Dyon's lips pursed slightly. 'What a moronic system.'

This was his first thought. It was just too ridiculous.

'Runners'? So they had people ȧssigned to sprint through the battlefield and deliver pills? Why didn't they prepare a stash of pills for battle purposes?

The only reason Dyon could think of was that they had never expected for Zaneta City to enter a battle. From the very beginning, it was a puppet state anyway.

But, even then, wasn't this a little too irresponsible? Even if Dyon hadn't been aware of how powerful that pirate gang had been, there was no way they hadn't. Shouldn't they be prepared for this possibility?

'… Something else is going on here. There's something diverting their attention from protecting this city the way they should… But what is that…?'

"Alright.. I'll be there in a moment."

Dyon closed the door without allowing Piers to respond, looking at the box in his hand.

Opening it, he found that it was a small spatial treasure.

'Oh? How rare.'

Dyon knew how rare spatial treasures were on the Immortal Plane. Yet, Pill Sword Mountain handed one out to all of their Venerables?

No, that shouldn't be it. There's another reason. From Piers' reaction, this reward wasn't normal. That means someone was aware of his performance and it seemed he did pretty good. Not bad.

The box had a space of half a cubic meter. It was very small compared to what Dyon was used to, bȧrėly the size of an average box. But, there wasn't much in it to begin with. There was a robe, a badge, and a small golden cauldron that looked like paper weight with the number '3' branded on it.

Dyon was completely confused by the paper weight cauldron. It was exquisitely designed and he faintly felt that it was the most precious thing within the small space. But, it didn't seem to have any functions. It wasn't a real cauldron, nor did it have any abilities. Dyon's first guess was correct, it really was just an over the top paper weight, the kind rich people with too much money bought.

'Three? What's that supposed to mean?'

Dyon took it out and rolled it over in his hand. It was extraordinarily heavy too, even he found it hard to hold it up. If he bashed it over someone's head, it would probably have pretty good results.

If those who knew how valuable this 'paper weight' was knew that Dyon took it for little more than a good brick, they'd probably faint from anger.

In the end, Dyon couldn't figure anything out, so he set it aside, pulling out a beautiful set of white robes.

'How pretentious… I like it.' Dyon grinned.

The robe was woven of delicate silver-white filaments. It had wide sleeves, enough to fit ten arms, and came with a golden belt that actually housed a larger hidden space within it.

After checking, Dyon realized that it wasn't just one hidden space, but ten. Each was extremely small and only had the height, length and width of a slightly larger than average palm. But, they came with pill preservation arrays that were actually quite potent. Dyon could actually see himself using it.

'This robe also seems different from what these Venerables wear… If they had something like this, I don't believe for a moment that they wouldn't wear it at all times.'

By now, if Dyon didn't realize that something was weird, he wouldn't be Dyon. He realized that he must have made a major splash. It seemed the storm he had stirred up could come to collect at any time. He had to stay on his toes.

Finally, there was the badge. It was shaped as a golden branch with a singular golden leaf on it. One leaf represented a Lower Alchemy Venerable, twelve would represent a Peak Alchemy God.

But once again, the branches and leaves he had seen to now were all black, completely unlike his own.

Dyon snapped his fingers and got rid of the concealment array around Saru and Lilith, only to realize they had clothed them. He could only hide the disappointment in his heart.

Suddenly, Dyon grinned. Seeing this smile, the two women could only shake their heads. It seemed just like Madeleine before them, they knew trouble was coming when Dyon smiled like this.

"They sent me all of this stuff, if I didn't show off a little bit, wouldn't I be looking my nose down at their kind intentions?"

Saru and Lilith blushed as Dyon unabashedly stripped in front of them. His body seemed carved of glistening bronze. But this time, it had nothing to do with his constitution and was just his natural skin tone. They had to look away to slow their own heart beats.

But, when they gathered up the courage to look back, they found themselves speechless once more.

It was easy to ignore Dyon's looks when all he wore were sweats. But, when he wore robes like this, he seemed to outshine everything around him.

The gorgeous white robes, the golden belt around his waist, the delicately forged branch attached to his ŀȧpel… It was the perfect image of a young demi-god.

"Little Chibi."

An excited chatter suddenly came as a light flew from Dyon's forehead. An adorable bouncing cauldron with a chubby little girl peaking from its lid came out.

"It's about time you let this great Aunty out! I want to have some fun too!" Chibi's adorable voice made the two women smile beside themselves.
