[Mission accomplished: Host has to enter the academy in the next two months and get every stat above 20 before the academy.
Reward: Avatar
Description: The Avatar is a living entity who will live as the host's tailor. Everything about the Avatar can be accessed by the host anytime and from anywhere, and the host can alter their thinking to suit the host's needs. The host can also create a hunter who can use a different element than the host with the same attack power and intensity if the host possesses this body. Moreover, the Avatar can also be a vessel for the host to be reborn if the host dies in the future.]

Lish stared at the system's notification, trying to process the implications of the Avatar description. "So it's like I have the power of a god, able to create another living being beside me and alter their personality anytime I want?" he mused, feeling a mix of excitement and awe. The part where he could use a different element in the Avatar's body with the same rank power as his original body was astonishing. "If I'm an S-rank hunter, I can use S-rank power in the Avatar's body too? That's incredibly handy."
With this power, Lish realized he could switch between his body and the Avatar, maintaining his rank and abilities but with a different body and element. This capability would grant him unprecedented freedom and discretion in the future. For instance, he could be fighting on one front as Lysander Aurelius while the Avatar, Lucas Adler, could be handling another mission simultaneously, both with the same level of prowess. This versatility would be invaluable in complex situations requiring multiple fronts or secrecy.
"Most importantly, I can be reborn in the Avatar's body if I die. That's the biggest perk of all," Lish thought, his excitement growing. An extra life is something everyone desires, regardless of whether they are an F-rank or an SSS-rank hunter. The ability to continue his journey even after death was a safety net that provided immense peace of mind. "Having a second chance is priceless."
The more he thought about it, the more he understood the value of this reward. He had to ensure that Luke bought the mansion at Solstice with the utmost care, involving numerous security agencies to guarantee the Avatar's safety. "I can't risk my Avatar, Lucas Adler's safety," Lish decided firmly.
With the newfound clarity, Lish formulated a detailed plan to secure the Avatar's safety and enhance his capabilities. He would need to communicate with Luke, making sure the mansion was fortified and well-protected. High-tech security systems, magical wards, and a discreet yet effective personal security team would be essential to safeguard Lucas Adler's identity and residence.
As for the reward, he decided to keep it in the system for now. After all, he wasn't sure if he could store the avatar back in the system if he took it out. What would he say to his father if he came out of the training room with a different man with him? His father would surely have questions, and Lish preferred to avoid unnecessary explanations.
A month from now, Luke would complete the identification process for his new avatar. For now, Lish needed the avatar to focus on a simple task: write a novel and publish it to garner attention. The attention brought to the avatar should also count for Lish since they were completely interlinked. He knew the minimum time to complete one novel in his previous world was around four months. For Lish, who already knew all the contents, the amount of time could be halved or even shorter—perhaps around a month. For a hunter who could use mana to enhance himself and didn't need to take breaks like ordinary humans, the duration of work could be halved again, making it around half a month for one novel.
If he let the avatar start writing now, he could complete at least two novel volumes before the end of the month. He also needed to introduce Lucas to a novel agency, which could be managed by Luke. Lish exited the training room and sent a message to Luke, asking him to meet at a cafe he had reserved, five kilometers from his house.
In the car, Lish checked his avatar's status:
---
Name: Lucas Adler
Age: 21 years old
Affinity: Chose one from 7 basic elements
Strength: Same as the host (if the host possesses the avatar)
Personality: Please write his personality
Gender: Male
Appearance: Please decide

"Alright, for affinity, I will pick fire. Its principles might be somewhat similar to mine. I'm lying; I picked fire because it's the coolest element in my opinion. Also, while I can access the same strength as my original body, it doesn't mean I can use the same spells. How could I use Beam and Blink in Lucas's body? However, the principles should work the same. I should be able to use a Beam technique with the fire element, although the precision will be greatly reduced, but the sheer amount of fire will make up for it," Lish mused.
As for the personality, he decided Lucas would be a sociable person who could hold his own in high society. He wanted Lucas to join the artist circle in the future since he would be an author. This would come after his novel succeeded. Speaking of the novel, Lish planned for Lucas to write a 'Harry Potter' novel from his previous world. This story should attract significant attention. The avatar should also be able to think for himself, taking care of himself like a normal, cautious person.
For appearance, he envisioned Lucas with soft facial features to make him more sociable. A handsome gentleman with a tall build, perfect for entering high-class social circles. His hair would be short and red, completely different from Lish's long blue hair.
"Save"

