In the void, Zhao Guang sat in his own position, surrounded by a multitude of shadows.
Indeed, this is the Silver Tower, a place designed for remote meetings. In the eyes of others, Zhao Guang himself was also a silhouette; everyone's real presence was not in this place.
Using his status as Honorary Tower Master, Zhao Guang convened a full assembly.
With the addition of his strength boost, everyone reached this location. It's worth noting that Zhao Guang was meeting quite a few of these people for the first time; the Silver Tower truly had many Legendary Strongmen.
It's a pity, if not for the fact that he hadn't reached Demigod himself, the situation wouldn't be as weak.
The Silver Tower, renowned for its in-depth research in Space Magic, is the strongest among all Mage Organizations in terms of survival skills, which allows its members to persevere longer and naturally become stronger over time.
At this moment, gathered here are over sixty Legendary Strongmen.
No wonder, despite the formidable strength he initially presented, the Silver Tower seemed not to fully appreciate it.
"Gentlemen, I have now broken through to Demigod, and I intend to announce this in the name of the Silver Tower."
"Are you certain? Once you do this, you will bear the mark of the Silver Tower."
Aligning with a faction makes it considerably harder to join other organizations in the future. Moreover, the Silver Tower doesn't have much research on the Demigod Level, as it doesn't possess any strongmen at this tier.
Unlike the Temple, which not only has many demigods but also is backed by the Divine.
Though the Temple has never birthed a Divine, it is exceptionally strong at the Demigod level.
Records in the Borick Continent show that other organizations have not produced Divines either, so they are all similar in this aspect.
Zhao Guang nodded, "Yes, I've decided. No matter what, I've been a member of the Silver Tower from the very beginning. Reaching this stage, the Silver Tower has greatly aided me; I see no need to leave just because I've become a Demigod."
The others exchanged glances and nodded; they, too, were quite anxious initially.
The reason they pretended to be deaf and mute was that they were afraid Zhao Guang would want to leave. But unexpectedly, after all this time, when they were about to give up, he himself brought up this request.
"In that case, you shall be the Tower Master from now on."
However, Zhao Guang shook his head, "No, you remain the Tower Master. I'm not interested in managing specific affairs, besides, I have my own nation to develop." This was quite normal.
Once other mages reach certain heights, who among them doesn't abandon all secular matters?
It's not that they must give up, but they need to devote more time to self-improvement.
It's rare indeed for someone to build a nation while elevating to the Demigod rank.
"Alright then, as you wish." The others nodded. After all, he was a Demigod; he had already made concessions, and what else could they do? Besides, wasn't this better? They didn't want to forgo their own power either.
At this moment, Zhao Guang spoke again, "There's one more thing."
Everyone turned their gaze towards him as Zhao Guang continued, "I have a retainer, a Demon Mage, who has also broken through to Demigod level. I want her to have a nominal position here." Xi Fei couldn't join another organization.
Wherever he was, Xi Fei would follow, given the existence of their Soul Contract.
Having a nominal spot for her here meant that an organization with two Demigods was something entirely different.
With a Demigod, an organization is already top-notch across the Borick Continent; the Demigod status itself is symbolic. But with two, that's a fundamental shift.
It seems the Silver Tower is truly on the rise, reaching its pinnacle.
Even the Temple would be cautious when facing two powerful Demigods.
The members exchanged glances, and then the Tower Master spoke, "Of course, there's no problem."
Some matters can break the rules; although the Silver Tower's upper echelons are all Space Mages, at the Demigod level, many things can be compromised.
A Demigod Magician, even if they don't know Space Magic, can still learn it, can't they?
They were unaware that Xi Fei knew a bit of Spatial Teleportation magic; if they did, there would be even less issue.
Besides, the Silver Tower didn't consist solely of mages; there were some warriors, albeit not very strong. If they could accept warriors, what's the point in barring a Magician?
Mages study various subjects; while the Silver Tower mainly focuses on Space Magic, that doesn't mean there's nothing else, so Demon Mages can still find some footing.
Thus, registering this Demon Mage has no issue at all; it's a boon.
After discussing some detailed issues, Zhao Guang left. Upon leaving the meeting room and reaching another level, he soon encountered the Tower Master.
This time, the Tower Master didn't hide his appearance and came forth openly.
"Hold on, to celebrate your breakthrough to Demigod, the Silver Tower has a gift for you."
Zhao Guang paused, "A gift? I wonder what it is?" Zhao Guang really didn't care much.
For things useful to a Demigod, the Silver Tower would hardly have anything easily taken out. Even if they did, they'd keep it to themselves, certainly not giving it away, as they might need it someday.
The Tower Master didn't concern himself with Zhao Guang's musings and directly said, "It's space. The only thing our Silver Tower can offer is stable space. I'm prepared to present two spaces as your advancement gift."
Space, now that was a marvelous thing, Zhao Guang felt a surge of joy in his heart.
After all, finding such a thing wasn't easy. Over a long time, he found only one.
That one had been transformed into a place of inheritance by him, with no other space for other tasks.
For a Demigod, these stable spaces may not be that significant, but for a great power, they mean everything. The Tower Master had hit the mark with this gift, indeed a fine offering.
"Thank you very much for this, I'm very satisfied with the gift."
Seeing Zhao Guang's demeanor, the Tower Master was relieved.
In the matters of human interactions, if only one side gives, over time, the bond fades. Especially with a Demigod, such favors must be maintained just as everyone thought.
The Tower Master's presence signified this was the consensus of the Silver Tower's leadership, and everyone agreed.
