Rui took a seat after he purchased his accounter. He scrolled through his profile in interest.

"Grade ten." He murmured. He felt the grade was no longer apt for his current level of power. He was a grade-ten Martial Apprentice even before he grew significantly stronger thanks to the previous training stage.

He scrolled through his profile, glancing over all the details it specified before going over his inbox. He had opened his inbox for commissions a while back when he came out of training.

"Woah." His eyes widened. "Three hundred and twelve personal commissions?!"

Rui's fame had pierced into the right circles in the Kandrian Empire. There were many with more than enough wealth to commission him, who were willing to splurge in order to gain the services of one of the best Martial Apprentices in the Kandrian Empire.

Of course, the only reason not every single clientele in the Kandrian Empire coveted him was because there often was a thin line between peak Martial Apprentices and Martial Squires in so far as whether wealthy clientele wished to hire the former or the latter. If a mission was difficult even by grade-ten standards, then many wealthy clientele would rather not take any chances and hire a Martial Squire who is guaranteed to succeed.

Rui sat down as he took his time browsing through the many personal commissions made for him. They were, as always, diverse and varied.

The sheer number of personal commissions he had received were not something he would be able to finish in a short period of time. He quickly began screening them one by one.

"Man." He muttered. "There are so many personal commissions for a personal fighter."

Ever since his identity got revealed in the Martial Games he had eternally been flooded by commissions to represent the clientele as their representative fighter in events similar to the Martial Games across the Kandrian Empire. The many elite participants of the Martial Games had finally learned of his true identity and sought to commission him with hefty bonuses, hoping to rope him in.

Of course, Rui wasn't all that interested in permanently participating in the Martial Games. The Martial Games was perfect for him a year ago, but at his current level of power, he was too strong for any Martial Apprentice he had ever faced.

He ignored all representative fighter commissions for the time period.

He also threw away all defense-class missions. Frankly, they weren't worth the time in his opinion. These missions despite their difficulty never fully guaranteed conflict that would give him the real combat experience that he was looking for. Unless he was absolutely certain he would see action, he would rather avoid bodyguard missions if he could.

"There is a surprising amount of shadow class missions." His eyes lit up in interest. "Maybe I'll take one of them this time around."

He didn't expect to be personally commissioned with shadow class missions because they were usually the most divergent and demanding class of missions as far as the skillset necessary. One needed to have good stealth and information-gathering capabilities. Rui had no history or experience with stealth, nor was it indicated in his profile that he had such capabilities, thus he was a bit curious as to why anyone would commission him for a shadow class mission.

"Espionage, eh?" He mused as he read through the information volunteered by a clientele.

[Shadow class mission: Espionage

Clienetele: Hruvalian Inc.

The target of Mission: Freefel limited.

Difficulty grade: 7

Mission commencement: immediate.

Successful remuneration completion: 60 gold coins.

Mission execution location: Freefel limited branch office, the town of Kining, Kingdom of Verlis.

Mission summary: To gather classified and confidential information on the research and development projects of the Freefel limited corporation.]

"Interesting." Rui murmured. "The clientele is based within the Kandrian Empire, but the target is in a different country."

Rui shook his head. Although he was interested in undertaking shadow class missions, he did not want to engage in something as boring as corporate espionage. It was one of the most boring kinds of missions that only exercised stealth and information-gathering capabilities. It wasn't a field that would give him the real combat experience he was looking for.

It was also the type of mission that required an immense amount of patience. He was simply unwilling to engage in non-combat-oriented commissions unless he really needed to.

His need for direct head-on conflict conflicted with how shadow-class missions worked, fundamentally. The defining condition for a mission to fall into the shadow class was the necessarily covert nature of the mission. The missions needed to be furtive and clandestine. This usually meant head-on open conflict was automatically not an option unless absolutely necessary.

He kept scrolling until he ran into an interesting mission.

[Hunter class mission: Surveillance

Clientele: Ministry of Environment and Ecology

The target of mission: The Serevian Plateau, Beast Domain

Difficulty grade: 9

Mission summary: A variety of mysterious and unnatural environmental and ecological changes have occurred within the Serevian Plateau. These changes include changes in migration patterns of fauna, changes in flora density and distribution, unnatural seismic radiation, and other phenomena. The cause is suspected to be singular and thus simpler to identify. The mission goal is to primarily identify the cause and eliminate it if possible.]

"Interesting..." Rui murmured. This was the first mission pertaining to the Beast Domain that he had ever come across before. What was interesting was that this wasn't a personal commission but rather a mission recommendation from the Martial Union as far as compatibility went.

"I suppose the mission does suit me to some extent," Rui admitted. A phenomenon that required sensory capability, specifically when seismic radiation was involved was one that he possessed the skill to handle.

Furthermore, the Beast Domain was dangerous even for Martial Apprentices and only the upper echelons were qualified to enter even the outskirt regions such as the designated mission location of the mission at hand. Rui stared at it contemplatively, it was certainly an attractive choice.
