Chapter 296 Thousands of Apex Sovereigns
??In the Etherium realm, Arcane Continent, City of Arcana:
After the dimensional teleportation array and the sensation of being pulled by the World Will.
Maximus carefully looked at the new environment.
However, before he could admire the change.
His body couldn't help but tense.
Even though he didn't feel any killing intent, he felt multiple Apex Sovereigns blatantly staring at his body.
"This-" Maximus calmed down and looked around.
Seeing his family unaffected, he heaved a sigh of relief.
These Apex Sovereigns must be looking at him because of his connection to the 'Dimensional Merchant.'
As soon as he guessed that, those Apex Sovereigns directly teleported in front of him.
"Maximus Shadowcrest," They muttered, looking at him carefully.
After a rough look, there should be at least a thousand Tier 9 powerhouses in front of him.
If it weren't for his confidence in his strength, he would probably be trembling by now.
"So, this is the foundation of the Etherium realm..."
In the Abyss assembly years ago, he only saw a few hundred apex sovereigns and thought nothing of it.
However, seeing over a thousand apex sovereigns from different parts of the world.
Maximus couldn't help but marvel at the Etherium realm foundation.
Furthermore, without the suppression of the abyss acting on these apex sovereigns.
Their aura felt more frightening and full as if the whole world was in their palm.
"No need to be tense; these individuals were just eager to meet you," Fealan smiled and unconsciously protected him.
Maximus' connection with another dimension wasn't a significant concern for Fealan.
Maximus was a student of his academy first and foremost.
Second, most importantly, Maximus was a being of the Etherium realm, fighting for the same world.
Fealan didn't covet Maximus' property but was merely curious and vigilant regarding the so-called dimensional merchant.
"Thank you, Dean," Maximus smiled, seeing his backer.
Although he also had an essence of law to protect himself, he could only protect himself.
Maximus was not sure if he could protect his family in front of this army of apex sovereigns.
"Could we leave here first?" Knowing what they wanted, Maximus was also eager to do business.
However seeing the crowd, the place they were in was not suitable for talking business.
"I nearly forgot; let's go to the Tower of Arcana," Fealan smiled, waving his hand.
...
At the top of the Tower of Arcana:
Maximus, his family, and the thousand apex sovereigns quietly teleported.
"Should you return first?" Before looking at those apex sovereigns, he asked about his wives.
"Let us return first," They nodded in understanding, hearing the meaning of his words.
Maximus was about to scam these apex sovereigns.
What would happen next may put them in danger.
They may even be threatened at some point if the negotiation goes awry.
"Then see you later..." Maximus used the Amalgamation of Will and directly teleported them to the Moonlight Empire.
Although he knew that City Arcana was safer, there were more variables.
At least in the Moonlight Empire, his family could still have time to escape once something happened.
It can be said that Maximus was more thorough in considering all the risks.
Looking at Maximus's operation.
The apex sovereigns in the room didn't seem impatient; instead, they were in shock.
"Such strong control of the Amalgamation of Will!"
They already knew everything about Maximus, from his birth, every being he knew, all the places he had been through, etc.
Thus, seeing him use the Amalgamation of Will, they were not surprised.
What shocked them was his amazing control.
They had only seen this level of control from those Holy Emperors who ruled the Curse Continent in the past.
Moreover, seeing Maximus's ease, it seemed that his control over the Amalgamation of Will was much deeper.
"Ahem, shall we start?" Maximus asked, seeing them look at him blankly.
'It's that it's quite effective' Maximus thought looking they're in dazed.
Using the Amalgamation of will was a show of power, making the follower of negotiation later.
"Good," Fealan nodded and began to introduce the people around.
Most of them were from the top forces of the world who already got the news from the abyss early on.
However, due to dimensional restrictions, they couldn't transport a large amount of cash.
Hearing that Maximus was returning to the Etherium realm, they quickly put down what they were doing and came to the Arcane Continent.
There were also various individuals who had heard about Maximus and were curious.
If possible, they also wanted to exchange one or two weapons.
As for the top powerhouses of the Etherium realm?
Besides Fealan, there was no one.
For those who were already at the peak, no matter what external things they had, it was useless.
