Chapter 882 Lorenzo's Intentions

Chapter 882 Lorenzo's Intentions

??Time- 10:32

??Location- Sky Blossom City, Airstrip

??"How can you say such things, Wyatt? I gave you those materials on array formation to fulfill my duty as your mentor other than that I had no other ulterior motives behind my actions. How could you doubt my intentions?" said Lorenzo and he sounded as if my words really hurt his feelings. 

??Lorenzo was the man who suggest to Anna that I should be placed in a secured facility until the threat to my life was taken care of when he knew that I was the creator of the silver milk powder. If not for my past with Lorenzo I would have developed a pang of guilt and fallen for his act. 

??"Uh-huh, I know crocodile tears when I see one," I wanted to clap to Lorenzo's dramatic words but stopped thinking that would be a bit much on my part and then added, "Stop the act, it is a bit too dramatic even for you, so get to the point. Don't force me, Oldman, I really don't want to call Anna over this." 

??"Boy, you are a lot more stubborn and cautious than I thought. But let me make it clear to you, I need nothing from you, except that you participate in the array mastery certification test at the central array mastery association as my disciple and win on your first try. That is all I ask you in exchange for my mentorship to you." Lorenzo stopped with his act and finally told me what he wanted or at least half of it. 

??"Why the central array master association? Why not the southern array master association? What's the difference?" The only way I will know what Lorenzo is hiding from me was by knowing more about the event. 

??"Because what is the point of winning in Homefield? I am the highest authority in the southern array master association, if you win, as my disciple you winning is given and there is nothing fun about that but If you win at the central array master association, we will be sticking one up the ass of the pretentious pricks of the central," Lorenzo's reason seemed reasonable but I had a feeling that wasn't all of it. 

??"Why do you keep saying winning as if array master certification is competition instead of a licensing test?" I asked after analyzing Lorenzo's reason word by word.

??"About that, all the array master certifications are assessed with a marks system, I not only want you to complete the array master certification test but also score the highest marks in the history of the central array master association," Lorenzo finally drop the bomb of truth. 

??"I see, so what do I get for scoring the highest marks in the history of the central array master association? Or shall I put it this way, what do you stand to gain from this?" faced with Lorenzo's high expectations for me, I stayed calm and asked the crux of the matter.

??"Haven't I already made it clear that I am doing this to gain the satisfaction of sticking one up the asses of the pretentious pricks of the central region," Lorenzo stuck to his story from before. 

??"Uh-huh, and what else?" I asked Lorenzo making it clear that I did not trust his word a bit. 

??"And what else could be there? Do you expect something else? How can you be so materialistic at such young age?" Lorenzo was an old fox faced with so many questions, but he kept his calm and stuck to his story. 

??"Shut it, Lorenzo, your whole plan depends on me scoring the highest marks in the history of the central array master association, you better cough up what you are planning. Otherwise, our cooperation with met its unfortunate end today," while I said this I used my superbrain card to scour the entire grimoire network to find all information related to the central array master association and its array master certification but I hit a brick wall, because there was very little information on the central array master association itself let alone its array master certification. The only reason this could be was that the central region's array masters were a secretive bunch, therefore I had no choice but to ask Lorenzo. There wasn't even enough information to bluff with Lorenzo or I would have bluffed Lorenzo into telling me the whole truth. 

??"Cooperation, kid, aren't you funny? Do you think getting the highest score in the history of the central array master association's array master certification test was easy? Many have tried and failed, and with your attitude, I doubt if you are even able to get the highest score among the candidates applying for array master certification with you," Lorenzo laughed at my words and started to undermine my role in his pans so that he could have his way. This was the classic method baby boomers used back on earth to keep hold of whatever power they had left. This fuckers, don't die and become the obstacles in the growth of what they have built so far and expect us to be indebted to them for doing their job. If it were up to me I would send all these adult diaper-wearing babies to an old home and add some fresh blood to rejuvenate society. 

??"Good then, we have nothing to speak off, let's say our goodbyes here," Saying that I once again walked around Lorenzo and head towards the carrier. Only to have my path blocked b Lorenzo once again. 

??"Where do you think you are going? I am not done talking, don't you know it is rue to walk away when someone is talking to you. I am telling kids these days need a separate subject on manners and commonsense added to their syllabus- hey, don't you walk away from me again, I said stop damn it," hearing Lorenzo once again belittle me, I continued to walk past him only to have my path blocked by furious Lorenzo, again.
