Chapter 225 Canis Major Token

Arthur's eyes opened, revealing what seemed to be an entirely different man. It was exactly like he'd heard and experienced; the tenth floor was truly akin to rebirth. The possibilities of life were explored in depth, while the tower provided hints for one's path.

However, in Arthur's case, the matter was rather complicated.

Unlike in his former life, when the tenth floor recommended he focus on the path of magic, this time, it showed nothing. Not a single objective idea was discovered, with it merely being fleeting dreams of possible lifetimes.

Arthur was still uncertain of what his run through the tenth floor symbolized, but he was only worried about the results.

[1. Arthur Solace: ???]

[2. Sun Wukong: ???]

[3. Jade Emperor: ???]

A pleasant smile blossomed on the crimson-eyed man's face as he glanced at the results. Although the contents of the judgment were not revealed, Arthur was pleasantly surprised that he was in the first place.

Even the Divine Rankers couldn't guarantee a high place on the tenth floor due to its mysterious nature and undisclosed criteria of rankings.

[User has received 50,000 Tokens, Necklace Of Valor, and the Canis Major Token.]

[An announcement has been issued to all players.]

[Ten Constellation Tokens have been gathered. Gathering three more will result in an impossible phenomenon.]

'Sun Wukong and the Jade Emperor...' Arthur muttered internally, glancing at the leaderboard while maintaining a smile on his face. Suddenly, his expression morphed into one of mystery, after which he let out a sigh.

He glanced at the rewards, nodding in satisfaction. The 50,000 Tokens were quite valuable, especially after Kai's recruitment, which cost over 100,000 Tokens. For Arthur to revive his funds was his ultimate priority.

Other than that, the Canis Major Token was also quite valuable. Since he'd gathered ten tokens, many parties would attempt to strike him down. However, his alliance with the Ganghan Guild would prevent such an outcome to a certain extent.

For one to successfully gather the ten tokens Arthur had in his possession, they would need to contest with the Saint Sealing Devil, which was almost impossible for anyone other than the Divine Rankers.

Also, no one would strike Arthur before he obtained all thirteen tokens, because only then would it be worth it.

'Three more floors, and a small-scale war will begin because of me,' thought Arthur, smirking as he imagined the possibilities. He planned on reaping as much as he possibly could, but he would probably need to split it with the Ganghan Guild.

Then again, he could probably harvest a few million tokens.

It seemed like an absurd amount, but for those on higher floors, it was pocket change. For high-rank clans, hundreds of millions of tokens were merely equivalent to a small transaction. They made massive deals.

'Can I sell you?' Arthur inquired, glancing at Skofnung. If the Devils Skofnung summoned couldn't be controlled or manipulated, wouldn't it be better simply to sell Skofnung and receive an appropriate amount of tokens?

[The Demonic Blade 'Skofnung' shivers.]

[The Demonic Blade 'Skofnung' threatens its wielder, conveying through an emotional transmission its plan to summon powerful Devils on its own accord.]

'Bitch,' Arthur replied, clicking his tongue. He quickly packed his belongings before heading to the sixth floor. Once he arrived, he was greeted politely by the members of the Ganghan Guild, who bowed.

"Why is he being treated so well?"

"Is he some kind of young master? The Saint Sealing Devil had an illegitimate affair?"

"He doesn't even have a wife, dumbass!"

Many onlookers whispered under their breaths, wondering who this mysterious person was. Why were the members of the Ganghan Guild treating the man so well, given their usual, cold personality?n.-0velB1n

"Wait, that's Arthur Solace!" A man shouted, recognizing the rather distinct, crimson eyes. The crowd broke into murmurs, wondering if that was truly Arthur Solace. The sea of onlookers swarmed the crimson-eyed man.

"If you step closer, we will interpret that as a declaration of war," one of the Ganghan Guild members suddenly stepped forward, unsheathing his sword before igniting his blue-colored Sword Aura.

A cold breeze encompassed the area, with spikes of ice emerging from the ground. Many of the Ganghan Guild members quickly assumed a position, arranging themselves carefully for a possible battle.

Arthur chuckled, stepping forth as he placed his hand on the shoulder of the man. "It's fine."

Although hesitant, the member relented to Arthur's orders, stepping to the side while sheathing his sword. He bowed, to which the crimson-eyed man nodded in acknowledgment. "Yes, I am Arthur Solace."

"For those who have questions, I shall stay here for a few minutes. Ask away."

'I can't let the mystery of my identity grow to the point where people disregard the topic,' Arthur muttered internally, maintaining a gentle smile externally. 'Although I've hidden it well using fake names, I don't believe that's possible anymore.'

'Some people will still be unaware of it, though.'

A few seconds passed, and a middle-aged man dressed in a suit stepped forward. Beside him was a woman holding a rather crude-looking device, which seemed capable of recording events that occurred.

"Mr. Solace, what is your relationship with the Saint Sealing Devil?"

The sea of onlookers seemed visibly uncomfortable, as if fearing the wrath of the Ganghan Guild members, who seemed unhappy at the mention of their leader. However, they obediently followed Arthur's commands.

"The Saint Sealing Devil and I are allies, and will stay as allies during the upcoming war between Asgard and the Devas."

"The Ganghan Guild is acting as a mercenary group. Will you be joining them?"

"I don't feel the need to answer that question."

The man nodded. "Next question, then. Is it true that you have a hidden affair with King Bahamut's daughter, Eleanor?"

The crowd turned silent, while all eyes turned to face Arthur. Expressions of utter shock and confusion were the norm. Arthur's expression crumpled like a piece of paper. 'Did she say something to the public?'

"That is absolutely false. Instead, I wouldn't engage with King Bahamut's daughter for all the wealth and power in the world."
