I Might As Well Quit This Lousy Wizard Profession

Chapter 99 - 99 092 I will take care of your wife

?Chapter 99: 092 I will take care of your wife! Chapter 99: 092 I will take care of your wife! “This is the identity I’ve prepared for you.”

Upon reaching the young boss’s office, he handed over a photograph. It showed a skinny man dressed in black clothes and pants, wearing a black fisherman’s hat and black face mask.

Seeing Lin An’s confusion, he pointed to a USB drive on the desk.

“All the specific information is on the USB drive. This person is already dead. In order to leave some money for his parents back home, he sold his identity to us at Lu Jiao before his death.”

“A social phobia sufferer, with moderate depression, he usually kept to himself and worked as a freelance writer, staying at home most of the time and trying his best to cover himself up when going out.”

“He had no friends, and he moved to Shenhou City to avoid the social interactions of his rural hometown.”

“The house he rented is one of Lu Jiao’s properties, and nobody knows that he has been sent back home for burial.”

Lin An silently looked at the guy in the photo who didn’t even show his face and sighed, “It’s as if he never left any trace in this world.”

“Of course, he did.” The young boss pointed to the ID card, bank card, car keys, and a house key on the desk. “Although he dropped out of high school, his classmates back home have a deep impression of him. There were a few people who saw his face when he bought a used car, and getting a bank card required showing his face as well.”

“So, you need to familiarize yourself quickly with that set of shape-shifting leather armor. The USB drive contains all his information, including his videos.”

“Also, the witchcraft bracelet, you must quickly master any one of the spells from the witchcraft materials. We will arrange an opportunity for you to inadvertently expose yourself before the ‘Mad Warlock’s Hollow’ Organization.”

Lin An nodded silently and packed away these things.

As the undercover plan began to be implemented step by step, he felt a mounting pressure.

But he had no choice, Professor Cao and Doctor Zhang might tolerate him as a wizard, but the same couldn’t be said for the other Antler Witch Hunter Knights.

He had to perfect this undercover identity to avoid exposing his true identity as a wizard to the other Knights.

He certainly didn’t want to risk his life to find out whether Professor Cao and his colleagues could prevent the Witch Hunter Knights from hunting him down.

“An!”

Just as he was about to leave with a solemn expression, the young boss called out to him.

The young boss had a complicated look on his face, “Yesterday, you were whispering with Old Cao and the others, but I can probably guess something—I suspect you already know that I am a wizard.”

Lin An nodded.

“I think it’s necessary to say something. Undercover work is extremely dangerous, and I need your cooperation,” the young boss spoke sincerely. “So, I hope there will be no misunderstandings that could affect our trust.”

Seeing Lin An not answering, he continued.

“I introduced you to Mr. Cao because I truly wanted you to learn about armor. My aspiration to revive my family’s glory begins with developing the first game. That’s only the start.”

“You are the most important producer in my gaming empire. I would never voluntarily drag you into the whirlpool of the Transcendent World. It’s not in my interest!”

“So you learned the Witch Hunter Knight’s cultivation from Professor Cao, and then you followed me to the Witches’ Assembly where you were awakened as a wizard. All these were things I realized only after the fact.”

Lin An’s silent expression gradually calmed down, a subtle change that the young boss noticed.

This gave him a sense of relief that Lin An had indeed misunderstood some things about him.

“My father is dedicated to researching the method by which a wizard can transform into a Witch Hunter Knight, not just in hopes of changing the structure of the Supernatural World, but also ambitiously yearning for Lu Jiao to grow instantly to a size beyond any other force’s wildest imagination.”

“I share the same ambition. I not only inherited my father’s ‘Chive Garden Self-Sustaining Furnace Plan,’ I even aspire to take it further, to have a Transcendent possess both the might of a Witch Hunter Knight and the spell-casting abilities of a wizard.”

Seeing Lin An’s expression turn weird, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Crap!”

“Don’t look down on me, I’ve really figured out a few things.”

“The day I asked you out for a drink, it was to tell you that I finally realized you are a wizard. You’ve just been awakened, and soon you’ll encounter problems with your emotions. I can teach you methods that are better than those of both the Witch Hunter Knights and wizards.”

“But…”

The young boss narrowed his eyes, watching Lin An with a serious expression, “I felt the presence of a wizard in your house, which made me think about the surveillance cameras in my office, so I hesitated…”

“I’ve explained my side and the potential misunderstandings that could have arisen. Now, Lin An, can you give me an explanation?”

Lin An sneered, “If I wanted to keep an eye on you, the best way would be to install a virus on your computer and phone—such a simple thing.”

“A virus!” The young boss was shocked.

Lin An shrugged, “Why would I not use such a simple method and instead pick the most troublesome one? To invite a wizard to the company, taking such a big risk, just for a surveillance device?”

“Simple?” The young boss was incredulous.

“What a novelty.” Lin An rolled his eyes, “Your reaction, it really doesn’t seem like that of a gaming software company’s boss.”

