A task as simple as being a runner could fetch fifty points of favorability from the Monarch of Wansheng Country, much to Yang Yu's surprise.
It seemed that this task was likely combined with another concerning saving the King's life.
Regardless, being able to increase the favorability of Wansheng Country's acting Monarch towards himself meant that there would be a substantial increase in the chances of his opinions being accepted in the future.
Yang Yu knelt down joyfully and accepted the task, immediately starting a discussion about contacting the Elf Queen.
To hide his relationship with Bai Jin and Iyas, Yang Yu planned to have Iyas and Bai Jin join the team as appointed by the Elf Queen, to facilitate further investigations.
Thus, Yang Yu did not expose at the beginning that it was Bai Jin who could use the Crystal Ball for contact; he was merely forced to receive it.
