Chapter 288 The Station Of The Ritter Star Cluster (Part 1)



Camila which took a moment to process the differences between her rune of sharpening, and the practically flawless one that Eris drew in the talisman for her.

She then looked at the reinforcement divine rune which Aster was using as research, and couldn\'t help but inwardly sigh.

\'To think that what was considered an "amateur\'s mistake" turned out to be the traces of a superior art\'.

You may wonder how can it be that in a place where people\'s lifespan can be counted in the hundreds of thousands, no one has discovered divine runes, the answer is quite simple, because all this time trying to add a patter to the center of a rune was considered a bad practice.

It was a perfect example of the say, "If a lie is told enough times, it becomes the truth", but it wasn\'t like that for no reason, the center of the rune is where the spirit energy used to activate it circulates.

So, at the slightest disturbance in the center, the whole rune will crumple apart, every time rune masters tried to add a pattern to the core of the rune it simply exploded or dispelled, on the other hand adding more to the patterns on the border would increase the level of a rune, it was only normal that people would instead focus on the borders.

Or at least that\'s how it was supposed to be, now that Aster and Camila knew that what made a rune a divine rune was adding a pattern to the core, they both reached the same conclusion.

It was as if someone or something purposedly prevented the rune masters here to know such an important information, as they clearly would not get anywhere by trying.

Eris didn\'t accept Camila to attend to her lessons only because spoke on her behalf, she also wanted to know how was the rune mastering on these "Heavenly Quadrants", which were so different to her native land.

"How do you classify rune masters here?", she asked to Camila.

"By the grade of the formations they can create and the number of patterns they can add to each of their runes, in other words is a combination of grade and complexity", answered Camila.

"For example, a rune master who can create sky grade formations with runes of one pattern, are would be a one-star sky grade rune master, and so on, there are probably other rules but there were no branches of the rune master\'s association in the Rodia star cluster, so I don\'t know them".

Eris nodded, she was considering learning about rune mastering at the sect where they will be going, not because she lacked knowledge, but because after seeing those strange red runes on the chest left behind by the Wolfstein ancestor, she was reminded of that motivation about the unknown which was what inclined her to learn runes back then.

Without noticing the two hours passed, Aster was finishing his failed try to create the regeneration pattern number two hundred something, when he felt the spaceship stopping moving.

And after a couple of seconds Lilia and the other girls appeared in front of them.

"Darling, we reached the Ritter star cluster, unlike the Rodia star cluster this is a merchant centered galaxy with a few mortal transcending cultivators, so it works as one of the links to slightly higher ranked star clusters, do you want to go out to stretch your legs or should we immediately follow those who are taking the space gate to the Veluri star cluster".

"How much time will it take us to reach the Veluri star cluster?", asked Aster.

After a couple of seconds of contemplation Lilia answered.

"It should be about eight hours".

Aster nodded, if that was the case then they could spend some time in the border station, gram something to eat and see the stores maybe, then leave at night and sleep through the whole travel, also it was better for Kana to take a break from being inside the stellar boundary.

He stretched his body and then stood up from his seat.

"Let\'s see what this border station has to offer, you have a group invisible talisman right?".

"Mm", Lilia waved her hand and an invisible veil covered all the presents before she transported them outside of the spaceship.

The first thing Aster noticed was that the gravity in this border station was stronger than the one at Rodia.

"Although all the stations have a dome which works as a barrier, the atmosphere inside is the same as their highest ranked planet, it\'s just a way to show off if you ask me", said Lilia as they walked through the streets of the external area of the station.

Kana curiously looked at the many open stores, unlike the station in which they were before, here there were people all over the place.

Restaurants, materials, weapons, spirit herbs, there was a bit of everything being offered and there were cultivators wearing different kinds of clothes buying and seeing their stuff, it was quite lively.

Aster saw Kana\'s eyes literally sparking and he chuckled and patted her head.

