Luna tore a tiny hole through chaotic space with a finger transformed into a claw, ripping into the defenses around the Emperor’s palace on the capital, and then quickly retracted her power.

Her intrusion was instantly noted, and the familiar presence bled out into chaotic space, then locked the nearest three worlds down.

The Emperor looked as if he was ready to kill, until he saw that it was her.

Luna was quickly enveloped in his power, and then dragged into a sitting room inside the palace.

Emmanuel’s first words were a curt, “What?” That was little more than a growl.

“I need somewhere more private.” Luna knew the importance of her news and refused to speak more without greater security.

After The Emperor inspected her for a moment, she was pulled along as they went deeper into the palace.

Once she was inside, she felt that they were in an odd, expanded space that was almost completely cut off from realspace. It was isolated to a degree that she had never encountered before. She could only speculate that it was a Talent from someone else that the Emperor was using, or a special rift reward that the imperial family had gathered.

Either one was just as likely.

“It’s safe here. Speak.”

Luna tossed him a spatial ring and then sent the video of Erwin and Matt’s experiments. The ring held a sample of each rift and its Aura, along with one monster per rift. In a corner of the ring were Erwin’s preliminary hypotheses and theories about the phenomena on an information crystal.

Emmanuel’s face visibly hardened as he reviewed the information.

“Well, fuck me a thousand ways from Monday.”

Luna understood the feeling. It was beneficial information that they couldn’t use for fear of creating waves. The entire Empire’s lower Tier rift setup could be adjusted to allow more people to reach past Tier 15, which would increase their power in a way not seen since bottled Concepts.

Emmanuel paced for half an hour before the ring vanished into one of his own spatial rings that could store more of its kind.

After turning to Luna, he spoke with a tone of finality and command that couldn’t be ignored. “Tell them not to mention it, and to cease all rift creation with his mana. Not until after the war, at least.” Catching her eye, he added, “I want you or Kurt near them at all times. I’ll assign another half-dozen Tier 35s through Mara and Leon. Make it seem like it’s them being themselves.”

The Emperor threw his head back and took a massive breath before holding it. He let it out with a laugh.

“If we make it through the next few millennia, we will change the realm. With enough targeted Aura rifts, we won’t need bottled Concepts, and we’ll be able to make Tier 24s by the billions. Even if their Concepts aren’t perfect, they’ll still be immortal, and we can always have them break their Concepts and reforge them when they figure it out later. The pure number of extra people we’ll be able to create will help tip the balance for large scale engagements.
