My Cell Prison

Chapter 54: Mr. Black and White's Trust

The position and identity have been confessed.

Mr. Black and White only cares about Han Dong's 'stance'.

He also had a general glimpse of Han Dong's nature through astrology, and knew that he was on the side of humans... Therefore, he would not ask any more questions about how Han Dong came to be, and would even help him conceal his identity to a certain extent.

However, Han Dong still had reservations.

When talking about wanting to learn the 'summoning' ability, he did not put Chen Li out.

Because there was an important reason here, which was that Chen Li came from [Destiny Space], Mr. Black and White might be able to observe Chen Li's origins through astrology.

It was not easy to expose before Han Dong had figured out the root of the Fate Space.

"You want to learn summoning class abilities?"

"Well... "Han Dong had already thought of something to say, "The stitches I saw in the test before felt like this 'dead body manipulation' was pretty good.

A body like mine is supported by a 'ghoul arm', but it's still not very good overall.

If I had a summoned creature to assist from the side, it could greatly compensate for my shortcomings."

Mr. Black and White said, "The [Control Department] is more proficient at summoning and mastering creatures, ethereal spirits, and ghosts.

Our Mystery Department is greatly inferior to them in this regard.

Two weeks isn't a long time, so if you want to learn, you must first build a good foundation about 'plague' before coming to me to learn the 'summoning' means.

If you get nothing accomplished in two weeks due to distractions, you will die in the next 'Destiny Space'.

The Fate Space that you participate in as a trainee knight is far more difficult than a novice... you understand, right?"

"Got it."

Mr. Black and White continued, "There's something about your 'ghoul arm' that, which can be explained to outsiders in four words - the plague variant - no one will look into it. Because we, in the Department of Mysticism, are able to do a perfect stitching of a ghoul arm to a living thing."

"Alright."

"When you know enough about the mysticism to have the knowledge and ability to fully explain the relevant abilities you possess... you can stop worrying about 'exposure' and proclaim your name to the Holy City.

Keeping a low profile can save you trouble, while fame, reputation, and these things can bring you unexpected benefits and conveniences as well.

Weigh the pros and cons of both for yourself.

Keep your own position intact no matter what.

Give all you have for the sake of human freedom."

"All right! Thank you, Mr. Black, and White."

Thanks to Mr. Black and White's help, the probability of Han Dong's identity being exposed was negligible, he just needed to pay more attention to himself.

"As long as you complete Pasha's daily request for you, you can come to the [Stargazing Room] to see me at any time, all day long."

"Hmm... By the way, Mr. Black and White... how do I get to Miss Pasha's office?"

As Han Dong's question was asked, a bizarre scene occurred.

A black raven feather spat out from the black mask's mouth.

The raven feather that floated in the air actually directly evolved into a black raven that rested on Han Dong's shoulder area.

"It will take you there... For a short time, you need to familiarize yourself with the detailed structure of the [Dark Moon Tower], so don't waste too much time on it."

"Okay."

The conversation ended here.

The two-week time limit had been set, and Han Dong must conserve every share of every second and have detailed planning for the rest of the time.

After Han Dong's departure.

The room changed back to the appearance of cosmic space.

As Mr. Black and White got up and walked towards the telescope, he casually touched a white mask and looked at it in contrast to the black mask he wore.

At that moment, the lips of the white mask actually moved on their own, emitting an ethereal sound.

"Crow... you're a bit of an anomaly today.

All along, you've been uninterested in these trainee knights, and even the stitching genius who got 99 points two years ago, you've only asked for some information from the side.

Why are you so interested in this kid today?"

Black Mask said.

"A trainee knight who can't even see through your 'astrology', I'll naturally bet on it.

If he can really adapt to everything within two weeks, learn basic plague techniques, and even learn a bit of introductory summoning from me.

Once he can successfully cross the true [Destiny Space], he can be cultivated with all our might."

White Mask said in surprise, "Just because I can't see through this trainee knight's fate?"

"That's right...since you can't see through it, it means that his destiny may not belong to our world, and it's necessary to take a chance on it. It's just a matter of consuming a bit of supplies.

As long as it's clear that he's on the side of humanity, we have nothing to lose."

"Who knows what the future holds?"

Thus, the conversation ended.

Whenever Mr. Black and White changes his mask his entire demeanor and walking posture changes then he puts on the white mask, and walks slowly to the astronomical telescope, and continues to look at the universe and stars.

...........

Han Dong, who took the elevator down, revealed a rare smile.

The biggest stone hanging in his heart was finally put down.

In this world full of magic and supernatural powers, there were countless capable people, Han Dong could hide it once, but not necessarily a second time.

Now that the top administrator in the Department of Mysteries had agreed with Han Dong's existence, the road ahead would be much easier.

"Two weeks, Destiny Space has descended once again."

The first thing that Han Dong thought of was the trainee Knight-Cass who had temporarily teamed up with him a few days ago to complete the ghoul incident together.

After receiving the bounty, Cass had clearly stated that he wanted to continue teaming up with Han Dong, including the subsequent bounty mission, as well as the Destiny Space.

"I can contact Cass in advance, continue to use the pseudonym 'Andeva', and team up with him by pretending to be a trainee knight who has already come to the Mysticism Academy for a year.

The Crusader who has already gained 3 Fate Points should know more."

Guided by the raven.

The elevator descended to the first floor of the tower.

Followed by the need to switch to another special elevator...the walls of which were stained with a slimy bacterial fluid.

"Ms. Pasha's office is not in the tower? Mainly studying the plague, could it be in..."

At that moment, Han Dong steeply recalled, the Mysticism Department's Subsidiary Area that the graveyard steward had spoken of.

[Old Sewer]

This subsidiary area was dangerous in the cemetery steward's mouth, and it was not recommended for Han Dong to go there.

It was about a hundred meters of descent.

The bottom of the ladder.

An underground area filled with a pale-yellow light was revealed before Han Dong's eyes.

The pale yellow did not come from the kerosene lamp.

Rather, it was a large number of fluorescent germs clinging to the sewer walls, the largest glowing tissue even the size of an arm.

Communities of spores floating in the air then spread the yellow light to all areas of the sewer.

Between the cracks in the walls, colorful fungal mushrooms could be seen.

Even the bodies of some of the rats that scampered here had mushroom colonies growing on them, and were larger than average.

Some of the mutated insects even had bodies and strange postures that were beyond normal people's understanding.

"Ordinary people will only become fungus feeders in this environment, right."

Just as Han Dong was considering how he was going to step into this area.

"Caw!" The raven resting on his shoulder cawed.

The raven actually changed directly into a living beak mask that was actively worn on Han Dong's face.

The raven's feathers changed into a black robe that kept the fungus in the [Old Sewer] out of his body.
