My Substitute CEO Bride

"That old man? Don't worry, he's not one of us."

"No." Ace pointed to the sky.

"But there's nothing there?" Arlan said.

However, Nash's spiritual body was there, floating.

'Can that guy see me?' Nash wondered with surprise. If he remembered correctly, Talroth had said that even those at the Divine Sojourn Realm could not detect his power. In that case, what was this guy... "Grandmaster, Grandmaster!"

Turning around, Nash saw a kid who looked about 17 or 18 with a little braid framing the left of his face talking to him. He had dark circles under his eyes too. "You can see me?" Nash asked.

"I can see you, Grandmaster." The young man nodded with a cheeky smile.

"You're calling me Grandmaster? Who are you?"

"I'm Francis Dunn's disciple. It's not weird for me to call you Grandmaster."

"Disciple? From what I recall, his disciples were all..."

"Alright, alright." The young man waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and deal with that shabbily dressed guy covered in dark energy."

"Wha... What the heck?" Nash stuttered in confusion. What was this kid going on about? How could he see him? What was going on?

"That guy." The young man pointed to Ace. "Look at his armor. Isn't it just a bunch of bones called the Perforated Wind Armor or something?" "But my body isn't here right now, so I can't attack him," Nash replied helplessly.

"Oh, I have a way."

"You have a way?"

"Yes, yes, don't worry, Grandmaster. Just wait a bit."

"Wait for what?"

"You'll know soon."

...

At the Summit of Ten Thousand

Dynasties Conference, Nash's body

suddenly disappeared from the viewing platform. Seeing this, Zaafea had no choice but to return to his original body while everyone looked on dumbfounded.

"W-What's going on?" Clint asked Zaafea, who had just woken up.

"Really, are they in such a hurry? It's likely someone with Nash used a summoning spell more advanced than Falroth's. Nash's body has no choice but to go to where the main host is."

"But the competition is still ongoing..." Ryan trailed worriedly.

"Don't worry. If their general is their top combatant now, then this group won't be able to stir up much trouble," Zaafea said confidently.

...

At the Illuminion's viewing platform, someone was in the midst of their report.

"Report! One person is missing from Drakonia's viewing platform."

"What? Who?" No. 10 asked.

"It's the one called Nash. What should we do now?" "Activate that! Use it now!" Jake suddenly roared.

"Wait! Are you crazy? Now? That old guy is still here!"noveldrama

"Tsk, so what?! If we don't do it now, we'll run out of time!"

"No! The risk is too high! We could also get caught up in it!"

"I don't care! Since one of them has already left, it means someone is already onto Ace. Are you planning to wait until we've lost everything to use it?!"

"Unleash the Sky-Devouring Demon God!" No. 10 roared, striking a huge nail into the ground.

In an instant, the barrier broke.

A powerful force destroyed everything maintaining the barrier, and those on the viewing platforms were thrown out.

Everyone looked up and saw the eyes of a god open, watching everyone in the arena.

"This! What is this?!" The crowd looked up in panic.

"That's one of the awakened gods of the West, the Sky-Devouring Demon God, Skye," Zaafea said as he gathered dark energy in his hand. "Seriously, are they going allout already?!"
