[System: Enter the hideout of the secret organization in the northern district]
"This looks like the ideal hiding spot of a secret organization?" He found himself standing in front of a weapon shop that was bustling with a ton of players
[24/7 item shop? Are you sure about this? I haven't noticed anything thats suspicious]
'Of course, they're not going to promote their real jobs, the only clue I have is that poster... A ton of them was mostly related to night, dark, or shadow... It sounds like a coincidence but if you combine every title of the poster it says, the darkness we lurk, our enemies are many. Our purpose is to maintain peace and stability in the world as we see fit,'
[System: You've entered the main hide-out on your first try!!! You'll be given 50 contribution points]
"Hello, there welcome to our shop what can I help you with?" The shop clerk said while he points to the posters and said
"Do you have a few stocks of shadow puppets?" He replied while the clerk grab him by the hand and dragged him to the back of the shop
"What was that!!? You sounded a little too suspicious!!! Forget it, I have to go back to my spot. Go through that door, the higher-ups want to speak with you," She left and he notices a hidden door that appears once she was certain of his identity
[System: Enter the door right in front of you, your next mission. It'll depend on how you attained the role]
'It looks like they see me as their fellow member... I need to find out what's the 4th mission I hope it's related to Deniro Alphas... That deity, I didn't think I'll meet him at the trials. If I want to beat that prick I need to learn about his avatar if he gained a new puppet,'
He opened the door and reveals a closet, he looks a little closer and he sees some circle spells. There were three layers which consist of Identification, Teleportation, and lastly, a spell meant to eliminate anyone who wasn't recognized by the Identification circle. The closes once he entered the closet after that he got scanned by the circle spells
When everything was verified and he was seen as a member the second circle activated and teleported him to an unknown area. He finds himself in the center of an audience where his spot was the only place touched by the light. He could feel that a ton of eyes are darting at his presence and scanning his body from the inside out
"So this is the outstanding recruit? To think he's the one who discovered the mad alchemist's lab. Quite talented I say, he even brought the information we've been looking for," said an old man while he praised him in the shadows
"Captain you shouldn't praise him, thats a poison to our way of work... It blinds the young, praising them would only grow their ego," The man beside him said while another one stopped their quarrels
"Sigh, this isn't a discussion it's a meeting of our next move... Thanks to our recruit that did a job well done, I suggest that we vote that he rise to intermediate instead of beginner... I'm not that old for my eyes to be fooled, he's not an ordinary person. He's skilled in the art of stealth, what could be the reason he stands before us right now?" They all started to vote and it ended with his promotion
'Intermediate ranking...? Sweet!!! I might be able to get the most points out of this trial, I just need to do my best,'
"Now thats finished let's get to the point member 397 we need you to enter these abandoned buildings that we marked. We suspect that the group consisting of Deniro and he's followers might stir a commotion. The rest of the members are investigating the city for any irregularities," Je was given a map before he got teleported back to the closet

[A new journey awaits the most popular player in the world of trials... But first, how about we get you some equipment? You have a ton of tokens from acquiring the dungeon core, we need some items as well. You can't avoid this requirement, every player needs a piece of armor or two]
'I wasn't lying when I told Hyunsu about my plan one day, or another, Hugo would need a ton of money. When that time arrives he's going to do a lot of useless and despicable things just for money... It's a waste of everyone's time, im just gonna mooch around his luck when he asks for money. I gave him a god tier fucking luck if he opens a normal chest it would be filled with an expensive item that he just got for free,'
"Thank you for your purchases," the clerk said and he quickly wears his new equipment before he exits the fitting room

"It's better than storming the facilities without any preparation this is the only set of equipment that can't hinder my movements," Once that was over he sprints to the closest facility whilst he didn't notice that he passed through the Velvet Queen and her men
'That's the surge of mana...? I've felt that in the trials... It's spell thief, I need to catch him it looks like he got stronger after his clash against that boss,'
"Carry on without me, I think I've found something to entertain me for a while," She followed the traces of mana he left whilst she donned a sinister smile
[To think there are a ton of abandoned facilities in the safe zone and they never checked them out until now]
"Stop acting so superior... If this timeline has their technology so focused on alchemy then these buildings might have a ton of toxic waste. It might be poisonous to humans or other kinds of races that they avoided any kind of contact," Before he could enter the building he wore his mask and entered a small hole in the roof
He entered a rusty and outdated, workshop filled with scribbled walls and a lot of toxic fumes. There were a bunch of opened rooms that seemed to be sealed and he finds a few cues of a break-in. He was about to leave the facility and that's when he noticed something strange
The shadow of a certain object was strange when he points his magic orb that lit his way through the rooms. He was curious about his findings and he took a closer look at the door, and his hand passes through. It was an illusion spell? The door that he's catching a glimpse of was fake
[Appraisal: Illusion detected]
[Someone entered this place!!! You have to inspect that illusion-filled room who knows the reason that they put a spell was to obtain a ton of chemicals?]
"It's not tampered with a sound enchantment which nullifies any traces of sound... It looks like no one's inside...? I need to check out the remaining rooms... Mirage!!! Spread out and check every locked room," His copies answered his orders and investigated the remaining room
Without anything for him to do he used his spare time scribbling his traps against the Deniro's followers. He was sure that they'll come again for some potions since the illusion was placed an hour before he arrived. With the story quest hasn't yet been updated, he guessed that his mirage finished their search. Within a small amount of time before they could disappear he peek at their memories. He didn't find any irregularities and the only lead he has was the room that was the room emitting an intense radioactive glow
[Story quest: Investigate the marked facility for anything unusual: 10/1]
"This will be a long day of waiting, should I just place a ton of detection circle spells?" He asked his deity for his opinion and before he could get an answer he dodges an attack
It was a dagger that was thrown into his location with the help of the reflection emitted he escape without any kind of damage. When he turns around to face the perpetrator it was revealed to be a red-headed figure a
"My oh my it's a pleasure to finally meet you Spell thief,"
'Her hair was red as blood her smile is a sign of danger, her personality is that of a tyrannical ruler. She was a person that can't be swayed by any man and she toys with a man that gained her attention. She was the one and only ruler of the Red Velvet mercenary group. This character was said to be a symbol of both death and destruction a character named Velvet Airis,'
