Nobody reacted for some time until everyone nodded their heads, agreeing with my proposal.
"Now, we need to fill the seats in the Orden... we are still lacking 5 seats... the Seat of the Fool is not included as I am taking over. Now, how is the progress with the potential recruits that were discussed last time?"
I asked, sneaking peaks at Enryuu and Okhwang; while the rest of the members either looked interested or disinterested, or, in the case of Tubal Cain, it was impossible to see what he was thinking about.
Cadis Etrama di Raizel was always impossible to read, but that was a trait of countless members of the Blood Species across the Endless Void.
"I sent one of my avatars to that old monster with a proposal... surprisingly, he agreed, though he will attend the next meeting and not this one."
The man about whom Deus Ex Machina was talking about was an extremely mighty cultivator who reached Tier 13 and became Universe Master in his home Universe.
He was one of few Tier 13 existences who managed to fight even Tier 14 entities and was extremely powerful, practicing a very powerful cultivation system.
His name was unknown, but everyone called him Old Man Extermination.
Even I heard about him from different sources across the Endless Void...he was the overlord of an ancient faction known as the Demon Sealer Sect.
He was now living as a reclusive hermit and ancestor of his sect, but there was no denying that he was extremely powerful, and across the Endless Void, he was considered as someone who was bound to become Paragon.
"And settlement?"
I then turned my attention to Weissmann, who relocated his Dresden Arcanum Empire to another Universe, which I helped locate.
When I looked at the silver-haired man who had a clueless expression, I noticed subtle differences in his persona...
He has gotten stronger... much stronger than he was last time.
And this was not speaking of just energy-wise, because in terms of raw power, he seemed to be at least thrice stronger than he was, but right now Weissmann was giving off a very dangerous feeling, a feeling that he previously wasn't giving off.
"The Universe where the Dresden Arcanum Empire has been relocated has a very peculiar Sorcery stylized Power System. After incorporating some of their aspects into our own Arcane System, the forces of Dresden are steadily growing... I even managed to reach higher ends of Tier 12 after stagnating for several thousands of years."
Weissmann answered with a charming smile...
The Universe they relocated to was one of the magically powerful Universe and had a very old and complex Sorcery-based Power System, which was highly compatible with the Arcane Systme that the Arcanists practiced.
"That is a good thing... now for the further development, we need to establish further cooperation between our Universes and start extracting resources and exchanging them."
Some of the resources that could help people advance were still outside their reach and for a long time, the Longinus Dreizzhen Orden wasn't functioning as it should, so that was something that I needed to change, but without being an official leader, I couldn't.
That variable was changed today.
"Most of our Universes are pretty much far away from each other... and the Kadath Universe is essentially shielded. Still, we could establish some sort of commerce hub because all of our Universes are within the same area."
I stated that others agreed with my proposal because establishing a commerce hub in the area will not only boost the economic power of our Universes but also increase the political influence we can exert on the Universes in the same area.
In our area, there weren't any organizations that had an influence on the Endless Void as a whole; such organizations were rare, and most of them were stationed in other areas.
All of them were supported by Paragons and some of them even had connections to the three great powers.
Sage Dynasty, Holy City and Void Association.
Those were factions supported by Singularities, the three most powerful entities in the Endless Void that closest to the omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent entities that were the most powerful.
All three of them were essentially reclusive hermits that built their presence in the Endless Void for countless cycles and all of them were connected to a whole bunch of Tier 14 and Tier 13 experts...
"Do you have some candidates?"
Okhwang asked as he looked at me as I nodded in agreement because, for past years, I was searching for powerful Universes within the same area where we could spread our influence.
"Yes, I found a suitable Universe for a candidate. The limit is Tier 14, a Universe capable of bearing a Paragon and most important, in that Universe, there is a key to my ascension to Tier 14."
During my seclusion, I found a Universe which, ironically though, held a plane named Baator and had naturally born Devil species...
This wouldn't be something worthy of resources and energy into the operation, but they have naturally born Archdevils...
Compared to the devils of the Astral Boundary Universe, which were artificially created from the start, this was something new.
They are my key to the ascension to Tier 13 and not only that; they are the key; their Bloodlines and DNA were the keys to the completion of the devil's species as while and were the removal of their bloodline and racial restrictions.
"Then how do you plan to begin the intervention?"
Entering other Universe was always a hassle...
Especially the ones that were very powerful and were capable of bearing entities at Tier 13 and above; those were almost impossible to enter and there was a very high possibility of such experts already existing there.
"I created a ritual that will mask one of my descendants as one of the natives. He would then open the gate for me to descend in my Avatar form. Unfortunately, the repulsion for my True Body would be too powerful if the Universe Will is not suppressed."
I planned to use one of my descendants who would prove to be suitable for such a task.
While most, if not all, of my descendants were outstanding in terms of achievements, potential, or power, not all of them were suitable for such a mission.
"Then, if nobody has anything else to say, I will be ending this meeting."
With this being said, I returned back to the Baator within the Kadath Universe.
