Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons - Chapter 615: 615 - Noble Tamer - Fifth Year - 2
Chapter 615: Chapter 615 – Noble Tamer – Fifth Year – 2
The new and old employees arrived at different times of day, a group of almost thirty people Ren recognized immediately.
Some had already been working at the previous house, and all were former neighbors from his old home, people who had shared the misery of frontier life and now had the opportunity to work in infinitely better conditions.
Among them, Ren finally saw faces he had been waiting for.
“Ren!” Li practically jumped on him, without a trace of the formality the butler clearly expected. “Brother, look at you! When did you get so tall?”
Tao followed closely, grinning widely. “And so fancy. Is that tunic made from real black moth scales? By all the dragons…”
But it was the third who made Ren pause to observe.
Anuar… His family also ended up under Ren’s wing eventually. They had always had a bit more financial freedom when Ren was small, with several bronzes in the family instead of just irons… “The snobs of the neighborhood”.
Anuar had gotten ‘lucky’ with his gray egg contract and instead of a plant or spore had obtained a Frog.
With help from Ren’s cultivation methods, both the new Plants and Frogs were now almost all Silver rank or on their way to being so.
The plants from the grey eggs were undoubtedly the beast for excellence for the vast majority of the population, the beasts of the masses.
Yet their meaning had become something completely different thanks to the thousand-day method and the cultivation method for new generations.
Practically everyone could aspire to Silver rank now.
Those who didn’t were lower rank just due to lack of immediate economic support… some by being late or not filling out government forms well, others by simple “wait and see” attitudes.
But it was very rare to find someone distracted who hadn’t received public support by not knowing about it. Mostly, for the many who had been slow to try the process, it was more about waiting to see that it wasn’t some strange government trap, but they were now an extreme minority.
Anuar had been the “show-off” friend of the 4 in their early childhood, and although he used to share, he was the friend who had always been slightly more distant because his family had a bit more money.
That Anuar… knelt before Ren with reverence that bordered on religious.
“Lord Patinder,” he murmured with a voice full of emotion, “thank you for this opportunity. My family… my Silver-rank Frog… everything we are now is thanks to you.”
“Get up,” Ren said immediately, uncomfortable with the obvious worship. “We’re friends. You don’t have to…”
“You’re the messiah,” Anuar interrupted, his eyes shining with fervor. “You’ve helped so many. My Frog is at Silver 2 now. Silver 2! Three years ago, my family would have barely been able to pay for basic crystals for my current cultivation!”
Li and Tao exchanged amused glances as they pulled Anuar back to his feet.
“Our friend has gotten a bit intense about the subject,” Li explained. “But he’s right about one thing. Our Plants are Silver only thanks to you.”
“Mine is about to reach Silver 3,” Tao added with obvious pride. “Dad says he’s never seen a beast evolve so fast.”
The butler cleared his throat discreetly, clearly disapproving of the level of informality, but Ren ignored him.
“And your families?” Ren asked. “How are they?”
“Mom saw you this morning, she’s perfectly fine and will stay in the cleaning group,” Li responded, pointing to where his mother conversed animatedly with other employees. “She’s excited to work here even though cleaning will take much longer. She says the new salary is as big as the new mansion…”
“My parents will be on the gardening team,” Tao said. “Dad won’t stop talking about the interesting things you’re going to cultivate here. He has lots of ideas.”
Anuar finally straightened completely. “My family… We were assigned administrative duties. If we pass the butler’s training,” he added quickly, glancing nervously toward the older man who watched them with an inscrutable expression.
“You’ll pass,” Ren said with confidence. “Your family was always good with numbers and organization.”
The three friends looked at him, and Ren immediately noticed the differences between them and the noble students he saw at the academy. Li talked with his hands, gesticulating exaggeratedly. Tao scratched wherever it itched without worrying about etiquette. Anuar, despite his religious fervor toward Ren, maintained a relaxed posture that no noble would adopt in the presence of a superior.
They were casual, liberal, uneducated in the subtleties of noble etiquette. And honestly, Ren found that refreshing now.
The small things that had been his normal felt like a great luxury at this moment.
“So,” Li said with a mischievous smile, “tell us more about your academy. Are there pretty girls?”
Ren felt his cheeks heat up. “Lately you guys don’t get tired of asking the same thing every semester vacation… That’s not relevant to…”
“Of course there are!” Tao laughed. “Look how red he got.”
“I’ve heard that most noble girls are incredibly beautiful when they grow up thanks to Vitality increases,” Anuar added, his tone more casual now that his worship moment had passed. “Is it true?”
As if summoned by the conversation, Mako and Shizu appeared at that moment, their uniforms perfectly fitted and their movements with the grace of years of training.
The three friends were completely speechless.
“Young master,” Mako said professionally, “the maids and butler are asking if you’re ready to review the training schedules.”
“In a moment,” Ren responded, trying to ignore how his friends were looking at him with pure envy.
When the guards withdrew, Li was the first to speak.
“Brother,” he murmured with reverent amazement, “your life is unfair.”
“Completely unfair,” Tao agreed.
Even Anuar seemed to have temporarily forgotten his religious fervor, replaced by simple adolescent envy.

The following two days were dedicated to visiting the three locations Selphira had identified for the restaurant. The butler insisted that both of Ren’s parents learn to evaluate properties appropriately, so the visits became improvised lessons about location, traffic flow, and architectural considerations.
And during the second visit, they experienced an encounter with one of those called ‘clueless nobles’.
A young noble, probably seventeen or eighteen years old, observed them with an expression of obvious disdain as they examined the space from outside. His tunic was embroidered with the emblem of a minor house, and he clearly hadn’t received the memo about exactly who Ren Patinder was.
“Disguised workers looking at properties in this district?” he muttered loudly enough to be heard. “What’s next, beggars in the royal palace?”
Ren’s parents immediately tensed, their years of experience with social contempt activating automatic responses to shrink and apologize.
But Ren simply turned toward the young man with a neutral expression.
“This property,” he said calmly, “is being considered for my family. Is there a problem with that?”
