A shocking development bloomed as faster than what the eyes of even the 5 Legions of Adjudicator Legions could follow, the visage of this newly joining being flashed towards Katelyn the moment his eyes landed on her- his gaze filled with greed and excitement as if he was looking at an insatiable meal!

His body pulsed with illusory golden Halos of Ascendancy and even a shimmering black halo as he used their multiplicative authority passively, arcs of Aether chains that caused the surrounding space to tremble coiling in his arms as they would seemingly act like chains to capture the silver white haired beauty aboard the Purple Endeavor.

Most beings couldn't react to the shocking speed of this terrifying existence as it was too abrupt, where even though Brightborn saw his movements, he could only develop an angered expression as this being already came inches away from Katelyn!

Those in the surroundings couldn't even react, but Noah's visage was watching everything as if it was playing out in slow motion before his eyes as waves of destiny swirled around him…actually telling him that he had no need to even make a move as an astounding scene played out.

Towards this terrifying existence that Brightborn had invited suddenly rushing towards her- Katelyn's eyes held no trace of shock or surprise.

Her calm smile was only wiped away as her glazed mirror like eyes faced this being with terrifying apathy!

BZZZT!

Her hands didn't even move as around her body, the silent authority of a black Ascendancy Halo flashed as the few inches difference between her and the coiling arcs of Aether from the hands of this monstrous genius from the Olden…an indestructible mirror bloomed.

BOOOM!

The tendrils of aether smashed onto it as no force was directed outwards, seemingly absorbed entirely by the pristine mirror as an instant later- it shot everything out with even more ferocity against the attacking being as his figure was instantly flung away from the Purple Endeavor and onto the storms of Aether outside the TABOO Vessel!

WAA!

"XIAN!"

Only now did the thundering voice of Brightborn arrive as he looked utterly furious, staring towards the arcs of Aether storms where the monstrous being he called Xian had stopped and was still only focused on Katelyn with his eyes still releasing vibrant rays of excitement.

"You…" His voice was deep and heavy as he looked like an Emperor bathed in flourishing Aether, a gaze of yearning clearly prevalent when he gazed at his target

"....you've got such a thing around you and you haven't eaten it up yet?!"

…!

"XIAN!"

BOOM!

Brightborn became utterly furious at these words as his aura rose.

"We made a contract…behave!"

HOOONG!

The billowing might of a LEGEND gushed down as the eyes of Xian continued to release vibrant light while gazing at Katelyn as if she was a prized food he had to claim!

The might of a LEGEND wrapped around him entirely as he didn't move, Brightborn moving to utterly isolate this being as he sent a mental message while still keeping a furious face.

'I didn't think you would be able to see anything about her…but keep your fucking calm if you want to keep our bargain.'

…!

The eyes of the LEGEND flashed as aboard the Purple Endeavor, the 5 Adjudicator Legions had mobilized and come to surround Katelyn and the others as they looked dangerously towards the man bathed in Aether.

Brightborn's angry face calmly settled after his words caused Xian to not make any more moves, turning towards Katelyn as he sighed apologetically.

"I apologize for this, Katelyn. This is an old contact that I have an agreement with for the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum, I didn't think he would act this way."

A genuine LEGEND shockingly spoke out words of apology on behalf of the existence known as Xian.

Katelyn looked at this with sharp eyes that held a trace of anger, gazing towards the defiant Xian surrounded by arcs of Aether as she spoke lightly.

"He cannot keep traveling with us."

Her words were filled with a commanding might as the hearts of the Ninth Firmament Adjudicators trembled beside her, yet Brightborn's face was unphased as he only became calm and moved his hands- a maddening silver light moving to cover the figure of Xian and then shooting it down the purple gold stairway leading to the lower decks of the Purple Endeavor as he spoke in a tone that wouldn't be defied!

"I'll make sure he remains in the lowest deck as we cannot lose any of our forces before even entering the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum…and I'll make sure that something like this doesn't happen again."

…!

The LEGEND spoke in an undeniable tone as when Katelyn heard these words and saw his actions of placing this being that had just attacked her and insultingly talked about her like an object into the depths of the vessel they were on…a light of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

The visage of Brightborn returned to the helm of the Purple Endeavor that began to move again, this incident being wiped like this as those aboard the vessel looked at each other with complex emotions before scattering to their old positions!

The harmonious conversations didn't continue as with her smile fading, Katelyn gazed towards Brightborn that had gone back to operate the Vessel in another direction as she shook her head and walked towards the purple gold stairway, going into the pristine deck below as she entered one of the unique spatial rooms and closed the Runic engraved door behind her!

She didn't seem to fear the contained existence in the lowest deck at all as even when he moved in surprise, she had rebuffed him effortlessly.

But when she left, Noah breathed out as this event told him many things- and Lavalliere saw even more!

<From the little I've seen, she can probably trounce even existences that have exceeded their Limits in two Aspects of Existence.>

…!

A small incident aboard the TABOO Vessel that would soon make its way into the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum occurred as it provided abundant information on many things, and all of this was caused by a single 'Guest' that Brightborn had picked up.

There would be more than one of such Guests as it wasn't just Brightborn doing this- but all of the LEGENDS of the respective Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Bloodlines tasked with bringing geniuses of their Domains towards the Unexplored Grotto Sanctum and even lone Primordial LEGENDS who wanted to send their own powerful tools into this Sanctum to obtain this were doing the same!

Just like how Brightborn had approached Genevieve and Noah and told them to bring him back Grotto Nacres and other treasures in exchange for a myriad of things- such contracts and agreements were being formed between many LEGENDS and genius existences in the Firmaments of Ascendancy as many beings could feel that boundless fortune was contained in this domain of space that even LEGENDS weren't allowed in.

The weaving of fate and destiny moved intricately as many beings moved, Noah finishing his preparations in the Cosmic Holy Land as he was approaching a major undeniable milestone soon!
