Rex fixed his gaze on the woman in front of him and boldly checked her stats.

...

The moment her status window popped up, Rex whistled silently in his thoughts.

Being a two-star Awakened Demigod—one divinity rank above his own—her stats were ridiculously impressive overall. Especially her intelligence, which stood out as insanely high, way beyond normal, and that was the real threat Rex sensed from her.

She must be equipped with an item that doubles it.

No other reason could justify such a massive boost in that single stat.

Besides that, Rex noticed she hailed from a completely unfamiliar realm.

Her primary power was a technique, not like an Elementalist or any energy source used by Supernatural races. Rather than a Soul Artifact and Echo, she possessed a Phantom Source—likely akin to a Soul Artifact, given its grade and type.

Rex remembered the Godlings he battled before also carried something similar.

Before calling forth that unseen spear, the Godling invoked the Primordial Authority.

<Notice: The Permit section refers to the authority within a Specific God Realm. The Primordial Authority was a second-class permit within the Primordial Meadow. It allowed its holder to access foreign realms that one can access. Enough to open realms without the suppression from the Primordial Meadow.>

Exactly as Rex suspected, the Primordial Authority was precisely what he desperately required at this moment.

Likely granted by a Cluster Custodian, he figured.

Rex quickly scanned the remaining enforcers and found none possessed the Primordial Authority.

It appeared to be a rare and exclusive power.

“Do you know the punishment for threatening an enforcer?”

Her words yanked Rex from his daze.

He rubbed the back of his head and let out a chuckle.

“I apologize for my friend’s loose mouth,” He clapped Nash’s shoulder, signaling him to apologize. “We ran into some trouble with certain folks not long ago, and it’s got us on edge. I hope you can understand.”

“It was my fault for being rash,” Nash dipped his head slightly. “I’d appreciate it if you let this slide just once.”

With Nash’s apology, the tense aura from the woman eased somewhat.

She gave Nash an approving glance, then turned to Rex, “And where did this trouble occur?”

Beneath her hood’s shadow, her eyes narrowed with sharp insight.

“Is that what this is about?” Rex swept his eyes across the group, lingering on each face just past comfort. “Because I stepped into this realm? I thought it was open to all, especially curious types like myself.”

“Isn’t that exactly the issue?” The woman cocked her head faintly. “We have no idea why you came here.”

Rex had anticipated before entering the God Realm that his arrival would ping certain beings.

Even Great Elder Rosa detected him as an outsider from another realm, and she wasn’t even among the Spirit Realm’s top powers. Naturally, stepping into the God Realm would draw plenty of attention.

And he was spot on.

Rex couldn’t quite grasp why the enforcers waited until now to confront him.

Looking back, if they knew of an intruder, they should have blocked him immediately after he left the protective range of his entry item. Yet they let him reach the town before intercepting.

He pondered if that section of the Primordial Meadow held some unique trait.

“Naturally, like everyone else who visits, I seek just one thing,” Rex declared, revealing his purpose outright. “And since I’ve already bothered you esteemed enforcers, you wouldn’t mind assisting me with it.”

Every being in the God Realm required the Overseer of Realms’ approval to travel.

So it made perfect sense for him to request the same.

“I see…” the woman nodded, glancing at her team. “Then let me guide you there.”

In perfect sync, the other enforcers melted back into the reflections they’d emerged from and disappeared. They’d lingered only as backup, in case Rex proved hostile. With no such threat evident, they withdrew.

Or so Vadyn wanted him to believe.

Rex grinned to himself, noting their status windows still floated in the reflections.

Though undetectable to his senses, nothing slipped past the System’s scan.

“Perfect, with Enforcer Vadyn in charge, I know I’ll be safe,” Rex flashed a smile and faced Nash. “Go tell Davina and Lilliana I’m heading off with this fine lady. Assure them there’s no need to worry.”

Vadyn regarded Rex quietly.

Shock flickered in her eyes, impossible to conceal.

‘How does he know my name…? Is someone aiding him?’ Vadyn’s brow furrowed.

