"Who are you?" edward asked to unknown guy who shocked everyone with a sack.
"I am not a venerable or something, i got too many sacks of venerable somewhere by someone and he made me omnipotent as well." Unknown guy replied.
As he said this he took the sack and moved on, explored the market with the sack.
At the next moment, edward woke the female shopkeeper up: "Hey, wake up."
The shopkeeper slowly opened her eyes as he said: "Where is that guy with sack?"
"He left, don't regret maybe it was just a prank otherwise why would he leave instead of waking you up if he really wanted to make the deal." Edward replied.
Edward continued as he left to pursue that unknown guy with holding sophie's hands: "Make sure no one steals the venerable stone i gave you, bye."
"Yes sir." Shopkeeper shouted as he went too far with his speed but edward heard it.
Edward chose his word carefully, he was omniscient knew what kind of response exactly he will get, thus, managed to console the lady.
He consoled her precisely because if he would not, i lady would have been traumatized, she would have shout in the shop, she would been crying loudly because no one in the world ever had one thousand sprit stones.
He went further to pursue the unknown guy and saw him taking cut, moving forward towards the shortcut in the steet.
Edward ran towards him said loudly: "HEY, STOP!"
But as he reached to the street and looked there, inside the street there was dead end, thus, was unable to find the unknown guy.
He was even unable to saw his face, his face was covered with mask.
Edward wanted to knew who in the world is he, was he dante or not.
Sophie asked as they reached the dead end: "Let's go to the main palace now to participate."
Edward nodded and walked towards the palace slowly.
He asked the system as he was walking: "System, who was that guy?"
[He was not dante but you will cross ways with him too soon, if i would tell you know it will be of no use]
"okay" edward replied.
But soon his interest from the guy earlier waned, omniscients are just like this. controling their own emotions are in their hands hands. they can feel extremely happy, sad, anger on their own and they can feel nothing when they don't want to.
After walking slowly he saw the gate of the holy palace, he was almost there as the guard asked: "What are you here for?"
"To participate in the completion" sophie spoke
"Sorry, 100 peoples are already registered. you are too late." The guard spoke.
Edward knew this by the time they arrived, the registration was already closed but this is something he would be worried about, omniscient people had around unlimited ways to influence people minds as they does not lack any information thus he can easily manipulate the guard, he can choose any sentence to control him.
Edward spoke something to the guard slowly in his ears.
The guard suddenly shouted towards edward with shock: "Sorry, you can go now sir, first tell me your name?"
Sophie was shocked as she showed shocked expression.
Edward replied: "My name is drake, and this girl's name is sophia. we are both participating."
"Okay, you may go now." Guard replied.
Edward and sophie used the fake name to not get caught by venerable. this was a venerable's territory.
The soldier from earlier was an immortal and strong, as the hollow immortal cultivational tool was common among immortals, the soldier had one too. he was stronger than edward because he has been cultivating for 30 years yet he got influenced by edward.
Soon, as the huge gate opened, in front of the gate Edward and Sophie were like ants in terms of size while in strength, Edward can break the gate, not even Sophie is exception due to the hollow immortal cultivational tool.
Sophie asked while walking: "What did you said to the soldier in whisper?"
Edward replied: "I can control minds like that, I knew from the start time to participate is over. but i am omniscient afterall."
As sophie the palace, she was impressed, there was main throne of venerable, shone brightly with gold. both of them were walking, their destination was the 100th floor.
The guard from earlier ran fast with his full speed and used the elevator, reached the top of the building, 100th level.
Soon, sophie and edward reached the 100th level slowly.
On the 100th floor a guy who was scared from inside after knowing there will be 99 death, 1 winner. wanted to ran away from this place but he could not.
soon soldier noticed him and asked if he wanted to run away: "Do you wanted to go home?"
The guy replied: "Yes"
Soldier asked: "What's your name?"
The guy said: "Eryx."
Soon the removed the name from the list through pan in his hands, he elevated to 100th level to find the list and find a guy who wanted to escape to replace him with edward.
He wrote edward same as he said: "Come with me"
He came with him and lifted to the level 1 and got escaped happily.
The guard thought with smile: "I just have to find one more guy"
He thought this because he had to write sophie's name next.
Edward and sophie moved in the next room, they saw 100 players all around at the battlefield, there was just 10 minutes left for the battle to begin.
The battlefield was created for this competition in such a way no one can break them except the venerables and high level immortals.
Hawkins used the venerable cultivational tool named solid on the battlefield, this cultivational tool is a small tool that can produce unlimited water that can solid anything for a day.
Only venerables and high level immortals can break this cultivational tool as the tool was venerable level.
In this world, high level immortals are called — pseudo venerables.
Edward, due to his unlimited wisdom, reached at the right time, he had not to wait, the battle was just about to begin.
As edward entered the battlefield there was hawkins and other players looking at him.
Hawkins asked towards edward: "What's your name?"
"My name is my name is drake." Edward introduced.
Hawkins smiled, laughed inwardly, he knew he is edward and the girl with him is sophie because of their clothes, but he decided to play dumb.
He knew this because edward wanted him to know, edward knew he will play dumb.
The referee shouted as he pressed the button and rang the bell: "The battle begins now."
[Author Note: The battle began, will venerable summon dante? who is the unknown guy from the shop? Guess both]
