411-420

Alex politely requested the trio to lead the way to their village.

Though it was a request, from their perspective it was anything but a request.

The words felt like menacing threats under everyones presence.

But what could they do?

They dont have any option except to lead the way towards Crestford village.

The scenery around them changed and Alexs eyes caught the sight of a human settlement from afar.

Streaks of green vegetation disappeared and a large patch of clear land appeared.

But it was a scene, which was quite different from what he expected.

The huge farmland that stretched over the horizon looked dry and bleak.

Plants were growing on it but the product didnt look to be much.

A soil with low-quality yields around 12-17 quintals per acre while good ones produce 22-34.

[1 Quintal=100 kg]

The farmlands in Leonhart produce 24 quintals of rice or other crops per acre.

But the lands before him seemed to produce less than quintals per acre.

Is the soil here really bad? Alex asked Ken.

No, we used to get 19 quintals per acre but due to the drought and many other things, the yield of crops had been reduced.

We have tried to add fertiliser and many other things but nothing seems to work.

What do you mean by other things?

You should ask the village chief for more information?Ken replied.

How do you all live if the harvests are so low?Max asked.

Didnt I say, we mostly hunt? The Crestford forest is filled with small animals and beasts. We are also good at rearing and fishing.

Hunting provides us with a bit of supplement. We are lucky to have the backing of the Forest God. The situation is worse in other situations.Rony explained.

Please lead us to the village Chief first, Alex said.

As Alexs men approached the village, they could see some movements over there.

Alexs steps halted which was followed by his men as he saw the villagers who were working in the open space running away after seeing them.

Some hid in their house and shut their door while others seemed to be fleeing away.

It seems we are again mistaken as bandits, Riya muttered.

Alex looked around his men who lowered their heads with flustered expressions and then looked at Ken and the other two with a pleading gaze.

I should inform the village chief and get rid of the misunderstanding. Until then, please wait here. Ken spoke and walked inside the village.

After some time, Ken was accompanied by a few men leading an old man walking towards them.

The old man glanced at Alex with a scrutinising haze.

There was a hint of weariness in his eyes.

He observed Alex for a moment and askedI heard from Ken that you were the soldiers who had been struck due to a mission.

Yes! Alex lied with a blank expression.

Alex had already prepared for the inquiring questions. He was shocked when he knew that he was in Arkham.

This was his first long-range teleportation but that didnt mean he would mess like a newbie. So, the only plausible reason why he was teleported to Arkham was due to Lady Lucks Blessings.

His luck or rather to say his destiny had pulled him here to accomplish something.

He came to know from Ken that he was 600 km away from the border of Arkham and after 200 km from here, one could start to notice military check posts.

Can you describe the mission? I mean its not that I cant trust you but doing the mission in the Crestford forest sounds a bit weird.

This village is under me and I cant let any anonymous person come and go as he pleases without proper identity. Especially a bunch of people like you.

I understand your concerns. I cant divulge about the mission but we were sent here to examine something. You see this place shouldnt hold any dangerous beasts but we have found the beast of Transcendent rank and Legendary rank here who dont belong to this place.

We were asked to hunt them for the safety of the nearby village and try to find the reason behind this.

Alex didnt know about the place but his experience in the wilderness played a vital role.

The Village Chiefs expression stiffened on hearing Alexs words.

So, even you all think its weird.

Alex explained his made-up story about his team have been fighting for days against the beasts to keep the villagers nearby safe.

Sir, I am Rex. Nice to meet you. Alex spoke.

I am Henry! Nice to meet you all soldiers.

But before we could talk more, I think you should all wash up properly, Henry suggested.

He was finding it hard even to stand nearby them.

Alex smiled awkwardly and stepped back.

Under Henrys management, baths were prepared for Alexs men along with fresh clothes.

Riya pulled away village women separately.

The villagers were quite simple and the women of the village were quite open.

They pulled Riya from the rogue man and helped her to wash up and they were amazed to see her beauty and milky soft skin contrary to theirs.

Though her looks were haggard, her body smelled like fragrance. The Village women praised her endlessly and were happy to mingle with noble women which was a rare occurrence for them.

Riyas thin skin wasnt able to handle their praises and she just shook her head shyly.

.

While Alex and his men finally made themselves comfortable in the village, far away from the Crestford village a certain group was busy doing their work.

The area was dark and rotten giving one a dreary sense of eeriness.

Thick dark fumes hovered in the air which when inhaled acted like poison causing beasts to die or went on a rampage.

Five shadows appeared and walked through the place. The atmosphere and dark fumes didnt seem to affect them, rather they increased their vigour.

This place seems to be quite suitable. One of them spoke while stepping forward.

Trees swayed and the branches started to extend towards one.

She looked at it and spoke with a seductive smileBad boy, its not for you.

The branches extending towards him wilted suddenly and then the tree became a husk.

Lets deploy it. She spoke and pulled out the box.

The woman opened up a box and a dark aura radiated all around the place covering the entire land in darkness.

Lady Moss, it seems to be too strong.

Moss nodded with a smile and looked at the five who were trembling due to being suppressed by the aura radiated from the dark mass of something.

What did you think of this? This is the sacred seed which will help us to bring the reign of Our God quite fast. With the help of this thing, the world shall know the existence of Our God and soon worship him. Moss muttered and placed the dark mass of a substance from the ground.

As soon as it touched the ground, it started to burn with a dark flame and dark miasma spread all around like turbulent water flow.

We are done here.

You three stand here and guard this place.

Loar, you are coming with me. We have some things to do.

In the outskirts of Arkham.

A man walked through the place and arrived before a small cosy and thatched house.

The atmosphere was really warm and peaceful.

The people were sweet, and innocent and treated them as their own which touched his heart.

CREAK!

The wooden door opened and he was greeted by an old man sitting near the fireplace.

Henry cracked his neck and said, Did you dye your hair?

Aled-haired was blood red due to being stained with blood but Henry could discern that it was blonde colour now he saw that he had long black hair.

No, this is my original hair colour, Alex replied, pulling a stool from the side he sat beside Henry.

I had changed my colour for the mission. I am a fallen aristocrat so I need to hide my identity.

His characteristic hair colour may be identified by some as only the Royal of Kinley having golden blonde hair that shined making them stand out from the rest.

So, for safety, Alex dyed his hair black and changed his name.

And about his underlying, he doesnt think that there was anyone who could know about him

Its been a while, Sir Henry.

