======

Gulp-

"Young master, are you thirsty?"

I nodded my head.

The pet.i.te girl pa.s.ses me a gla.s.s of water.

Thanking her I gulped down the water in one go.

(Have you met her before?)

"No, I haven"t."

(But the appraisal says otherwise.)

"I can pa.s.s by a random stranger on the roadside. That might also be counted as a meeting."

I answered Eth.

Why was he focusing on the evaluation when there was something else in the focus here?

Her name, rank, stigma, almost everything was a question mark. This meant two things.

Either she was hiding her status details with another skill. Or she was at least two ranks higher than me.

She wouldn"t know I have [Appraisal]. So, she can"t prepare countermeasures for it.

This means she was stronger than me. By a large margin at that.

I finally understood why Richard was afraid of her.

Even if she was only Tesla rank, Richard was still no match for her.

"Why is someone like her here?"

Anyone above Enma rank can be counted as a proper combat force.

The gap between Enma rank and Tesla rank is where most awakeners reach their limit.

Screeech-

While I was pondering over the issue, the girl left the room, and the door was closed.

I looked over at Richard.

"What is her name?"

"Chloe, she is my adoptive daughter."

"She is what?"

"She is my adoptive daughter, Chloe Williamson."

I didn"t ask since when he had an adoptive daughter.

I had already done proper research on them before coming here. At least this was what I made Richard and his son, Jonathon, believed.

And from the novel, I knew Miller had no adoptive sister.

The fact that Richard was telling me that he has an adoptive daughter means only one thing.

"He"s trying to bring it to my attention. He is purposely saying that, so I know something is amiss."

Why was he doing this?

His afraid expression answered that. He wanted help.

The Oath we took a few moments ago also included that we must not betray or try to harm the other party.

Richard was sitting safe and sound in front of me. This proved he hadn"t broken the Oath.

So, at least he wasn"t planning something to betray me.

That la.s.s was a danger to him. And she wasn"t on his side.

A deep sigh escaped my lips, and I nodded my head.

Richard smiled brightly when he saw that I understood his signal and accepted to help.

"Just my luck."

I pa.s.sed Richard doc.u.ments that contained detailed plans on clearing "Conqueror"s Trial", how he should form teams with his gang members, and the details regarding Elixir Pool.

One person can only bring out a certain amount of Elixir at once. Thus, using the manpower of the gang to collect Elixir was the perfect idea.

"Take care of everything that I have written here. I"ll see what I can do about the rest."

Richard resolutely nodded in his head.

The Elixir Pool was my ride to becoming a millionaire in one go.

"Haaa….."

"Seems like becoming a millionaire will take a while."

"I"ll have to deal with this "Chloe" first."

Ultimately though, I shook my head.

"I"ll deal with her after I complete my job in the Underworld."

Putting the issue of Chloe at the back of my mind, I spoke to Richard.

"Old man, let me borrow a room for training. Oh, and bring me a 100 Iota rank cores essence within this week."

I stood up and stored the Master-Servant Oaths in my storage ring.

"And make sure Miller is the one to bring the essence to me."

Richard frowned and nodded.

I smiled when I noticed that he didn"t ask anything about the money.

Looks like he was trying to get in my good shoes.

"Well, after he reads about the Elixir Pool he won"t think of 100 Iota rank cores essence as expensive.)

As I was thinking about such things, Richard guided me to a secluded room.

I entered the room alone and closed the door behind me.

"It"s training time."

***

Knock- Knock-

"Come in."

Receiving the answer, Miller entered the room.

"Boss, I brought the essence you asked for."

Miller looked at his "boss" while saying so.

Brown hair and white mask. Other than that, there was nothing noteworthy about this person.

He was slim, not overly slim but also not buffed. He wasn"t very tall or short, just average. He had a normal tone of voice. All in all, he was the definition of average.

Yet, the day this person appeared, his life was flipped on its head.

A few weeks back, Miller got to know he wasn"t an orphan. Heck, the leader of the gang was his father himself!

He then got to know about his potential.

Honestly, for Miller, this was shocking. But not something he never expected.

The way the gang leader and his son treated him, Miller was already suspicious about their relationship.

He was treated too kindly, and his rise in the gang was also quick. As if someone was supporting him from behind the scenes.

Miller was a person who dealt with things when life threw them onto him.

Besides, even though his dad hid his ident.i.ty, Miller lived a comfortable childhood.

Despite living in Downtown he never slept hungrily or was attacked. Now Miller knew the reason behind it.

Anyway, the real shock started coming from here.

The reason his dad revealed their relationship was because of the person who had beaten Miller. This person had instructed to bring Miller under himself.

At first, Miller wanted to refuse, but after seeing that he was putting his dad in a tight spot, he agreed.

Then one week ago, a girl appeared on their turf.

Without any warning, she stormed into their base and defeated everyone within an hour.

Miller thought that this was the end of their gang.

But what happened next shocked him more than the news about his family.

The very girl who defeated their gang became his sister the next day.

Miller suddenly had a sister.

At this point, Miller"s brain short-circuited.

He did not have the capacity to even think anymore.

Unable to accept or deny the reality, Miller lived in a daze for the week.

Then, the person whom Miller was supposed to be working under came.

If Miller had to speak the truth, he felt it. This person wasn"t simple.

Contrary to how ordinary he looked, Miller thought of him as a storm.

A storm that was going to make a mess of his life.

And his thoughts were proven correct.

This person gave them a Stage-0 Dungeon.

There weren"t even 100 Stage-0 Dungeons and all of them were regarded as national treasures. But he gave them it as casually as giving a lollipop!

It was due to this his dad accepted this man"s request for Essence without objections.

The Black t-shirt gang was currently in a financially difficult position. Most of their funds have been used for repair and treatment of damage done by his "sister Chloe".

Buying the Essence was like kicking in their curb while they were down.

But was this the end?

h.e.l.l no! This person was a storm, a storm!

After his dad read the doc.u.ments given by this person, they came to know about the existence of the Elixir pool in the dungeon.

An Elixir was a rare potion type that many won"t even see in their lifetime.

Yet, this man had a pool to himself!

Miller"s dad almost cried out of happiness at this discovery. Even 20% profit from this deal was going to fill their pockets deep.

"What are you gawking for?"

His boss questioned him.

"Nothing, boss."

Miller walked up to his boss and pa.s.sed him the essence.

It was a silver liquid stored in a flask.

While Miller was thinking about how to run away from the storm his boss took the essence.

A mechanical orb appeared in his boss" hand and he dropped the essence on it.
