Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Chapter 165: Chapter 165: What Does This Mean?



Charles looked at Snowy Gao with some curiosity. It seemed he didn't recognize this person.

The crowd gathered here was growing larger. As the hosts of the banquet, the Robinson family was naturally worried that something might happen, so they quickly sent the butler over.

"Young Master Zane, Mr. Charles, please calm down. Today is the Robinson family's banquet, and I ask you both to behave." The butler's expression was somewhat displeased.

"You misunderstood. I'm quite calm, it's this Genosha Taylor family member, Benson's son, who is not so calm." Charles replied, without mentioning Zane's name at all.

The butler clearly caught the implied meaning in Charles's words. He was already well aware of what had transpired between Zane and Charles. Without hesitation, the Robinson family's butler directly addressed Charles:

"Mr. Charles, regardless of your grievances with Zane, I hope you can give the Robinson family some face today and avoid causing any trouble."

After saying this, the butler fell silent, as if the entire situation was initiated by Charles.

Charles frowned and spoke up, "Excuse me, do you know the background of this situation? What do you mean by me causing trouble?"

The butler shook his head and replied, "Mr. Charles, I'm aware of how things unfolded. I ask that you remain calm and enjoy tonight's banquet."

Zane wasn't foolish either, he was feeling very pleased. The Taylor family was far stronger than the Robinson family, which is why the Robinson family's butler was placing the blame on Charles.

After all, Charles was just a commoner, without connections or background.

Meanwhile, Zane, who had instigated the matter, faced no consequences. He stood with his arms crossed, looking at Charles with a gaze full of provocation!

Snowy Gao couldn't take it anymore and directly approached the Robinson family's butler, raising her voice, "What do you mean, Robinson family? Zane started this trouble, and Charles hasn't done anything!"

The Robinson family's butler was unaware of Snowy Gao's special identity, but seeing her dressed elegantly and exuding an extraordinary presence, he patiently explained, "Ma'am, what's important now is that the banquet proceeds smoothly. A master of alchemy is attending, and there can't be any mistakes."

Upon hearing the butler's words, the crowd was instantly astonished and began to murmur:

"What the heck, a master of alchemy! Do we have a master of alchemy in Genosha?"

"The president of the Alchemy Guild is only a master of alchemy, this master of alchemy is even more distinguished!"

"Of course, a master of alchemy would be welcomed in any country. Who wouldn't want to be on good terms with a master of alchemy?"

"Look, it seems that royal people are here, the Grand Princess and the Second Princess have also arrived!"

The others hadn't fully processed the news about the master of alchemy when they heard that royal members were present, and they turned to look.

In another direction, a group of people was approaching. Charles recognized only a couple of them: the Second Princess Camilla, the general's son Zachary, and at the back, Grace.

Charles took a deep breath, and images of signing the human contract flashed through his mind.

Catherine, who was beside him, noticed Charles's state. Following his gaze, she spotted Grace.

"Is that Grace?" Catherine asked Celestine in a low voice.

Celestine nodded but didn't say anything. Because of Charles, she didn't harbor any good feelings toward Grace.

"Butler Zhou, what's going on? Why are there so many people gathered here?" The speaker was Shane Lin, the younger brother of the head of the Robinson family. He had gone to greet the royal family and was taken aback by the scene before him as soon as he entered.

Butler Zhou quickly ran to Shane Lin's side and began to explain quietly.

After understanding the situation, Shane Lin didn't mind much, he simply smiled and said, "It's understandable for young people to be competitive, but today's occasion isn't suitable for that. Let's disperse, the banquet is about to begin."

After Shane Lin said this, he thought he could let the matter pass, but Zane seemed displeased and sarcastically addressed Charles, "Charles, please calm down. In a situation like this, it's better to behave and not cause trouble."

Charles looked up at Butler Zhou and Shane Lin, hoping they could clarify the situation. It was clearly Zane who instigated things, how did it turn into him causing trouble?

Shane Lin spoke again, "Alright, everyone, settle down and disperse."

Grace had naturally seen Charles. She had heard news about him while in Calivia, and not just once. However, Charles was still only a Level 3 Beast Master, while she had already reached Level 4.

Although Charles could defeat a Level 4 Beast Master, she was different, she was a direct disciple of the Vice President of Aredale Academy, not just an ordinary Level 4 Beast Master!

"Charles, this is not a place for commoners to stir up trouble." Grace said calmly to Charles.

Before Charles could react, Catherine and Celestine couldn't hold back anymore. The two of them moved forward, wanting to confront Grace.

