[There were also other tasks, such as stealing government information or company secrets, making it more of a mercenary role unless you specifically chose assassination jobs.]

[\'Well, I don\'t care about what tasks I choose. My powers are quite versatile, so stealing things can easily be done using presence concealment and invisibility. I can even use identity distortion to blend in and pose as one of the government or company staff.\']

[\'The same goes for assassination. As for bodyguard tasks, nothing could get past my tentacles, which give me 360-degree vision with almost no blind spots.\']

[\'In that case, I should pick a task that offers an avatar crystal as a reward. But so far, tasks like those seem rare; most offer large sums of money or favors instead of avatar crystals.\']

[You were currently inside the Sky High Gang\'s base, browsing through tasks on the Avatar Task Site.]

[Unlike the Avatar Master Site, which was exclusive to avatar masters, the Avatar Task Site only required an invitation to access. Because of that, people without avatars could also access the site, but those who did were not ordinary people—they were either wealthy or influential.]

[These people were the fat sheep who posted the tasks. Avatar masters rarely posted tasks themselves since it cost a lot of money.]

[As you browsed through the tasks on the Avatar Task Site, you soon found one that caught your eye.]

[It was a bodyguard task to protect the young miss of the Solstice Family from an assassination attempt by the Hellhound.]

[Seeing the alias \'Hellhound\' mentioned in the task details, you snickered with interest, "Well, I didn\'t expect the infamous Hellhound would be targeting the only daughter of such an influential family."]

["No wonder no one dared to take the task. From what I\'ve gathered, Hellhound accepted an assassination job that pays one avatar crystal, and his target is Evangeline Aurora Von Solstice, the young miss of the Solstice Family."]

["It doesn\'t take much brainpower to realize that the employer of Hellhound is an enemy of the Solstice Family."]

["Even though the Solstice Family offered rewards far beyond what the assassination task paid to Hellhound, no one dared to accept the bodyguard task. The Death Envoy and Hellhound were notorious avatar masters, and most were too afraid to cross paths with the Hellhound."]

[It was clear that taking on your first task meant going up against an infamous avatar master. Despite the danger, the rewards offered by the Solstice Family were too tempting to pass up.]

[Not only did they offer an avatar crystal, but they also promised a substantial sum of money, a favor from the Solstice Family, and even the potential for a marriage alliance with their young miss.]

[You had already seen the picture of Evangeline Aurora Von Solstice in the task details and couldn\'t deny her beauty.]

[It was evident that the Solstice Family was pulling out all the stops to secure bodyguards capable of handling the Hellhound. They were offering wealth, power, and beauty—all in an effort to protect Evangeline.]

[As the only child of the Solstice Family patriarch and the rightful heir to the family\'s fortune, Evangeline was invaluable. The Solstice Family was willing to pay any price to ensure her safety.]

[Despite the lucrative rewards, no other avatar master was willing to face the Hellhound. But you were different. With the power of eleven absorbed avatar crystals, you had the confidence to take on the challenge.]

["If I fail, I\'ll just have to redo the god simulation. But if I win, I\'ll not only get the avatar crystal offered by the Solstice Family, but also any avatar crystals the Hellhound drops if I manage to kill him."]

[You were certain that a powerhouse like the Hellhound must have absorbed at least one avatar crystal. You didn\'t care how many he had absorbed; as long as he had even one, you\'d be able to secure a minimum of two avatar crystals as loot.]

[With those two avatar crystals, you\'d be able to reach the 13-avatar crystal threshold and complete your avatar\'s evolution.]

[By then, you\'d have the freedom to do whatever you wanted in the Avatar World, with only a few being capable of standing against you.]

[Without hesitation, you accepted the Solstice Family\'s bodyguard task.]

[A few minutes later, you received a phone call from an unknown number.]

[When you answered, you were greeted by the dignified and noble voice of a middle-aged man.]

[After a brief conversation, during which the man provided you with the coordinates of the Solstice Family\'s stronghold, you ended the call.]

[In short, the Solstice Family patriarch was already aware of your identity as the Overlord of Maplewood City, who had unified the eight gangs and destroyed the Bandana Gang.]

[Because of this, the Solstice Family patriarch didn\'t question your intentions in accepting the bodyguard task and considered you credible, despite this being your first task.]

[If you didn\'t have such a reputation, the Solstice Family might have suspected you were a spy sent by the Hellhound to sabotage their efforts.]

[After receiving the coordinates of the Solstice Family\'s stronghold, you were informed that your flight would be arranged using the Solstice Family\'s private jet.]

[After all, the Solstice Family was based in Ehrenfeld, a country located on a different continent, far from Maplewood City.]

[If it had been a matter of traveling between countries on the same continent, you could have managed it using your tentacles. But crossing an ocean would be far too inconvenient.]

[The urgency of the task was clear—the Solstice Family didn\'t know when or how quickly the Hellhound might strike to assassinate Evangeline.]

[Without wasting any time, you made your way to the Maplewood City airport, where the Solstice Family\'s private jet awaited your arrival.]

[Boarding the jet, you set off for Ehrenfeld.]
