Arran was surprised at the commotion that sprang up just because he had brought out an origin gem. he was confused because he did not understand what the whole commotion was about.
Even Trapp surprisingly expressed his disbelief at Arran as soon as he saw the origin gem.
With shock, Trapp said, "Damn brother, I knew you were quite well off, but I didn't expect you to be capable enough to bring out an origin gem just to pay for your ticket. That's a whole origin gem not the shavings of one... that's so extravagant! Not that I'm complaining or anything, it's just so surprising."
Trapp could not control his emotions, and there was a clear tremble in his voice when he spoke.
Arran was frowning. Although he didn't understand what all the fuss was about, he was not so dense that he couldn't realize he had done something unbelievable.
Arran's confusion was written clearly on his face and Trapp quickly caught on to it. Not too surprised anymore by Arran's
Just as Arran was considering Trapp's offer, one of the soldiers guarding the platform suddenly addressed them and said, "Excuse me sirs, but can you hurry and move along? There are still a lot of people waiting in line behind you two to enter."The guard reminded Arran and Trapp that they were holding up the line and they should move along. Usually in this kind of situation, Arran and Trapp would have both been thrown to the back of the line to delay everybody. But this did not happen. Instead, when the guard spoke to Arran, there was even a respectful tone in his voice. It could be seen that even the guards of Fort Crawford, who could be quite unreasonable at times, could only behave cautiously around Arran.They thought that Arran being able to bring out so many precious gems one after the other meant that he probably had a powerful background. And not only did Arran have a background that was so powerful, but his status was not low there at all. If not, he wouldn't
The bold warning text written in bright red letters revealed Arran's encrypted status to everybody gathered at the entrance platform. This caused a wave of silence to fall among everybody there. This was because the shock they just received was more than when Arran had revealed his incredible wealth.But the most shocking part of all this was seeing the seal of the Aeth Royal Council emblazoned boldly on the warning notice. This meant that not only was Arran's identity special, but the force he belonged to was the overlord force of the entire realm, the Aeth Civilization.Immediately, dread filled the entire platform, and people's faces paled in fear. This was especially so for those who had developed hostile intentions towards Arran before. At the same time, they were relieved that they didn't reveal their intentions at all.Or so they thought...Out of everybody there, the only person who was still behaved relatively normal was Trapp, who looked at Arra
Trapp raised his hands and removed the hood covering his face. At once, Trapp's extremely handsome face was revealed to everybody there.The whole crowd fell into stunned silence as everybody was caught off guard.Nobody had been expecting the face hidden underneath that thick hood to be like this. In fact, what almost everybody had been expecting was an ugly face that was very rough and hard and filled with hideous pockmarks and heavy pustules.These people couldn't be blamed for having such thoughts. When a person completely covered up their face underneath a heavy hood that prevented anybody from spying on their appearance, people would usually attribute it to them having something to hide and in most cases, it was because they were very ugly and dreaded the thought of others seeing their faces.There was no helping it as this is how people usually thought. Even if one suspected that Trapp was very handsome under the hood, they would have dismissed it
Name: Valerian TrappOrganization: Galaxy rangersTitle: Shadow rangerRank: SpecialThe following above was what was displayed for everybody to see. It was simple and direct, but the impact it had on the whole crowd was so great that it started a great commotion in the small hall.On the virtual display, apart from the shadowy mass of darkness that represented Trapp's image, there was a large logo on it. This logo was made up of bright clusters of stars swirling together to form a nebulous galaxy. the logo was very simple and it was just a basic representation of the universe in its primal form. But as simple as the logo is, there was nobody in the entire universe who would not recognize it on sight.The logo belonged to the galaxy rangers organization. they were a true behemoth in the universe.When we say the universe, we are referring to the vast universe made up of countless realms and not the universe of any single realm. These
"Wait!" Trapp said aloud to Arran."What is it?" Arran asked."We still haven't come to a decision about what we should do with the rest of the money." Trapp reminded."Remember what I said before? That we should employ somebody using the change leftover from what you paid so that they could be of help to us. Well, I feel this idea is really good. Trust me, with an additional helper, the benefits we gain in the main area will be much greater. Right now is the time to choose from among those here before others can get to them first. It's even the best, since there is enough to employ one more person with the rest of the change.""So what do you say?" Trapp said to Arran.Arran looked at Trapp suspiciously. He didn't understand why Trapp was so adamant that they find somebody to work for them after paying for their ticket."What's the reason behind this suggestion of yours?" Arran questioned Trapp."What exactly is it that goes on in th
With the guards making a move, peace returned to the area and Arran was free to observe his target.Pointing his hand at the person of interest, Arran called out once again, "You, the one with the gray skin, you're the one I'm referring to... come up, let me get a look at you."With Arran giving a detailed description of who he was calling to this time, there was no way to misunderstand him anymore.At once, the people gathered in the direction Arran pointed to immediately cleared a way through them, thus finally revealing the hidden figure that was sandwiched between them.There was no way to mistake this person, as she was the only gray-skinned individual in the surrounding area.As soon as this person was revealed, Arran finally got a clear look at her. Arran found her face to be a bit familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before. Trying to recall, Arran finally remembered where he had seen her face.It was when Arran had first reveal
"What is your name?" Arran asked the Heluimite girl."Sadie," she answered simply.Arran looked closely at Sadie. Her face was squarish and rough with subtle hints of delicateness in them. Her eyes shone brightly like a torch and she gave off a bold and unrestrained bearing.Knowing that Arran was observing her, Sadie did not shy away from his gaze and instead looked at his head on. She didn't have any of the cold and cruel feelings about her that Trapp described as inherent in their race.Arran's first impression of Sadie was already good. He felt that having her by his side might not be a bad idea. Still, he had to know more about her before coming to a final decision."Sadie, tell me if I were to hire you, what exactly can you do for me?""What are you good at?"Responding to Arran's question, Sadie said one single word."Fighting!"'Eh!'Arran was surprised at this answer.Looking at Sadie incredulously
Let us rewind time a bit...During the time when Arran's identity was being verified in Fort Crawford, back on the Aeth home planet, an alert signal was triggered at the same time.Just as this signal was triggered, it was immediately picked up by the relevant department. Before long, a series of predetermined strings of processes was conducted to verify the authenticity of the alert. After everything was done and it was confirmed to be a valid alert, this signal was immediately filed and sent further up the chain to be verified once more.This process was repeated a few times before, finally, it reached the desk of the council members.Currently, due to dealing with the aftermaths of the invasion of the shades and the subsequent retaliation of the Aeth, the council members were swamped with work and they were too busy to take care of matters that were not important.Of the thirteen council members, the only one with some free time on his hands was