Good to see you after washing yourself. You look quite good.

Alex raised his head and chuckled.

Is the arrangement of our humble village to your liking?

Yeah, its quite comfortable.

Sir Henry, how much do you know about the recent affairs?

Alex didnt know how much substantial information he could gather from here but he needs to collect as much as he can.

He was in a foreign land and it was not a formal visit.

Henry raised his brows and asked with a gloomy voiceHow much did you know?

I only know our Arkham Kingdom lost. I dont know much about the details as I and my team were lying in the pool during the ongoing crisis.

Henry noticed that Alex might have spoken with a smile as if he was cracking a joke but a genuine sadness and unquenchable anger hidden beneath the surface could be heard if one paid closer attention.

See, I dont know whether the information I am telling you is correct or not. I heard a lot of this from mercenaries who visited here.

Mercenaries?

Yes! As you see there are dozens of strong beasts coming closer, we ask them to kill the one who possesses danger.

Isnt it too costly?

Henry chuckled and spoke.

We dont hire them. We mostly pass the information to the hunters guild or mercenary guild. Beasts have much more use than one thinks. Each part of their body can be used to make exotic things.

In case there is a beast who doesnt have much value we offer some price.

No, coming onto your question.

Please keep it a secret from the other villagers lest they might be scared and feel uneasy

Alex nodded and his expression became grim as Henry started to explain.

After Arkham and Kinley, forces were defeated by third-party interference. The demon appeared and took over the borders of both sides. They are rapidly trying to increase their range from both sides.

So, many believed that higher-ranking demons interfered and broke the scale of the war.

Alex smacked his lips wryly with an uncanny expression as he heard the old mans words.

His eyes lost their colour and he forgot what to say as they defied his attempt to understand the ongoing things through logic.

First, how did demons appear out of nowhere? As soon as they were defeated, demons took over.

It was ridiculous to say that they appeared out of nowhere. Since the warp gate might be destroyed by the mans attacks then there were two possibilities.

Either the demons were lying somewhere hiding their presence or they have built a warp gate with that higher beings presence.

Still, he couldnt expect that this would be the outcome.

And that wasnt all.

There seems to be bigger trouble for him.

The border had been occupied by a demon so all routes to Kinley might have been cut so how hell would he go home now?

The demons need to be defeated for that and to that either Kinley or Arkham need to attack but since demons are still occupying it means Kinley hadnt made this move.

Alex clenched his fist, feeling distressed over the matter.

He was worried about his Kingdom and his wives.

How are they? What are they doing now?

What if they took the wrong step thinking I was killed or were grieving now?

I hope they could somehow know that he was alive. He knew that Athena could feel it.

Henry observed the young man before and patted his shoulder.

Young man, I know you feel frustrated and angry because we lost.

Its not the outcome but the feeling of giving your best that matters.

As long as people like you exist who grind their teeth and stand up again to face the calamity our Arkham wont go down.

Although there was a misunderstanding, Alex felt Henrys genuine concern and worry.

Alex tried to put up a smile and held the old wrinkled and calloused hand and muttered.

Yeah, we are not going to go down that easily. If there is no way for us ahead then we just head to make the way.

Arkham will surely rise again.

Previously he was fighting for his nation and he did what was right but now since he was here, Alex felt that he should do something to help them no matter how little that contribution may be.

Arkham cant fall into Demons hands.

Noahs death might escalate the situation. He cant do anything about that but there are certain things he could do.

That is to get rid of the Miasma and help Arkham to get up on their feet.

He should think of ways to help them from the shadows while keeping his identity secret.

And secondly, he needs to find a way to communicate with his wives.

While going into the military outpost, he wasnt allowed to carry a communication channel and he cant use others to communicate as the channels had to be tuned in to the desired frequency

Although I could already feel my head tearing apart thinking about all this mess, I am sure I can find a way.

The broken blade of the short sword struck deeply onto the spiny anteater.

It was three meters long and its body was covered with sharp pines which could shoot up to a hundred meters.

It shrieked and shot the huge pines over its skin.

BANG!

Swish!

Tearing the ear, the sharp edge of the spines shot forward with an incredible speed.

TANG!TANG!

Few spines were deflected while a few burst through the weapons and shelves blasting away the people but soon a bubble appeared and enveloped them protecting them from being harmed.

BOOM!

Another sword shot was like a missile and pierced through its neck accurately.

Thrashing around and struggling for one last time, it finally laid down its life.

Alex, who stood over a tree, stared at the spiny anteater after it died.

It was just at Epic rank but it could cause more harm than a Transcendent rank.

Alex and his men were staying in the village for some time. They decided to recover to the peak before they moved but that didnt mean they were lazing around.

The grace of the villager cannot be ignored, so Alex ordered his men to hunt as many beasts as possible and deliver them to the village chief so that he could distribute the meat and sell the other previous things.

He heard that the large spines of the anteater were sold for 5 silver coins each and 5 silver coins were enough to feed a family for a month.

While hunting all these creatures, Alex was also doing research of his own.

He tested the soil and found that their vitality had been drawn out slowly and steadily.

Maybe the miasma running rampant in Arkham has seeped deep into the soil and is slowly taking away fertility.

Fortunately, Alex was able to catch it and purified the land and the effect was quite evident.

My Lord!

Alex heard Johnsons voice from afar and signalled him to speak.

We cant go on like this.

Our weapons wont last long.

Its better to call them pieces of scraps instead of weapons, Max added at the sight but he shrank back after noticing everyones angered gaze.

We will be injured if we carry on anymore from this point, Johnson muttered.

Alex nodded and saidI understand. Everyone has recovered so it is time to leave.

Alex and his men entered the village and looked for Henry and delivered the game.

The villagers cheered for them and treated them with respect.

They have been in a joyous mood due to Alex and his men for bringing lots of food during this troublesome period.

Alex looked for Henry to make his leave.

Henry held their hand and shook it with gentleness.

When you entered the village, I was still weary of you but I had no choice but to allow you as we cant contend against you all.

But it seems, I have made the correct choice.

I cannot blame you. The safety of others was in your hands.Alex chuckled.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Alex and his men walked out while the villagers bid them farewell for the last time.

The village women were a bit reluctant about departing but still departed from her with happy faces.

Alex looked at his men and spoke.

Do you remember the plans?

We will split from now and register at the adventure guild to make a fake identity to help us during our stay.

We will meet at the Lunar town two days from now.

.

