Fabian was thrown out of the private prison of the dungeon by the Black Sea Knights, like a piece of waste, wandering alone in the Black Sea.

His mother handed him over to the Black Sea Knight in order to preserve the family, and Fabian didn't know where else to go.

"I can help you. Just when he was at the most confused and uneasy in his life, a strange voice sounded in his head.

"Who!?" Fabian panicked, and the muscles of the snake's tail from the waist and abdomen down were all tense, like a frightened cobra.

"I know the insecurity and doubts in your heart, my child. The lost lamb needs guidance, and you need help too. ”

"Who the hell are you? Get out of my head!"

This high-level spell that could invade the spirit and heart of the target exacerbated Fabian's uneasiness, he didn't know who the other party was or what purpose it was - he had no use value.

"You shouldn't be afraid of me, you should learn to trust me, I can help you ......"

The voice continued to whisper in Fabian's head, with a strange buzzing sound, like a damn fly or a mosquito he'd seen in the swamp, distracting.

"Officially a mage, a secret water elemental spell, heir to the Klose family...... Many, many more, I can help you. ”

Heir, the word that Fabian envied, slammed into his heart like a boulder.

The flies and mosquitoes just now whimpered and kept repeating the phrase "heir of the Klose family", whispering in his head.

His heart was moved.

Having nothing made him fearless, and even if it was an evil god who was talking to him now, he was willing to try.

"What price do I have to pay?" asked Fabian formally after less than ten seconds of hesitation.

"You don't have to give anything, just play a game with me and you can get what you want, everything. ”

"What game?"

"See that herring 10 yards away from you?"

"See. ”

It was a newly grown herring with a blue-black dorsal side and silvery-white ventral side, with a beautiful streamlined body.

"Kill it. ”

"What?"

This time, in the face of Fabian's confusion, the voice ignored it.

Time slowed unusually in Fabian's mind, and he was thinking.

Eventually, he decided to take the first step.

Fabian stretched out his right hand and chanted a spell at the herring, shooting a blue light from his fingertips.

Water Elemental Faction Spell, Frost Ray.

The herring, which is not even a magical beast, naturally could not resist a spell, and under the effect of frost rays, its body stiffened, and then died.

"You got 10 gold. ”

The strange voice sounded in Fabian's head again, with relief and approval, and a little encouragement.

Through the magic net, Fabian discovered that there were indeed 10 more gold coins in his personal account, and the time was 3 seconds ago, at the moment when he killed the herring with a spell.

As if sensing his surprise, the voice explained, "This is the game, and you get a reward for every game you complete." There are twelve more similar games, and the further you go, the higher the difficulty and the greater the rewards. It's a fair game, are you willing to continue?"

"I do. ”

Although he promised the other party from the bottom of his heart and did not make any sound, Fabian still heard the hoarseness and madness of his voice.

"Trust me, you'll never regret your decision today. The second task is to eat the herring directly. ”

As a sea tribe living in the ocean, Naga's recipe includes a wide variety of fish, with sashimi being the most common food.

But eating a raw herring without removing its scales and guts was still a challenge for Fabian.

"The reward for the second mission is 100 gold. ”

The 100 golden coins gave Fabian the motivation to keep going.

He grabbed the herring and tore at the frozen body of the fish with his teeth, holding back the intense vomiting and indescribable nausea, swallowing the whole herring into his stomach in one bite, including the scales and internal organs.

The number in the personal account jumped upwards and there were 100 more gold coins.

"The third task, buy a teleportation ticket from the Black Sea to the North Sea tomorrow afternoon, and reward 500 gold coins. ”

The Klose family is located in the North Sea, where there is also a family of bloodline warlocks known in the kingdom, the Schulz family.

......

On April 14, Fabian returned to the Klose family.

In the past day, he has completed twelve tasks assigned to him by strange voices one after another.

From the simple task of killing herring, eating herring raw, and solemnly telling ten people "I'm an idiot" to beating a blind Naga, throwing a Naga corpse in a designated location, hunting a vampire manta ray, and other difficult tasks that increasingly tested his endurance.

Along with the increase in difficulty, there are also considerable mission rewards.

A special spell that can only be passed down among the magic nobles, the Boiling Blood Spell, and up to 50,000 gold coins.

"What's the last mission?"

Now, instead of posting tasks in that weird voice, Fabian has learned to take the initiative to receive tasks on his own, driven by desire.

"The thirteenth mission, stuff the dagger you just got into Mira's heart. ”

"Reward, 50,000 gold coins!"

Even if it was Fabian, who had just been handed over to the Black Sea Knight by his mother, he would not accept it, at least not immediately, such a task that can only be described as absurd.

But under the spurring of the previous twelve missions and the gold coins, Fabian's dignity, morality, and values have long since collapsed into ruins.

And the goddess of the sea is on it, that's a full 50,000 gold coins, the sum of the rewards for his first twelve tasks.

If he hadn't accepted the challenge of the Thirteen Missions, he would never have been able to access such a huge amount of wealth in his life.

Fabian gasped as he tried to find a reason to convince himself to refuse, even one, but he didn't.

The magic apprentice's eyes had turned into snake pupils, and with a ferocious glow of greed, he walked towards Mira Klose, his mother's room.

Fabian was so excited and confused that Fabian didn't notice the family anomaly, such as why he didn't meet any family members on the way to his mother's room, as if none of them existed.

Ten minutes later, Fabian pushed open the door, and her mother, as the mission said, lay on the bed.

She may have fallen asleep or passed out, and the only thing Fabian knows for sure is that she is still alive.

At least she was alive until he plunged the dagger into the other's heart.

Fabian raised the dagger in his hand and slowly stabbed at Mira.

Just before the dagger was about to fall on Mira's chest, what little conscience was left stopped Fabian's movements.

He hesitated, and then he died.

Because Mira, who had closed his eyes as the goal of his thirteenth mission, not only opened his eyes, but also plunged an ice pick made of magic into his heart.

Before his consciousness was in chaos and he fell into darkness, Fabian heard a whisper of joy and madness suppressed in his mother's throat: "The thirteenth mission, completed!"
