"?"
Ree Shil was a bit confused.
Putting aside how the other party could see it, he had killed quite a few demon monsters during his almost 100 days in Instance.
Having bloodshed on his body, wasn’t that a normal thing?
"Please co with ."
The monk stood up and led Ree Shil deeper inside.
"To beco a registered demon exorcist, you need to pass the on-site assessnt of the Demon Extermination Residence."
"But don’t worry, although it may be difficult for ordinary people, it should be easy for soone like you who has already eradicated demons."
"It’s just a routine matter, to verify its authenticity."
He continued to introduce while walking.
"..., wait."
However, as Ree Shil listened, he couldn’t help but feel that sothing was off: "Don’t you need a recomndation letter?"
"Oh? You even know about that?"
"Learn from a master→ Obtain the master’s approval and get a recomndation letter→ Pass the assessnt of Demon Extermination Residence→ Collect the Artifact, isn’t this the whole process?"
"What you’re talking about is the process for Senior Demon Exterminators. To beco a low-level registered demon exorcist, you just need to directly take the assessnt at the Demon Extermination Residence."
"???"
"Of course, we won’t limit those with talent and strength from becoming exorcists. Just because one doesn’t have a ntor, doesn’t an they lose the qualifications to be an exorcist."
The monk continued speaking in front, but Ree Shil couldn’t keep up.
He carefully thought back, and indeed, the phrase "Senior Demon Exterminator" appeared in Little Jingle’s introduction.
But...
Opening the task panel, he began to ticulously go over the historical records from the beginning.
As a result, he found a clue in the first record.
[Final mission, beco a registered Demon Exorcists]
[Task Stage 1, Obtain Exterminator Thirteen’s favor]
[Hint: With Exterminator Thirteen’s help, you can achieve more with less effort]
Achieve more with less effort, achieve less with more effort...
Thud!
He was rendered speechless on the spot.
Achieve more with less effort ant putting in a lot of effort for little gain.
Achieve less with more effort was the correct phrase, aning putting in little effort for big gains.
This task system... It wasn’t serious!
But the system didn’t indicate any errors, and they indeed wrote "achieve more with less effort."
He couldn’t bla anyone but himself for not paying attention!
He always had task bugs, but this ti he got played by the task instead.
Damn it!
"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Hearing the sound, the monk turned back to ask.
"No, it’s nothing."
Ree Shil stood up again and shook his head.
He could only console himself, as upon reflection, he hadn’t really lost out.
If he hadn’t followed Exterminator Thirteen, he wouldn’t have t the card player and gained 10 extra card draw chances.
Nor would he have acquired the chain mission and a B-rank material card.
All in all, although he spent ti, the overall gains were definitely worth it.
"You ntioned a recomndation letter earlier, do you have one?"
This ti, the monk asked again.
"Will the assessnt for senior demon exterminators be more challenging?"
Ree Shil asked in return.
"Indeed, it will be much more difficult. Low-level demon hunters, if they don’t get one or two major missions, usually need ten years or more just to complete small tasks to accumulate enough points for promotion."
The monk replied.
"Oh, I did have a recomndation letter before, but it’s gone now."
"Please give the simplest package."
Ree Shil pulled out the envelope and directly tore it apart.
Once he completed the mission, he would be done. There was no need to make things more difficult or complicated with the senior assessnt.
"Hehe, of course, it’s up to you."
One corner of the torn paper slipped to the ground during the tearing process, and the familiar handwriting and signature on it caught the monk’s eye: Exterminator Thirteen.
"I didn’t expect that Exterminator Thirteen finally took on an apprentice."
He smiled.
Exterminator Thirteen, after all, was a well-known demon exterminator in their jurisdiction.
As one of the outstanding mbers of My Family, his strength wasn’t sothing needed to be ntioned, ranking in the top five in their jurisdiction.
But he was always unwilling to accept an apprentice, which had already upset the higher-ups of the Demon Extermination Residence fearing that he might suddenly die, and his abilities would be lost forever.
"Does the master know him?"
"Yes, he once worked in our residence, and he is quite righteous."
"Oh? How so?"
"Every month when we receive our salaries, he would co to play Pai Gow with and lose so money to ."
"..., I knew it, wait a minute, you, a monk, gambled with him? You don’t seem like such a good person either."
"Hehehe, my apologies, Amitabha."
The monk laughed and didn’t refute.
During their conversation, the two arrived at the Combat Arena.
The Combat Arena was vast, and there was no one using it at this ti.
At the end of the arena, there was a white pillar.
The shape of the pillar was quite strange; it wasn’t smooth but uneven instead.
Moreover, fan-like branches were extending from both sides of the pillar.
From a distance, Ree Shil pondered that it might be so large bone from a creature, standing upright here.
Unexpectedly, the destination the monk was leading him to was also this weird bone.
"The exorcist’s assessnt is actually very simple, let explain it to you."
"This bone cos from a species known as Wicked Demon."
The monk placed his hand on the bone’s surface and laughed, "As Exterminator Thirteen’s apprentice and having received his recomndation letter, you should be aware of the invasion of the Celestial Visitor nearly a century ago."
"I’m not his apprentice."
Ree Shil shrugged, "But I have heard about that event."
To this, the monk rely responded with a smile.
Considering his previous tearing up of the letter, he thought it was rely a slip of a rebellious tongue.
Exterminator Thirteen himself was known for his rebellious behavior, so it wasn’t surprising for his apprentice to be rebellious as well.
