Dyon gave the newcors a glance before pressed his card against the ticket.
A small flash of light sounded as the violet, blue and pink card dimd slightly. An instant later, the ticket disappeared into motes of light, replaced by low level spatial ring.
Usually, spatial rings had an inability to house living things. This, of course, included various spiritual plants. However, this issue could be overco with special vessels used for storing and preserving such items.
It was actually quite extravagant to use such a thing every ti a person purchased sothing, but the tower could afford it as long as the bill was above a certain price. Dyon just managed to reach the threshold for the lowest level.
Dyon allowed the spatial ring to fall into his palm. “Thank you for the help Amy. Next ti I co I’ll be sure to look for you.”
Before she could react, Dyon lightly pressed the very sa card against her employee badge, signifying that their transaction was over. He did her one last favor by drawing a clear line between them so she wouldn’t have to be involved in what was to co.
“Ah… Thank you!” Amy quickly bowed.
Dyon smiled and nodded, bidding her farewell before turning toward the exit. Unfortunately, it seed that these newcors were hell-bent on blocking his path.
From what Dyon could see, there were four. One was the tall lady that left with Brea, Brea herself, a young man wearing white robes, and an older middle-aged woman wearing black robes.
However, the robes of the latter two were very different from what Dyon was used to seeing. Usually, rank was decided by the color and number of bands on your sleeves, while the color denoted which secondary profession you had mastery of.
The fact that the middle-aged woman was wearing black robes ant that she was a Beast Master. What was more intriguing though was the fact the white robes of the young man ant that he had reached at least a Master level of proficiency in not one, but at least two professions!
Still, that wasn’t the most poignant point. The both of them had not a single band on their sleeves… Instead, there was an illusory sheen that hovered just a few centiters above their robes… It painted a scene of shooting star crossing the night sky.
It was a beautiful scene that could entrance anyone seeing it for the first ti. However, the most important part was that this was a scene that could only be seen when eting a cot grade expert!
The middle-aged woman looked toward Dyon with a frown clear on her features. She wasn’t entirely sure how to handle this situation. Normally, rules set by their Beast Protection Association, or BPA for short, could only be enforced on the weak. However, that was the description furthest from the reality of this young man. She felt uncomfortable just eting his eyes. As though she was eting an Emperor with worries far exceeding her…
Truth be told, the BPA was ford to appease warring beast states. Although one might tend to neglect Earth and Heaven Grade beasts, the truth was that they too could gain intelligence to match humans.
The troubling part was that even Earth Grade beasts were comparable to third grade humans. Following this trend, one can imagine how powerful a race of Heaven Grade beasts were being of the second grade.
Of course, there were so exceptions to this. For example, Kitsune who were classified as supre beasts could even sotis be weaker than so Earth grade beasts depending on their tail count. Dragons were the sa, however this was dependent on their Dragon Soul.
Simply put, transcendent and supre beast grades represented a ceiling of ability, not an absolute ability. This was an equivalent exchange made for them being more human-like and having the human path available to them.
However, Earth Grade and Heaven Grade beasts represented this absolute level of ability, making them highly dangerous, especially in large quantities.
So, the question remained, how could such powerful species agree to be partners with humans so readily?
The truth was that they didn’t. Not easily, anyway.
There were many laws restricting the partnership of humans and beasts, and these laws were enforced by the BPA.
If Dyon did what he was accused of, it wouldn’t be a surprise for the beasts to ask for blood. For a relationship that was already teetering on the edge, this was sothing that couldn’t be afforded. Especially if this Dyon was just strutting around without a care for who saw his cruel acts.
The truth was that Madeleine’s Golden Fla Quadrant was in the severe minority. Usually, a quadrant would have two or three main powers with nurous “unconquered” lands.
For example, Dyon’s ho quadrant supposedly had 21 ‘unclaid’ universes. In Saru’s ho quadrant, her clan and the kitsune controlled about 60 quadrants between them with 40 being ‘unclaid’. This sa pattern was repeated in the Grand Templar Quadrant, and again the Kong Quadrant, and again… and again…
A secret hidden in plain sight was exactly what this was. These universes weren’t ‘unclaid’ at all, nor were they held by weaker clans that just so happened to be lucky enough to survive, not most of the ti, anyway. No… These were collectively known as the ‘Savage Lands’.
These were the places that the Beasts road free… These were places that even the greatest clans had to hesitate before provoking…
