Genius Manager: I Can Make All Girls Talented!

Chapter 96: Chapter 96 - I'm Not Unique?

As Fleur locked arms with Darius, he made sure to glare at her, wondering if something different would happen this time around.

However, nothing changed, the voice in his mind didn't tell him anything at all.

Darius had already heard the voice telling him to be careful around Fleur for an unknown reason. Tonight, he would figure out that reason, Darius would also figure out why they were similar.

As far as he could tell, it wasn't physical. She was a girl, Darius was a man, there was no doubt about that part.

Since the similarities aren't physical, then it meant they couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

'Maybe she experienced something weird like me…' Darius thought.

He thought that potentially Fleur could have a system helping her just like he has. The chances weren't high, but they were definitely there.

'Maybe I'm not the only one who experienced those strange events.'

The more he thought about it, the more Darius realized that there was a chance for other people on Earth to be helped by a system just like he was.

He couldn't be the only one with such a thing. After all, the voice in his mind wasn't programmed. It was a real person…it was the voice of an actual being. There was a chance for it to have helped other humans around the world. In fact, those chances were quite high.

"Is everything okay?" Anna suddenly asked as she noticed that Darius was acting completely different compared to yesterday. She had noticed Darius fidgeting around, looking around, especially at his sister, staring her down like she was an animal.

Darius came out of his stupor when he heard Anna's voice, blinking his eyes a few times.

"Y-Yeah, everything is good. Sorry, just got lost in my own thoughts."

"Right, you just arrived yesterday in Paris. I didn't even get to ask you, but what are you doing in Paris for more than a month?"

"Ah, I'm playing in a movie, and it's taking place in Paris, that's all."

Anna nodded, clearly impressed. It was the same for Fleur, who hadn't expected Darius to play in a movie since he was trying to recruit her from his agency. That's why some doubts formed in the back of her mind.

"Uh…so, you're an actor and an agent? How does that work?"

After all, as much as Fleur had liked Darius's first impression, she was still thinking of her career first, which made a lot of sense.

"Meh, it's complicated. This acting gig is only a one-time thing; I won't do it again in the future. I kinda had no choice but to take part in it."

Anna laughed. "You're the first person in the world that I heard complaining about getting a role in a movie. I wouldn't even be surprised if you said that you were one of the main leads.

Darius frowned. "How'd you know?"

Anna laughed even harder.

However, Fleur just frowned as she also started eying Darius weirdly.

"Did you ever act in the past? How did you land a main role without any experience?"

"Luck, I guess. The movie director really liked me for some reason."

"Mhm, are you talented in something else?"

"Finding talents. Everyone in my agency is bound to become a star in the future. I always make sure of that," Darius replied with a lot of confidence.

After all, he had the right to be confident, considering that he had access to people's stats before even recruiting them. Darius was cheating to ensure that he was only recruiting talented people.

"How are you so sure of that?" Fleur asked with a frown.

"Secret," Darius replied with a smile.

That was the best answer to this question. He didn't need to explain or come up with a lie. After all, no one needed to reveal all of their secrets to complete strangers. That simply made no sense whatsoever.

Fleur just shrugged, not really bothered by the lack of a response from Darius.

This time, it was Darius's turn to attack as he wanted to find answers. And what better way to get answers than to ask the source?

"Actually, I was wondering about something," Darius said, starting things off slowly. "Were you always this good at soccer, or football, whatever you call it?"

Fleur stopped walking for less than a millisecond when she heard that question, unsure why that was becoming a subject.

"Why do you want to know about that?"

Darius smiled. He realized that he was on the right track since she was being all defensive all of a sudden. There was no reason for her not to say yes or no. That's why Darius continued putting pressure on her, albeit subtly.

"Uh…no reason, I was just wondering. Is that a big deal?"

Fleur suddenly realized that her reply hadn't been normal at all considering the question, but before she could even answer, her twin sister, Anna, had something to say.

"Fleur just doesn't like to talk about it, but she suddenly got a lot better around two years ago. It was completely out of nowhere, but she was suddenly extremely good at everything that was related to soccer."

Fleur eyed Anna with a cold glare. "Anna?! Why would you say that to him?"

However, Anna just got even more confused when she realized that her sister was becoming mad.

"It's nothing to be embarrassed about. I don't even know why you want to keep that information hidden."

Fleur just gritted her teeth as Darius started to get a better understanding of the situation in his head.

"How bad was she before?" Darius asked, wanting to confirm if he was right about his current theory.

"Well, she wasn't terrible, but she didn't have the level to go pro. However, everything changed two years ago as she became maybe two or three times better in a few weeks."

'So, two years ago, something happened. She probably got the same type of help as me. She might be from the future also…' Darius thought with a frown, unsure.

Either she had simply received help from a system, or she had gotten help from a system and came back from the future just like Darius.

However, Fleur wouldn't tell him, especially since the two of them barely knew one another.
