Dylan was satisfied with the treatment he received. The Main Branch seems to be a lot more generous than the one in Congyun City.
He knew that Earth Grade was vastly superior to the Human Grade Divine Sense technique both in efficiency and power.
Human grade takes 10 years before a Saint with average talent could condense Divine Seed. Can be shortened to 4 years if the Saint was a heaven genius level of talent.
"Thanks, I'm satisfied with the preferential treatment," Dylan said jokingly.
Ryuji nodded with a smile. Yet, the man in black cast a frown at Dylan.
'Does this guy have problems with me?' Dylan thought secretly as he noticed the behavior of the guy in a black trench coat. 'Weird, I don't even know him.'
'Probe!'

[Danger Level]:
-[Innate Talents]-
Gifted Mechanic (Purple), Burly Physique (Green), Keen Intellect (Green), Malevolent (White)
Dylan began to read the description of the innate talents with interest.
The purple innate talent gifted mechanic gives a person talent in a specialized area. Well, a mechanic. Not just on one aspect of the mechanic, but comprehensive. As long as one dedicated their time to this profession, they were bound to reach the top.
Dylan finally understood why this person named Kim Jung had an AK-47. As a mechanic, he could create his weapons which wasn't strange.
'It's worth befriending such a person. I don't have a sub-body with skills in this area...' Dylan secretly thought. 'But he seems to have something against me? Still... It's impressive that he reached the Saint Realm without a talent that helps with strength.'
'Status!'

...
'Well, my status is still a lot more impressive.'
Currently, Jin is his highest-level sub-body. Level 300, a Beyonder.
Dylan suddenly realized something. 'Huh? I miscalculated something... Ancestor isn't level 500! But 400!'
'Then, the Great World should be level 900 not 1000. If this is the case, what's the name of the realm of level 1,000?'
Dylan began to summarize the realm in his head as he thoroughly miscalculated.
Mortal Realm: From high to low: Great World, Fairy, Asura, Indra, Supreme, Ancestor, Beyonder, Saint, Noble, and lastly, Awakened. A total of nine major realms, not fucking ten!
1-99: Awakened
100-199: Noble
200-299: Saint
300-399: Beyonder
400-499: Ancestor
500-599: Supreme
600-699: Indra
700-799: Asura
800-899: Fairy
900-999: Great World
At this time, he realized he didn't know what realm was level 1000. He didn't think too much before because he thought it was the Great World Realm. But now...
'There is no record of level 1000 even in those ancient texts and history books. Maybe it's the realm of those beings in the Heavenly Realm?
But it was said that the first realm on the Heavenly Realm was Heavenly Warrior. If he had to make a guess, that corresponds to level 1001-1100. So, what is 901-1000?
Just like that, Dylan directly made his way to the Technique Pavilion.
The technique pavilion was actually a white tower with eight floors. Dylan approached the entrance. When he got near, the scent of blooming flowers showered his nose. The sound of guitar strings reached his ears
In front of the tower, there was a white-haired man who seemed to be in his 50s or 60s. Dylan didn't know how to precisely gauge the age. The one in front of him looked like his 53-year-old uncle. Their facial features had 75% similarity with the difference that the guy in front of him had silver pupils which made him look a lot older.
'Is this the elder that Pavilion Master warned me to not mess with? I wonder why?'
The elder was currently reading a book with a leisurely look. He shot a glance at Dylan then his expression turned deep. "Hmmmm... Bone age 30 years old? Also a Saint?" Then a hint of wisdom appeared in his eyes. "You're the new Vice Pavilion Master, am I right!"
Dylan looked at the pupils of the elder astounded. The silver pupils had three stars that constantly rotated within. 'T-this... Isn't this Supreme Pupil that only one could awaken when one reaches the Supreme Realm?'
This elder in front of him must be a Supreme Expert even without the use of the panel!
How did he know? In the game, to become A Supreme in Version 8, he had condensed his own Supreme Pupils derived from Draconic Minotaur Beyonder Tattoo and successfully Awakened the Supreme Pupil 'Minotaur Transfiguration Eye.'
Dylan couldn't help but feel nostalgia at one of the significant milestones that he had reached in the game. Life is so pure at that time. He only eats three meals and works out at their humble house, sleeps, and plays VR games through the raffle his mother had won him.
However, Dylan couldn't identify what type of supreme pupils the old man in front of him possessed.
'It seems I discovered a big secret that could shake the world. Maybe there's not only 12 supreme but 13 or even more!'
In the world, there are 12 known Supremes. The keyword is "Known". After all, who knows if other Supremes prefer to hide their identity, live in recluse, experience mortal life seeking for breakthrough. It's not strange that there are unknown Supremes that prefer to be lowkey, hiding from the spotlight.
Now, Dylan could say that the elder in front of him belongs to the low-key category of Supremes. Maybe in this world, only Ryujii knows the true identity of the elder guarding the Technique Pavilion.
The Pavilion Master turned out to be not the strongest in the Alliance but the unassuming elder in front of him!
