CHAPTER 18: Chaos in the castle

"So this is Alpha's talent. Haha, it looks like I really found a treasure."

Leon looked at the blonde elf as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

Should he say it was surprising or should he say it was just expected: the talent he saw in Alpha was, in fact, the same "absolute genius" as his!

(No wonder she learned the knowledge taught to her so quickly. So far, I haven't found anything that Alpha isn't good at. If her talent is called [absolute], then it all makes sense.)

However, there are high and low scores for the same talents.

"If you use me as a reference, Alpha's talent is probably less than 50 points."

Leon narrowed his eyes and said.

This means that the elf girl's "Absolute Genius" is only less than half as powerful as his. Leon takes one day to master the knowledge, and Alpha takes two to three days.

But that's good enough.

After all, Leon's talent is a cutting-edge product that was delivered by the system, while Alpha is purely natural but has surpassed 99.99% of people in the world.

"Just call her a unique genius, but in this case, I would be humanity's strongest genius."

Just when Leon sighed proudly.

"Uff~ Uff~ ahh~"

"It's okay, Beta. Although it's difficult at first, you'll gradually get used to it. Let me tell you my goal today... I don't want to be able to catch his sword, as long as I can dodge his swing." "

"Wow, yes."

The silver-haired elf nodded awkwardly. This standard seemed simple, but Beta had no confidence that she could achieve it.

Only by personally witnessing Leon's swordsmanship can one understand how beautiful and powerful her technique is.

Alpha, on the other side, was also a little frustrated.

Yesterday she promised that she would catch up with Leon, but today she discovered that the distance between the two, not to mention shrinking, was actually greater than I imagined!

(Today, her swordsmanship is even better than usual. Sure enough, he was showing off before. I thought I could get a little closer, ahh~)

(But what is going on? Although he is so young, he possesses such powerful power and abilities, Leon is really a person full of mysteries.)

Secrets make people more attractive.

Alpha's eyes were filled with helplessness and desire.

She clenched the sword in her hand and decided to work harder. If she couldn't do it once, she would do it twice. If she couldn't do it twice, she would do it three times. She would definitely catch up.

Even though this goal is very far away, if she gives up, everything will be over.

The elf girl was obviously a genius, but she worked much harder than a normal person.

(This isn't just for revenge. Revenge against Diablos' cult requires strength. I don't intend to give up my hatred, but... More than that, I want to stand by his side now.)

Leon asked her to serve as the first member of [Night Raid]. With such high expectations, she must live up to his expectations!

Alpha made a decision.

The current [Night Raid] is still very small. He needs to recruit more descendants of heroes to expand his scale, influence and strength.

Sooner or later, Night Raid will become an organization worthy of him, and then he will definitely defeat the [Cult of Diablos].

The elf girl has a noble but humble sense of mission, and she is full of motivation and working hard today.

Just then, Ram, the pink-haired maid arrived.

"Your Highness, Princess Anisphia is here."

"Huh? Is Nee-san skipping school again?"

Upon hearing Ram's report, Leon immediately thought of his past experience with his sister.

Although Leon did not deny that these classes were indeed boring, they were indeed mandatory courses for the royal family... He completed them in three days.

He gestured to Alpha, who was not too far away, and Alpha immediately nodded in understanding, and then picked up Beta and changed into a maid outfit.

Her external identities are the same as Rem and Ram, they are all Leon's employees.

"Hey! Leon-chan, I'm here to play with you!"

"Nee-san, you skipped class again. How did you manage to escape?"

Wearing an orange princess dress, she ran towards it and then got down. Anis threw herself at Leon skillfully, as if she had done this action hundreds of times.

Leon asked with a bit of curiosity.

This is a sign of a good relationship between siblings, so he doesn't hate these exchanges.

He was just a little curious.

Since Anis had skipped school ten times, her father, the king, had angrily ordered that when she was in class, a circle of royal knights be formed outside the classroom.

Could it be that this girl's truancy skills were so good that she managed to escape the hands of more than a dozen royal knights?

"Actually, I wasn't caught today. My father sent the knights to investigate. There's a lot of chaos in the palace right now."

Anis brings unexpected news.

"Huh? What are you investigating? Is it possible that a wave of monsters is coming?"

"I don't know the details. I just heard that something terrible happened... The xxx mountains in the south seem to have been penetrated by something during the night, but how is that possible~?"

"Yes, yes, how is that possible? Hahahaha~"

Leon turned his head guiltily.

He later learned that the entire kingdom was on alert. It was said that there was a suspicion of the appearance of a legendary and terrifying monster, and even his father seemed to have lost his hair.

Although he seemed like a misunderstanding, it was better not to tell everyone the truth.

It would definitely be bad to say that. Believe it or not, it will definitely be very troublesome in the end. So Leon decided not to say it after thinking for a while.

(Ahem, I did some good deeds without leaving a name, no need to thank me for opening a very convenient mountain pass for everyone.)

"Pfft~"

Alpha, who was pretending to be a maid beside him, looked at the young man's embarrassed look and laughed. No one would have imagined that he would be the culprit.

(No one except me~)
