Biography

The auction and pursuit of Jack

Crownbeast attends the Empty Star Auction alongside Elder Puerto, keeping watch as Jack's bidding draws attention. He openly challenges Jack over the Overlord Core and makes clear that the dispute will not end with the auction. When Jack prepares to leave, Puerto warns him that Crownbeast can wait for him to leave Empty Star City and attack, then helps set the terms of a confrontation. (Chapters 506–511, 513)

Jack eventually fights Crownbeast in open space. He uses his speed and close-range power to break through the elder's defenses, kills him, and retrieves the core from his body. Jack's victory gives him the Overlord Core that he later absorbs. Crownbeast is a separate individual from Crownbeast Saturnstar, Jack's tournament opponent. (Chapters 514–515)

He is confident enough to pursue Jack after the bidding and to confront him directly. The novel does not establish further identifying details in these scenes. (Chapters 506–511)