A few Kilometres away from Crestford Village, Alex and his men separated before entering Crestford Town.

Alex gave me some money to buy weapons for them.

Alex planned to get a licence from the adventure guild.

His men would also get a license and would start taking missions and also collect information on the way.

The Adventure guild is an international organisation that has various branches in the cities of each Empire.

His Kingdom also had an adventure guild that was opened a year ago and he was the one who took part in the inauguration ceremony and cut the ribbons.

But now thinking about this has made him tear up.

If Alex wants to stay updated in the new territory where he doesnt have any footing, he needs to use adventure guild and Information resources.

One can enter the adventure guild library, sell monsters, take on quests with rewards and look for suitable adventures.

Moreover, it can also serve as identification if caught.

Since his party was huge Alex divided them into groups and sent them to other nearby cities to register.

Too many people belonging to the same group getting licences in the same place may pull some suspicion.

If anyone found out that he was from Kinley, he would have to waste his time playing hide and seek again.

Alex along with Riya entered the adventure Guild in Rosavoir town.

Hello, How may I help you two?

Ales stared at the receptionist who was a red-haired lady which made him think about Yvonne for a moment.

Alex spoke while standing before the reception desk.

My wife and I want to register in the Adventure guild and get a licence, Alex spoke, pulling Riya beside her.

Do you already have a licence or is this your first time here in the adventure guild?The lady asked with suspicious eyes.

She could sense the experienced eyes of a hunter in Alex due to her honed instinct and thought that he might have lost his licence and wanted to issue it again.

Alex scratched his cheek and spoke with a smileThis is our first time. We both hunt in our village. After having sufficient experience, we finally got permission from the elders to go out and seek fortune.

The lady nodded and said, In this case, please follow me this way.

Alex tilted his head and followed along.

Alex and Riya were led to the waiting room.

Please take your seat and wait for a while. The lady spoke and left.

While Alexs gaze followed her leaving back, he heard a faint coughing sound from behind.

There was an inexplicable smile on Riyas face as she spokeMy Lord, it seems you are interested in that lady. After going back, should I inform others that a sixth sister is coming soon?

Alex swallowed his saliva seeing the dangerous gleam in her eyes.

You are wrong Riya. I just felt a bit nostalgic seeing her. She looks a bit like Yvonne. Alex spoke with a saddened expression.

Though she isnt equal to Yvonnes single hair.

Riyas expression eased a bit seeing Alexs nostalgic eyes.

I wish we could have our organization here which could help us,Alex muttered.

We have managed to secure the footing in Kinley after a lot of hard work. Expanding our network throughout the world will be quite tough unless we have resources similar to Lockheart.Riya muttered.

Alex stuttered a bit but soon his eyes glowed brightly.

Holy shit! How did I forget that?

There should be a branch of the Lockheart merchant group in Arkham. The trade routes may be jammed but communication would still be working.

Riyas eyes brightened and a beautiful smile appeared on her face which made it hard for Alex not to hug her.

CoughCough

Please show some restraint.

A middle-aged man came in which caused both Riya and Alex to separate.

He looked quite imposing with a large scar on his face.

I am Paul and I am in charge of the adventure center here.

The man who introduced himself as Paul put forward his right hand and asked for a handshake.

Alex grabbed it with his right hand and felt a crushing force gripping his hand.

Alex looked at his hand and stared at the man blinking innocently.

Paul, why are you tickling me?

Pauls expression stiffened and he pulled back his hands.

He used this way to test the toughness of newbies and surprisingly this guys hands are very hard.

Paul was an Epic rank at the age of 49 and was the branch manager of the adventure guild.

Filled with vitality and vigor but looks a little naive.

That was the impression Paul got from Alex initially.

Paul knows the psychology of people who want to become adventurers and treats them accordingly.

Paul introduced himself and asked Alex and Riya about his family, background, and the names of their parents.

There is no power in the guild to determine whether this was a lie or not and whatever they say was recorded.

Nevertheless, the reason for asking this question was to notice anything amiss.

Unless one is a skilled liar and could mask his expression, he would be caught easily.

Now, I am going to stop asking you questions and measure your power level.

Paul asked them to place their hands on the orb while he pulled out a paper and started to write the information.

Rex 21 years, Peak Disciple rank.

Priya, 21 years, Early Disciple rank.

Alex and Riya had lowered their level and acted like a newbie who doesnt know the way of the world.

Seeing their lovey-dovey gaze, Paul sighed a bit and saidYou two seemed to be a match made by heaven. The path that lies ahead may test you but dont give up on it so easily.

Now do you see that dummy over there?

Attack it with everything you have got.

Riyas eyes widened and she felt as if this guy was asking this building to be blown away by Alex which made her back drenched in sweat.

She feared that Alex may blow away everything so she decided to make the first move.

Riya took a dagger and pounced on the puppet stabbing it multiple times causing many small holes to appear in it.

Good!Next!

Alex pulled a spear from the weapon stand and stood before the puppet.

The puppet seemed to be made of a material that could take on a Peak Epic rank attack.

Alex took a deep breath and regulated his breathing.

He pushed his left foot forward and bent his body backward shifting his centre of weight while garnering his strength.

Riya almost bit her nails due to anxiousness as she felt that Alex was going to blow the building.

Like a spring, his body shot forward and he thrust his spear

Swish!

A crimson light passed by and a hole appeared on the puppets chest.

Riyas expression paled as a soft gush appeared in the room.

Unable to find anything wrong, Paul observed and analyzed them

Pondering for a moment, he spoke.

Rex, I will give you an E, and Priya you will get an F grade silence.

E Alexs expression became rotten as if he had stepped on shit.

The license grade was extended from G to S.

G was mostly given newbie who had just awakened and S to Legendary rank and above ranks

Even the Kingdoms and Empires had to treat them seriously.

With an E rank, he couldnt do much, and raising the grade would need a lot of time.

At the very least, he would be able to move around safely in Arkham.

Dont be discouraged, kid. Your ability is enough to get you a D or C rank but you need to have some accomplishment to have that. Since you are new, I can only give you this for now.

After getting some encouragement, Alex wanted to speak something but Riya pulled him trying to get away as far as possible.

Weird, why was the girl in such a hurry?Paul muttered and thought that maybe the two had some other plans.

Paul walked toward the puppet with a hole in the chest but frowned when he noticed a small hole appeared on the wall.

Did the attack penetrate till here?Paul muttered and touched the hole.

