BXBX NOVEL Chapter 506 Wealth
Nial spent several months in seclusion if one could call it that.
He had been surrounded by hundreds of Dark Elves and Nightshadow Elves while exerting the mana breathing technique to progress faster.
At the same time, Nial spent lots of time refining his body and trying to remove every single imperfection from his body.
Unfortunately, it would still require quite a while before the 10,000 Refinements of Imperfectia would be completed.
But that was fine because he was now at the Peak of the Prometheus rank and he could focus on his body refinement technique.
Producing Runic Armaments as a side gig was also quite helpful as it increased the combat prowess of his people and it earned him a huge fortune when sold for a hefty price outside the Orion Association.
Kaeldur and Tyrant earned him a huge fortune as well. They kept conquering dungeons, though separated as the acting leaders of their own small groups. The group they controlled were Deux-ranked monsters whose minds Nial had altered using Dominion.
The two Devils were doing their best to collect as many Origin crystals, corpses, and other valuable materials as possible. This increased Nial\'s wealth to an extent where he didn\'t even know if there was something he couldn\'t buy inside the human shelters.
He was pretty sure that he was the wealthiest Origin Human by now, and he used this fortune to fund the expansion of his Onyx Association. They worked hard, which resulted in the achievements of the Onyx Association and its name spread throughout the shelters.
It was rare for organizations to spread out from Halheim nowadays. The Halheim shelter was considered the new capital of the human race because it was the biggest shelter, which also boasted a high mana density in and around the shelter.
The wilderness around the Halheim shelter had more and better dungeon portals, which further increased the mana density of the surrounding area.
Compared to the remaining shelters, Halheim could be considered a paradise.
Of course, that didn\'t mean the other shelters were hell. Nial was of the exact opposite opinion because he was pretty sure that the remaining shelters were much more peaceful than Halheim, where everyone was fighting for the bountiful opportunities and the resources they could acquire.
It required conviction and true talent to make it big in Halheim, that was for sure. However, that didn\'t mean it was impossible to become equally powerful if not born with the innate skills or trying to become powerful in the other shelters.
That was something Nial wanted to make use of by funding the Onyx Associations all over the other shelters. It was time for Nial\'s group to make it big everywhere. That way, no origin human could bother him in the future, not even the human government.
Nial didn\'t hear much about the Linaton since he had received the last report. They had been oddly quiet but that played into Nial\'s hands.
After all, he could make use of their silence and spread the healing reagent that had been created by the Shelturion Alchemists. Great Wirliam had kept his word. He had created a healing reagent that would cleanse every single cell in the human body.
The cleansing process was focused on the ingredient that made origin humans addicted to the Cultivation Drug. It wouldn\'t remove additional impurities from within the body nor would it have any other benefits than being free of the drug addiction.
But that was more than enough and it showed Nial that Great Wirliam and his people were quite capable. His opinion of their capabilities improved even further when he got his hands on a Cultivation Pill that had a similar effect to the Cultivation drug.
Yet, it didn\'t have any aftereffects, not for origin humans, at least!
Nial was certainly satisfied with the results the team of Great Wirliam provided and it was more than enough reason for Nial to make more serious plans about business with the revolution army of the Shelturion race.
It was certainly risky to deal with Great Wirliam and his people but the gains they could make outweighed the risks.
That was why Nial and Great Wirliam ended up becoming business partners. Nial got his hands on a large stockpile of Cultivation drug cleansing reagents and the upgraded Cultivation Pill.
Melheim used their newly gained fame and spread the news about the existence of a Cultivation drug cleansing reagent. Everyone got to know about it and the vast majority of mankind made a beeline to purchase it. After all, almost every Original had tried the Cultivation Drug thinking that nothing much would happen.
Unfortunately, they weren\'t anomalies like Nial, who were truly immune to the harmful substance of the cultivation drug.
Thus, many had become addicted over the course of months and were so desperate to grab the last remnants of cultivation drugs circulating in the market that fights broke out every now and then.
Now everything would be over as Nial gifted everyone one cultivation drug cleansing reagent on the condition that they came to take it themself.
Though on one hand, Nial incurred a huge loss for the resources needed to create the cultivation drug cleansing reagent, on the other, his Onyx Association became more famous. He made lots of profits from other sold goods in exchange.
After all, most people, whether awakened or ordinary civilians, felt weird simply accepting a gift after they entered a stranger\'s shop, or their association\'s buildings.
Once the first person donated some Origin crystals in exchange for the Cultivation drug cleansing reagent, everyone started to feel guilty about taking the reagent for free and a chain reaction occurred, increasing Nial\'s finances.
After everyone had gotten their hand on a cultivation drug cleansing reagent, the market for the cultivation drug died down quickly. Many found out about the Cultivation Pill that was sold in the shops, which were affiliated with the Orion Artisan Guild, but only a handful of people purchased them at first.
The terror of the Cultivation Drug was still too deeply imprinted in the mind of the origin humans.
Nial understood their worries which is why he didn\'t force anything. That was simply not necessary because there were a few origin humans who trusted their instincts, or precisely the reputation behind both the Onyx Association and the Orion Artisan Guild.
People trusted both organizations to a certain degree thanks to their past actions. However, they had been oblivious to the glaring truth…that both the Onyx Association and the Orion Artisan Guild were led by the same person.
It was only obvious because the organizations had been created on the very same day, on the piece of land that belonged to the same person and each member of the Onyx Association received Runic Armaments the moment they joined.
It was no secret that the Onyx Association handed over its precious resources to the Orion Artisan Guild, whose profits were used to fund the growth of the association.
All of that was well known but only a few cared enough about other organizations to join the dots and come to a conclusion.
Thus, it was quite a shocker for most civilians and even awakened Originals to find out more about the connections between the two organizations.
Trusting both organizations, a few Originals, whose resistance to harmful substances was quite high, bought and tested the Cultivation Pills.
And the moment they gave their go-ahead, everyone stormed the affiliated shops to purchase as many Cultivation Pills as possible.
As a result, Nial was getting wealthier by the second!
