Alex and the others arrived at the majestic-looking palace. They were directed into the throne hall where the emperor was waiting.

''Welcome the Black Prince and his companions. Congratulations to lady Sakuya. I've never doubted that you'll succeed; still, you amazed me.'' The emperor started with flattery.

Alex and the others bowed their heads and took seats across from the emperor. Sakuya ignored the emperor's flattery; she did not need such a thing.

The emperor chuckled, seeing Alex's group expression; his eyes momentarily stopped on Saeko, sitting behind Alex as if that place was rightfully hers. Gracier was sitting beside her, looking bored. She hated this kind of meetings the most; if not for her brother's sake, she wouldn't have come. What annoyed Gracier the most was the second prince; since the day they arrived, he had constantly been harassing her, saying he wanted to marry her, love at first sight, so he had said, but Gracier didn't give a damn about this.

Sigh!

Gracier sighed while ignoring the second prince winking at her. She had no time for love right now, she was too young, and even she had the time, a hypocrite like the second prince was not to her liking. She would never date him, no matter what he would offer.

While the second prince was staring at Gracier at Gracier as if he had lost his soul, his older brother was looking at Alex; the first prince, a handsome man, the younger version of the current emperor, stared at Alex in wonder. No matter how many times he thought about it, Alex's accomplishments were like they came straight from fairy tail; he was still processing how awesome this young by six years his junior was. He was grateful that he didn't make the mistake of becoming Alex's enemy. If he had done that, he would probably lose his chance to become the next emperor because Alex was capable of making that happen; not only was he powerful he also possessed a shocking amount of connections that could make one tremble with fear.

The belief that Alex could pull up something like that was solidified when the first prince saw how close his sister was with Alex. If he didn't have a minimum trust in her, if he didn't value Saeko, Alex would have never left her sat behind him. It doesn't matter if they were currently in a meeting with the emperor. Such a simple gesture was akin to admitting that he trusted her to some extent to let her watch his back.

A strange silence descended upon the throne hall until the emperor opened his mouth and requested.

''Can we see the famous katana crafted by our ancestor?"

Facing this request, Sakuya saw no need to decline; therefore, she nodded.

''Sure!" She responded before summoning Masamune. The white katana shone dazzlingly the moment it was unsheathed.

''What a beautiful katana.'' The emperor couldn't help but sincerely praise the exceptional katana the moment he laid his eyes on it; for a brief moment, he even started coveting it, but he quickly pushed these feelings back because he did not want to awaken a dangerous sleeping beast.

''Great katana. It's worthy of Lady Sakuya. I hope you will take good care of such precious katana.'' the emperor said; at the same time, he sent a message to his elders present not to covet this treasure no matter how tempted they might be if not only disaster awaited them once they did it.

Fortunately, none of those weren't greedy enough to say Sakuya must leave their ancestor relic behind, or the consequence would be dire.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the emperor and the elders, Maria and the others girls were forced to leave, leaving only Alex to talk with the emperor.

''I believe this is our second meeting en tête à tête.''

''Yes, this is our second meeting, but I bet you didn't call me here to tell me that. So, please tell me the reason you called me.'' Alex said with a serious face; he was done with joking.

''What do you think of my daughter?'' The emperor shamelessly asked.

''She is exceptional, but you and I knew the reason why you sent her over. I'm not open to such a result, but at least I'll use her. She is okay with my offer, so she'll be leaving with us once it is the time to depart.'' Alex informed the emperor. Although this goal was far from his initial goal, the emperor could only swallow back his words, not daring to twist things for fear of causing irreversible damage to his empire.

''Ok, let's stop talking about that topic. So, tell me what you want?" The emperor changed the subject, moving toward something more important. The reward Alex would get after letting the other empires divide the fallen Holy Crux empire among themselves.

Alex had already talked with Julius, some further discussion would be held once they returned, but the essential part of the deal had been cleared out.

''I want to gain authority over two high-level dungeons, and that forest where the inheritance ground was located, I wanted it too.''

Facing Alex's demands, the emperor of the Far East Empire's mouth twitched; he felt like Alex was exaggerating things, but there was nothing he could do about it, not take a piece of such juicy meat (the fallen Holy Crux empire) would be a huge mistake. Compared to everything they would earn, it was a cheap price to pay; therefore, after a moment of hesitation, the emperor accepted.

Every empire concluded that no matter what they would do, lt would be a huge mistake not to include Alex's part in their negotiations; nobody wanted to have his empire become the second Holy Crux empire; therefore, they decided to compromise. It's where Alex's part comes in.

However, while the emperor of the Far East Empire accepted Alex's conditions, he was confused as to why Alex would ask for something like that; therefore, he asked.

''May I know what you plan to do with that dungeon?"

''I will give it to Saeko as her first gift.'' Alex did not hide his intention as to why he claimed that dungeon.

''It is that so?" The emperor signed, and he understood that he had lost his daughter. With this move, Alex would completely conquer her. Imagine what kind of reaction a fanatic would have once her greatest idol was to gift her something? She would devout her life for her idol, becoming utterly loyal to this idol as the simple gesture of offering her something meant he had acknowledged her entirely.

''You are scary.'' the emperor could not help but says this after a long moment of silence, and Alex chuckled.

''Thank you for the compliment.''
