Commissions initiated by humans to devils are usually received and completed by the local person in charge.
The reason why Anon's commission wasn't intercepted by the person in charge in London but was commissioned all the way to Japan is actually very simple.
The high-ranking devil responsible for the London area encountered members of the Hero Faction a few hours ago. As a newcomer who had just joined the Hero Faction, Le Fay naturally couldn't leak this kind of information.
"Tatsuma, London is currently a very dangerous place for Devils. You'd best not stay here for too long."
"I know what you mean."
Facing Le Fay's repeated reminders, Tatsuma nodded slightly and replied, "You mean Cao Cao and the others are here, and you want me not to run into them, right?"
"Eh?"
How did you know?
"I checked Heracles's memories, so I know what Cao Cao and the others have been doing lately."
As if guessing Le Fay's thoughts, Tatsuma raised his hand and tapped his head.
"Since you know about Cao Cao's existence, it seems their plan is going very smoothly."
"Not only did they win over your brother into the Hero Faction, but they also pulled you in along with him."
"This..."
"Let me guess, the reason this commission was cross-regional to London is also because the person in charge here was killed, right?"
"..."
"Looks like I guessed correctly."
"...Tatsuma, this is a residential area for ordinary people. I don't want to start a fight with you here."
Looking at Tatsuma, who had guessed the entire truth in just a few words, Le Fay's expression became tense.
"For the sake of your client and your own safety, please leave here."
"Relax, don't be nervous."
A smile appeared on Tatsuma's face. "If I really wanted to act, you would have already been dead."
Le Fay: "!"
Le Fay subconsciously took two steps back, her expression becoming increasingly serious.
Although Tatsuma's tone was casual, she could sense that he wasn't joking.
"I told you, don't be so nervous."
Tatsuma snapped his fingers, creating an isolation barrier around them.
"What do you think of this move of mine?"
"...It's a bit rudimentary."
Le Fay hesitated for a moment, then replied truthfully.
"That's right, it is indeed rudimentary."
Tatsuma nodded slightly and then summoned different elements like fireballs and lightning in his palm.
"In fact, the magic I currently use frequently are all things I've figured out, researched, and modified myself. Although they can be used to clear out small fry, I want to systematically learn some high-level magic."
"You want to sign a contract with me?" Le Fay vaguely understood Tatsuma's meaning and asked with some uncertainty.
Tatsuma nodded. "That's right, what do you think?"
Le Fay was silent for a moment, then shook her head. "I'm sorry. I might not be suitable for this position."
Tatsuma asked, "Because of the Hero Faction?"
Le Fay nodded. "Mm."
"That kind of thing doesn't matter to me. I value the knowledge in your head more."
As a descendant of King Arthur, Le Fay's talent in magic is undoubtedly top-notch. Coupled with her studies at the Golden Dawn association, her achievements in magic have already surpassed 99% of magic users.
As a magic teacher, Le Fay is the most suitable candidate for him right now.
"Don't rush to refuse. How about you hear my terms?"
"...Okay."
"As long as you teach me magic, I can grant you one request, as long as it doesn't cross my bottom line."
Tatsuma patted the demon sword at his waist. "On a side note, my strength is very formidable. If there's no external interference, I can beat Cao Cao in a one-on-one fight."
Le Fay: "?!"
Beat Cao Cao?
Is that true or false?
Although she was just a newcomer who had recently joined, Le Fay's position within the Hero Faction was not low. Precisely because of this, she knew that Cao Cao possessed the True Longinus.
As the strongest Longinus in legend, it's power is beyond doubt.
Coupled with Cao Cao's own strength, he was fully qualified to contend for the title of the strongest human.
Facing this kind of monster, Tatsuma actually had the confidence to say he could beat him?
"I'm not lying to you."
Just then, Tatsuma's voice sounded again.
"Cao Cao's understanding of me is very limited. Limited to only our first meeting, I am 100% confident I can beat him."
"...I understand."
Although she didn't know if Tatsuma was boasting, Le Fay still agreed after a moment of hesitation.
"As long as it doesn't cross your bottom line, you can grant me any request, is that right?"
"That's right. Whether it's killing a god or taking the Demonic Emperor Sword Gram from me, I can agree unconditionally."
Le Fay shook her head after hearing that and replied, "No, that kind of thing is too difficult to ask. I wouldn't go so far as to issue that kind of commission. Actually, I'd like to ask you to help me look after someone."
"Who?"
"A friend of mine from Golden Dawn."
Le Fay took out a photo.
The photo showed two girls eating at a family restaurant.
Sitting on the left was Le Fay, and on the right was a beautiful girl with long brown hair whose appearance was in no way inferior to Le Fay's.
Le Fay pointed at the other party and introduced, "Her name is Meredith Ordinton, she is a magic user who joined Golden Dawn at the same time as me."
"Although she looks cheerful on the outside, Meredith only has me as a friend. After I leave London and betray Golden Dawn, she will likely be greatly affected. I hope you can take my place and become Meredith's friend after I leave."
Tatsuma asked, "Are there any other requests?"
Le Fay shook her head. "No, that's all."
Tatsuma nodded in agreement. "I understand."
For him, this kind of request was actually more troublesome than slaying gods. However, by spending a little time, there was a way to solve it.
