Chapter 50 - Identity
Chapter 50: Identity
Angelina asked Avril, “Sister, is the Special Forces Squadron Leader a high position?”
She noticed that there were only a few dozen people in the Special Forces. They were all under the command of the City Guard General.
“The squadron leader position shouldn’t be that prominent?”
Avril glanced at Angelina. Although she did not feel like explaining it to her, she felt that it was necessary to let her know the gap between her and Vincent.
“The Special Forces Squadron Leader position in Hero City is only second to Mayor Johnny and the Captain of the Special Forces.”
“The Captain of the Special Forces position has always been vacant. Therefore, Vincent would actually become the number two figure in Hero City.”
“As for the Captain of the Special Forces, only ten people have taken up the position in the past few decades.”
Angelina still did not understand the importance of the position. If the position was so important, why would he still be under the command of the City Guard General?
“Although the Special Forces are led by Mayor Johnny, they have the ability to fight on their own.”
Avril continued to explain, “In a war of this scale, it is actually very important for the Special Forces to join the fight.”
“But, because the Special Forces doesn’t have a captain, they become a pile of loose sand when they start attacking. That is why the City Guard General took over as their Captain for the time being.”
Angelina and Nabil nodded and looked at Vincent with admiration.
He was a first-year freshman at Quinn. He did not even start school yet, but he had already been offered a high position by Mayor Johnny. It was enough to show how important Vincent was to them.
However, Vincent refused to accept the position.
He did not come to Quinn just because he wanted to become stronger and have a bright future, he also wanted to know the whereabouts of his missing parents.
If St. John and Mokissner could provide Vincent with better treatment, he would have gone to one of those schools instead.
Just as he was about to refuse the offer, Teacher Chris stood up.
“City Lord Johnny, you’re not doing it properly!” said Teacher Chris with a smile.
“You’re poaching people from Quinn?”
“Aren’t you afraid that Principal Sibis will come after you?”
Mayor Johnny laughed.
“General Sibis won’t come after me just because of this,” said Johnny indifferently.
“After all, he’s more than willing to allow them to fight monsters.”
Teacher Chris did not know how to refute Mayor Johnny.
Principal Sibis did indeed encourage students to fight monsters.
Fighting monsters alone in the wild was not as challenging as fighting monsters whilst defending the city.
If it was any other student, Teacher Chris might have let them go, but not Vincent.
She hinted to Johnny that she wanted to speak to him alone. She then turned to leave.
Mayor Johnny was stunned. What was so important that they had to speak alone?
Nevertheless, he still took the initiative to follow Teacher Chris.
The two walked to the side. Everyone was staring at them.
Teacher Chris looked at Mayor Johnny with a serious expression.
“He’s the child of that couple. The couple has done enough for humans. You can’t let their child do the same.”
Mayor Johnny’s expression changed. He turned to look at Vincent and saw him talking to the others.
“You’re not lying to me? I thought the couple had no children?”
Teacher Chris sighed. “That couple dedicated their lives to save humanity. They did not say anything because they were afraid that other people would treat their children differently.”
“We, Quinn, found out about his identity by accident.”
She turned to look at Vincent. “If possible, we hope that he can live his life comfortably,” said Teacher Chris.
“Alright, Chris, you’ve convinced me.” Johnny looked at Vincent with respect.
His respect was not for Vincent, but his parents.
“It’s such a pity. He has such great talent. If he worked at the front lines, he would definitely become the most dazzling figure.”
“We can’t say for sure what kind of life he wants to lead in the future, but we have no right to interfere.”
Teacher Chris’s tone was a bit confusing. “However, if he was willing, we won’t stop him.”
“It’s just that the child has been obsessed with his parents. Maybe in the future…”
Teacher Chris did not finish her sentence, but Mayor Johnny could understand her clearly.
“He doesn’t know his identity?”
Johnny was surprised.
Teacher Chris nodded. She did not say anything further.
Vincent on the other hand was being “interrogated” by Angelina and the others.
“Vincent, you’re so strong!”
Nabil looked at Vincent with a slight admiration.
Angelina hugged Vincent tightly. Her huge breasts were pressing against Vincent’s arms.
Angelina was very proud of Vincent’s strength. She acted as if she was the one who received special treatment from Mayor Johnny.
Avril looked at Angelina with a gloomy face.
Does this girl not hold back?
Where was the pride of the Gaia clan?
She was so brazen. It is such a disgrace to the Gaia clan.
Although she felt like Angelina’s actions were inappropriate, she still felt jealous after seeing Angelina hugged Vincent.
Chris looked at Vincent, his face full of excitement. His muscles were trembling.
“Vincent, let’s fight!”
Those who knew Chris’s personality looked at him helplessly.
Those who did not know him were dumbfounded and speechless.
What is wrong with this person?
He charged so fiercely when facing the Monster Horde.
After the Monster Horde retreated, he wanted to start a fight with his own people.
It seemed like he could only do things through fighting!
Of course, Vincent did not pay any attention to Chris.
The guy would not stop talking to him as long as he paid attention to him.
He decided to just ignore him.
Nyssa and her friends congratulated Vincent and stood aside. They watch the situation unfold quietly.
“To be honest, Vincent, what do you think about Mayor Johnny’s offer?” asked Nabil curiously.
Everyone kept quiet after hearing Nabil’s question.
They looked at Vincent and waited for his answer.
Anyone would think that Mayor Johnny’s offer was a good thing.
It was as if someone had the chance to ascend into the heavens in a single step.
Everything was happening so much faster than in school.
As long as one was not a fool, they knew what their choice would be.
Even though everyone knew what Vincent’s answer will be, they still wanted to hear it from Vincent himself.
Vincent did not hesitate at all. He just smiled and shook his head.
“Although the offer is very tempting, I do not intend to leave Quinn.”
“What?”
No one expected Vincent to give such an answer. They were all shocked.
“Vincent, you have to think it through! This is a rare opportunity that doesn’t come often,” advised Hixton.
“That’s right! Vincent, we’ve always wanted to join the front line but we’re not as qualified. This is our dream!”
Oscanthus glanced over at Teacher Chris and Mayor Johnny who were talking.
“Angelina, you need to advise your boyfriend to not do anything stupid!”
Nyssa looked at Angelina. She was hoping that Angelina would say something.
Angelina blushed. She raised her head to look at Vincent. She could see the determination in Vincent’s face.
She shook her head. “I’ll support any decision that Vincent makes.”
The others also tried to persuade Vincent, hoping that he would change his mind.
Vincent just smiled. He did not say anything.
At that moment, Mayor Johnny and Teacher Chris walked back towards them. They heard them trying to persuade Vincent to take up the offer.
“Hahaha! Good lad, you have your own plan. You are not tempted by the benefits! Not bad! Not bad!”
Mayor Johnny laughed heartily.
Vincent thought that he would upset Mayor Johnny when he rejected his offer.
However, he did not expect Mayor Johnny to accept his response so well. It was beyond his expectations.
“I’m sorry, Mayor Johnny. I’ve let you down.”
Mayor Johnny waved his hand and looked at the crowd.
“The city guards have duties to prevent the monsters from returning. Everyone else, please gather at the square. Let the celebration party begin!”
“Oh!”
Everyone shouted.
