Genius Manager: I Can Make All Girls Talented!

Chapter 97: Chapter 97 - I'll Take Care of It

"Is this the place?" Anna asked, trying her best to calm the atmosphere.

Ever since she had started talking about Fleur's career and sudden talent. The atmosphere had completely flipped. Fleur wasn't staying near Darius anymore for some reason, seemingly scared of him.

Darius had tried asking the voice in his mind what was currently happening to her, but it never once replied to him. It seemed he would have to figure out what was happening to her on his own, he would need to find out what she was hiding.

Darius had clear idea that her situation was similar to his. However, it was still vague, he had understood a part of the voice warnings about her. But it still wasn't enough. Since it had been two years, there was a good chance for Fleur to know a lot more about all of this than Darius, which meant that obtaining information out of her could potentially be great.

Suddenly, a distinct noise resounded in the back of Darius's mind.

[New Quest - Figure out who's helping Fleur]

[Reward: ???]

This time, when Darius read the rewards, there was no information about what he would receive from completing the quest. However, he couldn't care less. He had already planned on figuring out what was wrong with Fleur.

Nevertheless, the voice in his mind had just confirmed that he was right for the time being. Someone was also helping her at the moment, and the craziest thing about all of this was that she might not be the only one being helped by a system.

'Maybe some of the elites of this world also have access to this type of thing…they just kept it hidden just like the two of us are doing.'

After all, there was no reason to reveal having access to such powers. It would only make things more complicated for the person having them. That was also one of the main reasons why Darius was careful about who he told about his powers.

He had already told Yuna that he came from the future.

However, it would take a long time for him to reveal that he had another power that might even be stronger than the knowledge of the future.

Hearing the voice in his mind, Darius came out of his stupor and turned toward Anna, who was eying him weirdly, just like Fleur was currently doing.

"R-Right, yes, this is the place."

Darius had managed to get a reservation in a decent restaurant. However, it wasn't anything fancy, as he didn't have enough time to set it up.

Nevertheless, Darius once more felt deadly glares focused on his back, which made him turn around. However, once again, there was nothing behind him.

There were only a few bushes, but that was it.

When he focused on a bush in particular, he thought that he saw pink hair, but he blinked, and it was gone.

'Mhm, I probably hallucinated. There's no reason for Avery to be here.'

Darius, Anna, and Fleur walked right into the restaurant, and Darius gave his name to the person waiting by the door.

They were clearly ready for them as they guided them right away to a table with a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower. The restaurant wasn't the most luxurious in the world, but it was definitely decent. The view was magical as Anna opened her mouth wide.

She didn't know what to say as this was the first time she had seen something as beautiful as this.

Anna and Fleur had lived their entire life in Paris, but they had never spent time truly observing their surroundings, which was why something as common as a view of the Eiffel Tower was magnificent for Anna.

However, when Darius looked toward Fleur, he noticed that she wasn't focused on the view whatsoever as her eyes were fixed on him.

They sat down, and Fleur immediately had another question for Darius.

"So, why should you be my agent?"

Darius shrugged. "Well, because I believe I could take care of you very well."

"That's it? Can't everyone do that? What's special about you? What makes you different from the rest of the managers who approached me?"

Darius wasn't too sure what to reply to that, as he could feel that Fleur was also trying to get more information from him. However, Darius wasn't planning on revealing any details about his power.

Before answering, Darius once more activated [Magical Scent], which made both Anna and Fleur turn red in an instant. Both of them were instantly affected by Darius's scent as they eyed him strangely.

'Right, my skills still work on her.'

"What makes me different?" Darius repeated as he rubbed his chin. "I guess I can see things others can't."

Fleur frowned right away. "What do you mean? What can you see?"

"Potential. I told you, everyone who I'm interested in is bound to become a star in their field later."

Fleur nodded right away, and Darius used that hesitation to ask a question of his own. He didn't waste the slightest second, directly staring at Fleur dead in the eyes.

"What about you? What happened two years ago? How did you become so much better than before?"

Darius didn't care if she refused to answer. If he had to, he would use his skills on her later. When that happened, she wouldn't be able to refuse him. At least, Darius hoped so. That's how things had gone in the past.

"I don't know. I just got better, that's all. Stop asking questions about that."

"Why can't I ask questions about that? If I become your manager, I need to know everything about you."

Fleur shook her head. "I knew this was a waste of time. Let's go, Anna."

Fleur stood up from the table and headed for the door without looking back once.

Darius looked over toward Anna and realized that she had no idea what was happening.

"Just wait here. I'll go get her," Anna suddenly said as she tried standing up.

However, before she managed to do so, Darius held her down as he shook his head.

"I'll take care of it."
