Inside the Arkham Royal Castle.
Alex wasn't expecting a grand banquet as the situation was quite solemn but seeing the Royal Family bowing before him made his heart swell with pride but at the sa he was also startled seeing such a scenario.
A ruler of an Empire bowing down his head to a person isn't a simple matter as it sounds.
"Shouldn't you be resting for a while? Why are you walking all around?"
"It's all thanks to your grace. Not only was I able to get rid of that and stay alive but my rank also rose from early Mythic rank to Mid Mythic rank." Nolan spoke with a sincere expression.
Seeing the bright eyes of Nolan staring at him, Alex felt a bit uncomfortable.
"And since my benefactor is asking for sothing, it's natural I should be present."
Alex sighed and waved his hand.
'Fortunately Sienna accompanied Riya to have a small tea party otherwise she would be flustered by their gazes.'
Alex looked at Vermouth and pulled out heaps of paper and placed it before him.
"What is all this?" Vermouth asked curiously.
"These are the nas of the nobles who were smuggling goods and other things secretly with the help of so scums from Lockheart."
"Many of them might be in the process of staging a rebellion and might have joined hands with demons. You must segregate them."
"Also don't leave anyone associated with them."Alex spoke with a grin.
So people might surely enjoy this.
Vermouth along with others' expressions beco cold as they hear about this.
"Is this the help you want us to ask about?"
"No, I need two things to help with."
"First, I have located a base of the Secret Organisation and need your help to deal with them."
A chill radiated inside the room suddenly.
Noah's eyes beca bloodshot and he gritted his teeth in anger.
"Is that the bastard's organisation that is responsible for annihilating my n?"
The sad scene of his n and his two Mythic rank guards turning into ash appeared before his eyes made his heart found it hard to calm down.
"Yes!" Alex spoke with a grim voice.
"I want your help to raid the place. Normally I should have gone alone but I don't know what trouble may await us there."
Vermouth stared at Noah and decided to let him decide about this after all his second son was the one who had suffered the most.
Noah pondered for a mont and then shook his head with dead eyes.
"Alex, I want to rush to that place and crush them like maggots but I don't think I can muster the courage."
"What if another powerhouse cos out? How can we deal with them? We also can't ask for those Elder's help without any strong evidence. Moreover what if they are killed due to their weakened state."
Noah's plausible words made Alex smile.
Even in this situation, he was able to cool his mind and think about all the pros and cons.
So people were consud by anger, grief and jealousy causing them to lose their minds and make hasty decisions which had a grave effect.
"Noah, do you rember the teleportation spell I told you about?"
"I can teleport many people but if I want to say about absolute confidence, I can teleport 15 people if we face any danger."
"I may have trouble with more than as the ti of casting would widen and the enemy attack would reach us but if it's 15, I can guarantee that even a Supre rank can't touch us," Alex spoke in an assuring tone.
"Can you promise that?" Noah asked seriously.
"I swear on my na. You may be injured but none of you will die or suffer a life-threatening injury."
Noah exhaled deeply and then spoke with a bright smile"Then it's done."
Vermouth and Nolan laughed seeing Noah's expression.
"Alex taking down the organisation is what we ought to do? It can't be counted as a help."Vermouth spoke.
"You can ask anything you want."
As Alex heard a heavenly lody, he was trying hard to maintain a blank face but his lips curved a bit upward with a devil smile.
'That's what I have been waiting for.'
"I need resources."
"Resources." Vermouth murmured with narrow eyes.
"Since I have been thrown from the Royal Family, I haven't received much support from them."
"I have never taken any elixir or other things to strengthen myself. I know my Strength is already great among my peers but I need to prepare for the upcoming event."
"So, I need anything that can help to raise my rank as much as possible with very few side-effects," Alex said.
"Wait! Wait!!"
"Are you saying that you have never taken any elixir or help from external ans to strengthen yourself, "Vermouth asked with a frown.
Alex shook his head.
" For real!"Nolan and Noah scread at the sa ti.
"Why are they looking at as if I have committed a grave mistake?"
Nolan coughed with an embarrassed expression and said"That's because many of the nobles and other people take elixir that broadens mana vessels and facilitates circulation before awakening and then consus it at regular intervals to strengthen themselves."
"I have taken it from ti to ti but after reaching Legendary rank I have decreased its frequency."
"If you throw money, you could have gotten him easily," Noah said.
Alex scratched his cheek and said, "I didn't want to rely on elixir so much so I mostly avoided this kind of thing."
"Yeah, taking too many of them isn't good." Vermouth spoke.
"When do you need this?"
"Probably as fast as possible."
"Then Alex you can go on the raid first. By the ti you are back, I will make sure to give you one of the best gifts of your lifeti." Vermouth spoke with a mischievous smile.
Alex swallowed his saliva and his anticipation was heightened after seeing the smile on Vermouth's face.
