"Anyway, I think I should ask this first." Alex stopped them and returned to the topic. "What were you going to do earlier?"

"Ah, right." Alicia nodded. "The Green Devil Tribe surely wanted a good body to experiment, so we wanted to come to their base to kill their Gods. Even if I am not able to fight their God, Ilumi will do it in my stead.

"The problem will be the remaining devils in this tribe. As long as they are not removed, the poison will still be known to any devils in this world, so I am going to massacre the entire tribe to prevent the information about the poison from spreading.

"Of course, this was a hard choice even for me, especially after knowing your opinion as well. However, I have found something interesting in their tribe that makes me decide to do this.

"First will be Devilization Array. Although many high ranking devils have accessed this array, the Green Devil Tribe seems to be planning something. They are using poison to create a stronger devil, and this devil contains the same Green Devil Poison in their body.

"So, you can say that they have a stronger ability than their peers and if you kill them, the Green Devil Poison will spread, allowing the tribe to get even more ferocious." Alicia's expression turned serious as she hated what happened to her because of this Green Devil Poison.

"There is around ninety percent of the tribe that is actually agreeing to this matter, so I am going to act fast and destroy them."

Alex thought for a moment. She said she wanted to use the formation to trap them, and Alex felt they were going to succeed, depending on the strength of their poison. In fact, that was the only thing they needed to be watched out for because the only thing that could defeat Ilumi would be their poison.

But that weakness disappeared with the appearance of Alex and his Pure Fire. Alex nodded. "I think we can do this, but there is no need for you to pretend."

Alicia narrowed her eyes. "If I am not wrong, your Pure Fire can now solve any kind of poison, right?"

"Yes. I have evolved my Pure Fire to that level, so we can storm in." Alex nodded. "What is their power level?"

"One Rank 9 God and two Rank 10 Gods. The rest can be easily killed by Rank 10 God, I guess." Alicia glanced at Ilumi as the latter nodded to confirm her information.

"Still, I am sure that the Green Devil Tribe has enough people outside their tribe, so it's hard to exterminate them." Alex looked down and stroked his chin.

"I know, but I have the information. There will be a tradition in the Green Devil Poison that needs to be participated by every single member of the tribe. It's the selection of their next-generation leader."

"Oh, wow! So convenient." Alex exclaimed in amazement, half-joking.

"It's not convenient." Alicia shook her head and sighed. "It's what we have been doing this entire time. When their leader was making a poison, Ilumi distracted him, causing him to get poisoned by the very poison he tried to create. And waiting for him to make the poison with an antidote that has yet to be created, that's the best time they could do this."

"We decided to do it because the leader said someone would need to fight each other with their poison to be eligible to receive his seat, so I thought it was perfect," Ilumi added.

"Oh!" Alex nodded. He first thought it was plot armor that gave him a convenient situation to pass, but it seemed he was wrong. Alicia had been working hard for this, so he apologized inwardly.

"That's right. Alicia. Do you have a Space Element?"

"No. I am sensitive to the Space Element, but Spirit can't have two elements at the same time, especially an element coming from something, not a spirit." Alicia shook her head.

"Then, your formation is not formed by a Special Array?"

"Unfortunately, yes."

"How about if we upgrade it now? When is the selection of the patriarch?" Alex asked.

"It's going to be another year because all those elders are trying to eliminate each other first before the competition even begins."

"If we attack them at that time, I believe we will be able to wipe them out. And with your Divine Array and my Simulation Array, we should be able to mask all battles inside the formation." Alex nodded. "One year should be enough to learn a few Arrays and one Divine Art."

Alicia looked down, falling into deep thought. She looked at Ilumi, who nodded her head and decided to agree with this. "Alright. We will wait for another year until everything is ready. In the meantime, I can help you in increasing your Array Mastery."

"Then, I will be relying on you." Alex smiled and nodded. "Which arrays do you want to practice though? Do you have something in your mind?"

"Yes. I am planning to learn my Simulation Room, an Illusion Array, a Barrier Array, One attack type array and one binding type… Never mind, I won't go with the binding type. Instead, I am going to practice one Divine Art and one Teleportation Array."

"Master… Are you still going to practice your Space Element? I mean, since you are going to hide it for a while, I think you can practice another thing instead." Nelson asked with a concerned face. He could only ask this because he knew about Zark.

But Alex didn't know a single thing about him, so he shook his head. "Yes. I am hiding my Space Element, but it doesn't mean I should slack off. As much as I want to practice a Divine Fire Art, I believe Teleportation Array is better for me."

