In the absence of intelligence, trying to guess what the other party is thinking is just asking for trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, understood.\" The middle-aged man let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would like to post a commission; I need to go to the front desk...\" Tang Zheng suddenly spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man said, \"For such a small matter, I can handle it for you directly, my lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a magic caster in the Adventurer's Guild who possesses appraisal abilities and can use second-tier magic, although his talent is limited, his status is not low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A minor commission like this should be left to his subordinates to handle; he shouldn't need to manage it personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he is so attentive this time, besides having just completed a large transaction worth 720 gold coins, is that there are some matters he needs to confirm privately with the black-haired youth before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The commission is to find a magic caster who has mastered 'Read Magic'.\" Tang Zheng said softly, \"I mean, it would be best if it could be done as soon as possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before heading to the Baharuth Empire, he has many things to prepare; besides the issue of money, the most urgent thing to solve is the problem of illiteracy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as one is in human society, being unable to read text will always lead to many troubles. The simplest way to solve this problem is to learn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention whether the scripts of the various human nations are identical, the mere thought of learning a writing system he has never been exposed to is already a headache for Tang Zheng, who was a poor student in his past life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the time required for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Read Magic\" can analyze various scripts and translate them into meanings the user can understand. Since such a convenient spell exists, there is naturally no need to waste time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or one could also acquire a \"Scholar\" class, which also has similar skills in this regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'Read Magic'?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is a rather rare spell.\" A thoughtful expression appeared on the middle-aged man's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This type of magic is mostly used for research on some countries that perished over a hundred years ago.

If you can wait, I do know of one person in the royal capital.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, inviting them over would take at least two months, and the reward would have to be over 50 gold coins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zheng shook his head: \"Money is not the problem, but the time is too long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cannot stay in E-Rantel for that long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calculating based on the current timeline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The future Imperial Four Knights member, \"Heavy Explosion\" Nimble Arc Dale Anoch, has not yet been recruited by the Bloody Emperor to join the ranks of the Four Knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other party should have just been kicked out of their family not long ago and is currently wandering somewhere, looking for a way to lift the curse that is a side effect of the \"Cursed Knight\" class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after Tang Zheng arrives at the Baharuth Empire, it will take some effort to find Nimble Arc Dale Anoch, so he certainly won't waste a large amount of time in E-Rantel. Seeing Tang Zheng shake his head and refuse without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man leaned back slightly, a smile appearing on his face: \"There is also someone in E-Rantel who has mastered this spell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, this piece of information is worth ten gold coins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clatter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zheng reached into the money pouch on the table with an expressionless face, grabbed ten gold coins from the pouch, and placed them in front of the middle-aged man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Vice-Guildmaster of the Magic Caster's Guild, Master Belorue Vanov Grigori Burtkin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the middle-aged man said this, his face carried a hint of respect:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That person has mastered 'Read Magic', but they rarely appear in public.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although they are the Vice-Guildmaster of the Magic Caster's Guild, it is more of a nominal title; even our Guildmaster finds it difficult to meet them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, the middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meaning could not be clearer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>=9+Book_Bar\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corner of Tang Zheng's mouth twitched imperceptibly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guildmaster of the E-Rantel Magic Caster's Guild is named Theo Rakshir, and this is the first time he has heard of this Vice-Guildmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since even the Adventurer's Guildmaster cannot meet them, Tang Zheng does not believe he has the ability to do so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten gold coins were spent on information that looked useful but was actually completely useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since that is the case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems he can only think of other ways. He wonders if there are any magical items that can translate text?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Zheng was just about to stand up and turn to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a moment, my lord.\" The middle-aged man hurriedly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These two bone chains of the Evil Spirit Dog must have been obtained by you from hunting in the Great Forest of Tob, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder if you could tell me about the current situation inside the Great Forest of Tob?