Tap!

It was just a small tap and there was nothing wrong initially but soon the wall started to vibrate.

What is happening?

Paul shouted and his question was answered with the bricks of the wall falling over it.

DUSH!

A bigger section of the wall collapsed and the rubble spread all around.

Paul, what the hell was that noise?

With a loud shout, the red-haired woman entered and her eyes widened seeing the destruction.

From the piles of dust, a man covered in dust appeared and coughed violently.

Paulllll!

Honey, I havent done anything, please believe me.

The man who behaved like a calm person now became a scaredy cat in front of the women.

.

Meanwhile, the preparator of the incident walked normally on the street.

Believe me Riya, I controlled my power.

You shouldnt have used man, your mana must have invaded through the wall and broken it.

He can think of it as compensation for giving me a low rank. If he was in Kinley he would be scared out of his wit just by my glance.

Noticing Alexs foul expression, Riya thought for a moment and spoke.

My Lord, if you need something we can use the Licences I have made in Kinley.

Alexs steps halted and he askedLicences.

Riya nodded and said, I have all the grade licenses from E to S under me.

I even had an SS rank license under the name Shadow Queen.

Alex felt his heart skipping a beat hearing Riyas words and he almost fell on his back.

Who didnt you say it to me before?

You didnt ask, Riya spoke with a cute pout making Alex faint in disbelieving.

It seems I should write a novel, My Wife Is an SS rank Adventurer, Alex spoke with a frustrated expression.

Somewhere near the wilderness.

The surrounding was cold and frozen.

Winter was on its way and a small drizzle would ensue in the morning along with heavy most.

Running through the frosty ground, a man pierced through the dark mist.

The surroundings become colder as Alex steps forward.

Alex jumped up a tree with a single swift movement.

The mist covered his vision so he wasnt able to get a good grasp of his surroundings.

Alex raised his hand and twirled his finger.

The wind started to condense and dance in his hand and then Alex fired a shot of compressed wind.

Swish!

The mist screen before Alex was cleared away for a moment and Alexs eyes caught the sight of the prey.

BANG!

The branch on which Alex stood exploded due to his jump and as he landed on another tree, he jumped again.

Shortly, after Alex got his licence, he started to take missions to go on hunts in the wilderness.

He moved along the border areas and hunted in the wilderness and tried to cleanse the miasma he came across.

With a flight spell, he could cover 1000 Kilometers in the day which broadened his range as he moved across the border to and fro.

On the way, he also examined the changes in the surroundings.

He had many soldiers on the way and after getting the adventure guild licence, he started to gather intel.

Inquiring about them, Alex got to know that Arkham is planning to close the excess to the wilderness on the Eastern territory due to the rapid spread of miasma which also put a halt to Alexs operation.

Alex wanted to search the perimeter in the borders but it was guarded heavily and there were even many Legendary ranks out there.

So, for now, he was only hunting beasts, especially the beasts who had been infected and escaped here.

Alex finally saw a dark Asura bear smashing everything.

HaaIts been a long time since I fought with a bear.

Asura bears were limited to Transcendent rank but one before him was Legendary rank and it was giving out a dark ominous aura.

The Asura bears eyes narrowed as it lifted its head and looked at Alex.

The two only gazed at each other for several seconds.

CRRRR!

After the bear saw Alex didnt move, it started to growl and the vibration was sent everywhere.

Alex stared at it with a confused expression.

Alex could see that the bear was contaminated by miasma which raised its power and was in a berserk state, still, it could feel a hint of fear seeing Alex.

It was feeling threatened by Alexs presence and was analysing its chances of defeating Alex.

Alex had discovered that the miasma was the upgraded version of the dark mist which was used for the experiment by Wright and Amidon.

And the antidote which he had discovered there was completely useless against these.

And it caused the person to lose his reason but the bear seemed to be alright and sadly it wasnt the only one.

He had killed many beasts and was affected by miasma but since they were at a lower level, he thought that they hadnt been affected much.

But now he knew that he was wrong.

SHING!

Alex jumped to the side and a spear made of ice whizzed past Alex at an insane speed.

BANG!BANG!

Spears started to fly towards Alex and he dodged jumping from one place to another.

The spears punctured through the tree trunk and struck the tree behind that one.

Another spear shot forward.

Alex didnt dodge it, rather struck the spear with his full force.

Alexs arm shook a bit but the spear was slashed straight and passed through Alex by dividing it into two halves.

Alex rammed his foot onto the ground and shot forward with all his speed.

The bear roared in aggression as another spear exuded a dense aura materialised that shot straight at Alex.

Alexs body exploded towards the bear wh great momentum and found it difficult to dodge the attack so he coated his other hand in the aura and slammed it on the sharp tip of the spear.

BOOOM!

The spear bursts into pieces and an icy mass of dust and Alex pass through the dust, he found the bear appearing before him and slashed its gnarly claws at Alex

BOOM!

The entire forest shook with a shockwave and Alexs figure was shot back.

Alex was able to parry the attack with his sword but he was thrown away due to the result.

Alex, who was in mid-air, was slashed by the claws of an Asura bear coming towards him.

Alex used the flight to change his trajectory.

BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM

Claw marks erupted behind him and pulverized everything in its path.

Alex rotated his body in the air and landed on the trunk of the tree laterally and bent his knees like spring.

And then!

BANG!

Like a squeezed spring was released, Alex kicked the trunk and threw himself towards the bear once again.

The whole tree jerked and the trunk blew away.

The Asura bear senses danger from Alex and locking onto Alex opens its muzzle wide.

Alex saw a mighty beam of dark colour shot towards him decimating everything in its path.

Swish!

The aura in Alexs body exploded and a crimson aura ensheathed his sword forming layer after layer.

Alex gripped his sword and with all its momentum stabbed him forward.

[Piercing Thrust]

SHINING!

A sound akin to tearing off the paper was heard and a highly destructive beam of light made its way towards Alex stopped and was torn into two halves.

The Asura bears eyes widened as it saw the scene and before it could react, soft winds brushed past him and something went past its neck.

THUD!

The huge body falls to the ground after taking its last breath.

Alex landed beside it and clicked his tongueThe Core cant be sold which reduces the price by half. I need to gather precious materials as much as possible.

Alex looked for the source of the miasma but he wasnt able to find anything and soon saw the fences from afar.

There wasnt any strong beast to hunt so with a frustrated expression took the corpse and flew towards Lunar city where his crew was present.

