Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Seconds went by as Corey went up the stairs along with the tier 6. At first, he was tense since he had no idea what the tier 6 wanted. But later, he calmed down and thought about the behavior and the way the tier 6 interacted with him from the moment he appeared.

The behavior of the tier 6 had been strange ever since he appeared. He did not force Corey to expose his status window, nor did he try to capture Corey for himself.

The tier 6's behavior insinuated that he meant Corey no harm despite their vast power difference.

Although Corey's feelings and the conclusion he came to, meant that the tier 6 most likely meant him no harm. Corey did not let down his guard, no matter what.

A thought came to Corey's mind, then he communicated with Nina:

'Can I see what you showed him on my status window Nina?'

Corey requested, and a status window appeared a second later.

Corey's eyes widened slightly as he gazed at the tampered status window before him.

'That's a lot of changes.' Corey thought with surprise and a tinge of relief.

Nina made so many changes to his status window, and if he started listing down all of them, it would take so much time.

Although he wanted to ask Nina about specific changes she made, he decided not to since it might take a lot of time.

He also wanted his whole attention to be on the situation he was currently in.

"You know."

The familiar voice of the tier 6 flowed into his ears, and Corey's full attention was on him.

"When Divine told me that a tier 2 would be the one to come here most likely, I didn't believe him at all."

"Divine?" Corey was stunned.

The Tier 6 stopped climbing the stairs, then he turned towards Corey with a small smile.

Corey expected him to continue speaking, but he didn't, and Corey was slightly frustrated.

"What do you mean by what you just said?"

Corey asked, and the tier 6 waved his index finger.

"Wrong question."

The Tier 6 spoke with the same small smile, and Corey frowned.

Corey looked down, and the gears in his mind spun for a second.

"Who are you?"

Corey looked at the tier 6 with a deep frown, and the tier 6 chuckled.

"Most residents of the Central Area know me, but since you're not a Central resident, it's not surprising that you don't know me."

The tier 6 said, and then he continued walking up the stairs, which seemed to have no end.

"I'm the guardian of the central hub of the Central Area. Apart from the Lord of the Central Area, I possess the highest authority in the Central Area."

"You can call me Vice-Lord."

The tier 6 calmly said, and Corey's eyes flashed.

"How do you know Divine? And what is your relation to Divine?"

Corey asked the two most important questions on his mind, and the Vice-Lord gave him a glance.

[I'm an ally of Divine.]

The Vice-Lord mentally transmitted, and his words stunned Corey.

"What?"

Corey stayed rooted on the spot and subconsciously spoke out loud.

His eyes bore a mixture of disbelief and confusion at the words of the Vice-Lord, and the Vice-Lord chuckled.

"You're confused."

The Vice-Lord spoke with a tinge of amusement in his tone, and Corey responded:

"Of course I am."

The Vice-Lord chuckled once again, then he mentally transmitted to Corey once again:

[Divine helped me with something in the past, and we became allies.]

[Although I knew that Divine was unique and a troublemaker, I never expected him to even think of robbing the home of the Lord of the Central Area.]

[In fact, he almost put me in serious trouble with the Lord in the process.]

The Vice-Lord paused, and Corey released a relieved sigh.

They had reached the end of the stairs.

[Normally, I can reduce the sentence or punishment given to a criminal in the Underworld, but Divine's crime was something I could not reduce at all.]

The Vice-Lord said as they walked in a completely white corridor. The corridor was plain, and it also had no doors or any other object.

'Creepy.'

Corey thought as he walked behind the Vice-Lord.

[I spoke to Divine, and he told me that somebody from his group members would show up.]

The Vice-lord paused, and then he gave Corey a glance.

[He said a tier 2 would most likely be the one to come.]

The Vice-Lord said, and Corey furrowed his brows.

[I was baffled when he said that a tier 2 would most likely be the one to visit him. I thought it was a plan of his or something else. But, after looking at your status window, I now know you're not a regular tier 2.]

[You're unique, just like the remaining members of his group.]

The Vice-Lord said, then he stopped.

Corey also stopped, then he looked at the front and saw a white elevator door.

"You have a permit to see him right?"

The Vice-Lord asked out loud, no longer communicating mentally with Corey.

Corey nodded, and the Vice-Lord nodded also.

"Enter the elevator, and it'll take you to Divine."

The Vice-Lord gestured towards the elevator door, and with a 'ding,' the door parted open.
