When Abel returned from the Dark World, Bartoli immediately reported to him.
"I have a message from Master Joyce. His messenger came to say that elite wizard Nigel has appointed a mission just for you! Apparently, he's willing to pay a lot of points for it."
"What does he want me to do?"
The first thing that Abel thought about was the 5,000-point forging mission that he saw at the Wizard Union building. That seemed a little different from what he was hearing now. Back then, someone was trying to get him to build a magic staff. While a magic staff wasn't exactly expensive, the buyer usually had to pay in methods other than just currencies. To be more specific, the creator of the staff might be rewarded by gaining special favours in certain places. Or, they would gain some reputation for being the "helpers" of some significant figures.
