Chapter 1689 Monster Among People

"Tsk. As expected, I have to solve it myself." Theo clicked his tongue, sitting down in Maya's office while complaining.

Theo had spiky white hair right now. His face looked aged, but he still couldn't be considered an old man because the white hair came from the stress he got from his work. Despite his aged face, his body was muscular and brimming with energy.

"Ary Tjahaja. You're from Indonesia. You got teleported to this place because of the apocalypse and are stuck in this base. You are a Mythical Rank Fire Magician, who has been working for me ever since the apocalypse because I helped you."

"I have a few questions. First of all, why do you want me to be an Indonesian? If you don't want me to stand out, then you should make me an American."

"No, you have to stand out, but not too much. I'm sure you already know this, you have to participate in all kinds of things so that you can observe all people participating in this event. Even the Vice President will make his appearance later. That's the reason."

"OK. Understandable. But why Indonesian? We can use other countries…"

"Well, I don't think it's good to use anything around Central Asia since it's close to your hometown, which makes them doubt you. And the countries around this base are also a no go because you won't be able to stand out at all.

"Also, there's no way I'm going to give you an identity from Europe since we will have a problem with the union. Hence, that leaves me with two options, Southeast Asia or Australia. You have a lot of experience with Australia, so I pick the former.

"And among the Southeast Asia Countries, I think you have talked to Indonesian the most… I mean, the only people you talk to now are all important people and the only person coming from those countries is Tirta Kurniawan, the Daemon. So, I'm sure you have understood his accent, right? This is the least suspected identity I could find."

"Fine." Theo sighed. "I'll take the identity for now. But even after learning their accent, how do you even pronounce this? Tja-ha-ja? Am I supposed to laugh when announcing my name?"

"It's Cahaya. Light."

"Oh." Theo nodded in understanding. "Weird, but interesting. OK. Anything else I need to know about my new identity?"

"I'll send you the remaining information for your background."

Theo received the data immediately, so after he checked it, he turned off his Skylink and asked, "Lastly, you want me to investigate that place, right?"

"Yes. Of course, you're the one in charge, so the method is up to you."

"Well, this is also a good opportunity to hide. Currently, there is a lot of surveillance near my territory. They seem to be trying to figure out my next move. With this new role, I could send my clone to raise my level while I'm trying to figure out this weird case."

Maya nodded. "Of course. I'll be helping you whenever you need it. Just call me."

"Got it. How many people are going to attend this event?"

"There are approximately one thousand students and fifty teachers. The students come from many backgrounds. There are people from upper-class society and there are some normal people as well. Their strength ranges from the lowest rank to Supreme Rank. It seems it's a good idea to gather so many teachers from different cultures to teach their specialty, mixing all of them together."

"But I have to act like a Fire Magician, right? I don't think I have extensive knowledge about Fire."

"But I don't think anyone can easily beat you in Magic Power manipulation, right? Just use your fire through that manipulation, giving birth to a new kind of manipulation… Don't you think so?"

"Certainly, but I just hope that they won't suspect anything." Theo sighed.

"I believe in the world's greatest human, Theodore Griffith. I'm sure you do a wonderful job."

"Tsk." Theo clicked his tongue. "So, what's the payment for this event?"

"What? You're asking for payment when I'm trying to help you infiltrate the event to find out about this incident that can harm humanity as a whole? I'm helping you here and you still ask me to pay you." Maya pouted, disappointed.

"So, you don't pay me for replacing another person you should have chosen to attend this event?"

"Of course, I have prepared the payment." Maya's disappointed face instantly changed into a bright smile. She said, "I have been bribing people in the government to understand their plan. You should know they're aiming at you and the Mafia Queen, right?

"In exchange for doing this, I'm going to give you all the information I've got from them. What do you think? This is inside information, you know. And the people I've bribed are in high positions."

"…" Theo thought for a moment. Even Akbar and Eleanor would have a hard time getting information from the government since it was protected tightly. So, bribing corrupt officials would be the safest way.

So, this deal wasn't that bad.

"Fine. I'll do it."

"Of course. I have prepared the car and your luggage has been packed up. You'll have to do the registration first as soon as you arrive."

Theo sat up and said, "Alright then. I'll go immediately."

…

Theo didn't realize the extent of this problem. He walked toward the registration office and handed his documents as a woman suddenly came and handed the document as well.

"Please take mine as well. I'm sorry…"

The woman had chestnut hair and wore big round glasses. She had a sloppy expression as if telling everyone that she would mess up on something. But that wasn't what piqued Theo's interest. It was the status he saw.

Name: Rgsawr

Level: 799

Skill: Freezing Palm, Ice Burst, Eternal Ice, Frozen Palace, Freezing Prison, Ice Lock.

There was a person that didn't have any data about her EXP, Blessing, and Attributes.

And the only creature that would give only this amount of information was… a monster.
