Alex, Pearl, and 2 other Immortals in the Immortal Spirit realm flew out of the guild. These two were new people neither Alex nor Pearl had seen before, and were under direct order from Flareborn to aid Alex in finding the thugs.
Both of the two were male, with one being taller and more buff than the other one.
Alex had already thought of a plan on how he could find these people, so he bought a dozen different sets of ingredients, mostly for one particular pill at the moment.
Before going anywhere else, Alex took Pearl back to the cottage where they were hiding. He let Pearl stay back, and instead took Whisker with him.
While Pearl was strong, much stronger than Whisker, strength wasn't going to be the answer here. Their enemies, if still in the city, were likely going to be much, much stronger than anyone else they had fought before. So, the only thing they needed to do for now was to find them.