Alex cleaned himself before entering the Lunar city.

Lunar City was 290 km away from Crestford city and was famous for its crime rate.

Lunar City was the base of the Skull gang which ruled the place and looted people.

For any tourist or adventurer, this place was a big no.

But for Alex, it was the city of fortune.

Alex headed straight towards the high-tier building which was in sharp contrast to the other shabby building as it was the base of the skull gang.

Hello, Sir Rex!

Please take a look at the fresh bread I cooked today.

Sir Rex, here is a gift for you.

Please say hello to your wife for me

I will convey your words, Aunt Gita.

Uncle Dawn, thanks for the bread.

Thanks, Aunt May. Alex chuckled and returned the greeting meanwhile his empty hands had been filled with all sorts of things.

Alex shook his head seeing the warm and joyful laugh of the citizens.

All of them were terrorized by the Skull gang until Alex took the matter into his hands.

He only wanted to loot the gang and use its members to help during his stay but the one who benefited the most was none other than these common people.

These people quickly took a liking to the lovely couple Alex and Riya while trying their best to help them settle down.

There was no Mayor of this town and the people even wanted Alex to be Mayor here but Alex refused.

The noble in charge of this town would soon find out the news and seek trouble but to the mass agitation in Arkham, he seemed to be busy.

Alex didnt want to wait for him to come here and he would personally deal with him when he left.

Alex heard a loud shout and soon saw six bulky people running towards him with serious expressions.

They stood before Alex with a sharp glint which made it look as if a bloody fight was going to ensue.

But their expressions changed suddenly and all of them bowed their heads and looked at him with puppy eyes.

What the hell are you watching? Taking the things from Sir? How can you let him carry all this?

Sir please dont burden your arms.

Let this servant carry the things.

The men muttered and took away the things from Alex.

Not bad!Not bad!

You are slowly learning to be a civilised person, Alex muttered and patted them.

Its all your blessing Sir. You have shown us the light and led our pitiful and astray souls to the correct path.

Alex suppressed his urge to laugh and looked at Malcolm.

He was the same man who was mocking him four days ago only to be beaten like a dog by Alex.

Creak!

Alex entered the house and walked towards the basement where there was a small training centre.

He saw Riya meditating cross-legged. Her power was increasing at a rapid rate to the point she was unable to keep up with it.

She was fine at first but when Alex pulled her to hunt the creature of darkness, she started to absurd the dark mana rapidly.

She had hardly controlled the power of lust and now the other power was running a rampage.

So, she had been trying to calm herself and familiarise herself with her power.

Riya slowly opened her eyes and asked with a smile.

What did you get today?

Alex pulled out a corpse from his space ring and put it before Riya.

Riya raised her brows as he pointed at the corpse with trembling hands.

A legendary rank asura bear.

Alex nodded and leaned against the wall folding his hands over his chest.

The situation in Arkham is getting worse. The higher-ups seemed to be coming up with something.

Riya, it seems we need to get Lockhearts main branch quickly, Alex said with a serious expression.

Alex had a token which granted him absolute status similar to Yvonne.

But the problem was that only a high-ranking member of the Lockheart merchant group could identify the token as it was highly confidential.

If he saw the token to those who were not aware, they may think of it as a fabrication.

The main branch of Lockheart branch groups was situated in the Capital of Arkham, The City of Arlington.

To gain entry to the periphery, Alex needs to show a reason.

So, while hunting for clues of miasma, Alex killed many high-rank beasts and stored the precious materials in the beast.

A corpse of Legendary rank could be sold for 1000-3000 depending on the beast.

Riya was analysing the corpse with a keen interest and suddenly she felt a shiver as she saw dark-coloured mana seeping inside.

Alex, this..is this what you were speaking about? Riya spoke while flinching back.

Alex walked towards Riya and pulled them into his arms while caressing her hair.

Yes.

Since this beasts pure mana had been tainted and converted to dark Mana, you were able to feel the mana flow.

This is a good thing Riya. Alex tried to assure aura seeing her fearful expression.

It is an indication that you are slowly getting a hang of your powers.

I dont know if its good. I fear I will lose myself and may harm you or others. I feel that my powers will take over me and control me.

I thought it was the power of Lust that I have to keep in control but the power which I showcased that day seemed to be a hundred times more dangerous.

Remember that fight creeps me out. The power of darkness disgusts me but at the same time, it makes me feel complete. It is quite complicated but whatever, maybe I dont want this kind of power which causes nothing but destruction. Riya spoke and her eyes became moist and teary.

Riya, if you didnt have that power, we wouldnt be alive.Alex smiled and wiped out her tears.

We should also look at the positive side of these things.

Alex could sense the uneasiness in Riyas heart that was going on every day.

It was also making him afraid as he didnt know much about it. The power of darkness along with the power of Lust may be mixed and change Riya into something which he was afraid to even think about.

He was only taught to calm the power of lust, not the other.

And even the Goddess is keeping silent about it no matter how many times he asks.

Everything had a good and bad side. As long as I am with you, I will not let it devour you and make you remember who you are.Alex muttered while capturing her lips.

Riyas body trembled and she was surprised by Alexs sudden advance but Alex didnt let her go as she tastes so sweet that Alex didnt want to let her go.

Just like today, I will make you remember with my body that you are the wife of Alex Von Leonhart.

I will make my presence engraved in your heart. I am irreparable Alex spoke with a smirk while pulling Riya into a princess carry position.

Beast! Riya muttered softly and showed a bit of resistance though inwardly her heart was fluttering being filled with sweetness and warmth.

A carriage was hurling towards its next destination.

Inside it, Alex and Riya sat observing the outside scenery.

They were accompanied by Johnson and five other people.

Max and Aeon have been left in the Lunar city and were ordered to look for the information that came in handy.

They were on their way to Arlington but before that, they needed to make a halt to deal with a certain noble.

Their carriage entered Oxhelm city ruled by a noble household of Count Gray.

The person in charge of places filled with scum. All the cities under him had been ruled by syndicates that hoarded people and filled Count Grays treasury.

Alex, I think we two should just sneak in and take him out. Why are we wasting so much time here? Riya asked with confusion.

Count Gray seemed to be corrupt and shady. Even in the bad times of Arkham, he is accusing the Emperor and tries to seek trouble with him.

His behaviour raises many questions and yeah there are a bunch of them, Alex spoke.

Isnt it Arkhams problem, why are you interfering with it, Riya asked, raising her brows.

