The battle between Sadie and the Splinter Swordsman, Cell, was reaching its end. Almost everybody in the audience could sense this. If the people watching the battle could, it was especially so for the two of them involved in the battle.Both opponents knew that the match would be concluded in the next few minutes and a winner would be decided between the two of them.They both knew they had pushed themselves to the limit of their ability and had fought with everything they had. But even at that, none of them were able to triumph over the other. Now, after fighting for a long time, they were not at their peak state anymore and a single mistake could result in the match ending.Between Sadie and her opponent, Sadie actually seemed to be in a much better state than her opponent. Although Sadie's stamina had been significantly depleted, she wasn't as affected as the swordsman was.Right now, the swordsman was clearly having trouble keeping his breath stable

A few hours had gone past since Sadie won her first bidding war. Currently, it was already approaching the day cycle station time. This is the time when most people would still be resting in bed but in the main area of the station and, more precisely, the auction house, various activities were still going on and the place was lit up like it was daytime. This was a place that never slept, no matter the time of day, and the hustle and bustle of everyday life continued.On the 500th floor, the central island was still as bright as ever and the huge projection board still displayed numerous items that were being placed for auction. Even at this time, bids were still being placed and people were still on the lookout for treasures to make a profit from.Somewhere on the 500th floor, in a dark corner that was of the ocean that was not as brightly lit as the rest of the floor, there was a medium-sized island floating silently on the surface of the sea. There were no lights sho

In a brightly lit street on the central island of the 500th floor of the auction house... Arran was currently standing in front of a stall that was selling brightly colored stone, each giving off a faint trace of essence energy. these stones shone with a multicolored light like a kaleidoscope. They were exceptionally beautiful and mesmerizing, and the stones drew a large crowd who were attracted to them to the stall.These stones were called burning rainbow stones, and they were a kind of energy stones that were rarely found in the universe.The burning rainbow stones were not very valuable, even if they were rare. It didn't exactly have a powerful effect that could be used, nor did it provide many benefits to others. The energy in the burning rainbow stones could not be absorbed and since the energy in it was too little, it could not be used to set of formations or arrays or serve as an energy source for machines.In the end, the burning rainbow stones were sim

Arran took a few steps back as he looked at the man with a shocked expression while pointing a finger at him with his jaw dropping to the ground. His actions were very exaggerated and caught the attention of everybody in the street, causing them to turn around and look at the duo. Still, this only went to show just how much shock Arran was in.Finally, Arran managed to calm down. Knowing that he had successfully pulled a lot of attention to himself, Arran forced himself not to react in any way and he approached the man while lowering his head.When the people that were watching saw that nothing was going to happen between the two of them, they quickly went back to doing their own things as they minded their business.Finally, not many people were watching Arran and the man anymore, although there were still a few people paying attention to them. They were mostly the people that were gathered near the stall selling the blazing rainbow stones.At this momen

When Arran heard rocky's words, he evaded his gaze for a moment as he replied, "Due to some unfortunate circumstances, I disappeared for a few days before suddenly appearing here. I didn't intend to suddenly be thrust into the universe, so this is actually an unplanned trip for me?" Arran thought for a brief moment before deciding to answer like this. He could have decided to tell rocky the truth about how he had ended up here and his identity, but he decided against it after a thought. It wasn't that Arran didn't believe that rocky was his brother... no, Arran believed that there were probably a lot of ways to disguise oneself as another person but it should be virtually impossible to disguise the bloodline resonance that he currently felt with rocky. not to mention that rocky was somebody he had never met before, so disguising himself as his brother was not a wise option. Arran was sure rocky was once of his father's offspring and was thus his brother. The reason h
