Chapter 314 Ch 317 Thousand Faces
After learning all those information about Jakery, Rein thanked the headmaster and left his office. The head master was a bit curious about why Rein wanted to know these information but he did not worry too much about it as he was sure that Rein was not planning anything nefarious.
So he just chalk it up to curiousity of the young. As Jakery was a powerful fifth rank mage, the head master thought that Rein might be trying to learn more about him to prepare himself for the fifth rank. He had no idea that Rein was already a fifth rank mage.
...
After leaving the head master's office, Rein went to meet with his girls. They were waiting for him in the mission hall of the academy and were choosing a few more missions. Rein had already chosen a few missions for them but at the same time he had also asked them if they had a particular mission in mind that they would like to complete. That was the reason why currently both of the ladies were going over all the available mission to see if anything interested them or not.

After seeing that Rein was done with his work, they increased their speed and soon found one request each that they found to be interesting. Then they showed those requests to Rein. After checking the requests out, Rein saw no problems associated with them so he also registered those two requests for his team. Now in this outing, Rein and his team needed to complete a total of 9 requests.
...
After leaving the academy, Rein did not immediately left the capital. Instead, he went to a large supermarket run by a powerful organisation. This organisation named "Thousand Faces" was extremely powerful and did business in many nations. According to some rumours that Rein had heard, behind this organisation, there was a rank 8 sage powerhouse. If that was really the case, then this organisation might be the strongest in the magic Kingdom of Gilthar.
The Thousand Faces sold almost everything that one could think of. If someone had enough money, they could get their hands on even the most fantastical and mythological item that they could think of. But Rein was not here to buy any items and instead he was here to buy some information.
Collecting information was another speciality for the Thousand Faces. Any nation where they opened their branch, they would start to gather information from all corners of thar nation. For that reason, many nobles who had some skeletons in their closet and royals of that nation hated the Thousand Faces organisation with a passion. But with their formidable background, no one was willing to openly antagonise them.
...
After entering the build of the Thousand Faces, Rein showed a golden card to one of the clerks working there. As soon as the clerk saw the card, he became extremely respectful and Rein was immediately escorted to one of the inner reception rooms.
The golden card that Rein had used was a special card that was given to him for being a valuable customer of the Thousand Faces. Rein had bought a lot of items from them including the protection items that he had given to his two girls. And as Rein also had the same ability as the Hero of the past, even a super powerful organisation like the Thousand Faces was also respectful toward him. So to show their goodwill, they had gifted Rein a true VIP card of the highest order.
Rein and his girls needed to wait for less than five minutes and one of the higher ups of the organisation came to meet with them. He was a well dressed middle aged man with a fit body. Seeing him with his eye of Truth Rein was able to find that this man was actually a rank 5 mage, even though he was disguising himself as a rank 4.
Rein greeted the man cordially and soon the business talk started. Rein did not just asked for information about Jakery as that would be too suspicious and using that the Thousand Faces might find some secrets of Rein. So Rein asked about information of a total of 13 rank 5 mages who were not that famous. This way he would not create any suspicion about his intentions.
As soon as Rein made his request, he was immediately given the information about all 13 of the rank 5 mages. As expected of one of the strongest organisations of the world, the information they gave Rein was very detailed and thorough.
Rein was extremely impressed by it and thanked the high ranking official of the organisation. Then he paid the whole amount immediately. The Thousand Faces had a system where VIPs could pay later but this system was extremely dangerous. If used unwisely, even powerful people could fall into their trap and would became greatly indebted to the organisation.
For that reason, Rein always paid the Thousand Faces in full after any transaction. He was not willing to take any risks with them. So even though the information about rank 5 mages was not cheap, Rein did not take any risks and paid them in full immediately.
...
After leaving the building of the Thousand Faces organisation, Rein finally left the capital. As they all went out, Lopas whispered in Rein ears that she was feeling extreme threat from the high ranking official that they met. Rein was happy that Lopas' intuition was so strong, so he immediately praised her and told her the truth that the official whom they just met was actually a rank 5 mage himself. So it was natural that a rank 4 mage like Lopas would feel danger from him.
Actually Lopas was amazing for being able to sense the true power of a rank 5 mage when he was trying to actively hide it. So he praised her for this and Lopas became happy. He also did not forget to praise Luna as she was the one who had found all the names of the other rank 5 mages who were not that famous.
So with both of his girls now happy, Rein was finally ready to start tackling the missions. For the first mission they needed to go to a village called Narhido. Some kind of weird monsters had appeared in the village and were threatening the people living there. Rein and his girls needed to eliminate them.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Narhido village was located quite close to a city called Xaliza. That city was their next destination where they had three missions to complete and that city was also the place where Jakery was born. So Rein was going to start his investigation about his past there while completing the missions they had in that city.
Only after finishing the missions there, they would go to the other different cities of that reason for the remaining missions. Then the location of the last and final mission was actually in the capital, so to complete it they all were going to return there.
So it looked like that the upcoming days were definitely going to be extremely tiring for everyone.
