Main World, Green Tree Castle, Inner Circle Villa.

Dunstan, with a pipe dangling from his lips, looked like an ordinary old man. He unconsciously strolled outside the villa, a habit he had recently developed.

"Good day, Your Excellency Dunstan!"

Unlike before when the garden was deserted, a maid who was watering the flowers stood up and bowed to him.

Hello, Brigitte!

Dunstan's spirits lifted immediately. "Sulu... he's back from his trip? That's really..."

He was somewhat speechless.

Because Sulu had made such a big fuss before, Dunstan thought the other party would disappear for a long time.

He hadn't expected them to return so quickly; it was quite beyond his expectations.

'It seems that Lord Sulu's matter went very smoothly?'

Dunstan muttered to himself.

"Yes, sir, would you like to come in and have a cup of black tea?"

Beatrice laughed.

"Hmm... I miss your honey cookies..."

Dunstan made an excuse to enter the villa, where he saw Sulu wearing a loose bathrobe, seemingly having just taken a bath, reclining on a soft chair, reading an old newspaper.

At this point, all that's missing is having a dog or something nearby.

Dunstan chuckled, "As a successful person, I think you're missing a few butlers and servants, as well as a purebred hunting dog."

"Successful people?"

Sulu shook his head and put down the Mystic Daily.

He just saw someone he knew up there— Isaac and his dog Harlock!

This college student, whether unlucky or lucky, seems to have successfully advanced to become a [Wolf Shepherd], and has partnered with Harlock to become a private detective, solving many major cases. Now, as a representative of ordinary professionals, he is trending towards becoming a national idol.

It must be said that Isaac was quite lucky. The Federation needed to cultivate a sufficiently approachable image for professionals, and he happened to be in the right place at the right time, riding the wave of opportunity.

"Yes, as the Federation's youngest multimillionaire, I wonder what you think?" Dunstan chuckled. "You should take a look at that Wireless Telegraph company's financial statements; you're already a millionaire."

"Is that so?"

Sulu remained calm, his expression blank.

Modern secular currencies hold little appeal for him anymore.

"How was the trip?" Dunstan sat down opposite Sulu, Beatrice immediately served him black tea.

"It's alright, but I didn't bring you any gifts."

Sulu shrugged.

"That's such a shame..." The regret in Dunstan's eyes was genuine; he was genuinely curious about where Sulu had gone.

The essence of an [Arcanist] is continuous exploration and learning.

"However, Your Excellency, there is indeed something I need your permission for."

Sulu straightened his posture.

"Please speak." Dunstan's expression also became serious.

"I want the legacy of the [Eclipse Mage]," Sulu stated his request.

"The inheritance of the path of the Mage?" Dunstan glanced at Sulu, not believing that he wanted it for himself.

After all, within the Inner Circle of Green Tree Castle, there is an even better path to becoming an [Arcanist]. Although it may not lead to success due to insufficient intelligence, it still surpasses the [Mage] profession by a considerable margin.

Perhaps... it's for the family, or for a younger generation or friend?

Dunstan thought for a moment, then cheerfully replied, "No problem."

If Sulu had asked for the [Arcane Caster] class, he might have hesitated, but the [Mage] class, as the orthodox advancement of the [Apprentice] class, has a wide-ranging lineage and is not unique to Green Tree Castle.

"However... I remember your contribution points are already negative, right?"

Dunstan glanced at Sulu, making the latter feel slightly ashamed.

Previously, in order to collect materials and refine the ' Sealing Card ', Sulu borrowed a large number of points from the Inner Circle. Now, exchanging them for inheritance would require an even larger sum.

"But..."

Dunstan said, "There is a mission here, summoned by the Federation. If you are willing to go, not only will your previous debts be wiped clean, but the inheritance of the [Eclipse Mage] can also be included. The Federation's reward afterward will also be yours."

"Oh?"

Sulu touched his brow. Inspiration knows no bounds. Interacting with symbols and information in the Dream Spirit World, he gained some kind of revelation.

'It seems... this is Dunstan's true purpose, just like last time... Why do I have a feeling this is related to the Dream of the Ancient God?'

According to the prophecy, I have to go on this mission whether I want to or not.

Thinking of this, he smiled, "Since it's a mission involving the Inner Circle and the Federation, please leave it to me."

"Actually, it's not entirely up to you alone; Siso Hisoka will go with you."

Dunstan chatted about other things, promising to deliver the legacy before the mission began, before taking his leave.

He walked out of the villa and suddenly stopped a short distance away, his pupils gleaming with a purple light.

As Arcane Caster and the chief of the Green Tree Council, he not only used his fifth-order essence but also mobilized the power of the ' Mist Lock '!

In Dunstan's Arcane Eye, although the villa where Sulu originally lived had some protection, if he wanted to force his way through, he could still barely detect some things.

But now, the entire villa is enveloped in a layer of seven-colored light, which is beautiful and completely blocks out all information.

"He... has gotten stronger again? But this power... why do I feel that even if I use all my Inner Circle and unlock the Mist Lock, I might not be able to deal with it?"

Recalling their meeting, Dunstan felt that Sulu had become increasingly unfathomable.

Moreover, the other party seems to possess an extremely powerful and wondrous Curio.

With these two factors combined, even within the Inner Circle, Dunstan had no confidence in subduing Dunstan.

"That's... astonishing speed! He might... have a chance to break through the forbidden realm! If he can survive the malice of so many beings!"

Dunstan muttered to himself, then walked away with his hands behind his back.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but his back view seemed a little hunched.

Inside the villa.

Sulu stared at the ball of seven-colored light in his hand, lost in thought and remained silent.

"The ' Dream Realm ' Demigod does indeed have hidden dangers... Sivinardo... I've seen some of your plans clearly now."

"I must get involved in this major event, the Dream of the Ancient God."

"And sixth-tier professions must also be taken into consideration."

Sulu wasn't a fool. He had spent a lot of experience to deduce the path after the sixth rank, all in preparation for his own seventh rank!

The career path at the seventh tier is determined by the foundation at the sixth tier.

The development prospects of those paths were the most important factor influencing his decision on which sixth-tier profession to pursue!

As for the fifth-tier inheritance that needs to be supplemented, he is not worried at all.

[The Fallen] Rhode has it.

As for [Eclipse Mage] and [Dream King], even if a complete inheritance cannot be found, as long as there is an initial class, Sulu is confident that he can deduce them using the Attribute Panel.

All he cared about was the path to development after the seventh rank!
