I knew that for Hescos, the issue of cultivation was like a taboo. After all, their suits were immune to most attacks and damage except from those who had their cultivation bases opened.


    "If that takes lots of time, why do I see people get in, stand over there, and thene out after so little time?" Matte asked in doubt as he pointed at a group just getting out from the dome shaped encirclement of the flying fortress, "like this group. They just came in the moment we appeared here and they just got out in less than an hour!"


    "That''s normal, after all my chariot has a time eleration ability," I calmly said, and my wordsnded to leave everyone petrified in their shock.


    I was sure that if a needle fell to the ground at this moment, I''d be able to hear its nging sound clearly in my ears.


    "Ah I forgot to tell you about this, but the worlds here are unique. They all have a time eleration effect, in different degrees of course…"


    I started to speak about my unique time ability, and the more I spoke the more shocked and silenced they became.


    "Are you saying that if we stayed here for an entire two month''s time, only one day would pass in the outer world?!!!" Stephen couldn''t help but show a rare emotion of shock over his face.


    And he wasn''t the only one showing such a reaction, everyone else did. "Hahahaha! How did you think I managed to gather up such formidable forces to contend with you?" Iughed and let their shock get deeper.


    I wasn''t bluffing or exaggerating. I was just speaking the truth.


    "Damn!" Matte cursed out loud, "this is crazy!!"


    I was satisfied by their reactions. And yet I didn''t hurry to say anything. "Let''s go, there are other ces here to visit."


    I took them around the surfaceyer of this world. After seeing many training grounds, we arrived at the entrance to the lower world.


    And when we reached there, they looked around and felt how unique this ce was.


    "This world… It''s filled with weird energy…" Stephen was the first to speak, "what happened here?"


    "This is a long story…" I didn''t hide anything from them. In fact I knew if I wanted to rope in these talents, then a long talk about what I did before was needed.


    And I got nothing to fear about them knowing everything like that. First they were bound to me and their fate was in my hands. And second this world was inessible by anyone without my sole permission.


    I nned to let them live here without letting them go to Earth world for now. They wanted a life of peace and rest, and I needed them to take their time before deciding what to do next.


    "A force that wants to take over the universe?" Stephen muttered to himself before adding, "are they rted to any race here?"


    "No, they are the ones who started the ancient war between us and that other universe," I paused, "and from what I learnt, they wanted to see the entire world burn into the fire of chaos."<novelnext></novelnext>


    My words left a heavy silence behind. I didn''t know if such information was known to those deciding matters at the big races including Hescos or not. But I had the feeling such a thing wasn''t a mystery to those holding high power.


    Aside from these mighty and formidable people, people like these paragon candidates wouldn''t get to know anything like that.


    So their reaction was expected. And I wanted to deliver such a message for them; I wasn''t fighting for my own benefits, but also fighting for the sake and safety for everyone in the entire universe.


    That mysterious faction that I got to know one part of, the demons, wanted to see everyone die. In my eyes, they were the top enemy of everyone in our universe, and in other universes as well.


    Fighting such a faction was indeed a crazy act. And yet I just fought and won them here. As Stephen''s face was dark enough to rival the pitch ckness of a moonless night, Matte noticed something while my chariot was on the move.


    "Who are they? And what are they doing?" he pointed towards a direction, and it was the same direction I was heading towards.


    "Oh, that''s my research department, the ones who created the awesome weapons I used in my recent wars…" I started to exin how I thought about this and how my department was doing right now.


    As I spoke, the earlier heavy presence from that mysterious faction vanished slowly. Everyone started to get immersed in watching my research department folks work and test their various weapons and innovations.


    I ced great importance on this department to attract many of these paragons. But to my disappointment, not a single one asked to join the department on the spot like I thought.


    "I have to be patient," I kept telling myself that. If I grew impatient and rushed recruiting them, this might backfire at me.


    So I remained silent and kept taking them around the department. Then I went to other ces and showed them more of the training grounds.


    "I have to admit, you have lots of forces and training facilities than anyone from a famous race would have," one of the paragons sighed, and everyone nodded in agreement.


    I showed them lots of training grounds that I lost count for. But next in the tour was the zone of my artefacts I got from the Toranks sovereigns.


    When they spotted these, they showed a weird expression over their faces.


    "You even have such arge number of outer battlefield artefacts?!!!" Matte shouted in shock as he recognised the artefacts used on many continents around.


    We were flying at high altitude, enough to see many parts of the surrounding continents.


    "And you are using them in such a ce, that''s an extravagant attitude of yours," Stephen shook his head in obvious regret, "people will fight to death to get their hands on a single artefact and may even consider it a family heritage. And here you are, using them like they were nothing!"
