Nala shifted her massive reptilian frame, her serrated scales gleaming in the ambient light. "What do you propose, Kalthar?"
With a flourish, Kalthar produced a small, gleaming shard of vibranium, its silvery surface shimmering with an otherworldly energy. "Vibranium. Costly, rare, and virtually indestructible. Its value surpasses that of gold by magnitudes. With this, our wealth shall be impervious to even the most audacious of spacefaring marauders."
Vyrin, its luminous form pulsating in contemplation, extended tendrils of energy towards the shard. "A wise choice, Kalthar. Vibranium's properties are indeed unmatched. It will be our safeguard against the perils of the cosmos." Vibranium had soon become the talk of the town once it was out and about. The Luminary Collective being near helped them a lot and the galaxy traders were able to get their hands on this pretty.
Andromeda Galaxy was a 3rd class galaxy but this galaxy was kind of a trade hub for many nearby galaxies and traders somehow had a huge built in this galaxy. The galaxy was military oriented and thus helped them with the security. Being a 3 class galaxy helped the traders with their taxes too. Though different galaxies had different tax regime, the Andromeda galaxy was a safe place for escaping taxes for traders and thus helped in establishing major trade routes.
And so, the decision was made. Kalthar set about bartering his colossal hoard, trading gold, jewels, and ancient artifacts for the precious vibranium. As the transactions unfolded, the chamber buzzed with the hum of intergalactic commerce, and the once towering pyramids of gold dwindled, replaced by caches of the coveted metal.
As the last exchange was completed, Kalthar gazed upon his newly acquired treasure, a sense of satisfaction coursing through his many limbs. With vibranium now in his possession, he knew that his wealth would journey with him across galaxies, safe from the clutches of interstellar brigands.
And so, in the heart of Zyloria Prime, under the watchful gaze of distant constellations, Kalthar and his council stood united, guardians of a wealth that transcended the boundaries of worlds. Their legacy was written in vibranium, a testament to the enduring spirit of the cosmos' shrewdest traders.
----------------------------------------
These kinds of things were happening the universe near the Luminary Collective and some 1st class galaxy had also paid attention to Vibranium and after knowing the properties wanted to get their hands on it. But the main perpetrator at the moment had called Lumis and asked to start a meeting with some of the franchise that he had recommended.
Like Bethesda, Nintendo, CD Project Red and many others. And not only that but also novel franchises like Harry Potter, Warhammer and many others. Robin had already tried out if he could bring things from VR world to real world and it was possible. In the VR world he just needed to touch the thing with the hand, neglecting the size of the thing, and with just a single thought he could send the thing to reality.
Though he didn't try to bring some spaceship but he did try to bring a thing that was twice the size and he was able to do so easily. Thus VR world for him worked like normal game itself since his abilities still worked.
Lumis was very happy to get the green light and promised a huge percentage in the game. Robin just nodded and hoped that his abilities wouldn't see that as a cheat and make his work go to garbage. While Robin had given the green light, his parents were now busy talking about the marriage and moving.
After much talks, Cathrin and Robin decided to have the marriage in the capital city of Luminary Collective. It was Robin who suggested that as he wanted to give her the best wedding possible and Cathrin didn't exactly oppose it as any woman would love to have their marriage in a grand way.

After arriving the first thing that Robin asked to do was to help set up connectivity between the universe and Earth. Artanis in his roaming the galaxy had also come to know about the technology of the universe and calibrate accordingly. Robin didn't want to let this opportunity go, so after ge came back he established a company according to the norms and also an intergalactic company in the universe and registering it under the S class galaxy.
Doing so he had started the process of building up a proper communication center built around the whole solar system. This new technology would ensure that the solar system was connected with the universe in real time. Establishing this would help Robin have a constant source of income which wasn't tied with any other factor.
As long as humanity lived, this would be his income and though it was too less in the grand scheme of things, he could still fall back on this if his abilities ever leave him. Robin at his core was always a bit paranoid that his ability would stop one day and everything go down the smokes.
So he was always keeping up contingencies wherever possible. While Artanis was busy with establishing and putting up communication centers around the solar system using the help of other spaceships that Robin had brought over time, Lumis was now in London.
Lumis had talked extensively about the topic of universe and gave a small version of what was going on. The more the people learnt about what was going on in the universe the more they understood that the Supreme Leader of North Korea was now on a whole new level that they could never reach in their lifetime. No amount of political or militaristic influence could ever triumph of what he had just achieved in one journey.
They had a feeling now that the Supreme Leader was hiding more and would reveal his true depth slowly but surely. Lumis also got to know how the Supreme Leader had emerged. He was a nobody and suddenly one day a country just had bigger guns and better technology. This made his suspicions that Robin was connected with S class galaxy more firm and that he was sponsored by them.
For sure he belonged to this place since their species was never found in the universe and thus it could be said that some S class galaxy high level citizen had given him some kind of authority and make a name for himself in the universe.
At least that was the thought of Lumis at the moment but he also wasn't able to connect the dots. One of the dots was Vibranium and how easily Robin had said that he would able to supply it. There were many secrets that Lumis wasn't able to make head or tail of and could only wait and watch.
The World leaders after getting to know the in and out, and after communicating with Edmund Duke about the whole situation decided to invite to various countries and right now Lumis was in London, invited by the Royal family.
The general public got to know that humanity had finally made contact with aliens in their first expedition and apparently he was invited by the Royal family, and this information sent the media into frenzy. After much talks and getting the consent of Lumis, the BBC got the rights to air the first interview. But that was only in the last day in London before he leaves for USA for another invitation and work.
Lumis actually had a good time with the Royal family and got to know more about the history of this planet. He wasn't surprised that the species was just like them, but what did surprise him was the fact the planet was a dangerous where many of things were born to kill humans in fundamental level.
If a person in his planet was left alone with no resources or technology, he would do fine because the environment around caters to them by a huge margin. It was what humans called it 'having it easy' but in this planet if a person was not accustomed and was left in an island away from civilization with no connections, he or she would die within days. But this was not the case in Zora. One person would be fine away from everything, and the environment would neve make their species hard to live.
Lumis really got to have a different perspective of life as he interacted more with the humans.

The meeting took place in a posh penthouse suite in the heart of London, a city steeped in history and tradition. Lumis stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the iconic skyline, a juxtaposition of Earth's ancient and modern beauty.
Seated across from him were the creators of Warhammer 40k, their faces a blend of awe and excitement. The room was abuzz with the energy of potential, the promise of a groundbreaking venture pulsating in the air.
