nAfter Golfak uttered these words full of confidence in his victory, he started walking towards the outside of the guild.

nSpitting out a sigh, Alex followed and went through the door to the outside.

nOn the way, Gracier joined him. Face full of smile, she said ''Big brother is going to get another sword for his collection.''

nHearing his sister's words, Alex's face couldn't help but twitch.

nOuch*

n''You little girl, did you think I'm keeping these weapons as a collection?

"

nAlex asked after giving Gracier a light chop over her head.

nRubbing her head Gracier asked, ''Isn't that the case? Diaz and his men's weapons are still with you. So, I thought you might want to keep them as your trophies.''

n''You are right. I haven't sell them. I will soon, I didn't sell them previously because I was busy.''

nAlex explained before finally looking at Golfak who had already positioned himself ready for the duel.

n'How eager are you to lose?' Alex asked himself while also taking a position not too far from Golfak.

n''Now, ready your weapons.''

nThe receptionist acting as the referee said.

nSurprisingly it was Nyora who was acting as referee today not Leena as Alex had thought.

nSearching through the gathering crowd, Alex finally spotted the one he was looking for, Leena was sitting on the first row, Gracier was sitting beside her. The strange thing was Leena was brought out popcorn and the two were happily eating.

nNoticing Alex's stare, Leena smiled before slowly muttered, ''Make it enjoyable.''

nAlex's lips twitched when he read her lips.

nShaking his head Alex turned to face Golfak. He didn't summon any weapon, the crowd was astonished, Leena was looking at Alex with interest.

nOne must know that Golfak can't be called weakling because, among the E Rank Adventurers, he was one of the strongest, and currently Alex was planning to fight him barehanded.

nSome Adventurers thought that Alex was getting full of himself while Leena had another opinion. She knew that Alex will win without any doubt even when fighting against Golfak, a Level 25 barehanded because if a seasoned veteran were to look at Alex in the eyes, he

/she would see the power in them, a sleeping dragon in process of awakening.

nAnd who could a dragon use its full power when fighting against a goblin? No, the dragon will disdain to do this.

nSame with Alex, he saw no use in taking out a weapon to fight against Golfak.

nLeena smiled in anticipation because since Alex's return from his three days expedition, he became more mysterious. Leena couldn't Appraise him any longer, it not that it was impossible to know if she wanted but she'll undo some seal if she wanted to, something she deemed unnecessary. Leena was well aware of the reason for her failure to Appraise Alex, it was due to the small earrings that appeared on him since his return.

n'You are sure full of surprise. To think you'll have an artifact that can block Appraisal skill.'

nLeena mumbled while enjoying her popcorn still waiting for the match to start.

n~Back to Alex and Golfak.

nHaving seen that Alex was not planning to use a weapon against him, Golfak's face darkened, he felt insulted.

n''Are you perhaps making fun of me?

"

nGolfak asked with visible anger on his face. Some of the Adventurers were also wondering this.

nSmiling Alex just said three words ''Fight Or Scram.''

nGritting his teeth, Golfak readied his Magic sword he had previously taken out its sheat.

nAlex took out a pouch containing 10 Gold coins and gave it to Nyora who confirmed the contain.

nPassersby gathered around curiously, Golfak's original goal was to embarrass Alex in front of the crowd, this couldn't be more obvious.

nHowever, because some people had heard of a similar exchange where Diaz and his men, an E group Adventurers had disgraced themselves, the looks that Golfak was expecting were directed at him instead of Alex.

n''Ready? Go.''

nNyora gave the signal.

nNobody made a move. Staring at Alex's hand where there was the fake storage ring, Golfak's eyes shined with greed as he licked his lips.

n''So, this is the famous storage ring?

