Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Charles took out his phone and glanced at the time, it wasn't particularly late.

Without hesitation, he dialed the number on Shannon's business card. After a short while, the call connected.

"Charles? Is that you?" Shannon asked.

Charles replied, "Do you have some time tonight? I want to discuss a few things with you."

"We? You mean Finn too? Perfect, we have some things we want to talk to you about as well. You pick the place, and we'll be there shortly." Shannon responded.

Charles thought for a moment and decided to set the location at the café next to Cyber Academy.

At this time, the café should still be open, and the second floor has private rooms, which would be a good choice for a discussion.

If possible, Charles wanted to choose a private room on the second floor of the Cyber Academy cafeteria.

There, he wouldn't have to worry about anyone overhearing their conversation.

Unfortunately, the academy generally doesn't allow outsiders to enter.

After tidying up a bit, Charles went directly to the café next to the academy and found a private room.

As soon as he entered the room, he summoned Mousie.

"Master, did you call me out late at night for something?" Mousie climbed onto Charles's shoulder and asked.

Charles nodded and replied, "In a bit, I need you to slip into the shadows and check if there are any suspicious people near this room. If you see anyone, just let me know. I appreciate your help."

"Hehe, being able to help you is the happiest thing for me!" After saying that, Mousie's figure vanished into the darkness, scanning for suspicious individuals.

About ten minutes later, Shannon and Finn arrived.

Once they entered the room, Finn instinctively looked around, seeming a bit puzzled.

"What's wrong? Is something off?" Shannon asked quietly.

Finn nodded and replied with a straight face, "I feel like something is watching me, but there's nothing in this room."

Hearing this, Charles was somewhat surprised.

Finn was right, he must be sensing Mousie, who had slipped into the shadows. It was unexpected that he had such keen perception.

After all, Mousie's Darkness Cloak isn't something just anyone can detect.

Today, both sides were here to exchange information and have a good discussion. Charles spoke up directly, "You're not mistaken, that's my mystical beast. I have it keeping an eye on the surroundings to prevent anyone from eavesdropping."

"Oh, I see! But how come I didn't notice anything?" Shannon looked up at Charles, then glanced at Finn beside him.

He had a feeling that he and these two people were not of the same kind!

"Alright, let's get down to business." Charles said, looking at Shannon.

The meaning of this statement was understood by all three.

Shannon was the first to speak, "What happened in the Stone Kingdom is that Constellation is using the blood of children to create a special miracle drug. However, since it was discovered too late, all the missing children have been killed."

"Genosha is the same, only 26 children survived. However, the Constellation organization was ambushed by a powerful individual from Genosha, and one Level 8 Beast Master managed to escape." Charles shared the intelligence from Genosha.

His feelings were correct, Constellation indeed seemed to have influence across the Seven Kingdoms and was secretly plotting something.

"Wow! I knew it! Looking at the news reports online, I figured things couldn't be that simple. I didn't expect Genosha to actually deal a heavy blow to Constellation!" Shannon said excitedly.

He believed that an organization as hidden and mysterious as Constellation would definitely not be discovered by Genosha.

After all, the powerful Stone Kingdom hadn't managed to uncover their plot in time, let alone the relatively weaker Genosha.

Everything should be connected to Charles. After learning that Charles had rescued 26 children, Shannon had specifically investigated all the information about the situation. Now, he was most curious about how Charles had managed to do it.

Before he could ask, Charles spoke up with a heavy tone, "The power of the Constellation organization is stronger than you imagine. What's in Genosha is just a small branch."

Then he revealed the structure of the Constellation organization.

At that moment, Shannon and Finn fell into silence, clearly unaware of this information.

What the twenty-eight mansions represented was only a part of it, just some branches!

A Level 8 Beast Master is already the peak combat power of a nation, yet they are merely an elder of the Constellation's branch in Genosha?

"W-where did you get this information?" Shannon asked with a bitter smile.

He wished more than anything that this information was just something Charles had overheard and wasn't true.

Charles explained seriously, "How I know is not convenient to say right now, but this intelligence should be accurate."

"I feel like I'm about to get involved in a shocking conspiracy." Shannon said slowly.