“Am I correct in assuming this?” Rex looked back at the startled Vadyn, jolting her from surprise. “That it won’t take long?”

“Is that a threat?” Vadyn’s tone chilled further.

“What is?”

“How do you know my name?”

Rex found her directness refreshing—a rare quality. She wore her emotions openly. Her current hostility rang clear in every word, with no effort to mask it.

“Lucky guess,” He laughed softly. “Is it really Vadyn?”

“Don’t toy with me,” Her stare intensified. “You’re in no place for games.”

“Toy with you…? Like the game you’re playing on me now?” Rex’s cool facade shattered like ice in blazing sun, revealing a keener edge beneath. “Your team’s still lurking. Think I can’t tell?” He locked eyes without flinching. “I don’t get it. What makes you put me on such a high pedestal for this scrutiny?”

“Acting tough again?” Vadyn scoffed. “Sure you want to go there?”

“If you’ve already judged me without knowing a thing, why should I stay polite?” Rex countered. He fought to hold back, yet their side kept testing his limits. It wasn’t right.

“Bold talk from a Spirit Realm native,”

“I arrived from the Spirit Realm,” Rex halted, a sly grin spreading. “But that doesn’t make me a Spirit.” He let the statement linger. “I wonder… Does the Primordial Authority let you bully freely? I figured the Overseer was majestic. But from the followers…”

Rex trailed off.

He left it dangling, eyeing Vadyn head to toe like a profound letdown.

“Bastard!”

An enforcer burst from the reflection, bellowing furiously.

Witnessing his leader insulted likely snapped his restraint—or perhaps a white knight impulse drove him—he lunged. Straight into Nash’s fist. The blow slammed his gut like a mountain’s weight, forcing him back several stumbling paces.

It caused no real pain.

Nash lacked divine strands to wound a Demigod, but pain wasn’t the goal.

A slap across the face didn’t need to sting.

More enforcers emerged, encircling Rex and Nash anew.

Right as they poised to strike, a command halted them.

“Enough!”

Vadyn froze them in place. Some enforcers glared at her in disapproval—urging her to let them punish the insolent intruder—but her upheld hand quelled all dissent. “Back to your posts,” Her order boomed with authority. “No reason for you to remain.”

Though hesitant, the enforcers followed orders and departed.

Her straightforward style might rub peers the wrong way, but it earned loyalty from her subordinates.

Each enforcer faded into their reflections.

This time for real, as Rex watched their status windows vanish.

“Forgive my earlier rudeness,” Vadyn thumped her fist to her chest and bowed. “Let me atone by leading you to the right contact for your permit. And yes, if you’ve nothing to conceal, it’ll be quick.”

“No harm in a second chance,” Rex inclined his head. “Then I’m in your hands.”

Rex jerked his chin, dismissing Nash before trailing Vadyn.

She led him down the bustling main street, not a quiet path, attracting stares at every turn. With Primordial Authority, she could portal anywhere in the Primordial Meadow.

Far faster to their goal.

But Rex grasped her motive.

Vadyn delayed the direct trip; she paraded him publicly.

Exposing his face, registering his arrival, imprinting him on the townsfolk’s minds.

Should he turn problematic, all could aid in tracking him.

Despite her apology and aid, trust remained absent after his antics. This display warned Rex of her suspicions—that any misstep would cost dearly.

Rex smirked inside.

He never sought conflict from the outset—but acquiring the Primordial Authority, or something similar, wouldn’t come easily. If it did, all would possess it, yet they didn’t.

He hunted for bargaining power.

Leverage for potential talks.

Sadly, the town exuded utter calm—no whiff of unrest. Even distant soldiers, fully geared, betrayed no battle readiness. They trained, drilled formations smoothly.

Mere routine upkeep. Honing an edge unused for now.

As a military man, Rex sensed from the vibe alone that pressure weighed light on them.

Building leverage here proved nearly impossible.

Thus, he aimed to unsettle Vadyn.

Implying a mightier backer was prime leverage.

After all, he only wanted travel permits between realms—nothing extravagant. Projecting a powerful shadow would nudge authorities to approve, not from fear, but to avoid pointless friction.
