CHAPTER 104: Monster Camouflage Grail.
----------------------------------------
By experiencing the Tier-Suppression I deployed, the Sea Lord could tell the difference in our power levels. He then approached with difficulty and pleaded, "Please, Sir Jay, forgive my subordinate's insolence and spare his life. In return, I promise to have him serve under you for the rest of his life."
He then looked at the male Atlan and emphasised, "Akor, as long as you agree, blink your eyes thrice. Reply quickly! Your life depends on it!"
Then the male Atlan, Akor, blinked thrice to convey his willingness. Of course, he only did it due to his fear of death.
I watched the situation play out and found it rather funny because I didn't intend to kill Atlan, Akor, or any other Atlans for that matter.
Just as I activated Tier-suppression, Earth Wyrm MJ mentally contacted me, saying that at the sea bed location I was standing on, it detected some signs that indicate the presence of a Spirit Metal ore reserve beneath it.
That was why I took out the
Looking at me coat the
I held the hilt of the sword with my two hands and plunged it into the seabed with all my strength while activating
The solidified Sword Aura extended to a depth of 10 meters and pierced the rock, causing the nearby area to shake violently with tremors.
After that, I removed the tier suppression I used on them and turned my head towards the Sea Lord, "I have some business beneath this sea bed location, now take your subordinates and move further away from here and wait there for me to come back.
Also, don't try to escape; I have a few things to discuss with you. Don't worry; I am not going to kill over a small matter like this."
The Sea Lord nodded, and led his fellow Atlans out of their hideout.
Once I confirmed they were far away, I pulled the sword out and shrunk my body size using
Once my body size reached a height of 5 inches, I jumped into the hole and fell into a spirit metal ore mine, illuminated in green light.
However, the mine was not very big and only had a small amount of Spirit metal ore.
But that didn't disappoint me because when I used the extended Sword Aura, it only made a small mark on the lumps of the green-coloured metal ore.
Just from that, I could tell this was quite rare, and MJ's words confirmed that.
"Master! Your 37 Luck stats didn't go to waste. This is Emerald Spirit Metal ore, a Grade-4 mineral ore, which can be used for creating Grade-4 Spirit Equipment. Although the amount is quite low, I could make one or two Epic Grade Spirit Equipment with this."
I asked him right away, "MJ, is it possible for you to make a replica of that Dual-bladed Silver Glaive?"
"Of Course master, but with this amount, I can only make one such weapon."
I was overjoyed after hearing that because having a Grade-4 Spirit Weapon will let me successfully unleash my trump card
The Grade-3 Silver Glaive replicas that MJ previously made for me couldn't last for more than three seconds under the Origin Energy, which was less the time needed for me to unleash
Although I had never used it before, I knew that the damage output of the skill I had learned from my Innate Talen's predecessor would be heaven-defying.

I would feel a lot safer with it in my arsenal. Although I know the various stages of the trial program and its details beforehand, I still had to be prepared, as anything could happen and put me in a dangerous situation.
After that, I used the telekinesis ability of
I was glad that the Spirit Items like my
Once I was done with that, I went back to the Atlans' hideout on the surface of the seabed and returned to my original size.
Following that, I met up with the Atlans whom I had waiting for me nearby.
Except for the Sea lord, Aton, all of them lowered their heads when my gaze passed by them, not daring to look me in the eye. It seemed that the Tier-suppression I used on them had ingrained lasting fear in them.
Ignoring them, I moved towards the Sea Lord, who was tense about what I wanted to discuss, and asked him, "Shall we begin now?"
Hearing my words, the Sea Lord and the Atlans were taken aback because I used their native language to speak.
I showcased speaking fluently in their native language to hint to him that he couldn't hide anything from me.
"Ye...Yes, Sir Jay, Please, after you." He said while gesturing with the utmost respect, fearing that I would go back on my words if they displease me in any way.
I could only shake my head after seeing how fearful they were of me. But I didn't correct them anymore. After all, having them fear me would be beneficial to me in what I am about to do.
"I will get straight to the point. Well, a possession of yours caught my interest. I would like to exchange it for items of equal value."
The Sea Lord's expression immediately hardened upon hearing my words. He right away understood that the possession I was talking about was the 'Monster Camouflage Grail'.
It was the most precious Spirit Item he had with him, and with that, the Atlans managed to move freely within the trial zone without having to fear even the Low-Phase Tier-3 monsters that were released on the start of Day-7.
Now that I asked to exchange such a valuable Spirit Item with me, he was reluctant but didn't voice his feelings and unwillingly took out a Grail from what seems to be an Uncommon grade Spirit ring.
It shone in golden rays of light that made it look exceptional. I used
_____________________
A special Grail that produces ten drops of golden nectar per day that grants' Monster Camouflage Buff' upon its consumption.
Durability: 100/100
Inherent Skill:
(During this buff, your presence will be camouflaged as a monster, causing Tier-3 and below monsters to not attack you unless they were provoked first.)
____________________
It seemed that the buff couldn't only be used indefinitely as it was limited to ten times a day.
Regardless, having that buff could reduce me some trouble dealing with hordes of monsters when I break the system barriers while heading to other trial zones.
Other than that, there are many more uses with the Spirit Item in front of me.
Looking at the reluctance of the Sea Lord and the other Atlans who were listening in on our conversation, I brought out five Grade-3 spiritual fruits, each being a different one among the five main attribute fruits.
While having those fruits float above my palm, I said, "You all must have known about Spiritual Fruits, right? You might have a few in your possessions, but I doubt if any of those fruits that you have were of Grade-3.
However, the ones I brought out are the real deal. Why don't you all check them for yourselves."
Once the Sea Lord and Atlans used
Moreover, the respective fruit could improve each attribute by ten stats upon consuming it for the first time.
"Since there are nine of you, I will use nine sets of these five spiritual fruits as an exchange. Using these could improve your overall strength, which will be beneficial for you in the First Tournament.
Let me reveal a vital piece of information to you all. Among the 1000 Trail zones that participate in the Trial Region tournament, only ten trail zones would come out as winners and be rewarded bountifully along with the qualifications to participate in the upcoming Tournaments of the Alpha Program.
These spiritual fruits could increase your trial zone's chance of entering among the top 10 of this Trial Region."
Even after listening to what I have said, the Atlans were reluctant to exchange with the
If they had known the importance of becoming one of the top 10 trial zones in the Tournament, they would have done anything for an opportunity like this.
I didn't go into details about the benefits of winning the Tournaments. After all, there wasn't any need for me to do so because none of them dared to voice their opinion due to the overwhelming fear they had for me.
