BXBX NOVEL Chapter 269 Meeting A Big Shot
Between the crowd\'s excitement at the stadium, a platinum-haired boy could be seen following a brown-haired middle-aged lady wearing eyeglasses with a dark green frame. Her emerald-like eyes could be seen; she was wearing a formal dress.
They entered a car again, which took them to another area. They stopped in front of a big building. Rishi followed the professor; they took a lift to reach the fifth floor. She looked at the room numbers as if searching for a particular one; The search was over soon, and she rechecked the room number.
She stopped in front of a room guarded by two security guards. She showed them a card; one security guard moved before scanning it. He used a device to confirm if these two were called; He then opened the door and allowed them to enter.
They appeared in a big room, and a bald old man could be seen sitting on his chair. He had a brown beard and wore eyeglasses; He welcomed them and asked them to sit.
Rishi looked around as Prof. Anya and he conversed; from the transparent window on the right, he could see a big garden. He could see multiple baby beasts playing there; among them were even elite-grade beasts; he was enjoying the view when he heard.
"So you are Rishab, the founder of the new evolution path of Boxing Frog. Its a pleasure to meet you; I am Manav Rana, the chief executive of the Almora City branch."
Rishi looked at the man looking at him; He nodded and replied, "It\'s an honor to meet you, sir."
Mr. Rana asked, "I wanted to meet you eagerly, but I never got time. I heard a lot about you from Professor Anya; I was curious about you from then on; beast cultivators like you are rare and take big risks in their tests."
"I was never concerned about being unable to pass the test; my main goal was to satisfy my curiosity. Even without the test, I would have researched that topic." Rishi replied as he looked at the man in the eyes. They looked at each other for a few seconds before the man smiled.
"So you are passionate about beast taming; that\'s a good sign. How long do you think it will take you to become a four-star beast cultivator?" asked the man.
"It depends," replied Rishi.
"Depends on what?" asked Mr. Rana.
"Depending on my mood, if I am serious, it would not even take a month," replied Rihsi. Prof. Anya looked at him, biting her lips. \'How could Rishab talk to him so casually? I should discipline him more; he is still young.\' Her worries were justified as the person in front of them was a five-star Beast Cultivator.
The man laughed, saying, "You are pretty confident, aren\'t you? Let\'s play a little game, then.
I don\'t do anything without profit. How about we make a bet? If you win, can you ask a favor from me? If I win, I want a promise that you will let me select a beast egg of my choice from your storage and will pay for the food of that beast," replied Rishi, as he looked at Mr. Rana with a smile.
"Rishab, how can you behave like that to a senior? Apologize right now," said Prof. As her brows flared up, Rishab was inviting trouble. She didn\'t want his arrogance to be the cause of his failure. One should always try to build friendly relationships with others; A little mistake can lead to terrible consequences.
Rishi looked at the man, and Mr. Rana looked at him for a while before he started laughing. "I like it; you are right, it would be no fun without some gains, but aren\'t you asking for a ridiculous price?"
Rishi replied, "I am a 12-year-old who is officially a three-star Beast Cultivator, has already evolved into an Elite Grade Beast, and will soon become a four-star Beast Cultivator. Even a fool could see that I have the potential to become a five-star beast cultivator; Is the worth of a potential five-star beast cultivator so low in your eyes?"
He stood up. "Good then, I would like to ask for a leave; thanks for inviting me," he said, starting to walk under the surprised eyes of Prof. Anya and Mr. Rana.
Mr. Rana looked at his back; he calculated before saying, "Come back; I agree to make a bet with you" Prof. Anya was surprised by this; she didn\'t know what to do here. If she intervened, it would harm her relationships with both of them; Finally, she decided to observe from the side.
Rishi stopped and said, "That was a one-time offer." Mr. Rana\'s eyebrows twitched as he looked at the boy. "I will add an exclusive contract to your previous offer."
A grin appeared on Rishi\'s face, but he didn\'t show it and kept walking. Mr. Rana started sweating. His seniors told him to build good relationships with talented individuals and recruit them to the Alliance. If others learn about this incident, it will leave a dark mark on his career.
He offered some more things and convinced Rishi; Bombs of joy were bursting inside his mind, but he showed an expressionless face to others, acting as if it was not a big deal. Mr. Rana presented a well-composed face, and they both had an intense staredown again.
Rishi asked, "So, which game are we playing?"
Mr. Rana thought for a while before asking Rishi to sit beside him. Prof. Anya also stood next to them. In front of them, a hologram appeared. On it, "Start" was written. Mr. Rana explained, "This is a rapid evolution path tester. In it, we can select from various magic beasts in the database and test if, if we use our methods, they will be able to evolve."
Rishi\'s eyes widened in surprise when he looked at it. "Isn\'t it too OP, then? If it were known publicly, the success rate of evolution would skyrocket."
"Ha ha ha," Mr. Rana laughed, "you are not wrong, but it is just in the prototype phase. It has many limitations as it can only calculate for a few Magic Beasts, and the evolved form should be Elite Grade or lower."
Rishi nodded to Mr. Rana\'s response; it was understandable. "So what do I have to do now?"
"I will give you three hours, and you must successfully evolve a rare-grade beast into elite-grade in three turns. If you succeed, then you win," said Mr. Rana.
"Isn\'t it unfair, Mr. Rana? How can one create an evolution path in three hours?" commented Professor Anya.
"You can check it yourself, Mrs. Anya, in the meantime. It is something created to make the process easier. It provides all the data and tools to assist the Beast Tamer making the process very easy," replied Mr. Rna.
Rishi started looking at the screen in front of him. He pressed the start function, and a digital window appeared before him. He had many options here and selected the \'Magic Beasts\' option.
[Select Grade]
Common
Uncommon
Rare
Elite
He clicked on the "rare" option, and a list of multiple rare-grade beasts appeared before him. He could search for a particular beast if he wanted, or he could filter specific types, elements, etc. The more he used it, the more astonished he became; The other two looked at him but didn\'t disturb him.
Time passed, and soon it was already one hour; Rishi had not even started till now. Prof. Anya looked at him tensely; she saw a smirk on Mr. Rana\'s face.
Rishi checked every function, which took him one more hour. His eyes then flashed with a golden glow. He started clicking on one option after another at a fast pace; He typed down the materials and their quantities. He did some calculations in his head before starting.
The process of evolution can be seen through graphs. Below, a bar can be seen that shows the percentage of success. It started at 10% before slowly reaching 20%, then it started increasing, and after some time it was already 70%. Mr. Rana could not believe his eyes. 70% meant that the chances of evolution were very high, and it was considered successful.
He was disappointed when he looked at the bar, which was still increasing.
75%, 79%, and 85%
It kept increasing until it finally slowed down in the nineties. It was now at 99%, but what happened next made Mr. Rana stand up; The bar finally stopped at 100%.
"How can it be? There is something wrong with it. How can anyone get 100% on their first attempt? Even four-star beast tamers could only get 70%; Some talented ones might get 80%, but 100% is unheard of."
He started checking to see if there was any error. When he couldn\'t confirm, he noted the evolution path and called his manager. He then asked Rishi and Anya to follow him; they were going to test whether the application made a mistake.
