I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World

After returning to Willow's Secret, Albion exchanged a few words with Princess Floria before departing with Fenriri. 

The issues within the Elf Tribe were, more or less, settled. 

Without Empress Una around to use her charm, the Elf King would eventually wake up from his dream world.

The day the Elf King wakes up, many changes in the tribe will surprise him. 

However, nothing would come as a greater shock than the scorched World Tree and the World Tree's spirit chanting lines from the Buddhist Scripture as if it was trying to become a Bodhi Tree.

If that day ever comes, it would be a sight to behold.

… 

…

…

After Albion carried Fenriri on his back and exited the Armentia Forest, they searched for the spaceship they had left in stealth mode. 

But after searching for an entire hour, the spaceship was nowhere to be seen in the area.

"That's strange… I tend to forget things, but I was pretty sure I parked the spaceship here…" 

Albion furrowed his brows in thought as he stood in the empty patch of land where Polemos' private spacecraft was supposed to be. 

"Do you think the spaceship ran away on its own, Master?" Fenriri made a guess.

"Although Polemos can recall the spaceship back to Damocles remotely, I don't think he's tired of living to play such a prank without informing me," Albion casually stated. 

"Then…"

"We have no choice but to accept the reality of the situation. We've been robbed," Albion stated with a frown before adding, "Someone must have discovered the spaceship and took it away while we were visiting the elves."

"Oh, that's great—!" Fenriri's rejoice abruptly ended after Albion shot her glance before she quickly corrected herself, "I mean, oh no… Who would do such a thing?"

"Probably someone tired of living," Albion shrugged nonchalantly. 

He did have a clue who the culprit could be, but it wasn't a cause for concern.

Ring, ring~!

Albion dialed Polemos's number and the call quickly connected. 

"Your spaceship was stolen. Track it down and find the culprit."

"Yes, my Lord. I'll have it done immediately."

Beep. 

The call ended quickly ended after Albion went straight to the point and received Polemos's answer.

Fenriri waited patiently during this time before inquiring, "So how do we get back without the spaceship, Master?"

"How else?" Albion glanced at Fenriri and said, "We'll fly back on our own." 

"Oh… We'll be flying back on our own…" 

Fenriri nodded with understanding before falling silent.

In the next moment, she suddenly turned around and began fleeing from Albion with all the strength and speed she could muster. 

However, Albion caught up in a single step and scooped her off her feet. 

Boom! 

With a powerful stomp in the next step, the ground cracked under Albion's brute strength and launched his body into the sky together with Fenriri under his arm.

"Wait, Master—! Nooo—!" Fenriri cried. 

Her face paled, and her eyes began to roll back.

Before long, the wolf-girl passed out from the motion sickness as Albion carried her and broke the sound barrier, disappearing into the distant skies with a sonic boom.

The spaceship did not seem so bad after Fenriri experienced Albion's flight.

Draco county, Silvercove city

During the span of the past few days, growing tension and concerns spread across the entire city after Stillwater city suddenly entered a lockdown, forbidding all entry and exit.

All roads leading to Stillwater city were blocked at the borders, and all information related to the situation inside the city was strictly controlled and contained by the government. 

The people of Silvercove city and other surrounding cities could not find out about Stillwater city's situation through public channels. 

Even so, everyone knew something big was happening inside. 

Only Hunters were permitted entry into the city, and it was only under the condition that they had been assigned to an expedition team.

All solo explorations were denied. 

After several expedition teams failed to return from their explorations and intel-gathering, the government and Hunter Association classified Stillwater city as a disaster-class danger zone.

Disaster struck abruptly, and the situation escalated even quicker.

The entire city was swallowed in the flames of chaos overnight when the world first heard a piece of news related to the Scruxs, a parasitic bug race from another world.

…

Inside the Seymour family's ancestral home, Old Seymour pranced back and forth with worry in front of his gathered family after being summoned.

However, a few members were evidently missing from the group.

"Father, please take a seat and calm down. You need to be mindful of your health and age," Klein Seymour advised his old man with concern, fearing the old man would suddenly stumble and injure himself

However, David Seymour was stubborn and refused his son's advice. 

"Calm down, you say?" David Seymour glared at Klein and thundered, "Your younger brother has been missing for many days, and not long ago, your sister-in-law also went missing looking for brother in Stillwater city! How can I be calm in this situation?!"

"I know you are worried, but being worried won't change anything except worsening your health, father!" Klein Seymour stressed before adding, "There will be a meeting at the new Blackthorne Headquarters later tonight." 

"They should be addressing Stillwater city's issue. Although it's unlikely for them to come up with an immediate solution, I can suggest forming an independent expedition team and enlist some of our best men to join and look for William and Martha." 

David Seymour gradually calmed down somewhat after listening to Klein Seymour's plan. 

However, Eleanor Seymour frowned while sitting beside Anya and her mother.

Unlike the ordinary people in the city, the top families of Silvercove all had access to confidential information on the Stillwater city's situation. 

A large hive spawned on the beachside, and the battle inside the city was especially intense. Even B-rank and A-rank Hunters have been recorded to be killed in action.

Although the Blackthorne Group grew quickly after unifying the city's underground forces, she didn't believe their people could change the situation and save the people trapped inside.
