Chapter 144: Skeleton Raid



"Well, Sir, if you need any help, just contact me. I will do my best to fulfill your needs. Even though Lily knows many things about this kingdom, I doubt she knows the underbelly of it."

"Ah, does that mean you are very versed in this kingdom\'s underworld, Mr. Blaire?"

"I am just doing what I need to do to survive, Sir," Blaire said with a smile. He then excused himself after giving the card to Alex.

Looking at Blaire\'s back walking toward his chariot, Alex\'s gaze turned sharp. He looked toward the card once more, then put it into his storage ring and entered the market to find Lily.

Outside the secret realm, in the Crystal houses, Quartz and Zold had already recovered. They still preferred the camp above the house since it gave them a view of their surroundings.

"Just where is Alex? Now that we have recovered, we should quickly find a way to get out of this place," Quartz said with an annoyed tone.

After Olivia returned, she told everyone how she was controlled by a parasite. She didn\'t go into detail about what happened, other than Alex somehow removed it from her body.

This news made the others feel worried. A parasite that can control an awakened body is very dangerous.

Any dungeon with something like this, regardless of its level, usually requires a specific hunter to join the hunt. This Hunter will have specialized abilities to ensure no one is controlled.

Quartz felt thankful that Alex had a way to remove the parasite. She didn\'t want to have her family\'s blood on her hands because they were controlled by a parasite.

But now that Alex was gone, what would they do if the place suddenly got attacked by the parasite? It would be a tragedy.

"It\'s not even an hour, Aunt Quartz. Why are you so impatient?" Emily asked.

"Emily, I don\'t believe you need to ask this.

Do you know how dangerous that kind of parasite is? Now tell me, can you raise your hand to shoot me or Olivia if that happens?"

Emily turned silent at that remark.

Could she do it? Of course, she knew the answer—she couldn\'t.

She would try her best to escape from them and find a way to remove the parasite without hurting any of them.

"I am sure Brother also knows about this, so don\'t worry too much, Aunt." Emily said confidently.

Quartz then turned her gaze toward Olivia. "Why are you so quiet now? What do you think about this, Chibi? Don\'t you think we need to leave this place quickly now?"

Olivia didn\'t answer Quartz. Instead, she asked, "Petricia, is your Master alright? Do you really not know where he went?"

She felt worried about Alex\'s situation. Based on her knowledge of Alex\'s character, he should have returned unless he found some problem.

Alex was the type to avoid problems if he could, looking for the safest route. With the existence of parasites, normally, he will be the first to suggest that they leave the area quickly.

"Don\'t worry, Lady Olivia. The King is alright; he just needs to take care of some matters."

Hearing how Patricia addressed her, Olivia\'s cheeks turned into a pout. "Did Alex tell you to change how you address me?"

Seeing Olivia\'s displeasure, Patricia\'s mind quickly churned.

She could tell Alex was the one who told her to do this, but she felt that would create a problem between Alex and Olivia. She had watched enough drama to know it was better not to get involved with this King\'s personal affair.

"No, Lady, I just thought it\'s better to call you \'Lady\' too."

Olivia squinted her eyes. She didn\'t believe Patricia did it of her own will.

Quartz was confused by this; not only was her question ignored, but Olivia also seemed very dissatisfied with Patricia\'s words.

"Just what did she call you before? Why do you seem mad about it?"

Emily was trying her best to hold her laughter. She could guess what had happened. \'Poor Olivia, should i help her?\' Emily wonder. But she forget the idea since she also don\'t want her brother interfere in her love life. Not like she have any now.

While they were busy with their talk, Zold was standing near the edge of the building, his eyes sharply looking at the city.

He couldn\'t put his finger on it, but he could feel something was wrong.

Even though everything seemed the same, it felt like something was lurking in the shadows and gathering around them.

From the edge of his view, he could see a black silhouette moving. Zold didn\'t hesitate; a gun appeared in his hand. Despite having a dagger as his main weapon, Zold still had experience using a gun.

BANG!

A shot was fired, pulling the attention of Patricia, Emily, Olivia, and Quartz. The bullet tore through the air with high speed, meeting its target with a CLANG!

The shot hit the crystal wall of the building, ricocheting into the dark alley.

"What are you shooting at, Zold?" Emily asked with a worried expression. At this moment, all of them had already moved, standing beside Zold.

"I don\'t know yet. I thought I saw a black shadow entering that alley."

Their gaze then focused on the alley, scrutinizing every movement to make sure they wouldn\'t miss anything.

A moment after they did this, a weird sound came from behind them.

Quartz instinctively turned; her shield appeared in her hand with a CLANG! The metallic sound of clash resounded in the area.

Behind them, a humanoid skeleton with tails on its back appeared. Its hand held a pair of daggers.

Crackle! Crackle! Electricity zapped through Zold\'s body; his hair stood up like spikes. The gun in his hand disappeared, replaced with a dagger.