"Driver, can you stop at the nearest public toilet for a moment?" Lish asked.
The car slowly parked at the nearest public toilet. Inside, Lish claimed his reward, and then a figure materialized through thin air.
"Young master," greeted a tall, handsome man with red hair, Lucas Adler.
"Lucas, come to this cafe after an hour," Lish instructed, giving him the address and money for a taxi. Lucas looked exactly as he had imagined.
"Understood, young master."
With everything done, Lish exited the bathroom and returned to his car.
"Is everything done, young master?" the driver asked.
"Yes," Lish replied.
The car continued its journey and slowly arrived at the cafe.
Lish stepped out of the car, seeing Luke, his new butler already waiting for him at the entrance of the café. "Alright, let's go in."
Inside the café, not a single soul could be seen except for the staff, because Lish had booked the entire place for two hours. The atmosphere was serene, with soft background music playing and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air. The décor was elegant, with polished wooden tables, comfortable chairs, and tasteful artwork adorning the walls. Large windows allowed the morning sunlight to flood in, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.
"May I know why you called me here, young master?" Luke broke the silence as they took their seats at a cozy corner table.
"You will know soon. Waiter," Lish called out.
A waiter promptly approached their table, dressed in a crisp white shirt and black apron. "Good morning, sirs. What can I get for you today?"
"I'll have a cappuccino," Lysander said.
"I'll take an espresso," Luke added.
The waiter nodded, scribbling down their orders on a notepad. "Anything else?"
"That will be all for now," Lish replied with a polite smile.
As the waiter walked away to prepare their drinks, Luke observed the café's interior, appreciating the attention to detail and the luxurious yet comfortable setting. Not long after, Lucas arrived at the café.
Seeing the new arrival, Luke instinctively readied himself, positioning himself protectively in front of Lysander. He didn't know someone else would be joining the meeting, and his training as a butler and bodyguard kicked in.
"He is with us," Lysander stated calmly, signaling for Luke to relax.
Lucas approached the table, his red hair catching the light, and greeted them with a polite nod. "Good morning, young master. Good morning, sir," he said, acknowledging both Lysander and Luke.
The waiter returned with their coffee orders, placing the cappuccino and espresso on the table with practiced ease. "Would you like anything to drink, sir?" the waiter asked Lucas.
"I'll have a latte, please," Lucas replied.
The waiter nodded and headed back to the counter. Lish took a sip of his cappuccino, savoring the rich flavor and creamy texture, while Luke cautiously eyed Lucas, still trying to assess the situation.
"Lucas, this is Luke Bernold, my new butler," Lysander introduced. "Luke, this is Lucas Adler. He will be working with us on a special project."
Luke nodded, still slightly on edge but trusting Lish's judgment. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Lucas."
"The pleasure is mine," Lucas replied with a warm smile.
The waiter returned with Lucas's latte, placing it on the table before stepping back. Lucas took a sip, his eyes lighting up with appreciation for the expertly crafted drink.
"Now that we're all here, let's discuss the project," Lish began, setting his cup down. "Lucas will be writing a novel, and I want him to garner as much attention as possible. This will help us achieve one of our goals. Luke, you will assist him in any way necessary, ensuring he has everything he needs."
Luke listened attentively, understanding the importance of the task. "Of course, young master. I'll do my best to support Lucas."
Lish nodded, satisfied with the response. "Good. Lucas, start writing immediately. We don't have much time. Remember, this is crucial for our mission."
Lucas nodded, determination evident in his eyes. "Understood, young master. I'll get to work right away."
"Also, Luke, I want you to rent a house for Lucas to live in for now," Lish continued. "Make sure it's a comfortable and quiet place where he can focus on his writing."
"Consider it done, young master," Luke replied. "I'll handle the arrangements immediately."
With their roles clarified, the three of them continued their meeting, discussing the finer details of the project and ensuring everyone was on the same page. The café remained a quiet haven, allowing them to focus on their plans without interruption. They outlined the specifics of the novel Lucas would write, aiming for a story that would captivate readers and draw significant attention.
As the meeting progressed, Lish shared his ideas for the novel's plot, characters, and themes. Lucas took detailed notes, already envisioning how he would bring the story to life. Luke, meanwhile, planned the logistics of supporting Lucas, including procuring writing materials, setting up a comfortable workspace, and managing any additional needs that might arise.
By the time they finished their drinks, a clear plan was in place. Lish felt a sense of satisfaction, knowing that the pieces were falling into place for his mission. The three of them stood up, ready to leave the café and put their plans into action.
