After what happened, I was even more motivated to become stronger.
So when the next day came, I was getting ready to head into another dungeon.

But before that could happen, there was a letter that came for me.
"Whoâs the letter from?" My mother asked when she handed it to me in the morning, but there was nothing that I could say in response. After all, there was no name on it and there was nothing that identified who sent this letter to me.
That was until a text came.
It was surprising that someone as old as him was able to text, but it was my in name master who sent this text.
It was to ask if I received a letter yet.
Since he was asking about this, it was clear that he was the one that sent this letter to me. Enjoy new tales from novelbuddy
I hadnât even had the time to read what the letter was about when he already sent me this text.
So I just said, "Itâs from someone that I work with."
My mother raised a brow, but she didnât ask anything else as she went back to make breakfast.
When I opened the letter, I couldnât help cursing, "That crazy old man!"
Since I wasnât able to control myself, my voice was a bit loud and my mother poked her head out from the kitchen to ask, "Whatâs going on? Did something happen?"
An awkward look appeared on my face before I said, "Itâs nothing, I was just reading something and I couldnât help myself."
She looked at me with one brow raised as if she didnât believe me, but I just looked back at her with a poker face. So in the end, she had no choice but to leave matters as they were and head back into the kitchen.
The moment that she turned around and went back in, I immediately turned my attention back to the letter that was in front of me.
After a moment of silence, I pulled out my phone and called the number that Mu Gong left me, but all that happened was that I was left on the ringtone. No matter how many times I tried to call him, he just never seemed to pick up.
"Crazy old man!" I couldnât help cursing again, but I did it under my breath instead of shouting out loud like I did before.
Since he wasnât picking up, there was only one thing that I could do.
I had to find someone that had information about what was written on this letter.
After thinking about it, I said, "Iâm heading out."
"Where are you going? Breakfast is almost ready." My mother said from the kitchen.
"I have some business to take care of." I said before running out without even looking back.
What I didnât see wasâŠ
"Leave him. That child is old enough to make his own decision, thereâs no need for you to stick your nose in his business. Just leave him alone and heâll be fine." A voice came from the dining room that had a trace of pride in it.
"Humph, all you know to do is read your newspaper all day." Though she complained, Lin Fanâs mother didnât say anything else as she went back into the kitchen.

With the Irregular badge, I would have been able to easily make my way into the Explorer Association to see the president. But that wasnât what I did, instead I went to see An Xue Yun at the receptionist desk.
Even if I had this badge, it wasnât as if I could just barge into the office of the president.
"Is the president in?" I asked her as soon as I came over.
An Xue Yun was surprised since she hadnât been expecting to see me, but she eventually gave a nod in response. Then she came out from behind the desk and seemed to want to lead me over to the stairs, but I stopped her.
"Wait, thereâs someone else coming."
As soon as my voice fell, someone ran over to where we were.
When she came over, the first thing that she did was stand between me and An Xue Yun as if she was making sure that there was distance between us.
Seeing this, An Xue Yun just gave a disdainful snort as if she looked down on this person.
The moment that Iris saw this, it seemed like she wanted to start a fight with her.
I just pretended like I didnât see anything since I didnât want to get involved. Eventually, they seemed to come back to their senses and just turned away from each other with a snort.
An Xue Yun also looked at me as if she was questioning why I invited Iris as well, but I ignored her as well.
With An Xue Yun leading the way, we eventually reached the office of the president.
"What isâŠ" His voice trailed off before he said, "Oh, itâs just you guys. Whatâs wrong? Werenât you just here yesterday?"
He really didnât have the prestige of a president when he said this. He said it in a way as if he just wanted to slack off.
That made a bitter smile appear on my lips.
But An Xue Yun seemed used to this as she stepped forward and slapped his table before saying, "Heâs here for a consultation. Act like a proper president for the Explorer Association already."
A bitter smile appeared on An Longâs face when he heard this.
It was just like the bitter smile that I had revealed earlier.
But there was nothing that he could say in response to his daughter.
All he could do was sit up properly and ask, "So, what is it that you wanted to consult me about?"
"Itâs this."
After saying this, I took out the letter that I got this morning and placed it on the table in front of him.
At the top of this letter read "invitation".
