Coming out of the Order of Magi, Jack visited the League of Champions. He also challenged stage 80 there. He was hoping with his new expertise in using mana manipulation on Brave Slash, he might stand a chance.
Unfortunately, he also failed here.
If he had a one-on-one duel with the mythical-grade opponent, he should have a chance. But the other opponents kept on interrupting him, especially the rare elites. He could only summon his spirit weapon here. His wolves and Therras were inaccessible for this challenge. Unable to fend off the interruption from multiple enemies, Jack failed to land a clean hit using mana manipulation Brave Slash on the mythical-grade opponent.
Thus, he just repeated stage 79 five tis, scoring 395 glory points. With that addition, his total glory points were 3,300. These points were also not enough for worthy items in Angusticlavian rank as they all cost 4,000 glory points at least.
He went back to the palace and called it a night.

The next morning, Jack teleported to Heavenly Citadel.
Jeanny conducted the auction the day before. It turned out that many guilds were interested. Very few could win a single combat against a rare elite of the sa level, even among top experts. While hero tokens were too unpredictable. So of them had gotten hero token but the token mostly produced low-grade heroes. That's why the interest in a level 67 rare elite guild hero.
Nine guilds joined the auction. Not only the guilds from Themisphere, but so of the nine were from other countries. The winner was Wicked Witches, who bought the hero at 20,000 mana cores. It was more than six tis Jeanny's starting price, so she was happy about it.
She needed the mana cores for many things, so Jack didn't ask for a portion. The sold hero was also defeated by her, so the profit was all hers.
At the headquarters, Jack gave the exploding bottle and Hellish Spicy Steak recipe to Tip. Tip registered the recipe into the guild so guild mbers could use the recipes in guild workshops.
When Jack t Jeanny, she gave him two things. A copied technique book that contained the Wind Jet spell and a copied Shell Seed that John had gotten when hunting the dragon turtle.
Jeanny said she had gotten plenty of mana cores so she could spare so for Jack. Jack was grateful for them.
Jack proceeded to learn the Wind Jet spell without delay.

This spell was as fast as Shooting Dash but gave him a longer range. It only traveled one ti but Jack could use it in the air as well as on land. This spell used four runes spell formation.
As for the Shell Seed, Jack used it on his Ti Sage's Ti Domain.
After feeding the seed, the spell changed its na to Ti Realm. The spell added a barrier to the edge of the ti domain, stopping hostiles inside the domain from leaving. It also added two minutes to the spell's duration. The level 20 Ti Realm had a duration of five minutes.
The barrier that locked hostiles within the ti realm possessed HP equal to 200% caster's HP. Jack asked Peniel if the enemies broke the barrier, would his spell end? If so, Jack preferred the previous version. Peniel assured Jack that the ti-warp effect would continue in the area where he cast the spell even if the edge barrier was broken. The difference was the enemies could then leave the area of effect as in the original Ti Domain spell.
Jack asked Jeanny if she knew where Leavealone was. He checked his guild page and saw that Leavealone was not in the headquarters. He was also not present during the siege of Thelot. Jack had sent him a ssage but the guy just replied with a short cryptic ssage that he was away.
Jeanny told Jack that Leavealone went with Domon sowhere. They didn't say. They just said they were eting Domon's old acquaintance. Sothing about settling an interrupted business.
Since it was so, Jack took out the unique-grade fist weapons and gave them to Jeanny to pass them to Leavealone when he was back. Jack also told her that if she happened to have enough mana cores, she could also copy these weapons before passing them to Leavealone.
"Ready to get our first eternal-grade guild hero?" Jack asked.
"What's the percentage of one appearing again?" Jeanny asked back.
"Five percent," Peniel answered.
"With my luck, it might as well be one hundred percent! Haha...!" Jack laughed.
John, Paytowin, Jet, Bowler, and The Man ca into the guild hall then.
"I bring in supporters to laugh in case you fail," John said.
"Sigh. You, people, should have more faith. If you want sothing, you should think about it hard enough to make it real. Believe that we will get an eternal grade hero and it will happen," Jack said.
"Hahaha! You have not even failed and you have made laugh!" John laughed sarcastically. "Please don't sell that bullshit here."
"I believe in you, boss!" The Man exclaid.
"Told you we shouldn't bring him," Jet said to John.
"Let's just use the token and get this over with," Jeanny said, not interested in joining their aningless discourse. She took the lead and headed up to the Hero Altar.
Arriving at the Hero Altar, Jack took out the legendary-grade Infernal Hero Token and used it to interface with the altar. He also summoned his runestone of luck and focused his willpower to add the luck boost.
The hero altar connected with the infernal hero token and the process was completed. Everyone instinctively looked up, because that was where Nilrem appeared when they summoned her.
While they were waiting for anything to appear from up there, Jack sensed heat from under his feat. He looked down and was startled to find the floor directly in front of the Hero Altar was burning. He imdiately jumped away just as flas burst from that burning floor.
From inside the fla, a demon with a large fra walked out. He had a pair of big curved horns of obsidian color, a muscular body covered with dark red scales, and a pair of large bat wings. In his right hand was a saber, while worn on his left hand was a glove with a glowing power crystal.
Everyone used their Inspect.
