Wilbur then hurled the blood clot into the Dragonâs Altar. A surge of aura arose, and the blood clot turned into grace points at
once
Wilbur smiled at the sight of the three hundred new grace points in the golden hourglass.
He traded this for a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a Strongwill Pill There were not many grace points left after that.
Wilbur sighed. There were so many treasures, but grace points were so hard to come by. Every time he had any to add he felt like what he got in return was always so little.
He let out a selfâdeprecating laugh at this.
If the contributions to the altar were so easy to come by and the grace points could be exchanged that easily, Wilbur would be ruling the world in no time. Good things never come easy.
Exiting the demiplane, Wilbur collected his thoughts and went to bed. He had something big to do the next day.
The next morning, Wilbur got ready and came out of his room to see Charles waiting for him.
âIs something the matter?â Wilbur asked. Charles was just the head of management here and was usually at the front desk. He hardly ever came to Wilbur for anything else.
Charles said at once, âApologies, sir. A few people tried entering the place by force just now. I didnât physically stop them so I wouldnât cause you any trouble. What would you like to do with them?
âWho are these people?â
âI donât know, I asked them, and they told me they donât know you either.â
âWhy would they want to come inside?â
âThey said this was public property and insisted on coming in to have some fun. I told them the place was privately owned now, but they refused to listen.â
Wilbur pondered briefly. âIf thatâs the case, tell them nicely to leave at once. Itâs not appropriate for them to be here.â
Wilbur did not really think that a few tourists would be a big deal.
It was just that there were all kinds of people who were now living on the island.
If any of these intruders were to run into people like Elsa and try to act tough, they were going to have a hard time.
Charles nodded and turned to leave.
Wilbur went to his office after that. Of course, Ryder was already there.
Wilbur asked, âWhat are you busy with? Youâre on that computer all the time.â
âWaiting for an order.â Ryderâs face was devoid of emotion.
Wilbur was speechless. âIâve got an order for you right now.â
âPlease go ahead, Deacon Penn.â Ryder got to his feet with a bow.
Wilbur put on an air of authority. âIâve found a location suspected to be the Skull Cultâs headquarters, and Iâm ordering you to go check out the place with me.â
âOf course!â Ryder called out in response, lifting up his briefcase at once.
Wilbur chuckled, walking out with Hyder.
Just as they reached the square, they ran into Charles having a roaring argument with three men and two women.
The group was surrounding Charles, shoving him around. It looked like they might even get violent.
Wilbur frowned. âWhatâs happening here?â
Charles hurried up to Wilbur at once. âSir, theyâre not listening to me and refusing to leave no matter what.â
Wilbur observed the party of five.
2/2
The three men and two women looked to be in their twenties. They were dressed head to toe in designer clothing, clear they came from affluent backgrounds.
and it was
Wilbur frowned. âGuys, this place is private property. Iâm afraid you canât be here.â
âLike hell it is! I was just here last month, and it was open to the public. I even stayed here for two nights, do you think Iâm an idiot?â
One of the men with ash gray hair shouted in protest at once.
Wilburâs expression darkened. âWatch your tone, or Iâll kick you
out.â
âOho!â Another shortâhaired man said in a mocking tone. âDo you know who youâre talking to? Are you trying to get yourself kicked out of Seechertown, talking to him like that?â
