*Gasp* "he rejected Liam's goodwill"

"Look, Liam looked pissed"

"Hahaha, serves him."

"Shhh…"

Liam was never surprised more. That foolish grin on his face was replaced by seriousness, "You really understand what opportunity you are missing?" He asked.

Azzy looked directly into his eyes as he replied, "There is always a right way and an easy way to earn money. I prefer the right way." It wasn't just an excuse to send away Liam. He had to keep his identity low. Teaming up with this exhibitionist would definitely increase his popularity in the city. The other guilds will learn about him; some will be interested in testing him, while some will have bad intentions for the guild. Why bother going through all this when he can just hunt down monsters and sell them to the guild? He is not here to become a famed adventurer anyway.

On the flip side, it would be better to partner with someone like Liam. Just a couple of quests would net him enough money to go to Silver City.

Why money, if one might wonder?

Well, while the world gates are free of cost, the staying would be bleeding him. Earlier, he had ten thousand grace shards, which was a lot of money in Aquilonis, but here at Astrael, just the cab fare and night stay at the hotel already bled him half of his savings.

But, even then, he would rather have a low-key life compared to making quick bucks with high profile life. Moreover, he was currently in his youth and exploring the worlds of Angels. He cannot just miss this opportunity to enjoy it, too.

At the same time, an idea popped up in his head where he could have both money and still maintain a low profile.

As a result, after plainly rejecting him and sending him away, Azzy waited for the receptionist as he filled out the form, just basic details like his name, age, race, hometown, etc.…

After a while, the receptionist returned, "I apologize… It's actually my second day. I didn't learn the rules properly."

"It's alright." Azzy waved his hand with a smile. "So, what did your superior say?"

The receptionist nodded with a smile, "he said it is not mandatory, and he gave me this." She brought out a scroll and said, "He said that if your bloodline purity is above 85%, registration fees will be waived. Would you like to test it?"

"Umm… No," Azzy rejected it again and placed forth the blue grace shard.

"Ah, okay." Her ears turned red in embarrassment. She, nevertheless, took it and gave him an iron medallion with a white crystal embedded in the center. "Here's your medallion. The Quests are there. At your current rank, you can only take one mission at once. You can bring the Quest scroll here. After receiving a stamp of approval, you may proceed with the quest. Umm… as a beginner, I recommend D-rank quest, rat and rodent hunting in the sewers." She pointed to the left. It is the unlimited hunting board, "there's no limit to numbers. And the Quest location is right in this city. You don't have to go anywhere, too. The rats and rodents are weak but high in number. You get paid well and also significant merits."

Azzy put the medallion away in his pocket and slowly walked to the series of Quest boards nailed to the walls everywhere on the ground floor.

Eventually, he walked to the unlimited quest-hunting board.

After scanning a bunch of quests at once, he plucked one and went back to the same receptionist, handing it to her, "I choose this."

"Eh?" Lysa's eyes widened upon reading the mission, the sole A-rank Quest that has no requirements. "This… there must be a mistake. I will return in a bit."

She rushed off into the manager's room once again but returned swiftly, this time while panting, "Mr. Azrael, the guild manager, said that anyone can take this mission, but it has a 99% fatal rate for everyone below Tier-60 soul realm. Its difficulty was originally D before but was raised to A difficulty, not because it is difficult to extract venom glands from Sand Vipers but because it is the sudden appearance of Viper Lord, Vyzrath."

"Good then, I will take it." Azzy pushed the scroll forward.

The receptionist looked hesitant and said in worry, "The quest is really not worth it. Trust me."

Azzy calmly replied, "Don't worry. I have my own tricks up my sleeve. I'll be fine."

"Alright." She stamped the guild's seal on it, Azzy put it inside his pockets, and turned around to leave. After walking away a couple of steps, he turned to her and asked, "Let's say if I bring back this Vyzrath's carcass, your guild will handsomely pay for it, right?"

"Umm… No? Cuz you are not eligible to receive the rewards for the S-rank Quest," replied the Nephilim, this time taking Azzy by surprise. He couldn't help but wonder whether the rules were indeed too strict here.

But then, she gave him relief by adding, "However, if the parts of the Viper Lord turn out to be valuable, the guild will pay an appropriate price for them."

"Understood."

Azzy left the building.

As the whispers once again passed around among the idle adventurers, the Reaper's voice echoed in his head, "And what happened to maintaining low key profile, Azrael?"

To which Azzy responded with a question, "What do you think about moonlighting?"

"Ah, I see… You have matured indeed." The Reaper commented in realization. Looking into the immediate future for a bit, he mumbled to himself, "But it seems fate has different plans for you."

Azzy met with Rynmere, who was patiently waiting outside on the road, trying his best to ignore the insulting glances and stares he was getting from the passersby.

"My Lord… what's our next destination?" Rynmere couldn't wait to fight, displaying his worth to his master.

Azzy, however, replied, "We are going to the next guild."

"Huh? Another guild?" Rynmere looked confused and asked, "Did My Lord not like this guild? I heard that this is the top guild of the city."

Azzy responded with a chuckle, "Nope. Registered and got the quest. But I'm not interested in wasting my time here. Since I don't plan on staying here for long anyway, this time, I want you to return to the hotel and wait for me."

Dropping him off at the hotel on the way, Azzy continued to travel in the cab to reach another top guild, most importantly, a rival guild named Everlasting.

However, he had a blank mask on his face this time. His soul realm was also suppressed to a 7-star rank.

The receptionist over there was an experienced one. She dealt with him professionally on the registration. But the same system exists here, too.

After he filled up the form, using the fake name Gary, which he used when he went undercover as a teacher back then, the crystal ball was placed before him. The receptionist asked him to place it and pour his soul energy.

This time, he didn't reject. Instead, he poured his soul energy into it.

The crystal ball chimed, rapidly changing colors from white to red, and went on until black before it brightly glowed and burst into pieces within a few seconds, turning the entire guild hall into silence.

The guild manager hurriedly rushed down to meet him, inviting him to his room personally.

Azzy went with him amidst curious gazes from the adventurers and sat down. The tea was served to him.

Taking a sip, the guild manager put forth a wide variety of benefits to him for joining his guild. However, Azzy rejected all of them.

As the manager asked him what he wanted, Azzy looked at him through the eyes of the mask and replied with a mere three words, "The highest-ranked quests."
