Due to Waltzâs competitiveness and sudden improvement in fighting, she had wanted to teach this
loathsome piece of sh*t a lesson. Thus, she didnât hold back when she slapped him.
âHeh, youâve lost to me before, Fleur. Did you forget? Does your arm no longer hurt?â
Back then, he had dislocated Waltzâs arm.
Upon hearing the exchange in provocation, the crowd dispersed immediately.
However, the big fight didnât happen as expected.
Dickinson flung his leg towards Waltz, yet she was able to grab him by the ankle and threw him to the
ground. Dickinsonâs arm smashed against one of the ores. With a loud crunch, his arm was fractured.
âHoly sh*t! You, youâre advanced now!â
Waltz appeared proud, a smug look was plastered on her face. âHey Dicky, remember to avoid me if
you can. Oh, by the way, suck it up, loser.â
She picked up a small stone and shoved it into Dickinsonâs mouth. The sharp ends cut the insides of
his mouth, causing it to bleed profusely.
The color drained from Kaydenâs face, his jaw trembled slightly.
He finally realized that the woman next to Alex was Princess Fleur of Thousand Miles Conglomerate.
To think he wanted to hire someone to rob them clean. He couldnât help but sweat cold bullets.
Half an hour later, the two smaller ores that Alex bought were cut open as well.
Everyone couldnât help but gasp and cry with envy.
âThis canât be possible, thereâs just no way!â
âHow could this be?â
âAll three of them, all three of them had emeralds in them, oh my god!â
Lots of people had posted the pictures onto their social media pages as well.
âLetâs go!â Alex turned to Waltz.
The two brought the priceless emeralds with them as they stopped by Tobiasâ store to get the alchemy
stove and headed back to Maple Villa.
It was a relief that the stove wasnât too big and they werenât driving Waltzâs Lanborghini. Otherwise,
theyâd have to have another car sent over.
âBrother!â Waltz said in a sweet voice, her eyes were glistening.
âWhatâs up?â
âHow are you so amazing? Youâre a fighter, a medic, an alchemist and you know how to gamble on
stones too! Oh, what do I do? Iâm falling in love with you!â
Alex flicked her cheeks. âGet lost.â
âOw!â Waltz cocked her head as she covered her cheek with one hand. âYouâre just so great, Brother.
But look at your little sister, Iâm just so weak! I would be an embarrassment to you with such weakness,
wouldnât I? So Brother, can you do me a favor and improve my fighting skills again? I donât need you to
help me improve drastically, Iâd just like to rank up to the Mystic rank.â
âAh f*ck, so thatâs the catch.â
Alex said crossly, âDo you think this is a game? You think you could just rank up as if youâre buying in-
game VIP purchases? There arenât many shortcuts in the martial arts. If we were to force growth upon
your skills, youâd be limited from further growth in the future. Donât worry, as soon as the chakra pills
are done, Iâll help you out once more. As for ranking up, thatâll depend on how talented you are.â
âOkay!â
âOh, and donât tell anyone about the stone gambling incident. The emeralds are useful to me.â
When he returned home, Alex realized that Azure and the others who were secretly protecting the
house had left.
With the stove and the materials, they attempted to make the chakra pills. However, the stove required
some maintenance, it was missing a leg after all. Alex was excited to look more into the energy flowing
in the stove as well.
However, just as he was about to start his research, Dorothy gave him a call.
âAlex, can you come by my place?â Dorothy sounded gloomy.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âMy mom went stone gambling at the Antique Street and lost 500 thousand dollars. Sheâs in debt now
because of this. The lenders have come to our house demanding their money back. Do⦠you have
enough money?â
âAh.â Alex replied understandingly.
