Chapter 479: Same!

"This has nothing to do with what I just asked you, Mr. Black Sand." Loren spoke with an utterly calm expression.

The golden figure seated inside the shop saw that Loren remained arrogantly indifferent, as if he had him completely figured out.

He shook his helmet in a mocking manner and slowly rose to his feet.

An ancient, dusty, decaying aura erupted from that heavy figure!

It instantly swept through the entire shop!

"It seems the destruction of the Elf Empire didn't teach you anything..." That hoarse, weathered voice sounded again.

The golden figure who had risen from his throne fully released the power he usually kept hidden.

He cast an oppressive gaze down at the elf standing at his shop's entrance.

Standing a full three meters tall, he was easily able to look down on the blonde elf at the door, who was barely two meters in height.

...

As the golden figure rose from his seat, a massive black throne with crossed swords at its top came into Loren's view.

Loren realized that the ancient, mysterious aura emanating from this figure had completely concealed a black throne behind him before he stood up.

"The chair's decorations aren't bad." Loren remarked with a smile, completely unfazed by the ancient presence the golden figure had released upon rising.

"I hope your strength matches your arrogance."

After rising, the golden figure slowly raised his right hand, encased in a golden armguard, his fingers slightly spread, aiming leisurely at Loren standing at the entrance.

The next moment!

Countless black sand grains flew out from the palm of that golden right hand, hurtling straight toward Loren.

The black sand formed an enormous hand, reaching out to crush the figure at the doorway!

The ancient presence that permeated the shop surged once more!

The very air became saturated with the decaying smell of endless time!

...

Watching the attack launched by the golden figure, Loren's expression didn't change. He only tilted his head slightly, as if doing nothing.

Perhaps only the little sprite on his shoulder noticed.

Someone's right index finger had moved just a little.

"Ding!"

A crisp sound echoed softly within the shop!

The next moment!

The small shop interior lit up with countless teleportation doors of light!

The teleportation doors of light, engraved with star symbols, filled the space inside the shop!

Densely packed teleportation doors instantly sliced through the enormous hand made of black sand, sending every fragment of the scattered black sand attack out of this spiritual world!

That wasn't all!

Even the ancient golden figure was instantly split into countless pieces by the countless teleportation doors of light inside the shop!!

After his spiritual phantom was divided into countless parts, it too was teleported out of this spiritual world!!!

The shop, which had been tense just moments ago, instantly became empty, leaving only a figure in a white robe.

...

The battle was over in an instant!

Loren, who had always yearned for spatial abilities, understood how to use his space power better than most spatial ability users!

Countless times in the past, when he had envied spatial ability users, he had silently simulated countless different scenarios in his mind!

Now, with the "blessing" of the spiritual world, he had finally realized those ideas without restraint!

A world-class spatial ability user—Mr. Loren!

Was born!

Teleportation doors of light were also a form of spatial ability!

Moreover, they were the highest-level spatial ability granted by the spiritual world!

Within this spiritual world, these teleportation doors engraved with star symbols had the highest priority!

Unless someone could completely suppress the tier of this spiritual world!

Otherwise, any form of attack, even intangible mental attacks, could be accurately identified and teleported out of this spiritual world!

...

Having dealt with the golden figure using the teleportation doors, Loren walked slowly toward the black throne inside the shop hall, under the admiring gaze of the little sprite on his shoulder.

"Mr. Destiny, you seem very suited to controlling this world."

Miss Jasmine whispered in Loren's ear, her tone ambiguous.

"Really?"

Reaching the black throne, Loren responded to the little sprite on his shoulder while tilting his head to examine the peculiar throne before him.

"Yes. Even my former master wasn't as skilled at using the teleportation doors as you are, Mr. Destiny."

"The spatial authority of this spiritual world seems made for you..."

The little sprite's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Hearing Jasmine's heavily suggestive words, Loren couldn't help but chuckle softly.

He recalled the marvelous feeling of the entire spiritual world assisting him just moments ago and replied with a smile:

"Maybe it's because this world likes me. What do you think, Miss Jasmine?"

"Of... Of course! I like you too, Mr. Destiny!"

Feeling her hint had been received, Jasmine covered her shy eyes with her chubby little hands again.

Hearing what sounded like a surrender from her, Loren smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth and said no more.

The test was over...

I've already expelled a demigod-level tavern shareholder, and the tavern founder still hasn't appeared...

It seems the tavern founder is indeed in some kind of unknown disconnection...

Then... it's time to have some fun...

No need to be so cautious anymore...

...

Having completed his true exploration of the spiritual world, Loren looked at the black throne before him and waved his hand!

Another teleportation door of light lit up!

The door of light completely enveloped the black throne!

The next moment! A flash of light!

The black throne was also banished from this spiritual world by Loren!

"Clean now."

Loren nodded with satisfaction.

Now, this shop was completely his!

After banishing the throne left by the golden figure, Loren surveyed the empty shop hall and felt something was missing.

He tilted his head and thought for a moment.

Then he turned slightly to look at the little sprite on his shoulder.

"Miss Jasmine, can you use your authority to decorate this shop a little?"

Hearing Loren's question, Jasmine rose from his shoulder, fluttering her transparent wings, and flew joyfully into the air.

"Of course!"

"Mr. Destiny, what style do you prefer?"

At this, Loren lowered his head and thought for a moment before speaking softly:

"Just a simple office style."

"Alright, Mr. Destiny! Give me two minutes!"

The little sprite hovering in the air seemed exceptionally happy.

This is the first task Mr. Destiny has given me!

I must not let him down!!!

Jasmine, you can do it!

Go!!!

...

Receiving the little sprite's response, Loren nodded slightly and turned to walk out of the shop...

After passing through the blue light curtain that served as the shop's entrance, Loren looked to the right side of the shop's door, where a white pillar stood. A familiar golden light curtain floated there.

On that light curtain was displayed the shareholder business card of the one codenamed "Black Sand."

Loren stared at the light curtain, raised his hand, and gently wiped it over the card!

The next second.

As his long fingers brushed over the light curtain, the content displayed on it had completely changed:

"Shareholder Name: Destiny."

"Race: Pure Human."

"Needs: Spirit Stones (Mana Crystals, Ling Shi, etc.)."

"Services Offered: Precise Prophecy (6 million Spirit Stones per session), Solving Various Troubles (anything below God Tier, price negotiable)."

...

After modifying the shareholder business card floating outside his shop, Loren's brow suddenly furrowed!

Before he could admire his shop's introduction, he turned to look at a slender figure wrapped in a dark green cloak on the street.

His eyes narrowed involuntarily!

In the distance, a slender figure draped in a dark green cloak was slowly approaching Loren's shop.

Interestingly, the figure's ears were similar to Loren's current spiritual phantom disguise.

They were also somewhat long and pointed...
