I stood on the back of my chariot watching what my soulers were doing down below while waiting for Silverlining to come back at me.

And the first thing that happened was for my boys to discover more stones like the one Hilary stood at and read.

It was still puzzling me. Why did she go there if she was possessed with that soul? Wasn't she supposed to go towards the dome directly or what?

It didn't make quite sense. Anyway I examined the rocks my soulers kept finding, and they all were covered in such weird language.

I tried to decipher it but couldn't, even asked Lucias and he didn't recognise it.

And then another piece of news came after five hours.

[The sovereign is asking to come and see that loop pocket world himself]

And that was what Silverlining sent in return.

[Not a chance!] you wanted to come? Did that eccentric weird dude of yours tell you something important and you wanted to check if it was true or not?

Inviting such a dangerously powerful person over to my planet? I already have enough problems at hand to handle. Inviting such calamity that I don't have any control upon was a foolish mistake I wouldn't do.

[But… He is persistent about it]

[Let him know this, if he has any use from this place, I'm willing to share] If such a person placed a priority over this site, then it must have a secret or some sort of a treasure.

[He says he is just curious, what do you think?]

[I think he is trying to bluff his way to here, and I won't let anyone trespass my own home]

[But we gave you a VIP privilege to our home, don't forget that]

Suddenly a new chat window popped up and I couldn't help but roll my eyes in return.

'You are so damn impatient about getting your hands over my site,' I thought to myself before sending in return, [Are you the sovereign, the friend of Silverlining?]

[Silverlining is the one who is trying to befriend me, and yes it's me, Golane sovereign]

[Nice to meet you] he seemed quite stirred up by this site, [But as I told Silverlining, I can't grant you access to my home]

[And as I said, we gave you the same privilege as our home. Or do you want to be treated in the same way?]

[That wasn't just an act of generosity! It was in return to a grand deal. Do you want me to call all these deals off?]

[You…] he was hard to deal with, but who said I'd get scared with his harsh words and cold attitude?

If I was standing in front of him right now, then I'd end up getting terrified of his power. But we were worlds apart. Even if he threatened me, I wouldn't budge an inch off my stand.

[I never liked you from the start, do you know that?] his words started to change, showing the real colour of his face, [I voted against you in the two meetings. I don't know what that idiot here told you, but I'm one of the leaders of the force rejecting the presence of a weak and useless human in our close circle. You are nothing! Your race is just a disgrace to even get its name on my tongue!]

[Then thanks for such honesty. If you don't like me this much, then let's end this nice talk here]

[And do you think you can find answers on your own? Quite funny and admirably pathetic!]

[I can't on my own indeed, but what if I used my little bones and started a universe wide bounty task? Any info about this thing here in return for a useless green bone of mine. How many do you think will get excited and step in to help?]

[All the news about what you seek is wrong! Go ahead, and you'll get yourself ton of sh*t in no time]

[And…] I ignored his last remark, [I can give such an offer; one red bone for anyone who can give me credentialed and certified intel about this pocket world. Do you think might be aware of this?]

[Not anyone aside from my friend!]

[Indeed, but do you know that I got a link with the system higher ups?]

[What…]

[I can simply give this red bone to them, and even better… I can ask for any price they'd love to, and I'll double it!]

[You are bluffing! Not a mere useless human can reach to the skyhigh higher ups and even make a deal with them!]

[I already reached that skyhigh level before. I did a deal with them before, as I did a deal with your mighty and all powerful race in the universe. I'm not a nobody, not that useless and weak as you might think. Sorry, but you are wasting my time. I'll go and speak with those higher ups better]

[Don't you dare…]

[And… I will make sure that all the other sovereigns in the Toranks race will get to know about what you just did]

[Are you… Threatening me?!!] Well, he seemed quite shocked.

As he was so daring and arrogant enough to expose his hatred to me in such a blunt way, I had to smash that reality onto his face.

I wasn't afraid of him, not even a single bit. He might cause problems from time to time, but giving a punch in return wasn't going to change this.

He already was dead fixed on being on bad terms with me from the beginning.

And dude… You weren't the only sovereign that mattered in your race. I got support from your race, twice in a row! Even if you had few around to antagonise me, I got lots more to support my cause.

[Consider it as you like, but I'm giving you a final chance to join my side]

[Screw you! I'll find out where the heck is your home world and make sure to destroy it with my own forces!]

[Empty threats won't help you. Don't forget, I got something you desperately need]

[F*ck you!]
