Chapter 5: Mission Book

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Snatching quest books was a common occurrence. Good missions often had generous rewards, but they were often accompanied by great risks.

Some quests even had level requirements, and only high-level mages could accept them.

The missions were divided according to color, which were, white, yellow, blue, red, green, and purple missions. The benefits and degree of danger were divided into the following levels: end of auspiciousness, minor auspiciousness, great auspiciousness, and great ominousness.

Generally speaking, the higher the level of the mission, the better the reward. Many long-term missions had phase rewards and long-term rewards for each mission. It was a very good reward.

However, Mage Apprentices could only accept blue missions, while Mage Instructors could only accept higher-level missions. The higher-level missions would have to be received at the higher-level mission hall.

However, there were exceptions. Lucky’s missions were usually less risky, and any mage with a mission level could accept them. However, there would occasionally be some extremely dangerous missions that were released for all mages to choose from due to the high rewards.

Mage apprentices usually received potions and gold coins from missions. It was rare to see good rewards. Therefore, every time these missions with high rewards were released, people would fight over them crazily.

Although it was stipulated that once an apprentice accepted a mission, no one else could fight for it. In reality, however, as long as they had not registered in the mission hall, many people would still use force to snatch other people’s mission books for the rewards. Even if it was registered, it did not mean that it was safe. If the mission recipient was determined to be unable to complete the mission, the mission he accepted would return to the mission hall and be fought for by others.

As for how to make others unable to complete the mission, there were many ways. As long as no one was killed, the academy had never paid attention to such matters. This also made some people even more arrogant. As soon as they saw someone get a good mission, they would stop them.

Miller and his gang, who were currently fighting for the quest book in the quest hall, were the representatives. At this moment, they had already forced the thin young man into a corner, and their eyes were like wolves staring at a fat sheep.

Miller and his gang were used to doing evil things. He relied on his status as a beginner mage and led his companions to do whatever they wanted among a group of mage apprentices.

Many mage apprentices had been bullied or robbed by them, but due to the gap between apprentices and mages, they could only be angry but did not dare to speak up.

“Sigh, Carl is in big trouble now.” A fat apprentice sighed. “He almost failed the last assessment and was injured not long ago. Originally, I could have been exempted from the annual assessment by accepting this mission. Now, I definitely won’t be able to pass.”

“Yes, he is. Carl is a good man. The spiritual plants he grows always have the best harvest.” Another bystander continued, “He even gave me his plant alchemy materials last time.”

“Miller is too despicable. Carl even made a potion for him last time.” A mage apprentice in a gray mage robe said.

“What’s wrong? Do you have any objections?” Miller heard the voice and looked over. The pressure in his eyes made these chattering apprentices not dare to speak.

They could only sigh on the side and secretly sigh for poor Carl.

It couldn’t be helped. This was how the strong preyed on the weak.

Kindness without strength could not do anything, not even protect itself.

Michael stood to the side, planning to wait for Mr. Royce to come over.

“Aren’t you going to help?” Little Bat asked.

“No thanks. This kind of thing happens often. He has to learn to protect himself. I can’t stand up and protect him every time.” Michael said under the demon spirit’s disdainful gaze.

Michael did not remember such a person in his book. He was probably just an ordinary passerby. When he first arrived, he scanned the area and did not find anyone worth investing in, so he stood lazily at the side and planned to watch the show.

Demir Academy, apprentice dormitory.

Mr. Royce sorted out the letters and specialties in his hand. His sister was not in good health. He wondered if she still had any household charms and amulets he had sent back last time. He picked up a pen, wrote some more, and packed them up. By the time he had packed up and sent it to his sister on his owl, it was already dawn.

“Oh no, I still have to register for the annual assessment with Michael.” Mr. Royce looked at the time and sighed. He hurriedly picked up the broom placed at the side, sat on it, and rushed towards the outer courtyard of the academy.

The broom of a mage apprentice didn’t fly too fast. Mr. Royce sprinted all the way to the outer courtyard of the academy and saw a notice on the examination hall that it was full.

He hoped that Michael wouldn’t blame him for delaying things. Mr. Royce was a little sad and planned to go to the reward hall to collect this month’s salary.

When he received his reward, he would treat Michael to a big meal in town. He hoped that he wouldn’t be angry. Mr. Royce thought to himself. He didn’t want to lose the thigh he had worked so hard to get because he was late.

“Isn’t this Michael’s underling? Why aren’t you with him?” the apprentice who was distributing the rewards asked mockingly.

“Don’t tell me you’ve been rejected by the others,” another apprentice mocked. “That’s true. I wouldn’t go with a good-for-nothing like you. I heard that you relied on Michael to pass several assessments?”

“Hahaha …” The group of apprentices laughed.

Most of the jobs in the Demir Academy were taken up by capable apprentices and mages, and it was the same in these places.

“Take your reward and leave. This might be the last time you receive your reward,” An apprentice said as he threw a bag of gold coins over.

Michael is my brother. “Mr. Royce picked up the gold coin, his fair face flushed red with anger. I’m afraid you people don’t even have friends and can only mock others in the dark.”

“Just you wait, one day. My brother and I will form a team that will become the most powerful mage team on the continent of Tyre.”

“Is the team called ‘Just my useless teammate and me?’ Hahaha!” The apprentices laughed even harder.

“Just you wait.” Mr. Royce resisted the urge to make a move. The reward hall forbade apprentices from fighting privately. The consequences of breaking the law were severe. This was to prevent some people from stealing other people’s rewards here.

On the other side, Michael was a little confused as he waited. No matter how slow Mr. Royce was, he should have arrived by now. At this moment, he suddenly saw the contents of the mission book in Carl’s arms.

You can get a few Magic Stones by participating in the mission.

Sorcerer’s Stones? Michael’s eyes lit up.

With this, there was no need to worry about Mr. Royce’s assessment.
