Chapter 1482 Eyewitness
"I can"t know any of these things for sure either, but I do have a plausible hypothesis…"
Aritzia paced, her pretty brows furrowed slightly. "The odd energy fluctuations coming from the Dark Ocean contain higher than usual bursts of Gama, Spatial, and Time qi. This could be the result of anything from building a spatial tunnel akin to the Void Clans Void Tunnels, to the release of powerful techniques capable of shattering s.p.a.ce…
"However, I"m of the belief that it"s something far more serious than this." Aritzia suddenly looked up toward her elder brother. "Are you aware of how the Elves so suddenly rose to power?"
Primus nodded. "Records show that they had the ability to seal their territory from easy entry. This gave them the ability to attack at will, while also easily protecting their own territory. This treasure is nameless and often goes by the Jafari Clan Treasure since they"re its creator…
"You mean to say that the Elves are currently sealing off the Dark Ocean for themselves?!"
"It"s highly likely. But, once more, I can"t be certain. You have to remember that the most recent Power to use the Jafari Clan Treasure wasn"t the Elves, but the Demon Sage and his branched off Pakal Clan. It"s a stretch on my part to conclude with absolute certainty that this is what is going on… I have no real proof."
"Then what do you plan to do?"
"Like I said, the Water Mist Sect will be very useful idiots… There are also members of our Sapientia Clan in practically every quadrant but the top 3. They will make their use known as well.
"If my plan works out, then we"ll not only gain a good portion of the Dark Ocean"s resources for ourselves, but we"ll also have the Elves in the palm of our hands…"
Primus chuckled. "It"s no wonder the Esteemed Ones are so eager to take you in. I don"t know why you resist them so much."
"I"m just a woman." Aritzia said indifferently. "Can"t I want a simple life without ambition or headache?"
"You can say that, but no one will believe in your sincerity when you"re manipulating Sects as large as the Water Mist to do your bidding from the comfort of your home."
Aritzia shook her head, ignoring her brother"s words. "You"ve distracted me, this isn"t what I came here for. I"ll ask you again, have you heard about the matters that just occurred on the celestial floors?"
"Of course I have. True G.o.d Sacharro"s background is even deeper than we believed. However, he"s bullied my little sister, do you think I"ll be in the mood to give him anything?" Primus frowned, a faint killing intent wafting from him.
"We are Sapientia." Aritzia said indifferently. "What we should be worried about most isn"t our faces or prowess, we should be most worried about our knowledge.
"Only when all the knowledge in the world is in our hands can we make those who"ve slighted us pay.
"I"ll accept True G.o.d Sacharro"s offer of 30%. Even if he insisted on 40%, I"d accept it. In the end, which of us will win will become clear."
Aritzia never needed to speak with anyone at all to make this decision. However, Dyon didn"t know that. Dyon also didn"t know that Aritzia had already considered the worse case scenario. Even if Clara and Dyon banded together, she was prepared.
Aritzia wasn"t a fool. In fact, if one were to rank the most intelligent individuals of the martial world, she wouldn"t fall below the top 5. This was why, despite her youth, she held so much power with this Sapientia Quadrant.
In truth, Aritzia didn"t know Clara"s connection with Dyon. With how careful Clara and Dyon had been, there was almost no news of them at all. However… Aritzia learned of something interesting.
More than ten years ago now, there was quite a scandal that occurred in the Sapientia Corner. Rumor had it that someone p.i.s.sed Comet Lord Gallagher off and was taken to be her slave as punishment.
This matter wasn"t inherently a big deal. Most would have ignored the matter entirely. But, Aritzia found it quite odd…
After some investigation, Aritzia learned that the individual Clara took as a slave ended up escaping from her after they entered the Valley of Geniuses. The curious part was that no one saw this young man afterward, it was as though he had disappeared from existence.
After this matter, Aritzia concluded that this so-called escape was likely a coverup excuse Clara used after killing him. Maybe Clara didn"t want her reputation to be sullied, so she didn"t publicly execute the young man.
Up until then, Aritzia had shoved this matter to the back of her mind. However, she inexplicably thought of it again the moment Dyon asked for 30% of the Sapientia Network.
This feeling, that feeling of being on the precipice of a big breakthrough, but not having the final piece of evidence… That was the feeling Aritzia had now, and it was a feeling Dyon had felt many times before.
Back when this matter occurred, the Sapientia Network was in its fledgling state and not many were using it. Plus, even if this hadn"t been the case, who would have cared to record such a small matter? As such, no one got the exact image of the young man Clara took in as a slave.
However, from eyewitness accounts, this young man"s appearance was eerily similar to True G.o.d Sacharro… Exaggeratedly handsome, short red-brown hair with hints of gold, caramel skin… It was almost as though they were copy and pasted from each other.
This feeling was just a feeling, though. Aritzia knew that there were too many holes for her thoughts to be taken seriously.
The biggest hole of them all was that if Dyon had left the Celestial Corner, how was it that that the fog was still around Celestial Corner back then? Also, if Dyon was that individual from back then, why would he be attached to the 99th Quadrant?
