''You have been unconscious for a month.''

Silveria responded to Alex's question.

Alex spat out a sigh. It was as he feared, he stayed in the coma for one month. It almost time for the Imperial Magic Academy to start the enrollment for new students. He only has a couple of days left.

Turning his head in Leena's direction, Alex wanted to ask her a question, however as if she had read his mind and knew what he was wanted to ask, Leena, replied.

''Boy, you only have one week. From here to the capital it will take five days even with the fastest carriage. So, I suggest you depart as soon as possible. As for me, I will be leaving today, what will you do?" 

Alex pondered for a moment before he replied. 

''We will depart tomorrow.'' 

''Good decision.'' 

Silveria looked bored, she was not surprised by Alex's decision, she would have chosen to leave tomorrow as well. No need for any preparation, nor they had some unfinished business here. 

''So, what happened after I fell unconscious?"

Alex raised a question and naturally this question was directed at Silveria. 

''Well, just after you fell unconscious, to not let my dear master die, I appeared, frightened the monster flee. I let him go to tend your injuries. After I was done, Leena came and with her help, we moved you two back. Gracier woke up the next day while you, well you did today, after one month. To summarize that's what happened.'' 

Alex watched Silveria spout lies without batting an eyebrow. Leena's face twitched when she saw Silveria smirking at her. 

Chuckling Alex didn't say anything as he could probably guess why Silveria acted like that, she doesn't want to tell the truth in front of Leena. Leena may be their ally, but this doesn't mean that they should spill their secrets in front of her. It's not a wise thing to do. 

''I see. What I want to know is whether or you know why that monster was particularly after us?" 

Silveria's playful smile stopped the moment she heard Alex's question. With a serious face, she told Alex the information the two had gotten. 

After digesting Silveria's words Alex said, his voice was so cold that it sends a chill down to Leena's spine, while in response to Alex's cold voice Silveria simply grinned. 

''I see. So that's why. I must thank the man that generously sends a AA monster to greet me. My greetings mustn't be less than his. In fact, mine must be grandiose.'' 

Finally, Leena spoke after hearing Alex's words. 

''Boy, what are you planning to do? Directly go confront the one that wants to kill you?" 

''Ah? I'm not an idiot. Even if we know the gender of the person behind the attempt of assassination. We do not know his face nor we do know his true name. What position he occupied on the demon continent. Only death awaits me if I charge there recklessly without a concrete plan.'' Alex explained. As he said he needs to know the other party's identity, his strength, and other essential things before planning anything. What if he recklessly charges over there and finds out that the person who ordered to eliminate them was the current emperor? Well, if it happens then, he was good as dead, therefore he must know what he's after to be prepared. 

''Good. At least you are aware of your shortcomings. You should be prepared before going after the other party because he is strong I can at least say this much. As for who he's I don't know.'' Leena praised Alex before suggesting that he must be prepared before moving to complete his revenge. 

''You don't know at least for now that should be the correct word.'' Alex corrected Leena's words. 

Silveria smiled while Leena was amused,

''What makes you say that?" 

Alex rolled her eyes while saying, ''Let's not play this game. I just want you to tell me what you learned once your men collected information from the other side.'' 

''You are sure interesting. No problem I'll tell you, however, isn't going to be free. You'll owe me a favor.'' Leena replied to his demand with a business smile, she did not forget to ask something in return. 

''Tch! As my backer, you should at least pretend to do it for free.'' Alex spat. 

''Fufufu, I must consider my men's feelings, what they will go through to collect those information. Some may die while completing this task and you want me to tell you everything for free? Your jokes aren't funny at all. Even if it was my father, I won't tell him for free. So, Alex boy what will you do?" 

Clicking his tongue for the second time since he woke up, Alex said. ''I get it. However, let me warn you first I will not do anything too dangerous.'' 

Leena smiled at Alex's words, and without his warning, she knew that she mustn't ask something unreasonable, Silveria was looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. That smile meant 'I'm watching you, so don't go overboard.'

''Don't worry. It's nothing serious.'' Leena said.

''I see. It's deal then.'' Alex said, then he shook Leena's hand. 

''Well, it's nice to see you back. I'll be going. Ah! I almost forget here is your new guild card. Congratulation for becoming D Rank Adventurer in less than a month.'' 

Leena who stood up and was preparing to leave stop and hand over to Alex, his new guild card, Gracier had already received her card. 

Alex took the light green card and played with it before storing it away. 

By the way, guild card colors are classed like this. 

F= Light grey

E= Grey

D= Light Green

C= Green

B= Cyan color

A= Light Red

AA= Red

S= Light Purple

SS= Purple 

SSS= Crystal black

''Thank you. How can I contact you once in the capital?" Alex asked while seeing Leena off. 

''Conrad, will tell you,'' Leena said before continuing to move forward. 

''Conrad?" Alex asked confused, he did not understand why the name of Conrad was mentioned. Could be that- 

Before Alex could think about why Conrad's name was mentioned, Leena explained to him. 

''Ah! I forget to tell you. He will be the one accompanying you to the capital. To put it simply, he will be your driver. Be ready tomorrow you will depart tomorrow at 10 am.''

''I see. I understand we will be ready by then. See you in the capital.'' Alex told her just when she was about to go down. 

Leena did not immediately answer, she turned her face in his direction to ask a question, 

''By the way, did you need my help to find the traitor, the demons were after?" 

Hearing her question, Alex shook his head while saying, 

''No need, I'll figure out on my own. I already have an idea of who she might be.'' 

''Oh? Care to share it?" Leena asked with a chuckle. 

''I can tell you but it gonna cost you a favor.''

Alex said with a playful smile on his face.

Leena was surprised for a moment before chuckling,

''No thanks, I think I'll pass. You are sure interesting. See you soon. I'm waiting to see what interesting things you're going to do over there. Say hi! to Gracier for me. Tell her that I have already left. Bye.'' 

Leaving those words behind she disappeared, watching her back Alex sighed before going back to his room where he spotted a Silveria happily eating Ice cream.

''So, now tell me everything that happened after I have fallen unconscious.'' 

Silveria sighed before putting away her Ice cream. She told Alex everything, how she requested her Big sister's help, how she finally agreed to help them, he killed the monster using his body, the backlash from using power beyond his current coupled with the backlash from using Overdrive Limit Break level made him unconscious for one month. 

''I see. I must thanks her then. By the way what happened to my right eye did I-" Alex started to speak after hearing the whole story, however, he was stopped by Silveria who brought out a small mirror. 

''It'd be faster if you see it yourself,'' she said and hand over the mirror to him. 

Alex took and removed the eye patch covering his right eye, staring at the mirror what he saw left him speechless. 

''What the fuck? Why my right eye has become blue?" 

Seeing Alex's reaction, Silveria smiled before responding, ''Well, I was surprised when I first saw it. It's a gift from Big sister.'' 

''A gift, you say?" Alex asked while still looking at his right blue eye, somehow this eye gives him a pretty dangerous feeling.

''Yes, a gift. A pretty big gift. It's one of her eyes, a really special eye. More special than Gracier's eye. You'll be surprised once you know what it can do.'' 

''More special than Gracier's eye?" Alex asked eyes filled with disbelief. 

''Well, for now, please check your status, you'll see,'' Silveria suggested. 

Alex put the eye patch and the mirror on the bed and decided to check his status, even without her asking him, he was itching to check his status after he woke up as he could feel the power coursing through his body. 

'Status'' he mumbled as a small window appeared right before his eyes. Alex's eyes almost fell from their sockets when he saw his new status.
