Arthur was about to return to Ascent when he received a communication request from Julia. She told him that Lucien Yalen, formerly known as Sier, asked that Arthur visit him in the palace.

After such a long time, Arthur felt a little nostalgic while visiting the capital. A lot had changed since the last time he was there, fighting against empyreans and killing kings. The atmosphere in the capital was dark and gloomy after the repeated fights against the demi-humans.

Arthur made his way through the city instead of teleporting directly into the palace. Whoever saw him recognized his face, and most chose to bow in respect. It didn\'t matter if some people had personal vendettas against him because everyone recognized his effect on the world.

His long hair flew behind him, almost touching the ground. His robes were loosely fitted and revealed the toned muscles beneath them. The aura surrounding him was one of absolute serenity, and it affected every place he visited.

Arthur reached the gates of the palace, and the guards opened them without hesitation. Everyone bowed as he walked inside, heading straight toward the inner palace. No one even dared to stop him or ask who he was.

This was the most famous, and infamous, man in the world. Many loved and worshiped him, while others hated him. There were conflicting opinions about him, but no one could deny knowing him.

Champion of the Apprentices Runes Cup.

Savior of Kera.

Slayer of kings.

Defeater of Empyreans.

Merger of Worlds.

Ruler of Runera.

And the list went on, each achievement more awe-inspiring than the last. The rankings that humans used seemed to underestimate him. Even at the moment, no one saw his Astral Being. This proved that he did all of that… while still being a Demi-Ranker.

"Please let me guide you inside, Guild Master Arthur Netherborne," Idris received him at the door, wearing a black suit befitting a butler. Arthur smiled and nodded, letting this old acquaintance lead the way. "Thank you for visiting us on such short notice."

"That\'s what it means to be an ally," Arthur said with a smile. "Are you the head butler inside the palace now?"

"Thanks to His Majesty, I am."

"We have come a long way from a group of thieves to leaders of nations," Arthur said with a smile. "How is Sier?"

"King Lucien is rather busy these days. You would have to excuse him for not reaching out regarding the matter in Kera. Our intel on the situation arrived too late."

"King Lucien, huh?" Arthur said with a smile. "Which name do you prefer, the new one or the old one?"

Idris was silent. Arthur could tell that he didn\'t wish to answer, but he recognized that Arthur was too powerful to offend. "The old one."

"I see," Arthur said with a smile. "Let\'s go see Sier then."

Idris nodded and led the way. Instead of a courtroom, he led him toward a study. Idris knocked on the door and opened it for Arthur, who walked in to see Sier drowning in paperwork. He jumped from his seat as soon as he saw Arthur.

"Arthur! You made it!" Sier said with surprise and happiness as he rushed out to receive him. The two hugged each other lightly and studied each other. "You look like a hermit now."

"And you look miserable," Arthur said with a smile. "It\'s good to see you, Sier. How can I help?"

"Come inside. No need to rush things."

"You literally called Julia and told her it\'s an emergency," Arthur said with a smile, but he sat down anyway. "Is there something wrong?"

Sier looked troubled and embarrassed that Arthur jumped straight into the issue instead of exchanging pleasantries. Nonetheless, he was happy to share his worries and rushed to take a few documents out.

"These are reports from my scouts," Sier said while rubbing his face. Arthur took the reports and placed them beside him while looking at Sier with a frown. "What?"

"Why would you need scouts?" Arthur asked with confusion. "You can foresee anything, right? You obtained the powers of the Seer Guardian."

"I have been exhausting myself to make the peace treaty go through," Sier answered with a smile. "Read the reports and you\'ll know what I mean."

"Do you blame me for merging the two worlds?" Arthur asked before he read the reports. His golden eyes stared into the violet in Sier\'s eyes, and the latter shook his head with a smile.

"The merge was inevitable. I foresaw it in a hundred different ways," Sier said as he cupped his hands. "It would have been a disaster if not for you. You freed this world of fear using the Level-Up Legacy."

Arthur was silent and then turned his attention toward the reports. There were a dozen reports, all ending with the death of the scout after facing some unknown fate. Most of them came from unexplored lands that had appeared after the merge.

"The merge was a disaster, but it has yet to end," Sier said with a frown. "We are just catching up to the effects of the merge on our world. The new mana that arrived in this world is mutating the monsters more than we believed."

"What does that mean?"

"Earth and Alka grew as two separate worlds with their own ecosystems and mana," Sier explained while covering his mouth with his hands. "The merge has now caused a clash of mana and ecosystems. Monsters are evolving and becoming intelligent. There are creatures living on our borders that we cannot fathom."

Arthur read through the reports while listening to his friend. Each scout found some clues of monster evolution, only to die just days afterward while searching for these monsters. The reports came from different places, and some of them only reported that a scout left and never came back.
