Chapter 417: Departure [Available for Free on Patreon!]

Zeix nodded and followed Jay to the Colosseum.

The seats were already packed. It wasn’t just the Chosen from Orion Vanguard or those from Cipher Guild, who had now joined Jay’s faction. Members of the Regnant Court were present as well, along with many who still hadn’t pledged themselves to any faction.

Word had spread quickly that Jay had something important to say, and no one wanted to miss it.

With less than ten minutes left before the Bloodline Realm opened, Jay stepped into the center of the arena. He rose several meters into the air and remained silent, his gaze sweeping across the entire Colosseum.

Even the three Tournament Managers were there. Jay didn’t give them any special attention. Once all eyes were on him, he began.

The first thing Jay did was extend Party invites to everyone in his faction, including those from Cipher Guild.

With Rule Mastery only at Stage-5, a Party created by Jay or Kay was normally limited to 100 members. But by expending additional Spirit Energy for each extra member, that limit could be pushed further.

The cost came with a catch. Jay had to spend 24 Spirit Energy per person to maintain their Party status for 24 hours.

With nearly 6000 members under his faction after Cipher Guild joined, it required around a total of 150,000 Spirit Energy.

Jay had already recovered from his earlier expenditure from creating Phantom Replicas. Without batting an eye, he expended it all in one go, and everyone received a notification invite.

He then addressed the crowd.

“Everyone from Orion Vanguard should see a Party invite. Once you join, you’ll gain access to a safety measure that can save your life.”

He then proceeded to explain how the Phantom Replicas would activate when their lives were in danger. To make it clear, he had MJ display a recording of his earlier test with Rex and Akor.

As for the Reconnaissance Probes and the Camouflage Veil Devices, Zeix had already briefed everyone about their purpose. Jay didn’t go into details again.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

“None of you need to worry about operating those devices. Wherever you’re teleported, just stay in place. Take them out of your storage, and MJ will handle the rest through your Orion Relays.”

After a brief pause, Jay continued, “There’s a chance you’ll run into native lifeforms in the Bloodline Realm. Most of them might not think twice before attacking. If they somehow spot you despite the Camouflage, the Phantom Replicas will handle it… But you all already know their uses are limited. I can only do so much.”

Hey Folks, sorry for the inconvenience. I wanted to give a small update regarding Volume 4 and future chapter releases.

To be honest, because of piracy concerns, I seriously considered not releasing the remaining chapters of Volume 4 publicly anymore. But at the same time, I don’t want the current readers who have been supporting and following the story consistently to miss out either.

So from Chapter 401 onwards, I’ll continue doing weekly releases here, but only around the first one-fourth of each chapter will be posted publicly.

To read the full chapter, you can simply join my Patreon’s free tier. The complete chapters will be available there, and it doesn’t cost anything to access them.

You can give it a try if you’d like. And honestly, more people joining the Patreon, even through the free tier, would really encourage and support me to keep going consistently.

Thank you for all the support so far. I truly appreciate everyone who’s been reading the journey until now.
