You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel

Lotte rested his chin on his hand, looking at the numbers on the panel.

"This should be a mage's panel, right? Other mages should look like this too, right?"

……

The next morning, Lott couldn't wait to put on his shoes and go out.

Mapletown is lovely in the morning; the maple leaves all seem to be pink.

He walked towards the guild gate, preparing to register for the mage profession.

Unlike usual, the hall was packed with adventurers today, making it seem chaotic.

A dozen or so fully equipped adventurers marched out of the gate, leaving Lotte bewildered as to what had happened.

Lotte righted the tables and chairs they had bumped into and looked at the reception desk. "Miss Yar, what happened?"

Yar wore a beautiful white dress today. "The number of monsters in Fengen Town has suddenly increased recently. It turns out that a mist bear spirit has somehow wandered into the Fengen Great Forest and has injured quite a few people these days."

"They went to carry out a punitive expedition?"

"Hmm. This time it's a mission commission directly funded by the Adventurers' Guild, and it's worth two gold coins! If you have a class, you might be able to go too."

"I'm here to register my occupation."

"Oh?" Yar glanced at Lot with interest, then picked up an adventurer's registration book. "What's your profession?"

"Master."

Yar raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, but didn't say much: "Master Lotte, then I'll trouble you to test it."

Yar bent down and pulled out the crystal ball from the bottom of the cabinet, placing it on a soft cushion. "This was sent by the Mage Association. According to the rules, I can only register you as a mage if it lights up."

Lotte placed his hand on it, and after a moment, the crystal ball slowly lit up with a blue light.

Yar whispered, "She really is a mage..."

As she looked down to register, she asked, "Do you know any magic?"

"Uh...no."

"Is it alright if I register you as a novice monk?"

As the most basic profession, the mage is also divided into apprentice, beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.

"no problem."

Yar handed the Adventurer's Handbook to Lotte. "Lord Lotte, congratulations on being able to accept commissions. Also, there's a registration fee of two silver coins."

Lott panicked; he only had two silver coins on him. "So expensive! How can it be so expensive! Aren't they usually two copper coins?!"

"You think the title 'Master' is just for show? Only mages accept two silver coins."

Lotte clutched the two silver coins reluctantly, but Yar snatched them from his hand.

Lotte went bankrupt simply by registering!

Not to mention he also needs to buy swords, staves, houses, scrolls, beast girls, and props and potions.

I've heard that the mage pays for everything with gold coins, but Lott doesn't even have a single copper coin.

Fortunately, once you have a profession, you can accept mission requests.

Lotte walked to the quest log, looked left and right, and then peeled off a quest to hunt Bloodfleece Beasts.

[Quest: A Blood-Stained Beast Hide without any sword or knife wounds; Reward: 20 Silver Coins]

Lott took the commission, filled out his information, and walked to the counter. "Miss Yar, I'll take this one."

“Let me see.” Yar took the information and glanced at it, then looked at Lot. “Mr. Lot, after an adventurer accepts a quest, the guild will help the adventurer assess the difficulty of the quest. It’s generally categorized as: Easy, Normal, Hard, Dangerous, and…”

Yar stamped a large seal on Lot's file:

【turn down】

"Mr. Lott, you're just an apprentice mage who doesn't know any magic, and you want to take down the Bloodfly Beast alone?"

"I am very skilled in swordsmanship, having studied under the princess. Don't underestimate mages, Miss Yar."

"Alright, alright." Yar returned the information to Lot. "Please find a reliable teammate, otherwise we'll have to give up on this mission."

"Can I choose another request?"

“Mages don’t go solo,” Yar said with a squinty smile to Lot. “Unless you choose a slime, I won’t approve it.”

"You can actually do that?"

"Don't underestimate the receptionist, Mr. Lott."

Lotte now really wants to take Yar into the forest so she can see his strength for herself.

Unfortunately, this is not realistic.

Lotte can only find someone to team up with and complete the mission to change Yar's stereotype of him.

Yar looked past Lot's shoulder and behind him. "Look, the people who are good to team up with have arrived. You can go find them."

Lotte turned around and saw the young lady who had appeared at [Three Thousand Gold Coins] that night. She and her uncle Bald walked through the door together.

Today, Chloris tied her hair into two braids with two blue hairbands, giving her a more youthful look.

Behind the counter, Yar said to them, "Lord Lott is looking for a team. Would you like to consider taking him along? He's a mage now, you know."

Chloris's stride froze in mid-air, her gaze instantly falling on Lotte.

"Are you kidding me? Mr. Lott has become a mage?"

"I'm not kidding."

The ankle boots thumped on the floor as Miss Chloris walked to Lotte's side, curtsied with her hands lifting the hem of her skirt.

Lotte looked to Yar for help, unsure how to return such aristocratic courtesy.

Fortunately, Chloris didn't care about any of that: "Mr. Lott, I really want to know how you did it."

Baldr walked over, grabbed Chloris's shoulder, and whispered, "Chloris, it's impolite to pry into other people's privacy."

"But Uncle..."

Lott could never do that!

He was asking me about monks last week, and this week it's all settled?

how can that be!

Even if he found the meditation magic scroll that night, it would still take at least a few months to learn meditation, right?

Either he's some noble young master who came to Maple's Town to experience life, or...

Chloris looked at Lotte, and an idea slowly surfaced in her mind:

Either Lotte is a magical genius!

He grasped the essence of meditation on his own and mastered it within a week, becoming a mage.

When Chloris came to her senses, Baldr and Lotte were already chatting and laughing.

"Uncle, what are you talking about?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I just reached a team agreement with Mr. Lott."

Chloris glanced at the contract Baldr handed her, then at Baldr himself. "Uncle, we clearly agreed to go mushroom picking in the forest together..."

"Sorry, sorry, how about we do it another day?"

Bald whispered in Chloris's ear, "Uncle was just testing Lott for you. He's either crazy or a genius to become a mage in Maple Town. If he's a genius, then it's perfect for you to team up."

Chloris forced a smile, her body stiff as she watched Lotte and Bald leave the Adventurers' Guild.

A light, airy voice drifted from inside the room: "Ah~ Miss Chloris got dumped. You were here first, but your Uncle Bald teamed up with someone much stronger. You should have quit the team in a huff~"

"Miss Yar!"

Lotte accompanied Baldr to retrieve the weapons and armor.

These days, Bald has been in contact with Lot. If Lot is looking for someone to form a team, Bald is his best choice.

After getting ready, the two did not delay and went straight into the forest.

Chapter 12 That's not how mages fight!

Today, the Maple Forest has changed.
