The Martial Unity

That wasn't the only information that Rui got from the Beggar's Sect. A separate document that he had received from Sian was related to the available missions in the Saiful Region to get him started.

Although the contract that he signed with the Beggar's Sect gave him remarkable latitude in regard to the schedule at which he wanted to fulfill his commission payment, he understood that it was best to reinforce their agreement by beginning immediately. It was a way of demonstrating that he was fully serious about their transaction and that they needed to get started on fulfilling their agreement of the deal.

Furthermore, he hadn't forgotten that the most important thing to him at the moment was gaining some experience as a Martial Senior. That priority trumped all others at the moment, thus fulfilling some missions was also in his general interests.

He opened the document only to find that the first page warned him that the document would incinerate itself the moment that he closed it.

'Strict.' Rui mused.

The Beggar's Sect needed to take such measures to ensure that its secrets never got leaked. Unlike the previous document which only contained the information that Rui purchased, this document contained sensitive information about the internal missions and operations that the Beggar's Sect needed to complete. They could not allow this information to spread.

Rui didn't mind the measure. Once he read it a single time, he would never need to read it ever again. Thus he quickly skimmed through it, before closing it.

FSSSHHH!

It instantly combusted into strangely transparent flames that didn't burn anything else, completely turning the entire document into trash.

Thorough, as expected of the Beggar's Sect.
