It Is Decided
When Elise heard these words, a swallow was heard in the room.There were many reasons why Desmond chose Elise.One was that the building where Elise was located, the one immediately to the left of the business premises, was for sale. The two buildings, which were partially connected, could further enhance the guild's security and concealment capabilities.The second reason was Elise's reliability.The bonuses Desmond had given her, the extra money he had paid for each item of clothing he bought, and even all the investments he had made had never been stolen. Elise had distributed everything equally, used all the investments for the business, and had not used a single gold coin for herself.Elise was a trustworthy woman.The third reason was that Elise was a beautiful but genuinely simple woman. She was someone who could be hidden in plain sight yet clearly stand out within the Guild, a woman whose identity was barely discernible.The fourth reason was that Elise was already devoted t
Perfect Potion
This wouldn't be Desmond's first alchemy experiment. After all, there were many alchemists in Moon's city, and although he hadn't trained under them, he had managed to blow up a few cauldrons completely.Still, he had to do his job properly.He knew that such a powerful cauldron wouldn't explode, especially because of the potions, meaning that any mistake would only result in the formula being ruined.Even if he hadn't noticed, even if he had focused entirely on the alchemy cauldron, Professor Lily and the students following her had already entered the room and taken their seats in the observation chairs to watch Desmond.Lily could use this as a live demonstration, which, of course, explained why she had permitted her students to watch.Desmond instantly opened his hand and focused on his palm.Within seconds, a pitch-black fire appeared, impenetrable to light yet strangely still managing to glow.Professor Lily's lips curled upwards.When Desmond threw the pitch-black fire at the pu
Level Up!
Desmond instantly found himself on the first floor. He was inside a cave. It was a cave with patterned walls, sharp stones on the ceiling, numerous rustling sounds all around, and a strong smell of blood.To be perfectly honest, he had never encountered such a feeling and such a heavy smell before. This was truly a new experience.After pulling himself together, he immediately reached for his inventory. He quickly pulled out a sword he had acquired from the system, one that was powerful yet inexpensive, capable of channelling magic exceptionally well, and began to carefully make his way through the dungeon.He had hunted animals before, but that had been on the surface, and those animals were not magical. Now, he wanted to hunt not just an animal, but a magical beast, or even more than one.He began to advance with slow, careful steps, and with each step he took, those muffled growls became more vivid.Desmond began to grip the sword in his hand even tighter, and although his heart wa
Hunt
While Desmond was still reading the system window, another window had popped up in front of him, right next to the other window, and it was larger:[1- Random Skill Acquisition 2- Random Item Acquisition 3- Random Attribute Acquisition]When Desmond read what was written in this system window in front of him, he was completely stunned. He didn't know he had to choose something. The system had told him something about abilities, and he was already planning to purchase things available in the system soon.So he would already have a lot of abilities, but... this random ability acquisition seemed far more appealing to him than the other two options.Perhaps he would gain a special skill. It could be a skill not available in the system shop... Couldn't it?He raised his hand and directly selected the first option.[Random Skill Acquisition option selected!]A sudden system window appeared before him and then disappeared along with the other two windows.Within a short time, another syste
Conquering the First Floor
When he returned to the dungeon area, Desmond noticed that there were at least twice as many students here today as there had been yesterday.All eyes were fixed on him because of yesterday's incident, but he paid no attention and entered the dungeon as if nothing had happened, choosing the first floor again.He could have tried to obtain a dungeon map, but frankly, he knew that no matter how much time passed, he would not leave here without clearing at least the first floor.So there was no need for him to turn back to the pillar.As he began to advance into the large dungeon, he managed to hear the same faint wheezing sounds as yesterday.Hearing the wheezes one after another, he naturally drew the sword from his inventory and, this time, to avoid the danger he had faced yesterday, donned at least one of the light leather armour pieces to cover his chest.He could have worn heavier armour, but he was primarily a wizard. He hadn't even attempted to pursue training in cultivation.The
