Right after ending the call with Delmar, William heaved a huge sigh of relief.

\'Whew! That went well. I was beginning to think I might have lost my first supporting character.\'

\'Now all that remains is for him to come here and work for me…But what on earth is he going to work on anyway?\' As he mulled over this, a sudden thought barged into his head as he realized he had just recruited one of the most wanted men of a kingdom.

\'Okay… How did I not consider this before recruiting him! Man, the prospect of making him one of my future supporters made me forget that I had not just recruited any guy but a FREAKING MOST WANTED criminal with a bounty of… How much was it again?\'

William looked upwards at the empty walls above and said, "Arthur, can you tell me how much the reward is for catching the bald guy who was just shown a while ago?"

[ Estimating ]

[ Approximately a total of 500 million dollars will be given as a reward for anyone who can apprehend the perpetrator known as \'Daniel Docks\' ]

[ And if someone is able to help locate his whereabouts or predict his future movements accurately, they will be given 5000 to 20000 dollars, depending on the value of the information ]

\'Okay, where was I?\'

\'Yes, I had just recruited a guy who has a 500 million dollar bounty on his head.\'

\'Well, if I get caught, I\'ll just try to lie by saying he tried to do a shotacon stunt on me, and I had to endure for some time before I could distract him and get him in the spotlight.\'

\'I just realized… my storytelling ability is the worst.\'

As William pondered the many, many child \'interaction\' stories in his head, a question came to him.

\'Hmm, the bounty on Delmar\'s head is quite large, but neither the news nor any social media outlet can tell me accurately who or what organization had placed the bounty on him.\'

\'All they are telling is that he has a bounty and nothing more.\'

"Arthur, can you find out who it was or what reason it really was that placed the bounty on that man?"

[ Please wait a moment, Sir ]

[ Searching ]

[…]

[ I\'m sorry sir, but I couldn\'t find anything related to who or what might have been the cause of the bounty ]

"Not even a small inkling?"

[ No sir, nothing at all ]

\'Hmm, it most likely should have been the Goldstein Great House that put the bounty, and the reason for the anonymity could be what Delmar had done to their agent who was sent to kill me… Well, at least that\'s what I think, but who knows what really happened.\'

\'If only I ever get an item in the future that might help me see anything that I want to see… If only.\'

\'Well, forget about that. Now let\'s check one thing in the system that is has been bugging me for some time.\'

William opened the system stats to look at one particular thing.

[ William\'s Stats ]

[ Name: William Trust ]

[ Potential: Godly ]

[ Level: ONE (Ready for Advancement) ]

[ Realm: Peak ]

_____________

\'Looking at the level section, it\'s telling me that I am ready to advance to the next LEVEL. But I can\'t do it right now.\'

\'It\'s not that I can\'t literally do it, NO. It\'s just that the cleaning service group is still here, so I can\'t start the process of advancing to the next level yet.\'

William thought despairingly until another thought intruded.

\'But that\'s not stopping me from at least learning about what my awakening materials are.\'

William thought and was about to start learning about that but stopped himself as he surveyed his surroundings.

\'I can\'t do this in the living room; it\'s too exposed here.\'

\'Even if there is nobody here who would try to harm me with Clawdia standing guard, that doesn\'t mean that I shouldn\'t be more protective.\'

William stood up and walked up the stairs to a distant room with the ever-following Clawdia behind him. He locked the door and sat on the empty floor that lacked any furniture.

After taking one final look and ensuring that nobody could be seen, he closed his eyes and delved deeper into his inner mind.

Slowly but surely, he was sent to the same infinitely dark space where William had been practicing his breathing skills for more than a year.

William opened his eyes to see the two cubes that had intricate designs on them and were infinitely beautiful in their own tranquil way. They were the only two things that lit up this dark and desolate space.

He slowly floated over and approached both of the cubes that stood side by side in that one place without any inclination of life or death.

He touched both of the cubes and closed his eyes as he tried to connect with them in a far deeper way.

After a few moments, he could see glimpses of a few things that suddenly came and went. William tried to concentrate on those things as the glimpses started to slowly become more and more recognizable until he could clearly see what they were.

The things he was currently seeing in his inner mind were the awakening materials he needed for his advancement, but there was something seriously strange about them.

Instead of two items that were generally needed as materials so that one may advance to the next level, William was seeing four. He could also see their structures and their names which came to his head as if he already knew them.

Looking at the four materials, William didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry at this development.

\'Should have known that a novel protagonist will always face problems whenever he or she is trying to climb the ladder, but at least I have advantages that will help me in that regard.\'

After contemplating the awakening materials a little more, William got out of his inner mind as he thought about what to do next.

\'Hmm, now before I start advancing, I will need to do two things precisely.\'

\'One, I need to get the awakening materials, which I hope are available in the system shop.\'

\'And second, I need to isolate myself from anything that might disrupt me during the advancement process. That I can do in this room too, so that doesn\'t matter as much.\'

\'Right now, let\'s see if the awakening materials that I need are available in the system shop.\'

William opened the system shop and typed in one of the names of the awakening materials he needed.

[ Searching ]

[ No items like this are available in the shop ]

Looking at the words that were written by the system, a sense of dread filled his heart before he typed in the next item that was needed.

But like the one before, this one also couldn\'t be found as the system wrote.

[ No items like this are available in the shop ]

William fell into a deep depression until he noticed something as he thought.

\'The system is telling me that the item I\'m searching for isn\'t available, but I am looking for an awakening material, not a skill… so let\'s try this.\'

William opened the shop again, but this time he opened the filter settings and set the search section to \'Awakening Material\' before typing the words and searching for it.

\'Let\'s hope this works, otherwise I\'ll need to organize a search party for them.\'
