Chapter 438 Merchant Old Man
9 A.M
After getting ready, I left the room and walked out of the building. Then I took long strides towards the transport facility.
A few minutes later,
I boarded a magic aircraft filled with people. Compared to monster carriages. This magic artifact is a lot safer.
But not every time you can get to use the aircraft. After glancing around, I quickly found my seat to sit down.
If the seats are filled, then the magic aircraft is ready to take off. After a few minutes, a stranger sat beside me.
At first, I didn\'t mind him and closed my eyes.
"Vincent Carey"
When the words reached my ears. I jolted awake.
Who?
When I turned around, I found the person sitting right next to me was looking at me.
"Don\'t be surprised. Senior Gilbert has sent me to guide you," The middle-aged man said.
I let go of my hanging heart after hearing his words. So he was the one who was going to help me.
"Thanks"
"What\'s your name?" I asked.
The middle-aged man smiled mysteriously.
He replied, "You can call me Gutt."
Hearing that, a strange glint flashes in my eyes. I realized he doesn\'t want to reveal his information.
But I have the system. So I decided to probe him.
"Probe the target\'s details," I said to the system.

The next moment, the status panel appeared. Looking at the row of information, I sighed inside. As expected he is a level-5 wizard. But he is not strong enough to protect me.
Senior Gilbert didn\'t know my changes.
"What are you looking at?" Gutt asked.
"Ah, it\'s nothing," I replied.
Hearing that I returned to reality. Then I returned to my usual position and closed my eyes.
But my heart was not calm. Unless we leave the borders of the Capital City, anything can happen in between.
I just hope that bloodline wizards don\'t catch up with us.
Shortly after, the magic aircraft took off.
One hour later,
The aircraft arrived at Dragon City and landed on the platform. When the aircraft came to a half.
Passengers start to leave. We both walked out a few minutes later. After crossing several streets, we came to an isolated location to talk.
"Senior Gutt, what now?" I asked.
"How am I going to reach Tolu Country?" I asked back-to-back questions.
Gutt Brown investigated the surroundings before turning toward Vincent.
"I heard from Senior Gilbert. There are high-level wizards in our academy who can\'t wait for you to die," He said.
My expression darkened. If not for an ally, I would have turned him into minced meat. I\'m already worried about the bloodline guys.
But he is not doing any good either.
Gutt Brown quickly changed his tone. He said, "Actually, there is only one way for us to reach the Tolu country."
Hearing that, my eyes lit up with surprise. Finally, he is coming back to the topic.
"We should travel together with merchant guys. If we do then it will be difficult for others to track our whereabouts," Gutt added further.
A look of understanding dawned upon me. The merchant guys are related to the merchant union. They do business across the country.
I heard some of them had secret channels to travel. Which is not commercially used by the government.
Don\'t tell me. He is referring to that.
A lot of doubts appeared in my heart.
"Let\'s go, I\'ll take you to that place," Gutt said.
Then he led me towards a location. On the way, he didn\'t ask any questions. Since he is trusted by Senior Gilbert. I don\'t want to inquire too much.
20 minutes later,
We arrived in front of a small mansion. Not knowing what? I slowly followed behind Gutt.
For this operation. I want to hide my identity. But this person Gutt had already made arrangements. So I can only follow him now.
When we walked inside the mansion. A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. The mansion is empty without any household items.
At the same time, an old man wearing white plain clothes arrived. Seeing him, Gutt walked forward to greet him.
But when I used the system to check his panel. I found that the old man is a lower-level wizard. He was simply an ant in front of us.
"Vincent, come here," Gutt said.
Hearing that I walked to them.
"Meet this old man. His name is Pinto. He was a merchant who was going to escort us to the Tolu Country."
"He has made fake identities for us. We are going to be his subordinate until we reach Tolu Country," Gutt explained to me.
But my expression turned weird. We are going to act as subordinates of this low-level wizard.
What a turnaround! I wonder whether this old man knows our true identity. But looking at Gutt\'s expression. I think he doesn\'t.
Meanwhile, the old man was delighted. Not long ago, he was fortunate to meet this rich man. The man named Gutt had bought expensive items from him.
So when he asked for help. He didn\'t refute it. His eyes then fell on this young kid. "Is it his illegitimate kid or what?"
But when he recalled their destination. He made up his theory. The Tolu country is filled with corrupt officials. Maybe this kid\'s birth mother is from the Tolu Country.
The old man started to believe his imagination. Maybe he can earn a rich amount after this successful trip.
At the same time, I don\'t like the look I\'m getting from the old man. When I turned to look at Gutt. He is all smiles.
Seeing that my mouth twitched. Then the old man led us to our room.
After showing the room, the old man left hurriedly.
"Here, take this potion and consume it now. This high-grade body transfiguration potion is efficient. We are going to leave tonight. So this potion might take some time to adjust," Gutt said.
I took the potion from him and entered my room. Looking at this black potion, I feel strange.
"System, probe the target," I said to the system, looking at the potion.
[Ding! The host\'s command is recognized.]
[Target is detected.]
[Potion: Transfiguration. Time limit: 30 days.]
Seeing the row of information. I let go of my doubt. Then I opened the cork and drank it one at a time.
The next moment, I feel black charcoal running down my throat. Followed by the strong stomach churning. I\'m enduring it.
30 minutes later,
I felt the changes. When I touched my head. There was no hair. My head was completely bald. Feeling stupified. I hurriedly found the mirror inside the table drawer.
When I saw my look in the mirror. A look of disbelief appeared on my face. My hair was gone. My cheeks now looked chubby.
What the hell is it? I dislike my transformation.
Suddenly, I decided to check the status. I doubt whether it had negative effects on my power.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

The status panel appeared. My eyes immediately scanned the details. Seeing that nothing changed. I sighed in relief. This is the first time for me to use the transfiguration potion.
I didn\'t find any resemblance to my original appearance. This is a great way to hide the original identity.
I wonder what Senior Gutt\'s transformation looks like. A strong curiosity appeared in my heart.
