Chapter 421: Chapter 90 Hunting Team Completion Plan_1

Ever since meeting Sir Friedman last night, Matthew Karen had spent the whole night tossing and turning restlessly.

Not only because of the duke’s high regard for him, which was heartening, but also because of the task the duke had given him: to form a new hunting team, participate in the new student hunt of the school’s hunting party, and then take the lead - at any cost, to suppress Sepulano’s momentum.

Matthew is not a novice to hunting.

When he was at Caron Castle, be it the annual spring and autumn hunts to Baddminton, or other esteemed invitations between young wizards under the moon, from childhood to adulthood, Matthew had participated in dozens of large hunting parties.

But this time was clearly different from the past.

Because he would be serving as a team leader, leading a hunting team to participate in a big hunt that is well known throughout the wizarding world. Although he was only participating in the derivative event of the Academy Cup, it was still a formal competition part of the event activities.

The only thing that worried the young vampire was that his hunting team hadn’t been fully formed yet.

A complete hunting team includes a main hunter, two auxiliary hunters, a hunting seeker, and a wandering hunter, a total of five official members. More formal hunting teams will also have some substitute hunters to replace members who are in poor condition between different events.

As for Matthew’s hunting team, let alone having substitute seats, he hadn’t even gathered the five official hunters yet.

Of course, it’s not that finding a first-year student who wants to join his hunting team would be difficult. Matthew has never been worried about this. He believes that as long as he speaks up, young wizards who want to get along with Karen’s family will come forward.

Matthew just wants to find someone who can match the existing members of the hunting team and make the Duke satisfied.

Such as Jiang Yu in the class, or Tang Dun.

Both of them were excellent choices in terms of family background and ability.

However, when he communicated with the first candidate, he noticed some ominous signs.

"The new student hunting competition?" Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard Matthew’s invitation: "Why, you are also considering participating in the new student hunting competition? I thought you wouldn’t be interested in a hunt of this level."

"Also?" Matthew sharply detected an unfinished sentence from Jiang Da’s monitor and couldn’t help asking: "Have you already joined another hunting team? Or has someone else invited you?"

Before Jiang Yu could speak, Li Meng next to her spoke up with a displeased look.

"’Someone else invited you’!" The young witch mimicked, humming in a weird tone: "My cousin is highly capable, talented... there are many hunters looking for her!"

Matthew stared blankly at the irritable little witch, unsure of what had offended her.

"Meng Meng!" Jiang Yu stretched out two slender white fingers and tweaked Li Meng’s ear.

Li Meng pouted her mouth and glared at the vampire in front of her.

"I’m sorry," Jiang Yu smiled apologetically at Matthew. Firstly, she apologised for Li Meng’s rudeness, then explained: "I haven’t joined any hunting team... But someone else has indeed approached me."

Matthew couldn’t help furrowing his brows.

"Is it someone from our class?" he couldn’t help asking.

"From our class... Tang Dun is also forming his own hunting team." Jiang Yu didn’t keep him guessing but instead reminded him, "If you plan to recruit from our class, then you need to hurry... Maybe you can talk to Tang Dun, in this way you can avoid targeting the same people."

This suggestion was very reasonable.

However, the content made Matthew extremely disappointed.

Because the information Jiang Yu hinted at in her words clearly told the young vampire that his second candidate had already fallen through.

"As for myself..." Jiang Da’s monitor smiled apologetically at Matthew: "I am really sorry... due to some other reasons, I am not considering participating in this year’s school hunting party."

"My cousin has other big things to do!" Li Meng muttered quietly, leaning on Jiang Yu’s arm.

Jiang Yu discreetly tugged at the little witch’s robe corner, signalling her to be quiet.

Eventually, Matthew turned around, disappointed, and left.

Behind him, the whispers of two witches, one big and one small, could be heard.

"Can’t you just be a little more well-behaved?!" This was the reprimanding voice of Jiang Yu.

"He was the one who was rude first..." Li Meng was obviously unconvinced.

"He is from a noble family of the moon and has always grown up in the ancient castle of the Karen family. It’s inevitable that he’s naive to the world... are you also sleeping in a coffin all day?"

Matthew’s ears twitched, pretending not to hear the whispers of the two witches. He walked briskly towards Tang Dun.

I don’t sleep in a coffin all day!

Although the young vampire was somewhat upset, seeing the tall figure not far away, he still tried to cheer up, smiled, and greeted him.

"Oh, you’re thinking of forming a hunting team too." After hearing Matthew’s words, Tang Dun scratched his head and spread his hands, seeming somewhat helpless. "Seems like this year’s new student hunting competition is going to get lively... Hahaha."

Tang Dun’s voice was very deep, shaking Matthew’s ears.

Coupled with the vampire’s extremely keen hearing, this made him even more uncomfortable.

"I originally planned to invite you to be my main hunter in my team..." Matthew was not willing to give up, he even gave up his own hunting spot, hoping to attract Tang Dun to change his mind.

But all his efforts were still in vain.

"If I hadn’t formed my own hunting team, I would have definitely accepted your invitation." Tang Dun very politely declined him.

As expected.

Matthew sighed, couldn’t help but turn his gaze to several male wizards sitting in the back row of the classroom.

Although Zheng Qing was a recipient of the Merlin Medal, he had some grudges with the Duke, so he could be ruled out. The young vampire’s gaze first slipped over the young student who was granted public funds to study there.

Then he looked at the others.

A child from the Zhang family, a blue giant, and a special admission student.

"If you plan on asking any of them, I’d advise you not to bump your head against the wall." Tang Dun, seeming to realize Matthew’s thoughts, reminded him on the side: "I’ve already invited Zhang Ji Xin before... But he didn’t agree."

Matthew turned his head and gave him a puzzled look.

"They have also formed a team." Tang Dun shrugged and gave Matthew another piece of bad news: "If I’m not wrong, they are all part of that team."

"Is there anyone left in our class who hasn’t joined a hunting team?" Matthew asked in a somewhat dejected tone, his expression appearing a bit annoyed.

He hadn’t anticipated running into so many troubles when he agreed to the duke last night.

"If you’re just looking for someone with the ’Alpha trait,’ maybe you can ask those transfer students." Tang Dun emphasized the term ’Alpha trait’.

Matthew could tell there was a deeper meaning in his gaze, he couldn’t help but nod, before turning around and walking away awkwardly.
