Alex was back after a few days, and she had left out of the blue the moment Elio vanished from the viscount’s garden.

The entire aftermath was taken care of by the viscount and the Duke’s people, however, this thing still blew up like crazy.

By the time she was back, everyone was talking about what had happened in the viscount’s mansion.

Things were even getting out of hand by the time she was back. There were talks of issuing a gag order, but it wasn’t imposed just yet, so everyone was talking about that incident all around the city and beyond.

Just the fact that the evil beings took over the sole daughter of the viscount was a big news that must have even reached the ears of the Queen and, since there were many spectators at that time, the information of the golden hero who sacrificed himself to save Eve was spreading like a wildfire as well.

“This is a mess…”

When she came back, she first met up with the viscount and got a detailed report of what was happening there.

The viscount also told her how he had obtained a letter from his father asking him to follow Her, so he was being more careful around her at the moment.

He was not someone that would ask him to follow just anyone, so he knew Alex was in fact someone that special.

He had even received a few special letters in secret that she knew about already, but he wasn’t going to tell her about them and she didn’t need to know anything about those things either.

The most concerning thing right now was Elio and his whereabouts.

“Hopefully, master Elio is alright.”

“He’s fine. Don’t say all negative things, Andrew.”

She had put down all kinds of honorifics and was calling him by his name, and he didn’t mind it anymore.

After getting letters from even the Supreme throne, he wouldn’t even dare to guess her identity anymore.

They all had asked to help her for the time being, and he had intended to do that from the start.

Elio had saved not only his daughter, but the entire Cromwell family.

He was indebted to them for his life, and helping them with a few things for the time being wasn’t going to be nearly enough to make up for what they had done for him.

“Alright then. For now, let’s just say he’s dead.”

“Hmm?”

Just a moment ago, she was telling him to not speak negatively, and now she was telling him to announce the great help that had helped the viscount and the Kalp had passed away?

Even though the fact that he was a player was known by everyone?

“I mean, dude… let’s just say he’s dead and the penalty that he received was big so he couldn’t log back for a while.

People will stop asking about him if he isn’t here, and since we will be going soon as well, they won’t really have anyone to ask anything about the great golden hero or whatever they are calling him.”

It was also known that he had used the power of a blessing so this was even more interesting for him since according to what was known about him, he was the same person who had helped the Moongold along with Alex.

He was pretty famous because of the slime and the gecko that he had with him all the time, but now that those creatures were with her instead of by his side, she didn’t know what they were going to do about the little children.

She wasn’t sure if they would stick around with him, but then again, Misha was here. And she was their friend.

If things go well, they should be able to have them with them, but they weren’t their familiars, or servants.

They belonged with Elio and Elio, their master wasn’t here anymore.

They were free to do anything they wanted, but at the very least, since they were going to find him anyway, sticking with them would be more helpful for them.

They were part of his [Family] so being away from for so long wasn’t going to be a good thing.

“The communication doesn’t work even though he is logged in, so he must be in some faraway place. Considering how Sera’s with him, he shouldn’t have any problem at least surviving for the time being and with his food and water supplies, he should be fine even if he’s stuck in some cave or something.

But I’ll still consider the possibility of him dying multiple times in whatever place he’s in and will have to go back to my world more frequently.”

She looked at the viscount with a serious gaze, and placed her hands on the table before them.

“I would have asked you to look after Rin and Misha if I could move on my own, but they belong with Elio as well so I can’t just leave them behind.

That’s why, Andrew.”

She was sitting in the chair that only his father had ever set in so the kind of pressure that he was feeling from her was beyond any level or experience.

“I want you to get rid of the attention that the Kalp has on us.

I don’t care how you do it but we need to get out of this place and for that, we will need to move carefully.

I’ll go back as soon as I meet Misha and Rin and tell them about that bastard, but I’ll be back pretty soon, and when I come back and have any idea of his current location, I want you to keep the transportation medium ready.

We might have to move to the center if needed, so make preparations for that as well.”

She wasn’t asking him, but telling him to do all that.

And in this situation…

“As you wish, Lady Alex.”

He didn’t even have the authority to ask her to be polite.

She was like the deputy of the Monarch of this land at the moment.

Even asking her anything against her wishes would mean treason. And he did not want to go to jail right after getting his little daughter back from those damned evil.

There was so much that he needed to do now that he knew what threats those damned evil could pose to them.

And, he knew he would need her help for that as well.

So…

“Don’t call me with honorifics dude. Just call me Alex. As if we are friends.”

“I’ll do that then.”

He’d do anything if it was for his daughter.

He had almost lost her once but… not again.

He wasn’t strong enough to go through all that one more time, not even as a lord.
