After the forced teleportation, the two appeared in the middle of a forest. The trees here were taller than any trees he had ever seen. The air was pure and filled with mana.
''Welcome to Elfira. I want to show you around, but it wouldn't be today as there is someone we must go to.'' Typhania said before retaking Alex's hand, and they teleported somewhere. It was an underground prison; the smell of blood filled the air making one not want to spend too much time there.
''Who are we going to visit?" Alex asked while covering his nose with his arm. The stench in the air was too much for his enhanced nose to take on without protection.
Typhania didn't say anything; she kept walking until she stopped before a cell; there was someone tied up in this cell; his arms were tied up against the wall by heavy black chains.
This man was around fifty, but Alex knew he was older; his face was filled with scars, and one of his eyes was blind.
''This man is Faranal, one of the elders. He is also your sister's father.'' Typhania revealed the prisoner's identity, shocking Alex.
Anger began boiling inside Alex; he wanted to meet this man to ask him why he abandoned his daughter and woman; he never contacted them again until recently when he tried to kidnap Gracier. What kind of father would do something like this? What kind of man would do something like that? He was curious.
''Hehehehe! So you are that bastard brother. That child shouldn't have been born. I played with her mother; that slut believed I had truly loved her. Ptui! What a joke. An inferior species.''
Suddenly, Gracier's father spat those words.
As proof of the anger that he was feeling, his lips curved upward slightly, and a slight smile escaped from his mouth... Just like what happened to many people when their anger reached a certain level, Alex began to laugh softly as he took a step forward.
Typhania didn't stop him as she had expected something like this when she brought him here.
Boom!
The cell door exploded from a kick from Alex and slammed into Elder Faranal.
''Gofu!" He vomited blood as his body was violently slammed against the wall behind him.
He hadn't the time to register the pain before Alex appeared before him and lifted him.
Bang! BOOM!
A solid punch landed in the middle of Elder Faranal's stomach, bending his body into a V shape as he slammed into the wall again, leaving cracks all over it.
''Cough! Cough!'' Elder Faranal violently coughed blood; pain filled his body like never before; he had thought that after everything he had gone through, he had become immune to pain but for some unknown reason, Alex's beating hurt more than anticipated. He had thought he would use this opportunity to die at Alex's hands; he just had to provoke him enough that anger would cloud his rationality enough to kill him.
Unfortunately, Alex had seen through his plan, so there was no way he would fall for his trick.
''You know, for a piece of shit like you, I have the perfect solution.'' Alex declared before lifting him to his head level, slapping him awake; Elder Faranal was forced to look at him, and when he did, his head became blank; he regretted having done that because in the next instant, he began thrashing against the ground holding his head while shouting as if he had been broken.
''....P.... please...for.. give me..... please... forgive.....me.''
Typhania watching this shivered and refused to look at Alex; currently, he was more intimidating than ever. Especially his right eye emitting dreadful pressure. He must have used this eye to put Elder Faranal under a powerful illusion.
Although she was curious about what kind of illusion he had put him under, she refrained from asking as she was sure it mustn't be something nice. She might receive some mental damage if she were to hear the details.
''Let's go,'' Alex said before leaving the cell; he didn't say anything else as he was sure Typhania would do everything to keep this man alive. He might be a scum worth less than an ant; he was still Gracier's father; they should let her see him even once.
''Don't worry, I will keep him alive. Well, until Gracier visit him.'' Typhania promised, and Alex nodded.
''It must be from him you got the information about Chaos organization.''
''Yes, I told me everything he knew after a good beating,'' Typhania said, recalling how she beat the hell out of Elder Faranal. He thought he would be invincible after receiving a small boost in strength, but he couldn't do anything when facing her. It was pretty amusing the expression he had back then.
Typhania shook her head and asked Alex about his plan from now on. He told her what they had decided to do.
''I see, that is a nice plan. It would be best to visit Elfira once you leave the Foxia empire. There's a dungeon here. I think it will help you grow stronger.''
''It promises then we will visit together with others. You should try to find out why the chaos organization is after Mysthia on your side. As for me, I'm planning to visit someone, and you know her, Priest Priscilla.'' Alex told Typhania what he planned to do after leaving Elfira.
''I know her. You want to ask her to put you in touch with the gods above, I am right?"
Alex nodded. ''As expected of you. I knew you'd understand. I plan to talk to the same goddess in charge of our reincarnation. I believe she must know something.''
''I see. It's true that if it is them. They might know something. Okay, I'll wait for your return, but in the meantime, there's something I must do. Some foolish child I must punish.''
Alex did not ask who she was talking about; he left Typhania alone.
