It goes without saying that Hiro discovered another limitation on his achievement points after he started saving up.

If his source of points was faith energy, there was a hard restriction that he could only harvest 500,000 points per month, while the rest was attributed to the river of faith energy directly.

Nonetheless, stocking up on 18 million points in three years was good enough for him.

He hadn't expected a completed game would take so much of his time, and he would only enter the final phase of the game after three decades of hard grinding.

Hiro brought up his hand.

The reward for completing the game, Return of the Demon Ancestor, appeared in his hand.

"Should I use this now or wait for a while?"

Honestly speaking, after living in the Demon Realm for three years and his frequent contact with Asmir, Hiro didn't have any inhibitions against coexisting with demons.

In the past, he couldn't bring himself to separate an area of his pocket dimension for demonic energy and demons, mainly because he didn't want to explain himself to the prospective members of the Unfathomables.

However, after witnessing how Asmir carried herself as a lord, Hiro understood that he didn't need to explain himself at all.

It was his dimension and his territory, so he didn't need to give way to anyone.

…

Human world, Nexus Country.

Under Arabella's lead, Sciatis Holdings Limited took full advantage of the virtual reality game, Seeker's Legend.

Following the schedule and after the VR Helmet technology was reverse-engineered to 80%, the company released the Demon Ancestor open beta on the Western Hemisphere servers and the closed beta on the Eastern Hemisphere servers.

With the connections from Nebula Electronics and the trade routes from Wind Blessed, the promotions for the expansion pack and the prospect of regional servers were hyped to the extreme.

These must have been the busiest three years of Arabella's short life, and only she knew how many assassination attempts she survived.

With Juvia helping her from behind the scenes in the last year, many governmental policies were issued in succession to smooth out Arabella's operations in the capital.

Yes, Juvia was now in a leadership position in the capital, and although her position was low in the grand scheme of things, she had amassed many favors from higher-ranking leaders.

It was easy to accomplish after she "accidentally" revealed her identity as a Paranormal to a leader who was on good terms with her.

Intelligent, beautiful, and endowed with supernatural powers—the government couldn't turn down someone with such prospects.

Although Juvia lost most of her ordinary connections due to high-security protocol measures, she was still capable of helping Arabella.

Furthermore, the two weren't worried about getting caught because their scheme spanned the entire gaming industry.

It was without a doubt that the S-gear technology pushed for the development of gaming platforms, and when Juvia expressed her stance to support the gaming platform as a whole—especially with the time dilation breakthrough as the core of her argument—no one would think that she's deliberately helping the Sciatis Holdings Limited.

Moreover, their investigations revealed that the owner of the company wasn't even present at his own company, and he contacted his employees through a secure cloud network.

After the cooperation between the company and the Committee of Commerce was terminated, Ei hacked into their systems and deleted all data related to Hiro's true identity, together with hundreds of classified documents.

The least of everyone's worries was the lost data—they were more concerned about the hacker's ability to get past their advanced firewalls and thrash their servers.

All in all, many factors played a key role in the expansion of Hiro's company, and the most clear of them all was the impending war of dimensions.

…

"Battle Priestess Berlin," a soft voice called out from nowhere in particular. "Have you let go of your obsessions?"

Bathed in divine energy, Berlin slowly opened her eyes. Seated on a high platform with numerous statues of benevolent, merciful entities, a tight frown adorned her face.

An indistinct silhouette appeared in her mind, but it was fuzzy and unclear.

"I'm not obsessed," Berlin spoke with seven parts doubt and three parts conviction. "I remember clearly—someone helped me on that day, and I'm sure they're somehow connected to the Babylon incident!"

"Enough!" the voice resounded, and this time, it exhibited a sense of grandiose and profound majesty.

"If you persist in your ways even after meditation on the sacred platform for an entire year, you leave me no choice but to crucify you and let you experience eighty-one days of purification in divine flames."

Berlin shuddered, and she bit her bottom lip as a searing headache wrenched her thoughts.

After so much time had passed and there wasn't a sign of Babylon's presence, the Holy Church and the Government were losing patience.

They believed that at most, that person was just passing by or he didn't exist to begin with.

One had to know that the information network of the Holy Church covered the entire Western and Eastern Hemispheres, especially after the so-called unification of religions.

It was an unprecedented alliance of powers that gathered countless schools of thought in one place.

"We've allowed you to investigate the Rosch family and their activities in the past three decades, and we overlooked it when you touched some of their bottom lines.

"Although the Rosch is just one Paranormal family, how many families are there in the capital and the Nexus Country, let alone the entire Western Hemisphere?

"Trust me, some people are more anxious to find Babylon and the so-called Unfathomables than we are."

Sigh…

Berlin lowered her head, clenching her fists till her knuckles turned white.

"We will send you to overlook some of our branches overseas, make sure the evacuation of our devoted believers is done smoothly. This world will soon experience a huge change, and Tier-4 powerhouses will no longer be restricted from taking action.

"We've come to an understanding with Master Osmond, and we will leave the capital to him. Whatever happens here, it's between him and the government, so our presence here is redundant.

"Little girl, some things can no longer be kept a secret from the public's eyes, and during these times of unrest, it's our duty as the Lords' representatives to bring light and salvation to the lost. If you're confused, how can you guide others?

"If you don't wake up from your confused state of mind in one week, you leave me no other choice…"

The voice faded, and the divine energy disappeared.

Soon, the room descended into darkness.

Bang!

In the darkness, the sound of heavy punches and cracking stones echoed out.

Hiro, disguised as Sitri with his cosmetics, arrived at the throne room where the high staircase bathed in divine light was situated.

He looked up, sensing the great power from above.

"Your progress has surprised this seat," Asmir's voice descended, calm and soothing.

Hiro smiled faintly and tucked his hands away into the pockets of his pants.

"It's nothing," Hiro responded lightly, sounding very humble. "I'll be departing to my stronghold later today, but I was wondering if you had any instructions in mind for me."

"This seat has a few things to tell you, now that you've mentioned it," Asmir didn't know why Hiro waited for three years before taking the post as a Stronghold Lord, but she contributed it to his lacking strength.

Now that he was a Tier-4 powerhouse, he was indeed qualified to oversee a stronghold.

"This seat is strong enough to overlook the little schemes of my subjects, but you're different. Hence, you should exhibit caution when selecting your generals and trusted advisors in your new stronghold.

"Another matter, if you feel like expanding your influence with conquests in the future, it's fine as long as you don't encroach upon this seat's territory. You can expand in the direction of the sea.

"Further, the Giant Demon should be approaching the black coastline in a few months, and he will surely try to settle down his floating stronghold on land. A conflict between you two is inevitable.

"Once you leave my stronghold, we can cooperate on some matters, but don't expect this seat to involve myself in all your problems.

"Finally, the human world will soon evolve into a realm like our Demon Realm, and a war between our Ancestors and their Deities is inevitable. To prepare for the war, the Ancestors are sure to prepare many vassals of faith energy, and letters of conscription might arrive at any time. If you know what's good for you, don't go against the edict of the Ancestors.

"This shall be all, you may leave now."

Asmir didn't wait for Hiro to ask any questions, waving her hand from within the divine light.

Hiro felt the space around him twisting and the next moment, he was in the sky above and beyond the stronghold.

He could see the Demon Tower in the distance, and he blinked in confusion.

She seemed rather, impatient. Hiro felt both confused and amused. To think that he was disposed of just like that after everything he did for her.

Sigh… The life of a subject is so tiresome.
