It was dawn.

Su Lu had beaten Mary to opening the front door of the apartment.

In comparison to when he had left, he now had a carry-on suitcase in his hand.

“Woof…”

In the middle of dozing in the living room, Hallock lifted his head. His bright blue eyes fixated on Su Lu’s suitcase, giving an expression as if he had discovered “Ha’s Secret Treasure”.

“I command you… not to touch this box and everything inside it!”

Su Lu hastily added. The suitcase contained some transcendent materials he had bought from the party, which were rich in spirituality and naturally attracted the attention of the silly dog.

If he hadn’t warned it in advance, this dumb dog might have stolen and buried the suitcase somewhere.

“Whine…”

Erha lowered its head in despair, it seemed as if its dog life was filled with tragedies.

“Mary will be here soon… she will make you some delicious food.”

Su Lu thought for a while, then went back upstairs to his bedroom. He pushed the suitcase to one side, sat down at his desk, and started writing a letter.

This was intended for Isaac, it included the profession information of the [Shepherd] and a reminder of some dangers and taboos!

‘To successfully take up an occupation is not simple… for example, the [Shepherd] requires some body-modifying transcendent materials, which must be ingested according to a formula, and a certain ritual must be carried out… this part ill be up to Isaac to prepare.’

‘Furthermore… it’s not guaranteed that one can succeed in officially becoming a Transcendent. There is a probability of failure…’

‘When you think about it, the ratio of the effort to the gain for professional individuals is proportional… The emergence of occupational registration might lead to some unimaginable consequences… Besides, those who possess power, inevitably possess influence. Transcendents aren’t ordinary people. Once exposed, how will they be accepted? How can equality be achieved? Should we establish a privileged class within the federation? However, if we relentlessly pursue “equality”, should we use the Federation Army to suppress the Transcendents?’

This made Su Lu, who was thinking of last night’s conversation, feel a headache: ‘Forget it… These are the problems that those at an upper position need to consider, I don’t need to worry about it.’

He finished writing the letter, sealed it with the parchment he had obtained the night before, and wrote down the address and the recipient.

‘As for the cost of purchasing professional information, consider it a gift from me… I wish you good luck in taming Erha!’

Thinking of Hallock downstairs, a slight smile emerged from Su Lu’s lips.

Immediately afterward, he pulled out another document from his suitcase. It was the information of the Mysterious Realm that he had obtained from trading with the ‘Saintess’:

“32 East Minglang Street, Boroch Building, a thirteenth floor that doesn’t exist appears at night… Disappeared individuals have never reappeared… Sealed by the Eleventh Bureau!”

“Wandering old woman… Human-shaped beast, moving within the range of Lore city, total number of victims unknown… Attacks by swallowing…”

“Fish monster… Fishing boats on the port’s shipping routes often encounter fish monster harassment, suspected of the presence of a school of fish monster in the nearby waters…”

“Doffran Mountains… Strange lights have been seen, suspected to be a transcendent creature…”

“I wonder if any of these contain the materials I need…”

Su Lu rubbed his eyes and sighed.

Storage type marvelous items are hard to come by, and they are very valuable, He might have to make them himself.

To make such marvelous items with his current skill level, it might just be enough, but he still needed transcendent materials rich in spatial properties.

Such materials are extremely rare, but not nonexistent, he would have to try his luck.

“At last night’s party, there wasn’t a single one of those items, not even the raw materials… Therefore, I could only buy some auxiliary materials… ”

The spiritual materials in the suitcase were assorted, including auxiliary materials needed for the making of trick cards, those needed for experimental rituals he planned, and those needed for creating marvelous items.

“In reality, there are many odds and ends, but very few are actually useful… At most I’ll just create the trick cards first, then conduct a few experiments…”

Obtained ‘Knowledge of the Mad God’, Su Lu’s mysterious knowledge had greatly improved.

He planned to use ritual magic to hasten his recovery process, incidentally, it could also enhance his attributes.

Of course, it needed to be used cautiously and prudently.

“Additionally… The creation of storage type marvelous items, in reality, is knowledge from Shewinado…”

Creating storage type marvelous items is no simple task.

It requires corresponding knowledge, one’s own skills, and suitable materials! There might only be a few “Master” craftsmen in the entire federation capable of it.

Shewinado’s knowledge was a treasure trove for Su Lu, where there was so much more to do than learning a few languages.

However, much of the knowledge was fragmented and incomplete, thus Su Lu needed to organize it and use his own mysterious knowledge to fill in the gaps.

“Hmm… I can go investigate these locations first… Perhaps there will be suitable magical creatures.”

Creator’s with spatial abilities are often very eccentric, Su Lu was merely trying his luck.

“Perhaps… the direction I’m searching is slightly off… ”

His eyes moved.

“After the state of ‘soul burning’ disappears, maybe I should consider searching in the Dream Spirit World? That’s where the real treasure is… but I need to be careful of the danger.”

Thinking of this, Su Lu tidied up the various documents and lay back on the bed.

For him, a night of tiredness only required a little rest to fully recover.

The real troublesome thing was, the sensation of his soul burning.

Click!

After an indeterminable amount of time, the sound of the door opening came from below.

From the quiet house-watching, Hallock didn’t call out, so it was likely Mary who had arrived.

Not long after, the bustling sounds of cooking, along with the aroma of frying meat and baking bread wafted from the kitchen.

“Mary’s cooking skills are getting better…”

Su Lu got out of bed, washed up, changed his clothes, and walked down the stairs.

“Good morning, sir! The newspaper has been ironed!”

Mary popped her head out of the kitchen to say so.

“Thank you!”

Su Lu looked at Hallock, noticing it was already jubilantly eating from a dog food bowl on the side, and couldn’t help but smile.

‘Why does it seem… oftentimes, some people aren’t as happy as dogs?’

He casually sat down on a chair, “I will be going out during the day today, you don’t have to prepare dinner for me. Later, you can go mail a letter for me. Also… Hallock is coming with me today!”

Before Mary could respond, Hallock’s ears perked up.

“Yes, you’re coming with me today!” Su Lu said to it.

A dog needs to be taken out for walks and Hallock seems to have many abilities worth exploring, at least it has a keen sense of smell!

‘Perhaps… I can use it to track down some mysterious creatures?’

A thought flashed in Su Lu’s mind: ‘Or raise it into a ‘treasure-hunting dog’?’

He sensed that Hallock’s spirituality was quite strong and was still growing.

‘Perhaps… even if Isaac successfully advances to the [Shepherd], he may not be able to subdue Hallock… at least it would have to be a second-ranker [Wolf Shepherd]…’
