The Empire has the Supremes while the Clan has the 9 rings. I have no idea what Golden Lord has as immediate subordinates. If we were to call the top 5 the current cream of the crop, then the subordinates would be the world's peak experts. At the same level, from what I have seen, your battle standards seem to be around the level of supremes, which is not bad.

Unlike me or golden lord your actually a Sovereign and the lead one at that, so in time you will definitely stand on top. I will help you out whenever I can and follow your lead, as long as you keep your promise from 5 years ago."

Will grinned mischievously, "Don't worry bro. I got you. Won't Genesis mind you, uhm, you know, saying this sort of thing?"

Ezra replied, "I don't give a s.h.i.+t. Genesis is stronger than me, but not to the point were he can kill me. If we both fought to the death, even though I would definitely die, he would lose an arm or two while trying, possibly even more."

As Ezra made his declaration Will felt the killing intent oozing from the former's body.

'Not really how someone should describe their boss but okay.'

"Anyway Will tell me the plan you have to deal with Eridium? Also five years ago beside me, who else did you contact?"

Will stretched comfortably in his seat, "Well, I didn't have much time and could only contact a few people, so I picked you, Taku, Ramos, Katya, and b.a.l.l.s."

"Wait, Katya as in the ice witch?"

"Yeah, that's the one."

"Why the heck would you choose that nutcase?"

"You do realize that when I spoke to you, you were literally in an insane asylum right?"

"..."

Ezra coughed lightly to change the subject, "Ehem anyway, I have a rough idea of where these guys are right now except for b.a.l.l.s. The rule we agreed on 5 years ago was that we would only group up once you become strong enough but, honestly, everyone you just mentioned is way stronger than you right now so you have to get stronger…fast."

"Yeah I know, I have a long road ahead of me."

"I came ahead of time because I had a convenient reason to come here. If the other four are who I think they are, then you need to be at least level 125 before you can bother contacting them. Especially Ramos, you how rough he is. As for Katya, don't bother contacting her. I will deal with that wh.o.r.e. f.u.c.k you made my life difficult."

Will had also roughly figured out who the others were as well, except for b.a.l.l.s of course. Will, Ramos, b.a.l.l.s, Katya, Taku and Ezra. These six were part of the same guild in a popular online game 5 years ago.

5 years ago, just before entering King Yama's gate, Will contacted them all one by one, giving them information about the system, giving them an advantage when choosing cla.s.ses. Will also took the opportunity to ask Modus to wipe his existence from everyone in the world except these 5 people. He also asked Modus to make these 5 part of the first wave of users.

Modus agreed, so long as Will only interacted with the others when he was strong enough.

"I was allowed to come here by Modus because of a loophole, but I can't be here for long, so let me hear it. How do we move from here?"

….

The pair talked for quite a few hours until their conversation was finished. Will led Ezra down to the exit which is where they parted.

With a serious eye, Will said "I would have loved to walk you halfway but honestly speaking I am too lazy right now.

Ezra laughed like a drunk old man then patted Will on the shoulder. "It's ok you would only slow me down anyway." Will laughed and nodded at the same time and then said "Goodbye old friend, next time you come please bring me fried chicken."

Ezra laughed and started walking out but then he had a sudden realization and slapped his own face. He turned around and said, "Oh yeah, the message from Genesis."

Will crossed his arm in antic.i.p.ation, "Okay what's it about?"

With a lazy expression, Ezra said, "If you prove yourself to me within a month that you are as capable as people say you are then I will fall under your banner when its time for the planetary war. As soon as you prove yourself I will protect you under my name for a few months as you gain power. What say you?"

Will was wide opened for a few seconds, then replied almost by reflex, "f.u.c.k off. What say you? This is the 21st century, my guy. I don't need your protection. I don't need you under my banner either because I fly solo. I have a better plan, ima tell you when I think you are as worthy as people say you are. Deliver that to Genesis for me."

Ezra was surprised for second and laughed uproariously. "You are still the same piece of s.h.i.+t from 5 years ago. Hilarious. Anyway, peace out kid."

Ezra walked out, and on his way, he started to sing horrendously. Will frowned and ran away as soon as possible. Ezra had sung this for as long as Will could remember in-game, suffice to say it was very annoying and brought back bittersweet memories.

The young man then went to another lobby, which had a ton of questions for him. Will had to answer a few of them, otherwise, they won't get off his back
