Villain's Evolution: Investing in My Minions Yields Crazy Returns!

Chapter 112: [Power Stone Bonus Chapter] The Underestimated Genius, Victor’s New Investment! [2]

The moment Mia accepted the Profession Awakening Guidance Stone, a familiar system notification sounded in Victor’s mind.

[Ding!]

[You have made an investment in Mia Hart.]

[Investment Content: Basic Profession Awakening Guidance Stone worth 12,000 academy contribution points.]

[Target detected to currently be at a low point in her life.]

[Target possesses S Rank potential.]

[Target possesses the hidden talent Mana Pattern Resonance S.]

[Target’s profession awakening is currently obstructed.]

[Investment conditions satisfied!]

[Calculating investment multiplier...]

[Congratulations, Host! You have triggered an 86x Return!]

[You have obtained investment rewards equivalent to 1,032,000 academy contribution points.]

[Please select the form of your return.]

[Option 1: Epic Item: Myriad Forms Profession Awakening Core.]

[Option 2: Permanent Attribute Reward: Spirit +20.]

[Option 3: Epic Skill: Mana Pattern Insight.]

A trace of anticipation flashed through Victor’s eyes.

Looking at the three options before him, Victor quickly made his choice.

”Option One.”

The next moment, a new system notification finally appeared.

[Congratulations, Host! You Have Obtained an Investment Return Reward!]

[Epic Special Item: Myriad Forms Profession Awakening Core ×1!]

[Myriad Forms Profession Awakening Core]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: Assists individuals who have not yet completed their profession awakening in activating their latent profession seeds. Based on the user’s talent characteristics, it guides their awakening toward the profession most suitable for them.]

[Special Effect: If the user possesses a hidden talent, the compatibility between their profession and hidden talent can be increased.]

[Restriction: Each individual can only use this item once.]

Looking at the reward description before him, Victor’s eyes glistened.

Even in the Royal Academy’s advanced resource treasury, something like this would probably be an extremely rare treasure.

Also, it was practically perfect for Mia’s situation.

If he invested this core in Mia again...

However, the moment this thought appeared in Victor’s mind, he quickly suppressed it.

There was no rush. Investment returns weren’t simply about piling every available resource onto a single person.

He still needed to consider the value of those resources and how to maximize the benefits of every investment.

Besides, Mia had only just received the Profession Awakening Guidance Stone.

He should at least see how much she could grow first.

With this thought, Victor turned his attention back to the girl before him.

”Mia.”

”Senior?”

”For the next few days, use this Guidance Stone according to the standard method. Don’t rush to force your profession awakening.” Victor spoke seriously. ”If anything unusual happens, let me know immediately.”

Mia nodded vigorously.

”I understand!”

She lowered her head and looked at the crystal in her palm, her eyes shining with unconcealed excitement.

To Victor, this was merely an ordinary investment. But to her, it might be an opportunity to change her future destiny.

”Thank you, Senior Victor.” Mia raised her head and spoke solemnly. ”I definitely won’t disappoint you.”

Victor smiled. ”I hope so.”

Just then, Evelyn, who had been standing silently beside them, suddenly spoke.

”Young Master.”

”What is it?”

”You’ve already spent quite a lot of time today.”

Evelyn glanced at the sky.

”Besides, the healer explicitly instructed you to avoid strenuous activity for the next three days.”

Victor raised an eyebrow. ”I’ve only been standing here talking. Does that count as strenuous activity?”

”For someone who was nearly beaten to death by a magical beast, it does.”

”...”

Victor shook his head helplessly.

”Alright, alright. We’ll head back.”

With that, he turned toward Mia again.

”That’s all for today. If you’ve made up your mind about joining my team, you can ask Evelyn to contact me.”

”Understood, Senior!” Mia hurriedly nodded.

After watching Victor and Evelyn leave, the girl lowered her head and stared at the Profession Awakening Guidance Stone in her hands, remaining motionless for a long time.

Only after quite some time had passed did she slowly tighten her grip around the crystal.

”Senior Victor...” She softly murmured his name.

Then, a determined light gradually appeared in her eyes.

This time, she didn’t want to let another opportunity slip through her fingers.

...

Meanwhile.

After leaving the training ground, Victor was clearly in an excellent mood.
