“There are special requirements . ”

Soo Hyuk was sure of it . If a user fulfilled the requirements for receiving a quest, then the book would change colour .

“The reason I asked this . I already completed this quest . But can other users also complete it after me? I was curious . ”

“Ah . ”

Soo Hyuk exclaimed in realisation at the young man’s words . He had figured out why this person had asked about the colour of the book .

“That being said . ”

Soo Hyuk had also thought about this as well .

“If you see white, then I think that you can’t clear quests that other people have already cleared . ”

Said the young man .

“Yes, but……”

Soo Hyuk tilted his head at his words . He thought that there was an important detail missing .

“It could be because I haven’t fulfilled the requirements, right?”

It could also be because Soo Hyuk hadn’t fulfilled the requirements yet, so there was still a possibility of the book turning blue .

“Can’t it be because I haven’t fulfilled the requirements?”

Soo Hyuk asked the young man .

“No . You should’ve cleared the requirements . When I got the quest, I had just become a Magician at level 10 . ”

“Then……”

Soo Hyuk trailed off . According to his words, Soo Hyuk should’ve fulfilled the requirements to receive this quest . But it was white instead of blue .

“Yes . That means that if a quest is cleared, it returns to being white . Of course, some quests could be cleared multiple times . ”

Soo Hyuk nodded to his words .

Silence descended again after the discussion . Before the silence could turn too awkward, the young man stood up from his seat .

“Then I’ll get going now . ”

The young man said to Soo Hyuk as he stood up .

“Ah, yes . It was nice meeting you . ”

Soo Hyuk said back as he bowed slightly . The young man smiled at the gesture and then headed towards the library entrance . After young man left, Soo Hyuk started cleaning up his desk .

“If you complete a quest then other people cannot complete it again . ”

According to the young man’s words, special quests can only be received once . No, more precisely, it can only be completed once . Because you can’t get the reward if it has already been completed .

“So, it’s a race . ”

A race to see who would find and complete it first .

“Then……”

The inheritance and the stat quests that he got weren’t completed yet . But the promotion quest ‘Successor of Lapis’ was . Doesn’t that mean the ‘Arch Mage’s Descendant’ is unique to Soo Hyuk?

But it wasn’t confirmed . There could be other routes to change into the ‘Arch Mage’s Descendant’ . Just because it was a special job didn’t mean only one person could get it .

“……Hoo . ”

Soo Hyuk breathed out deeply . He cleared his mind and opened another book . Within seconds, Soo Hyuk was in his own world .

“Here’s your token . ”

“Thank you for work!”

Greeting the NPC, Walter exited the library and received his token . Then, he thought while walking down to the street outside the library .

“I think he’s going to be big . ”

He felt that they would meet again . And that the young man will bring a storm to Pangea soon .

“That concentration . Plus, he knows about the blue books as well . ”

He had other reasons other than his gut feeling . First, that young man had an unimaginable amount of concentration . But that wasn’t all . He was reading a white book with that amount of concentration, and it didn’t seem to be blue to him either . If that man had been reading like that until now, Walter couldn’t imagine how much wisdom he had .

Second, he also knew about the blue books . Most users didn’t know about the white books, much less the blue books . This was because an overwhelming majority of users had never even visited a library before, and there weren’t any articles about them on the Pangea homepage .

Of course, friends could tell each other, but no one had uploaded any articles on the homepage . Which meant that most people didn’t know about them since there was no information about them .

Walter was the same . He never told anyone about them or uploaded any article except for Soo Hyuk just now .

The reason he revealed it to Soo Hyuk, who already knew about it anyway, was to figure out the system and to make a friend . Maybe he knew more than Walter did . If he did, then maybe he should ask the next time they meet .

Walter stopped at a bench and opened his quest tab to see his new quest .

[Special Quest – Larkan’s Second Inheritance]

[Where is the actual grave of Larkan? There is a clue near the Alerian Mountain Range . Find the clue and grave!]

[Quest Reward: ??? ]

“The Alerian Mountain Range……”

Walter had to go to the Alerian Mountains for the quest .

“This is going to be hard . ”

Pangea had a massive world, but Walter knew too well about the Alerian Mountains . No, there was no way he couldn’t know . It was where the top rankers were hunting currently . Those monsters are at level 300 .

The Alerian Mountains was a place where even rankers could die if they were careless . Even if he was a triple element Magician, exploring the Alerian Mountains was a mere pipe dream for Walter at his level .

