With the decision having been made by Arthur, the goddess moved quickly.
>Player Arzhur has been Blessed by the Mistress of the Beasts!Player Arzhur has obtained the Blessing of Understanding!
>The presence of the Trickster who likes Plays is gone
>The presence of the Mistress of the Beasts is goneThe Trickster who likes Plays reveals his presence again
"But didn't I reject your offer in favor of the Mistress of Beasts?" Arthur replied, still wary of the deity.
"But why? What do you wish for in exchange?" Arthur knew it wouldn't be something simple.
"Fun?" Arthur could tell that the deity was hinting at something and also had an idea about what it might be.
He went silent for a minute and thought about it, before giving a reply.
"So I just need to do whatever I want to, and as long as you find it to be fun, you'll let me use it?" Arthur questioned.
"Hmm… alright." While it was still risky, Arthur reckoned he may as well take it. 'There might actually be more trouble if I deny Loki after all this. He won't be pleased and might just cause trouble for me without me even knowing it.' He thought.
Arthur finally extended his hand and touched the square sheet of skin that was floating in front of him.

"This…" As soon as Arthur saw the information, he was utterly shocked.
While there was some information shown when Loki was presenting the veil to Arthur, it was not showing the details. There was only a vague description of what the veil could do.
But now that the exact effects of it were shown, Arthur almost couldn't believe it.
"This… this isn't even at the level of a legendary item!" Arthur was absolutely sure of it.
Items that could change the appearance of a player were uncommon right now, but many would appear as the game progressed. Not just that, but there were also skills and magic that could do the same.
But items that could change the player's name were quite rare even back then.
As for an item that could disguise the class of a player?
There were simply none.
Class was something that was absolute for the most part. Once a player got a class, they could only switch to a new better class or advance their class into a stronger version.
Then there was the information about the Veil of thousand skins itself.
'This is a warning isn't it?' Arthur was sure that Loki had placed it there.
It was a warning for what could happen to those that tried to go against the chaotic god.
Players would experience that themselves in the future. After all, there was no lack of people who would want to try their hands at fighting a god. Of course, a direct fight might be impossible, but making them lose out was still possible.
Then there were players that wanted revenge against the various deities. Whether it be due to their past actions or some quest, they would eventually do it.
Loki was one of the bigger targets since he liked to mess things up for the players from time to time.
'Even one of the top 10 guilds from back then collapsed because Loki targeted them.' Arthur recalled.
It was a huge incident back then and had shaken up all the other guilds too. It had made them wary about the god and most had decided to simply stay away from it.
It led to a reshuffling and allowed another guild to take the place of the guild that had fallen to the whims of Loki.
'I just… have to make sure I don't piss him off.' Arthur thought to himself. "But then again… it's not like our goals don't align." Considering his plans for the future, Arthur realized there will be chaos created by his actions eventually.
"Guess the trickster will really get to see some fun things…" Arthur muttered while staring at the veil.
He brought the veil closer to his face, prompting it to move on its own.
~SMACK~
The veil stuck to Arthur's face automatically, covering it entirely.
'Ugh! This…' Arthur's eyes, nose, and face were all covered by the veil making it hard for him to see or breathe.
But this was merely the start, as the veil started to grow!
