Chapter 90: Radtrata Cosmos' Combat Lords (1)



"Booth no 99's bid going thrice! Congratulations!" the auctioneer put away the hammer and clapped.

The audience burst into talking as the weapon was finally sold.

"I'll be back. Gonna go get the dough," Aleron chuckled and disappeared.

Meanwhile, a beautiful red-haired lady, who was a staff member of the auction entered their

VIP booth with a circular head-sized silver ring in her hand-an artifact found from the battlefield zone and mass-produced into a lower-quality version, commonly known as Transport Ring.

After the spear container was taken away from the stage, a hand emerged from the ring in the lady's hand. The hand threw a storage pouch containing the spear toward her.

"Wait a bit please," Rias said with a smile.

"No problem, Princess Rias," the lady nodded with a polite smile. 'The one who spoke was a man, is she waiting for him?'

A few seconds later, Aleron returned, appearing right back on the sofa couch.

Aleron also had lots of storage pouches as the Falran kingdom already had plenty of them. As such, he returned after putting 20,000 magic stones into one.

"Here, twenty-thousand SSS-grade magic stones," Aleron smiled and handed the pouch to the staff member.

"Your appearance..." Roxen was speechless.

Indeed, the staff lady's eyes widened in shock as she stammered, "Y-Y-You...."

"Oh shit," Aleron cursed and quickly activated his disguise skill to change his appearance as his hair turned light blue while his face, body, and height also changed.

"Do not tell anyone he is here," Rias said with a wry smile.

The red-haired gulped and nodded before she composed herself and gave a ninety-degree bow to Aleron a grateful expression, "Thank you for patronage and everything you did, young master Aleron. If you didn't punish my husband, I would still have my painful shackles." Aleron broadly smiled and got her up by grabbing her shoulder, "You're welcome, lady. Live your life to the fullest in peace. That's the only thing I want for everyone."

...

After the lady left, Aleron sat down and immediately took out the spear box from the pouch and took out the fabulous weapon.

"What is its name? I think you can name it however you want," Rias said as she curiously looked at the weapon.

"Hmmm," Aleron inspected the spear and was surprised to get its details.

[Dragonburst Jade Spear]

Rank: Primeval - Median.

Weapon Parameters.

- Attributes: Blood, Fire.

- Attack Power: Prime - 2.9 [290,000].

Effect(s): Scaled Spear-Arm, Dragon Burst Mode.

"Dragonburst Jade Spear is the name, haha. It looks cool," Aleron grinned as he held the spear. 'I need more Primeval-rank weapons, but Gacha is not a reliable source of it for now. I need to get stronger before doing gacha for it.'

After he left, Aleron curiously asked, "Where's this Golden Eagle clan, and who is that young

lord?"

"Nightwing Empire's strongest clan after the empire's royal family. The clan head is a primeval rank, just like the previous emperor of the empire," Roxen answered. "Your Empire doesn't have Primeval rank but they got two?" Aleron wryly smiled. Rias sighed upon hearing that, "That's why we are pressured by them. We have means to defend ourselves, but once the war with demons starts, we'll be at a disadvantage." "That's why I need to get stronger," Rias clenched her fists. "Grandfather Roshi is close to breaking through to primeval rank as well. He is working hard for it."

"Working hard is necessary indeed," Aleron nodded as he appeared thoughtful, "but now that I am working on a big plan that involves this whole continent, the flow and shape of war

might change."

Rias and Roxen nodded. They could already imagine Aleron's big impact on the war.

"Anyway, it still depends on the time. I will move and do things at my pace until it starts,"

Aleron grinned and sat back down on the couch. "Alright, back to nap."

'Let's see what Combat Lords has in store for me.'

Infusing a bit of Magilore in the device, Aleron closed his eyes and saw a prompt in his mind.

[New soul signature detected. Hello, Combat Lord.]

[Would you like to dive into Brutos-the world of carnage and competition?]

'Yes.'

Aleron felt his consciousness moving and soon some powers activated from the device before

he found himself appearing in outer space with glowing distant stars and wonderful celestial

bodies nearby.

'...I am really in outer space.'

Suddenly, a screen lit up in front of him.

[Welcome to the world of carnage and competition. In this world, you will compete against other combat lords for everything in various rankings for rewards, fame, and power!] [Upon meeting certain Combat Power requirements, you can also participate in limited-time events to compete for skills and powers of higher cosmos and dimensions! Are you ready to begin your journey that will take you past the horizon of the cosmos?]

'Woah! From higher cosmos and dimensions?' Aleron was shocked. [Gachapi: Interesting indeed. Master, if this game boasts of having all those things, then it is

safe to assume that whoever created this game is a powerful being from the upper cosmos and is using this game to make people of Radtrata Cosmos more powerful faster.] [Gachapi: This sort of big influence also means that Radtrata Cosmos wouldn't have Cosmic Ascension Competition like this cosmos has.]

'True. If this game is spread to that entire cosmos with such benefits, then all people there can

get stronger faster on average using this,' Aleron was dazed. Just what kind of power could

create a game like this that a whole cosmos could play?

He wasn't expecting this game to be this crazy!

'Damn, I have to see what I can gain from this,' Aleron excitedly grinned as he looked at

another screen, which looked like his status screen.

[Dear combat lord, please input your in-game Name and adjust your appearance to however you like. Once you are done, press the (Start) button below the character screen.]
