Chapter 87. Viktor of Mega Faction
Seichi hunched forward, resting both elbows on his knees. His fists pressed against his chin. “Yeah, exactly. Everyone cleared an entire floor when he walked in. No one dared mess with him. That aura was no joke.” Ignatia leaned back against the stone bench she was sitting on, arms crossed tightly over her chest. “He didn’t even say a word. Just stood there, and people backed off. That’s the kind of intimidation we’ll be facing.” Devon exhaled slowly, his eyes narrowing. “So the mega faction is already flexing. Which means Neutral Ground isn’t as safe as it looks. They can move without breaking the rules.” He turned back to Seichi and Ignatia. “Did he see you?” “Yeah. We weren’t exactly hiding. Maybe he noticed us, but he didn’t approach or anything. Just looked for a minute, then moved on.” “He was sizing us up,” Seichi said. “Frida was right, Devon. There’s no way he ignores other strong groups.” “Can you guess how strong he is?” Devon pressed, trying to gather as much i
Chapter 86. Being Watched
“Where do we meet again later?” Raline asked. “Let’s regroup at the fountain after four hours. That should be enough time for everyone,” Grendel decided after thinking for a moment. They split up, each heading toward their assigned destinations to buy the supplies they needed. Devon and Raline walked together toward the medical supply section. The place was quieter, cleaner, and more organized than the rest of the Market District. The sharp smell of antiseptic filled the air. “This place almost feels normal, like when we used to shop back home,” Raline murmured as she inspected surgical tools one by one. Devon chuckled softly. “Except now we’re shopping so we don’t die in a damn death tournament.” “You’re so pessimistic…” Raline muttered, glancing at him while he just shrugged indifferently. For an hour they picked out everything needed for Raline’s medical team to treat and heal the participants. The prices were reasonable, one full medical kit cost 500 SP. They bought
Chapter 85. Shopping
Valdris laughed again, his voice sounding more like a monster than a man, then turned to face his companions. “But I think this is necessary. Devon’s our main death magic user. Boosting his abilities helps the whole alliance.”“That’s true,” Grendel admitted, his thick brows furrowing as he thought hard. “But we also need outfits for everyone, don’t forget. Don’t burn a quarter of our budget on just one damn book.”“What if we use some of our personal points?” Ignatia chimed in. “Each champion has their own stash, so it won’t drain the main pool too much.”“That’s right,” Devon said, checking his total SP, suddenly remembering he had his own.[Personal Survival Points: 18,773]His fourth-place finish in the raid had given him a hefty amount. But spending it all on one book felt risky as hell.“I’ll contribute 10,000 from my personal pool,” Klaus said, stepping forward. “Think of it as an investment in our survival.”“Haha, I’ll throw in 5,000,” Grendel added, slapping Devon’s shoulder
Chapter 84. The Market District
The Market District was massive in scale and messy in every way. Hundreds of people crowded the narrow alleys between stalls, some haggling, some arguing, and others just browsing with sharp, suspicious eyes, always questioning the price or the quality of what was being sold.Through his Death Sight, Devon could see the place was packed beyond belief. Thousands of people, a dozen powerful champions, and the cold, hollow signatures of Guardians standing evenly spaced apart, watching everything with silent vigilance.“Don’t wander off,” Grendel muttered in a low voice. “Don’t get separated, and don’t buy anything without all of us agreeing first.”They moved as one group through the main thoroughfare. Stalls lined both sides, selling anything imaginable.Weapons hung from racks on display. Swords, spears, war axes, bows and arrows, and even strange weapons Devon had never seen before. Some glowed faintly with enchantments, while others looked plain but were clearly well-crafted.Floatin
Chapter 83. Going to Market District
The evening meeting was more crowded than the afternoon one. All the champions were present, along with Williams, Lee, and several other key people in front of their alliance.Grendel stood at the head of the table, looking more rested than he had earlier. “Alright, reports. Devon, Seichi, what did you two pick up?”Devon explained their talk with Frida, including the warnings about the mega faction and the Market District info.“Viktor,” Grendel repeated the name while rubbing his beardy jaw. “Yeah, I know that name. A Rank, Odin’s golden boy. Strong as hell, but his ego bigger than a mountain. If he’s building a mega faction, that’s trouble.”“Should we try talking to them?” Ignatia asked. “You know, try to make friendly ties or something?”“No,” Valdris interjected from his corner. “Groups like that don’t do friendship. They want followers, subordinates. If we approach, they’ll smell weakness.”“So we just ignore them?” Seichi asked.“For now,” Grendel decided. “We stay neutral. Do
Chapter 82. Information Trading
The tall woman saw them approaching and immediately straightened her posture.“Can I help you two with something?” she asked with an unfamiliar accent. Maybe somewhere Nordic or Scandinavian.“We are looking for an information exchange,” Devon directly said without any preamble. “We are trying to understand how this whole place works.”The woman studied them closely for three minutes, clearly assessing their threat level. “You two are from the Alliance, I've heard. The group that killed the Corruption Titan, right?”“Yeah, that's us,” Seichi confirmed.“Fine. I'm Frida of Freya,” she said, extending her hand in a friendly gesture. Devon shook her hand, and felt her grip was surprisingly strong for a woman.“I'm Devon of Anubis. Nice to meet you.”“Seichi of Susanoo, good to meet you too,” Seichi shook her hand.Frida nodded her head and smiled. “Come on. We’ll talk inside.”She led them inside one of the main buildings. The interior was sparse but clean. Stone floors, simple wooden fu
