Ansel surprisingly didn't ask any more questions and agreed to 'Klosen's' suggestion. He was seriously injured, so how could he rely on a wood-type mage who wasn't good at fighting?

Don and 'Klossen' had already agreed that the terms had to be negotiated so that the dark mages' influence would be officially recognized in the royal city. They didn't need to whitewash their actions; they could even designate them as a villainous alliance. The key was that their influence had to be recognized by the general public.

After all, the side quest didn't specify that legitimate and legal forces must have a good reputation... As for things like whitewashing, that's something to be planned slowly after the force has been officially recognized.

He's done things in two separate ways, and this isn't the first time he's tried to exploit loopholes in the main god's schemes.

......

When Furnas came down to relieve him, 'Klosen' had already settled Ansel in. He even volunteered to take some time to 'negotiate' with the dark mage. Afterward, he called Don over to discuss terms with Ansel.

The negotiation process proceeded as planned. Faced with a greater threat, Chad would only choose to compromise. The two sides, who were not on good terms, began to work together to get through the Warcraft crisis. They managed to become somewhat familiar with each other, which laid the foundation for his later successful whitewashing.

Between missions and casualties, 'Klosen' prioritized side quests and didn't choose to stick with either side when both were available at the same time.

Moreover, he even found an opportunity to sneak out and take a dump, intending to use up the three months of life he had gained here.

The two bodies met at the same time for the first time.

Unlike an external avatar differentiated from the original body, or an inanimate object like a puppet, these are two genuine human bodies.

This feeling is truly wonderful; it's like the familiarity of holding your own left hand with your right, and also a tacit understanding between hearts.

Most importantly...

The feeling of wearing the large size of the Yuling over the small size is just sooooo comfortable!

Especially the smaller version, whose face was completely sculpted according to his own aesthetic sense, is simply a perfect large toy doll to him. It would be a waste of his effort in sculpting the face if he didn't touch it to his heart's content.

The blue and green figures intertwined, and with complete confidence in themselves, they made the transfer of lifespan quite fast. What originally took three to five days to complete the application was reduced to one day.

However, Yu Ling underestimated the power of magical items to conceal his presence and become invisible. Not being very familiar with magic, he was unexpectedly spotted by Anliz, who was patrolling invisibly, while the two accounts were interacting intimately.

What's even more infuriating is that, despite being born in the royal city, he actually recognized the face of 'Klosen'!

I guess she's a relative of one of his nobles, and she introduced him to him in a fabricated background.

Anliz: Oh no! My good friend has been seduced by a shady guy with his good looks! What should I do?

As an upright genius, he rarely came into contact with the darker side of the nobility, had no bad habits, was extremely virtuous, and knew very little about that aspect of life.

But these two are practically face to face! And Yu Ling, who's always expressionless, is smiling so brightly, making that green-haired pretty boy look like an eyesore no matter how you look at him.

Anliz hardened his fist, really wanting to blast that shameless wood mage with a few fireballs, preferably burning the pretty boy black so he could never use his face to seduce his good friend again!

Yu Ling knew nothing about this.

He even brazenly kissed his own alt in front of Enriz...

Enriz's face darkened.

"Ahem! Roy!"

He hid around a corner, dropped his disguise, and pretended to be approaching.

Where are you?

Yu Ling, who was having a great time sticking the two numbers together, suddenly had a stress reaction and separated the two numbers by three meters.

'Klosen' straightened his disheveled clothes, took the space crystal he had extorted from Ansel, and slipped away.

When Anlitz stepped back in, only Yu Ling, with a cold expression and no indication of what she had just done, remained where she was.

...You're smart to know what's good for you!

After making up his mind, Anliz decided to keep a close eye on his companion, so he followed Yuling everywhere, even insisting that Yuling lead him on missions, which left Yuling completely bewildered.

Fortunately, 'Closon' had no intention of coming back anytime soon and stayed with the new defense team formed by Chad and Don, doing medical work.

Soon, the monster riot finally subsided, and a few infected monsters strayed to other defensive lines, which greatly reduced the possibility of 'Klosen' and his team being exposed, and also left Chad with the impression that dark magic was also very useful.

As agreed, Ansel would, in the name of the Holy Knights, discuss with the King the escaped dark mages led by Don, and establish a legitimate and legitimate force.

—As expected, the king only gave him an empty title, without any benefits or treatment.

However, Yu Ling was already quite satisfied and withdrew from the defense line with peace of mind, carrying with her three full months of lifespan.

As long as 'Klosen' continues to switch between the two sides, while simultaneously whitewashing the reputation of the Dark Mage and using both his main and alternate accounts to farm lives, he can easily finish the side quests and survive another year on the main quest.

The system cat was naturally not going to be let off by Yu Ling.

It became a real-time communication tool, responsible for following Tang En and his group to deliver intelligence. Each time, it would pretend to be carrying a note and running around, but in reality, it would just find a secluded place to take it out from its storage space.

Just when everything seemed to be going perfectly according to plan, a crucial plot point involving a change in the main character quietly arrived.

About a month later, the four-man Chad team did not take 'Klosen' on a long trip and then suddenly disappeared. When they met again, several powerful individuals with completely different power systems were hanging behind them.

According to Chad, they came from a distant continent separated from their homeland by a storm rift. They didn't use magic but instead used demonic energy to modify their bodies. Each of them was a master of melee combat, with thick skin and tough flesh, but their ranged attacks were also formidable, just not as specialized as Chad's.

'Closon' was amused.

Isn't this the perfect tool to whitewash a dark mage?

A wood-type mage who had been out of touch with the main group for a long time watched helplessly as Chad and his companions were chased and forced to retreat, with the dark mages like Don standing idly by.

Even the number of invaders from other continents who teleported in through spatial rifts was increasing.

This day.

Esbil, who was returning to the royal city alone to guard his home, was besieged by a group of invaders from another continent on the way.

A wood-elemental mage, who happened to be passing by, with an exceptionally handsome face, mingled up beside him, raised his hand to lift the chin of the silver-haired, handsome man, and parted his thin lips slightly:

"Do you need any help, Holy Light Mage?"
