The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 486 The Trial of Alamir

“Mr. Alamir, this morning a gentleman asked me to give you this.”

Jenny and Lina arrived to keep their appointment from the previous day. When they saw the old elf under the oak tree, Jenny ran over, lifted her petticoat, took a letter from her bag, and handed it to him.

Alamir took it with a puzzled look: "Who is it?"

“I don’t know! That person is hidden in a dark cloak, so I can’t see their face,” Jenny said.

Although she recognized the voice as belonging to a young lady, the promise of a silver coin and her professional conduct kept her silent.

Before Alamir could ask any more questions, Jenny grabbed Lina and ran into the hotel.

They have a big business deal to make today!
Alamir sat under the tree and opened the letter wrapped in the black envelope.

"Mr. Alamir, are you facing some kind of difficult choice?"
On behalf of the Dawn Society, I invite you to join us. After passing the membership trial, the Society's internal resources will be open to you.

Here is an excerpt from the academy's internal list of magical resources: {Item Card - Space Ring}, {Item Card - Space Tent}, {Item Card - Space Planting Pot Card}...

Alamir looked at it casually until she saw something on the list of magical resources, at which point she sat up straight.

A planting pot that can be shrunk to the size of a card, and the plants inside can maintain their current state—isn't that exactly what he needs right now?
With it, he can take Yar back to the Elf Forest.

The Fairy Forest has many plants, and no one would harm the trees at will.

Yar will be safe there, and he'll have many friends. He'll never be lonely again.

What's the background of this Dawn Society? They actually possess such a spatial treasure that can carry life on a person! Even the ancient Elven race doesn't have one!

When he saw the invitation saying that all magical resources could be purchased with gem coins exchanged for magical energy, Alamir's first reaction was: "This can't be real!"

Such a precious treasure is so rare that even one would be fought over; how could it possibly be exchanged for with magical energy!
"It's probably just someone's prank!"

After having this thought, Alamir was immediately disappointed; he wished it were true.

He would do everything in his power to get his hands on anything that existed in Lance City.

Even though he already thought it was a prank, Alamir couldn't help but feel a little tempted when he saw the last part of the letter, which read, "If you are willing to accept the trial and become a member of the Dawn Society, and promise not to reveal anything about the Dawn Society whether you succeed or not, sign your name here."

What if it's true?

He examined it carefully and found that apart from keeping the matter of the Dawn Society a secret, there were no harsh terms in the letter. Even if it was a demon's contract, the words on it would not have any negative impact on him.

"Why don't we sign it and see?" Alamir really wanted to leave with Yar.

The thing he regretted most in his life was that when he left the Elf Forest, he took an oak seed with him and planted it outside his home where he was staying.

He watched it gradually develop its spirituality, and his bond with it grew deeper and deeper.

As time went by, the trees in the wilderness became trees in the city. He had prepared himself to live out his life guarding them, but then something happened in the Elf Forest.

In the Forest of Elves, he also has many relatives and friends.

He couldn't give up the whole forest for a single tree like Aramir. Now that there was a possibility of having the best of both worlds, even if it was likely a prank, Aramir couldn't bear to give it up.

He took the invitation back into the house, found a pen, and wrote his name in the blank space on the invitation.

He sensed something different from the moment he put pen to paper, as if the power of a contract was at work, penning into the invitation as he wrote.

When he finished writing his extremely long elf name, the Dawn Academy invitation he had drawn turned into a black card.

The card's name, "Dawn Academy Trial Card," is written on it, along with a lot of text information.

[Trial Participant: Alamir]

[Trial Task 1: Read "Dawn Society Resource List", "Dawn Society Mission", and "Dawn Society Confidentiality Regulations", and complete the exam to become a formal trial participant of the Dawn Society.]

[Reward: Excellent exam results will grant you temporary redemption rights for one {Temporary Item Card - Space Planting Pot #9 (3 days)}]

[Trial Task Two: Find a suitable spellcaster, deliver an {Dawn Society Invitation}, and the invitation is considered successful if the recipient accepts it.]

[Reward: For each spellcaster successfully invited, you will receive a temporary exchange right for a {Temporary Item Card - Space 9 Planting Pot (9 days)}. Successfully inviting ten spellcasters within three months will allow you to pass the trial ahead of schedule, become a full member of the academy, and gain a permanent exchange right for a {Item Card - Space 9 Planting Pot}.]

As soon as Alamir felt the power of the contract, hope was rekindled.

But he never imagined that he would be able to obtain the space planting pot mentioned in the invitation so quickly.

He hasn't even passed the trial yet!

Such a precious treasure can be obtained simply by reading a few books and taking an exam.

Even if it can only be used for 3 days, it's still a rare treat.

But what is an exam?
In the world of elves, there is no such thing as an exam.

Alamir poked the word "exam," and a small box appeared on the card, explaining the meaning of "exam."

"So it's a way to assess learning outcomes!"

So, does that mean he really only needs to read these few books to exchange his natural power for a temporary item card - Space Planting Pot No. 9 that can be used for 3 days in the Trial Shop?
Alamir has lived for seven hundred years and has never encountered such a good thing!
What exactly is the Dawn Society, and why is it so generous?
It seems that the Dawn Society is entirely a welfare organization!

Alamir was filled with curiosity and gratitude towards the Dawn Society.

The materials required to be read in the first trial mission happened to be about the Dawn Society, so he immediately began reading them without hesitation.

When Moran, Lilith, Vasita, and Sylph came downstairs, they could only see the top of Alamir's head from outside the bar.

He was engrossed in reading at his desk and didn't even look up when he heard the sound.

“Mr. Alamir, we’re going out to look at houses. Once we find one, we’ll move out. I’m sorry…” Sylph said, her voice low.

At this time, she was still that young apprentice who wanted to buy a hotel but was not understood by her mentor and classmates.

"It's alright! I hope you find a good place to rent soon!" Alamir said, looking up and speaking quickly.
