Kill The Sun Chapter 159

Jonathan and Kiara almost couldn’t believe that the people in Dark Dream were earning so much more.

However, after thinking about what they had just heard from Wyntor, they realized that it actually made sense.

It was not that Wyntor was paying his employees very well.

It was that Ardum was paying them horribly since he was barely earning any money.

In terms of pure profit, Dark Dream was probably earning a lot more than Cycle, which meant that they could also pay their employees far better.

“You will be working for me from now on,” Wyntor said, evenly looking at the two of them.

Jonathan and Kiara looked at each other with uncertainty.

All of this was so sudden.

However, they remembered that they didn’t really have a choice.

They had already betrayed Cycle by walking in here.

There was no going back.

“What about our families?” Kiara asked.

“Since you are my employees, the security of your families is my responsibility,” Wyntor said. “As soon as you’ve signed the contract and the release fee has been paid, you can get your families and let them live in here for the time being.”

Earlier this day, the two of them would have thought that something like this was being too paranoid, but after witnessing Stephen’s and Ardum’s true faces, they accepted it.

“Then, thank you, boss,” Jonathan said with a careful smile.

“Nick is the boss,” Wyntor said before looking at Nick with a grin. “At least, that’s what all the Extractors call him.”

“You can refer to me simply as sir,” Wyntor said.

Nick smiled awkwardly.

He had gotten used to Jenny and Trevor calling him boss, but with two new additions, his nickname felt official.

“Of course, sir,” Jonathan said with a polite bow.

Wyntor nodded and looked at Kiara.

Kiara only sighed and nodded. “I’m looking forward to working with all of you.”

“Good,” Wyntor said before he walked to the door. “I will be drafting the contract and dealing with the release fee. Nick, you show them around.”

Nick nodded.

Usually, when Extractors signed a contract, the contract said that they had to keep the specifics of their old workplace a secret, and a release fee had to be paid when they decided to work for another Zephyx Manufacturer.

Funnily enough, the contract these two had signed didn’t have such a clause.

Instead, the contract stated that they were not allowed to quit without the CEO’s consent.

However, that clause wasn’t legally enforceable.

Wyntor would just pay the standard amount of money to purchase the two of them, and if Ardum had an issue with it, he could sue Wyntor.

But both of them knew that he wouldn’t get anywhere with that. For original chapters go to NoveI-Fire.ɴet

Ardum simply wrote the contract like this to make his employees think that they weren’t allowed to join another Manufacturer.

After Wyntor left, Nick looked at the two of them, who looked at Nick nervously.

“Welcome to Dark Dream,” Nick said with an embarrassed smile. “I guess I’m your boss now.”

When the two of them saw the innocent smile on Nick’s face, they were taken aback.

Nick had seemed so dangerous and powerful, but now, he seemed more like an inexperienced and shy boy.

“By the way, my name’s Nick, and I’m 16 years old,” Nick said with a smile.

“You’re 16?!” Kiara asked in shock, which was mirrored by Jonathan.

“Is that strange?” Nick asked with a smile as he scratched the back of his head.

“It’s just… that’s very young to be a Chief Zephyx Extractor,” Kiara explained.

“I guess so,” Nick answered awkwardly.

Kiara and Jonathan were still confused and shocked.

As soon as they had joined Dark Dream, Nick’s entire demeanor had changed.

But after a while, they decided that this was a good thing.

Wyntor’s Aura was already oppressive enough.

“Anyway, what are your abilities?” Nick asked. “I kind of need to know.”

The two of them looked at each other.

Asking an Extractor about their ability was a taboo.

However, it was also normal for the Chief Zephyx Extractor to know the abilities of their employees since they needed to assign them to the Specters.

“I can show you,” Kiara said as she slowly moved her hand to one of her guns.

Naturally, Nick noticed Kiara’s movements, but he didn’t stop her.

Kiara slowly pulled out her gun and pointed it at one of the walls.

BANG!

She fired a bullet, and the bullet hit the wall loudly.

The bullet bounced off the wall after being dented into an unrecognizable form.

Meanwhile, the wall only got a bit discolored.

“That was a normal shot,” Kiara said.

Nick nodded as he watched with interest.

Even though the person in front of him had a gun, Nick wasn’t nervous in any way.

Kiara was barely a meter away from Nick, and if she tried anything, Nick would reach her very quickly.

The next moment, a red glow appeared around Kiara’s gun.

When Nick saw the red glow, he became very interested in the ability.

It seemed like Kiara had an ability that was actually useful for combat.

BANG!

Kiara shot another bullet, which hit the wall as well.

Just like the first bullet, this one couldn’t penetrate the wall, but there was one difference.

A very small crevice was left in the wall.

The crevice was around 15 centimeters long, barely a couple of millimeters wide, and not even a single millimeter deep.

“Interesting,” Nick said.

Kiara nodded. “This is the ability that Extractors receive from one of our- Cycle’s Specters. Most of us have this ability since it is very useful for combat.”

“With this ability, we can empower a weapon or parts of our bodies with a cutting effect, and the best part is that it barely costs any Zephyx to use,” Kiara explained.

“Jonathan also has this ability,” Kiara said as Jonathan nodded.

Nick was very interested in the ability.

If they won the war, they would gain access to the Specter that granted people this ability.

This meant that Dark Dream would finally get a Specter that granted their new employees useful abilities!
