Sam took finished his work in the Mirage city and brought Arkiv to the Imperial capital. He has to meet Yodha and ask about the possibility.

The smuggler went on to do with his regular business after saying goodbye.

After they reached the Imperial capital, he directly took Arkiv to Yodha.

At this moment, Yodha is extremely busy because he was given the responsibilities to organize the tournaments to select the candidates. That is why Sam is confident that he can give him a position at the pool.

"Why are you back here? Is our business going on smoothly? Why did you come here?"

Yodha asked Sam as soon as he appeared. As for the stressing on the 'our' Sam has rejected Yodha to join in the weapon and shipbuilding, but later he was afraid of the security. He was so used to opening businesses left and right on his home planet and he forgot to consider the risk here.

So, later he has to go and request Yodha to be a part of it by himself. Yodha didn't mind much, but he is taking some petty revenge like this.

"I am here regarding the tournament." Sam ignored his antics and continued.

"He is Arkiv, he is just like me. He also came for the Palace of Inheritance. But I don't know if I could really request the emperor regarding this."

"Are you sure?" Yodha looked at both of them and asked. Sam nodded at Arkiv and he took out the token. Since the Palace appeared, the token is finally active, they can take it out now.

When Yodha looked at the familiar token he nodded and said.

"I don't know if he would agree or not, but I will try."

"It is beneficial for him if he agrees. At least he will have extra people going in from his nation and he can recruit them to get more benefits, if he doesn't have entry, all he could do is participate in the tournament and he will get a place by hook or crook. You guys will stand to lose."

"I will mention this."

"When will the final tournament begin?"

"In two weeks. The tournaments in various cities are already in their final stages. So, it wouldn't be too late."

"Okay then, I will go and wait for your reply."

Sam left the place along with Arkiv.

He didn't expect that Arkiv would come for him and he also didn't expect that he would have to listen to the crap about how difficult his life was in the past year.

After some time, he couldn't take it anymore and handed the job over to Arman. He called him back from the camp and gave him all the responsibilities regarding Arkiv and was planning to go back to Mirage city, the business is in the final stages and the first batch of steamboats and ships will be released to public sales. So, there is a lot of work pending for him.

But before he could leave, Emperor called for him.

When he met the emperor he seemed to be in deep thought.

"Just how many of you are here and what is this about? At first, I thought only you are here for this palace, but then you added Arman, I didn't think much of it, but now another one of your friends appeared here. Can I get more details?"

Sam thought for a bit and said.

"The Palace of inheritance is actually a test for us. It started in our place and the next phase of the test was conducted here. As for how many. There are actually twelve candidates and out of twelve three of us are here.

As for the tokens that came out from the palace itself, I will be honest and say that they are just there to increase our difficulty as well as a compensation to you and your kingdom.

The twelve of us are deployed to different places on the planet and the palace of inheritance also appeared in different places, we can enter the Palace from any of these places.

At first, I thought only I and Arman are sent to your Empire, but my friend also appeared here and I don't know if anyone else will come."

"Since anyone can enter the place as long as they have the token, what if someone grabs a token from the twelve of you?"

"Our tokens are special, they are bound to us by body and soul. There is no way anyone can steal them. We have to enter the Palace multiple times."

"What can we expect in the Palace?"

"It is dangerous. There is little chance that people would actually die, but they would suffer severe trauma from the damage they will take. The tests are tough and they vary from time to time. I don't know what they are going to be this time, but they will get great rewards that are out of the world."

Emperor didn't question any further, he knew that it is not too great to push the privacy of others by too much.

"So, what should I do with these friends of yours if more of them pop up? The public and the officials will think I am giving special treatment to you guys."

"But it is for your own benefit. There are only two tokens that you could use and the candidates who come here will definitely be stronger than most of the guys here. They will definitely want to enter the Palace by hook or crook and most of them wouldn't want to reveal themselves as special candidates of the Palace of inheritance. Because it is too dangerous.

The only reason I am telling you this is that I trust your character. From what I know the candidates in other nations will participate in the tournament and gain positions, reducing the chances for the empires.

I am saying this to give you a chance. After all, whatever they gain inside will be useful and superior to what you have hereby a lot. So, I am just giving you a chance to maintain that."

"So, what you are saying is, I should let you guys go and keep the tokens for the candidates from the empire?"

"Yes."

The Emperor went into deep thought and said.

"I will do that. If you find any other candidates of your twelve then just give me advance notice. I want the three tokens for my citizens only. But you cannot enter the sacred grounds with them, you have to enter secretly. So do tell me if new friends join you, I will have to make arrangements."

After that everything went smoothly. Sam knew that he judged the emperor's character correctly. He is a great man and treated his citizens responsibly without any tyranny. During his travel around this place, he also understood the people's affection towards the Emperor.

It is hard to fool the public and it is almost impossible for a man who has such a place in people's hearts to be an unreasonable and greedy man. That is why he was confident enough to reveal these details to him.

Anyway, after this time, the Palace of inheritance wouldn't disappear, it would still stay in that place at least that is what happened in the past, and so the Emperor might figure it out sooner or later.

At least with this, he could develop a certain level of mutual trust towards the Emperor.

After he was done here, he went back to Mirage city, he has to finish his initial preparations in the factories and start his business. The Weapon shop already took action. The Special weapons are doing great and they are not sitting on the shelf even because of their superior prices.

After a few days, Sam was done with the preparations in the Mirage city. Both of the businesses are ready to be on the market.

One of them is a beach resort.

The resort is full of Cottages, there is not a single stone building in and each cottage has wide and large windows giving the way to the sea breeze and the view.

Even the restaurants, massage centers, and other recreational centers also have the same style of construction.

The view is amazing. And the sea breeze is relaxing. As for the cottages, they are made with a special Crystal bamboo.

Most of them have blue-colored bamboo and they are translucent. The blue liquid inside the bamboo sections and when the sun rays fell on it made it an extremely beautiful scene.

As for the night, the bamboos give out a dim glow giving a special and mysterious feeling to the people inside.

This is one of the best holiday spots.

Massage, spa, and the food side things are all dealt with Vasu, who has experience in this area. Yodha is responsible for the government side of things and Sam gave the plans and even food recipes.

Even on the opening day, the resort already became extremely famous.
