I am a mage, with an infinite mana bar!

"Eli Frey?"

Carlisle gave Lynn a strange look. "How do you know Eli Frey?"

Judging from his tone, he seemed to know Eli as well? After guessing, Lynn tentatively offered an answer.

"I was asked by her to find someone for her."

Carlisle seemed to have anticipated this. After hearing the story, he stepped forward emotionally, even forgetting the danger beside him.

"Are you looking for a woman named Charlotte Fenrir?"

Lynn remained silent at the opportune moment, appearing as if she wanted to keep her employer's secret.

Carlyle took this as a tacit agreement, his red eyes filled with surprise and urgency. "Mr. Lynn, if possible, I would also like to ask you to find her as soon as possible, confirm her safety, and, while you're at it, also deliver a letter to her for me..."

He gradually became hesitant; if it weren't for the fact that vampires are naturally pale, he might have already started to blush.

"I'll write that letter and send it over tomorrow. As for payment, I'll use that bottle of Destiny Potion as payment. No, if you really find her, I'll give you an extra bottle!"

"What a stroke of luck!" Lynn was somewhat surprised. He had already decided to help Eli find someone, and Carlisle's request was purely an unexpected bonus.

To avoid any misunderstanding, he confirmed, "How did you and Ms. Charlotte Fenrir meet?"

Carlisle's eyes darted around, and his voice became somewhat distorted as he said, "Actually, I don't really know that lady formally. I've just bumped into her a few times at social events and overheard some things about her..."

He emphasized the word "coincidentally," making it sound even more unnatural.

"In short, she was a young woman with an elegant demeanor and noble bearing, and she had beautiful golden hair. I... I happen to have something I'd like to discuss with her."

Friend, your crush is written all over your face... Lynn nodded slightly, seeing through it but not saying anything.

"No problem, once I find her, I will give her your letter and pass the message on to you."

Carlisle immediately smiled and said excitedly, "Thank you so much, Mr. Lynn!"

He had been secretly searching for Miss Charlotte for a long time, but to no avail. Even though he knew that Eli Frey and she were close friends, the city lord's house was not a place he could easily enter.

Who would have thought that this sorcerer, who made the deal by chance, would accept Eli Frey's commission? Just who is he?

Moreover, the concentration spell he just used was quite peculiar, so exquisite and long-lasting. His magical skill was completely beyond what one would expect for someone his age!

Carlisle looked at Lynn with increasing curiosity, even awe. He even began to suspect that Lynn had a mysterious and powerful magic teacher behind him, someone he could not afford to offend.

He felt a pang of regret for his previous rudeness towards him, and his attitude immediately became much more respectful.

"Mr. Lynn, if the commission is completed, you'll receive a discount on any potions you purchase from me. Furthermore, for limited-edition potions like the Potion of Destiny, I can prioritize supplying them to you if needed!"

Lynn simply gave a faint "hmm," put away the Frost Ring, and said, "If there's nothing else, please leave. I need to rest."

Dawn was approaching, and he had barely slept all night; waves of drowsiness were washing over him.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave now." Carlisle still didn't go through the main entrance. He didn't even bother to glance at the strangely decorated main entrance with its pile of tables and chairs. He nimbly climbed onto the windowsill, enveloped in gray mist, and instantly transformed into a small bat.

"Mr. Lynn, please find her!" the little bat said solemnly, then flapped its wings and flew out of the half-open window.

"Phew—" Lynn endured her exhaustion, quickly closed the window, drew the curtains, then locked the potion of destiny in the cabinet where she kept her money, and put the key under her pillow. As soon as her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep immediately.

The next morning, Lynn was awakened by a light knock on the door.

After he painstakingly moved the tables and chairs blocking the door and opened it, he was greeted by a fresh and pretty face with a sweet smile.

"Good morning, Lynn! Oh, you look like you didn't sleep well at all yesterday!" Eli's smile quickly turned to surprise.

She carefully covered her mouth with her hand, looking at Lynn's heavy dark circles with concern.

"Hey, what happened?"

It was only then that she noticed Lynn's somewhat messy room and the door with its broken brass handle.

Lynn waved weakly, scratching her messy hair as she did so, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Eli opened his mouth, then finally remembered his purpose, forced a smile, and hesitated, "I'd like to invite you to breakfast with me. Are you... available now?"

……

In the restaurant on the first floor of the Iris Hotel, Lynn contentedly put down her cutlery.

If there's anything more comforting than a hearty breakfast, it's Eli's [Clarity Spell]!

Although it was just a zero-ring spell, it was enough to clear his sluggish mind with a gentle wave of his staff, just like waking up refreshed after a good night's sleep.

"However, this spell can't be used continuously. I do feel more awake now, but my body is honest; fatigue keeps piling up. I need to really rest!"

Eli gave a serious warning.

While eating breakfast, Lynn told her about how Gray suddenly appeared the night before and was stopped and taken away by Barton.

After all, this matter was closely related to her, so there was no need to hide it. As for the sudden visit of the potion merchant Carlisle, there was no need to mention it.

Lynn thought that Eli probably didn't know that there was such a vampire who had been secretly watching his friend.

Eli was shocked when he heard this. He felt ashamed, thinking that he had tried to persuade Lynn to help him yesterday because he sympathized with the orcs' plight.

"I never imagined that Gray was actually a participant in this accident. The Corruption Cult... I seem to have heard of that name before. They originated from the Green Tower, which advocates nature and harmony, but their ideology runs counter to the Green Tower's. They are chaotic and have multiplied without restraint..."

As she spoke, she shivered, as if she were thinking of some unappetizing scene.

Lynn was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that Eli, as a noble lady, would have so much knowledge about cults. This was different from what he had imagined a noblewoman to be.

However, after gaining a preliminary understanding of the Frey family, he quickly figured it out.

Eli was not a sheltered hothouse flower who had been kept in a high place since childhood. She was clearly involved in magical knowledge and social interactions, actively absorbing nourishment from the outside world.

Otherwise, a noblewoman of her age, coupled with her status as a healing mage, would not be able to appear in the wilderness inhabited by monsters.

She probably has quite a few trump cards to protect herself, just like the shield that Barton cast on me... Lynn thought to himself.

"The Magic Association has taken him in for questioning. There are many mages who are skilled in mental magic, so we should have results soon."

Seeing Eli's green eyes sparkle, as if he were anticipating the outcome of the interrogation, he smiled and said:

"Although it may not be that quick, we can go and ask first. By the way, there's something I'd like to ask Mr. Barton for help with."

"What is it?" Eli blinked and asked curiously.

"I have a bottle of magic potion and would like him to help me identify it."
