Chapter 2307: Spearhead

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"W-What..." Renara stared blankly at the collapsed ceiling, still unable to fully comprehend what had just happened.

"...What’s happening here?"

"Didn’t I tell you I was going to make you the strongest?" A broad smile spread across Robin’s face, clearly pleased with her reaction. "It wounds my pride a little that you didn’t believe me. Hehe."

"I thought you were talking about a deeper understanding of the Law, more sophisticated techniques, or something like that!" Renara raised her voice slightly, still struggling to process the dramatic change in her own strength.

"Argh!" Richard immediately covered both ears as they began bleeding, while the dust surrounding them was violently blown away by the powerful sound waves generated by nothing more than her slightly raised voice.

"Ah!" Renara hurriedly covered her mouth with both hands, then looked at Robin with an apologetic expression, silently asking for forgiveness after realizing she had injured Richard without intending to.

"Don’t worry. He’s tougher than he looks." Robin chuckled before pointing toward her. "I didn’t give you superhuman strength, some kind of muscle serum, or anything like that. You’re simply free of limits now. You’re using the Energy Conversion Law at its full efficiency, and on top of that, every other Law has stopped trying to restrain you or reduce the effects of what you’re attempting to do. Right now, you’re the true embodiment of a Seventh Grade user operating without any restraints whatsoever."

He then gestured toward everything around them.

"Sound, gravity, friction—every single thing that normally resists our movements and has to be taken into account—they’ll all clear the way for you. They’ll all allow you to use your full strength in a manner the universe has never witnessed before." Then he smiled. "Well... it did appear for a few minutes with Althera. Hehe~"

"....."

Glatheon stared at Renara with unmistakable envy in his eyes.

That girl’s fate had changed completely over the course of only a few centuries.

From an ordinary Nexus State cultivator struggling with internal betrayals and a collapsing Empire...

...to a Law Dominator possessing power the universe had never seen before.

Then he looked toward Robin.

Every bit of it...

...was because of him.

Those were the words Robin had spoken to him on Donara.

And judging by what had happened to both Althera and Renara...

Perhaps fortune really had smiled upon him the day he encountered this thousand-year-old young man.

"The Headmistress of the Dawn light Academy, Althera, possesses the same strength?!" Renara lowered her hand from her mouth in surprise, unable to hide the curiosity in her eyes.

As a woman born into a succession of Empires ruled primarily by men, Renara knew nearly every prominent woman throughout the Empire, along with every woman who had any connection to Robin. Althera was naturally among them. Even though the two had never met face-to-face before, Renara had occasionally followed news about her and had heard no shortage of astonishing stories surrounding her rise.

"The Headmistress of the Dawn light Academy?" Glatheon frowned, "Just how long have you been in seclusion?"

"...?" Renara frowned back.

"And who exactly are you?!"

"Alright, alright." Robin gestured for Renara to look at him. "You’ve missed quite a few events, and we’re not about to begin a history lesson here. I’ll send you somewhere you’ll learn most of what you’ve missed."

He continued,

"As for Althera, she reached the same level of power you possess now for a few brief minutes. Then she erased every bit of her strength completely and returned to zero. Right now she’s rebuilding her very first foundation..."

"...using a Master Law."

"A Master Law?" Renara murmured, repeating the words almost instinctively.

"What is it?" Robin smiled, "Would you like to become like her? I can arrange that as well. But keep in mind that the training will be both difficult and extremely long. Althera probably won’t recover her current level of strength for several millennia."

"...."

Renara lowered her head for a moment before slowly shaking it.

"I don’t want to feel weak ever again."

Then she looked directly into Robin’s eyes without the slightest hesitation.

"I like the position of spearhead."

She carefully rose to her feet, moving as gently as possible out of fear that she might accidentally destroy something else with even the slightest careless movement.

"Bring me the oath."

"....."

Robin stared at Renara’s face for several silent seconds before smiling.

