"Elder Regalis, I am very thankful to you for taking Ricin under your tutelage," Alex said, trying his best not to show his surprise at standing before a living, breathing Monarch.
Regalis Naja was the Monarch of Toxin, meaning he had not only the best but also great control over both poison and diseases, making him a Monarch who stood at the far end of the power scaling.

"The answer is no," Varon said, and his speaking out loud showed how this was not something Alex could agree to.