“Let’s grind levels for now . ”

Walter closed the quest . It wasn’t a quest that he could complete currently . After he closed the quest, he started walking towards the Hunting Grounds .

“Haa……There wasn’t a decision made today either . ”

The Lord of Healing Kachu muttered softly while sighing . It was currently the fourth day since the gathering began .

“We have to come to a decision by tomorrow . ”

The immeasurable talent was going to a Central Spire two days from now . They had to choose which tower he was going to go to before then .

“How did it even leak?”

They had to choose tomorrow . The reason was because the information had already spread to other factions in Pangea .

“That Perin already knows . ”

The Imperial Head Mage of the Pade Empire, who has magic power and influence equal to the 10 Spire Lords of Matab . Originally, he was visiting Kachu as an old friend, but now the circumstances had changed because he had heard about the new immeasurable talent .

“At this rate, the Empire will snatch the new talent . ”

If the Empire really did snatch the new talent, it would be worse than other Spire Lords taking the talent .

“We have to decide one soon . ”

Kachu looked at each of the Spire Lords . ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

“I have to go for the push . ”

Like the other Spire Lords, Kachu also desired the immeasurable talent . But he also didn’t want his greed to cause the worst situation . If they didn’t come to a decision, Kachu was going to push the talent into a random tower irrespective of the others’ opinions .

“You all look tired . ”

Kachu began .

“Why don’t we start again tomorrow after getting a good rest . ”

“Yes . ”

“Let’s do that . ”

“A good idea . ”

The other Spire Lords agreed to Kachu straight away as if they’d waited for his words . Then, the seats started emptying one after another .

Kachu also got up from his seat and headed to a magic circle to warp to the Tower of Healing .

Kachu had set his destination and the magic circle started to light up .

“……?”

Kachu looked back at that moment .

“Pavian?”

It was Pavian, who had arrived late to the gathering . He had stood up .

However, Pavian didn’t head to his magic circle . Kachu kept looking at Pavian to see where he was going .

“Kako?”

* * *

Pavian was heading towards the Earth Spire Lord, Kako .

“As expected . ”

Kako thought when she noticed Pavian heading towards her .

“Leto was right . ”

He had told her that someone was likely to approach her .

“If it’s the Tower of Poison……”

Pavian hadn’t reached Kako yet, but she already guessed his reason for approaching .

“Black Dragon’s Essence!”

Thinking of the treasure that she wanted, Kako stared at the approaching Pavian with an expectant smile .

“Kako . ”

Pavian called as he pulled out the seat next to Kako and sat down .

“Can we talk for a bit?”

“Why?”

“You already know . ”

“……Hehe . ”

Kako smiled even wider to Pavian’s words .

“What do you want?”

Pavian asked Kako .

“The Black Dragon’s Essence . ”

Kako replied bluntly .

“……Hmm . ”

Did Pavian not expect her answer? Or was he considering the worth of the Black Dragon’s Essence?

Pavian was locked in thought at Kako’s answer . Of course, he was only pretending .

“Okay . ”

Pavian said to Kako after some thought .

“If the SSS grade comes to us, we’ll give you 200g of the essence . ”

“200g?”

“……Why? Is it not enough?”

Pavian made a flustered expression at Kako’s reaction .

“No, it was more than I thought . I expected around 100g . ”

Kako replied to Pavian . At her unexpected words, Pavian smiled slightly and continued,

“Then you’ll help us?”

“Yes . ”

But before Pavian could react, Kako hurriedly added .

“But!”

She hadn’t ended yet .

“Change the terms . ”

Pavian’s terms were only applied if the Tower of Poison got the talent . What if Kako helped but they still couldn’t snatch the talent?

Then they would get nothing after helping the Tower of Poison and giving up their chance .

That meant that the deal was heavily favouring the Tower of Poison, and Kako wanted to juice all the benefits .

“……How?”

Actually, Pavian was already considering changing the terms . After all, Kako was no fool . How would she accept the deal without some guarantee?

“Give the Essence first . Then I’ll help . ”

“Hoo . ”

Pavian sighed in relief .

“Yeah, I already expected this, didn’t I?”

Kako’s change was one of the things Pavian had already considered, so Pavian couldn’t help but sigh in relief when he heard it .

“So . . ”

Pavian said as he raised his hand .

“We’ll send it to you by today . ”

Pavian smiled as he held out his hand
