From the moment he had received the passive ability [Language comprehension], Dilan had been thinking about something particular.

‘Not only are both the Ligrav and Rasnian race experienced in absorbing Essences, but they can hand out a Tier-1 passive ability like [Language comprehension] to someone they never saw…. Their knowledge about the system, and how to procure ability crystals should be far higher than mine!’

That was why Dilan thought about making a deal, without actively showing that he didn’t know how to procure Ability crystals other than by trading them with Gates, and random fortune encounters.

“How about I and my group provide the Sun temple with sacrifices, and you provide ability crystals, treasures, and other things in return?”

Of course, Dilan didn’t know if the Sun temple usually accepted any kind of corpse as a sacrifice. He was taking a big gamble by demanding ability crystals and treasures in return for some corpses.

However, the Priestess didn’t show much of a reaction at first. She peered deep into his sky-blue eyes and tried to figure out what Dilan was thinking about.

‘Did he notice something about the Sun God’s Divinity? That cannot be…the Fragment still has enough energy to bless us with its Ancient flame…’

The Miniature Sun was not only the Fragment of the Sun God’s Divinity but also a necessity for the Ligrav and Rasnian race to survive the winter.

They lived in extremely hot temperatures on their home planets and rarely faced difficult times with the surrounding temperature when expanding their influence.

However, this time it was different. The Sun temple had emerged when a strong snowstorm was wreaking havoc and showed no signs of calming down.

The Ligrav and Rasnian entered a weakened state the moment the surrounding temperature dipped in the single digits, while they felt powerful and full of vigor as long as it was hot or at least warm.-.

This was something both races had in common, their weakness in cold and their strength while being in a hot environment.

Dilan couldn’t know this normally. However, while walking along with the six hunters when he was being taken to Brashta, Dilan had noticed that the four Ligrav and the two Rasnian felt much stronger when they were closer to the Miniature Sun than they had been outside the town.

What Dilan assumed was that the Miniature Sun and the Sun God’s Divinity provided an effect on the Ligrav and Rasnian race that had enhanced their stats and mentality.

He told himself that the more sacrifices the Miniature Sun received, the stronger the Miniature Sun’s effect would become, or that its range of effect would increase.

That was why he made the deal.

What Dilan missed out on noticing was the fact that the Sun temple’s hunters were not able to hunt too many monsters in the cold, without facing severe issues.

This resulted in the Miniature Sun’s accumulated energy decreasing slowly, resulting in a quite depressive situation.

The Priestess had already thought about sending out the Eternal Guards just to hunt some monsters and procure corpses.

However, this would result in the temple being unguarded for a while, which was not something they could do under any circumstance.

After all, the moment a powerful monster got wind of a God’s Divinity, they wouldn’t hesitate to try devouring it.

Even the slightest damage to the Miniature Sun would make the Sun temple’s branch face annihilation and both the Ligrav and Rasnian race would face severe punishment for disappointing the Sun God Valgard.

That was why Dilan’s deal sounded both too good to be true and suspicious.

After all, he presented a deal when they were already in a dilemma of how to handle the situation ahead.

Was that really a coincidence or was everything Dilan’s masterplan?

Neither the Priestess nor the intellectual Eternal Guards of the Rasnian race were sure about an answer.

But what the Priestess knew was that she had to agree to the offer, because they truly needed help at the moment

‘We might need help but that doesn’t mean anyone is allowed to exploit us! If you desire to take advantage of our situation, I shall use you and your group to get to know the human race in its entirety!!’

The Priestess devised a simple system on how to take advantage of Dilan and his people, which was why she required a few minutes of silence until she began to speak once again.

“We’re willing to make a deal with you and your group. However, we will do it properly and make use of the system to measure the value of each sacrificed monster!

It is possible to measure the value of a sacrificed monster in Sacred points. These sacred points can be exchanged for everything you want, for example, ability crystals, ingredients such as herbs and ores, special-type Essence crystals, and recipes for constructions, devices, and weapons. The Sacred points can even be used to be exchanged with Slaves!”

The Priestess sounded quite calm at first. However, the more she spoke the more Dilan was forced to control his facial expressions.

‘Why is she offering so much? Something is odd…and what?! Slaves?? Why are we suddenly talking about slaves?’

Dilan was more than a little bit confused but he merely smiled when he heard the plan the Priestess had come up with. It was a little bit crazy, in his opinion.

For a short moment, he ignored the comment about slaves, and that the Priestess sounded a little bit too desperate as he made something clear.

“So to put it simply, if I sacrifice a monster’s corpse valued at 2 Sacred points, I will be able to purchase an item of the same value, right?”

The Priestess nodded while acting as if this was only normal.

However, Dilan felt a little bit intrigued.

“May I know how many Sacred points the two Snowwhite Isolation Cheetahs were worth, and how much the [Language comprehension] ability crystal is worth? The value of a Silver Tier-1 Essence crystal interests me as well; both if I sacrifice it to the Divinity of the Sun God Valgard, and if I want to purchase it using Sacred points.”

It was important to ensure that the Priestess wasn’t exploiting them. He didn’t trust her a tiny bit!

Dilan was sure that she wanted to take advantage of him as much as he wanted to take advantage of her. Their common goals were to get to know each other’s intentions, the characteristics of the other’s race, and much more.

The Priestess turned her head to the Miniature Sun to take a look at something.

“Your sacrifices were valued at 7 Sacred points, while a Silver Tier-1 Essence crystal is valued at 15 Sacred points if you want to purchase it, and 5 if you sacrifice it.

As for the [Language comprehension] ability, it is valued at 2500 Sacred points!”

Dilan merely nodded his head before thinking about something.

‘Did that system already exist before? Are the Sun temple’s hunters using the same system to purchase goods? Well, either way… the price is fine. I expected it to be worse!’

Dilan would have to hunt around 700 Bronze Tier-1 Level 10 Monsters to purchase the [Language comprehension] ability on his own. However, that was without sacrificing their Essence crystal.

Thus, only the corpses that didn’t hold much value for Dilan and his people would be sacrificed in exchange for Sacred points.

This was great, to put it simply and Dilan felt his excitement skyrocketing.

[Language comprehension] should also be one of the rarer abilities, meaning that all of his Ascenders should be able to accumulate some Sacred points as long as they worked hard.

‘Yvonne, Kathrine, Williams, and the others will be able to easily earn enough to purchase powerful ability crystals…we just need some time…I don’t know how many sacrifices the Divinity requires but I should make use of it for as long as possible!!’

Dilan hid his sly smile behind a poker face, only to recall something else.

‘But about Slaves…what the hell was that about?!’
