Chapter 251 250: Use Of The Universal Brand

As for Corey, deep in his eyes was a strange glint. Though, his expression remained the same.

'A level 6 Universal Brand.'

Corey's eyes glinted with a tinge of curiousity, apprehension, and subtle relief.

There were lots of information on the status screen of every individual that had come into contact with the universal system.

One of them was the Universal Brand.

The Universal Brand was known to have seven colors, which were correspondent to seven levels.

Red for level one.

Orange for level two.

Yellow for level three.

Green for level four.

Blue for level five.

Indigo for level six.

And Violet for level seven.

The Universal Brand was one of the most mysterious information that was on the status screen. The Universal Brand was something that made every individual to be directly connected with the Universal System, and the higher the level of the brand, the closer the person gets to the Universal System.

There were instances where one would not be able to access certain information because the level of their Universal Brand was too low to access such information.

Information was not the only thing one would gain access to the higher their brand.

Power

Authority

The higher ones brand, the more authority and power was granted to them. The Universal System placed more attention on individuals with high brand levels, and there was a rumor that those with extremely high brand levels could communicate with the Universal System.

Corey did not know if communicating with the Universal System was possible. He had read all of these in one of the books he recorded from the library in the outer area of the city of sin.

The author of the book wrote extensively on the Universal Brand. He wrote down proven facts, theories, his own thoughts and theories.

One of the proven facts the author wrote down was that if a person's brand level was high enough, they could request for a person's stats and personal information from the Universal System.

Though, it seemed the person would have to pay a huge price, depending on the value of the information.

When Corey read this, he was shocked to the core because he realized that if a person with a high enough brand level was curious about him, that person could look for his information using the Universal System.

After realizing this, Corey came to three conclusions:

One, he removed the Universal from his body. Something which was impossible considering his pitiful strength and knowledge.

He could ask Nina to remove the brand for him, but he was hundred percent sure she would reject his request.

She had stated before that she would not help Corey with a lot of things. Even if his life was threatened, and he was about to die, she would not help him. She would leave him to die.

As for why she helped him in the treasury, it was due to her curiousity on the finger he took from the corpse.

The second conclusion Corey came to was that he would have to increase his brand level at a rapid pace. But, asides from when he got his talent- Omniscience, and when he tiered up, his brand level had never increased.

According to the author of the book on Universal Brands, the level of a Universal Brand could only increase when the tier of a person increases, or in rare cases, when an individual does something that affects the entire universe positively.

Corey did not know any other way to increase his brand level, so that idea was basically scrapped.

His third conclusion was that he found a power that could negate the abilities of the Universal Brand, but finding a power like that was definitely going to be a difficult endeavor.

When Corey realized that he could do nothing to do the Universal Brand, he always kept it at the back of his mind that an extremely powerful individual could get his information with ease.

Corey looked at the manager who was looking at Divine with a light, and 'harmless' smile.

"I have secrets that are placed in my inventory."

Divine gritted his teeth as he spoke, and the manager cocked her head to the side.

"And you think I care?"

"Open your inventory to me willingly, or I open it with force and then I kill you regardless of the result."

Divine's expression turned cold, and with a snort he clenched his fist, then he opened it a few seconds later.

A palm sized cube appeared on Divine's left hand. Corey looked at it, and he noticed countless miniature sized objects in the cube.

Nobody told him, but Corey knew that the cube was Divine's inventory, and the miniature sized objects were Divine's posessions.

'So one can summon their inventory?'

Corey raised his brows in surprise.

Divine handed the cube to Calista, and when Calista held it, she closed her eyes.

Five seconds passed, and although five seconds was not long, it felt like an eternity to Corey.

Who knew what the manager might find in Divine's inventory?

What if she found something that would implicate them or rouse the greed in the heart of the manager.

A lot of things could go wrong, and Corey was a little bit anxious.

He didn't have the capability to survive an attack from a tier 6.

He glanced at Divine, and although he saw him having a dark expression, there was not an ounce of fear in his eyes or expression.

A second later, the manager opened her eyes, and she stared at Divine.

"You truly have a lot of interesting things."

The manager said, and she threw Divine's inventory at him.

"We'll need to schedule a meeting between us in the nearest future."

Divine's lips twitched as he caught his inventory. He returned it back into his body, and with a snort, he spoke:

"I told you I'm not responsible for what has happened."

"Although I'm a thief and a greedy fellow, I don't have a death wish by intruding into your office in that manner or in any manner at all."

The manager said nothing, and with eyes that contained disdain and indifference, she turned towards Corey.

She didn't say a word, deeming it beneath her to speak to a tier 1 ant like Corey.

If not because he was associated with the enigmatic Divine, she wouldn't have even glanced at him.

Corey was not offended by the lack of disrespect the manager showed him.

Who was he, and what had he done to deserve her respect and recognition?

He was still weak, and he knew that people with immense power like the manager would not even bother to glance at an ant like him.

For now at least.

He closed his eyes, and a few seconds later, a familiar cube appeared in his hand. The only difference was that the number of objects in the cube was way smaller than that of Divine's.

During the period when the manager had her eyes closed, Corey had tried to summon his inventory, and although he was not familiar with it, he still got it since it was fairly easy.

He just had to will for it to appear in his hands.

He gave his cube to the manager, and the manager only held the cube for a second before frowning.

She looked at Corey for a second, then she threw the cube back at Corey.

"Leave."

She said coldly, and without hesitation, Divine grabbed Corey and flew away.

The instant the duo left the Emporium, Divine's voice echoed in his mind.

[Good job.]

Corey glanced at Divine, then he nodded with calm and indifferent eyes.

The expression of fear and anxiety was nowhere to be seen again.
