Novel Full Chapter 204 Request
Vale took note of the Request Number before he went to the officials at the counter.
When they saw him walking, they all gently smiled at him.
“Are you a first-year student? There’s only one mission you can accept on the bulletin board. Are you thinking of taking it?”
The one who spoke was a middle-aged woman who had curly blonde hair. She noticed Vale’s patch on his uniform so it’s easy to tell that he’s only a first-year student.
“I’m thinking of accepting it. However, is there any other information that I missed?” Vale replied as he reached the counter.
“Well, that mission is difficult. It says that you have to drink three potions to earn the Contribution Points. However, just drinking one potion would require you to recuperate for at least a month or two. If you’re looking for a quick Contribution Point, you have to forget about it. You’d probably need at least three months before you get that 1 Contribution Point. Nevertheless, it is still a relatively safe mission compared to going out.” 𝘳.𝑐ℴ𝓂
The woman kindly explained as she noticed that Vale didn’t know much about the missions being offered here.
As Vale realized that she was accommodating, he decided to ask some other questions.
“Thank you for letting me know. I’ll think about it first. Right, is there any way I can safely get in contact with Evil Creatures or Arcane Art Practitioners that are… criminals?”
“Hmm?” 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Vale’s sudden question surprised the lady. She wasn’t sure why Vale was asking this but she still took a moment to think of an answer.
“Evil Creatures are difficult to find. Most of them are in hiding in their nest and even if one of them were detected, the nearby Arcane Academies will quickly purge or capture them. Of course, if you visit the Blue Fog Town, you’ll find plenty of them.” The middle-aged woman said, followed by a chuckle.
Her companions also laughed after they heard her mention the Town. This response piqued Vale’s interest as he continued to ask.
“It’s my first time hearing about the town. Can you tell me more about them?”
These people aren’t busy so he might as well chat with them to keep them occupied.
“You haven’t heard of the Blue Fog Town?” A middle-aged man wearing a cream-coloured coat asked in surprise.
“Hey, he’s only a first-year student and probably never left his house before entering the Academy. It’s normal that he’s unaware of it. Myrna, share with this kid what you know about the Blue Fog Town” The other guy said as he looked at Vale with a gentle smile.
Myrna is the name of the middle-aged woman who greeted Vale. She also seemed surprised that Vale wasn’t aware of the Town but she didn’t comment about it.
Soon, Vale learned that the Blue Fog Town they were talking about was an infamous stronghold of Evil Creatures and unwanted beings located at the northern border of the kingdom. It was said that the Town was moving around the Fluke Forest and Opulence Gorge and even the Practitioners of the Twelve Arcane Paths couldn’t exactly locate it…
It was said that when people are trying to find it, the Town would vanish or leave to a different place. However, once there are unsuspecting people around, the Town will immediately be within their sight reach and would lead to your doom.
“Is this real? Or are those just rumors to scare some kids from exploring the forest alone?” Vale asked as he couldn’t help but doubt what he had just heard from them.
“It’s real… However, you don’t have to think about it since even 2nd-Class Spellcaster would go there. You can consider visiting that place in the next decade or so.”
Vale wryly smiled at this since he was indeed a bit too weak right now to consider checking out that Town.
“Right, you’re also searching for criminal practitioners… You might want to ask Professor Lucius Angelart for that. I’m sure he can help you.”
“Professor Lucius?” Vale repeated. He had never considered asking the Professor for his request.
“That’s right. Although he isn’t a direct member, he is still an agent working for the Order of the Evanescent Vessel. He should have a way to fulfill your request.”
“I see. Thank you for letting me know, Ma’am and Sirs.”
“It’s fine… Are you not going to accept the Potion Tester Mission?” Myrna asked.
Vale shook his head at this and replied. “No… Perhaps if the reward was a bit higher than that, I’d accept it.”
“Good decision!”
After their brief conversation, Vale finally left the Quest Pavilion.
He didn’t know that as soon as he got outside, these three immediately contacted the Professor who posted this mission for 1 Contribution Point.

“Hmmm? Someone wanted to accept it but the reward is too low?” An old woman in a wheelchair spoke with a weak voice.
She already has white hair and a weak body but she’s still in front of her workbench working on her potion ingredients.
“Yes, Master Sherah… It was reported by Senior Myrna and her companions.” Another female voice answered and if Vale was here, he would surely recognize her. She’s Maya Featherstar and the current Top 1 student of the first-year batch.
“Hmph… They’ll drink three or six of my potions for free and they’re still looking for more reward? Isn’t it an honor to drink my potions? They won’t even die from those potions since they have a lesser effect on those who consumed the Darkness Possession…” Professor Sherah complained after hearing Maya’s words.
The latter can only helplessly smile and listen to her Master until she is done.
After criticizing the unknown student for almost 10 minutes, Professor Sherah finally stopped and turned to Maya.
“Tell Myrna that the rewards will be 2 Contribution Points for every three potions they drink. However, They have to be able to drink six potions in one month.”
Maya raised her brows after hearing this absurd request. There was no way someone would accept this mission.
Once the third-year students learned that they would be drinking Professor Sherah’s potion, they would definitely decline this request, no matter how great they were.
Nevertheless, Maya can only nod and follow her Master’s request.
“I’ll let them know, Master Sherah. I hope someone will accept it as soon as possible.”
