Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 592 Glosan's Plan And The Item

"Dammit, that moron!" Glosan shouted as he struck his fist against the table in his office. The table, which was made out of a branch of a world tree similar to Yggdrasil, broke from the blow, snapping in half.

Glosan glanced down at the broken table and the splinters that had flown around before sighing.

"Why the hell would you attack someone of the leveling realm when you could have simply traded something for the item, now the chances of me getting it are abysmally low," Glosan said before sitting down and leaning back against the chair. He stared at the ceiling, anger still visible on his face.

"Luckily my plans won't be ruined, but finding another piece will take a long time, I have no idea how many centuries it will take, and to think I almost had it in my grasp, tch." Glosan clicked his tongue in frustration before calling for his right-hand man.

The person, one that was not human but a being that looked like a squid that was a bit human-like, entered the office.

"My lord?" The squid asked while staring at the broken table, fully aware that if Glosan had broken something so valuable that he treasured deeply, he was in a lot of anger.

"The piece is not retrievable, they will be keeping watch over the boy that killed Plor, which means that we won't be able to do anything, even trying to negotiate with him will not be possible, they could get suspicious and might even take a look at the piece if they were to see it and find out what it is, there is no way they will let me have it, the Heavenly Charms Mansion will keep it," Glosan said before taking a deep breath.

"Have the men start looking for another one, even though the chances of finding one are small, we will not be giving up, is that clear?" Glosan asked the squid who bowed to him.

"Of course, my lord." The squid, who was a Low-God, graciously left the office before Glosan stared out of the window.

"And to think I was so close to getting it, that moron, most people in the universe will not care for the item, why not simply bargain with a mortal in the leveling realm, you could have gotten it for a cheap price, hell, the mortal might have even gifted it to him if he had shown that he wants the item!" Glosan said before looking at a small hologram next to his table.

The hologram showed a fruit, one that was about 20 cm in length and 10cm in width. The fruit was white, with purple dots on it. It was called the fruit of the dead, an immensely rare fruit that could be found in the universe.

It does not grow on a tree or any plant, finding one is very hard thanks to the fact that it simply shows up in random places. There are no signs that the fruit will appear anywhere, as it randomly spawns at places, without any true reason.

The name fruit of death was given to it thanks to the fact that if someone was to eat it, they would die, even if they were a god.

Other than that, the fruit serves no real purpose to anyone. You would not gain anything from trying to refine it in any way, you could not create a potion or pill with its help, nor would keeping it close to you do anything beneficial or harmful to you.

The only purpose it has, at least from what people in the universe knew about, was actually wine-making.

Yes, the reason why Glosan wanted the fruit, and why his servant Plor tried to kill Beast, was because he had somehow gotten his hands on it, and Glosan wanted it to make wine.

There was no wine that you would be able to make from the fruit itself as it served to aid the wine that one was already creating. Simply putting the fruit inside a wine barrel, or a huge pot of wine, would make it taste better and make it stronger.

People still had no idea why it was so, but it was a coveted item by all winemakers in the universe, and from what Glosan knew, the Heavenly Charms Mansion had 2 of them, but that was only what the public knew and there was a high chance they had more.

Glosan loved wine, and he loved making it. He wished to have the fruit only because of that. With the fruit in his possession, he would be able to create top-quality wines that could sell for exorbitant prices, and not only that, but he would gain the favor of some powerful patrons, making his position in the Alliance, and the entire universe, a higher one.

He had been actively looking for the fruit for about 3 centuries now, and after so long, Plor had contacted him to tell him that he was confident that he had found a planet where fruit of death was located at.

After spending about half a year there, Plor had recently, only about 2 days ago, told Glosan that he was now 100% certain that the fruit was here and that he would have it in a couple of days. Glosan was overjoyed, his plan would finally come to fruition. With the fruit in his possession, he would make top-quality wines and slowly become more and more famous, getting benefits from the Alliance would be easier, the number of resources available for him would be higher, and he would be able to slowly improve his strength in peace as nobody would try to fight him thanks to the connections he would obtain.

Alas, that was all in the past, his plan and dreams were shattered after his servant had been killed, and the fruit was now in Beast's hands. Glosan did not know if Beast knew the true value of the fruit, but it did not matter as there would be no opportunity to get it back.

As for Azaleon, he had returned to the Heavenly Charms Mansion and reported back to Kristy. Upon hearing his report, Kristy narrowed her eyes and scoffed, certain that Glosan had lied.

"I did not push for further information because, in the end, it was Glosan that paid the price of losing a servant, and the boy you have marked is safe," Azaleon said as Kristy nodded her head before sitting down.

"Are the men you sent to Earth still there?" Kristy asked Azaleon who nodded at her.

"One has remained, the other two had captured a Saint that Glosan had sent to Earth, he had told me that he had sent him in order to check up on the boy, they are currently coming back, but I told them to let him go and return alone, do you wish for the Saint to be brought here?" Azaleon asked Kristy who shook her head.

"No, since he has already contacted the Alliance about sending the Saint over to Earth and gave us an explanation, then we don't have any reason to keep the Saint," Kristy said with a sigh before looking at Azaleon.

"Have the Ionom that is at Earth stay there, I want him to know just what Beast had obtained for a Transcendent to attack him."

"If it is something truly valuable that he will have difficulty keeping, we can buy it off him, or keep it safe before he decides to take it back, whatever he chooses, tell the Ionom to accept his choice, he is a person I have marked, after all," Kirsty said as Azaleon smiled before bowing and leaving her room.

As for the person they were discussing, he was currently in the main medical ward the elves had. Compared to the ones that Doncaster had, these were of higher quality and were used by the elves and the people of Doncaster to take care of those that were heavily injured.

Those that had light injuries would go to a hospital that Reign and the others had built by using the system, and even though getting treatment there was relatively cheap and was worth it, it was not at the same level as what the elves could give.

That was why they had come to an agreement that only those that were more heavily injured would get treated by the elves since they had less room and were almost at max capacity every day in the past. This way, those working in the medical ward were able to get enough rest and do their job well, leading to a higher quality of service and healing.

Reign and Wolf were still upset, but they knew that there was nothing they could do right now. They had to wait for Beast to get better before finding out what had happened. Luckily for them, Drayce's master was able to quickly find out who Beast's patron is, and Drayce told them not to worry as there was no chance that the patron of the Transcendent Beast had killed would dare do anything.

The Saint that Azaleon had sent over had just arrived in Doncaster, and his appearance caused people to freeze in their tracks as some of his aura could be felt even with him doing his best to keep it suppressed.