"Once we reach our destination, I will take you to stroll around the city, okay?".

Kana smiled and held onto Aster\'s arm making Alice raise an eyebrow.

\'This little girl is becoming quite daring\', she thought, but then remembering the things she was doing back when she was her age, she shrugged and just kept walking.

The other thing Aster noticed was that the spirit energy here was purer too.

\'So, this is the level the Rodia star cluster will be reaching in the next years\', he thought before using his spirit sense to inspect a four-floor building, which had a waiting line outside.

"That\'s a restaurant, and it seems to be the best one around here".

Mylene took the initiative to leave the area of the invisible talisman to get a table for the group, still she wasn\'t naive enough to simply appear and instead wore a veil which covered the upper part of her face.

\'It sure is annoying to not have some guards to deal with this kind of stuff, but it\'s kind of interesting too\', she thought but didn\'t complain, this was a new experience as she as a princess didn\'t have to move a finger unless she wanted to.

The people in lines saw a tall pink haired woman wearing a veil appear out of thin air and their reaction was actually quite sensitive, they opened a path for Mylene, here in this border station people from many star clusters reunited, the last thing one would want is to offend the wrong person and end up with a sword stabbed in the chest.

At least that was the logical reasoning of those who had to wait in line, which meant they didn\'t have a strong backer to support them.

Behind the veil Mylene\'s eyes glowed, she looked for the strongest cultivator inside the building and found a peak star tribulation aura at the top, which she supposed was the owner of the restaurant, before she directed a tiny spec of her pressure towards that area.

Not even a second later a middle-aged man came out of the restaurant and directly welcomed Mylene with a smile.

"Esteemed senior, it would be an honor for my Delight Grill Palace to serve you, do you need only a table or…".

Before the man could finish Mylene\'s indifferent voice interrupted him.

"A private room, I don\'t like interruptions".

The man humbly nodded and then guided Mylene towards the fourth floor, of course Aster and the girls followed them.

Once they were inside, they went upstairs until reaching a hallway with three doors carefully protected by guards.

The man opened the last of the three doors and moved aside to allow Mylene to enter the room, he respectfully waited until she was sitting at the table to enter the room to take the order.

Then just as he expected other people appeared out of nowhere, which was quite normal, cultivators with a certain status are treated as celebrities, so it\'s normal for them to go incognito, with the sole reason of not being recognized.

In his eyes, he was attending some noble family from another star cluster, what did catch his attention was that instead of being centered around the pink haired lady, all the presents seemed to surround a black-haired youth which was wearing a mask, as if they were the moon and stars orbiting a planet.

Still, it wasn\'t his place to step in, so he limited himself to ho do his job, he handed a menu to each one of them and silently waited to receive the orders, while also recommending some of the specialties of the restaurant.

Aster read the menu and was immediately interested in one of the things at the top of it, among the dishes that were "imported" there was the meat of a spirit beast in the sea of knowledge realm, and as expected it was quite expensive, but it made sense since the stronger cultivators here were at the mortal transcending realm.

"I want the steak of thunder veil", said Aster as he pointed at the best dish of the menu.

The man nearly choked, although he didn\'t spy on their cultivations, how could someone that looked so young be able to digest the meat of a sea of knowledge spirit beast, but before he could bite the bullet and "advise" Aster to try another dish, all the others asked for the same thing, including Kana.

"Deer customers this…".

Aster understood the worries of the owner of the restaurant, but he simply told him that he would not be held responsible for anything, it was easier than to explain how strong was his body or the high cultivation of the girls.

The only exception was Kana, but after being looked by her puppy eyes, Aster couldn\'t bring himself to reject her petition to try just a bit of it, of course Sarina ordered something else for her which would be her main dish.

Once the middle-aged man left, Lilia looked at the price of the dish and softly snorted.

"Once we reach our destination, I will order a banquet with dishes prepared with heavenly transformation materials just for you darling, I bet those two will be charmed to finally meet you~".
