After a brief exchange, it was confirmed that the homeless person in front of them was alright.

Duke Reeves then instructed several knights to take the wanderer to a safe area, providing him with food and a bed to rest.

He personally promised that he would be assigned a task soon.

Moments later, the knights returned to Revy's side from the safe zone.

"Your Grace, can we really trust this outsider?"

Reeves hesitated for a moment, then spoke:

"Whether we can trust him or not requires a few more days of observation, but if possible, we should try to get him to help us."

"After rescuing survivors for so long, our team's strength is dwindling, and we are under severe manpower shortage."

Today, they are even struggling to completely liberate the East District.

If this continues, our fighting strength will be further depleted, and we may even find it difficult to breach other districts.

Not to mention saving the survivors there.

If this person could truly be resurrected as the knights described, his value would undoubtedly be immeasurable by any number of knights.

No matter how dangerous the task, as long as it's entrusted to him, he will definitely be able to complete it successfully.

River paused, then continued:

"I will personally take charge of his task and compensation."

The Du Chloe family is, after all, very wealthy, and can easily spend a large sum of money.

The knight nodded, and just as he was about to turn and leave, he heard Reeves call out to him again:

"However, there's still one thing I don't quite understand."

Levi frowned, his expression somewhat strange, as if he had heard something quite ridiculous.

Then he spoke again and asked the knight a question;

"I don't really know much about names, but..."

"Is there really a person in this world named 'A Tom'?"

...

Because the name was too unusual, and because the person was clearly not from the empire, Levi decided to temporarily refer to him as an "adventurer".

After all, what this "adventurer" did was indeed extremely risky.

He ventured deep into the demon horde, making seven incursions to rescue survivors, attracting a frenzy of thousands of demons.

He even single-handedly rushed into the collapsing building, detonated the magic core amidst the demon man siege, and cleared the city's borders.

It was all done by this "adventurer" all by himself.

This kind of thing doesn't sound like something a normal person could do.

Each one is more terrifying and more thrilling than the last.

The slightest mistake could lead to utter ruin.

But ironically, this adventurer managed to do it all.

If he demonstrates extraordinary abilities and is able to complete these tasks, then Reeves wouldn't be surprised.

The problem is that his physical skills are inferior to a knight's, and his magic is inferior to a mage's.

Overall, all of his abilities are basically only at the first-tier level.

At most, he's slightly better than the average person.

This adventurer truly exemplified what it means to "complete a mission with one's life."

Sometimes, adventurers would slip and fall from the rocks, only to be swallowed up by hordes of demons.

But not long after, he would magically reappear in the safe zone, run out again, and carry out the mission once more.

Repeatedly, until the task was completely successful.

Moreover, this person accepts almost any type of task.

No matter how dangerous or routine the mission.

From single-handedly slaying the Devilman to climbing trees to rescue cats and dogs, he accepts it all.

You don't even need a lot of money; just a little bit of cash will do.

As a result, Rivi’s original plan to rescue the city made significant progress in a short period of time.

After all, whether it's scouting and mapping or rescuing survivors, every mission is almost always completed with zero casualties, making him a perfect tool.

However, if he wanted the other party to take action, Levi would have to be given a task.

In addition, some compensation.

As time went on, Levi gradually discovered the extraordinary nature of this remarkable person.

First of all, he is truly mute. Even if someone greets him, he will act as if he cannot hear them and will not respond.

Only when someone actively seeks his help can they glean some meaning from his silence.

Or perhaps Reeves has something urgent that he needs the other party to do, but he basically doesn't need to specifically look for them.

The adventurer seemed to have a telepathic connection, appearing before him in less than ten minutes.

Recently, Reeve has been trying to offer a set of new recruit armor as payment for completing his mission.

The other party did not disappoint Levi, quickly accepting the task and completing it in no time.

Levi thought this was an opportunity to catch a glimpse of the adventurer's true face while he was changing clothes.

However, when the other party received the armor, they put it on almost in the blink of an eye.

That's right, it's about replacement.

The other party barely made any movement to put on or take off their clothes; it was as if their clothing had been taken away out of thin air, and new armor had appeared out of nowhere.

Even the helmet was instantly pulled up on his head, leaving Levi no time to see the other person's face clearly.

Reeves tried to observe several times afterward, but each time he was about to concentrate, the other person had already changed.

This remains an unsolved mystery.

In addition, there are many other things that puzzled Levi.

For example, when there are no tasks, the other person will stay quietly in the room like a puppet, with their head down and no movement.

Even late at night, the other person would just stand still, without saying a word, and wouldn't even lie down in bed.

Even more strangely, no one has ever seen this adventurer eat.

He always seemed to be active when on a mission or traveling.
