I Don't Need To Log Out

Zephyrion let out a low growl. "You want them to take the bait and infiltrate the operation directly."

"Exactly." Arlon's gaze was steady. "Once they do, we'll know who's involved. We'll be able to track their movements and identify their connections. If they attempt to switch identities mid-operation, that will expose their methods even more."

Zephyrion sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. "You realize that if they believe the reports, they'll make their move immediately. We might not have much time to react."

"I'm counting on that," Arlon said.

Zephyrion studied him. "And what if the Mimes don't fall for it?"@@novelbin@@

"They will," Arlon said confidently. "They've been acting more aggressively, changing their tactics. If we give them something they believe is critical, they won't hesitate."

Zephyrion exhaled sharply. "And Syme?"

Arlon leaned back slightly, considering his words. "I'll be out on the field training next week. The other saviors and I will be handling two Demons. One of them is Syme.

So, don't worry about it and handle this side. I will also bring Nyx with me this time. She needs to level up."

Zephyrion's brows furrowed. "Two Demons at once? Are you certain you can handle that?"

Arlon smirked. "Well, we're definitely getting rid of two next week. That much I'm sure of. I'll also make it out alive." He paused before adding, "I can't promise the same for the other saviors."

Zephyrion narrowed his eyes. "You don't sound concerned about that."

Arlon let out a slow breath. "Because concern won't change anything. I know I can take Syme and the other Demon. The problem is whether the others are ready for a battle of this scale."

The Beastman ruler studied him for a long moment. "And?"

Arlon shrugged. "They aren't."

Zephyrion's tail flicked behind him, but he remained silent, waiting for Arlon to continue.

"But we don't have the luxury of waiting forever," Arlon admitted. "If they aren't ready, they'll die. And if they die…" His gaze darkened slightly.

Arlon was sure that he could handle Syme and the other Demon. But he didn't think the other players were ready for that big of a war.

However, he couldn't wait forever for them to get ready. In the worst-case scenario, they would die on Trion and wouldn't log in ever again.

Of course, this was the worst-case scenario. If possible, he would just teach them how to handle the Demons.

Syme and the other Demon would be perfect since the other Demon was the weakest Demon after Draco.

"And you're bringing Nyx," Zephyrion said, his gaze still steady.

Arlon nodded. "She needs to level up. She won't be in any real danger, but she has to grow stronger. This is the best opportunity for that."

Zephyrion exhaled but didn't argue. "I see. Then we'll prepare for this on our end by Monday. In the meantime, you received a message from Vulwin in Morealis. It's about the Royals' equipment, I assume."

He reached into a drawer and pulled out a sealed letter, sliding it across the table to Arlon.

Since Zephyrion knew that Arlon would give one of the Royals equipment to Vulwin for inspecting purposes, he guessed what the letter could include.

Arlon took it without opening it immediately. "He doesn't seem like the type to send casual messages. He's probably pushing for an update."

Zephyrion's lips curled slightly. "Exactly. Since you already told me you'd be giving one of the Royals' equipment to Vulwin for inspection, I had a feeling this letter was just his way of reminding you."

He was right on point. The message was just to remind Arlon about his promise.

Well, it said "remind", but it was more like pressure on him.

Still, Arlon was also restless since he couldn't complete that "quest" yet.

Zephyrion watched him. "What will you do?"

Arlon tapped his fingers against the letter. "I'll send a reply saying I'll bring the equipment in two weeks. That should keep him satisfied for now."

Zephyrion huffed. "Sly guy, but he doesn't mean harm."

Arlon nodded. "Yeah, I know."

This wasn't a secret. Even though Trion's cities and towns didn't have a formal executive system, powerful figures naturally rose to the top.

In Istarra, it was Charon.

In Oceina, it was Edrich.

And in Morealis, it was Vulwin.

These weren't just influential figures. They were people who held power, people who could move forces, shift balances, and change outcomes.

Naturally, Zephyrion knew them all.

They even worked together with him most of the time, especially now that there was war.

So, Zephyrion's advice wasn't empty and Arlon took it to heart.

Lastly, Arlon informed Zephyrion about the "Aensite" mineral he learned from the anti-saviors.

If Zephyrion could find it, the fight would change forever.

Especially since Arlon knew that there wasn't such a mineral in his past life, meaning anti-saviors couldn't achieve their goal.

With that, they finished their talk.

Arlon spent the rest of his time studying spatial magic.

It was a complicated field, but one he was determined to master. And by the end of his session, he had succeeded.

He had created a pocket dimension—one big enough to finally call an inventory.

With a single thought, he transferred all of his belongings into his own personal space.

The weight vanished from his pockets, his gear disappeared from sight, but he could still feel its presence, waiting to be summoned at will.

This was a huge step.

Up until now, he had relied on the system's built-in storage function, but that wouldn't last forever.

He needed to rely less on the system.

This also meant that he was one step closer to the real teleportation. Once he had achieved that, he could completely get rid of the system.

There was a reason Arlon wanted to get rid of it. Normally, the system wasn't a bad thing.

But Arlon knew that strong people weren't bound by it.

Kalmer had informed him that there were those who could, for example, kill people even if they were in a Zeno capsule.

This wasn't something mystical. Everything depended on one's existence level.

EVR was known to be the highest existence in the whole universe, meaning that no one could be stronger than it.

The issue was that EVR wasn't a person.

So, the second strongest was actually the strongest. Also, even though the second strongest couldn't win against EVR's actions, they could still interfere to some degree.

And since EVR was a part of nature and not a person with interests or desires, it wouldn't resist.

Of course, one didn't need to be the strongest existence to be able to do it. After a certain level of existence, some limits would be meaningless.

So, even though Arlon didn't know this much, he still knew enough that he couldn't depend on the system's protection forever.

He thought about his goals now. His first goal was dealing with Syme and the other Demon. And then, he would just need to become level 150.

Only after that, he could move toward Samera Mash and receive his third title together with the other players.

Also, he needed to go there to see Agema.

His goals were set and he was ready to start the field training.
