Ch. 115 - Item Presentation (7)

Manwol’s Mutation Mask.

The ‘world peace’ might sound somewhat cheesy and vague, but they operated in secrecy with a clear goal, and were said to be at least 10 years ahead with their unique magical technology.

Manwol Tower had produced countless magical items and inventions, and the Mutation Mask was one of them.

Its duration was short, about 3 hours, but it was a mask that could actually change the shape of one's face.

Face-altering magic was quite common, but it was easily detected by magical sensors and was entirely ineffective against mages who had reached a certain level.

However, this Mutation Mask could transform the facial skin itself, making it almost impossible to be discovered.

It was truly a perfect tool for disguising one's identity.

Today, when infiltrating the Golden Platform, Kaen used the Mutation Mask once again.

Cleaner Kim Clean.

Being a cleaner was quite convenient for him; it was a role he frequently utilized.

He could easily understand the building's interior structure, and no matter where he was, he didn't raise suspicion.

"Hey, you! Why is the cleaner making noise here?"

Kaen slowly turned around, and saw a man approaching while shouting at him.

The man had a protruding belly, and was assigned to manage the Alchemy Hall.

He flinched for a moment at Kaen’s stern gaze, but his anger only grew, and he shouted even louder.

"You brat has some nerve to stare at me! Hurry up and go clean in the corner! Today, there are many high-ranking individuals here, so don't stand out!"

Kaen remained silent.

"What, you're really going to ignore me like this? You're in big trouble, pal!"

The staff member was about to erupt in anger at Kaen when someone intervened.

"Enough, please stop."

"What's with you again!"

The staff member was already feeling annoyed at being ignored by the cleaner, but when a boy intervened, he felt even more angry and shouted.

Though, he soon regretted it.

"... Bae, Student Baek Yu-Seol?"

"Yes. You know me. Wo, just leave."

"Huh? Well, um..."

The staff member who worked in the Alchemy Hall couldn't fail to recognize Alterisha’s partner, Baek Yu-Seol, so he widened his eyes.

"That... cleaner was making a fuss in front of important guests because of a minor issue..."

"Where's your professionalism? From my perspective, you're no better. If you keep blabbering, you might get on my nerves, so leave quickly."

"Uh, yes, of course."

The staff member hastily nodded, then turned and rushed away.

"Sigh..."

Baek Yu-Seol glanced at Kaen briefly. He wasn't trying to help him; he had spared the staff member's life.

"Uh, well... cheer up."

He didn't want to pretend to know more, so Baek Yu-Seol quickly turned and was about to leave when Kaen spoke up.

"Baek Yu-Seol. Can we talk for a moment?"
