Chapter 201: CHAPTER 201 – Another time skip and Recap.
"Are you guys ready?"
Alex asked as he sat behind Alice and Ann who were both sitting cross-legged.
"Yes." X2
Both Alice and Ann spoke with a serious expression.
They knew how important and dangerous the next step was going to be.
After all, they were going to break the limit of this world.
They were going to enter the Epic rank.
..........
It's been around one month since that incident with Blue Empire's Raiders.
In this one month, more and more gates started appearing, and among them, there were 3 SS-ranked gates.
With Blue Empire being powerless, the ones to clear the gate were Alice, Ann, and Alex.
They were the ones who cleared the last SS-ranked gate, after all.
There was news of them being called as saviors.
No one knew who started it, but people started seeing them as saviors, people needed hope, after all.
"At times like this, when odds are not in the favour of mankind, saviors arise, and our saviors are the Crimson Lotus Guild!"
This was the thing that people said.
The Crimson Lotus Guild raiding gates all over the world without charging anything was just a plus to it.
Alex, Alice, and Ann cleared different gates.
Each one of them cleared one gate alone, they were stronger after all, and they were only growing stronger.
Clearing SS-rank gates alone again came out as big news, and there were some people who even started making cults, worshiping the Crimson Lotus Guld, or Alex, Alice, and Ann, to be precise.
The news came and went, and many things got removed from the top list, but the topic that was most trending even now was the Blue Empire incident.
Misty's interview was still the top video on any online platform.
Misty broke during the interview as the interview was taken two days later, and till then, the side effects of Alex's skill were already showing up.
"They were killed by Argon!"
This was the most famous clip, even at this moment.
It was a clip of Misty roaring at a reporter as she kept punching him in the face, with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Is it really true that Argo Hart killed everyone or was it the Crimson Lotus guild that did it and you were bribed by them?"
This was the question that the reporter had asked after Misty told them every detail about the events taking place inside the gate.
Misty, who was already crying couldn't take the fact that not only was the man trying to call her a liar, but he was also trying to put the blame on the people who tried to help her.
Misty started punching that guy with all of her power and she kept beating him even after he was dead.
The bloody scene was recorded on the camera, shown live, and was still the most viewed video.
But one thing was sure, everyone believed in Misty's words after the outburst.
Misty was not taken into custody or put on trial.
"She was not mentally stable at that time." Experience the best from m|v|l|e|mp|y|r
She was left free after this line from her lawyer.
Not many people out there wanted to offend an SS-ranked raider, after all.
Misty was never seen after that, it was like she didn't even exist, but some say that she is staying in an isolated island to recover herself from the trauma.
However, it was not just Misty who was untraceable or unreachable, there was another person who was the same but unlike Misty, he was wanted, right now.
The person was Argon Hart.
The former emperor of the Blue Empire.
The people of Blue Empire were shocked by the news of what happened in the gate, some even thought that it was the move of some of Argon's enemies, but after seeing Misty's interview, they slowly started to believe.
Argon right now had a bounty of 100 million credits over his head, and that was just for telling his location.
He was the strongest Raider in the world, official at least, and who would be confident enough to catch alone?
That's where Alex, Alice, and Ann came to play.
For the last month, they had been moving all over the world, reaching the places where they got the news of his sighting.
But after not finding any clue about his whereabouts the search was called off, the bounty was still there though, just Alex, Alice, and Ann stopped responding to the calls.
"He will come out one day when he thinks he is strong enough to face us, so let's stop the search."
Alex was the one who had said that, and everyone agreed.
Alice and Ann didn't object because they believed that no matter how strong Argon got, he would never be able to leave Alex behind.
During this one-month time, Alice and Ann would get some free time, it was just a small amount of time, but they used that time just for one thing, a very important thing.
'Training' with Alex.
Alex had been privately 'training' them, helping them stronger whenever they got time, causing Alice and Ann to slowly get addicted to this 'training' of Alex.
They grew stronger very fast by this 'training' of Alex, but it took them time to get used to that power.
So, after one month, they were finally at the peak of EX-rank.
But just when they thought that it was the end, that they had reached the top, Alex broke the news to them.
"You have just stepped into the real path of power, girls."
Alex just chuckled when he saw them all happy about reaching the EX-rank peak.
They were happy that there would be no one stronger than them anymore.
But their jaws were left hanging when Alex explained to them about the other world and stuff.
Alice and Ann had some idea about the other words as Alex had told them about it, but they realized just how little they knew.
"The rank after EX is Epic, and you will have to do some things to get to that rank, my 'training' won't get you there."
They had their faces covered with a rosy blush when they heard those words but they soon focused on what Alex had to say, after all, they were being introduced to a brand-new thing.
They realized that they were still a long distance away from reaching the top, but they smiled inwardly as they looked at Alex.
'I just want to be with you….' X2
This was all that they wanted.
Even if they wanted to grow stronger, one of the reasons behind it and the main motivation for them right now was to not become Alex's weaknesses.
So, they listened to Alex as he introduced the new world of power to them…
