Chapter 36 Mysterious Person

Aizel awoke in the morning, went to take a bath, made breakfast for himself and Alora, and then went straight to the Xelgar.

The first thing he did was go straight to the children's room to check on them. Emma quickly opened the door and hugged him again. He was still puzzled as to why this girl was so attached to him.

"Let's go, guys. Let's have breakfast, and then we'll go to Daisy's." While the children quickly followed Aizel to the breakfast table at the restaurant, they were eager to play with their new friend Lily.

Aizel took them to the Daisy Shop after breakfast. He asked Daisy about the various potions he was carrying in the storage ring while the kids went with Lilly.

He pulled out three different-colored potions. The colors seem to be blue, red, and white.

Daisy sensed with her mana that they were potions of three different kinds. She understood what he was asking.

"The blue potion is an energy potion. It is useful for mages who are running low on core energy. It takes time for mana to replenish the core's lost energy. The red one is rage potion, which, as the name suggests, gives a temporary boost to strength, and the white one is the rare one."

"It's known as a mind potion. It aids in concentration and mental consciousness. Many mages prefer to use illusion or mental attacks."

"How did you get that one? It's only available in big cities or small towns." Daisy asked while Aizel stared at the mind potion with greed.

"I guess I got lucky because Larisa had it in her storage ring," Aizel said, while his thoughts were on the mind potion.

"This is it; this can help me strengthen my mental core. If it helps in strengthening the mental consciousness, then it may also help for the mental core."

"If you're going on the goblin raid, Aizel, you should keep something in mind. The Rosewell family arranged it. They are one of the noble families, along with the Paul family." Daisy said while Aizel listened. He wanted to know more information about the raid.

"They don't care about anyone and will only look for benefits. You must try to escape if you believe your life is in danger or something is wrong. And try not to show too much strength in front of them; they also feared the mages, who are stronger and more difficult to control." Daisy reminded him about the nobles and their ways.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Daisy; I'll remember that." Aizel spoke while Daisy smirked a little.

He left the kids there after a brief conversation and went near the hunters guild. Today was the day he was going on a hunt with Alisha and her squad. They needed to work together, and Aizel needed to see how strong they were.

He was already aware that they were not Grade I mages, and he also wished to cover up his strength in the upcoming raid. It would be preferable if he simply hid behind his team and assisted them in clearing the raid.

"You're already here." Alisha's arrival with Lucas and Harry interrupted his train of thought.

"Good morning, big brother," Harry spoke as his eyes sparkled; it appears that this guy regards Aizel as a hero or something.

"Don't call me big brother; call me Aizel," Aizel spoke up, and Harry nodded.

"Where are we going to hunt?" Aizel inquired as Alisha turned to face Lucas.

"We're going to assist someone in completing the mission that was assigned," Lucas said with a serious look on his face.

"And who is it, Lucas? You haven't even told us about the mission." With a stern expression on her face, Alisha said. Clearly, she was irritated that Lucas was keeping the mission details from them.

"You'll find out soon enough, so let's get started. The person is waiting for us." Lucas stated as he began to walk towards the town exit. Meanwhile, Harry, Alisha, and Aizel exchanged a few glances before following Lucas.

"He's hiding something; I should be more careful and prepared if things don't go as planned." In the end, Aizel thought while moving carefully.

As they approached the forest zone, they noticed a single person dressed in a brown robe and hood standing alone. Aizel was also dressed in Larisa's dark red-black cloak.

Aizel looked surprised as the person removed the hood.

"You've got to be kidding me; if you wanted to go hunting together, you could have just asked me," Aizel said.

"Well, since you said you were busy, I figured I'd just hire you guys to help me with something." The person responded while Alisha stared at Aizel for an explanation.

"Her name is Leah." As soon as they heard her name, the trio turned to face her in fear.

Lucas, Harry, and Alisha all bowed quickly. "I'm sorry, Miss Leah, we didn't recognize you."

This time, it was Aizel who was perplexed as Leah moved forward and extended her fist for a fist bump.

"My name is Leah Rosewell, and I am the Rosewell family's oldest daughter."

"So, why did you hide these details yesterday?" Aizel inquired, wary of her intentions. When it comes to Noble, he must be on high alert.

"If I had told you yesterday, you might have acted differently. This is how people behave in front of a noble."

Aizel was strangely silent. But he knew she was correct; if he had known she was a noble, he might have tried to leave her alone to fight the monkey king.
