Transcendent Dawn

Chapter 423: Chapter 0423: Visit (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Main World, Green Tree Castle, Inner Circle Villa.

Dunstan, pipe in mouth, paced outside the villa like any ordinary old man—a habit he’d recently developed.

“Good day, Mr. Dunstan!”

In contrast to the previously deserted garden, a maid tending to the flowers got up to greet him.

“Hello, Bijie!”

Dunstan visibly perked up: “Su Lu, he… has he returned from his journey? That’s just…”

He struggled to articulate his thoughts.

Given the gravity Su Lu had previously displayed, Dunstan had thought the man would be gone for a long time.

To have him return so quickly, it was unexpected, to say the least.

‘It seems Mr. Su Lu’s affairs went smoothly?’

Dunstan mused to himself.

“Yes, sir. Would you like to come in for some tea?”

Beryl responded with a smile.

“Mm… I miss your honey cakes…”

With that excuse, Dunstan entered the villa. He saw Su Lu, fresh from a bath dressed in loose bathrobes, lounging in an armchair, reading old newspapers.

At this point, he seemed only lacking a dog or something else by his side.

Dunstan chuckled: “For a successful man’s life, I think you are missing a few servants and a noble-blooded hunting dog.”

“Successful man?”

Su Lu shook his head, putting down the Mysterious Daily.

He just saw a familiar face on it – Isaac and his dog Hallock!

This poor or lucky university student seemed to have successfully advanced to the [Wolf Shepherd], working with Hallock as a private detective. They had cracked many major cases and were now becoming national idols as representatives of civilian professionals.

It couldn’t be denied, Isaac was very lucky; the Federation needed to promote sufficiently personable professional figures, and he and other civilian professionals were at the right place at the right time.

“That’s right, as the youngest millionaire in the Federation, how does it feel?” Dunstan grinned: “You should have looked at that telegram company’s financial reports. You’re a wealthy man now.”

“Oh?”

Su Lu was nonchalant, showing no particular emotion.

Now, he didn’t find the worldly currency as enticing.

“How did your trip go?” Dunstan asked, sitting across from Su Lu, as Beryl brought over their tea.

“Alright, but I didn’t bring any gifts.”

Su Lu shrugged.

“That’s too bad…” Dunstan genuinely regretted. He was extremely curious about where Su Lu had gone.

The essence of an [Arcanist] is constant exploration and learning.

“But Chief, I indeed have a favor to ask.”

Su Lu straightened his posture.

“Please go on.” Dunstan put on a serious face.

“I want the inheritance of the [Erosion Mage].” Su Lu voiced his request.

“The inheritance for the mage career path?” Dunstan cast a glance at Su Lu, not suspecting the request to be for himself.

After all, within the Inner Circle of the Green Tree Castle, there were better options for the [Arcanist] career path, even though they may require higher intelligence, they were still far better than the [Mage] profession.

‘Perhaps…it’s for his family, or a younger generation, or a friend?’

Dunstan thought for a moment and happily said, “No problem.”

If what Su Lu requested was an [Arcane Caster], he might have hesitated, but the mage profession as a standard progression for [apprentices] has a wide spread heritage, not exclusive to Green Tree Castle.

“However… I remember your contribution points are already negative, right?”

Dunstan glanced at Su Lu, causing him to look somewhat embarrassed.

Previously, Su Lu had borrowed a large amount of points from the Inner Circle to collect materials to refine the ‘Sealing Card’. Now, inheriting a new profession also required a huge sum of points.

“However…”

Dunstan said, “There is a mission called by the Federation, if you are willing to go, not only will your past debts be written off, the inheritance of the [Erosion Mage] will also be included, and afterwards the Federation’s reward will also be yours.”

“Oh?”

Su Lu touched his brow bone, his inspiration was limitless, interacting with the symbols and information in the Dream Spirit World, he had received some sort of revelation.

‘It seems… this is Dunstan’s real purpose, just like last time… Why do I sense that this has something to do with the Dream of the Ancient God?’

‘According to the prophecy, whether I complete this mission or not, I must go.’

Thinking of this, he laughed, “Since it’s a mission from the Inner Circle and the Federation, please give it to me.”

“Actually, it’s not entirely handed over to you, Mr. Celsus will accompany you.”

Dunstan chatted about a few other things, promising to deliver the inheritance before the mission began, and then left.

As he left the mansion, he abruptly stopped in the distance, a purple glow shimmering in his pupils.

As an [Arcane Caster] and the chief of the Green Tree Council, he had not only used his own fifth-level nature, but also mobilized the power of the ‘Enigma Lock’!

Through Dunstan’s arcane eye, Su Lu’s mansion, although somewhat guarded, could still be forced to reveal some information if he wanted to break in.

But now, the entire mansion was wrapped in a layer of rainbow-colored light, stunning and dazzling, forbidding any information from passing through.

“He…got stronger again? But this sort of power… Why do I feel even if I exhaust the Inner Circle and open the Enigma Lock, I might not be able to handle it?”

Recalling their recent meeting, Dunstan found Su Lu increasingly enigmatic.

More than that, it seemed that Su Lu possessed a very powerful marvel.

With both combined, even within the Inner Circle, Dunstan felt he had no certainty of suppressing him.

“It’s…truly astonishing speed, he might…have the hope to break through to the forbidden domain! If he can survive amidst the ill intentions of many existences!”

Dunstan muttered to himself, walking away with his hands behind his back.

Perhaps it was an illusion, but his figure seemed somewhat hunched.

…

In the mansion.

Su Lu looked at the ball of rainbow light in his hand, hesitating in silence.

“The ‘Kingdom of Dreams’, this Demi-god artifact, indeed has a hidden danger… Shewinado… I’m starting to see through your plans.”

“I must involve myself in the big affair of the Dream of the Ancient God.”

“And I must include the sixth-level occupation in my considerations.”

Su Lu was not a fool, previously he had spent a lot of experience deducing the path after sixth-level, of course it was for his own seventh-level preparation!

The path of the seventh-level profession is determined by the foundation of the sixth level.

Moreover, the prospects of those paths are the most important factor influencing which sixth-level profession he should take office!

As for the needed fifth-level inheritances, he wasn’t worried at all.

He could get them from [Fallen] Rod.

As for the [Erosion Mage] and [Dream King], even if he couldn’t find the complete inheritance, as long as he had the initial professions, Su Lu was confident he could deduce them using the property bar.

What he was concerned about, was only the development of the path after the seventh level!
