_Bonds:

—> Erix, Rin, Lilith, Lily, Aria.

Both of them had gotten the same mark and effects.

"Actually, we have a buff activated right now, haha."

Rin showed the buff to others, making everyone surprised again.

"Yep. I have the same buff," Erix nodded.

[Leisure Roll Buff]

_Effect: Increase your Spirit by 100 and become less susceptible to negativity.

"This means that you'll constantly have a buff activated according to the situation," Lily smiled. "This is great."

"Tsk, it looks like you two don't care much about me," Amu's childish voice rang, clearly discontent.

"Eh, that's not true at all, but more like you are not caring about us," Rin rolled her eyes. "If you did, you would have appeared in that list."

Amu was stunned at first and then realized something as the cute slime nodded with its big eyes showing seriousness.

"You are right…I only care about Aria and no one else, but I can change that since you all care about Aria."

"We'll see that, haha," Erix laughed.

"Lady Lilith, the next item is one of the items you got me to check," Maleina said as she looked at a tablet.

The people in the VIP room had an advantage. Each VIP room had a tablet that would show the next item in advance.

"Good. We need it for the bloodline that Rin and I will evolve through Erix," Lilith smiled. "It's a rare natural resource that doesn't grow anywhere in the Abyss and could only be acquired from a certain attached dimension or event reward."

"Oh? What's the name?" Rin asked as she turned to Maleina.

"Umbresia Blood Dew."

…

The auction spanned approximately three and a half hours, during which Lilith successfully acquired the items she had targeted.

Aria enjoyed a deep and restful sleep, and remained undisturbed, still in slumber.

Amu said that it was Aria's first peaceful sleep after a long time, so putting her comfortably in Lilith's Airship's bed, the group made their way back to the Elf Kingdom's capital. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

The airship stopped at the palace before everyone got out, and Lilith put away the Airship.

Afterward, Erix directly teleports everyone at the palace entrance. Although it was possible to teleport within the palace, he couldn't teleport directly inside from outside due to a magic formation.

"Let's get back to training in the pond," Erix grinned. "We might get a buff that can help us progress faster with the new power we got."

…

Inside one of the famous Inn Hotels a few kilometers away from the Palace…

Lania entered the room with good news. She had talked with a palace guard and told him to inform her when the group that passed the test returned.

Since Erix and others became famous in the kingdom for passing the test, and also due to the recently spread Mirage crystal, they arrived on people's radar.

"They arrived, Meimei."

Meimei sprung up from her meditative state and said, "Let's go before those buffoons reach them."

Both girls immediately went to the palace with the request to them.

Just as they were waiting in the guest hall of the palace, a woman and man looking in their late twenties also arrived, and their mood sourced upon seeing each other.

Afterward, two more men arrived, and the hall became more silent than usual.

Erix arrived in the hall by interrupting his training because it was a bit important.

When everyone saw Erix, all of them recognized him and stood up.

"Fist of the Ab-"

"I know why you are all here," Erix interrupted the man from the Galatic Knight cosmic faction and started speaking.

"Unfortunately, we won't be joining any of your cosmic factions," Erix faintly smiled and said, "We have already decided which cosmic faction to join to return to our world after reaching Royal-order."

Everyone was stunned.

"Which one?" Meimei asked.

However, the name Erix uttered dumbfounded everyone.

"Unbound Star cosmic faction."

They couldn't speak for a couple of seconds before Meimei burst out laughing, "You can't be serious, right?"

"That's the factually lowest-rank cosmic faction," a random man from Trinity Apex cosmic said while shaking his head, "Your choice is unwise."

Erix laughed and said, "I am not here to listen to your opinions on our choice."I'm just here to inform you so you all can stop wasting your time."

"Thanks for coming here, but you can leave now. This is our decision."

Erix smiled and directly vanished from the spot.

Everyone showed envy the moment he vanished using teleport.

"Tsk, what a waste of talent and affinities."

"Yeah, he would have risen and gotten more rewards with faster progress in any of our cosmic factions, but he wants to join that dead cosmic faction."

"Whatever, it's not like we can force him," Lania said.

"Yeah, let's return and inform Lady Ayame of this decision," Meimei rolled her eyes. "It was really a waste of time."

…

"What?! Those women…"

Elina muttered something and nodded at the head maid, "You can return."

"Damn it. Why didn't they participate in the event?!"

Elina got up and left her room before going to the room where Runia was still sleeping.

"Uhh, I was having a good dream..." Runia opened her eyes and stretched her arms.

Elina snapped her finger and covered Runia in a dress before saying, "Those women are still alive, all of them. None of them participated in the event."

"What?!" Runia's eyes widened. "What the hell, why? All of them were eager to participate when I told them about it!"

"I don't know, but it's your job to find that out."

"But don't go right now. We don't want to make them suspicious of anything, so let them finish the training."

"Tsk, fine. They said they will emerge from the pond daily for five to ten hours anyway," Runia got off the bed in a foul mood.

"Whatever the case, we still have to make a new plan to kill them."

"Mother, think of something," Runia pouted and sat at the table before taking out a comm card and informing her maid to bring food.

Elina sat across her and rubbed her temples, "That event was a good chance, sigh. What plan to make now…"
