Alex didn't reply right away; he played with the coin inside his hand before finally saying.
''I want to screw the Chaos organization up like last time.''
He knew with this little information, Leo would be able to connect the dots, and it was exactly what happened.
After the initial surprise, Leo smiled while asking.
''What do you want to give in exchange?"
''I will let you have more than fifty percent of my share in Holy Crux empire,'' Alex responded.
Leo was shocked at first before bursting into a burst of laughter.
''Hahahaha! You're good. It's a deal. This thing is troublesome to look after. I'll gladly let you do whatever you want with it.'' The emperor declared before performing another series of hand seals, and the barrier; the key was removed, and the key gently fell into Leo's hand before he tossed it into Alex's direction.
Alex caught it and felt the cold sensation of metal against his skin; the sleeping Eterna became lively all of a sudden.
''Let's go back,'' Alex said, trying to calm the overly excited Eterna.
Leo nodded, already planning how to use the more than fifty percent deal he got. Hopefully, there would be many dungeons in the land he had just acquired. Like this, the two dungeons they lost would be recovered.
°°°°°°
As soon as Alex went back, he secluded himself in his room before taking out the black key, one of the keys used to seal Bahamut temporarily.
He didn't forget to ask Nyx to seal his room inside a powerful barrier; he was no fool to let Bahamut know that he was the one screwing him over; if he were to make that mistake, he would die.
[Hehehehe! Father, let me consume it. I can detect powerful energy coming from this thing. I may evolve if I consume it.] Eterna's voice rang inside his head.
Alex chuckled before letting Eterna consume the key.
The black chain shot out from his hand and swallowed the key.
Gulp!
Alex felt a nice sensation throughout his body. He felt like his body got upgraded. Impatient to see the changes, he summoned his status.

''What? There is no change?" Alex said, shocked, not seeing any change in his stats despite the sensation he had just felt.
''Eterna, you little greedy kid, what did you do?" Alex asked the one he thought he was responsible for the current situation.
p
''What?" Alex was shocked by his calm response.
Suddenly, Alex kneeled because he felt an intense pain.
He gasped for air and stumbled to his feet; the world seemed to spin around him. For a moment, Alex thought about just giving in to the pain, letting it consume him completely, as there seemed to be no way out. He paused for a moment and took a deep breath. Perhaps if he could shift their focus away from the pain, it'd be easier to manage.
Soft moans and grunts escaped his mouth. Tired and frustrated, Alex wanted it all to be over and done with. But sick of having to deal with all this, he decided to simply refuse to acknowledge the pain and get on with their day to the best of their ability.
In another location, Silveria, who had shut down everything since that little episode, couldn't help but worry about seeing her master in pain. She decided to stop being stubborn and help her master. Seeing this, Nyx smiled, mumbling.
'Finally, you stopped being stubborn. But master is a good actor.'
She knew her master was indeed suffering but not as strong as he was trying to portray. Smart as he is, he couldn't help but use this situation to his advantage. He was trying to lure Silveria out, and his plan seemed to have worked as the silver-haired goddess appeared and held his body; she was trying to soothe his pain by sending a harmless strand of silver energy inside his body. She didn't dare to send a lot of energy for fear of canceling the change his body was experiencing.
''Don't worry, endure it a bit longer; I will be over soon.'' She said as she softly caressed his hair.
''S... sorry...for what I've said back then. I'm truly sorry.'' Alex declared with difficulty.
''No, no, stop talking and concentrate on feeling the change inside your body. It will be over soon.'' Silveria declared. She had already forgotten about what happened back then; the only thing she wished for right now was to see her master back on his feet, safe and sound.
Alex nodded; his body convulsed a few times, his eyes were bleeding, and even blood was dripping from his ears.
The pain continued for a few minutes before all blood vanished, returning to Alex's body.
He felt refreshed, and his body was filled with strength, like those MCs in wuxia novels; he felt like the current him could crush a mountain with the swing of his hand.
''Thank you, Silveria.'' Alex declared while kissing Silveria on the forehead.
''What?" Silveria, who was not expecting such an attack, froze, and her face blushed.
''How cute,'' Alex said and immediately jumped back to avoid a punch thrown at him.
''Stay still, and let me punch you once.'' Silveria declared while cracking her knuckles.
''Hell no. I would hurt.'' Alex refused and went to the other end of the room.
Seeing this, Silveria sighed and decided not to do anything.
''Check your status. I'm curious about your current level.'' She suggested, and Alex nodded.
Even without checking his stats, he knew they'd changed as he could feel the power coursing through his body.
Right before Silveria could punch him, he jumped back, he didn't even put any effort into this, and he almost appeared at the other end of the room.
''Status!" He mumbled.
