Chapter 423 421:Hidden Rats 2

When the war all around the world began, Alex took his time to read about the Dark Elves and Demons.

Just like Elves, Dark Elves had eight noble clans whose bloodline was said to be blessed by the God Darkness a thousand years ago.

Alex didn't know whether it was true or false but seeing Moss who belongs to the Azure clan as shown in the Eyes of truth, pulled his interest greatly.

The moment he sensed the darkness blessing, Alex just wanted to rip the girl apart but he calmed his mind and thought of a devilish trick.

He didn't know whether he could pry any information or not but it was worth a try.

Moss with beads of sweat sliding down her face appeared outside the city and was welcomed by arrows of ice.

She pulled her short sword and slashed the ice arrows.

"Sir!" Moss narrowed her eyes and raised her weapon while Alex snuck behind her and kicked her.

Moss rotated her short sword and blocked the kick with it but the fierce coercion made her stumble and threw her back.

Moss rotated her body and landed on the ground with an uneasy heart.

"It was just a test."

"You are sent to deal with a guy who is close to Mythic rank so I wondered why they send a useless minion like you."

Moss bit her lips and lowered her head with shame.

"Before I speak anything, I wanted to ask what your position is in the organisation," Moss asked.

Moss felt a suffocating pressure slamming her down that made it difficult to breathe.

"I am under the disguise and do you think you are worthy enough to know my position."

"Do you want to die? If I kill you no one from your Azure Clan would bother to seek trouble with me."

"You are mistaken to think that I am at an early Legendary rank. Is it possible for a person in this rank to defeat that thing?"

"You can't even see past my level and you dare question me?"

Moss trembled in fear and was pressed down further by Alex's words.

Loyalty and order were absolute in the organisation.

If the person before him belonged to a higher order, he was already benevolent enough not to kill her.

"What is your rank now Moss?"

"I am a Second rank! You don't know about it?" Moss spoke with a confused expression.

"Do you think I have the time to keep tabs on you? It's just a coincidence that we met."

"Did you know where you are wrong?"

Moss bites her lower lips as she sees the man scrutinising his gaze on her filled with animosity.

"I...I"

"I have a rough hint of your mission and do you think there was no better way to accomplish this?"

"If that creature had got out and wreaked havoc, our plans and existence might have come to the limelight." Alex pressed her which almost made her body shook

"What was your mission?"

"We were ordered to implant seeds of darkness and then distribute darkness pills to the noble and after they achieved their purpose, we need to get rid of them or the other side."

Alex tried his best to hold his expression. Even though his expression was almost blank and indifferent, he was shaken from the inside.

Seed of darkness...Darkness pill.....

Alex murmured slowly trying to process the information.

He doesn't know a damn thing about the seed of darkness but he guessed the darkness pill might be used to get rid of someone or especially their pawns.

Since demons had captured the borders and Arkham is in ruins, they don't need the pawns anymore.

It was time to get rid of them.

Alex wasn't sure about who the other party was but he swallowed his saliva.

Alex calmed himself and spoke.

"You were ordered to get rid of them not to expose them. You should deliver that thing just before the other party makes an appearance but you just delivered them hours ago."

"With your measly strength, can you even scratch it?" Alex spoke with a cold voice and glared at her.

Moss blinked her eyes and pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Sir, shadow creatures can't hunt us. Though we can't control them, they also can't overpower us due to the power of darkness, don't you know?"

Alex wasn't perplexed and just nodded his head formally and spoke"I know but I forget due to the span of a moment. I am human after all and didn't receive the blessing till now."

"I understand!" Moss muttered and lowered her head clumsily while staring at Alex with reverence.

Alex's brows furrowed seeing her looks.

'Why is she looking at me as if I am her idol? Did I press some weird buttons on her?'

'Don't tell me my bullshit worked. I know I am the master of bullshitting still it works.'

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Sorry!"

"Stop spouting sorry again and again. It makes you look pathetic."

"Ah!Yes!"

"It's just that, only talented humans like you could use the darkness element without blessings. Going through that heart-wrenching experiment is not something one could imagine. Only six of you exist in the whole organisation."Moss spoke excitedly like a fan girl.

"That's right." Alex nodded his head proudly.

He got another shocking piece of information.

'So, Cherry is not the first.'

Alex's eyes were drawn for a moment as he heard about the experiment and a very disturbing thought came into his mind.

'What if Riya is also a part of the experiment and asked by some means?'

Alex's expression became worse and shook his head to get rid of it.

"Now leave, don't waste my time any further."

Moss glanced at Alex for a moment and bowed her head with gratitude and turned back to leave but she was startled by a sudden tap on the shoulder.

"Can you give me one darkness pill?" Alex asked coldly.

"But Sir, I have to deliver them and finish the mission. It would hamper my mission and I may be punished even if I belong to the noble Dark Elves lineage."

Moss tried to persuade but her body stiffened and a strong pressure bore on her shoulder as Alex tightened his hold causing her to fall onto her knees.
