The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 690

After fifteen minutes of chatting with the Elites, the job fair was officially beginning. The booths were set up in the park outside the auditorium by employers who were looking for workers and apprentices, with the first hour dedicated to the new graduates and then the rest of the weekend for the general population to job hunt.

It wasn’t just companies in the Capital, but those in the surrounding regions as well, and many of the positions would be filled by the university educated and lower ranking Elites.

The Librarian nudged Karl with her shoulder. "Are you going to go look for a full-time job? You know, something to build up your public image and reputation with the people? If you wait for Overlord Rank, you’ll be too busy for such leisurely pursuits."

Karl shook his head. "I already have a plan in mind. I just didn’t expect things to change so quickly. But that reminds me, I need to talk to a certain banker to speed up the plans."

Librarian Kelithuza nodded, then turned to join some of the University Researchers who were pitching projects looking for workers.

Dana poked Karl in the ribs. "You have a project planned?"

Karl laughed. "Sort of. Originally, I was going to sponsor a large office tower or something with my name on it. But I have a better idea now that we know how to awaken Beast Rangers.

I think that I should start a compound for raising potentially beneficial beasts. Once we have a spot for the compound, I will have to figure out how to actually get residents, but it shouldn’t be too hard with the proper application of bribes."

Dana laughed and Tessa gave Karl a curious look. "Are you planning to take in Orphaned beasts, or a wandering Cerro pack or something?"

"Both, I think. That’s a great plan. I need to work on my Runecrafting, but it should be possible to grow crops to keep them fed, the way that the beast spaces do. Then, we can take a commission when Rangers who are advancing come looking for a new partner."

There were also a number of other advancement options available that weren’t Beast Ranger, but would allow the Rangers to pick a magical beast.

"And what if they don’t come flocking to your farm to find new friends?" Tessa asked.

"Then we advertise it as a petting zoo for Green Dragon Clerics. We will be rich."

Tessa and Ophelia burst into laughter, while Dana sighed and leaned against Karl’s side.

He wrapped his arm over her shoulder and smiled at the mage. "See, it’s a brilliant plan. Plus, if we bring in Cerro, we know that they’re not going to object to people coming to give them attention and head pats every day."

That sounded good to Thor. In fact, he wondered why nobody had thought of that before. No need to travel to find the good food, and nature cleric head pats? Pure luxury.

Rae thought about reminding him that it came with a loss of freedom, and that they would be stuck within a compound, but quickly realized that the Lightning Cerro wouldn’t see that as necessarily a bad thing.

They would just become territorial and protect the compound where the food was. The fact that there was a wall around it was a bonus in their minds.

Karl kept Dana under his arm as he left the auditorium, leading the group. If he was lucky, he would be able to find someone from the Roth Savings and Loan group.
