”Congratulations, Faceless Ancient, you are now a Personal Member of Dark City.

”Dark Noble Rank Anointed: Dark Baron

”More information about Dark Baron privileges has been sent to your Star ID!”

After Jacob accepted, Dark Roseʼs voice continued to ring, and Dark Marquis and Sofie were shocked when they heard about Jacobʼs special title, his unknown bloodline, and his shocking prowess.

Dark Marquis was especially shocked because Jacob directly acquired the title of Dark Baron, not the Lower Dark Noble, which he was expecting.

Even Jacob was surprised since he was caught off guard by Dark Roseʼs evaluation of his prowess, but he was surprised about the title as well and looked at Dark Marquis for an explanation.

The mirror also stopped shimmering and turned to normal at this point.

”Do you have an honorary badge from life faction and your power…?” She couldnʼt help but ask. This was too shocking, even more than a three-star privilege, especially his prowess.

It shouldnʼt have been possible for Jacob to enter the epic plains if he was above the epic rank, and Jacob wasnʼt even from Unique Plains from the past records she had gathered. If Dark Rose hadnʼt confirmed Jacobʼs ID, she wouldʼve suspected he was an imposter.

Jacob impassively replied, ”I do have an honorary badge. As for my prowess, it is an effect of a special privilege of this badge.”

Jacob knows about the special effect of these honorary badges now, so he made this up to cover up for his abnormal existence. He didnʼt need to explain any further.

Realization dawns upon Dark Marquis and Sofie.

Dark Marquis replied with self-mockery, ”No wonder you were able to clear the epic trial and arenʼt afraid of Zodiac Night Guardian. So thatʼs how it is. If you have told me this before, I donʼt have to embarrass myself.”

She then looked at Sofie, who was now looking at Jacobʼs worship, and said, ”Miss, do you want to join as well? If not, I have to apologize and ask you to leave since you canʼt participate in our next conversation.”

In fact, if not for Jacob, Sofie wasnʼt even qualified to be here; Dark Marquis was just giving Jacob face. But now that Jacob is a personal member, she needs to discuss the matter of Dark City, which includes too much core information, so Sofie needs to leave.

Sofie hesitated as she looked at Jacob for his opinion. She clearly wonʼt do anything without his approval.

Jacob coolly said, ”Do as you please.”

”Then, I would like to join, but Iʼm a core member of Alchemy Guild. Would it be the problem?” asked Sofie hesitantly. She was still an alchemist of the Alchemy Guild, so she didnʼt know what would happen if she tried to join the Dark City as a personal member.

A hint of surprise flashed past Dark Marquisʼs eyes as she replied, ”It is no problem. Once you join the Dark City as a personal member, your membership in the Guild will be revoked on its own. There is no problem, but you canʼt do the same with Dark City. If you agree, then just do as Mr. Ancient and place your hand on the Dark Registration Codex.”

Jacob and Sofie were surprised since they didnʼt expect Dark City to have such power to directly snatch away the three hegemoniesʼ core members without giving them any explanation.

ʼIt seemed the Dark City is even more unfathomable than I expected.ʼ Jacob thought with a sharp look.

Sofie didnʼt hesitate any longer and did as Jacob and quickly accepted the oath, and afterward, the same process happened.

”Personal Member Registration Start!

”Star ID: Crownless Alchemist89

”Star Privilege: 1-Star

”Star Criminal Record: NONE

”Bloodline: Wise Wood Elf

”Power Rank: Tier-7 Epic Rank

”Magic Rank: Epic-Star-8 Rank

”Registration Successful!

”Congratulations, Crownless Alchemist89, you are now a Personal Member of Dark City.

”Dark Noble Rank Anointed: Lower Rank Dark Noble

”More information about Lower Rank Dark Noble privileges has been sent to your Star ID!”

This time, there wasnʼt any surprise for Dark Marquis as she secretly sighed in relief. She took back the Dark Registration Codex and said, ”Congratulations, you both, you are no longer outsiders. You can now buy properties in the inner dark city and even start your business here.”

”I donʼt have time for such a thing. Now, you should start talking since there is no need to hold back.” Jacob stated that he didnʼt have any more reason to stay in the epic plains.

Dark Marquis didnʼt tarry any longer since she wouldnʼt be punished if she said another out of the line anymore.

”First, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Zoe Heartfelt, and Iʼm from Spirit Tree Race of Unique Plains. I was sent here by my family over three hundred years ago to climb up the ranks and become the administrator of the Epic Dark City to prove myself.

”My clan is also in charge of Unique Dark City, and Iʼm one of their successors. If I want to fight the Unique Dark City administrator position, I need to go through many hardships.

”The Dark Duke of the Unique Dark City is also my Grandfather, and heʼs also the one who asked me to get the medallion from you. In return, he offers his protection, so I had to ask again if you want to take the deal. My grandfather has vast influence all over the Unique Plains, and if you take this deal, no one will make things difficult for you.” Dark Marquis or Zoe stated solemnly.

Jacob was surprised since he wasnʼt expecting this twist. But he replied firmly, ”My decision is the same. On the other hand, I want to ask you something: are you really willing to do your grandfatherʼs bidding? I can tell youʼre an ambitious and daring woman, and since you were able to come here for the experience, you also want to rule the Unique Plainsʼ Dark City as well, right?”

Sofie was shocked as she looked at Jacob, for he was too direct.

Dark Marquisʼs eyes narrowed slightly since Jacob didnʼt say anything wrong!
