A/N: Sorry guy, I could only manage 4 chaos instead of 5 today. Let try again tomorrow.
*****
Listening to Nathan’s words, Michael remained silent for quite a while, before he finally spoke, "It seems that you are taking for a fool?"
Michael’s words were completely unexpected to Nathan, that he was left dumbfounded. He did not understand why Michael reacted in such a way.
With a slight frown on his face, he asked, "Michael, I’m being honest with you. I have good intentions, and I’m offering you a chance for revenge. Why do you say that I’m fooling you?"
"First of all, I don’t believe that there is such a good offer in this world. You should know, I only own a supermarket chain, and a small technology company that has potential, but has not yet succeeded.
If it is compared to the assets that are owned by blood reapers syndicate, this is completely ignorable. As for skills, what I possess are just basics, which should not interest you.
So, I don’t believe that you are being honest with . Why would you want to have join your blood reapers syndicate, if you had good intentions?
Don’t tell that nowadays, the blood reapers syndicate’s second in command has beco a saint, that he is willing to help those in need, without expecting anything in return?"
To this, Nathan smiled. Then he said, "Actually, I knew that soone who could progress so fast, owning a supermarket chain and a technology company would not be an idiot. So, let clear about why we want you into the blood reapers syndicate.
Actually, I have already investigated about you, and I can tell that you have great capabilities. This is exactly why I decided to personally co here to recruit you.
You have great potential. And I believe that as long as you are given resources and are well nurtured, you would be able to make it big. And at that ti, the entire blood reapers syndicate would benefit from this.
Additionally, there is sothing that I did not ntion before. That is, if you make enough contributions within the syndicate, you will definitely have the opportunity to be able to beco a leader of the entire syndicate.
So, what do you think? Are you willing to join?"
Michael let out a helpless sigh after Nathan finished speaking. Then he said, "In my life, there is one thing that I ca to learn. That is, you should never trust a gangster. Even though you are the second in command of the blood reapers syndicate, you are still just a gangster.
It is just that you have left most of the majority of the small dirty works to be done by others, while you yourself deal with the bigger ones.
It is just that, if soone has power, even if they commit a cri, they would easily be able to get out of the problem.
Or maybe, it could be a situation where, a small poor thief, having stolen sothing worth just a few hundred dollars, would appear in court in chains or handcuffs.
But a rich thief, who has embezzled millions of dollars, they would appear in court in a suit, feeling completely carefree.
Anyway, what I’m trying to say is this. You should just leave. There is no need for those petty sches that you are trying to play against . I can easily tell that you are lying to .
I never collaborate or cooperate with soone that I don’t trust. And, with you lying, how can I even trust even a single word that you say?"
With the human insight skill, Michael was able to easily tell that Nathan was lying. Even though this guy was good at creating lies, combining both truths and lies, eventually, he could not lie to Michael.
At the mont, Michael was not really sure about what exactly this guy was lying to him. Was it about the plan that Newton had, to eliminate him, or sothing else?
From the words that Nathan had said, the issue about Newton being involved with the death of his parents was true. But, what Michael doubted was this issue regarding Newton wanting to deal with him, or the invitation to join the blood reapers syndicate.
Either one of them was a lie, or both of them. And for this reason, Michael had no any intention of trusting Nathan. Additionally, even if this guy was actually telling the truth, Michael had no intention of joining any syndicate.
Why would he want to join another force, when he could create his own? Additionally, the blood reapers syndicate was an underworld force. As long as Michael was associated with them, there would be so things that he would not be able to do conveniently.
But more than that, Michael did not want to be controlled by anyone. He liked freedom so much, and the ti that he was being controlled by the shadow assembly gang back in Drenn city was so suffocating to him.
Nathan’s expression visibly shifted when he heard Michael’s words. He had not anticipated that Michael would actually figure him out.
But of course, he was not happy with Michael saying that he was a gangster. The reputation that he had been trained until now was that of a successful business person.
Only those in the top echelons knew that he was a mber of the blood reapers syndicate. But despite them knowing this, they would never ntion it loudly, not ntion directly to his face.
So of course, with Michael calling him a gangster, it was sothing that made Nathan slightly angry.
Though, he did not react. As for the issue of Michael figuring out about all this, he was not much surprised by the it.
Despite all this, he still had the confidence to be able to recruit Michael to join them.
So, with a forced smile, he said, "Okay, I admit that I have lied about sothing. But anyway, you already knew about all this. So of course, all of this is just a by the way.
But what if I tell you that, what you know about the two syndicates and this world, is just one side. What if I reveal the other side of the world to you?
If you join the blood reapers syndicate, you would be able to gain more than just wealth and protection.
Maybe, with the current ability that you have, as long as you continue growing, you might believe that you would be able to eventually deal with the Santos family.
But unfortunately, no matter how wealthy you beco, you will not be able to do any damage to the Santos family. If they want to deal with you, it is just a matter of whether they want to or not.
That is why, if you join the blood Reapers syndicate, we can offer you protection. And more than that, just like I said before, we can give you an opportunity of taking revenge with your own hands. So, what do you think?"
From the way that this guy was speaking, Michael imdiately figured out that he was talking about mutants.
If it was before Marion’s appearance, and Brian knocking at his door the previous day, Michael might have still been in the dark until now.
And if he had been offered such a chance, he would have been tempted. Of course, not tempted to join, but instead, tempted to attack the blood reapers syndicate, starting with Nathan, so that he could find out what the secret was.
But now, he was not the least bit interested. The quality of the mutation serums that the blood reapers syndicate could get was low. And more than that, the amount wasn’t high either.
Considering how big this syndicate was, and the number of mbers that they had, how could they be willing to give Michael the mutation serum, when it was not enough to be able to give it to all old tirs of the syndicate?
Additionally, at the mont, Michael could acquire the serums from the system store, and of a higher grade and quality as well.
Initially, this was what he was supposed to do this morning. But Nathan’s visit disrupted this. Still, he could proceed with the plan after this guy left.
"Okay, there is no need for you to brag like that about mutants. I already know about all this. Therefore, if you have nothing else that you can offer, then if you just leave." Michael shook his head as he responded.
While Michael spoke calmly, Nathan’s brain was shaken by those words. He looked at Michael with a shocked expression appearing on his face, disbelief in his eyes, clear.
This was the bargaining chip that he had all this while. But now, it was actually proven useless? Could it be that the information that he had acquired about this kid be false? Or was it possible that there was information that they had they had not acquired about him?
As Nathan experienced a wave of chaotic emotions, he was puzzled by Michael’s background. At this mont, he did not believe that Michael was simple.
The information that he had was just about Michael owning sky technologies and annex supermarket chain. But apart from that, he did not have any other information on him.
But now, it seed that they had underestimated this kid. With him being able to know about mutants, it was clear that he had connections.
It was just that, Nathan was puzzled. What kind of connections did Michael have? It definitely was not the Santos family, otherwise, they would not be acting against Michael.
"Kid, what else are you hiding?" Nathan asked in a deep voice.
