[Chapter 174]
"Boss, I'm embarrassed to call you! I failed to fulfill the mission you gave me!" Exclaimed Rupert.
"Bullsh*t! The mission failed because there was something wrong with our information. It wasn't your fault, and you paid dearly for it. The organization did you wrong after all."
"Boss, it's been years. Stop mentioning it again. I called to recommend you someone who wants to apply for a freelance position."
"Who is it?"
"A Tiger Rank peak master in his 20s!"
"What? Are you sure? What about this background? Which affluent family is he from? Or is he the successor of some hidden land?"
"He's not rich heir! He has a clean background, but he should have a mentor. I don't know who the mentor is yet. I'll send you his details later."
"Okay! I trust you since you recommended him! When are you coming to Capital City? We haven't seen each other in years! We'll be dead if we don't get together any sooner."
"Boss, I'll stop by if I have the chance!"
"Alright, I'll wait for you!"
Rupert hung up and made another call.
This person was also an old man. However, he was not from Special Task Force but Falcon.
Rupert had gotten a spot for Falcon's test from him.
The two organizations were working together on a mission, but there was something wrong with their information, so they were ambushed. Rupert was seriously wounded trying to save the man.
At this moment, this man was very influential within Falcon.
He had now used up his two most important favors so that the Luther family could have David as a backup.
Special Task Force owed him a favor.
Falcon's top brass owed him another.
These two favors were originally saved for the Luther family's descendants. If a member of the Luther family could use it, even if they could not help the Luther family advance, at the very least they would be able to help the Luther family maintain their current glory for a few more years.
However, over the past thirty years, the Luther family's second generation were all mediocre. Finally, they had Charles amongst the third generation. He was smart but was not strong enough.
Charles wanted to be the pillar of the Luther family. He needed experience, but his time was running out.
His health was deteriorating these days, and his injuries were starting to act up.
Rupert had a feeling that it might be his last chance. His time was up.
Therefore, he was anxious to find someone give his two favors in exchange for the stability of the Luther family.
David was the most suitable candidate he found. He was so young, so strong, and had a mysterious mentor.
Most importantly, he was nice and grateful, which mattered the most.
Rupert would not have gone this far if David was just strong, or he would have caused trouble for himself instead.
He could predict that the Luther family would become the cake surrounding forces tried to swallow up after he died.
Only David could help the Luther family drive them away.
In another decade, Charles should be able to handle things on his own, and the Luther family would finally stabilize.
Rupert had arranged everything in his power for the Luther family beforehand, but it was up to God to see if they could continue to maintain their glory or go even further beyond.
