My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

The Mission Hall Master had been a part of this sect for a long time, but this was the first time he had seen someone from the Holy Church arrive here.

"He is the Archbishop of the Holy Church."

Eren explained how he came across the Archbishop during his mission and why he decided to bring him to the Sect. It was a matter between two Overlords, so he didn't have much choice either.

"I see. The Holy Priestess sent a letter to the Sect Master. It must be something important."

Although the Hall Master was surprised, he believed Eren. It was impossible to lie about such a thing, especially since there were so many witnesses.

"In that case, you can bring the guest to the Sect Master. I will handle everything here."

Eren had thought that the Hall Master was going to bring Nathaniel to the Sect Master, but to his surprise, this task was also handed over to him.

"I will take him in that case." He agreed, also being slightly curious about the contents of the letter.

He told Nathaniel to come with him, but as he was leaving, he noticed the outer disciples that had gone on a mission with him.

"Oh right, how can I forget. All ten of them have performed exceptionally well in the mission. Can you arrange an Inner Disciple position for them?" he asked the Mission Hall Master who handled the rewards for all missions.

"An Inner Disciple position? But they are the weakest even in the Outer Sect?" The Mission Hall Master found it hard to agree to this demand. "How about I give each of them a thousand contribution points?"

Eren frowned. He approached the Mission Hall Master, bringing his lips closer to the old man's ears.

"I promised them this reward. I hope you are not telling me to break my promise?" he asked the Hall Master.

In the Demon Sect, not all Hall Masters held the same position. While the Alchemy Hall Master was Great Elder, the Treasure Hall Master was a mere elder.

The Mission Hall Master was also nothing more than an Elder. If anything, his position was the lowest even amongst the Elders despite him being one of the oldest.

Eren couldn't pressure Zia in a similar manner, but he could definitely put a little pressure on the Mission Hall Elder, especially since it wasn't such a big thing.

The Mission Hall Elder gulped nervously. If it was another Elder, he might have held his ground, but Eren wasn't any other Elder.

Eren was the person that the Sect Master herself brought to this sect. She also assigned this mission to him and not any other Elder. There were already many rumors about Eren being close to the Sect Master.

As if those rumors weren't enough, there were now rumors about him drinking blood and eating flesh of those who he killed. It was enough to intimidate the Mission Hall Elder.

"I-i will make it happen."

"Much better." Eren smiled while patting the old man's shoulders. Sometimes, he really enjoyed carrying a reputation that scared others. It made some things so much easier to handle.

He glanced back at the ten disciples but didn't say a single word to them. He simply flew away towards the core region, accompanied by Nathaniel.

The disciples watched Eren leave. Some of them were excited that they were now inner disciples, but most of them were still disappointed.

Not a single person amongst them was selected by Elder Ren as his disciple.

"You people are very lucky. You have the recommendation of Elder Ren. Just that name alone will keep you safe from quite a few troubles in the Inner Sect.

The old man sighed while watching Eren disappear in the distance.

The Inner Sect was more chaotic than the Outer Sect. There were almost no rules for the disciples here. They were even allowed to rob other disciples or kill them, as long as they could bear the consequences.

It was especially worse for new inner disciples that were often robbed of their resources. Although Elder Ren hadn't taken these disciples himself, it was a fact that he recommended them.

The old man knew that it was only a matter of time before you spread through the Inner Sect. And only fools would try to rob someone recommended by the Demonic Elder.

"Come with me."

He told the youngsters to accompany him inside the Mission Hall to finish the formalities.

Ye Liang was the only person left outside the Mission Hall. The innocence in his eyes disappeared as he turned to leave as well.

[You have received a new quest]

A screen floated before him while he walked away.

....

Eren reached the Core Region of the Demon Sect, which was protected by a barrier. However, this barrier didn't stop anyone from entering the region as long as they were part of the sect.

Instead, it alerted the Guards to their presence.

As soon as Eren approached the barrier, the Guards arrived and blocked his path. Fortunately, this time he wasn't sneaking inside. He had a proper reason.

After Eren explained, the Guards allowed him to pass through, but they didn't let him go alone with the Archbishop of the Holy Church.

The Leader of the Guards accompanied Eren, along with a few other guards who kept an eye on Nathaniel.

Soon, Eren reached the center of the core region, where he noticed a palace-like structure.

He had always thought that this was where Feng Yu lived, but he realized that wasn't the case when he last infiltrated this place in search of Xiu Ying.

"The Sect Master is inside. I will go and inform her. You can wait outside," the Leader of the Guards told Eren before entering the Palace.

A few minutes later, he stepped out.

"You can enter."

Eren and Nathaniel approached the entrance, but the Guard stopped Eren.

"Elder Ren, only he is allowed to enter for now. So please wait."
