The box then exploded in a tiny puff of fla to echo out to everyone
[HAHAHAHA! HAHAHA! HAHAHAHA!]
”…” As the smoke from the tiny explosion faded away, the TimeMaster's pale faces all turned paler as they realized as actually happening
”Those rebels sure are vicious” Alina muttered behind Alex as she observed the TimeMasters around her ”They did not ask for any kind of ranso that they will use Annie for souys must have hated the TimeMasters a lot”
”That could be the case But there is a chance that this e is also a trap by these rebels” Alex replied as his eyes only narrowed further ”Why would these rebels even flaunt about their planned ritual? Even if it's for their ego, it doesn'ttheir ritual in the danger of being aborted!”
”Alex, are you saying that these rebels wanted the TImeMasters to look for the location of the ritual?”
”I am not sure Alina But I a else planned beside this ritual” Alex replied as he closed his eyes ”And the only way that we can uncover this plan is when those rebels decide to use it”
”…”
After Alex said these words, Alina turned silent, as she looked dohile nibbling her teeth She see, which made her like this
”…Alex, the situation in this world is getting ave hiet swept away by all of this? Are you sure that we can still be the dominant side here?”
”We will never know the answer to that Alina, unless we make our moves” Alex replied confidently as he clasped Alina's shoulders ”If ill just stay indecisive and doubt ourselves, ill never have the chance to succeed As such, all that we can do now is to ”
”So you want us to sail through the stor it settle?”
”Exactly”
”…We must better prepare our sails then”
”Indeed”
”We must also chart our courses properly froht up with your metaphor, Alina”
”Sorry about that, captain”
”Sigh… I can see that you get my point already” Alex said as he shook his head ”Noe just have to strengthen ourselves while ait for the right ht” Alina said as she nodded her head ”Since Annie will be used for a ritual, there is no doubt that she is still alive now As for Kiera and her grandpa…”
”Those till also be safe I gave them numerous Inscripted Symbols to defend themselves' Alex said as the silhouette of a stylus appeared on his hand ”As long as there is no extremely powerful cultivator who makes a move on Kiera, I aht And besides, Annie will also use her status to protect Kiera and the old htly
”Well, as long as those rebels are not crazy, nothing bad will really happen to them…” Alextowards hiuess it's time for us to face the wrath of our friends”
”…Alex, are you saying that these TimeMasters will blame us for what happened here?” Alina asked as she also saw the approaching Tiht?”
”Well, I think that the reason that these TimeMasters were kind to us before was because they knew that the Great TimeMaster wanted to hire me as a babysitter” Alex said hollowly as he shook his head ”They seem to value Annie a lot, just like what you can see here”
”Oh” Alina's face then turned strained as she realized what Alex was talking about ”They were treating you nicely before because of Annie But now that Annie has been kidnapped, and it even happened right under your nose, there is no way that the TImeMasters will just let you be off”
”Exactly” Alex said as he let out a sigh He then looked up at the TImeMasters, as he sensed their eer in, although I can sense that all of them are pissed at me” Alex said to Alina as he scooted closer to her
”…That's not a good sign, Alex” Alina replied as she assumed a defensive pose
”Don't worry, these people will not attack us, I think” Alex said as he tried to caluests…”

”Hmph, it seems like you know it too It's not only my fault It's also the fault of all of you” Alex mercilessly said as his eyes scanned the crowd around hiht no-”
”Do you think that we can really save your Young Mistress by pointing fingers around here?” Alex said as he forcefully interrupted the Ti blame everywhere, why don't we justMistress? How about that?”