Without the world advancing to tier 10, everything would be for naught.
As for things that could artificially advance a dimension, Rakasha already asked Maximus about this.
Unfortunately, besides the Abyss Source, which is a world origin fragment, and Crystal Merits, which is the Origin of the Abyss, nothing else would work.
If there is, it couldn't just be bought in a prototype transdimensional system.
After all, things could make a dimension advance was a monopolized resource, that every dimension coveted.
...
After knowing all the individuals in the room.
Maximus began to introduce the status quo of the dimensional merchant, telling them what they were selling and so on.
Soon after a bit of internal discussion, most of those from top forces handed him a list and some money.
With a scan of his spiritual consciousness.
Maximus estimated there were hundreds of septillion low-
level magic crystals handed to him.
This was equivalent to hundreds of quintillion Crystal Merits.
With at least a 50 percent intermediary fee, Maximus earned significantly in this transaction.
...
After satisfying all the requests of those powerhouses.
Maximus and Fealan were alone in the room.
"Dean?" Maximus asked, seeing that Fealan seemed to have something to tell him.
"How is Malgron?" Fealan asked.
Maximus was not too shocked hearing Fealan knew that he was in contact with Malgron.
With Maximus's interaction with Malgron over these years, he was already somehow infected with his aura.
This thing stuck to him like glue, that he couldn't remove it even with the help of the Amalgamation of Will.
He could only temporarily hide it using his domain.
However, as the top powerhouse of the world, Fealan saw through it effortlessly.
Like Malgron, Fealan and the other two, Alabaster and Readius, touched the edge of the Origin of Law.
This is also why they needed to suppress themselves all the time, using only their clones for any activities.
Possessing a trace of the Origin of Law.
The Etherium realm's World Will saw them as the most tasteful delicacy, wanting to devour them all the time.
They even thought of going to the Abyss so as not to suppress themselves all the time.
However, the Etherium Realm's World Will wouldn't let them go.
Besides Rakasha, who can freely go into the Abyss despite also possessing a hint of the Origin of Law.
The trio can only be stuck here, wishing to tear the Etherium realm for its shamelessness.
Unfortunately, it's their home, without which they wouldn't even exist.
They can only hope to advance the Etherium realm quickly and be freed from this quagmire.
"Excellency Malgron is doing great."
"After I created a stronghold that couldn't be detected by the Abyss, Excellency Malgron can finally interact with society."
"That's good!" Fealan muttered with a smile.
For this old friend who always bullied them, Fealan was still happy.
For the trio, Malgron was like a big brother who may bully them but stands up at critical times to protect them.
Like countless epochs ago, when the Abyss was about to invade them.
Malgron sacrificed his close friends and comrades without a second thought just to give the Etherium realm some time.
He also rushed forward into the Abyss without fear, using his own body to delay the abyss for a longer time.
Hearing that Malgron was finally taking a break from all the fight, Fealan was genuinely happy.
Maximus then began to tell what Malgron had been doing since he went to the stronghold.
Like the establishment of Battle Axe Bar, which is Malgron's main entertainment.
As for the dangers of the Abyss, Maximus didn't delve into the details.
Otherwise, Fealan might detect something in his words and question him about it.
Finally, after reminiscing and talking about all kinds of things, Maximus was ready to go back.
"Wait!"
"What's the matter, Dean?" Maximus asked in puzzlement.
"You should be careful," Fealan warned.
Although he didn't covet Maximus's wealth, it cannot be said that the others were also unmoved.
Even if they knew that Maximus had the backing of the dimensional merchant, most of them had no fear.
When it comes to profits, there is no such thing as fear.
Furthermore, to rise from a bunch of mortals to an apex sovereign, they didn't lack any courage.
Earlier, seeing Maximus receive septillion magic crystals, some of them had a change of heart.
Noticing these, Fealan tried to warn his student.
As for the rest, it's up to faith.
He was merely a clone, he couldn't fight the whole world just because of a student.
He could only hope this student live up to his talent and pass all the coming tribulations.
"I know," Maximus nodded seriously.
For those who coveted his wealth, they better be ready to face the consequences.
