Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 1680 First Meeting of Crown!

”The Crown?” Jonathan repeated thoughtfully.

Max nodded lightly.

”That is the name of this organization.”

His voice remained calm, yet the atmosphere inside the hall gradually became more serious afterward.

Then Max gestured toward Isabella standing nearby.

”This is Isabella,” he introduced calmly. ”She currently handles many matters related to the secret domain itself.”

The moment Jonathan and Julie looked toward her, Isabella calmly nodded toward the two of them.

”It is good to finally meet both of you properly,” Isabella said with a faint smile.

Jonathan also nodded politely afterward.

Likewise, Julie greeted Isabella calmly as well.

After the brief introductions were finished, the atmosphere inside the hall quickly became much more serious.

Max did not waste unnecessary time afterward.

He directly walked toward the large table at the center of the hall before speaking calmly.

”Now that everyone is here,” Max said slowly, ”it is time to discuss the true purpose behind the Crown.”

The moment those words were spoken, the expressions of Jonathan and Julie gradually became solemn once again.

Meanwhile, Maxʼs gaze slowly swept across everyone present.

Then he continued quietly.

”The purpose of this organization is simple.”

A faint coldness gradually appeared within his eyes afterward.

”The Crown exists to stand against the Elf Race.”

Silence instantly filled the meeting hall.

Neither Jonathan nor Julie spoke immediately after hearing those words again.

After all, even now, the idea of directly opposing the Elf Race still sounded unbelievable.

However, unlike earlier, neither of them questioned Max anymore.

Meanwhile, Max himself did not explain further. He did not mention why he possessed hostility toward the elves. He did not explain what kind of connection existed between him and the Elf Race.

Nor did he reveal the true depth of the hatred hidden within his heart.

Those matters remained buried completely within him for now.

Instead, Max simply continued calmly.

”The Crown will continue growing stronger quietly from the shadows. We will gather resources, we will grow in number and once....”

A faintly terrifying pressure unconsciously spread from Maxʼs body.

”We are strong enough, we will declare war on the Elf Race.”

Max looked toward the three of them calmly before continuing further.

”Even though the eventual enemy of the Crown is the Elf Race, none of you need to worry too much about that right now because I have no intention of provoking them recklessly while we are still weak. The current Crown does not even possess the qualifications to stand openly before a race like the elves yet, and I would never drag all of you into a meaningless death. Until we possess enough strength, everything we do will remain hidden in the shadows.”

The atmosphere inside the meeting hall gradually became more serious afterward.

”We will quietly continue building our foundations,” Max continued while his gaze swept across everyone present. ”We will gather resources, connections, influence, and talented people while expanding slowly from the shadows. I will only move against the Elf Race once I am absolutely certain that we possess enough strength to face them directly.”

Jonathan and Julie silently nodded after hearing those words.

Then Max leaned slightly against the table before continuing calmly.

”For now, the most important thing for the Crown is growth. If possible, I want all of you to quietly recommend this organization to people you genuinely trust. However, do not recruit random geniuses carelessly. I only want talented people who are capable of keeping secrets and who would never betray us.”

Jonathan slowly folded his arms while thinking deeply for several moments.

”That should not be impossible,” he said thoughtfully. ”I still know several people I trust completely. However, we will need to be extremely cautious because one wrong person could expose everything before the Crown is ready.”

Julie also nodded lightly afterward.

”I know a few suitable people as well,” she said calmly. ”Most of them already possess dissatisfaction toward the current balance of power within the Divine Realm, so convincing them might not be too difficult. Still, I agree that secrecy must remain our highest priority for now.”

A faint smile slowly appeared across Maxʼs face after hearing their responses.

”Good,” he replied calmly. ”Then from today onward, all of you should begin quietly laying the foundation for the Crown. We may only have a few members right now, but one day this organization will become powerful enough that even the major forces of the Divine Realm cannot ignore us.”

Max continued discussing several additional matters with them after that.

The four of them talked about how future communication inside the Crown would work, how carefully they needed to handle recruitment, and how they should avoid drawing unnecessary attention toward themselves before the Cosmic Ascension Conference began.

The atmosphere inside the meeting hall gradually became much more relaxed compared to earlier.

Eventually, after nearly everything that needed to be discussed had already been settled, the first official meeting of the Crown finally came to an end.

Jonathan and Julie soon prepared to leave the Dimension of Genesis and return back to the Violet Star Palace before anyone noticed their absence for too long.

However, just as the two of them were about to leave the meeting hall, Max suddenly spoke once again.

”One more thing.”

Jonathan and Julie both stopped before turning back toward him curiously.

Max calmly looked toward the dimensional passage runes engraved upon their hands before speaking.

”You are free to enter the Dimension of Genesis whenever you want,” he said calmly. ”There are no restrictions placed upon either of you.”

The moment those words entered their ears, both Jonathan and Julie looked slightly surprised.

Meanwhile, Max continued explaining further.

”This place is now the headquarters of the Crown, but it is also a safe place for all members of the organization. Whether you need a place to hide, cultivate peacefully, or discuss important matters privately, you may freely come here anytime.”

A faint smile appeared across his face afterward.

”You do not need my permission every single time.”

Jonathan slowly looked around the meeting hall once more after hearing that.

Even now, he still found the existence of this secret independent dimension unbelievable.

A hidden world completely isolated from the outside.

The value of something like this was immeasurable.

Meanwhile, Julie lightly touched the dimensional rune on her palm while speaking softly.

”This really is an incredible place.”

Max simply smiled faintly afterward.

”In the future,” he replied calmly, ”the Crown will continue growing here.”

Jonathan eventually nodded seriously afterward.

”Understood,” he said calmly. ”We will make good use of it.”

Julie also nodded lightly before the two of them finally activated the dimensional passage runes on their palms.

Soon afterward, dimensional portals silently opened before them.

The next moment, Jonathan and Julie stepped through the portals and disappeared from the meeting hall completely, leaving only Max and Isabella behind inside the Dimension of Genesis once again.