Charles reached out his hand to stop the two of them,

allowing the two women to rush ahead while he stayed back. That simply wouldn't do.

"Those who witnessed the events should know that Zane was the one who provoked first, it's not me who caused trouble." Charles proclaimed loudly. The onlookers had all witnessed what happened, but no one spoke up.

"I saw it, Zane did provoke first." Snowy Gao was the first to voice her agreement.

After that, no one else spoke, the remaining people were afraid of the Taylor family and worried about Zane holding a grudge and retaliating, so they kept silent.

Shane Lin waved his hand irritably. He didn't care who started the dispute, he just wanted the crowd to disperse quickly because the master-level alchemist would be arriving soon.

"Alright, alright, this doesn't matter anymore. The banquet is about to start, everyone needs to leave." Shane Lin said helplessly.

"Charles, don't delay things here. If you make that master-level alchemist angry, you won't be able to handle the consequences." Zane said, feeling quite pleased with himself and gloating at Charles.

Butler Zhou added, "Alright, Mr. Charles, just take a step back, the banquet is what's important."

Shane Lin frowned at Charles. He had thought Charles was a smart person who wouldn't insist further, but it turned out he couldn't see his own place.

No matter how good his talent in alchemy and forging was, could it really be more important than a master-level alchemist?

"Enough, stop being unreasonable." Shane Lin said impatiently, wanting to resolve the matter quickly.

Charles took a deep breath. He knew that people from these big families were often self-righteous and extremely proud.

It was clearly Zane who came to provoke him, yet it had turned into him causing trouble?

It was clearly Butler Zhou who made a mistake, yet it had become him who wouldn't let it go?

From the beginning, Charles had done nothing but respond to Zane's provocation, was that really a fault?

The banquet was important, and Charles understood that. Master-level alchemists were indeed rare, but Charles had seen them before. He had learned about alchemy from Colton, a master-level alchemist.

The people of the Robinson family had no awareness of their mistakes. They always thought to make Charles back down. Perhaps they knew that Zane had instigated the situation but chose to blame everything on Charles.

"Is it because I'm a commoner that this situation has turned into me causing trouble?" Charles asked.

Shane Lin didn't answer directly, instead, he said, "Charles, my patience is limited. If you continue like this, I'll have to ask you to leave."

"I won't take the blame for something I didn't do. Right is right, and wrong is wrong." Charles replied, unfazed. He didn't care about the big families at all.

"Even if Zane provoked you first, Charles, you could have chosen to ignore it. Knowing that today is an important banquet for the Robinson family, why not step back?" Shane Lin said with a furrowed brow.

Upon hearing this, Charles finally understood just how arrogant the people from these big families could be.

Zane was from the top family, the Taylor family, in Genosha, so his provocations and troublemaking were perfectly acceptable.

But Charles was just a commoner with talent in alchemy and forging, so responding to provocation was a problem!

What kind of logic was that?

Charles struggled to suppress his anger, trying to remain calm. He said slowly, "What you said is wrong. The responsibility is not mine. Even if it's the Robinson family's banquet today, wrong is wrong!"

Zane was even more pleased. He hadn't expected Charles to be so stubborn! If Charles admitted his mistake and stopped insisting, Zane wouldn't know how to teach him a lesson.

"A commoner is just a commoner, completely unaware of the gravity of the situation. The Robinson family's banquet is far more important than your notions of right and wrong!" Zane raised an eyebrow and smiled at Charles.

"Someone, throw him out!" Shane Lin didn't waste any more words and directly issued orders to the people of the Robinson family!

He had had enough. If this continued, when that master-level alchemist came out and saw such a scene, it would be terrible.

"Wait, who are you throwing out?" A voice came from the Robinson family's room.

Everyone present looked up to see a middle-aged man carefully following behind an elderly man with white hair.

The middle-aged man was none other than the head of the Robinson family, Lance Lin!

The person who could walk behind Lance Lin must be the protagonist of today's banquet, that master-level alchemist.

As Lance Lin and the master-level alchemist walked over, people began to whisper:

"Is this the master-level alchemist? He looks just like an ordinary old man."

"Does anyone know who this is?"

"I don't know. He must be a master-level alchemist from somewhere else."

"I heard he's actually from Genosha, he just recently reached master-level alchemist status."

"That sounds fake. The only master-level alchemist in Calivia is Owen, the president of the alchemist guild, and he's not President Owen!"

...

While others were speculating about who this master-level alchemist was, Charles was stunned,

because he was very familiar with this person, it was Colton, who had taught him about alchemy!
