A young man with red hair wearing a blue uniform nervously flew through the headquarters of his Organization.
He was just an Outer Disciple, and Outer Disciples didn't usually frequent these parts of their headquarters unless an Outer Elder sent them there.
As the young man flew through the sky, some stronger people looked at him with furrowed brows. What was a Transcendent Outer Disciple doing here?
After a couple more seconds of flying, a powerful older man flew up to the Outer Disciple, stopping him.
"What are you doing here?" the older man asked, wearing the uniform of an Inner Elder.
"I'm sorry," the Outer Disciple said, performing a quick, polite bow. "I know I'm not supposed to be here, but I have been tasked with delivering a message to one of the Core Elders."
The Inner Elder furrowed his brows. "Give me your message, and I will forward it."
The young man became nervous. Being in front of a Fused Primal was quite intimidating for him since he was just an Advanced Transcendent.
He felt really out of place, and all his instincts told him not to stand out too much.
Yet, as he remembered the promised reward, he found new strength.
So what if everyone believed him to be a weird guy who broke rules? He didn't have to stay here with all of the money he was promised!
"I'm sorry, but I have to deliver the message in person," the Outer Disciple said. "The person who gave me the message said that the Core Elder will want to hear the message himself."
The Inner Elder narrowed his eyes and activated his Momentum.
The Outer Disciple's face turned white. In his perception, the Inner Elder had turned into an almighty God who could destroy everything with a wave of his hand.
"Give me the message, and I will forward it," the Inner Elder spoke with authority. "You are not eligible to meet any of the Core Elders."
The Outer Disciple gritted his teeth as he tried to resist his terrified instincts.
"Y-You are p-putting yourself in-in danger," the Outer Disciple said through chittering teeth. "The-the Core Elder will be angry."
The Inner Elder looked at the Outer Disciple for a while longer.
Then, he pulled his Momentum back. "If you're that determined to deliver the message yourself, it's probably important," he commented. "Are you willing to put your future as a Disciple on the line to deliver this message?"
The Outer Disciple sighed and nodded. "Yes."
"Which Core Elder do you need?" the Inner Elder asked.
"Skysand Winterfire, " the Outer Disciple answered.
The Inner Elder furrowed his brows.
Skysand Winterfire was a relatively new member of their Sect, but she had already proven herself to be very capable and reliable.
It was only a matter of time before she joined upper management.
Disturbing her was probably a bad idea.
In the end, the Inner Elder took a deep breath and sent a message to Skysand Winterfire.
Moments later, a beautiful woman with dark blue hair flew up to the Outer Disciple and the Inner Elder.
The Inner Elder politely bowed in front of Skysand Winterfire, who just nodded at him.
"You may leave," she ordered.
The Inner Elder bowed again and wordlessly left.
Then, Skysand Winterfire looked at the Outer Disciple with a neutral expression. "Relay your message."
The Outer Disciple bowed politely before he became a bit red in the face.
"I-I'm sorry, but I can't use voice transmission over such a long distance, and I don't want to speak these words out loud," he said.
Skysand Winterfire furrowed her brows before flying closer to the Outer Disciple.
Then, she took the Outer Disciple's hand. Transcendents had difficulties transmitting their voice in the Supreme World, but as long as there was physical contact, they could do it.
"Speak," Skysand Winterfire transmitted.
"I'm only relaying the message word for word, okay?" he transmitted nervously.
Skysand Winterfire raised an eyebrow.
The Outer Disciple took a deep breath.
"Boom boom explosion guy likes big beautiful beasts and feels lonely," the Outer Disciple transmitted awkwardly.
A small light appeared in Skysand Winterfire's eyes. "Has he paid you already?" she asked via voice transmission.
"Yes!" the Outer Disciple transmitted with excitement, relieved that the Core Elder wasn't offended by the silly message.
The Core Elder nodded and pulled her hand away.
Then, a serious expression appeared on her face. "This message could have been relayed via the regular way," she spoke with an admonishing tone. "I will send a complaint to your Outer Elder."
The Outer Disciple became nervous, even though he knew that things would go this way.
The person who had approached him told him that he would be thrown out of the Organization, but that was a good thing.
As a Transcendent, he had better chances in the actual Supreme World.
With the ten Grade Four Energy Stones, he could buy access to some Law Wells, which would help him in becoming a Fulfilled Transcendent.
Then, as a Fulfilled Transcendent, he could join a Primary Organization.
Skysand Winterfire called someone to escort the Outer Disciple out of the headquarters before making a couple of calls.
Afterwards, she left the Planet and went to one of their Wild Planets.
For a while, she aimlessly flew across the Wild Planet, seemingly searching for something.
"I'm here," she heard someone say via voice transmission.
Star Genesis sighed in relief as she heard Kyle's voice.
But at the same time, she also grew a bit nervous.
She used to belong to the Contrast Empire, and she had always followed the Contrast Empire's rules.
Now, she was going to help a criminal.
Star Genesis shook her head and flew into the ground, right towards Kyle's location.
When Kyle saw Star Genesis again, he smiled. "Thank you," he said. "I knew that you guys were still in the Secondary Sector, but I would have had no idea about how to find you if you hadn't made such a huge announcement."
Star Genesis smiled slightly. "I did that to help you find us."
"I gathered," Kyle answered. "So, how are things? Is everyone still alive?"
Star Genesis nodded. "We are spread across different Organizations. If we three appear together, it would be too suspicious. We all decided that we would make a name for ourselves with our own efforts. We keep in contact with our Communicators."
"That's not such a bad idea," Kyle said. "Maybe you guys can become the new Big Four after the Great Battle."
"That's the plan," Star Genesis answered. "More importantly, what's your plan? What are you going to do about your situation?"
Kyle showed a crafty smile. "I've got a couple of ideas, but I need someone to brainstorm with. Also, depending on what idea we're going with, I might need you to get some resources from the Array of Stars. I'm willing to exchange for them with Energy Stones."
Star Genesis grew interested. "Alright, I'm willing to help you."
"What are your plans?"