“!!!” Alright, at least Lin An was still capable of mocking him, which meant he really hadn’t done anything. Annoyed as he was, the young boss nodded reluctantly.

“About that wizard in my house…”

Lin An paused for a moment, then shook his head, “That’s Chen Shuyun from the Witches’ Assembly. I don’t know why she’s latched onto me.”

“Damn!”

The young boss’s expression was incredibly dramatic. Lin An even sensed a hint of… jealousy?

Suddenly, the boss’s head on his suit collar turned into a wolf’s head.

The wolf’s head growled.

“I know how to solve this problem!”

“A wizard’s Seven Emotions and Six Desires are nearly overflowing, while a Witch-hunting Knight’s are a deep, empty pit. Even though they’re enemies due to their powers, it’s really easy for them to be attracted to each other, wow.”

“The Supernatural World has so many love-and-hate stories, it’s super thrilling!”

“Twisted madwomen and heartless stone men, hehehe…”

“Chen Shuyun must have been attracted by your charm, damn it, I’m so envious!”

“No wonder, I just couldn’t figure it out; Chen Shuyun’s yoga studio clearly only takes female students, why would she willingly accept you, a male member from Qin’s yoga studio.”

“Damn it! An! Don’t let femininity lead you astray!”

“Damn it! This hurts more than killing me! I’m so freaking jealous!”

Lin An actually found it quite strange. Why didn’t the young boss have much animosity towards Chen Xinmi and Chen Shuyun, the sisters?

Although the Witch Hunter Knights deliberately tolerated the existence of the weaker Witches’ Assembly, wasn’t it because the previous generation of the Witches’ Assembly was slaughtered, precisely because the young boss’s mother went undercover and his father took his buddies to be the executioners?

What was even weirder, how could Chen Xinmi tolerate the son of her parents’ killer, the young boss, to jump around alive right in front of her?

Could it be that the story of the past wasn’t as simple as Doctor Zhang and Professor Cao had described?

It didn’t matter to him, it wasn’t his business.

“No wonder…” The young boss looked heartbroken, “Hiding in the closet, you guys played quite the wild game, huh~”
How should one put this.

The feeling was like in a demon-hunting tale, where righteous Taoists would despise evil and exorcise demons, and female ghosts or fox spirits that drained people’s life force were the enemies of humans.

But scholars didn’t see it that way, they were way too fond of creatures like fox spirits, female ghosts, or white snakes.

The thrill was just too exhilarating.

The young boss was the scholar who got seduced by the fox spirit… or rather, the good friend of one.

Lin An had no interest in fantasizing about the young boss; he had too many things on his plate and went straight back to his office.

Inserting the USB flash drive into his laptop, Lin An called upon his spirit to assist his brain in rapidly memorizing every detail inside it.

Not a single word could be mistaken.

Then he rubbed his temples and suddenly felt a pair of gold-rimmed glasses appear on his face.

These glasses were clearly forged in the Furnace, just like Lu Jiao’s, capable of being absorbed into the body.

Using the glasses, he entered the ‘Inferno’ in the Red Light World and then went into a warehouse at the Knight Headquarters to take out a transforming leather armor.

Wearing ancient armor was especially troublesome, but the one in front of him was clearly closer to modern design.

It was a leather coat with a large hood, loose in style and made of unknown leather that was incredibly soft to the touch.

After putting on the leather coat and reaching into the hood, he pulled out a mask and placed it over his face.

Adjusting his breathing rhythm, Lin An skillfully entered the rhythm of the ‘Spirit Cat Spinal Stretching Technique’ aided by the ‘Deer Play Breathing Skill.’
Instantly, he felt as though he was soaked in hot water, his whole body warm and as if he could melt at any moment.

After a short while, his body began to distort.

He transformed into a warlock wearing a rabbit mask.

Yes!

He hadn’t first tried the false identity provided by the young boss but became this warlock instead.

Simultaneously, he began to switch his mind’s state, and this method still seemed to work; he quickly entered a mood of ‘chasing thrills.’
“Hahaha~~~”
He suddenly burst out laughing, laughing maniacally, bringing the rabbit mask close to the dimmed laptop screen, peering at the vague figure inside, and chuckling.

“Hello there, my code name is ‘Little Rabbit’!”

This would be his trump card for infiltrating the ‘Mad Warlock’s Hollow’ Organization.

“I’m looking forward to it!”

He widened his eyes to look at himself in the screen, watching the blurry figure seemingly turn into a Clown-faced Warlock, observing his somewhat frantic demeanor, and couldn’t help laughing out loud while pointing at him.

“Are you going to become me?”

“No, I’ll become you first. I wonder if your identity will be of any use?”

“Is there a warehouse or something like a deposit belonging to you in the Tree Hole Organization’s base?”

The Clown-faced Warlock became even more frantic, so aggrieved that he began to cry. Sobbing, he laughed madly at Lin An outside the screen.

Lin An also chuckled at him, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your wife!”
