Chapter 506: Generous Rewards (1/2)
”Well, Grand Elder Flame never really had the sharpest memory, so it does make sense…” Henry continued talking to himself softly.
Because its only him and Raven within this room, the latter was able to hear everything he's whispering to himself, which also gave him some ideas but he's wasn't really in any position to inquire about such things. He could still remember some people telling him that now is not yet the time for him to know somethings. Raven knows how to mind his own business so he kept things to himself. Plus, he promised to keep their topic as a secret so he had to be careful.
Henry murmured some more things before seeming awakened from his stupor. He cleared his throat and said: ”My bad, I was caught in my own thoughts. Anyway, let's move on to the more important things…”
”Being a Cleanser is good. I was actually considering about suggesting the idea to you guys and the other Units under me but you beat me to it. Have you informed your teammates yet?”
Raven shook his head, saying: ”No, not yet. I haven't had the time to do so and I am also thinking of ways on how to tell them without revealing the fact that I am a Seed Bearer.”
”That's good to know, else it would've been a bit complicated if you revealed to them that information already.” Henry stated, ”Let me just remind you again, you have to minimize the amount of people that knows you are a Seed Bearer. Only when you are alone would you be allowed to use the flames, understood?”
”Yes, Senior Brother.” Raven affirmed, he knows that Henry was being serious about this matter, which also confirms his guess that his status must be linked to a deep matter for the sect. Something that he's not allowed to know just yet.
”In time, you'll know why we're being careful. Don't worry, with your talent, it won't last long. Just be careful alright?”
Raven nodded again, greatly appreciating Henry's warning.
”Anyways, being a Cleanser is actually a very profitable job.” Henry stated with a smile, ”In fact, due to you being a Seed Bearer, each patient you cure will earn you not only a handsome amount of Merit Points but also Unit Merit Points. I'll be counting your work as a Cleanser to your team contributions, so work hard and treat as many patients as you could.”
Raven's eyes brightened as he heard him say this, unable to contain his curiosity anymore he asked: ”How much Merit Points do I receive per patient? Senior Sister Monica hadn't informed me anything yet.”
”500 - 5,000 Merit Points per patient.” Henry answered, causing Raven to inhale sharply.
”That much?”
”It depends on the initial state of the patient actually.” Henry stated, ”Depending on the severity of their injury, the amount of Merit Point rewards you'll get will vary. As for Unit Merit Points, you'll be awarded with 5,000 for every ten lives you successfully saved.”
”Holy…”
”Actually, that's with the council being stingy.” Henry shook his head, ”We're trying to increase it but we're met with obstacles. Don't worry, you'll be received updates if any changes happen. For now, just work hard and cure as many lives as you could. When time comes and you managed to become an Inner Disciple, that amount will increase. So work hard okay?”
”I will.” Raven nodded with gleaming eyes.
”Additionally, if your Cleansing Flame Seed blooms, make sure that you inform me, Monica or even Theo about it immediately. You must inform us as soon as you possibly could, do you understand?” Henry stated with a bit of urgency containing his tone.
Raven understand the weight of this matter and nodded to him, etching the warning to his mind.
”Great. That's all I have to say.” Henry then stood up and smiled at him, ”Thank you for your time, do work hard, Junior Brother. I'll be expecting great things from you.”
As soon as he said that, Henry disappeared from the base, leaving Raven alone to ponder about his situation.
Raven was silent for a bit before a long sigh came out of his lips.
'There's too many variables to pay attention too.' He thought to himself, 'I haven't even stayed at the sect for that long and I already feel restrained. It's actually getting annoying.'
Raven didn't like the feeling of being observed closely, it makes him feel like a caged animal. Even though the Ancient Elysium Sect offers them a ton of opportunities to grow stronger, the shackles that comes with it are getting tighter as well, and he didn't like that even one bit.
'Well, it's not like I can go against the sect alone.' Raven shook his head in disappointment, 'And even if I could, I won't. Their role is too damn important for the entirety of the Divine Realm. If it weren't for them, the Devil Emperor would've already been freed from its imprisonment and lay waste to everything.
That's something that must be absolutely prevented from happening...
