The Author's POV

Chapter 489

[What do you think about the comments in the press conference? Will, there really be a third cataclysm?]

[I say that this is hearsay. All bullshit fabricated in order to shift our attention away from his crimes.]

[Then how would you explain the current phenomenon that just happened? The crack in the sky? It is undeniably there. We can't just turn a blind eye to it. Furthermore, there is evidence that proves that Ren Dover has really traveled to the other domains...]

Click—!

Turning off my phone, I put it away and continued to walk on the sidewalk of the street. I was currently outside of my house and the blazing sun in the sky made me feel extremely languid; I really didn't feel like doing anything.

Despite that, I still continued walking.

My current destination was the Demon Hunter guild. The reason for this was because Amanda granted me access to their top-end training facilities.

As matters currently stand, I couldn't go back to the Lock.

With everything that transpired over the last couple of days, I was put on administrative leave for a couple of days; Therefore, I had no choice but to go train at Amanda's guild.

Along the way, I couldn't help but think, 'I really should tell Smallsnake to invest more money in the headquarters...'

Just before the press conference, Amanda came to talk to me about the situation with the magic cards, and from the look of it, they will be launching in a couple of days' time.

With the money that would be coming in from their sales, I planned on creating my own state-of-the-art training facility back in the headquarters.

Not just for me, but for Smallsnake and the others.

"I think it's bullshit. Even if the mana density of the world increased, it will still be impossible for normal people like us to reach the top."

"Does that really matter? If the third cataclysm is coming, would you be better off at your current strength, or at a stronger level?"

"That's a big if."

"Still doesn't hurt to become stronger."

As I neared the guild, I was able to overhear the conversation of some of the people near me. Overhearing their conversations, I shook my head.

'Just as I expected, everyone is talking about the press conference.'

Public opinion about what I said at the press conference was divided into two.

On one side, many people supported what I said as they also agreed with many of my points, while on the other side, people completely despised me for it.

Not that I cared.

Like I've said before, I didn't really care about anyone else apart from a select few people. I was only one person after all.

"Halt! Because of security reasons, we can't allow anyone unknown to enter the guild. Please state your purpose."

Tall guards wearing black suits and sunglasses blocked my path right at the entrance of the guild.

Glancing toward my right and left, and seeing people going in and out of the building, I could already tell that they were targeting me. Evidently, they were alarmed by my strength.

Shaking my head, I brought out a black card from my dimensional space.

"Here you go."

'Did Amanda buff up the security because of the magic cards?'

If so, it was understandable. Given just how much money was involved in its launch, such measures were understandable.

Lifting his glasses up with one of his fingers, one of the bodyguards checked my card. Upon making sure that there was nothing wrong with it, he took a step to the side. The guard next to him followed suit.

"You may go in."

"Thank you."
