Progress towards the Goal

As soon as the two Rank 3 Transcendents saw the newcomer, their expressions both fell.

Although the red-skinned Transcendent was already quite subservient and willing to assimilate the Earth Energy, he's still probably thinking that he only needed to bide his time to get back to his peak before escaping this world or even better, conquer it for himself.

He probably believed me when I told him that he could restore his original strength in less than 20 years.

That time was only like a few days or months for him. For all I know, he's probably already more than 200 years old at this point.

Being subdued by those sufficiently weaker than him… it was enough to plant a grievance inside him.

No matter which world, almost everyone was the same after all. It's easy to guess what's going on in their mind.
