Magicians never make wishes

"I joined the Adventurers' Guild a month ago, becoming a registered adventurer and joining Squad 408. Team members..."

"The first mission I participated in was... but the mission failed due to unforeseen circumstances..."

"Later, he took on a private mission, participating in Earl Barnes' search for his daughter, and encountered underground pollution..."

"You seem to easily encounter some big events..."

The manager suddenly stopped speaking and looked at Ronan meaningfully.

"Is the information I provided correct, novice adventurer, White Night?"

"That's not quite right, Mr. Morgan," Ronan shook his head, speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"The private job I took on wasn't to find the count's daughter..."

Actually, there was some information he didn't know, especially the part about "preparatory apprentices of the Elemental Academy 'Senro Fire Language'".

The manager chuckled softly and leaned back in his chair.

"To mobilize so many people from so many different factions at the same time, we must prioritize everyone's common goal; otherwise, we wouldn't have created a list of priorities..."

No wonder the count showed little interest in information related to pollution and simply gave him a few silver coins to get by.

It doesn't receive the same level of attention as the Adventurers' Guild.

Therefore, considering the manager's words:

The 'Special Meditation Method Storage Stone' in Sequence 3, which is the meditation method stone I picked up, actually belongs to the Count's daughter?

If the count hopes to find his daughter through this stone, his plans are likely to fail.

A magician who had already mastered the basics of stargazing meditation subconsciously touched his nose.

"Bai Ye, since you belong to the Elemental Academy, you can be considered as the future elite force of our camp."

"Your adventurer rank will be raised to intermediate, and you will enjoy the corresponding benefits."

He put away the solid gold pocket watch on the table, reached into a locked drawer, unlocked it, and took out a pale mask.

Ronan glanced at the solid gold pocket watch.

Good grief, isn't this that lie detector gadget from before...?

So, it's only now that you finally believe me?

"I have already reported your intelligence. This is a reward that the higher authorities have decided to give you, along with a special mission."

"Don't rush to refuse. If you can complete this task, your adventurer level will be raised to high level, and you will also obtain this unique equipment."

He pointed to the mask on the table.

"Moreover, during the mission, you can learn a wealth of high-value knowledge, which will be of great benefit to you after you enter the Senluo Fire Language."

"Most importantly, the association will use all available resources to ensure your personal safety during your mission."

The manager listed many advantages of the mission: it would increase the adventurer's level, yield high-value knowledge, and ensure personal safety...

Such a good task certainly deserves to be used as a reward.

"Mr. Morgan, what exactly is the mission?" Ronan was very curious. Since he could refuse, he would like to find out first.

"Undercover Secrets Society, Wuyue City Branch".

Upon hearing this, Ronan's expression changed instantly, and he was about to refuse.

Why would I do such a despicable thing?

What good will happen to an undercover agent once they are discovered?

Before he could speak, the manager interrupted him first.

"Based on your intelligence, we've deduced that one of the 'mentors' of the Arcane Academy may be researching forbidden powers. Don't you want to find out who this person is?"

"Your teammate died because of that pollution. Don't you want to find the source and avenge him?"

"And that monstrous beast, it's involved in many secrets, don't you want to find it?"

……

The manager patiently guided him, continuously listing the aspects he might care about.

Although he didn't care about any of these things, there was one thing Ronan really cared about—finding Grayleaf.

He has preserved Gray Leaf's body, hoping that one day he can transfer her soul back.

"Mr. Morgan, if you wanted to transfer someone's soul, what methods would you use?" Ronan suddenly asked.

The person in front of him is the manager of the Adventurers' Guild, and he certainly knows more than he does.

"I have studied knowledge about soul transfer, but I don't know where to begin."

He sighed and said, "This is knowledge belonging to necromancers; as a non-spellcaster, it's too difficult for me to do anything about it..."

"The association does possess this knowledge, but it's not as valuable as the Secret Arts Society, which even has knowledge about necromancers..."

"Necromancer?" Ronan heard a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Before he transmigrated, his favorite class in the game was the necromancer.

But this was the first time he had ever heard anyone mention it in this world.

"Necromancer is one of the professions of necromancers after they obtain a class, and they are most skilled in necromancy-related soul magic."

The manager explained, "If there is a way to transfer souls, it's probably only the soul magic of this profession."

"So, have you decided to take the mission?" He looked at Ronan expectantly, then added,

"Don't worry about being recognized. As long as you agree to take on the mission, you don't need to worry about anything."

The administrator picked up the pale mask and waved it in front of Ronan.

"The reward you received from your superiors: a disguise mask."

"This mask has a mysterious origin and can block out all kinds of low-level detection."

Once worn, it can transform one's appearance and alter one's physical characteristics.

Ronan reached out and carefully took it.

He always gets a little nervous when he reaches out to take something from the association.

I'm terrified that if I touch it, it might suddenly trigger some kind of face-jumping attack, a massive explosion, or a soul invasion.

However, Ronan did pause for a moment when he received it.

He then acted as if nothing had happened and continued to discuss the details of the undercover mission with the manager.

"Lord Morgan, what do I need to do to infiltrate the Arcane Society?"

Ronan asked, secretly hoping it wasn't some kind of assassination plot against the enemy leader.

"That's a good question. It gets straight to the point about why this task can be a reward."

The manager paused, then said with a serious expression,

"You don't need to do anything."

"Huh?" Ronan wondered if he had misheard.

"Yes, you don't need to do anything during the entire mission. When the mission is about to end, someone will come and ask you to cooperate in implementing the plan. You just need to cooperate."

He added, "Of course, cooperating is something you can do, and it doesn't involve your personal safety."

"If I successfully learn the secret techniques of infiltration, can I do what I want?" Ronan wanted to see how much freedom this mission offered.

"Of course, you just need to pay attention to the coordination at the last moment."

He nodded, then gave a warning.

"Also, do not try to find the people who actually implement the plan, to avoid affecting the final implementation of the plan."

"Mr. Morgan, may I ask what the specifics of this operation are?" Ronan's curiosity was piqued; this mission truly deserved its reward.

"We'll talk about it when your adventurer rank reaches the advanced level." The manager smiled. "Since you've already agreed, go and prepare."

"Mr. Morgan, don't you want to see what I look like in disguise?"

"The first time you use the Disguise Mask, you'll be given the choice between male and female faces. Although I've seen both faces before, I doubt you'd choose to become a woman, right?"

"Of course not!" Ronan said righteously.

"However, you can just give me a code name that you use in the Mystic Arts Academy. It will make it easier for others to find you."

"Yeah, I'm thinking of one now..." Ronan immediately started brainstorming.

"Then let's call it, Daylight."

Seeing that the other party did not object, Ronan took his leave after confirming the details.

As Morgan watched his retreating figure, lost in thought, his gaze wandered, and he murmured softly to himself.

"It's up to you now..."

After leaving the Adventurers' Guild, Ronan found a nearby inn.

He spent one silver coin to rent a room for three days, hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door, and then locked the door from the inside.

After completing this series of actions, he finally took out his disguise mask.