Alex chuckled seeing Riyas expression.

Do you remember the person who came to kill us?

Riya frowned and her eyes became cold as soon as Alex mentioned the name.

He clearly said that he had two tasks. One was to kill me and another was to get rid of Noah and his men

And who could hire them?Alex asked.

Are you saying that the nobles that are opposing and trying to rebel, may have been the ones to do this?

Maybe or maybe not? Alex rubbed his chin and saidCount Gray was just a suitable target we stumbled upon. Since we are here I wanted to take a look.

Even if they are not behind this, they may have a connection with that secret organisation.

Riya stared at Alexs grim expression.

She knew just what organisation he was referring to.

For the past year, they have been searching for it but they werent able to find much because their means of communication were quite secretive and no one who had ever visited knew about their headquarters.

It was even odd that people make deals with an organisation without knowing anything.

Even the Magic Tower had a hard time dealing with the scrolls used by this organisation.

KnockKnock

Alex was snapped out of his thoughts by Johnsons tap on the glass pane.

We are here.

Alex nodded and stood up.

Riya you will be staying here.

What? Why? Riya asked irritably.

Its better if you fight less from now on. I want you to recuperate and get used to controlling your powers. So you are forbidden from using it until I say. Alex spoke with a stern look.

Seeing her disheartened look, Alex shook his head with a smile and kissed her forehead.

Forgive me, My Queen, I am saying this for your good.

Alex walked out after calming Riya and looked at the biggest mansion in the centre of the City.

Be careful, Johnson advised.

Take care of Riya and dont let her fight if you encounter something, Alex ordered and his silhouette disappeared.

.

Somewhere in the Grays Mansion.

A man walked through the tunnel filled with darkness and after emerging from it, he took a look around himself.

He was now in a passageway of an ancient-looking structure.

The only source of light illuminating this place was a lit torch on one of the walls.

Because of low light conditions, he narrows his eyes to silt as he finds a dark blocking his path.

He pulled out a flame torch from the side and after running his finger across the wall, he threw it.

The torch hit a protruding object on the wall and it caught fire which ran around in a straight line eventually forming a line.

Soon, a door appeared in the dark wall.

He was greeted by the sight of weapons arranged neatly on the display on either side.

Longswords, short swords, now, spears, mace, daggers, shields and much more

A truly vast array of weapons were endlessly stacked against the wall.

It looked as if the place was the storehouse of weapons for wars as each weapon was of top grade.

The man walked past the array of weapons and reached the other end where various things were present.

Boxes filled with treasure and riches lay all around.

There were many shelves containing scrolls and parchments.

Chests laden with gold and various riches.

And in the middle of the treasure trove was a small table on which a small box was placed which emanate an ominous aura.

Staring at it, he felt something weird.

His heart started to beat like crazy and his eyes shone brightly.

It was as if he was being called out by the box saying that it was his and only his.

He was struck at an early Transcendent rank.

He had become old and lost his touch.

When he was on verge of giving up, he found a way to gain absolute power.

For years, he had been collecting things to carry out the exchange and he had finally succeeded.

Though it was weird that the other party contacted him first and agreed on settling for less, he didnt mind it.

As long as he could get stronger and live longer, he didnt mind it.

With more power, he would shine in glory once again.

He stepped towards the table and stood before the box and observed it.

His eyes shone with greed and his heart elated.

However, as he was able to open the box he heard a loud shout from someone which startled him.

What the hell is this dark place?

Is it a torture room?

The man looked at the source of the voice and saw a young boy stepping out from the dark wall.

The boy who walked in leisurely suddenly halted as the sight of immense riches reflected in his eyes and then his gaze locked onto the old man who flinched back seeing the murderous gaze from the boy.

Alex, after entering the Gray mansion, found a big basement underneath the mansion using his mana sensor.

He noticed Count Gray stepping inside alone so he followed him. Count Gray was just at Transcendent rank and doesnt pose any threat to him.

For a moment he was elated when he entered after witnessing the mass of accumulated wealth that this bastard ripped off from others but suddenly he started to have a bad premonition in his heart as he noticed Count Gray trying to open a box giving an ominous sign.

Dont open it, Alex shouted.

Count Gray furrowed his brows seeing the man here.

Who are you and how did you enter here?Count Gray shouted with anger.

Alex didnt answer but hurled his way towards Count Gray.

Count Gray started to have a bad foreboding in his heart and thought the man was here for the box.

He wanted to steal the power.

Shields!Count Gray shouted and Alex, who had covered many meters in seconds, appeared close to him but was stopped by an invisible shield which pushed back due to the rebound.

Count Gray panicked and quickly opened the box inside from which a black pill emitting a darkish aura was kept and he immediately stuffed it into his mouth.

Damn! Alex gritted his teeth and clenching his fist, hit the barrier.

BANG!

The entire passage shook and a small crack appeared on it.

Alex slammed his fist again and again which sent tremors all around. The ground vibrated and soon the barrier burst into pieces.

As Alex stepped forward, a strong force assaulted him.

Powerful darkness aura erupted out of nowhere and at the centre of it, stood a man who screamed on top of his wrongs.

!

What is happening to me? He shrieked in terror due to the deep pain.

His veins bulged and his whole body seemed to be set on fire.

Alex felt a shiver down their spine as he saw a wriggling mass of darkness engulfing Count Gray and the man seemed to be melting.

Alex didnt know whether he should interfere as he was afraid of being engulfed by the unknown thing. He was looking at something that he had no prior information about.

He was brave but not stupid. Unless he knew about what was going on he wasnt going to touch that disgusting piece of shit.

Why the hell am I so unlucky? How can there be so many coincidences? Alex questioned himself in a frustrated manner as he found it too odd.

Alex raised his sword and prepared a light elemental strike while observing the thing before him.

Alex also fired spears made of light but it was blocked by a dark fog which entirely covered its vision.

He wasnt able to see anything ahead.

Maybe he could if he used darkness mana but he didnt want to switch to dark mode unnecessarily.

Soon, the black fog started to dissipate slowly and a shadowy figure stood.

His eyes emanated a dark greenish light and his entire body seemed to be engulfed with dark armour.

Alex could see the man was alive but he seemed to be lost himself. The current appearance of the man was similar to the shadow demon Alex had seen in hell.

Dont tell me, the thing it eats before could convert a normal human to a shadowy creature of darkness similar to shadow demons.

