Xeander scratched his head and showed an embarrassed smile to the cold and scrutinizing gaze of the Master of the Raven.

"You better explain what you said earlier clearly… this is no joking matter, what do you take the Empire's War challenge to be…. Hmph

"

By now Lady Elektra's tone has changed to a more strict and severe one.

Xeander could only reply in a bashful tone.

" We only want you to spread a baseless rumor, nothing serious …. and mainly to the spies of the alliance government, especially the spies of the Lomab family…

"

Lady Elektra closed her eyes as if pondering something. After a minute she opened her eyes again, her beautiful blue eyes seemed like the gaze of a ferocious predator which can see through even the minute details of its prey.

Xeander gulped unknowingly and his back started sweating, he had heard his master and other seniors mention that the master of Raven is not someone that should not be offended or schemed against.

Xeander was beginning to explain the whole matter in detail since he hadn't gotten time to explain everything properly and the master of Raven had gotten serious and angry before he could say the whole thing. But the lady stopped him again with her hand and spoke.

"Let me get this right, you want the Raven to leak information to the Lomab family that your boss and his company will be participating in the Empire's war challenge…. Hmph…

And I guess this must have something to do with the Lomba family trying to hunt down your boss at any cost...right

"

Xeander was relieved that the lady had calmed down and retreated her fierce gaze and sipped her cup of tea elegantly again before continuing.

"You and your boss think that you can lure the Lomba family alone into the war challenge and use this as a chance to make a name for yourself and announce that the rebel base is still strong.

Looking at the fact that the Lomba family is sparing no cost to hunt down your major … hmm.. the Lomba family even forced the Alliance government to give the full authority of dealing with your Major, I have also gotten the intel that the family head of the Lomba family had an argument with the Alliance President for not informing them about your Boss and company taking down that Maveth flower extraction facility… hmm..

That means the enmity between your Boss and the Lomba family is so deep that they won't allow anyone to come in between their vengeance … or… Your boss has some secret that the Lomba family doesn't want anyone else to know…

"

Xeander was startled at this conclusion but didn't show it on his face and cursed in his mind

" No wonder even master seemed a little wary when talking about this Lady… she had already suspected that there is something fishy going on..

"

With a humble bashful smile he was going to explain when the lady waved her hand again and continued.

" I don't care what your boss's secret is, he seems to have too many apparently.

As long as his actions don't go against the interest of the rebel forces and the king, I don't care.

This time your idea seems to be feasible, you can even withdraw if things don't go according to your plan since it is just a baseless rumor that we spread .

But have you considered everything, even if the Lomab family is lured in , do you think they are someone easy to deal with… If my guess is right, then if the Lomba family makes a move, the person who will be leading their forces would be Maxwell Lomba; he is a cunning fox and someone who is at the peak of the True warrior realm.

Don't compare him with the good for nothing younger brother of his, The elder brother is a genius of the current younger generation.

But I guess if you, along with your boss, were to appear in the war challenge, it won't be impossible to finish the first stage at least… hmm… I guess I will help you this time… but you people better be prepared because once you enter the challenge there will be no turning back ....

"

Xeander nodded with a serious face

" Thank you for helping us out this time , Don't worry Lady raven, I have experienced the pain and humiliation once, I will never let it happen a second time…

"

Lady Elektra had a smile that was not a smile on her face when heard the replay and saw Xeander's serious face and the calmness in his eyes.

" It's good to see that the young war god didn't completely die away in that incident… I can feel the brewing of a big storm that will arrive soon, I wonder what would be the outcome this time..

"

She pondered in her mind while Xeander took his leave.

It wasn't long before Xeander also returned to the Earth base with the universal resonance pill and the tested body enhancement serum, he has been waiting in the secret facility for the scientist to test out the available vials of the body enhancement serum and to everyone's surprise the results were much better than they expected.

In fact the scientist had found that the serum was much advanced and effective than they had initially thought of. The Old Lady Catherine, the leader of the scientist and researcher even put forward the theory that, it is very much possible that the serum had included many precious herb extract in a specific combination that , each individual ingredient when combined started resonating with each other, just like a warrior would resonate with the universe itself when entering the True warrior realm and the person who take the serum would find it much easier to resonate with the universe when entering the True warrior realm.

Old Lady Catherine even concluded that this serum must have been the result of thousands and thousands years of research and experimentation of the ancient civilization and she would need more time to completely understand the effects of the serum.

But since the serum didn't show any negative effect and was deemed good to be taken by warriors, Xeander was provided with 100 vials, while the rest were confiscated by the Old lady.

Even Though he was promised 200 vials the Old lady was not ready to listen to anyone not to Lady Elektra or the council, as one of the lead scientists and someone greatly respected by everyone in the rebel community, they could never force the Old lady.

In Fact Xeander was grateful that he could at least snatch the 100 vial from the Old Lady with her attitude.

After arriving at the Earth base he summoned the higher ups of the young dragon company Old Zhao, Lieutenant Mark, Chow and Levi.

They had a meeting in Dror's office as usual.

When Xeander revealed the rewards that they had gained this time, all of them were shocked so much that Levi even asked Chaow to pinch him.

Xeander distributed the 5 pills, but Old Zhao, who was one of the people who was supposed to receive the pill didn't take it and even stopped his student Chaow from taking it.

Xeander was not surprised at this, Old Zhao was someone who was very close to entering the True warrior realm especially after healing all his old injuries, it was only a matter of time before he entered the True warrior realm by himself.

Even Though Old Zhao didn't take the universal resonance pill he didn't shy away from the body enhancement serum.

After distributing the pills and serum, Xeander slowly put forward the second matter of joining the war challenge, which was very sensitive to Old Zhao.

Even Though Old Zhao was against the whole matter from the beginning, after listening to Xeander for some time he calmed down and in the end agreed to participate if everything went according to their plan.

Of Course Xeander didn't reveal the second part of the plan that Dror was working on to any one including the rest of his team mates for now.

While Dror's long journey was going smoothly.

...

At the same time the only people who were frustrated were the Alliance government and one family in particular.

In the Lomba mansion Manuel Lomba the head of the Lomba family was gnashing his teeth while listening to his subordinates report.

"Useless … all of you useless bastards get out of my sight…

"

He slapped the handle of the chair while yelling at his subordinate.

Maxwell who was listening from the side also had a serious expression on his face as he pondered.

After pondering for some more Maxwell spoke up.

" Father, I think we are missing something, I think that barbarian has some secret technique to completely disguise his appearance and aura, he is too careful and uses it often, which is why we are unable to gain any clue related to his appearance anywhere even from the past..

"

Manual snorted

" I am also of the same opinion, but what can we do under the current circumstances …. and by now he must be hiding in the rebel base…

"
