Chapter 1060
Gravis frowned.He didn't like what he had just heard for several reasons.
First of all, he knew that The Heaven Company paid their personnel according to their power. Gravis obviously had the power toeven overlook fights between level two Star Gods, but he was stuck with Peak Immortal Emperors.
The difference in pay had to be absolutely massive. One person was a Peak Immortal Emperor, of which there was a ridiculousamount, and the other one would overlook the currently most powerful fights in the Star God Realm.
Even more, the personnel able to overlook fights between level two Star Gods were probably all Ancestral Gods, and usingAncestral Gods for a fight of such a level would be a huge waste for The Heaven Company. They were essentially killing a flywith a war hammer.
This meant that the people able to overlook such fights were worth far more. The economy was dictated by supply and demand.The demand for people of such a level wasn't very high, but the supply was many times below even that, essentially makingsuch people incredibly valuable.
The Heaven Company was probably willing to pay an insane amount of money for such people.
Another reason why Gravis didn't like that was the fact that he had been tested against level two Star Gods earlier. If theycouldn't use him against level two Star Gods due to a particular reason, why did they even test him? He had also obviouslypassed the test!
"Why?" Gravis asked. He wanted to hear the reason first.If one didn't pay attention, one wouldn't notice how weird this interaction actually was.
In all the previous worlds Gravis had been to, his question and direct responses would have been seen as incrediblydisrespectful. The person in front of Gravis was akin to a mighty Sect Leader of an outstanding Sect, while Gravis was only amere Peak Immortal Emperor.
However, this world was different from all the previous worlds Gravis had been to.This wasn't a Sect.It was a Company.
Loyalty and respect were not that important in a Company. After all, it was simply an exchange of service for money. Because ofthat, even bosses and employees could talk to each other on the same level.
Gravis wasn't under some threat of eradication because of his direct questions.
It was within his right to refuse employment. That was why there was no asymmetric power dynamic between him and the DivineGod.
"There are two reasons," the young man answered. "First of all, perception is based on Battle-Strength, not on Realm. | presumethat you can probably jump six levels in the Peak Immortal Emperor Realm. If someone were at the Peak Star God Realm buthad only the Laws of a Peak Immortal Emperor, they still wouldn't be able to feel your power. You should have noticed that by
now.
Gravis nodded. Gravis remembered his fight with Eran, the Space Cultivator. Back then, Gravis had jumped five levels for thefirst time. He had been just as powerful as Eran back then.
However, Eran hadn't been able to feel Gravis’ Battle-Strength, which was why he hadn't taken him seriously when they weretalking.
Why?
Because Eran's own Battle-Strength hadn't been powerful enough to evaluate Gravis' Battle-Strength. All his power came fromhis superior Realm.
"Of course, the average Battle-Strength of Cultivators increase the more powerful they become. A Peak Star God that knowsseveral level seven Laws might only be average in their Realm, but if you were to reduce their Realm to the Peak ImmortalEmperor Realm, they would still be able to jump around five levels just because of their Laws."
"An average level one Star God has a Battle-Strength equivalent to a Peak Immortal Emperor that can jump 3.5 levels. TheseStar Gods wouldn't be able to feel your power. It would require a slightly above-average level one Star God to feel your power."
"| know that you have the emblem for exactly this reason, but that isn’t the only problem. The next problem is the perception ofyour Realm and the unbelievability of your power. Even if the level one Star Gods can feel your true power, there would be a highchance that they would think that you are bluffing. After all, such a powerful Peak Immortal Emperor couldn't exist."
"They would assume that the chances of them being inside an illusion would be higher than you actually being that powerful.""This would influence the fight, which we can't allow.""On top of that, there is one last issue, but this one is minor in comparison."
"The Stars of Star Gods can influence the world around them. You should have noticed that several groups of Laws had beensuppressed as soon as the ice crystals have reached the Star God Realm."
Gravis nodded.
"You can still use your Law to protect the surroundings, but the power of the Stars also increases or decreases according to theenvironment. Your Law destroys all other Laws in a given area, which stops the Stars from using that environment to increasetheir power."
"This would influence the fight.”
"These reasons are why | can't let you overlook fights between Star Gods," the young man finished.Silence.
After a while, Gravis sighed. "Okay, that makes sense."
"No worries, you will be paid according to your power, not your tasks. You will earn just as much as level two Star Gods," theyoung man said.
Gravis was taken aback."Why didn't you say that earlier!?" Gravis asked with some annoyance.
Gravis had only cared about his pay, and his pay was the entire reason why he had even seen that as an issue. After all, beingpaid for being a level two Star God while only having to look at Peak Immortal Emperors was actually even better. He wouldhave to work less for the same amount of money.
The young man smirked. "Because it's fun," he said.
SHING!
Suddenly, a purple emblem appeared in the young man's hand, and he frowned as he looked at it."Work calls!"
CRACK! SHING!
The young man broke the purple emblem and was teleported away.
Gravis was a bit surprised.
That was an awkward end to their conversation.
“Eve, would you please show him around?" the old man said to the Instructor.
SHING! SHING!
The old man and the other person teleported away, leaving Gravis alone with the Instructor.
The Instructor tried to smile politely, but she obviously wasn't used to smiling. Her smile looked a bit forced and awkward.“Hello, I'm Eve, and | will be showing you what you have to do," Eve said.
"Thank you, Eve," Gravis said politely. "By the way, what was the young man's position?"
“He's our Chief Investigator," Eve explained.
"Investigator?" Gravis asked. "What do they do?"
"Our job is being performed by livingbeings, and living beings makemistakes occasionally~Eve: O m
e lained, hentGde smile gone asshe explained these things neutrally."Sometimes, we get complaints fromCultivators that a Judge influencedtheir fight. The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
"In order to lodge these complaints,the complainer must put forward ahefty sum as insurance. If thecomplaint was Bre Obewaiid theywl get Weir money back, get anadditional sum of money forreparation, and the responsibleJudge will get their pay cut. If thecomplaint was unjustified, TheHeaven Company would keep theinsurance money." The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
"Investigators are sent to investigate these complaints," Eve explained.
Gravis nodded a couple of times. "| guess Investigators have to be truly powerful to investigate something like that."Eve nodded. "Every Investigator must have comprehended the True Laws of Time and Space."
Gravis took a deep breath.
These were level nine Laws!
Probably only Divine Gods could comprehend these Laws!
Gravis hadn't known about the young man's power before, but now he did.
A Divine God, huh?
A Divine God was one of the true leaders of the world.
Heaven's Magnates only existed in legends, and there were probably not even a hundred in the entire world.
Even the Sect Masters of the mostpowerful Sects in the world were only
Divine Gods. nea Ceaees

Even the most powerful Sects in the world would probably treat an Investigator with immense respect.
"There's still a long way to go,” Eve said. "Even for me, the Divine God Realm is merely a distant dream, and I'm already a levelseven Ancestral God."
Gravis nodded.
There was a long way to go.
"Follow me. I'll show you your work," Eve said.SHING! SHING!novelbin
And both of them teleported away.
