"Klopp, it's been a long time." Wearing a pure white gauze dress and mage robe, Befu walked up to a middle-aged Knight and said.

The middle-aged Knight stepped out of the Knights' Hall to greet Befu. Behind him stood a dozen or so Knight and Mage of level four or above.

The man in front of me, named Klopp, is the nominal head butler of the Western Islands.

All three hundred Holy Tower and over eight hundred Knights' Hall encompassing the entire Western Islands were controlled by the person before him.

Although he has not yet reached the level of a ruler, in terms of personal power alone, Klopp is stronger than some of the newly emerging rulers in the Wizard World.

His qualifications, his connections, and his prestige ensured that only he could suppress everything in the Western Islands.

Of course, since it is the official head steward, there must also be a de facto controller in the Western Islands.

The actual controller was none other than Befu, Level-7 Peak True Spirit female Mage.

This vast family fortune was not earned by Befu herself, but inherited from her father.

"Long time no see, Miss Befu." The middle-aged Knight Klopp nodded slightly and greeted Befu.

Klopp still uses the same name he used for Befu from hundreds of thousands of years ago.

After hearing this, Befu smiled slightly and said, "I can't really be called a young lady anymore, I'm getting old too."

Befu's smile eased the atmosphere considerably.

Then, at Klopp's invitation, the group entered the main hall of the Knights' Hall' Hall.

Befu came to the Western Islands for two reasons: firstly, to handle long-standing official Western Islands Saine's side, and secondly, because the Knights' Hall was about to open, she took the opportunity to visit.

Although Befu had always entrusted Klopp with all matters Saine's side the Western Islands.

However, as the de facto heir to the Western Islands, Klopp still reports to Befu every now and then.

Klopp's meticulous work style has persisted for hundreds of thousands of years.

This has been the case since Befu's father's time, and it continues to this day.

Today, many people are no longer here, including many familiar faces who have grown old.

But some things remain the same as before.

This is the persistence of an older generation, and also the inheritance of a certain spirit and belief. Befu said she was old, but in fact, the middle-aged Knight Klopp in front of her was even older.

The powerful Level-6 Peak Life Level was what allowed the Knight in front of him to still maintain the appearance of a middle-aged man.

But actually, Klopp's situation is a bit worse than imagined.

Without breaking through to the level of True Spirit Dominator, one will never be able to achieve transcendence.

A series of official and Magic Contract quickly appeared before Befu after she entered the main hall of the Knights' Hall.

The Knight and Mage behind Klopp were mostly individuals responsible for specific tasks within the Western Islands. →

Their strength may not be the strongest in the Western Islands.

But this group of people is the most indispensable presence in the Western Islands.

It is thanks to them that the Western Islands can function stably in all aspects.

Those Alien Plane, affiliated, and vassal planes controlled and enslaved outside the Wizard World can be effectively governed and their resources allocated.

Not only in the Western Islands, but also in the Mamet United Alliance and the City of Steel, there are similar groups who help Befu manage her forces.

Befu was merely a decision-maker at the very top.

From the perspective of civilization, it involves handling or guiding the general trend.

Klopp is considered a mid-to-high-level manager, and he is in charge of the entire Western Islands.

The Knight and Mage of level four and above who appeared in the main hall of the Knights' Hall were those at a lower level, responsible for the allocation and scheduling of specific tasks.

For example, once a policy is implemented from top to bottom, the Knight and Mage present are responsible for spreading the rules to every Holy Tower, every Knights' Hall, and even every island within the Western Islands.

The process of handling official business is tedious.

However, Befu has many years of experience in this area, and the Western Islands are the easiest force under Befu's command.

Therefore, in a relatively short period of time, Befu handled the most important batch of official business.

Inside the magnificent hall, the Knight and Mage of level four and above who had originally appeared there retreated one after another.

As Befu put down the magic quill, only she and Klopp remained in the vast hall.

"Klopp Knight, when do you plan to advance to the level of Overlord?" Befu asked the Level-6 Peak Knight in front of her after putting down her quill.

At this moment, Klopp's face showed a hint of emotion, three parts guilt, three parts gratitude, and three parts melancholy.

The last point evoked a rather inexplicable emotion.

Perhaps this Level-6 Peak Knight himself doesn't want to challenge for the Dominator title anymore.

Because so many old friends and acquaintances have passed away, and because he has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, Klopp does not possess the same fighting spirit as Knight and Mage in other Wizard World.

Saine's grandmaster, Lady Cuilisi, also possessed level six strength, making her a prominent and top-tier figure in a region of the Wizard World.

But compared to Klopp, this Level-6 Peak creature Knight is fully qualified to call her "little girl".

The difference in ability is relatively easy to explain, but the main issue is the difference in seniority.

As Knight of level four or higher, Klopp contributed to the Western Islands and the Wizard World.

Cuilisi was nowhere to be found then; she probably hadn't even been born by then.

Cuilisi is a top-tier powerhouse of the new generation, emerging only in the last few hundred thousand years and dominating the Wizard World.

As for Klopp, his age and experience likely date back four or five hundred thousand years...

Klopp fell silent when faced with Befu's question.

Befu didn't want to push her father's old subordinate too hard, so she simply said, "The Western Islands need a Dominator-class expert to oversee things, don't they?"

"As a top-tier power with a long history, and a legacy left by my father, neither you nor I would want to see the Western Islands decline, would we?"

"The latest statistics from City of Steel show that the total number of Knight and Mage of level four or above has exceeded one thousand, and it is about to catch up with the Western Islands."

"I'm not saying that you haven't done a good job over the years, Klopp Knight. I just hope that the Western Islands will develop even more brilliantly in the future," Befu said.

As an outstanding and intelligent woman, Befu knew exactly what kind of words would impress the Level-6 Peak Knight in front of her.

Perhaps as this Level-6 Peak Knight grew older, he no longer cared much about anything else, but he placed great importance on the foundation of the Western Islands.

This is because it is the only burden that a Level-9 Being in the history of the Wizard World personally entrusted to him before leaving the Star Realm.

Taking a deep breath, Klopp's aura was noticeably different from before.

The middle-aged Knight clasped his hands in a fist salute to Befu sat in the main seat before him, and said, "I will be making every effort to break through to the Dominator Realm soon!"