Shadow demons were the guards of hell made by the Devil.They looked human except their body was strong and they were covered with an armour of darkness.

Screech!

The Shadow figure before Alex emitted a bestial shriek. Gnarly claws extended from its arm and it jumped towards Alex trying to tear him apart.

Alex pulled back his sword and dodged from the side letting the claw hit the ground leaving a claw mark.

While dodging, Alex flicked his sword which was parried by the other hand of Shadowy Creature.

CLING!

Alexs sword vibrated and the sound echoed throughout the place.

Sure enough. Its claws are each strong as metal and his armour might also be very strong.Alex muttered while he ran around.

The Shadow Demon threw its claw while chasing after Alex.

SCREECH!SCREECH!

Alex wobbled his body and sidestepped dodging the claws while jumping through the passage.

The Shadowy creature which used to be Count Gray before has lost all its reason.

To tear Alexs part seemed to be the only thing going on in his mind. It was fighting on sheer instinct and attacking anything that threatened him.

The wall shook as it slashed its claw which hit the wall and destroyed it.

Cracks appeared on the ground and soon the tremors radiated up.

The entire Grey mansion seemed to shake due to the fight underground making everyone restless.

ROAR!

Unable to catch Alex, it roared out furiously, seemingly quaking and destroying the ground under its might.

Its strength was at the peak of Legendary rank and it seemed to be one step away from becoming Mythic rank but the power seems to become unstable making it more frenzy.

Normally, Alex would have gotten rid of it as quickly as possible but Alexs sharp senses noticed something amiss and he was able to find something.

He was sceptical at the sudden turn of events. Since Count Gray seemed to be too keen on taking the pill means that it arrived recently and he was sure it was today.

This made Alex think about whether the delivery man was still in the mansion or the city.

And Alex noticed the effect of the pill so he was sure the other side wasnt fooled enough to let this monster run amok and get noticed by higher authorities as it could tear a part of the entire city and cause irreparable loss.

So he concluded that they wanted Count Gray to kill someone who would arrive today.

He doesnt know whether his arrival was in their prediction but after using a mana map and sensing the flow of mana, he finally caught two rats far from the mansion observing the situation.

Two dark elves.

One at Transcendent rank and one at Peak Legendary rank.

Alex had marked their location and coated his sword in a light aura while wondering how to give them the biggest surprise of their lifetime.

The ripple generated by the fight spread out at a frightening speed and roused up the underground passage.

A darkish aura leapt out and covered everything while filling the entire place with a loud bestial shriek.

BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!

Ripples radiated one after another threatening to tear down the narrow place.

BANG!

A figure shot back like a meteorite which crashed onto the black wall.

Slamming on the wall, the silhouette of the figure flew back but it was able to manage its momentum and landed on its toes while sliding away for a few meters.

Alex didnt even get enough time to react to the surprise as the entire wall came crashing down and a figure tore it apart while shooting straight at him.

A large tightly clenched fist came flying at him leaving behind a flash of the dark trail extinguishing the flame torch on the wall.

Swish!

The attack was coming from too close a distance and its speed was too fast.

Alex urgently raised his arms while holding his sword to block the attack.

SLAM!

The power behind the punch was so incredible that both his legs were thrown away as he flew to the wall on the far side before crashing into it.

CRACK!

The debris from the broken wall tumbled to the floor.

Alex swallowed back and tilted his head to the side and evaded another fist which left a massive hole in the wall behind him.

The creature was getting stronger and more adept as it went on fighting.

Alex was analysing and processing data and taking his time but it seems that it wouldnt last long enough and he needed to shift the gear.

Two shadow arms raised from its back and without a single break in between, it started to attack again and again.

Alex was punched by four hands at a time which was left behind only after images.

Each powerful punch was strong enough to kill high-ranking warriors.

Alex, who was blocking the attack clumsily at first, started to throw his fist faster.

The bombardment of attack from the four separate arms was being blocked, deflect or redirected by just two arms

Their movements were so fast that they look like a collection of afterimages now.

The shadowy figures eyes narrowed and a flicker of surprise appeared in his darkish green eyes.

It was surprising to witness the man matching its speed. Though it had lost its reason and fought on instinct, its instinct could feel that the human was weaker than him but even so he was able to match his speed.

The bestial instinct inside it was screaming in anger and rage.They started to slam his fist faster and faster.

The moment those subconscious thoughts appeared, a light flashed before his vision.

It was the punch thrown at it by the human.

BANG!

Alex jumped up and threw a punch. It hit the face of the shadow demon, resulting in it being deposited onto the ground and rolling away in the dirt.

It still stood up and pounced on Alex even though faint cracks appeared on its face.

The shadow creature flew towards him like an arrow and swung its big fist at him.

BOOM!

The punch sliced open the air and crashed into the wall, making it collapse into countless pieces of rubble.

Alex dodged it and gained some distance and threw a first of his own.

The shadowy creature threw a fist of its own as a counter.

Two powerful fists clashed against each other pressing down hard on the ground.

The torso of the shadow creature tilted and it was finally pushed back but before it could counterattack, Alex did a double retake.

The vile shadow creature jumped up high and tilting its body, it landed on the ceiling with its feet and sprang towards Alex.

CRACK!

The stone tiles on the ceiling couldnt endure the momentum and spat out debris as it shattered into countless pieces.

Many arms appeared on its back with an obtuse angle directed at Alex.

Alex stepped forward with his sword and pulled out another from the sword scattered in the swords stand from afar and leapt forward.

Under the interior that was neither too dark nor too light, a shimmering trail of crimson was left behind from Alexs motion as he chased after its movements.

CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!

Weapons collided and rubbed against each other.

The deafening roars continued on unabated as Alex and the shadowy figure exchanged innumerable attacks and counterattacks in an instant.

Within the huge passage, the world slowed down to crawl. Only these two writhed and struggled mightily trying to struggle against the flaw of the world.

Alex hadnt used dual wielding skill for a long time but even after that he didnt look rusty or pushed back.

It was an evenly matched battle where blades clashed against each other trying to cut one another.

After exchanging quite a several blows, Alex guessed that a normal attack might injure it and damage it but it couldnt kill it.

He needs to hit this guy with a strong attack imbued with light elements and overpower it.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Leaving behind cracks and scrapes all over the tunnel filling it with rubble and debris.

Two trails went over each other.

The ground and the ceiling began to tremble. If this goes on, the huge mansion above the place might collapse or suffer damage.

