Recommendation Letter

A week has passed.

Han Dong wore out two fountain pens writing, then carried four notebooks filled with pages of writing to Commander Hugo's office.

Upon seeing such a workload, the first thing Hugo did was get up and check the number of hairs on Han Dong's head.

There was no sign of him going bald, and his eyes showed no signs of dullness.

actually.

This seemingly complicated work was not as tiring as the last month Han Dong spent writing his doctoral dissertation... At least this kind of written material only requires very ordinary rational reasoning, and it is not difficult compared to a doctoral dissertation, it is just that the workload is larger.

While shocked, Commander Hugo took out two gray badges that he had prepared beforehand, representing Class II personnel, and replaced the ordinary badge provided by the Knight Headquarters on Han Dong's body.

One of the gray badges has a question mark pattern embossed on its surface - representing the "Secret Keeper".

The other one features a magnifying glass pattern – representing the "Secret Unraveler".

"Hmm... Should we just choose like this? Is there no special awarding or promotion ceremony required?"

"Everyone is too busy to have time for these meaningless rituals."

To put it simply, although the "Secret Keeper" and the "Secret Unraveler" have different main responsibilities, they are not prohibited from communicating with each other.

In special circumstances, whether it's a slab of stone or a foreign object, you may need to assist in handling it.

In fact, Commander Hugo had previously given a hint to have Han Dong join the team that was deciphering the "Abyssal Demon Tablet".

Just as Han Dong reached out to accept the emblem symbolizing the "Secret Unraveler," Hugo also handed over a letter of recommendation.

"To participate in the True Destiny as a knight, you must have a letter of recommendation from Vice Commander or higher... Take the letter of recommendation to the Knight Headquarters for a series of registrations."

The Knight Headquarters will review your application and arrange for you to form a group with other individual or small teams of knights in the best possible combination, so that you can travel together to the Real Destiny Space.

If you have your own team registering together, that would be even better.

"Thank you, Commander Hugo... But isn't a week too short?"

"Sure, with your work efficiency, we can give you more time, as long as you finish the work that's piling up there when you get back."

"Good."

Just as Han Dong received the letter of recommendation and was about to turn and leave...

Commander Hugo, added:

"This is your first time participating in True Destiny... Generally speaking, Newcomer knights who have just joined the order need a year or even more of Knight Special Training to solidify their newly formed Talent Tree."

Only those who perform exceptionally well and Qualified One the tests will receive the team leader's approval and a letter of recommendation.

The True Destiny is several times more difficult than the Destiny Space you experienced as Knight-Errant, and it contains many uncertainties.

No guild leader wants to lose a promising Newcomer they've just hired.

I believe in your abilities... However, based on our several conversations, you seem unusually 'anxious'.

It seems there's a foreshadowing of fate that was planted during the Knight-Errant stage.

The Destiny Space you are about to enter is likely part of a chain of events; if you rush, Even Though you could be in mortal danger.

"Thank you for your concern, Captain. I will slow down."

"If you die... my work here will be in trouble."

If your friends haven't received their recommendation letters yet, I suggest you visit the Night Watcher Headquarters before registering; you might be surprised by what you find.

"Thanks."

When I stepped out of the Secret Hall again.

Han Dong went straight back to the mailbox at the crossroads.

Working in a confined space for long periods of time, the moment I breathe in fresh air, my tired brain becomes much more alert.

"It feels like I was pursuing a degree... It's pretty good! Now that I've been promoted to [Secret Unraveler], I'll be able to access even more interesting Abyssal Demon Tablet once I return from the Real Destiny Space."

Phew... Let's put these things aside for now.

The important thing is what's happening right now.

Han Dong immediately contacted his former comrades-in-arms via Clockwork Device.

As Commander Hugo said, even if Newcomer knight performs exceptionally well at the Knight Tournament, it is difficult for them to obtain a letter of recommendation in the short term.

Commander Kaimon saw Abel's shortcomings during the competition. In addition, Abel is currently Joint Cultivation by Commander Olivia. He can only obtain a letter of recommendation once Abel can fully control the mad beast within him.

As for Demps, he directly declined Han Dong's invitation on his own behalf... It seems that he has discovered a 'new continent' within the Misfortune Knight Order and is working hard to study demon techniques, and he is not yet ready to face his True Destiny.

Mia goes without saying.

Having just stabilized the state of the Insect Possessed outside the city, and not even having spent a single day in the Knight Order, there was no way they could obtain a letter of recommendation.

Wenli, a girl whose basic skills were not good to begin with, was undergoing special training in the Hell Knight Order, so Han Dong did not send her any messages.

However... one person responded to Han Dong.

"When are you going to submit the recommendation letter? It might take me a day to submit the application to the group leader."

"Okay, I need to go to the Night Watcher Headquarters ahead of time. Contact me again once you've prepared the letter of recommendation."

"Okay... By the way, you don't mean you want to end 'that thing', do you?"

We'll talk about it later.

Communication interrupted.

The Han Dong contacted was his first friend upon arriving in the Holy City, Cas Martini, who had broken through his seed to form the [Talent Tree - Overlord] and joined the Lionheart Knight Order.

It seems like Cas hasn't appeared in a long time.

Since Commander Hugo specifically mentioned the Night Watcher Headquarters, Han Dong naturally had to go there as well.

Moreover, after becoming Formal Knight, Han Dong should have reported for duty with the Night Watcher Medal he had previously acquired.

Back to the Underground Area.

Since it has been fully open to the public for some time, the Underground Area has seen a greater flow of people, and most people are covering their faces with hoods and keeping their breathing quiet to avoid getting into unnecessary trouble.

The Night Watcher Headquarters, located on the central street, is easy to find.

The headquarters building, which is predominantly black, is bustling with people... Many people stop in front of a special statue as they pass by the headquarters.

Standing there was a middle-aged man wearing a round hat, a studded cloak, holy water potion tucked into his belt, and leather trousers with studded leather shoes. His eyes were like those of an eagle.

He held a silver sword in one hand and a torch in the other.

The person's name and title are written at the bottom of the sculpture.

[Lyanhoth Gerald, the First Generation Night Watcher, and the Third Grand Commander of the Black Rose Knights]

Just as Han Dong was gazing at the sculpture that exuded a profound aura.

A familiar female voice came from not far away:

"What are you doing here?"

When Han Dong turned his head to look, he saw the girl he had faced in the final of the Knight Tournament, Diana Epsilon.

"I'm here to report for duty."

Han Dong immediately showed the Night Watcher Medal in his hand.

As Diana stared at the medal, she seemed to recall Commander Kuran's words from the past, and a strange emotion flashed in her eyes.

"Come with me..."
