! Recruitnt Notice !
An "weather-beaten" wooden sign was placed at the entrance of the "Recruitnt Channel," adorned with rather exaggerated lettering, with various exclamation and question marks in the background.
! Our circus currently has nurous positions vacant, urgently recruiting social idlers (of course, employed individuals looking to switch are also welco??(^_-), but there are no privileges here, whether you are an ordinary person or a noble from the Source Plague Area, the recruitnt standards will not change!)
The positions currently being recruited are as follows, listed by their level of difficulty:
1. Receptionist (Easy) - primarily responsible for audience reception, discipline managent at the observation platform, maintaining order during the circus’s operation, and strictly punishing those who do not adhere to the rules when necessary. Additionally, responsible for the cleaning of the venue after performances, ensuring the circus is absolutely clean.
(If one could remain as a receptionist for fifty years, with each month’s evaluation never dipping below ’unsatisfactory,’ they would be promoted to the circus’s managent level.)
2. Kitchen staff (Easy) - responsible for delivering various types of food to the kitchen, washing, disinfecting, cutting, packaging, and all kitchen cleaning duties.
(If one could work for fifty years without a single negative review, they would be promoted to kitchen managent.)
3. Ordinary mber of the circus troupe (dium) - assigned to the respective 1st, 2nd, or 3rd circus troupe based on individual traits, required to train and rehearse daily.
(If one could stay in the troupe for ten years and perform without a single mistake, they could be promoted to a senior mber and compete for the position of troupe leader.)
4. Beast Cage Manager (dium) - responsible for the managent and feeding of animals in the beast area.
(If one could survive more than ten years in the position with no health issues occurring in the managed animals, they would be promoted to intern beast tar.)
5. Apprentice Clown (Difficult) - assists the circus’s main clown and assistant clown in various bizarre performances, occasionally using oneself as a ’human prop.’
(If one could persist in this position for five years, they could beco an assistant clown and have the opportunity to compete for the role of main or assistant clown.)
6. Magician Assistant (Extrely Difficult) - Candidates with good looks and deanor, possessing abilities in illusion techniques, magic arts, and sleight of hand, can join after passing the magician team’s review.
(After performing in ten magic shows and making no mistakes, ’collecting’ a sufficient amount of audience ’emotion’ will qualify for permanent status, and subsequently, the circus will provide opportunities for solo performances.)
... (Besides these six, there are many other positions recruiting)
! As long as you pass the recruitnt review, you would beco a mber of the circus, receive absolute protection, and have no material worries. The circus also provides training services through different channels, assisting mbers in "Newborn Transmission," searching for paths, and so on.
??(^_-) We warmly welco everyone to apply and join our big family.

Having read the recruitnt notice, William almost had his answer, but he didn’t rush in, instead turning his head towards the audience channel to look at the "Audience Rules."
The content there was also interesting.
1. Any personnel accepted by the invitation of the circus can enter as an audience mber, without any assessnt or fees.
2. After entering, please find an empty seat imdiately, be seated within five minutes, and maintain a proper posture as much as possible.
3. If the previous show has not ended after seating, you may choose to close your eyes. Once the next show starts, you must watch the entire show, and the deviation from the field of view for each performance must not exceed 5%.
4. Shouting and changing seats are prohibited. Any physiological needs can be addressed by calling a receptionist, who will help resolve them.
5. Audiences who adhere to the above conditions and watch the performance for more than six hours can receive a generous reward and a recomndation letter from the circus. A recomndation letter allows you access to most organizations and Source Plague Areas with a permanent identity.
"Very tempting terms indeed, just watching a show can provide an opportunity to change your identity... But how many can actually leave the circus. Rumors seem that no one has ever left the circus, neither audience mbers nor applicants.
Obviously, these six-hour intake requirents are extrely hard to et,
How are audiences who fail to et the six hours treated? Sent to the kitchen, or thrown away like trash? Or turned into various props for performances?"
While William was interested, he was not prepared to waste these six hours.
Even if he passed, it wouldn’t an much to him, as he could already visit most Source Plague Areas without needing a recomndation letter. What he wanted was a deeper interaction with the circus, to obtain information about "unknown pathways."
He entered the empty "Recruitnt Channel," stepping into the circus tent that resembled a dark castle.
Unlike the Audience, who went directly to the Observation Platform inside the Circus, lifting the black curtain revealed a pitch-black passage resembling a mouth,
Plip Plop~ Leather shoes stepped on a tongue-covered floor slick with saliva, and as he reached the position of the dangling tonsils, below him was the Endless Abyss.
Just as William hesitated whether to jump into it,
a black and white stocking quietly stretched to his back, and during this process, William was completely unaware, not even noticing in his grape’s panoramic vision.
A gentle push.
This piece, like penetrating clothing, stuck directly to his back, making him distinctly feel the stocking and the sole of a foot touching his spine, cold and soft.
"Catherine!"
By the ti William realized it, he had already fallen into the abyss ford by the esophageal structure, continuing to drop.
Looking up, all he could see was a black and white foot perched on the edge of the tongue coating.
"I didn’t notice at all? Compared to the nightmare incident back then, I have beco much stronger, and my Perception has improved... This is not a nightmare, and yet Catherine managed to approach
completely concealed.
Is it because of the Circus’s environnt interference, or has Catherine already completed her Path?"
While William was thinking, there was a Duang sound, and his body fell into a tal cage

One by one, spotlights in front of William lit up, illuminating ten recruiters, their faces randomly covered with a playing card mask, or what’s called as ’Poker Face’.
The points were all below ten, with random suits.
"New applicant, which position would you like to apply for? Currently, our Receptionist and Circus are severely understaffed, and the application requirents are relatively lowered, suggesting you choose these two."
"I would like to apply for the Magician’s Assistant."
Upon this declaration, the flowers and numbers on the recruiters’ faces began to move chaotically.
"Are you sure? This position hasn’t been successfully filled in the last ten years, extrely challenging, and once you choose to apply, you cannot change it."
"I am sure."
"Then let’s proceed with the preliminary test for the Magician’s Assistant;
strip off your clothing and show us your image."
However, William did not take off his outer garnt,
He rely removed his scarf and placed it at his feet.
Adjusting his tie, he made a gentlemanly bow.
"My clothing is my skin, this is my expression of image."
Facing William’s response, the recruiters nodded to each other, "Please show us a performance of magical nature, be it Illusion Technique, Magic, or manual skill."
"I have already perford, haven’t you noticed yet?"
As the recruiters looked at each other in confusion, William, trapped between the iron cage, snapped his fingers
Snap!
In the blink of an eye, he was already standing in front of the recruiters, hands leaning on the table, his smile beneath slowly fading silver hair, not knowing when he had escaped from the cage.
Here, William used two thods, the Vision’s illusion technique combined with the newly learned Newborn Transmission, which hardly consud any energy for this simple ’escape magic’.
"Not... bad, the preliminary condition is passed! Please follow us now, you will go to the Magic Area to undergo the real employnt scrutiny."
