Jiro was a dealer of collectibles and would have found someone else to sell his goods off to even if Wilbur had not gone looking for him. According to the data, Jiro had only bought the fourth dragon cauldron from someone else just half a month ago. He was just trying to hike up the price. Of course, Jiro would be happy that someone had come looking for him, and he said yes right away. "Alright, Mister Penn. Please come to my house if you'd like to buy some collectibles. Also, please send me the images of the collectibles you'd like first." "Sure." "Oh, please send me your address too." "Sure." Jiro sent his address to Wilbur within two minutes after hanging up, who rushed to his house at top speed. Jiro had managed to live in a bungalow by making money dealing with collectibles. Wilbur rang the doorbell, and the butler answered not long after. The butler was an old man who smiled at Wilbur. "You must be Mister Wilbur Penn, here to purchase some antiques?" "That's right
Jiro's gaze flashed, and he looked at Wilbur. Jiro had raised the price on purpose thinking that Wilbur would haggle for sure, and the final price would definitely be much lower than a million dollars. The truth was that Jiro had a bottom price in mind. The cauldron was finely crafted, but it was too small. Even four hundred dollars would be a pretty good price to sell it off it. Wilbur accepting the million-dollar price tag told Jiro that Wilbur definitely had a special interest in the cauldron. Maybe the cauldron had a special value of sorts. Regardless of what Wilbur saw in the cauldron, Jiro was a greedy man and his gaze flashed greedily. Naturally, he was not going to sell the cauldron off so easily now that he saw how interested Wilbur was. Jiro got to his feet, pouring Wilbur a cup of tea while pushing the box back to himself. "Mister Penn, I think we could negotiate the price." "What?" Wilbur looked at Jiro, confused. "Didn't we just finish negotiating? You offered
A collectible hunter was a special name for a person dealing in the business of buying and selling collectibles. The nickname existed because this kind of person was able to see different prices and meanings for each collectible based on the customer. Collectibles were not cheap, and their dealers were usually pretty well off. Jiro was undoubtedly a rich man, and some of his customers did not care much about money. However, they definitely cared about how they looked to others. The collectible hunter would play the game of finding out the best price the customer could offer. This would show how much the customer cared about the collectible, and the seller would be able to make a good amount of money as well. There were too many purveyors of personal secrets in the world, and the collectible hunter fell right into this category. However, these people could only find out the secrets of regular people, as cultivators came with auras of their own. Besides, Jiro was going up against W
A moment later, the entire room was filled with dragon aura. It forged into the shape of a dragon with Wilbur as the center, and he chuckled smugly. The next second, the Wilbur levitating mid-air faded and disappeared as the dragon aura faded away. Wilbur was currently sitting cross-legged on the bed, and he had actually cloned himself using a cloning spell just now. Ever since getting the formula for the cloning spell from the old dragon, Wilbur had leveled up to holding the spell for half a minute. That was more than enough to defeat an opponent as an elite. Now Wilbur could use a clone to control the dragon aura while his actual person managed the spiritual energy of the Earth and Thunder-type power to attack the opponent. That would be an immensely powerful attack for sure. The next morning, Wilbur packed up his bags and took a plane to Migorn. According to the information Layla had provided, the second dragon cauldron now belonged to a wealthy collector, Billy Erwin. Bil
Kaylee Automotives was pretty much what gave Billy his wealth and status. Losing it would mean losing everything he had. Wilbur was certain that Billy would hate to have that happen to him. Sure enough, Wilbur's phone rang with a call from Billy within three minutes. "Sir? I think we could negotiate what you mentioned just now." Half an hour later, Wilbur met up with Billy in the private room of a fancy Western restaurant. Billy hurried to shake Wilbur's hand at the sight of him. Billy was extremely fat, and the sight of his enormous figure wrapped up in a suit was certainly amusing. Billy looked like there was a lot on his mind. After ordering two steaks, he said, "Mister Penn, I've brought you what you want." He set a wooden box down on the table. "I can give the cauldron to you for free, but I've got a small request. I hope you can delete all the information you have, Mister Penn, and promise not to mention anything about Kaylee Automotives forever." "No, thank you."
Getting the second dragon cauldron from Billy was rather easy, but getting the fifth dragon cauldron was going to take a bit more time. Wilbur was planning to get the fifth dragon cauldron back from the National Museum of Migorn legally. After bidding farewell to Billy, Wilbur hailed a cab to the National Museum of Migorn. He bought himself a ticket and quickly located the cauldron in a dimly lit corner of the museum. Despite the fact that the fifth dragon cauldron was definitely lacking in comparison to the other artifacts in the museum, the dragons carved onto it were still as realistic-looking as ever. Just then, a beautiful museum guide named Ellen came over. "Good day, sir. What you're looking at is a bronze cauldron that originated from Dasha. It found its way to Migorn in the previous century and has now been kept in the National Museum of Migorn." Wilbur felt a strange sense of familiarity towards the cauldron, seeing as both he and the cauldron were from Dasha and in
Right after Wilbur had ended the call, his phone rang with another call from Layla. "Yo, sir." "Is anything the matter, Layla?" "Sir, we've just received news that the assassin group called the Black Panthers reappeared after disappearing from the cultivator's circle for a good while. They killed Jiro last night, and if I'm not wrong, they're now on their way to Migorn." "I think they're out to get you, sir." "I know. It's alright, I'll handle it." The Black Panthers were making a move? Wilbur found the whole thing rather peculiar upon hanging up. The Black Panthers had always been under a powerful secret elite, working for him and carrying out his demands. That elite had not given out any orders for a long time, and eventually, the Black Panthers were barely talked about at all. No one could believe that they had made a reappearance, ten years later— and this time, they were after him. Wilbur gave it some thought and realized that neither he nor Jiro had any reason t
Ellen's father set the bag of food down on the table, digging around in it for a while before saying, "F*ck! Where's the sandwich I like? Why didn't you get it for me? Do you think I'm worthless, too?" Her father glowered at her coldly, and Ellen shook her head as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Sorry, Dad. Love Grocer doesn't have sandwiches anymore." "Are you saying they didn't have the discounted sandwiches today?" "No, not just today. Love Grocer isn't going to put the sandwiches on discount anymore. I'm afraid you won't be able to have them now, Dad." Ellen lowered her head, feeling a shred of glee creep into her chest. This was the closest she could get to rebelling against her father. Ellen had drained all her time and energy to support this family, but her father had never been grateful. "What the f*ck did you just say? That motherf*cking Love Grocer took my favorite food out of the discount list? This is all your f*cking fault! Come here!" Ellen's father grabbed her
Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked
It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo
Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu
Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh
The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all
Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then
Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F
"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