"

nAlex ignored Golfak as he focused on the latter Magic sword while thinking.

n'As expected, his excessive confidence is steamed from this magic sword. I do not think that it's a magic sword that a rank E adventurer should have. Where did he obtain it?'

nAs for the magic sword that Golfak had, the black blade suddenly gave a crimson glow. Golfak must have activated it by pouring his magic power into it.

n''Here I come.''

nGiving a short cry, Golfak kicked the ground and swung down his magic sword.

nHowever, the speed at which the sword was handled was slow, no, it was to the extent it could be called sluggish. It wasn't skillful (compared to Larry's swordsman who died) and had no strength behind it.

nIt was certainly powerful enough if you considered an E rank adventurer. However, compared to the time Alex fought with the rare species goblin who was wielding a normal sword, Golfak current attacks, Alex could easily evade them while yawning.

nAlex dodged Golfak's attack with a minimum maneuver, the crowd was astonished.

nGolfak's expression turned ugly, others may have not noticed it, but he who was fighting against Alex knew that the latter was dodging his attacks without any effort, it was like a child play to him, he was even yawning as if to tell Golfak to work harder if he wants to make him go serious.

n'I may have made a mistake. However too late to go back. I much use my special move to finish this up.' Golfak thought before pouring more MP into the Magic sword who greedily sucked it.

nCross Slash

nGolfak shouted and activated his skill, a crossed shaped red lights were sent in Alex's direction.

nSmiling Alex kicked the ground and disappeared, everyone was astonished.

nAlex reappeared behind the shocked Golfak and when the latter became aware of Alex's presence it was already too late. He heard Alex's cold voice.

n''Sleep.''

nOnly one word and,

nBam!

nGolfak received a hard chop on his neck, he got pummeled onto the ground, he instantly blacked out.

nSilence filled the venue. The crowd was still trying to comprehend what just happened, Alex disappeared and bam! Golfak was Koed with one hit.

n''Alex must have used that mysterious movement skill again.'' One of the Adventurers shouted and most of them shared this thought.

nHowever, someone refuted this theory.''You're wrong. He did not use any skill. It's just his speed alone.'' It was Gale, one of Eria's City B Rank Adventurer.

n

"What? Unbelievable. This guy is a monster. How fast does he progress?

" another Adventurer asked.

nBeing told that by the famous Gale, most Adventurers nearby believed in his words.

n'I wonder as well, this young man is sleeping dragon in the process of awakening, I wonder what he went through to become like this.' Gale asked himself.

nLeena and Gracier were happy with Alex's swift victory. The former smile widened because with this fight she judged Alex's Rank to be Rank 4, his Level between 35 and 38.

nIf Alex were to hear Leena's conclusion he would be surprised because she was not fair from the guess.

nAfter storing Golfak's Magic sword and the Gold coins he gave Nyora earlier into his Item box, Alex left with his sister to complete a Wind Wolves subjugation request.

nBefore leaving Alex was forced to gave Nyora and Karen money to buy something. They wouldn't have let him go otherwise, they said it was to celebrate his overwhelming victory.

nBy the way, Golfak was still unconscious when the two left, maybe it was because the loss of his prided Magic sword was too hard to swallow reason why he refused to wake up, refused to face the cruel reality where his Magic sword was no more.

n.....

nIt was late in the afternoon when Alex and Gracier returned to the Moonlight after completing the Wind Wolves subjugation request.

nAlex's Level went to 38 while Gracier became Rank 3, Level 25 to be more accurate.

nAlex had gifted Larry's storage ring to his sister and before gifting it away he stored the content away, inside his Item box. He was happy with the content of the storage ring, Larry was sure Young Master, a healthy one at that. Alex saw two White gold coins (400 Gold coins), 40 Gold coins, and more than a hundred Silver coins. Alex had a small fortune at the moment. There also a bunch of stuff inside the ring, High-grade Healing potion, and High-grade Recovery Potion, a medium-grade Magic sword, and a bunch of clothes, Alex threw them away while conserving the other things.

nWhen Silveria remember what excuse Alex used when his sister asked him where the ring came from, she couldn't help but pity Larry, if he was present and heard Alex's shameless words he would have coughed blood and die from a heart attack on the spot.

nAlex's story went on like this.

n'On the second day of his expedition, he encounters a kindred spirit gifted him the storage ring. At the start he vehemently refused, however, the latter party insisted, he still refused until he was forced to accept against his will because the other party started weeping, tears of blood started to fall from the other eyes as he continued to cry. Scared to see the man die of blood loss, Alex finally accepted. Alex said that Gracier must have seen the other party's face when he accepted, he was so happy that he hugged him and even thanked him.

nWhether Gracier believes Alex or not was another story, however, Silveria had the feeling that Gracier did believe in her Big brother nonsense.

n〖What an interesting brother-sister pair.〗Silveria thought.
