Chapter 1338 You are famous
Eldrin continued talking about the plans he had for the settlement including a detailed point system that would motivate the population to level up faster and pursue excellence. Most of it was just policies adopted by their clan and Liam did not argue with him because his ideas were sound and currently their settlement was a lot smaller than Eldrin's clan.
Besides, he had never been interested in dealing with the administration side of the guild. That part was always Alex's forte and his wife seemed to be currently silent regarding everything.
"Hmmm?" Liam looked at her and wordlessly raised a brow, signaling if she was okay with everything that was happening.
Alex instantly became flustered and her cheeks reddened from the attention. She then quickly nodded. "I think these are good ideas too." She blurted out loudly.
Everyone turned to give her an odd look which turned up the nozzle from embarrassment to anger. She shot back with deathly glares and the group quickly paid attention to the elf again.
Eldrin awkwardly cleared his throat. "As I was saying, the system is a pretty tricky well, system. Things have to be organized in a certain way for the system god to throw more events and treasures our way."
"Apart from the treasures that our world.. Ahem… I mean your world would give birth naturally, these additional treasures would go a long way in creating powerhouses."
"Alright. Continue what you are doing then." Liam gave the green signal to the elf who let out a sigh of relief. He was about to get up and leave when the elf quickly spoke up again.
"My Lord, there is also another thing. The more important thing. There is a reason why I started spreading rumors that you were dead. Your enemy has started making moves in your absence."
Eldrin suddenly pulled out a few information crystals from his spatial ring. "These are some intelligence reports that I gathered. Though not directly from the high priestess or even the divine temple itself, several inquiries have been made about you in these last five years."
Eldrin then hesitated and coughed up another interesting nugget of information. "My Lord, you are quite famous."
"At least three different factions are hunting for you actively and many other factions have shown a lot of interest in you. Ahem. The elves are also among these interested parties."
Before Liam could say anything Eldrin quickly added. "But worry not my Lord, almost everyone thinks you are dead at the moment."
"Huh?" Liam had already expected the first part but he was confused about the second part.
"Apparently the 'prison' you were locked up in also cut off your presence, your aura, your mana signature, your karmic threads, everything about you, almost like you were really dead."
"I have also been keeping track of any information about you personally, not leaving any of the information networks and they all claim you have died in Nymphomania."
"They also claim that it is all one big plot by me, your faithful loyal servant. Ha ha ha. Idiots. As if I could ever betray you."
Liam stared at the elf who awkwardly chuckled and closed the topic. "My Lord, I have filled you in on everything. I will take my leave now and not disturb you any further." Without looking back, the guy quickly scurried away.
Liam continued staring at the disappearing figure when Alex sighed and came over to sit next to him. "He looks shifty and everything he does seems to have some sort of ulterior motive but he has been good to us and the guild so far."
"Ya. I know." Liam nodded. Ever since he first met him, the damn elf had always been this way. He was cunning to the core and yet he came through at clutch times and gave enough reason for Liam to keep him around.
Liam let out a sigh and then turned to Rey, Madan, and Lan Deming. "What do you guys plan on doing? I am assuming you are planning to return to your sister and father?"
Unexpectedly, Lan Deming immediately shook his head. "No. I will be staying here with you. If that is okay. I will also bring my sister back."
"Hmmm?" Liam was taken aback but he didn't say anything. He then turned to Rey who gave him a big grin. "I am obviously staying here, bro."
"Same goes for me too." Madan nodded.
"Okay." Liam casually replied. He did not care about these things in the first place. He had bigger fish to fry. Alex, on the other hand, looked ecstatic. "With Madan and Deming staying, our main team roster has filled out perfectly. Liam, the next time you leave there won't be any need for you to go by yourself."
"Abraki stayed back saying something about not wanting to be a leader anymore. Lily, your friend Derek's sister, has made huge progress in healing and filled the role of Kang Minah." "And Mei Mei, your little sis has also completely changed. You are going to be very surprised when you see how much everyone has changed. I myself am close to another breakthrough. What level are you currently at?" Alex eagerly asked.
"Sis! Come on, can't you say something romantic? Is this the first question you ask your husband who came back after five years? Also, you totally forgot about me. He He. Want to guess my level?"
Alex completely ignored her brother and looked at Liam bright-eyed. "I am also still in the Awakened stage," Liam answered her, not wanting to demotivate her too much. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Alex, however, instantly understood and looked speechless. "Are you at level 900 or something?" She laughed, only to see the guy give a warm smile. Just like that once again she was so far away from the man she loved making all of her hard work seem like a huge waste.
But she shook it off and quickly came to the next important point. "Liam, I know what can help you make a breakthrough. There is a reason why we were able to make so much progress in such little time." Alex proffered as she stood up. "Come, I will take you to a place."
