Chapter 67: Qualified For CAC, Types of Secret Realms



An hour passed by in relaxation as everyone left the hot spring in white bathrobes and gathered inside a beautiful two-story tree house behind the hot spring pool.

There were already masseuses waiting for them in small individual rooms. All the girls were beautiful and professional, their massage heavenly.

"Sir, turn around please."

"Mhmm," Aleron turned around and slept on his back. However, his mind was in passive mode at the moment.

He was trying out the powers of the Soul and could successfully send out his consciousness to observe far and wide.

It wasn't literally his consciousness, but a strange pair of eyes and all senses made from soul force. Strangely, it didn't consume his soul force at all.

Moreover, he tried sending his 'soul sense' into the mini-door of the secret realm he opened and succeeded!

As such, while getting the comfortable massage, Aleron was talking with Odar, overlooking a giant ghastly prison filled with around two hundred thousand souls.

"Boss, what are you planning?"

Aleron looked like a wispy ghost at the moment, but his manifested eyes looked lifelike and conveyed that he was in deep thought.

'Now, this is a bomb I wasn't expecting.'

[Gachapi: It's a good thing, Master.]

Just a minute ago, Gachapi told him that a message from the Cosmic Will had arrived and it was checking for any malicious things before conveying to Aleron.

This message was sent to him half a minute after Aleron shot that arrow and killed the demon.

[You are qualified to become a Warlord and join the Cosmic Ascension Competition. Your competitor for this planet's Warlord title is Elysia Gothwing.]

[You must gain the title of the 'Warlord' before Elysia Gothwing by having this planet under your banner with a 70% willing population supporting you.]

[The minimum intelligent population of your planet must be 1 billion or more.]

[The number of Primeval-rank powerhouses under you must be 20.]

[The number of Exceed-rank powerhouses under you must be 500.]

[The number of Legendary-rank powerhouses under you must be 10,000.]

[Upon meeting these requirements, you will gain the title of Warlord and access to the vast network of Cosmic Ascension Competition where you will compete for ten precious ascension spots among other qualified Warlords of this Argonia universe.]

'You said it's a good thing, right?'

[Gachapi: Yes, Master.]

'No. You are wrong.'

[Gachapi: Eh? Why, Master?]

'It's not just a good thing, it's the best thing! This is simply....yes, simply awesome!'

'And I am going to partake in this awesomeness and become a Warlord!"

'Anyway, so Elemental realms are open and other people can appear in that while Dungeon- types are closed secret realms conquered by a force who may have access to the universe.' [Gachapi: Correct. Lastly, those ranked Secret Realms are also closed. However, they have a native population living there and perhaps a civilization like in this Eldertide Archipelago. They are basically a complete world with a closed system cycle for resources until you deplete

it and make it cease to exist.]

'I see.'

[Gachapi: Oh and one more thing about the secret realms, Master. You can't have unlimited runes of Secret Realms that give you access to them. According to your current Source Space limit, you can only have 10 of such runes. However, you can transfer the rune to someone to

make space.]

'Gotcha. If transfer is possible, then there's no problem.'

Aleron then flew towards an empty space north of the city and called a few Vampires and Werewolves of Legendary-rank who were not busy.

'I want you all to build a nice round building that gives a gothic-looking but colorful and

lively vibe.'

All of them nodded and immediately unleashed their magic, using various elemental syllabuses to transform Mana into Earth, Crystal, Metal, Wood, and such materials and

directly shaping them into a building with fancy design and lighting.

They were done only in a few minutes.

'Perfect. Now add a big board that reads [Hall of Secret Realms.]'

Soon, a big board was also added.

Aleron then entered inside and activated the five new runes of Secret Realms that he acquired

before creating their portals in the hall.

The hall was vast since the building's area size was a 100-meter radius.

Aleron also put a sixth portal before telling a Vampire to create a stone pedestal beside each

portal with a wooden board on top, and each wooden board having the secret realm's name. The sixth one was the exit portal from this Eldertide Archipelago, but it was closed. Only with Aleron's consent could one leave it and appear beside him in the real world.

'I should also get a territory on the planet, but not yet. I'll do a journey first before deciding,'

Aleron grinned.

'Since I have decided to compete and get the Warlord title, I'll eventually need a big base.'

'But to think my competitor is the Goddess Elysia,' Aleron strangely felt excited, feeling that much fun awaited him in this new life.

'Wait, these people on this continent worship her, right? Damn, it's going to be hard, I guess.'

[Gachapi: They do worship her, but she isn't a saint or anything. She became a goddess by helping people from Akumas, so you can also do the same.]

'True!' Aleron grinned as his eyes brilliantly shone, 'From now on, this Ardentia World and all people in it are mine. Gotta shape it more beautifully, hahaha.'

Although Aleron ignited his new goal with much excitement, it was also about to teach him a new lesson that would shape his way of life in his clashes against Elysia Gothwing and her

schemes.
