Andromeda Constellation.
Angelina hurriedly peered at the Star Power Pool in front of her. The richness of the Star Power beamed down from the sky, shrouding the pool. The Star Power within the pool was dense, like a thick fog rummaging on the surface.
In the distant, battle robes could be seen floating within the Pool.
Suddenly, Angelina shouted: “Success!”
Ta Dun who was at her side also let out a shade of anxiety.
The rays of Star Power had become fainter and quickly disappeared. Within the pool, hundreds of silver battle robes could be seen floating near its surface.
Ta Dun could not resist. He stepped into the pool and brought up one of the silver battle robes that was floating nearby.
Angelina rushed to his side: “What happened? Father!”
One could not see the traces of fur clothing of an Energy Beast on the silver battle robe. The robe seemed like it was constructed from a sheet of silver tin foil without a speck of flaw on it. The rich Star Power emanating from the robe made it unique.
Ta Dun wore the silver robe without hesitating. Once he put it on, the robe immediately shrank to fit the contours of his body. Then the shiny silver rays radiating from the robe immediately dissipated. It now looked as if it was a normal robe.
Suddenly, Ta Dun disappeared.
Angelina eyes gaped wide. She nearly let out a loud cry after that incident.
Moments later, Ta Dun suddenly appeared right in front of Angelina, his face filled with excitement: “Good! Very good!”
As a military general, he knew how valuable it is to have the ability to become invisible.
Suddenly, there was clamouring outside. A guard hurriedly rushed in and reported: “Master! General! There are a lot of commerce branch masters outside waiting for you. They are protesting that they also have a part of the treasures. And they wanted to see the creation of it.”
Angelina turned pale while Ta Dun squinted his eyes.
Angelina quickly regained her calm and replied: “Let them in then!”
The guard nodded and sped out to receive the crowd.
Moments later, a large group of people barged in.
“Master! Master! We provided money for the Energy Beast. We should be entitled to at least parts of the items that have been created from it!”
“That’s right. You should at least let us take a peek!”
….
They suddenly spotted Ta Dun standing beside Angelina. The noises died down. Fear carved into each of the men’s faces.
Angelina turned to face the crowd and gave it a quick glance. She could recognize several of the commerce branch masters from within. She knew that there was an individual working behind the shadows, who had powerful abilities that managed to arouse more than half of the commerce committee.
If her father was not back in Andromeda City, she would have been in trouble.
But now, she was not worried and said indifferently: “You all know that I am the Master. Yet you all still barged in to create a ruckus.”
Her tone, however, was amiable, as if she was saying it as a joke.
One of the commerce branch master tried to explain the situation: “We just wanted to…”
Angelina did not let him finish his sentence, and interjected immediately: “Which one of you started this? Show yourself!”
This loud cry from Angelina shocked the crowd. Most of their faces changed. Now, they realized that even though the master was young, but she was inherently hot-tempered. She even dared to declare war on the Honorable Martial Group if need be!
All of them kept quiet out of fear.
Several of the people looked at each other. They could see the fear building up in their eyes. Initially, they thought that with the large number of people present, Angelina might give in to their demands. They did not expect Angelina to be so straightforward to them, without giving them a chance to achieve a compromise.
Some knew that there were no other way out of this mess.
A middle aged man stood out from the crowd and replied: “Master, if you need to give out punishments, I am willing to take responsibility for this situation.”
Another person, plumper in size, stumbled out: “Punish me as well.”
The 3rd person who stood out was skinny in size. His triangle eyes held a sense of dangerous aura, and said: “Master, even though we are all overly excited, we are not unreasonable people. All of us have suffered great casualties. Our keen interest in the Energy Beast arise from our need to boost our morale and recover what we have lost in our spirits. Master has said that we would be rewarded for what we have sacrificed, and I do agree with that. So it is fair that we ask to take a look at what you have, am I right everyone?”
Angelina took a deep breath. She knew that she was in deep trouble. These 3 men standing right in front of her are no small merchants. They are all one of the top 5 branch masters in the commerce committee.
The speech by the skinny one galvanized the crowd, causing them to express their displeasure.
Suddenly, Ta Dun who was constantly squinting opened his mouth: “I haven’t been in Andromeda City for so many years.”
His statement garnered the attention of the crowd.
