[36 days.]
They were only one word and a number, but it was enough for the Scarlet King to understand that Dark Mask had secured a spot in Silent World’s incursion against Blood Path, which would take place in 36 days.
A sharp light appeared in the Scarlet King’s eyes as he understood it would be just a little over a month before he could reach the Hyperion Continent.
From there, with his identity as Cain Laurifer, one of the most exceptional geniuses of the Godslayer Humankind, and his connection with one of the strongest Sector Dukes of the empire, the Collapsing Lightning Duke, it would be a mere transaction to go back to Gaia.
Of course, the Scarlet King did not delude himself into thinking that hijacking Silent World’s incursion would be easy. Not only would there be several powerful Apotheosis Realm Masters from both sides flooding the battlefield who would see him as an enemy, but a fight between Tier 0 Dark Factions was bound to have the presence of Divine Ascension Masters.
’I can handle the Apotheosis Masters. However, avoiding the Divine Ascension Masters with my current cultivation might be impossible.’
As the Scarlet King formulated his plan, a sharp light appeared in his eyes. There was one person who could help him handle the Divine Ascension Masters, and he had a way to ensure that person could not refuse.
After reaching Evernight, the Scarlet King did not waste time and immediately headed to Astrid’s home. He had contacted the young woman through his computer ring, and she was waiting for him at the entrance.