"There’s no need."

"...?!?!!?!"

Glatheon’s eyes opened as wide as they possibly could.

He was going to grant her such overwhelming power...

...and simply let her leave without a binding oath?

What in the world was happening?

Renara, however, didn’t appear surprised in the slightest.

A faint smile appeared on her face as she nodded, as though she had already expected that answer deep down.

"I’ve heard many times that you never require oaths from those within your inner circle. You always say that if one of them were ever to betray you, you’d accept the consequences willingly, because it would only prove that your own judgment had failed. You’re confident in them—confident that no one within that circle would ever betray you..."

"...Thank you for allowing me to become part of it."

Then she continued with complete seriousness, her expression becoming calmer than ever before.

"And don’t worry. I have no intention of ever leaving it, nor will I be the one who makes you regret relying upon absolute trust."

"Good." A grin stretched from ear to ear across Robin’s face, genuine satisfaction clearly visible in his expression. "I know you won’t disappoint me, Renara." Then he continued calmly, as though assigning an ordinary task rather than one capable of shaking the universe. "I’ll give you one month from today. Get used to your new strength, explore the Energy Conversion Law more deeply, and develop a few new techniques that truly suit your fighting style..."

"...Then erase my enemies for me."

"Understood." Renara nodded without the slightest hesitation. "The head of the Emperor of the Seven Thrones will be beneath your foot before the end of the month."

Gulp.

Glatheon instinctively grabbed his own neck.

If he had stubbornly remained hostile toward Aro...

Would the name of the Vast Ice Empire be mentioned today by these monsters?!

"Hmm?" Robin looked puzzled for a moment before suddenly remembering something. "Ah, right. That’s the Empire Caesar has been fighting for some time now, isn’t it?" He casually waved his hand dismissively. "That’s between you and Caesar. Once you’ve completed your mission, return to him, and he’ll assign your next objectives."

"...?" Renara looked at him in confusion.

"Then... who exactly is my current target?"

"Someone who humiliated me twice within the Soul Society, when I wasn’t strong enough to repay the insult." Robin’s expression darkened, the smile completely disappearing from his face. "Someone the Syndicate believes has become powerful enough to destroy me and everything I’ve built, provided Arkail is removed from the equation."

"....?!"

Glatheon’s expression instantly turned to fear.

He had already guessed the rest before Robin even said it.

"Renara."

Robin’s voice became completely serious.

"One month from now... I want you to do to Zargul exactly what you did to the Emperor of the Iron Boars."

"Zargul?" Renara froze for a brief moment before her eyes widened to their limit.

"You mean... the Sorcerer Behemoth?!" Then she raised her voice slightly in disbelief. "That’s impossible for me to accomplish alone!!"

"...." Robin frowned deeply.

"And why exactly should it be impossible after I’ve given you this much power?"

Even Glatheon could already feel the atmosphere growing heavier as the conversation continued.

"The Sorcerer Zargul is in Sector 98, while we’re in Sector 100. It’ll take me years just to reach him. How am I supposed to kill him within a month?" Renara rested her head against one hand while thinking through the logistics as quickly as possible. "...I suppose you could use the Grand Gates, but since we’re at war with them, those gates will certainly be under heavy surveillance. Secondly, I know absolutely nothing about Sector 98, nor do I even know how to find him... Never mind. I’ll contact the Shadow Swords and have them arrange something suitable."

"Hehe~"

Robin’s smile returned immediately, as though he had been waiting for that exact response.

Then he casually waved a hand beside Renara.

Hummm...

A rectangular golden portal materialized beside her shoulder, its surface shimmering quietly with golden light.

Then she heard Robin say,

"Spend the month in there. After that... he’ll arrange everything you need to do."

"Hmm?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Renara stepped into the portal, not even pausing to ask who "he" was.

The very next instant, Aro’s horrified scream echoed from the other side.

"Whaaaa?!!"
