Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 1681 A Peaceful Dinner

After Jonathan and Julie left the Dimension of Genesis, the meeting hall gradually became quiet once again.

Only Max and Isabella remained there now.

The faint silver lights illuminating the hall reflected softly across the large circular table while the surrounding dimensional patterns continued glowing quietly in the background.

For a while, the two of them continued discussing several remaining matters related to the Crown.

They spoke about possible future recruits, how the organization should remain hidden during its early stages, and how the Dimension of Genesis would gradually need to expand if the number of members continued increasing later.

Isabella also briefly reported several things she had already arranged inside the secret domain, including the construction of temporary living areas and additional meeting spaces for future use.

Max listened carefully to everything before eventually nodding in satisfaction.

"You handled things very well," he said calmly.

A faint smile appeared across Isabella's face afterward.

"Someone has to manage things properly while you keep disappearing everywhere," she replied lightly.

Max chuckled softly after hearing that.

Eventually, after discussing a few more matters, Max slowly stood up from his seat.

"That should be enough for tonight," he said calmly afterward.

Then his gaze shifted toward Isabella.

"You should go rest as well."

Isabella nodded lightly after hearing that.

Clearly, even she had spent most of the day busy handling various matters both inside and outside the Dimension of Genesis.

Soon afterward, she also stood up from her seat.

"Alright," Isabella replied calmly. "Then I will leave the remaining matters to you."

Max nodded lightly in response.

The next moment, Isabella activated the dimensional rune on her hand before calmly leaving the meeting hall as well, leaving Max alone inside the quiet headquarters of the Crown.

"Mother… Father…"

Max quietly muttered those words to himself after Isabella left the meeting hall as well.

The calm expression on his face gradually became heavier afterward while countless thoughts silently surfaced within his mind.

Now that the Crown had finally begun taking shape and more people were slowly gathering around him, Max could already feel himself gradually moving closer toward the path he truly wanted to walk.

A path toward strength.

Toward revenge.

And toward eventually finding the truth behind everything connected to his parents.

"It will not be much longer before I come for the two of you," Max whispered softly.

After remaining silent for several moments longer, Max finally turned around and quietly left the meeting hall as well.

Soon afterward, he returned toward the living area inside the Dimension of Genesis where Alice and Lenavira had been waiting earlier.

The moment Max arrived there, he immediately smelled the fragrance of food filling the surroundings.

Warm spiritual lights illuminated the small dining area softly while several dishes filled with spirit beast meat, spiritual vegetables, and fragrant soup had already been prepared neatly across the table.

Meanwhile, Alice immediately noticed him approaching.

"You finally came back," she said while looking at him suspiciously. "At this point I was starting to think you forgot about dinner entirely."

Max chuckled lightly afterward before taking a seat nearby.

"I told you earlier that I would return," he replied calmly.

Lenavira smiled gently from the side while placing another dish onto the table.

"At least you still remembered in the end," she said softly.

The atmosphere around the table gradually became warm and peaceful afterward.

Unlike the tense discussions inside the meeting hall earlier, the dinner felt completely relaxing.

Alice continuously talked about random things while complaining occasionally about how boring staying inside the Dimension of Genesis could become sometimes.

Meanwhile, Lenavira quietly listened most of the time while occasionally smiling at Alice's endless chatter.

As for Max—

He simply enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere silently.

For a brief period, he no longer needed to think about the Sword God Palace, the Crown, the Cosmic Ascension Conference, or the countless dangers waiting for him outside.

Instead, he simply ate dinner together with them quietly like an ordinary person.

Eventually, after the dinner finally ended and some more casual conversation passed between them, Max slowly stood up from his seat.

"I should leave now," he said calmly afterward.

Alice immediately looked slightly dissatisfied again.

"You are leaving already?" she asked.

Max nodded lightly.

"I need to prepare for the Cosmic Ascension Conference."

Lenavira smiled softly afterward.

"Then be careful."

Max nodded once more before lightly patting Alice's head again.

"I will return soon."

Soon afterward, Max activated the Dimensional Sovereign Body once again.

A dimensional portal silently opened before him.

Then, after one final glance toward Alice and Lenavira, Max stepped through the portal and quietly left the Dimension of Genesis.

The next moment, Max appeared once again inside the training chamber connected to the room assigned to him within the mansion where the Black Dragon Clan members were staying temporarily.

The quiet chamber was illuminated softly by spiritual lamps placed around the walls while dense spiritual energy naturally flowed throughout the room.

After returning from the Dimension of Genesis, the atmosphere around Max gradually became much calmer.

He slowly walked toward the center of the training chamber before sitting down cross-legged quietly.

At the same time, countless thoughts surfaced within his mind once again.

"Tomorrow morning…" Max muttered softly to himself, "we will finally leave the Violet Star Palace and return to the Verdant Sky Star Realm."

A faint thoughtful expression appeared across his face afterward.

This trip to the Violet Star Palace had brought him enormous gains far beyond his expectations.

Not only had his cultivation and strength improved tremendously, he had also obtained the Saint Origin Sword Art, unlocked the Dimension of Soul, recruited the first true members of the Crown, and gained countless treasures from the Tower of Treasure.

Most importantly—

He had finally begun laying the foundations for his future plans.

However, despite all those gains, Max knew very clearly that his current strength was still far from enough.

The Cosmic Ascension Conference was only three months away.

And compared to the monstrous geniuses who would gather there from throughout the Divine Realm, his current cultivation was still too weak.

Because of that, Max no longer intended to waste any remaining time.

A sharp light gradually appeared within his eyes afterward.

"Since there are still several hours remaining before dawn," Max muttered quietly, "I might as well use this opportunity properly."

The enormous amount of treasures and resources obtained from the Smelting Trial still remained inside his storage ring untouched.

Originally, Max had delayed using them because he focused entirely upon comprehending the Saint Origin Sword Art first.

But now—

It was finally time.

A faint draconic aura slowly began rising around Max's body while dense Divine Essence fluctuations spread throughout the training chamber.

"I should finally be able to reach the tenth level of the Law Awakening Realm tonight," Max said softly.

The moment those words fell, Max immediately took out large quantities of cultivation resources from his storage ring.

Divine crystals.

Divine stones.

Ancient medicinal herbs.

Rare spiritual fruits.

Numerous treasures rapidly appeared around him one after another, filling the entire training chamber with astonishing spiritual fluctuations.
