Several days after the fight between Lily and Bashi, Yale was contacted by the Multiverse Trading Association, which was the new name of the former Smuggler Association after Yale made it legal.
"Yale, we have some news regarding what you asked us to observe."
A screen appeared in front of Yale, and a woman could be seen there. She was Julie, who became the boss of the Multiverse Trading Association thanks to Yale's appointment.
Although Zuatania also chose to go there, she was too weak after the resurrection, so although she obtained an important position due to her relationship with yale, she didn't have that much power.
On the other hand, Julie was already a God, although she was just a ninth level immortal when she went to the former Smuggler Association for the first time and started to reform it. She knew how to use everything at her disposal to increase her own power, no matter if it was strength or authority.
However, part of that speed was due to having surpassed the huge trauma she suffered long ago. Her talent underwent a transformation after she was able to overcome it, so although she couldn't match the talent of Lina and Ange, she was comparable to Eini.
"As I expected. Speak."
With the support of the Time Faction, the fame of the Multiverse Trade Association reached the pinnacle at a multiverse level, so their network was incredibly wide.
Yale had been using them to gather information continuously. Although he could use his own power to spy other universes, that was just too tiring to do nonstop.
He wasn't bored enough to spend his life monitoring the whole multiverse, and that kind of monitoring would be too imprecise anyway due to diving his attention too much.
Moreover, spying other universes without permission wasn't polite at all, and Yale didn't feel that spying those universes was worthy of tarnishing his reputation.
"We have been monitoring any strange movement from the other members of the Council of Gods as you requested, and recently most of them started having a weird behavior. They are roaming through different universes without any purpose, or that is what it seems, but I am sure that they aren't so bored to do something like that."
Yale nodded when he heard the report. It was obvious that there was a reason behind that behavior.
A lot of Gods that had seen them had the same thoughts in mind. It was thanks to them that the Multiverse Trading Association could obtain reliable information. They have their first-hand sources, but the information coming from the outside was also very useful.
The Multiverse Trading Association was in all kinds of business, so it wasn't strange that even great Gods were willing to obtain its favor.
There was even a huge queue of people wanting to work there. The conditions were great despite the huge load of work, and since the Multiverse Trading Association was under the protection of the Time Faction, known as the strongest faction inside the Council of Gods, those working under them also were under their protection.
Others maybe didn't know Yale or the others of the Time Faction, but they knew that strong beings would feel that their honor was tarnished if someone harmed anyone under them even if they never spoke with that person before.
Thus, working in any place under the protection of strong beings was the best place for most people, and the Time Faction was known to be at the top.
Kroh was famous from the start, but Alrein and Yale became famous after how many universes they destroyed. They were considered the kind of powerful being that would take revenge mercilessly if others offended them, so the deterrence they offered was greater than other members of the Council of Gods.
"Great. Continue the monitoring. If there is any change in their behavior, contact me immediately."
Yale sighed after cutting the connection with Julie. The fact that so many members of the Council of Gods started acting strange suddenly implied that something big was going to happen.
However, Yale didn't know why the Council of Gods didn't hold a meeting to speak about it.
Under such circumstances, an extraordinary meeting should happen, but there had only been ordinary ones.
Most of the members didn't bother with going to ordinary meetings since they were mostly pointless. When there was something important, it would be announced as an extraordinary meeting.
"Huh, a Great God... No, a True God just entered this universe. I can feel that this person is also a member of the Council of Gods. As for the place, isn't it too close to Wyba's Palace?"
The whole county was moved, and they had a whole planet for them in a place far from any other powers to ensure that they weren't disturbed by conflicts.
There wasn't anything else in that area that could catch the attention of a True God.
"I better go to see what happens without letting that the other party notice me. Maybe I will be able to learn something interesting."
An instant later, Yale already disappeared and reappeared in the throne room where Wyba was, but no one was able to see him.
In fact, Yale was in a separate dimension, so it was impossible that someone noticed his presence there.
Wyba's mother was also there, but after so many years, she had already taken human form and looked like a beautiful woman with wolf ears and tail. She even became a ninth level immortal like Wyba.
Clair had already retired from her job after Tofesh forgot about anything else and told Clair that he loved her, but being in Alrein's Universe, Wyba didn't need guards at all, so no one complained that she left.
Obviously, Yale went to the wedding as Tofesh's best friend.
Fortunately for Tofesh, Clair decided to grow up a bit in size to make everything less awkward for him.
A minute after Yale appeared there, that True God also appeared, and before Yale had time to act, Wyba was already on the floor.
There wasn't any ill intention, so Yale's instincts didn't react at all, and he just saw how Wyba fell.
Of course, she wasn't injured, she just fell because the other party jumped to hug her.
Yale hadn't dared to use his power to see how the other party looked to avoid being noticed, so that was the first time he saw the identity of that True God.
Her size was similar to Wyba's, but instead of wolf ears, she had cat ears.
"Cute, you are too cute. The real-life version is even better than I expected."
Yale wasn't surprised by those words because he already recognized the identity of that girl. She was quite famous as the first one to obtain the Cuteness Divinity, so she had the True Cuteness Divinity.
She was known as being crazy for anything or anyone cute, and she really didn't care about other things.
Yale had seen her in the Council of Gods before, but she usually just went there to sleep since she told that everyone just spoke about boring topics, and they were great to take a nap.
"I knew that you would be cute after buying that limited-edition plushie form the Multiverse Trading Association, but you are too cute. Be my disciple. I need a disciple, so I choose you. Settled."
Wyba didn't even have the chance to speak before that True Goddess decided everything on her own.
Julie never forgot her original business using Wyba as the main image to sell goods, so Wyba's plushies reached multiverse popularity. Some even had thoughts of kidnapping her, but it was also well-known that Yale was her big brother, so no one had so many guts.
"Barha, stop. Do you really think that can come here without me noticing it? Probably you are the only one who thinks like that."
Yale grabbed Barha as if he was grabbing a cat to separate her from Wyba, but Barha was born as a cat anyway, so Yale didn't care about treating her as a cat.
"Oh, it is Yaleyale. I also like your plushies a lot! I have the whole collection. Let's play!"
Barha freed herself and jumped to hug Yale. She always acted like that when she found someone that she considered cute, and the plushies with Yale and Wyba made her put Yale in the cute group. She wouldn't even speak to those outside that group.
"If I am not wrong, this is the first time we speak with each other, why are you putting me a nickname?"
Yale could tolerate that a cat jumped towards him, and for him, Barha was just a very powerful kitty, but having that same kitty put him a nickname didn't feel right.
"I always called you like this before. Show me your ears and tail, please. I want to see the real Yaleyale and Wywy set."
Wywy was the nickname Barha put to Wyba's plushie, while Yaleyale was how she called Yale's plushie, so she still called the real ones with the same nicknames.
"I might consider it if you tell me why you need a disciple."
If Barha could tell him the reason for the behavior of the Council of Gods, Yale didn't mind letting Barha see his wolf ears and tail.
"Really? But the others told me that I can't say anything to Yaleyale..."
Barha wasn't good keeping secrets from the start, and just a few random words already told him a lot.
