Chapter 153: Meeting

[A/N: read the previous Chapter, it is updated]

As the people sat down and showed their surprise over the boulder’s comfort, Dazmira of Razorshade Syndicate said while smiling, "Mr. Sirius, you said you would hold an auction when there’s more audience."

"Indeed, Mr. Sirius. We remember that." Zomei of the Jadelight clan chuckled. "Please tell us you are going to hold it now."

Mr. Sirius heartily laughed. "I can if I want to. But before that, I wonder if your forces in the higher-ranked world sent all possible reinforcements here? Because I think the current number might not be quite enough."

[Jibril: Really? But there are already many, and each of them has seven Sovereign-rank Monsters...]

’Nah, I am just bullshitting. I don’t know if it’s enough or not to fight against the calamity, but if I had to bet, I would say it’s not enough.’

"Mr. Sirius. None of our forces has sent the full reinforcement here yet. More will come later when they are ready." Rozek of Magnus Coin Consortium, the official leader of the branch of this world, answered with a smile.

"Do you know about this calamity, Mr. Sirius? Perhaps you have seen a similar event in your travels?" one of the peak Sovereign-rank Tamers of Blazebound Sect asked curiously.

"I have not seen it before. It’s just that the way that demon explained, I thought the numbers I am seeing might not be enough." Mr. Sirius smiled. "Well, I have recently found a treasure island with two people living there two days ago while I was traveling around, and took them under my wing to make them my assistants so I can work better in the coming calamitous times."

Everyone was surprised.

Who were those two lucky people?

"With that said, I will hold my auction when my assistants finish their training, which should take less than half an hour. So, how about we kill some time?"

Mr. Sirius smiled.

"Kill time? What do you propose, Mr. Sirius?"

"Singing and Dancing?" Mr. Sirius grinned.

"Hahaha..."

Everyone laughed and smiled at the ridiculous proposal.

"Well, jokes aside, I am going to get rather precious resources, which are similar to these."

Waving his hand, John took out three fruits.

Those who had seen them getting eaten by John instantly recognized them.

"Wait, Mr. Sirius...you said similar to these fruits..." Hall Master Varek’s eyes glinted. "Are you saying you have a Sovereign-rank version of these fruits?"

The other Sovereign-rank Tamers who didn’t know about that day were promptly informed by those who knew, shocking them.

"That’s correct. I will get my hands on fruits that can instantly make an early-stage Sovereign-rank Tamer reach the peak of Sovereign-rank."

"T-That..."

Absolute silence descended.

Everyone was dumbfounded because such a resource was absolutely huge!

Personal growth was most important, and it was especially so when they were going to fight against frenzied monsters of the calamity that wiped out almost all humans a thousand years ago!

All those early and mid-stage Sovereign-rank Tamers practically looked frenzied.

If they reached the peak of Sovereign-rank, they could at least ensure they were strongest and could save themselves or others.

"Mr. Sirius, when will you get them?"

"Will it be before we have to go to the Calamity Region?"

"How many sets will you have?"

The Tamers fired questions rapidly after the initial shock.

John waved his hand, consuming Molding Essence to mute the atmosphere and allowing only his voice to ring.

When people could not hear their own voice, they quieted down, eyes shocked.

"Please, one at a time," Mr. Sirius said with a smile. "For now, I’ll answer everything, so listen. I will only have three sets available, so only three people or monsters can reach the peak of Sovereign-rank."

"They will be in the auction."

"Only three?" Aren of Dreamforged Guild muttered in disappointment.

"Mr. Sirius, do you have Emperor-rank fruits like that for Emperor-rank Tamers?"

"No...not yet."

"So it’s possible for them to appear in the future? Alright."

Meanwhile, those at the peak of Emperor-rank, like Loren, Arion, Zomei, Dazmira, Executive Rudh, and others from other forces, were thinking about breaking through to Sovereign-rank if they could get the Sovereign-rank set.

They were the best Emperor-rank of their forces, so if they ate the fruits and reached peak instantly, the fruits would be more worthwhile.

"Now that you know some items of the auction, how about I ask some things I am curious about?"

"Ask away, Mr. Sirius." The peak Sovereign-rank tamer of Stormajde Pavilion promptly said with a smile. "We’ll answer everything we can."

The others also nodded in agreement.

"First, I am rather surprised you believed that demon and are sending reinforcements down here." Mr. Sirius’s eyes narrowed. "Or are you perhaps planning something else after going to the Undernight continent?"

The peak Sovereign-rank Tamers who came from a higher world looked at each other, all having wry smiles.

’Eh? It looks like the situation is different.’ John blinked.

"To be honest, Mr. Sirius. We had our doubts. But up there, high-ranking demons also arrived before we could begin our investigation, gave us the proof, and told us to send all reinforcement down below."

"And as fate would have it, the demons are stronger already, but the ones that approached us have a stronger organization than we."

Another peak Sovereign-rank chimed in. "So we have no choice but to go all out in sending reinforcements, because they won’t accept half-hearted efforts."

"They openly threatened us that if we did not do our best, the destruction of our organization would be nigh."

"And their threat can become reality because they are powerful."

[Jibril: Woah...]

’Damn.’

Mr. Sirius blinked and sighed. "Well, that is rather unfortunate, but all is good if they leave you alone after the calamity, I suppose."

"Well, that they will do because they are not interested in our territory or prowess."

"Then it’s good," Mr. Sirius said with a carefree chuckle. "Let us beat the calamity and continue with our lives."

"With that said, allow me to ask the second question." Mr. Sirius smiled. "I really would like an honest answer to this because it could affect my business with you all in the future."
