Even though all those entering the Void Corridor this time are Level 1 Mages, Merrick does not belittle himself. He is confident but does not blindly underestimate others, which is why he seeks to ally with Duke.
Duke didn't hesitate much and said, "Okay."
Merrick hasn't completely completed the Liquidation Wizard process yet, and he's just starting out, progressing much slower than Duke.
His main studies focus on Curse Element magic, and he seeks a very special Crystal Core, one with a cursed nature.
This Crystal Core is extremely rare, so rare that even money can't buy it. One can only attempt to find it by entering the Void Corridor.
This is also the reason Merrick intends to enter the Void Corridor. Otherwise, for general attribute Crystal Cores, he wouldn't need to go to the Void Corridor and could obtain them through Master Land's network and connections.
