Unexpectedly, hiring an ordinary pub bouncer allowed Song Jian to learn about a battle profession, increasing his confidence in completing the main quest;

“Since a pub bouncer can be a battle profession instructor, could the pub servers and bartender Fiana also be a battle profession?” Song Jian suddenly had this thought.

“Fiana, are you a battle profession instructor?” Song Jian sat at the bar, staring at Fiana as he asked.

“Battle profession?” Fiana’s eyes showed a hint of confusion as if she was lost in memories. After a while, Fiana sighed, glanced at Song Jian and said, “Sorry, the battle profession I know would not suit you.”

“As I thought, Fiana is also a battle profession instructor!” Song Jian’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, “That’s alright, just tell me about your battle profession. 1 just want to learn more about it.”

“Sorry, the battle profession I know would not suit you!” Fiana smiled and repeated her previous words, seemingly not wanting to discuss it any further with Song Jian.

“Well, never mind then.” Song Jian was disappointed. When an NPC keeps repeating the same line, it means the conversation can’t go any further. No matter how intelligent an NPC appears, some game rules still have to be followed;

Song Jian asked the pub servers one by one, but none of them were battle profession instructors;

“It seems that encountering Zuo Ya was already extremely lucky.” Song Jian shrugged his shoulders, glanced at the players in the pub, shook his head, and headed for the pub’s entrance. He didn’t have much time to waste;

“Boss, I actually think that guy suits your profession quite well. He has a hint of the night about him.” A pub bouncer whispered;

“He has already come into contact with the clue to that profession. I hope he continues to explore it. Among the ten unique professions— Immortal, Demon, Holy, Emperor, God, Taoist, Buddha, King, Scholar, Sovereign…hehe, I really hope to see these professions reappear in the world. Compared to my ‘Night Assassin’ profession, these are much more powerful! He is not suitable to be my successor.” Fiana shook her head and whispered.

“What a pity…” The bouncer looked at Song Jian’s back, muttered, and pursed his lips;

Song Jian left the pub and returned to his Manor Castle;

The Bloodthirsty Shade Poison Tree’s branches and leaves were lush, but the entire tree was devoid of any green color. The branches and leaves were withered yellow and dark red, looking sickly. The veins of the branches and leaves had dark red lines, just like blood vessels. A faint, rotten smell filled the air around the tree;

Most of the thirty blood crows perched on the poison tree, while a few flew to the castle’s roof and surrounding walls. Pairs of blood-red eyes indifferently monitored the movements around the manor;

The withered tree spirit, shrouded in poisonous mist, was paired with the bloodthirsty crows, creating an atmosphere one would not believe was not a haunted house style;

Glancing at the sleeping Bloodthirsty Shade Poison Tree, Song Jian shrugged and thought to himself, “Haunted house style it is then. After a while, it actually has a sickly beauty to it.”

Arriving at the castle, Song Jian saw that the butler George had changed into a new suit and stood respectfully at the entrance, bowing to Song Jian, “Welcome home, sir.”

Behind George, there were two NPCs with somewhat rigid expressions, who also bowed and said, “Welcome home, sir.”

“George, who are these two?” Song Jian raised an eyebrow and asked;

“Sir, these are two castle servants I have hired. This one is named John, a gardener, and also a part-time farmer.” George pointed to an older man behind him and said, “Sir, there are six unused Spirit Fields in the manor now, which is a huge waste. From now on, these six fields will be handled by John.”

Song Jian nodded his head. The six Spirit Fields could grow many plants, but Song Jian had no time to tend them. Planting is a tedious task that requires constant attention to water, weed, get rid of insects, and fertilize for a good harvest, requiring immense effort;

Song Jian was quite satisfied with the gardener the butler had recruited and gave him a nod and smile;

“And who is this?” Song Jian’s gaze fell on another person;

This NPC looked very young, probably in his twenties, wearing a plain linen suit. Seeing Song Jian looking at him, he immediately felt a sense of nervousness;

“M-master, my name is Tammy, I am a carpenter.” The young NPC nervously said to Song Jian;

“Carpenter?” Song Jian raised his eyebrow and looked at the butler George;

It seems that Butler George had selected employees based on the situation of his Manor Castle;

“Master, Tammy is an intermediate carpenter who excels in making furniture. He can make our castle look less empty.” George, seemingly sensing Song Jian’s satisfaction, continued with a smile, “Moreover, he can maintain all the defensive settings of the manor, including the Arrow Towers at the four corners of the wall, the three Catapults, and the traps outside the wall. The two of them can also go out and gather materials on their own when they have nothing to do, saving Master a lot of energy and time.”

“Able to gather materials by themselves?” Song Jian was taken aback, a surprised expression appearing on his face: “This is just like a Follower!”

“Master, these two are ordinary people, not combat professions, and cannot fight and hunt monsters with the Master.” Butler George reminded;

“Hehe, being able to gather materials is already good enough. However, don’t go out recently, there are too many monsters outside. If you need any materials, just ask me!” Song Jian nodded and said;

“Master, should I hire these two then?” George asked;

“You can, George. 1 am very satisfied with your work. I will leave the matters of the manor to you in the future.” Song Jian said with a smile;

“It is my duty, Master.” George bowed to Song Jian, his tone somewhat excited;

System: You hired Gardener John at a cost of 10 Doomsday Coins, deducted;

System: You hired Carpenter Tammy at a cost of 10 Doomsday Coins, deducted;

The hiring fees for the two were automatically deducted, and their salaries will be settled at the end of the month. George began to command the two to get busy, and Song Jian flashed to the third floor of the castle, taking out a book with a dark aura from his package;

This was a book that Song Jian had found in Count Qian Dahai’s old house. The cover of the book was engraved with the image of a horned demon, and it read “Demon Summoning”;

As Song Jian took out the book, the seductive, elusive voice rang in his ears again;

Since Song Jian was prepared this time, he was not disturbed by the voice and directly opened the book;

As soon as the book was opened, a golden light burst out from it;

System: You opened the “Book of Demons” and began to study…

System: Every 10 seconds of study, your comprehension of “Demon Summoning” increases by 5%;

System: While studying the Book of Demons, you will be subjected to a mental temptation test every 10 seconds. If you pass the test, you can continue studying; if you fail, you cannot continue studying;
