’Space Rhythm’ Beirut!
"Why has this harbinger of disaster co?"
The Tyrant is a great calamity.
Beirut is a lesser calamity.
The Starshine King dares not provoke the Tyrant, nor does he dare provoke Beirut.
Who knows if striking the smaller one might bring forth the bigger one?
He does not dare to take any chances.
While summoning the Dawn Scholar, he reluctantly steps out, arriving just outside the Gobada Islands.
An Immortal has co.
And it’s Beirut.
The Starshine King dares not feign ignorance; gritting his teeth, he steps forward, gazing at Beirut suspended in the distant air, and says loudly, "Your Eminence Beirut, coming all the way here, may I inquire about your guidance?"
Twice confronting the Tyrant, the Starshine King has since learned his lesson—polite, courteous, keeping all protocol intact.
"I’m here to relay a ssage from the Dean. The Dean requires Holy Artifacts for experints, but his supply is insufficient. Therefore, I’ve co to request assistance from all Your Excellencies, and I hope the Dawn Era can sponsor five Holy Artifacts."
Beirut’s attitude is equally cordial.
This ti, he is on a mission to solicit donations under orders. The Dawn Era is rely the first stop—there are hundreds of organizations, big and small, still to visit afterward.
According to the Dean’s orders, he needs to acquire at least 500 donated Holy Artifacts on this trip.
That’s no small ask.
However, their Dean is not one to take without giving back. Seeing the grim expression on the Starshine King’s face, Beirut knows he’s likely cursing inwardly, so he adds, "The Dean has said that these Holy Artifacts will not be taken without adequate compensation. If the Dawn Era provides five Holy Artifacts, it can nominate five Peak Great Mages to attend the Summoning Cottage. In recent years, the Dean has developed a Legendary Potion based on the Divine Potion, which has a significant chance of helping Great Mages advance to the Legendary rank."
"Legendary Potion?"
The Starshine King’s anger begins to dissipate.
As long as the Holy Artifacts aren’t given away for nothing.
As for the true effectiveness of this Legendary Potion, and why people must be sent to the Summoning Cottage instead of simply receiving it directly, the Starshine King can only speculate that this is the Tyrant’s excuse for demanding Holy Artifacts—retaining at least a shred of decorum.
The Starshine King contemplates many things.
But thinking of the Tyrant’s terrifying power, he opens his mouth to speak, yet ultimately says nothing.
"Here are the Holy Artifacts."
The Starshine King obediently hands over five Lower Holy Artifacts to Beirut.
Then, realizing the Holy Artifacts are already handed over, he might as well cooperate further.
Thus, he selects five Peak Great Mages from the Dawn Era who are loyal but lack future potential, instructing them to set off for Valgrion on their own accord.
After wrapping up the matter, Beirut departs.
The Starshine King exhales in relief: "Finally sent this calamity away."
At this mont.
The Dawn Scholar ’coincidentally’ arrives: "Beirut was here? What was he here for?"
The Starshine King doesn’t expose him, rely shakes his head and says, "The Tyrant claid he needed Holy Artifacts for experints. Beirut just ca to request five. I don’t want to provoke the Tyrant, so I simply gave them to him."
"Five Holy Artifacts?"
"That’s nothing."
The Dawn Scholar, hearing this, also breathes a sigh of relief.
The mighty Tyrant, dormant for thirty to forty thousand years, coming out this ti rely to request five Holy Artifacts—and they’re just Lower Holy Artifacts—is almost ’gentle.’
They’re willing to cooperate.
So long as it isn’t too outrageous, a na as imposing as the Tyrant’s, paying a courtesy visit to organizations like the Dawn Era, typically wouldn’t et resistance.
So rely on influence.
The Tyrant now simply needs to announce his na to command enormous respect.
This man is too powerful.
Both the Starshine King and the Dawn Scholar have long abandoned any delusions.
Now, the two can only hope the five Holy Artifacts will satisfy the Tyrant and prevent any further excessive demands.
"But regardless, the Tyrant stirring up trouble again—this surely bodes ill!"
The Starshine King and the Dawn Scholar exchange glances, their eyes filled with worry.
