The next day, Leyton arrived at the Executor Squad's office very early. No one else had arrived yet.

"Whoa~ I'm actually the first one here today," Leyton shrugged.

He casually dragged a chair over and sat down. Bugs Bunny was sprawled on the desk like a salted fish, his entire rabbit face filled with a sense of utter despair.

"It's just a bath, is it really that bad?" Leyton said, looking at the rabbit who had turned into a salted fish.

"Of course it's bad!" Bugs Bunny retorted loudly.

"Who told you to dig in the dirt so diligently yesterday, getting mud all over yourself?" Leyton said.

"You didn't tell me that getting mud on myself meant getting a bath!" Bugs Bunny said, feeling very wronged.

Leyton was speechless at this rabbit. He even managed to say the words "getting a bath."

"It's okay, you know now. Practice makes perfect. You'll get used to being bathed in the future," Leyton comforted the rabbit without any sincerity.

"There'll be more baths in the future?" Bugs Bunny was shocked.

He buried his face directly into the desk, as if his entire rabbit life had become bleak.

"You haven't had a bath before, have you?" Leyton asked, looking at the rabbit suspiciously.

"I can groom my own fur, isn't that good enough?" Bugs Bunny said righteously.

Hearing the rabbit's words, Leyton suddenly had the urge to press him into the water and wash him again.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Bugs Bunny seemed to sense the malice and quickly shrank his neck.

"From now on, you must take a bath every few days," Leyton said in a serious tone.

"No! It'll kill a rabbit," Bugs Bunny cried miserably, lying on the desk.

"What are you guys discussing? So intense?" Captain Icanton arrived at the office at this time.

Seeing the captain arrive, Leyton stopped arguing with Bugs Bunny about taking a bath.

"Captain, good morning! I'm educating this rabbit to bathe frequently!" Leyton greeted the captain cheerfully.

"Hmm, do you have something you want to talk about today? You seem so excited," Captain Icanton said, puzzled.

"Am I being that obvious? Hehe, I wanted to ask you, Captain, about applying for the next sequence potion," Leyton answered honestly.

"Hmm? Potion? I must remind you that you can only consume the next stage of potion after you have fully mastered your existing potion, otherwise the probability of losing control will increase significantly," Captain Icanton reminded him.

Originally, Captain Icanton wanted to say that the probability of losing control was almost 100%, but thinking that Leyton had become a Beyonder by swallowing the characteristics raw, he changed his words.

"Hmm, I know, Captain," Leyton nodded to show that he understood.

After a moment of silence, Leyton said, "Captain, do you know about the Acting Method?"

Leyton decided to tell the captain about the Acting Method directly. As a Beyonder who had already reached Sequence 6, Leyton was sure that his captain already had some theories and understanding of the Acting Method, if not outright knowing.

"Acting Method?" Captain Icanton pondered upon hearing this word.

After a good while, he looked up at Leyton and said, "Is this a way to quickly master the potion?"

"Yes, by interpreting the name of the potion, obtaining its core symbol and specific imagery, and aligning with it in daily life, summarizing the Acting Principles," Leyton briefly explained what the Acting Method was.

Then he continued, "This can effectively reduce the risk of losing control, reduce the impact of the spiritual imprint in the Beyonder characteristics, and accelerate the digestion of the potion, allowing Beyonders to better use their Beyonder abilities."

"I see, I had some guesses about this, but not as detailed as you said. So, you have already digested the Beyonder characteristics in your body?" Captain Icanton asked curiously.

"Yes, because of some accidents, I aligned with the Reader's Acting Principles, and the characteristics in my body were digested by more than half at once. Coupled with the previous accumulation, it was completely digested," Leyton did not elaborate on what kind of accident caused his potion to be digested so quickly.

Captain Icanton was surprised at first, then his expression became one of understanding. He had already imagined a reasonable explanation for Leyton in his mind.

Leyton was also secretly glad that he had been in contact with that angel of the Church a lot recently. Captain Icanton should have attributed the accident to that angel.

"Hmm, you can write an application for me later, it should be approved soon," Captain Icanton nodded and said.

"Okay, Captain!" After receiving the captain's words, Leyton's previously worried heart also relaxed.

"Do you know the Acting Principles of the Polymath?" Captain Icanton asked.

"Ah? Polymath? I'm not sure, but it should be related to the number of abilities to see, remember, and imitate," Leyton guessed.

"Hmm, I also have this idea, but it shouldn't be limited to that. Perhaps it is also related to the amount of knowledge analyzed and mastered," Captain Icanton said, expressing his understanding.

Leyton listened to the captain's words, thought for a while, and nodded, "Hmm, very likely."

However, Leyton didn't understand why the captain suddenly said this to him. He hadn't been promoted to Sequence 7 yet, so why was he talking about the Acting Principles of Sequence 6?

After the captain walked into his office, Leyton sat in his chair and thought for a while before he understood.

"Could it be that the captain is telling me the Acting Principles of the Polymath? As compensation or a thank you for telling him about the Acting Method?"

After figuring out the captain's meaning, Leyton understood that the content they had just discussed was the Acting Principles of the Polymath that the captain had summarized.

"This gift is really precious. I can avoid a lot of detours when I reach Sequence 6," Leyton said in a low voice.

Bugs Bunny, who was lying on the desk on the side like a salted fish who had lost his dreams, also heard the conversation between Leyton and the captain just now.

"Did you let me plant grass on the balcony for acting as well?" Bugs Bunny asked curiously.

"That's right, but I don't think the balcony alone can satisfy the word 'cultivation'. In a few days, I will find you a piece of land that can be cultivated, so you can plant some crops on it," Leyton nodded and said.

"What are crops? Isn't it planting grass?" Bugs Bunny heard another word he didn't understand.

"Cultivation should also have a harvest. How can just planting grass be considered a harvest?" Leyton said.

"But, the grass I plant is my food, isn't that a harvest?" Bugs Bunny asked, puzzled.

Leyton was silent for a moment before he realized that this guy was a rabbit, and he shouldn't look at his questions from a human perspective.

"Uh, that's right in that case, let's plant a little of everything and see what the effect is," Leyton agreed with Bugs Bunny's words.

Picking up a blank piece of paper and a quill pen on the table and writing an application for the Sequence 7 Knowledge Keeper potion, Leyton looked at the potion application he had just written and recalled the information about the Knowledge Keeper in his mind.

Sequence 7: Knowledge Keeper, also known as "Detective."

Belongs to the "profession" that focuses on knowledge mastery and reasoning ability, with good combat and equipment usage skills. Can use extraordinary means to analyze and restore events that have occurred in a certain area.

Leyton had some guesses about the Acting Principles of the Knowledge Keeper.

Knowledge Keeper should mean guarding knowledge, but this sequence also has the title of Detective. Although it is very suitable for the detective's abilities in this sequence, it should also be related to acting.

Regarding detectives, Leyton's understanding is that they can use their knowledge reasonably and fully to achieve their goals, which is more inclined to the use of knowledge.

"I just don't know which of these two guesses is more correct, or if both are?" Leyton guessed in his heart.

He sighed softly, temporarily put aside his guesses about the Knowledge Keeper, and then Leyton took the potion application he had written and gave it to Captain Icanton.

"The potion application for the Knowledge Keeper has been submitted. When the rabbit has digested the potion of the Cultivator, it will be almost time to leave Matan, first go to the sea and then to Backlund," Leyton made plans for the future in his heart.
