Their journey to the Vronti castle is actually quite uneventful and there is actually a shortcut from the lake which made their journey faster.

Chatur changed his appearance when they are nearby and he did so after changing into a human form. He changed into a human with a face that could easily get lost in a crowd. He even made Sam and Arman change clothes and created disguises.

But when they entered the Vronti castle, they didn’t have to wait for anyone or inform an attendant. They directly strolled into a room with no one stopping them.

As for the reason, the Vronti castle doesn’t welcome the people from Nagin castle. They are extremely aversive to them and the main reason stemmed from the rivalry of the Nagas.

The Vronti Planet is also controlled by both Yaksha and Nagas. There are few humans. But the Nagas of this planet don’t like the Nagas of the Nagin planet because of their bloodline variation.

Now it is like the racism of the modern earth. Racism based on skin tone, but where the skin is replaced by scales.

The planet is also a bit different as they have extreme lightning energy and metal energy all over the place. There are many mines to the point there is no normal vegetation. Even the trees and forests here are of metal and they look great for the view, not so for the food and such.

The conflict between the two unbalanced natural elements, the metal and lightning clash regularly making it hard for them to live there.

But that also gave them some advantages that are not easily obtained in any other place. For starters, the gravity of this place is higher and this made these people stronger than normal. They have a greater tendency to activate warrior bodies and there are many people with warrior constitutions.

And due to the active metal essence and the lightning essence all over, it is a great place for cultivating both elements and most of them awaken as Warrior mages of either one of those elements or even both of those elements.

Even though they don’t have as many resources as the rest of the planets when considering other elements, they have too many in their own elements that made them extremely powerful.

As for the reason the Nagas of the Vronti planet do not like the Nagas of the Nagin planet, it is very simple.

It was said that the Nagas of Vronti planet are once part of the Nagin empire, but were chased away from that planet and thrown into the Vronti Planet as prisoners.

It was done so because ancestors of both races ascended to greater heights and fought for superiority. Their side lost but didn’t seem to honor a bet, so this ancestor got pissed and tore open a space tunnel and threw them all into that planet.

Even though it is a little more than a myth in the Nagin, the Vronti believe this as an exaggerated fact.

As for Yaksha, they have nothing against others.

Currently, they are meeting a Yaksha of the Vronti.

He didn’t wear anything on his upper half as he showed off his physique with all the blue electric tattoos along with blue metallic tattoos.

He was blessed with both of them and the tattoos are extremely dense for a nascent.

"Hey, Chatur. It has been a long time since we met."

He greeted chatur casually and gestured all three of them to take a seat.

"I have been busy. I brought someone to meet you. He wants to talk a business deal."

Chatur replied and went on to introduce Sam and Arman. Apparently, the disguise is only for the others to ignore them. This guy already knows Chatur’s real identity and they seemed to be pretty close. Sam could see how casual this guy is. His name is praneeth and he is already talking to them as if they are friends for the past seven lives.

"So, what kind of business do you want to discuss? I am open to talk about any business except for a few."

"I want to buy something special from your planet. But I don’t know if you have authority to sell it."

"Don’t worry about that. There are not many things I couldn’t sell. You can name what you want. I can sell metals, elemental stones, special herbs, fruits, even fruit trees. Apart from that I even have a business of some special beasts and even exotic water creatures of the Vronti."

"They all sounds great, but first I want to buy a mushroom."

Sam said with a smile.

Praneeth’s smile stiffened a bit and then his grin became bigger.

"If you are saying what I think you are saying, maybe you came to the right person. Only I have authority to give access to that thing."

"If you think I am talking about Thousand lightning mushroom, then yes, you might be the right person."

"But you do know that it is extremely valuable right? It cannot be bought with money easily."

"Of course, I am not just paying with money. What do you want?"

"The thousand lightning mushroom is difficult to obtain. But only for others, for me it is easy and in fact, I already have one. It is to improve my cultivation and foundation. Even the transcendent stage cultivators can take it. As for me, if I take it in small parts and slowly digest it, I can easily become a pre-transcendent stage cultivator and even reach the second stage directly. So, it is hard to put a price tag on it.

But there is a way for you to exchange it with something of equivalent value."

"So, what would that be?"

"I heard you are quite fast, I want you to obtain a fruit for me, but that fruit is not of the same value as the mushroom. It is quite cheaper. So, I want three of them plus, I want your help in capturing a beast. I want you to help me tame it. If you can do that, I will give you the mushroom.

If you can obtain anything from the expedition, you can keep it."

Sam looked at him and thought for a moment before saying.

"Any other alternatives?"

"I can’t say I don’t have any. But only if there no hope at all."

"Then I would agree. When do we leave?"

"In two days, we will meet at the Origin castle at dawn."

Sam nodded and left along with Arman and Chatur.

They didn’t go back to the lake immediately. Due to the appearance of Elite ten in the dimension, the Union sect once again started the war.

But this time, they are not as aggressive and even their arrangements are quite meticulous and that is due to one of the elite ten’s arrangements. He is called the Battle Erudite. Even though, Sam felt that the title is not so deserving it is not too far off.

He is good at planning battle formations and such.

He has astute planning and a delicate understanding of the situation and he is not even attacking the Nagin castle directly.

He is attacking it bit by bit.

The Nagin castle has a very large disadvantage in terms of its bases and resource points. They are spread too thin and too wide. They couldn’t send the reinforcements immediately.

Currently, they are attacking a castle of Nagin planet from a different direction and attacked another resource point a bit far away from that castle.

There is another base of Nagin castle in the middle, they are now stuck between two choices, but when they send reinforcement to either one of them, that very base would be vulnerable and the Union sect has stationed some troops nearby.

So, currently, the union sect battling on two fronts and waiting out on one.

On top of that six of the elite ten are placed in pairs at these three places. They are waiting for Sam or other elites that appeared that could tilt the scales of the battle, they are not going to directly participate in the battle.

But what they don’t know is neither Sam’s nor the elites that came has the war as their first priority. They all have their own tasks to complete.

After observing the situation for a bit, Sam decided to meddle in one of the battle-fields.

If he fought with these elites, he is pretty sure that they would use those shadow tokens. But Sam has a chance now as Arman is with him. He could figure out a way to hold off at least one of them if they wanted to escape by using their teamwork.

So, after scouting a bit, they finally found the place where the wind fiend is and decided to make their move there.

He already has some personal business with that guy as he escaped after ambushing. So, Sam figured that it is also a chance for him to repay the favor.

He could also understand the mindset of these guys as he didn’t expect them to be this passive after Night Charm’s disappearance.
