I Am Doing Daily Tasks in the Wizarding World

Chapter 58

Emerging from his room, Lynn learned about the significant events of the previous night while having a meal in the dining hall. The Alchemy Laboratorys soundproofing was indeed formidable, leaving Lynn somewhat regretful for missing out on so many experimental materials last night.

If only he had been present, Lynn mused, he could have killed a couple of sirens as materials. What a missed opportunity.

Lynn felt a bit greedy. Was it merely the gills on their faces that allowed them to thrive underwater, or were there other factors at play?

Suddenly, an announcement echoed through the ship, carried by a hovering Bahov Elf with a trumpet-like device. Lord Harin is seeking an assistant for his laboratory. Those interested can register with Captain Ghost. Requirements include a background in mutation studies, boldness, and meticulousness in keeping the laboratory tidy. Registration is open only for today.

Excitement buzzed among the wizard apprentices dining in the hall. Lynn overheard their conversations.

I knew something good would happen during this voyage.

Its just strangewere almost at our destination, and now Lord Harin decides to recruit an assistant.

Perhaps it has to do with the numerous corpses Lord Harin obtained yesterday.

With so many siren corpses, who knows how many experiments can be conducted.

Becoming an official wizards assistant was a coveted dream for many wizard apprentices, and a swarm of them rushed towards Captain Ghost to register.

Lynn, keeping his head low, calmly finished his meal before getting up. The registration deadline was today, and whether he registered now or a bit later made little difference. Besides, with the multitude of people registering, queues would form, and patience was required.

Arriving at the captains quarters, Lynn intended to find Captain Ghost, only to discover a gathering of people outside the cabin. The narrow corridor leading to the captains quarters was packed with a dense crowd, making it nearly impassable.

After waiting for a while, Lynn noticed that the people ahead werent moving. Peering ahead, Lynn observed several individuals blocking the entrance to the captains quarters, showing no intention of entering.

Merely standing at the entrance, blocking the way.

Lynn quickly understood the intention of these peopleby obstructing the registration area, no one else could sign up. If no one registered, then only those few individuals would be competing for the position.

Lynn had no intention of giving way. Since it was a fair competition, he was determined to vie for the spot.

Participating in the experiments of an official wizard daily meant getting a chance to tidy up the laboratory! With so much time spent on the ship, Lynn couldnt afford to waste it.

Give way. Lynn said, moving toward the captains quarters.

People on either side squeezed in the corridor, but Lynn extended his hands and pushed those blocking the way.

The people along the path felt a tremendous force pushing them, directly against the edges of the corridor.

Someone, observing Lynns physique, couldnt help but curse in a low voice, Is this guy a half-orc? His strength is incredible.

So rude, no trace of noble etiquette at all.

This guy doesnt seem to be a noble. According to those who boarded at Bangor Port, he seems to be just a commoner.

A commoner?

Hey, kid, are you sure you want to participate? Think it over before making a decision, this isnt something someone of your status should be involved in, a wizard apprentice sneered from behind.

Lynn turned around, looking puzzled. Isnt Lord Wizard Harin recruiting people? He didnt specify any restrictions. Why cant I go in?

Hahaha, none of us dares to sign up. Whats your identity? Just a commoner wizard wanting to eat swan meat. How audacious, someone scoffed with disdain.

Ignoring the comments, Lynn turned and entered Captain Ghosts room.

Seeing Lynn act so arrogantly, a wizard apprentice took out his magic staff from his robe and aimed it at Lynn.

However, Lynns movements were faster than the apprentices incantation. He swiftly grabbed the magic staff and delivered an elbow strike to the apprentices nose.

Ouch.

The guy holding the magic staff heard a crisp sound from his nose, and blood gushed out, prompting him to crouch down, covering his nose.

Lynn looked at the magic staff in his hand and casually stowed it in his pocket.

Dont point magic staff at me, Lynn said coldly. If it werent for ship rules prohibiting murder on board, with just this small movement, Lynn could have easily broken the guys neck.

Lynns gaze was indifferent, his spellcasting was swift within three steps, and his punches accurate and quick within three steps.

His overall physical fitness, six times that of an average person, made it easy for him to break a wizard apprentices neck within three steps, even without formal combat training.

These wizard apprentices hadnt expected Lynn to actually dare to act alone against so many of them. They were momentarily stunned, hesitating to make a move.

