Su Yun entered the living room, sat on the sofa, and made some operations within the system.
The Fantasy Crystal that had been condensed was also taken out by Su Yun, and then, a character panel appeared.
It was the panel of Artoria, Su Yun's agent.
[Agent: Artoria Pendragon]
[Gender: Female]
[Age: 16]
[Template Held: King Arthur (fate)]
[Level: 10]
[Experience: 0/1900]
[Mood: 98/100]
[Health: 100/100]
[Magic Power: 97%]
[Current Status: Standby]
The above was Artoria's panel. As for level and experience, they were conventional items that were easy to understand at a glance.
As for mood and health, they could be understood as the sum of a character's actionability, life energy, and other functions.
Magic power indicated the amount of usable energy. The template Artoria possessed was her own, and the power she used was the same as the Servant King Arthur, which was magic power.
In other words, different modules used different types of energy.
After all, the real world was not a game. Even though Su Yun had made it very game-like, it was impossible to display it in a completely digitalized manner, so this was how the agent's condition was determined.
At the same time, the personal panel also had a personal body icon. If any part of her body had a problem, it would be clearly marked.
Su Yun was very satisfied with Artoria's condition. He then put on a serious face and said, "Young lady, you bear the great mission of eliminating mysteries and saving the world. How can you be so lazy? Therefore, fight, girl! Tonight, begin your extraordinary journey!"
"Start by eliminating a mystery!"
In a special room within the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office, Artoria was fast asleep.
Suddenly, the girl seemed to sense something and her eyes snapped open.
Then, a look of astonishment appeared on her face, which then turned into certainty, and finally, she wore a subtle expression of acceptance towards this strange setting.
This was because a transparent panel appeared before her, displaying a line of text.
[Newcomer Mission: Eliminate Mystery]
[Mission Description: As a contractor of the Planetary Will and an agent of Destiny, you have the obligation to eliminate the mysteries of this planet. Considering you are only a trainee agent now, this mission is your beginner's task.]
[Mission Objective: Eliminate the mystery at the designated location.]
[Note: You can seek the help of secular forces to complete the mission. There are no mandatory requirements for completion; just do as you see fit.]
The text above was simple and easy to understand, without any riddles. It was simply asking Artoria to complete a beginner's mission.
As for the Planetary Will contractor and Destiny mentioned within, Artoria was not surprised at all.
This was because when she received the inheritance of King Arthur, Artoria had simultaneously received a piece of information.
That was that King Arthur had signed a contract with a mysterious organization called Destiny. This organization was the agent of the Planetary Will, with a very grand background.
The content of the contract between King Arthur and this organization was that when the planet encountered an insurmountable terrifying threat, King Arthur would act as an agent of Destiny and join the salvation operation, making efforts to save the world.
As an agent of the Planetary Will, signing a contract with Destiny was essentially equivalent to signing a contract with the Planetary Will, so the text directly stated "contractor of the Planetary Will."
This information was superficial, merely surface-level intelligence. As for the internal workings of Destiny, who its members were, and how long it had existed, none of that was mentioned.
However, Artoria was not a fool. She naturally understood that an entity capable of acting as an agent of the Planetary Will and signing a contract with an ancient figure like King Arthur must have existed for an eternity.
Clearly, she was not the only one who had signed a contract with Destiny.
This was why Artoria, who had just gained her powers, was assigned a beginner's mission as a newcomer.
However, there was another problem: if Destiny had existed for so long and was so powerful, why had mysteries resurfaced to this day without any extraordinary individuals appearing to put an end to them?
Until the last time a mystery attacked the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office, Destiny had never appeared, nor had there been any extraordinary beings on the human side.
The first time humanity truly defeated and eliminated a mystery with extraordinary power was when King Arthur, the residual will of Artoria's past life, appeared.
So, what had Destiny been doing all these years?
Was it unable to act due to the requirements of the World Will?
Or perhaps...
Destiny had already met with misfortune?
Although it was incredible, thinking in the worst-case scenario, it seemed highly probable that Destiny, as the guardian force of the planet, had indeed met with misfortune by not acting.
"If I could meet other Destiny members, these speculations could be confirmed..."
The girl was somewhat troubled by this but did not dwell on it.
Since the mission had arrived, she would simply carry it out. Having long been prepared and already having received professional training from King Arthur, Artoria lacked neither the courage nor the strength to face the Mystery head-on.
At most, her heart was filled with confusion and curiosity regarding the situation with Destiny, while she also felt that this method of issuing missions was quite trendy and completely unexpected; one who didn't know better might think they were playing a VR game.
However, its style was consistent with the Light Screen, showing that it all belonged to the side of the Planetary Will; it was just unclear whether this was done directly by the Planetary Will or by certain individuals.
The former would be easy to explain; one could simply treat the Planetary Will as a god without a physical form.
If it were the latter, the amount of information implied within would be immense.
Taking off her pajamas and changing into her casual clothes, Artoria then pressed a communication switch.
Soon, the door rang and opened, revealing a beautiful female staff member from the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office. This person was specifically assigned to act as a liaison for Artoria, and any requests were to be made to her.
Currently, as long as it was something that could be done directly, this person would satisfy Artoria's requests, and even if she couldn't, she would immediately report it to her superiors.
In reality, this was not a desk clerk, but an elite investigator and one of the trump cards of the Countermeasures Office, possessing rich experience with Mystery. Because of Artoria's special status, she had been transferred over to serve as the liaison.
This person was clearly of mixed heritage, with rare purple hair and the exquisite facial features of an Easterner combined with the high-boned frame of a Westerner. As for her level of curvaceousness, it was quite high; at the very least, the uniform of the Countermeasures Office worn on her body perfectly accentuated her figure.
Moreover, there was a tear mole under her right eye, which added a mysterious charm to her.
Seeing her, Artoria said politely but seriously: "Ms. Baal, I have an urgent matter that requires me to head out. Please inform your Chief Murata Himeko of this."
The investigator named Baal was slightly taken aback: "Right now?"
Artoria nodded: "Although it is sudden, I must go. It concerns a Mystery!"
Upon hearing that it was related to a Mystery, Baal immediately nodded: "Understood, I will report it immediately."
Although she had many doubts and was completely kept in the dark, as an elite investigator, she would not ask about things she didn't need to know; she would simply carry out her mission, executing it like a Shadow Warrior.
Even though it was three o'clock in the morning, the response speed of that workaholic Murata Himeko was still very fast. She issued an order directly—the Emergency Operations Department of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office was to mobilize, the Nine-Tailed Fox Squad was to assist Artoria, and a transport plane was to be prepared; they were to ensure Artoria reached the location of the Mystery at the fastest possible speed.
There was only one goal: assist the Special Consultant of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office, Artoria Pendragon, in annihilating the Mystery!
That's right, Artoria was now a Special Consultant for the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office, and this was something she had proactively proposed during the day, as well as one of the topics of conversation between her and Murata Himeko in the conference room!

Let me clarify here: the Archbishop of Destiny does not mean the protagonist is an Otto template.
Rather, this is just a faction alias. The choice was made simply because the name sounds good. After all, compared to Chaldea, Rhodes Island, Command Center, Port Fortress, and the like, Destiny truly stood out instantly, and the word Destiny is the most suitable to represent the protagonist's current situation.