Alexs shoulder moved slightly. The shadow creatures claw brushed past his shoulder with a gap that couldnt be detected with the naked eye.

Alexs sensory perception was at an all-time high and they had exceeded the limit of his realm and he was able to read the trajectories of every weapon in the enemys hand.

He poured all his mana into the sword imbuing it with the light element and decided to give his all in the next blow.

While doing this, he dodged the shadow creatures attack with a narrow margin and accurately managed to evade the attacks.

Both of his swords glowed.

A deep layer of light sheathed both swords.

He grabbed both his sword tightly and as the figure appeared before him, he swung both his sword with all his might.

Swish!

A pillar of light erupted which engulfed the shadowy creature and blasted it into the ceiling.

The beam of light didnt stop and erupted from the ceiling with a long blast.

BOOM!

Outside the Gray mansion, two people observed the happenings of the Gray mansion.

The peace and silence were broken by quakes transmitting throughout the city.

People around City were startled by the sudden tremors.

There were no traceable fluctuations for common people but those who were awakened and had a little bit of mastery in sensing the flow of mana picked up on the utterly horrifying maelstrom all around the giant mansion.

As a matter of fact, the magical energy leaking out was so savage and brutal that the space around the mansion started to distort and a crack appeared causing the walls to break into rubble.

The knights and armed personnel were alerted and looked for the source of the odd event.

The guards of the Knights mansion started to evacuate the people working in it while the Guards working in the City tried to guide those who were close to Grays mansion to leave quickly.

Shops and stores were closed down.

Inns and bars were emptied and people were asked to leave.

Cracks appeared on the ground on the roads as they tumbled like waves.

Debris and dust started to fall inside the mansion. All the glassware inside broke due to the loud tremors.

The garden was in a mess and everything was in a frenzy and a state of panic was seen all around.

Standing on a small building, one of the dark robe figures was worried seeing the scenario and broke the silence.

Is the man who is currently fighting inside our target? Loar asked.

I am not sure about that? Moss spoke with a grim expression.

We just have to wait and see the result. Whoever comes out as a victor, we have to kill that person?

But Miss, how did you expect that man to be here?

We received the intel that someone is investigating Count Gray and would sneak close to him and we want that person to be killed but seeing the things happening within two hours of the delivery, I guess that this wasnt the targeted person, Moss spoke with a weary gaze.

The person who might be investigating Count Gray should be quite strong and backed by strong guards but the person who is fighting Count Gray now seems to be alone.

They have been guarding the place for a while but they didnt even notice a suspicious individual entering inside.

While two Dark Elves discussed, their expression crumbled.

Thiswhat the hell?

BOOOOM!

With a loud blast, a part of the ground collapsed and a horrifying beam of light erupted from the place shooting up towards the sky.

The violent energy churned the sky, shocking everyone in the mansion and shockwaves spread causing everyone to stumble on their feet.

The two Dark Elves are startled by what they saw and quickly take a step back with a conflicted look.

The aura close to the Mythic rank that was fighting now vanished instantly by the attack.

The light ascended towards the sky and dispersed in an instant but it didnt go unnoticed in the eyes of others.

Ahhh!

We are under attack!

Run away from here!!

Get out of here or you will die. Hide somewhere.

Screams and shrieks echoed and the common people were frightened and panicked.

People started to evacuate and spread far away from the Gray Mansion.

It was killed like this. We dont know whether we have to kill this person or not, so what are you going to do now? Loar spoke with a stifling expression.

Calm Down Loar, hide your aura. We are quite far from the place.

Lets observe the human for now and if he is deemed dangerous we will kill him. He cant get through concealment. Moss spoke, however, her complexion distorted and her eyes opened as wide as a saucer as the presence of the man disappeared before she disappeared.

All of a sudden a dark veil seemed to envelop them masking away the outside. Moss was quite familiar with the situation.

It was the looming shadow of death.

All the hair on the back of their neck stood up.

Swallowing their dry saliva they tilted their head when they heard a faint hoarse voice.

Yo, ladiesI hope I didnt make you wait long enough.

The voice crashed onto them drowning them in despair.

Moss didnt make any hasty move and raised her brows at Loar and then, a short sword appeared in her hand and she screamed.

Loar leave!

BOOM!

An ominous energy struck Alex trying to invade inside him and interfere with his mana.

Alex stared at a pair of dark short swords which clashed against his sword.

The shortsword had been filled with curses and if the enemy got a cut, he would suffer a terrible fate.

Loar who was about to run stopped as her body froze watching the scene of Mosss attack being stopped easily.

Alexs eyes become cold and the temperature plunged greatly which causes Moss to become speechless.

Moss felt as if she was glancing at her death. The man who appeared with a casual and jovial tone and seemed to become indifferent abruptly.

As soon as she attacked, she felt that something inside the man changed and triggered the mans rage.

Mana leaking out from Alex was enormous and the space around him started to twist.

The building on which they stood started to shake and cracks appeared all over causing it to shatter.

Moss cried inwardly with a single thought.

Does this guy have a dual personality?

You are the one who appeared here to attack me. I didnt find you. Moreover, what is this ridiculous strength? You are clearly at an early legendary level but he didnt even flinch even though my attack carried all my strength.

Moreover, the concealment skill that man used carries a slight trace of darkness mana.

Just from where did this beast come?

Alexs eyes restrained Moss with a single glance.

Her short sword was imbued with a curse, her nails had been tainted with poison, and there is a short dagger at the end of the ponytail which had been poisoned on top of all this, she had the blessing of the darkness which was quite strong.

The other lady who stood rooted didnt have the blessings which meant that this lady is special.

Countless thoughts appeared in his mind and he grinned.

Alex pushed the short sword and pointed at Moss.

I will give you a chance. Tell me who you are and why you targeted me. I will let you live.

Mosss brows furrowed for a moment.

He surely had the strength to kill me so why is he giving me a leeway? Is he bluffing?

Sir, you were never our target. Unfortunately, you appeared at the wrong time and wrong place

Ohh! Alexs lips curled and spoke.

Girl, you might not know me but I know you very well Miss Moss.

I am your superior and a member of that organisation.

Moss blinked her eyes with a startled look and asked with a graspSir, who are you?

Alex sneered and said, You are not worthy to know my name.

Lets get out of the place before we get caught. Meet me outside the city. Alex muttered and disappeared in a flash.

And yeah dont bring that trash with you. Her presence is irritating.
