Noah frowned after hearing Alex’s narration.

Most of the time, he wondered whether it was true or not.

Noah and Wilford felt as if they had heard a ridiculous story from a scammer.

Wilford on the other hand was trying very hard to control his emotions from taking over.

If not for Noah’s repeated reminder, he would have already raised his sword to kill this guy after all these men had single-handedly slaughtered many of the Empire’s men.

His heart was quite bitter at the moment.

He felt as if he was betraying his own nation just by sitting before him.

Noah took a deep breath and asked seriously”Are you telling me that you aren’t screwing with us?”

“Knowing your character, I wouldn’t find it odd that you have already made a mess of Arkham and wreaked havoc on your till here.”

Alex glared at him and scorned him”Is that the impression you have on me?”

Noah nodded with a sceptical look.

“You are correct about that but there isn’t any reason for me to direct my anger at you as it was that bitch organisation filled with bastards that created all the mess and I want to rip that bastard into shreds.”

Noah flinched back and blurted out” Now you are acting like yourself.”

“Now that I have shared my part, tell me how you came out alive. Were you the only one or did you save anyone else.”

Noah’s expression faltered on hearing Alex’s question and he clenched his fist in anger.

Alex waited for Noah to organise the messy thought as he could understand what he was going through now.

“It’s okay Noah. I have also lost some of my men. I don’t exactly how you felt but I felt as if I had betrayed their expectations.”

Wilford patted Noah who heaved a sigh and felt a bit relieved that there was someone who had gone through the same thing.

“Did you remember the locket I have worn?”

“Ohh that flower girl’s locket. It looks quite good on you. “

Noah controls his urges to spout curses and spoke: “It was a one-time life saving artifact if I encountered a danger capable of killing me it would teleport to the place where the other pair was held.”

“Fortunately, my father gave it to me when I went to war and this saved my life.”

“Didn’t your elder brother receive that as you know he is…?”

“Elder Brother isn’t dead?”Noah cut Alex words.

“Your Highness, you can’t…”

Noah raised his hand and stopped him.

“It’s okay. We are in the same boat now.”

“Although we can’t trust him, I trust the Goddess.”

Alex narrowed his eyes and asked what is going on now.

As Noah stated the oracles, veins bulged on Alex’s forehead.

Alex’s expression looked as if he had heard about his archnemesis.

“Those…..” Alex closed his lips to stop himself from spouting curses.

“You mean to say to me, Goddess wanted to lead you to me but your misunderstanding caused the war.”

“Hey, why don’t I crack your skull and send it to Goddess for healing as a part of the misunderstanding.”

Noah’s body shivered as he felt that this guy might do this.

‘I don’t know just what kind of joy they get by speaking in a round out way. They are in a completely different league above me in spouting bull**.’

“My Elder brother is infected by some kind of weird poisoning due to miasma and has become unconscious.”

“I see. I will have a look and see if I can cure him.”

“Thanks!” Noah added after deciding to give Alex a chance.

“Noah, tell me. Since a powerhouse attacked you and tried to kill you. Why aren’t the Supreme ranks on your side making a move? Shouldn’t they look for the person who breaks the contract? Alex asked with a grim expression.

“Alex you might not know, all the top powerhouses of humans recently have a battle and all are greatly injured in that battle. So, most of them are currently recuperating.”Noah spoke with a saddened expression.

“And on top of that, the two powerhouses that appeared are unknown in the history of the world. We don’t have any records on them and they haven’t signed the treaty. After we informed them, they tried to look for them but we couldn’t find them.”

“What can we do when we can’t even find those people?”

“I understand.” Alex shook his head.

Since it was related to the God Of Darkness, they might not even have the base in this world and may have stayed in the Darkness realm and that might be why they haven’t been discovered till now.

“We will find out about them soon,” Alex assured Noah.

“Now, since we exchanged everything. Please tell us what this golden water is. We need it in bulk. We are ready to dispatch all our forces.”

Now, it was Alex’s time to shrink back.

He tried to avert his eyes and spoke softly,”It’s holy water.”

“What!! It’s expensive water.”

“Okay I got it, we will pay you a hefty sum.”

“Damn! It’s not expensive water but holy water.”

Noah and Wilford’s expressions crumble as if they have stepped on some kind of dog**.

“Alex, don’t joke with me.”

“It’s a matter of national interests.”

“It’s holy water.” Alex started to explain to Noah.

“That means except for you and Athena, we could only rely on the Pope and Head Saintess.”

“Can’t even the Saintess of Arkham be of any help?”

“See, I haven’t seen your Saintess nor do I know about her level. We need holy water of strong concentration for this. I have only spoken about what I think.”

“You can explain the problem and ask for their help. I used water in this way because 80% of the clergy’s purifying power can’t penetrate deep into the ground.”

“Okay, I will look into this matter .”

“Now tell me what you want from us.I know, you are not doing this for charity.”

“Let me see your brother first after which I will say.”Alex spoke with a wolfish grin like a scammer who was going to fool someone again.
