Alex wondered how much strength the emperor's fists would carry; he could not help but inwardly chuckle. If things go according to the plan, he would soon find out, but first, he would have to deal with those geezers looking at him.
While Alex was thinking about how to deal with the geezer, the emperor of the Lionheart Empire, Leo Zaiden Lionheart, had one desire, which was to test Alex's strength, like his son had said his friend had stepped into the Demi-God realm. Seeing the hidden strength inside the boy's body, there was no wonder Lucius got done in as he was careless. Leo knew there was more to the story, there was something none of them except for Alex knew, and it was not his place to search for an answer as it was evident that Alex wouldn't want to go into the details as to how he accomplished what he did, at least not with a stranger such as him. Leo's only desire was to fight, to exchange blows with this exceptional young man, one of his friends did it (Julius), and he also wanted to do it.
However, now wasn't the time; he must appease those old-timers as he could feel them getting impatient.
'Sigh!'
The emperor sighed inwardly before pointing at the seat in the middle of the hall. Somehow, a seat appeared behind him, and he was completely unaware of it; this made Alex reevaluate the Lionheart's strength; they must be underestimated. Because he destroyed one empire doesn't mean the other empires could easily get destroyed; the Holy Crux empire's demise happened because of their carelessness and series of events that eventually led to their destruction; it was not something he could reproduce easily.
? Without saying anything, Alex took a seat and scanned the hall; only old faces were the only thing he could see; some of them had curious looks in their eyes while some were expressionless; however, most of them had one thing in common, that light in their eyes, the light of someone that couldn't wait but suck their prey dry.
Lowering his head, Alex's lips twitched, and he thought, 'It won't be easy.'
''Alex, do you know why I called you here? Why I called this meeting!"
Finally, the emperor, Leon's father, decided to discuss why Alex had been brought into the throne hall.

Alex nodded his head. ''I'm well aware of the reason for my presence here. I'm here because my sister involuntary destroyed one of your dungeons.''
Leo nodded and was about to say something, but someone acted faster.
''Involuntary or not. It has already happened, so what you need to do right now is to compensate.'' It was one of the elders of the Elder's council.
Leon crossed his arms and watched everything from where he sat. If it wouldn't, because it would have been disrespectful, he would have brought out some popcorn to eat while enjoying the great show that was about to happen.
Leo glared at that elder, but he only sighed but refused to back down; the emperor could only massage his forehead and look at Alex.
''As Elder Timoleon has said, be it was involuntary or not, the damage has been down. What you need to do is to compensate us.''
''As you are aware, dungeons are our biggest source of income, so imagine what would happen when one of them got destroyed? It means losing the money you can get over many years. It's a big loss, and we need to compensate for it somehow.'' Leo added.
Alex nodded; what the emperor said was not wrong; dungeons are a source of income while at the same time serving as grinding stones for the population to get stronger. In the ages when dungeons were the most valuable source of income for kingdoms and empires, losing one of them was like losing a huge amount of money, not only money but also your rank, so he understood their desire to be compensated, and he had never thought of walking away without compensation.
''I understand; what do you want?" Alex asked after a long moment of silence, and during that time, nobody urged him to talk as they knew it must be easy; he had lot of things to think about, so naturally, they should let him take his time until he was ready.
Instead of talking, the one who spoke this time was the oldest of the Elder's council; he was also the prime minister, more than a hundred years older with toned arms and a face full of scars, testimony of his wildlife when he was younger.

Elder Othneil caressed his beautiful white beard, the same hue as his hair, and said.
''Forfeit your percentage over our share in the Holy Crux empire.''
He didn't beat around the bush and directly told Alex what they had decided. Every one of them had their eyes shining, almost as if they couldn't wait for Alex to accept. Gracier destroying a dungeon was God's opportunity to ask Alex not to ask for a percentage of the territory they would acquire in the Holy Crux empire.
And who said territory said dungeons and mines, thinking about getting things without having to pay anything put them in extreme joy.
However, they knew it wouldn't go as they wished, and soon Alex proved that.
''I refuse; I'll give you a 5% discount. This is all I can do.'' Alex refused and immediately made an offer.
Most of the members of the elder's council were furious, and just as they were about to say something, Alex raised his hand, forcing them to stop.
''Let's do this; I know you believe in the saying that fist talks louder than words, right? I want to exchange blow with his imperial majesty.''
Every one eye widened; they wondered if Alex had become crazy to propose something like that; no matter how strong he had become, he might be the youngest Demigod, but thinking of challenging their emperor was tantamount to committing suicide; however, they could wait to hear what he had to say.
Leon covered his mouth because if he didn't do it, he would have been unable to kill his laugh. He had expected his friend to pull out something crazy but not something like this; he couldn't help but glance in his father's direction, and seeing the wide grin on his face, Leon knew even without hearing what his friend had to say, his father had taken the bait, he had fallen into Alex's trap.
''Okay, let's hear your proposition,'' Leo said.