Looking at each other in disbelief, they watched Lynn enter Captain Ghosts room.

The captains room wasnt spacious, with an oil painting portrait hanging on the wall.

Captain Ghost sat by the window, gazing out at the ocean, looking somewhat lonely.

Lynn spoke up, Im here to register.

This is a test from Lord Harin, Captain Ghost said, taking out a parchment scroll from the drawer and placing it on the table, next to a pen with a feather attached.

Lynn spread out the parchment scroll on the table. Illuminated by the oil lamp on the table, he scanned the contents of the parchment scroll.

The difficulty of the questions was even simpler than Lynn had anticipated. He quickly answered all the questions on the parchment.

Captain Ghost remarked, Youre quite fast in answering.

Then, holding the answers, Captain Ghost stood up and disappeared on the spot.

Ill go inform Lord Wizard Harin for you.

His form transformed into a ghost, passing through the wall.

In no time, Captain Ghost returned to the room from the wall.

Lord Harin said you passed the assessment. Tomorrow morning, go to room 101 to find Lord Harin, Captain Ghost said.

Lynn thanked Captain Ghost and felt no great surprise. The content on the parchment wasnt difficult.

Exiting the room, Lynn noticed many wizard apprentices outside.

Who allowed you to answer the questions just now? You better pray you didnt passotherwise, your days on this ship will be difficult, a wizard apprentice blocked Lynns way.

Lynn thought these noble wizard apprentices might have something wrong with their brains. Perhaps growing up in a life of flattery and sycophancy had cultivated this arrogant attitude in them. If all wizard apprentices were like this, Lynn seriously questioned how these wizards managed to defeat gods.

If youre not convinced, go talk to Lord Wizard Harin yourself, Lynn said, too lazy to argue with these fools.

Having said that, Lynn pushed through the crowd, leaving the corridor and returning to his room.

Back in the room, Lynn contemplated the questions from earlier.

Whether it was his illusion or not, he felt a sense of familiarity with the questions Wizard Harin presented, as if he had seen them somewhere.

After pondering for a moment, Lynn took out a notebook from his ring. Looking at the contents, he suddenly knew why it felt familiar.

Many of the topics used for assessment on the parchment were mentioned in the notebook.

No wonder he found the content of the parchment so simple and strangely familiar.

This made Lynn more suspicious of Wizard Harins identity. He was increasingly convinced that this Wizard Harin was acquainted with his teacher, Angley.

Before, his teacher could know the specific arrival time of this ship at Bangor Port, perhaps related to this Wizard Harin.

However, since his teacher hadnt mentioned it, Lynn wouldnt rashly establish a connection with this Wizard Harin. If he mistakenly got involved with the wrong person, it could be troublesome.

The next day, Lynn went directly to Wizard Harins room.

Outside Wizard Harins door, Lynn saw several figures standing there.

As Lynn approached, the gazes of these individuals fell upon him.

It seems youve secured the position of Lord Harins assistant this time, the red-haired wizard on the far left remarked to Lynn. His face bore a somewhat gloomy smile, but he extended his right hand, saying, Im Bhim Buxton. You can call me Bhim. It looks like you have a rich understanding of mutation studies. I hope we can exchange knowledge sometime.

Not one to refuse an outstretched hand and a friendly face, Lynn shook hands with Bhim in response.

Apart from Bhim, there were several other wizards nearby. Lynn also spotted Anousheh among them.

Being able to stand together with Anousheh, seemingly on equal status, Lynn could roughly guess the identities of these people.

Initially expecting trouble, Lynn soon realized that these people had merely come to introduce themselves. It seemed they were here just to see who had secured the position of Wizard Harins assistant.

It seems our Erdolu Kingdom is about to produce a formidable wizard. We might have a chance to collaborate, Anousheh said to Lynn.

Sure, Im open to collaboration if the opportunity arises, Lynn replied, thinking about something and nodding in agreement to Anousheh with a smile.

Afterward, Lynn knocked on the door and, upon receiving permission, entered Wizard Harins room.

This room seemed to have undergone some kind of spatial magic, as the space inside was several times larger than Lynns own room.

In this expansive room, a brilliant array drawn with blue blood adorned the blank floor.

The lifeless bodies of sirens were arranged in various poses on the ground, forming a door¹.

1. TL/N: The corpses were arranged in the Chinese character ( mn = door ).