Finn, who had been silent, turned to Shannon and said with concern, "Why don't we just leave it at that?"

Shannon was his only friend, and he didn't want him to fall into danger.

Moreover, unlike Shannon, Finn didn't have a direct grudge against Constellation. It would be perfectly normal to back out. Enjoy new tales from m-v l'-NovelFire

At that moment, Charles was also looking at Shannon.

He thought that as a member of the group, Shannon might choose to withdraw.

In fact, that wouldn't be shameful at all, when they were investigating the missing children case, that Level 5 Beast Master Jenson had also chosen to back out.

After a moment of waiting,

Shannon exhaled and looked down at his right hand.

He slowly said, "You know what? That little girl is like my own sister to me. She's really adorable. Every day she would ask her sister, 'When will Shannon Gege come to play with me?'"

"She even said that when she grows up, she wants to marry me."

"I thought it was wrong to do that, so I directly rejected her and told her that there would be better people waiting for her in the future."

"But when I saw her again, she had become a corpse, and..."

As he spoke, Shannon's eyes began to redden.

Though he was proud, he placed great importance on emotions.

It was precisely because of this that he wanted to investigate information regarding Constellation.

Taking a deep breath, Shannon said with unusual determination, "I won't back out. You can trust me, I will help you. It feels like fate has arranged for me to meet you and Finn."

The last sentence was directed at Charles.

Charles was taken aback by this. His heart raced as he quickly asked, "Who did you hear that from just now?"

Shannon looked confused and replied, "Finn said it in the hotel earlier. I thought it made a lot of sense."

Finn explained, "It just popped into my head, so I said it. Is there a problem with that?"

Charles sighed in relief. When he heard Shannon say those words, he suddenly remembered that Level 8 Beast Master from Constellation.

That person had also said something similar at the time,

"Everything is arranged by fate!"

Hearing those words again gave Charles a special feeling. He shook his head, trying to push those thoughts out of his mind.

Since this was about Constellation, Charles felt it was necessary to probe Shannon and Finn a bit.

He wanted to find out if they knew about those strange existences, like the tentacled creatures or familiars.

However, thinking about his past experiences, especially that time when everything around him felt alive, and the shadows of all objects seemed to be writhing,

Charles decided against it. He had the protection of the Mysterious Fragment, so talking about those things wouldn't affect him.

But Shannon and Finn might not have that protection, if his words triggered a memory for them, it could lead to complications.

"By the way, Finn, if you manage to successfully challenge Reaper's Scythe, can we make a deal?" Charles asked.

He listed the alchemy materials that Professor Colton needed, indicating that he would do his best to meet Finn's requests in exchange.

Unexpectedly, Finn didn't agree right away, instead, he asked,:

"Charles, you noticed that one-armed boy today too. I don't have complete confidence that I can defeat him."

Charles recalled seeing that one-armed boy at night and the sense of danger he brought with him. He replied:

"That person is very strong and quite dangerous."

Only Shannon looked at Charles, then at Finn, and skeptically said:

"Wait, how do you both see that? I saw that person too, but I didn't feel anything at all! What exactly is a sense of danger?"

Finn sighed a bit helplessly. He pointed at Shannon and explained to Charles, "He's someone who has never sensed danger since he was little. Even in front of a Level 8 Beast Master, he dares to do some unusual things."

Charles was somewhat surprised. He instantly thought this might be a unique talent.

If someone couldn't feel the pressure and danger from their opponent, they might be able to unleash their full potential and perhaps create miracles.

"Finn, if you succeed, will you agree to exchange with me? I owe you a favor." Charles said.

"I can only say I'll give it my all. That person—I feel he will be the biggest obstacle. If I can't do it, then there's nothing I can do." Finn replied.

Charles scratched his head and explained, "It's okay, if you can't do it, that's fine. I'll sign up for Reaper's Scythe in a few days as well."

"What! You're going to participate too?" Shannon exclaimed, his eyes wide.

Even Finn was quite surprised. He was participating to get closer to the Dawn organization.

Was Charles entering to gather the alchemy materials his teacher needed?

Or was there another reason? Could it be that Charles knew about the existence of Dawn as well?
