?280 Auction event and ring grandpa
Once Rio was done dealing with Dante, he called for Riley and gave her all the instructions for what he wanted from those members of Eclipse.
Since he wanted to develop Eclipse to a level similar to his guild or even stronger than it. They needed a reputation so impeccable that even the name of Eclipse would send shivers down the spines of everyone.
And all of that needed to be started with the floating islands, just under the nose of world association.
Hard, extremely so - but if he wanted to kill Leon and survive the second phase, and all the other calamities that followed it, floating islands needed to be secured under his control.
That's why he's been thinking, making plans for both Angel and Eclipse, buying lands, people, properties, dungeons and anything that could give him a say against the world leaders when the world really turns to shit.
Being strong enough to face off against the whole world was something a protagonist could do relying on his luck, but Rio didn't have that habit.
Lighting up another cigarette Rio came to the balcony and looked at the evening sky and sighed to himself.
"What's the news from our informants at Warzy? Any movement?"
"Nothing big. Most of their bases that we had eyes on have shifted their locations or changed leaders after seeing the constant pressure from everywhere." Riley said as she stood beside him.
"There've been no news from many of the minions we've bought or captured. They're probably all dead by now."
"What about from the list I gave you?" Rio asked and didn't care about their deaths.
"One of them had some movement a few days ago. From what we intercepted they're planning an attack soon. But any other details are not clear."
"Hmm, keep an eye on it. Also place some people inside the temples of Kali and archive of magic."
Apollo was unavoidable, and looting the skill of the Eisjer domain would have to wait until he could leave the academy. So this opportunity was something Rio couldn't let Leon get his hands on.
Since this one could very well fix his only fault in strength and make him shine. Leon has high rank now and lots of mana too, but what he lacks are skills or techniques to utilize that untapped power.
Unlike his family which had library filled with stronger arts to choose from, Leon's family wasn't as rich or resourceful. So he lacked them.
And who can teach the protagonist out of the world skills and techniques, as well as act as his bodyguard for free.
A grandpa in the ring.
A stronger figure belonging to very high ranks, but now in weak and sealed soul form. Just in need for a drop of blood to awaken and be bound to that person for life.
"It would be fun once I rip out another chunk of your luck, little Leon." Rio said to himself and smiled heartily.
(Rip ring grandpa. I'd say may your soul rest in peace. But knowing him, you'll be in pieces, so just enjoy your last peaceful sleep tonight.) System said in its heart and prayed for the pitiful soul.
Yet the next moment it sent a shameless message to Rio.
[Ring grandpa = 50000 system points. Limited exchange offer. Valid for next 24 hours.]
[Hela smiles and says it's time to fulfill your promise.]
[Loki smiles in anticipation as he can't wait to see the gift you prepared for him.]
[Hela and Loki argue over who's gonna be the first to see this gift.]
'The village hasn't settled but the beggars have already arrived.' [Gaanv basa nahi ki bhakari pahle hi aa gaye]
Rio said and swiped all the messages from all these shameless people away from his eyes.
'How can they think of a life in such meaningless ways?' Rio shunned everyone and thought 'At Least let him be of little use to me first.'
