['Do I head over to the dormitory now?'] Alex asked Al.
['Hmmm, not yet. I think we need to prepare one last thing. Sothing for our protection, just in case we run into soone that we can't handle there. We need to have sothing that can ensure our safety without using that terrifying side of our blood.'] Al answered.
['And what exactly do you have in mind?'] Xander asked.
['I want to coat one of the weapons that the Dragnel brothers gave us with the poison that we got from Nana. She said that it can even kill a heaven realm cultivator, with that by our side, I'm hoping that it will be enough and also hoping that we don't have to use to it.'] Al disclosed.
Soon they reached the guest inn and Alex quickly went to his room.
['Well then, just take over.'] Alex suggested and switched with Al.
"It's not that hard to do, I just need so oil that I can mix with the poison then heat it up for a little while. After that, we'll be good to go." Al explained.
He went to the kitchen and got himself so cooking oil, then he took it to his room and mixed it with the poison. After that, he brought out the glass-like dagger from his storage ring and soaked it in the oil that he had mixed with poison.
After soaking it for a few seconds, Al brought it out of the oil.
['If I use my flas to heat this up, will the knife be able to handle it or, will it lt? It looks fragile.'] Al asked.
['We've used the flas on the sword, spear, and bow, nothing happened to them. I don't think anything will happen to the knife.'] Lex thought.
"We won't know until I try. If I see that anything is about to happen to it then I'll stop right away." Al sighed and walked to the window at the corner of his room, he raised his right index finger. He pointed the finger at the knife and focused on it.
"System, activate gas mask."
-Ping!
*Activating gas mask. Gas mask activated.
Al made sure that the fla that ca out of his finger was small and not as hot as the one he uses to form arrows. The fla touched the knife and it started making sizzling sounds. The oil on the knife started to dry up. The smoke from the oil went out of his window and into the sky.
Several minutes later Al was done and nothing happened to the knife, in fact, the knife was looking sharper than it previously did.
"The cake has been baked." Al licked his lips as he looked at how marvelous his knife shone.
"Ti to head to the dormitory, we don't want to be late for our appointnt now, do we?" He placed the knife back in his ring and left for the exit of his room.
When he was walking past the living room, he saw his teammates making their selves at ho, as they usually do.
Camron saw him walk by and he went after him. When Al was about to exit the suite, Camron caught up with him at the door.
"Is it your protector that you're going to et?" Camron asked him.
['My protector?'] Al wondered. He made sure that his ignorance didn't show on his face.
['He still thinks that we are royalty.'] Xander pointed out and Al understood.
"Yes, you can call him that if you want to," Al answered, referring to himself.
He was about to leave-
"Wait, is sothing wrong? Are you going to leave the lower plain realm?" Camron stopped Al from leaving.
Al tilted his head. "Yes, but not today, or tomorrow. I don't even know when I'll be able to leave, but one day I will leave this lower plain realm." Al answered truthfully.
Camron sighed in relief. "Oh thank goodness, I thought that you were going to leave wait, if you are not going to et your protector to take you back ho, are you really going to ask him to punish so people?" Camron whispered the last part.
"Yeah."
"Who?"
"When the ti cos, you'll find out. Now if you'll excuse , I don't like to be late to appointnts." Al ended the conversation and left the suite.
On his way to the dormitory, Al noticed that he was being followed. There were many people around so it took him a while to notice it.
['Guys, I have a tail.'] He inford the rest.
['Find out who it is.'] Lex said.
Al made a quick turn and looked behind him, when he did he imdiately spotted the person that was following him.
['Isn't that the stalker that was in the sa class as earlier today?'] Alex thought.
['The idiot is not even trying to hide his presence.'] Al thought. Al was a little bit pissed at himself for worrying that he being tailed by soone that could pose as trouble to his plans.
The stalker was hiding amidst the crowd of people but was still easy for Al to spot.
['Just ditch him and proceed with the plan.'] Alex said.
"You don't have to tell that twice," Al whispered and proceed to erase his presence. He used the crowd of people to his advantage and disappeared from his stalker's sight.
Not long after that, Al arrived at the entrance of the dormitory. He entered the sa corner that Alex entered when he wanted to change his face.
"System, change my face."
*What would the user like to change his face to?
"The recent one that I used."
*Morphing, please stand by.
Al's face began changing and monts later, his head was without hair. He turned into the bald head that he used the last ti that he was here, and made his way to the room that he saw Rayne exiting the last ti that he was here.
"Oughf!!" Al heard soone cry out when he was just a corner away from Rayne's room.
"Please, please, it's all I have. It was very hard for and my teammates to obtain these, it was the reward we got for completing the mission that we took. At least take my share and leave the rest so that I can give them to my teammates." Al heard the sa person that cried out, plead.
['What in the hell is happening?'] He thought.
He went forward and peeped from the corner to look at what was happening. The door to Rayne's room was open and anyone passing by would have been able to see what was happening.
Two of Rayne's friends were restraining a guy, while Rayne stood in front of the restrained guy.
['An unlucky duck is being robbed by the pack of dogs.'] Alex uttered.
"I don't care. Give all of it to us, you don't want to lose your life over a few energy crystals now, do you?" Rayne threatened.
"You can't do that, in the academy you are not allowed to kill your fellow student." The person being bullied said.
"We can't touch you in the academy, sure, but who says that we won't look for you when we are on holiday?" Another target of Al threatened.
"You wouldn't." The guy that was being bullied looked terrified after hearing that threat. Tears started dropping from his face.
"You wouldn't Help!! Sobody help!!! Please, save-"
-Thud!!
Rayne punched the guy's stomach and shut him up. He quickly ran and shut the door to his room.
['Not enough to stop from seeing what's happening.'] Al thought.
"System activate X-ray vision and enhance whatever sound that is coming from the room insight.
*Activating X-ray vision. X-ray vision activated. Please stand by, the system is preparing to enhance and adjust the sounds coming from the targeted room.
Soon the skin crawler did as he requested, and Al could roughly see what was happening in there, and also hear what they were saying clearly.
"You can either give them to us, or we'll break your arms and seize the whole pouch. That way you both you and us, wouldn't be able to access the energy crystals.
Your teammates that you are trying so hard to fight for their share of the reward, will not get a thing. In other words, this is a win-win situation for us and a lose-lose situation for you.
Now tell if you want your hands to be broken or if you want them to stay the way that they are."
['I think it's more comfortable to do the threat before you make the threat, that way your victim will know that you have no ti to bluff'] Al comnted, seeming to find this predicant a bit entertaining.
['Everyone has what cracks them. Besides, they can't access his storage pouch unless they break the bond between the owner or kill him. They are also in a tight spot.'] Xander stated.
"If you touch then I will report you to the authorities in the school." The guy that was being bullied dared them.
"You think we are afraid of that, we have soone that is a direct descendant of a class-3 ancient bloodline family, as our leader. You think the school will pay your complaint any significant thoughts. They are going to give you a tap on your shoulder and so candy to sweeten your bitterness." One of the bullies boasted.
Including Duna's na was all they needed, be it directly or indirectly, soone like him wouldn't want to offend the mber of a class-3 ancient bloodline family. The guy being bullied chose to give up.
"Okay, okay. I'll give them to you, just, let's not involve the ancient bloodline family in this." He uttered as he tried his best to hold his emotions back.
The guy removed 15 blue low-density energy crystals from his storage pouch and let them drop to the floor.
