"I failed to expel him from my secret realm by exercising my regal rights as he was too strong, and I didn't want to fight him either. I knew I wouldn't win. And it was not like what he wanted to do was against my ideals or belief. Rather, it was in line with the way I lived my life. He was doing something for the good of every race in the federation, and that's why I took a step back and let him make modifications to my tomb as he wished."

She said those words in a bitter-sweet tone. No matter who, they would feel bad if someone messed up their resting place. She was no different.

However, she had accepted the demand of the man, and that just goes to show that the man was extremely powerful and secretly protecting all the races that made up the federation.

"He's someone so great, but there's nothing about him in the world. Just who is he?"

Vincent felt that Joker was an awe-inspiring existence. He had left a massive trump card for them. The people could use the server here to open spatial portals that would allow the military to teleport warship from one point to another and also use it to communicate over a long distance in case the main server gets damaged and become unusable somehow. He had left behind a life-saving grace for all the races, but nobody knew about him.

"He is the main fighting force against the forces of evil and also the one who led your single world civilization into becoming the great multiple planets civilization it is today. You can say that he is the founder of your federation and also the very reason your human race managed to reach so far even though the universe is full of tribulations that can end civilization."

The Iron Clad Lady knew who he was because the data server in this realm contained many records about him and his historical deeds. All of them were kept hidden from the public for some reason. Since the person was so strong that even the Iron Clad Lady admits that she would lose against him, there was a high chance that he was the one behind keeping his identity a secret.

But why didn't he want others to know about him?

Why didn't he want to be recognized for his hard work?

"Can I know his real name?"

"One day, you might."

"I've made up my mind; I would like to join the resistance."

"Good, give me your hand."

Vincent extended one of his hands towards him. She grabbed it with both her palms. He felt the back of his hand turning hand, and suddenly, she let go.

"It's done."

A mark had appeared on the back of his right hand.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, you have become an informal member of the resistance."

After throwing those words at him with a chuckle, the iron-clad lady's water avatar gave him a gauntlet.

"What's this for?"

"A part of my legacy."

"B-But why? I haven't even done anything yet."

"Just take it."

Vincent was a bit confused, but because she urged him, he still grabbed the gauntlet. It was too big for his arm, meaning it wouldn't fit him. The gauntlet was of a black color, and he found a red gem in the middle of it. A few lines stretched beneath the red gem, taking the shape of a magical symbol. There were two hollows above the red crystal and two below. They were crystal sockets, and a person can imbue elemental gems inside of them to achieve various strengthening and magical effects. Curious about what it was, Vincent didn't hesitate to check it out.

[Black Iron Gauntlet]

[Type: Esoteric Technology]

[Grade: Undetermined]

[Description:- A piece of high-level technology that can convert mana or refined element energy into a frontal blast, shield, or other forms of attack depending on the inscription patterns you inscribe on its five sockets. It has five pockets, and you can imbue each one with a refined magic gem or an elemental gem. When you say the keyword, the gauntlet will convert the energy of the gem and infuse the matrix with said energy to manifest a magic technique.]

[Occupied Gem Socket: One]

[Effect 1: Summoning Red Giant]

[It used one-third of the blood crystal.]

[You can use this effect three times before you deplete the red gem from all its uses.]

[Remaining gem sockets: 4]

He could still inscribe four inscriptions on the gauntlet to give it four more special effects.

It was a rare treasure, one similar to the item used by Varth.

"Isn't this too similar to the battle suit of the crystal race?"

"Humans aren't the first ones to come in contact with them." She said with a small.

Vincent realized what she meant as everything she didn't say was self-explanatory.

Suddenly, her figure started to blur, almost turning imaginary.

"What's happening to you?" Vincent asked, feeling that something was off.

"The remnant of my soul has run out of its time. I guess this will be our last meeting." She said, melancholy in her eyes and a gentle smile on her face. "I will tell Melody to uphold the promise I made to you."

She had died a long time ago, but before breathing her last, she used a unique method to split her soul into two. This was her split soul, also known as soul projection. She created it because she wanted suitable successors to her legacies. After all these years, each of the gifts in her possession, one belonging to her and the rest belonging to her fallen comrades, have finally found their way into the hand of the younger generation. Now, she had no more regrets. She could eventually go away forever.

Vincent didn't know, but he felt sad.

"I hope you rest in peace."

"I hope that you will bring peace to these chaotic times and honor my legacy."

Her avatar exploded into countless water droplets that rained down on Vincent. Maybe he was too lost in thoughts or sad at the fact of seeing the end of an ancient legend that he failed to move out of their way. In the end, he got drenched from head to toe.

[The healing properties of the water had undone the curse of Hell's paradise of madness.]

[All the cut on your body has vanished.]

[The healing property of the holy water has helped you with regrowing your arm.]