Into The Boss Room
When he raised his palm directly towards the entrance of the chamber, he had gathered nearly 20% of the mana in his body into his palms.This time, what he would do was send a large, enormous ball of mana towards the entrance of the chamber.Of course, this was quite a difficult spell. It would be madness for someone with only two magic rings to attempt it, because a single wrong move could cause the spell to explode in their hands.Still, Desmond was so focused that even the sounds of the magic monsters approaching the room did not reach his ears.The mana began to swirl again and again where his palms met, and the airflow inside the room reversed from inside to outside.Within a short time, growling sounds appeared at the entrance to the room."Mana Blow!" Desmond shouted in a loud voice.From where his palms met, a semi-transparent, incredibly powerful mana ball, perhaps nine metres in size, in the shape of a perfect circle, shot out.As the mana ball travelled through the air, it
Cleared
When the enormous fire rune formed just below the ice wolf, Desmond had moved as far away as possible and then snapped his fingers, shouting, "Activate!"With that, the enormous rune glowed and, in just seconds, a pillar of fire had enveloped the ice wolf:"RUUUUUUHHHA!!!"A strange screech began to emerge from within the pillar of fire, but a boss monster would not fall so easily.As if nothing had happened, a large ice spell, which began to seriously lower the temperature in the room, first surrounded the pillar of fire, then Desmond's spell.The room's temperature began to drop rapidly, and even Desmond himself felt the cold to the bone.Still, that certainly didn't mean he was going to die here.He didn't hesitate for even a second. Instantly, without fear, he lunged towards the ice wolf and unleashed the presence of the jet-black fire on his sword as much as possible.The sword began to glow as if it were fire itself.Desmond used the boost spell again and, channelling nearly 40%
Princess Penelope
"Are we heading towards the main palace, Princess Penelope?"This young girl was none other than Penelope Cora Umbra, the second princess of the Holy Empire. The young girl had wholeheartedly wanted to attend the academy, but in order not to be overwhelmed by great privileges, she had tried to continue her life at the academy as if she were from another noble family.This also required her to wear that bright brooch she often pinned to her clothes in the outside world.Otherwise, the emperor would not have sent his daughter to the academy. After all, nobility brought many privileges, but the depth of jealousy that could form in the hearts and minds of young people was immeasurable. Of course, Emperor Evander did not want his daughter to be under such emotional pressure.Penelope wasn't the type of girl to be broken by such things, but a father's wishes seemed more important in this matter. Especially when that father was an emperor, it became even more serious."Yes, as quickly as pos
Plans
Mycroft immediately shut his mouth when he saw Desmond looking at Lisa. Lisa noticed this and looked at Desmond."What are you thinking?" Desmond asked with great curiosity."I think what Mycroft said makes sense. If possible, we could set up a system where they could pass through the buildings' sewage areas in a closed manner, my lord. It would be possible to build a [spider channel] under the buildings," said Lisa.Desmond frowned and asked, "A spider channel?""It's a technique used since ancient times, sir. It's a system that allows many areas to be connected like a spider's web and enables communication to spread widely. Although it's a technique used between kingdoms and even empires. It would be possible to do this underground, connecting one or two neighbourhoods," Lisa replied.Desmond nodded his head up and down. He was thinking."It will be very obvious. We will be stating outright that we are doing something secret," said Desmond."If we deliberately revive the areas we ar
Starting The Plan
As soon as Desmond learned he had obtained the permits, he sprang into action immediately.The first thing he did was send George to the capital church and summon six inquisitors.The inquisitors dropped whatever they were doing and each managed to arrive at the mansion. Desmond handed them their purchase funds in cheques one by one and gave them the noble surnames to be used immediately."Purchase every building in the three neighbourhoods, excluding the clothing store, along with their businesses. Spend a hundred million gold if you must, but whatever you do, purchase every single one," Desmond ordered.The group led by Edward left the mansion within minutes.Desmond remained at the mansion and began making plans with several members of the Iron Fang. Frankly, they needed to reach a sufficient number of soldiers in a short time. Especially after all these events, even if it meant leaving behind many false clues to make it difficult to trace everything back to him, at least his mansi
