Chapter 24: Joint Operation

The Aurora Order’s Saint of Secrets, Botis… Mr. World wants to hunt him? Magician Forsi’s first reaction was that she had misheard, since Gehrman Sparrow did not seem to have any connection to that Saint of Secrets.

However, she quickly linked it to the thing called a Star Worm that had just been mentioned and roughly formed a guess.

This suddenly made her rather excited and agitated, because she also wanted to hunt the Saint of Secrets Botis to avenge her teacher’s family. It was only that her strength was too low and she could not offer sufficient payment, so she had always suppressed the idea deep within her heart.

Although it sounds like Mr. World does not plan to personally act, Madam Hermit is also a Sequence 4 demigod, and behind her is the Queen of Mysteries… I can provide the greatest help within my ability! As thoughts flashed rapidly through her mind, Forsi cast her gaze toward The Hermit beside her, waiting for her to respond.

The Hermit Cattleya considered it and said, “Botis is very likely a saint of the Apprentice pathway. Hunting him will be extremely difficult. Moreover, behind him are Rose of Redemption and the True Creator’s favor. At my current level, relying purely on myself to complete this task is almost hopeless.”

“You can seek help from the Queen of Mysteries. I will also arrange other collaborators for you,” Klein made The World Gehrman Sparrow answer hoarsely. “The payment is priority in choosing the final spoils, as well as mysticism knowledge that can allow you to finish digesting your potion within this year.”

It is already December… The Hermit Cattleya felt her heart stir. After considering it, she said, “When the time comes, I will attempt it, but I cannot guarantee success.”

No matter how difficult the task of hunting the Saint of Secrets was, it was still not as dangerous as actively receiving the Hidden Sage’s infusion. And from the latter, she might not necessarily obtain mysticism knowledge that helped with digestion. There was a considerable chance it would be mathematics, machinery, literature, or some other content.

“No problem. As long as you make a serious attempt, even if it fails in the end, I will still give you some mysticism knowledge as compensation.” The World Gehrman Sparrow nodded and confirmed the transaction.

At that moment, Magician Forsi finally could not hold back and took the initiative to speak.

“Mr. World, Madam Hermit, can I join this task? I might be able to provide some help.”

I would have come looking for you even if you hadn’t said anything… The Fool Klein secretly laughed and made the dummy World nod gently.

“There is a place reserved for you among the collaborators for this task.”

Magician Forsi was not surprised at all. Rather curious, she asked, “What can I do? What do you need me to do?”

Gehrman Sparrow replied in an extremely calm tone:

“Be the bait.”

“…” Forsi opened her mouth but could not immediately say anything. She felt as though she had known from the beginning that things would turn out this way.

The World Gehrman Sparrow continued, “Likewise, you will have the right to choose from the spoils, only after Madam Hermit.

“Also, during this period, I can help you Record Beyonder powers such as Travel.”

Magician Forsi had never expected any payment to begin with. Successfully avenging herself would be her greatest gain—and afterward, perhaps she could even obtain additional rewards from her teacher. Hearing this, she no longer hesitated and nodded.

“All right.”

The World Gehrman Sparrow then turned his gaze toward Miss Justice.

“How is your Dreamwalker potion digestion progressing?”

Thanks to the exploration of Groselle’s Travels and her persistent acting during this period, Justice Audrey’s potion digestion had advanced quickly. Her eyes moved slightly as she recalled the details, then said, “I have long since summarized the acting rules. In another two or three months, I should be able to finish…
