Chapter 333: Guard

"Based on what he explained to me, it should be something like a teleportation portal. But it needs to be activated from this side. I also need to do something to make sure it works."

"That's it? Why don't you just tell Alex?"

"You think Alex will agree for the association to intervene here? At the front, it will show as they send backup, but in reality, they will take the spoils too."

"Based on what I know about him, he won't care that much. Just see the chaotic situation in this place now. If the association can reduce casualties and take control of the city, I am sure he won't mind," Alice said as she took a step to the side.

If Alex were here, he would agree with what Alice said, but not now. Only when everything was done would he allow the association to come here.

As Alice saw William trying to open the door, a thought came to her.

"William, are you sure the association didn't lie to you? If they really have a method like this, why were they beaten?

Won't they be able to move between locations instantaneously? I think there is something more about this. Can you explain it to me in more detail?"

"Sure, let's talk inside," William said as his eyes looked at the situation around them.

The drugged humans still did all they could to kill the Dragari.

Fighting sounds could be heard everywhere. Screams of pain, clashing of metal, the pungent smell of blood. The situation was really chaotic, with no end in sight.

William already knew the secret mechanism on the door, allowing him to quickly enter. Inside, they found it looked like a normal bar devoid of any people.

"Just how did this place survive all these years?" Alice asked, feeling confused.

"We are not alone here," William said. He then took out his dagger and raised it toward his back.

CLANG!!! Sparks flew in the air.

William turned his gaze, finding a figure standing there. The person's body was covered in a black combat suit, showing only the eyes.

"Who are you?" A feminine, muffled voice came out from the person. Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"The president sent me," William replied as he threw a badge.

Solomon didn't tell him the place would be guarded by anyone. But he did give him something he said might be useful if something unexpected happened.

The woman caught it, her eyes still darting at William and Alice, not dropping her guard. She used her mana to feel the badge, and then a look of relief washed over her.

"Finally, after all this time." She threw the badge back to William.

"How could you stay alive?" Alice asked.

Based on her understanding of the situation, there was no way a human could survive all this time, even if she was a strong hunter. She was staying deep inside the enemy frontline alone and even defended this building.

"I have my ways. This is my secret to survive. Anyway, since you are here, does this mean the association has perfected it?"

"I don't understand what you mean. The president just sent me to do something here."

"About that, could you show me now?" Alice asked. She still didn't believe it was just a simple teleportation portal.

Meanwhile, back with Alex, he felt bored and decided to leave his room. Outside, he was greeted by two people from the Midnight Clan.

"Hello, Sir Alex. I am sent here to take care of your needs. Did you need to go somewhere?" One of them asked.

She had an attractive appearance, wearing the Midnight Clan uniform. But Alex could recognize her, as she was one of Reina's maids.

"I just feel bored and want to look around the area."

The other person, a tall man with a scar on his cheek, replied, "I am sorry, Sir Alex, but I will need to confirm with our Deputy first before you can go out. It's just that the situation in the clan is not good now, so we must do this to ensure your safety."

"Ensure my safety?" Alex asked back with a chuckle, "Just say both of you were sent here to watch over me. Well, I don't mind, but whatever reply your Deputy has, I will still walk around the area.

So you have two choices: show me places I can visit, or I will just go on my own."

The man turned speechless at Alex.

's words. He didn't know how strong Alex was, but he knew he would get punished harshly if something happened to him.

He then turned to the woman, asking for her opinion.

"Sir Alex, how about this: the clan is quite dangerous now. But it should be no problem for you to explore the city."

Alex put some thought into it, then smirked, "Sure, bring me to the market. It's better if it's the best one that has all sorts of items."

"Give me a minute, Sir Alex. I still need to prepare something for our departure."

"What thing? We can just go now."

"Well, before, you could walk in the water as you were going with the princess. But without her going with us, we cannot do that. Otherwise, the guard will begin attacking you."

"You mean they know for sure Princess Reina was with us? Who knows if someone fakes it?"

"No offense, Sir Alex, but who would dare fake it here? It's not like people won't find out."

Alex let out a chuckle, "You are right. Don't forget to bring the money then since I don't have any."

Hearing his shameless request, the man frowned, but he kept his judgment to himself.

The woman then excused herself, leaving both of them alone.

"So, who are you?" Alex asked.

"Just another guard, Sir Alex. No one important," the man replied, as he didn't want to get involved more than needed with Alex. He felt Alex was a person who would bring trouble.
