"You refuse?"
Sergeant Quaye looked at Yebou in surprise. He hadn't expected such an answer from Yebou, much less say it boldly and confidently. After all, his offer is an enticing one.
Additionally, joining the police is a dream for many people including the young and the old. However, due to the strict criteria placed by the department, many fail to fulfill that dream.
Even he as a Sergeant would have found it difficult to help him enroll into the police force if not for the recommendation slot he possesses.
"Yes!" Yebou nodded as he explained. "Joining the police is a respectable profession. I acknowledge that. However, I have many responsibilities on my shoulders.
I can't possibly leave my family on their own. I want to focus on them especially my sister so she wouldn't deviate from societal norms. Moreover, I plan to leave soon for the city."
"Good," Sergeant Quaye nodded, then he confidently stated, " I understand you would want to have your eyes on your sister 24/7.
That is not a problem because one doesn't need to stay in the police block, you could choose to rent your apartment. It applies to anyone whether veteran or newbie.
In addition, I can even offer you another recommendation slot if you accept the offer" Sergeant Quaye stated as he moved his eyes across Joe.
Besides, you don't need to serve in this village, with the recommendation slot, you could serve the police force in almost every part of the country.
"Another recommendation slot? Serve the police force in almost every part of the country? Yebou was momentarily stupified. He couldn't believe what Sergeant Quaye was saying.
Have the benefits associated with the recommendation slots changed that much?
In his previous life, when one receives a recommendation slot, it is only eligible in the region the recommendation was issued from.
For instance, with Sergeant Quaye's recommendation slot. It would only be eligible within the Eastern region. It couldn't be used in the other regions.
"That's right." Sergeant Quaye smiled. He couldn't stop smiling after seeing Yebou's dazed expression.
He had heard bits of the history between Yebou's family and Grandma Akosua's family. Moreover, he knew with such a talent, it wouldn't be long before Yebou made up his mind to leave for the city.
Hence, he had gone through the offer numerous times carefully outlining what could entrance the young man and it seemed to be working.
"It seems I've underestimated him," Yebou thought as he looked at the man before him. Initially, he thought he had a strong background since he could possess something that even Superintendents would have difficulty in acquiring.
However, when it was made known that he possessed another one, he nearly fainted from shock. He didn't dare to think about the power behind the man.
This time around Yebou was in a dilemma. The offer was too good to refuse.
However, before he could make a decision, the mysterious voice in his head spoke.
SYSTEM (MISSION ALERT)
[MISSION: Accept the Sergeant's offer]
[DEADLINE: 24 hours, Count down begins: 23hrs 59 minutes 59..58..57..56..55..54s]
[REWARD: Full level up]
" deadline? When did the system start issuing a deadline? Yebou frowned as he stared at the message right below the corner of his eye.
This was the first time the system was giving an auto mentum for a mission since its activation. He wasn't happy about it because he didn't know what would happen should he fail the mission.
Moreover, in the future, when he gets a difficult mission and the system issues a deadline, he won't be able to live a peaceful life unless he completes the mission.
"Luckily, this isn't a difficult mission." Yebou thought.
"What do you say? Mr. Bullet. Is the offer good enough? Sergeant Quaye stated as he saw Yebou's blank expression.
"It's good. I....
WARNING!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!
Before Yebou could reply to Sergeant Quaye's offer, there was an emergency warning from the system.
