''That just means you really think I am not capable.''
Alex thought in his mind while saying, "I will show you back at the guild.
It''s something you will only believe if you see it."
"Alright, we can go to the guild later.
For now, let''s talk about something else," Emily chimed in, wanting to change the topic.
"Fine, then Alex, why do you call me aunt while you call this chibi big sister?" Quartz asked.
She didn''t really care, but it annoyed her to receive different treatment.
It also made her feel older.
Olivia chuckled upon hearing this, "Just accept your fate, Aunt."
"You chibi, what did you call me?"
"Look, I am Alex''s big sister, and he calls you aunt, so I should call you aunt.
Otherwise, the hierarchy will be weird," Olivia said, laughing.
This made Quartz''s veins pop as she demanded Alex change how he addressed her.
Emily, meanwhile, tried hard to hold her laughter, knowing if she laughed, Alex would start pulling her into the fray.
Luckily, before Alex could say anything, the food arrived, and they then had an enjoyable meal together, lifting Alex''s mood.
It didn''t take long for them to return to SGE.
Alex brought them to the forests behind the facility.
He took out the Awe cube from his storage ring.
Seeing a box appear in his hand surprised Quartz and Olivia.
They knew about the Awe Cube and had even gotten one from Emily.
But to use it, they needed to point and press a button on the dashboard. But before they could say anything, their surprise deepened.
"Come out, Petricia."
A light appeared, materializing into the beautiful high goblin.
Petricia quickly kneeled in front of Alex, "Your order, King." Sёar?h the N?vel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"This is my family, my aunt Quartz and big sister Olivia.
Greet them."
Petricia stood up, then bowed politely toward them.
As a goblin, she was already used to seeing someone at Olivia''s height, so she didn''t find it weird.
Instead, she felt quite tall compared to a normal goblin.
"Greetings, Lady Quartz, Lady Olivia."
At first, she wanted to call them princesses, but Emily had taught her to call others sir and lady.
They often talked about things when Emily visited the goblin kids.
"Alright, that is enough, Petricia. You can return." Alex then called her back to the Awe cube.
Olivia and Quartz still looked at it, stupefied.
They understood the implication of what Alex did, and seeing how the goblin treated him like a king meant she was absolutely loyal.
"Ho... How?" Quartz asked.
Returning to her senses, Olivia walked toward Alex and raised both hands up with open palms.
Alex remembered that gesture.
He looked at Emily, who held back her laughter.
"Good things should be shared with family. Give me one," Olivia said, as if it were common sense.
Emily couldn''t hold it and laughed out loud.
She had learned that saying when she often hung out with guild members.
Her father always said it every time they had an after-party to share the dungeon loot.
The same was true at every holiday or good event; it was like the Suzaku guild motto at this point.
But Alex didn''t know this, so he thought Emily was the one putting Olivia up to it.
But he shook off the thought since he believed Emily wouldn''t tell her about the Awe system.
With a sigh, Alex replied, "I can catch one for you. Just tell me what kind of monster you want."
Olivia grinned, putting her finger over her chin as she thought about what she wanted.
She felt happy.
Alex agreed quickly.
Feeling the glare from Quartz, Alex added, "Of course, you too, Aunt.
You can ask for it, but I think I don''t need to point out we need to keep this system a secret."
Quartz nodded.
She understood the implication of this.
Basically, Alex could have as much military power as he wanted at any time, something unprecedented.
"Don''t worry.
I won''t use it in front of other people.
So, do you have any limitations?
How many can you bring?"
"As many as I catch, Aunt.
That is why I am sure we have a way to go there."
What he needed now was to raise his personal strength and make as many Awe boxes as he could.
"How did you achieve this, Alex?" Quartz asked.
In response to this, Alex took out two low-quality qi crystals and gave them to Olivia and Quartz.
Feeling the energy inside, they realized it was different from Mana.
Alex then told them about the cultivation system, but he still didn''t tell them where he got it or anything about Vesa.
Even though he trusted them, for now, he wanted as few people as possible to know about Vesa.
If not for his hunger, Alex would have hidden it from Emily.
"Both of you can use that to reach the foundation realm.
It should be enough to use the storage ring."
Alex then sighed as this reminded him of the astronomical amount of money he needed to get more high-grade mana crystals.
Looking at Quartz and Olivia, Alex then remembered that he needed many crystals because he was a progenitor.
The cost of doing it for them should be cheaper.
But he quickly shook off the thought; they were not strangers.
He could not just test new methods on them, making them guinea pigs.
Even for strangers, Alex would feel guilty doing it.
It''s better to test it first on some criminals, but Emily had already left her job, and after some further thought, taking them on official missions was not that easy.
The report would check where the body was if it was reported dead.
"It seems I need to do it with my own hands.
Look for some dark hunter to catch."
Emily and Olivia frowned, seeing Alex''s expression.
"Bro, you''re thinking of doing something dangerous again, right?" Emily asked with concern.
Olivia nodded, "I won''t ask where you got all this, Alex, but are you alright?
What kind of danger do you need to face for all this?"
