The air shimmered, resulting in an illusory elder appearing in the skies. He had a calm face, and his golden eyes were gentle, he was the picture of a docile old man.

"Young one, you should have some moderation."

Dyon saw that the elder attempted to take the key with him, but this time, Dyon hadn't been incapacitated by Faith like he had been against Diasho Ken. In addition, Diasho Ken wasn't a key wielder, that right was left to his elder brother on the dao floors. Since the opportunity was before him, Dyon would obviously do as he said.

"Feel free to take his body, but leave my things here." Dyon's rage had long since calmed. His expression didn't change as his soul qi surged forward.

The beautiful tower key hung in the air. Just like the key of other quadrants, the Sapientia's key was protected. However, in the face of [Devour], what protections could survive?

"[Devour]."

The old man's expression changed. He had been banking on the key's protections this entire time. He knew that he didn't have the right to directly interfere with matters of the Epistemic Tower – those were the rules, after all. But, he could bend them a little to encompass the key with Primus' corpse. Who would have known that Dyon had the ability to shatter the key's protections before he even acted?

The world could only watch as the key fell into Dyon's hands.

"I hope the Sapientia know when to piss off, or else I don't mind exposing other things." Dyon calmly released Primus' neck, taking the key into his spatial ring.

The old man frowned slightly at Dyon's words.

"I do recognize your voice old man. Weren't you the one who tried to stop my Amphorae from saving Clara? You seem to have a propensity for trying to get in my way… I hope that trend won't continue."

Dyon smiled, but it was so cold that it felt as though he was sending shivers down the spines of everyone who watched on.

"The matters you pulled with Sapientia Auction are cute. Though… It doesn't matter much to me. If you'd like to bring others to march on toward death with you, I don't mind playing along. I just hope you remember…"

Suddenly, the old man's image waved furiously, as though his connection was about to be cut off.

"Oops. Looks like I didn't time it as well as I would have liked."

"You…!" The old man's gentle expression stiffened. Through his projection, the sound of savage explosions resounded.

Dyon smiled as he thought back to a memory from several decades ago.

[This array was constructed 3 563 782 years ago by the 24th White Mother…]

[The original purpose was to act as a gift to the Sapientia family…]

[The 24th White Mother, due to suspicions for the family, created an extra 30 as a failsafe…]

Dyon hadn't set off all 1000 arrays, he wasn't a mass murderer. In addition, he wanted to push the Sapientia to the brink, but not over the edge. He wasn't prepared to deal with their true power just yet. He only wanted to escort them out the door a bit… forcefully.

Dyon had caused only 1 of the 1000 planet grade arrays that were gifted to the Sapientia to explode. His purpose for doing so was multifold.

Firstly, it cut off the connection the Sapientia within the tower quadrants had to the Sapientia in the outer quadrants. Because Dyon had the master key array, he could use Little Yang and Yin's historical path time will to learn truths about the rest of the arrays.

Thanks to this, Dyon knew that the Sapientia Quadrant only had 1 of the 1000 arrays while the remaining 999 were located in the Sapientia Outer Quadrants.

Dyon knew immediately why this was. That array, it was how they received orders from their true base. So… Dyon destroyed it. However, that wasn't before he set up a few things.

Though Dyon hated the Sapientia, he didn't believe they all deserved to die. Instead, he used the Master Key array to control the range of the blast. This resulted in Planet Sapientia becoming a ticking time bomb.

The structure of the planet itself had become compromised. In as little as another few days, it would implode in on itself, destroying the Sapientia's home. This would leave the Sapientia with no choice but to relocate. Unfortunately for them, there were only two choices along such a path.

The first was to leave to another planet within the same universe, and the second was to enter the Epistemic Tower and hopefully receive help from one of the other quadrants. Either way, Sapientia Quadrant would lose its Epistemic Tower because the destruction of Planet Sapientia would destroy their Gate.

If Dyon's previous actions had pushed the Sapientia into a corner, he was practically kicking them while they were down now. If the Sapientia wanted to continue their plans for the tower quadrants, they would need to expose themselves to steal a tower key from another quadrant, but if they did so, they would be playing right into Dyon's hands.

If the Sapientia lived in a world where everyone knew they weren't as innocent as they pretended to be, Dyon's next steps would be far easier.

The gaze the old man looked toward Dyon with completely changed. If before, he believed Dyon was an imm.a.t.u.r.e brat with some backing and an inability to control his temper, he now felt that Dyon was a demon in sheep's clothing.

'I may have acknowledged that you're playing on a bigger game than I am, but best believe I'll have a strangle hold on my small 2x2 piece of the board by the time I'm through.'
