well? But they are quite rare because if their talents were higher, they would reach a higher tier.
"If that's the case, scientists all around the world should have figured this out. However, the fact that this knowledge is not public yet is due to either their failure to figure out the beast's talent or it's because they're lacking information.
"However, we have the research regarding the beast soul. Since the talent also increases the chance of obtaining a beast soul, can we figure sothing out by researching the beast soul?" Hana paused for a mont before asking, "Do you have any way to determine their talent?"
Clovis had that item, but there was no way he would give it to her. In fact, she didn't even know about the artifacts he had.
Clovis shook his head. "Unfortunately, I don't have one. Besides, I don't have any research to show you regarding the beast talent. The only thing I can confirm is that the talent exists and it influences the chance of reaching a higher tier and acquiring a beast soul."
Hana furrowed her eyebrows. Because he couldn't back up his claim, she was a bit skeptical.
But she couldn't find any reason for Clovis to lie to her. If he was honest and allowed her to grow even more, she would be more beneficial to him.
It seed that she had to take this information with a grain of salt and pour so resources into the research.
Once the talent was confird, they could actually sohow make a beast acquire their beast soul through trials and errors. In other words, there was a chance they could actually harvest the beast soul more efficiently.
Hana understood the benefits of this information.
"Alright. I've taken note of that information. Is there anything else you'd like to add?"
"No at the mont."
"Alright. In that case, I'll be bringing you around the mansion to introduce you to its facilities." Hana smirked. She seed to be excited for everything she had prepared in this mansion.
And she truly didn't disappoint. On the first floor alone, there was a full gym with all sorts of equipnt.
She even prepared a simulation room for training their reaction speed by summoning a laser gun that they had to dodge from all over the room.
After that, they went to the back of the house, which turned out to be a swimming pool either to relieve stress or train.
The second floor was filled with bedrooms, each was quite spacious and comfortable.
Nevertheless, the biggest surprise she had prepared was the basent.
Yeah, she created a spacious basent, almost as big as the mansion itself. They had been reinforced by a high quality material, which would withstand all kinds of harsh training and sparring.
It was the perfect space for them. Even Reolf would be able to run around this place.
The mansion was beyond what Clovis hoped for.
After touring the mansion, Hana beca excited again as she wanted to go back and review the possibility of research.
"Anyway, I'll be sending you the data for the bus. You can modify it however you want. Tomorrow, I'll send you a car that will take you to the lab. We'll et there." She spoke so fast that Clovis had a hard ti following her. She didn't even bother repeating it as she imdiately took her leave.
Clovis smiled wryly, wondering what would happen if Hana knew about the artifacts, technique books, or even the foods. She would definitely do anything to have Another World Mall.
Then again, he didn't plan to reveal it for the ti being.
