Mirabelle requested to be James' disciple solely because of the Chaos Path. She was a human of the First Universe and one of
the first to ever exist. As she had experienced everything there was, only the unknown, mysterious Chaos could pique her
interest.
"Master, can you tell me more about the Chaos Path?"
Mirabelle looked at James in anticipation. At that moment, her adorable expression was unlike that of a powerful figure.
"Uhm..."
James was at a loss.
"Even if you're now my disciple, I don't know much about you. The sect prohibits me from teaching the Chaos Path easily. Once I
know more about you, I'll teach you the Chaos Path."
James began to dupe her. That was because he did not know what to explain to her. He only cultivated to this step only because
of Yukia's guidance, and he only acquired such strength by absorbing the Macrocosm Core.
Hearing this, Mirabelle was slightly disappointed. However, she did not inquire further. Since James was now her master, she
would have plenty of opportunities to learn in the future.
"Oh, yeah..." Upon being reminded of something, she asked, "Why have you come and visit me?"
"I..."
James was at a loss for words. Surely he could not come clean with her.
Now that Mirabelle had become his disciple, he only needed to reveal his intentions of becoming the Lord of the new universe,
and she would immediately proclaim her support.
He shifted the subject, asking, "Why are you injured? Did you go into the Dark World? Did you meet a powerful Lord in the
depths?"
"Mhm." Mirabelle nodded and said, "I specifically entered the Dark World. There, I encountered a powerful Lord who had only
just emerged. She's called Sienna and possesses terrifying strength. Even with my Eight-Power Macrocosm Power, I'm no
match for her."
Mirabelle briefly explained. She did not say that she ventured into the Dark World to investigate Yukia Dearnaley. Besides, she
was not interested in that at all. Now, she only wanted to know more about the Chaos Path and the sect James was in. She was
curious to know what role James' sect played in the twelve universes.
"Master, what's your master like?" She asked curiously.
James said with a stern look on his face, "That's none of your concern for now. When the time comes, everything will be
revealed."
Mirabelle got the hint and stopped asking questions.
James sat beside her and gently tapped on the table. He looked at Mirabelle and asked, "By the way, what do you think about
the Consolidation Conference just around the corner?"
Mirabelle said, "The consolidation will bring about many benefits to the twelve universes. The Heavenly Path will become
stronger, and this means that the limitations of Heaven and Earth will be broken. By then, living beings will be able to cultivate
more Paths, and the restrictions on the Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God Rank will be lifted. When that comes to pass,
crossing into the Chaos Rank will not be an impossible feat."
James said, "Actually, I was asking about your opinion on the Lord of the new universe."