"I understand. I can't help you with the Teleportation Array, but I should be able to teach you the rest… At least I can offer you some tips and tricks. And one more thing, a Divine Array is different than you think." Alicia's expression turned serious. "You need to find one that suits your level because if you practice one that is a bit too far from you, it will seriously drain your power, especially with the fact that you can't use Spirit Crystal to power them up."

"Now that you mention it, the Spirit Crystal only produces Spiritual Energy while Divine Arrays need Divine Energy. In that case, won't it be too hard for you to maintain the formation?" Alex asked while furrowing his eyebrows, thinking Alicia wanted to play with her own life again.

"Nope. I have a few Divine Items in my possession. Although it's only a low rank Divine Item, they are pretty useful to fuel this formation. And I believe not a single Martial Saint can break this." Alicia shook her head.

Alex looked at her and nodded. "Alright. I will believe you in this area. Well, I need to practice my Alchemy skill again… Haiz too many things to do at once. And now your power has surpassed me, what am I going to do?"

"Why don't you stop practicing Array and Alchemy for the time being and focus on your Cultivation?" Alicia asked.

"That will definitely be a no. I am going to master them all because this will be important in the future. Besides, by having many techniques at once, I can hide some to create and a new persona, so the enemies won't recognize me. Isn't it the time where I need to be careful?" Alex glanced at Alicia.

"True enough. Alright. Forget that I asked." Alicia thought for a moment. "Since I can produce Array Plates, I can start earning money in bulk, so you don't need to worry about my cultivation resource. Firia is the same. In that case, you will be the one trying to get your own cultivation resources."

"Hmm… We can just rob the Green Devil Tribe for our cultivation resources for the time being." Alex shrugged.

"True. We can do that. In that case, we have time to spend since you yourself know there are too many things you need to do, right? You can start practicing between them." Alicia suggested.

"That's the only way, I guess." Alex nodded.

"By the way, who is going for this mission? Are you going to call everyone else?" Alicia asked.

Alex thought for a moment. "I, you, Nelson, Ilumi, and Anna. Ilumi is to kill the rank 10 God while Alicia and I kill their leader. Anna and Nelson are supposed to kill the remaining devils."

"It's still tough, I think. We are far stronger than them… That is for sure, but it's hard to fight so many Martial Saints at once. Do you know how many of them there? They have around twenty thousand Martial Saints. Even though God Stage is far stronger than Martial Saint, it's not to that point." Alicia was concerned about this.

"Really?" Alex felt a bit too powerful when he reached God Stage, so he never realized he had made a small mistake in his calculation. He adjusted his plan. "In that case, we will have Leoz and Jeanne as the backup. I don't think I will summon more than this because I don't want our battles to be too eye-catching to the point the others know it is us."

"I don't have a problem then." Alicia nodded. "Ilumi can also help others after killing the Rank 10 God."

"I think it's better for me to watch your battle instead of helping. Lady Alicia is strong, and Master Alex is stronger, but I am still a bit worried to see you both facing the Rank 9 God. Although Master Alex can handle their poison, it's still hard because we are fighting in an enclosed space." Ilumi shook her head.

Alex narrowed his eyes as he seemed to understand her meaning. "Do you mean they are going to release the poison in the air?"

"Yes. Master can burn the poison, but if they are spreading it in the air, this is going to be hard for us because Master needs to burn the poison with your Pure Fire… Which means you need to burn all the air inside the barrier." She nodded.

"It's a bit dangerous if that is the case for various reasons. Because of that, we should snatch their antidote as well. It won't go that well, but it should be enough to buy time."

"Yes. I have the same thought. In any case, we will do our best to defeat a Rank 9 God. I will be in the front because his poison won't work against me, and Alicia will be on the back, supporting me with her arrays." Alex decided before looking at Ilumi. "You can observe, but you should also kill a few people in our surroundings. Just ensure that there is no devil interfering in our battle while preventing them from using poison. After all, I need to purify the poison if everyone else gets inflicted by it."

"I understand. They have many poisons that can affect God Rank experts, so I will be extra careful." Ilumi nodded.

"In that case, I should also snatch a few poisons while doing the investigation." Nelson grinned.

"Alright. In that case, we should stop the meeting since we have discussed everything." Alex nodded and glanced at Nelson. "You can appear a bit later than us since I believe you should steal all their poisons when we are distracting them."

"Understood."

"Sure. I will give all the information we have gathered during the past few years." Ilumi nodded and grabbed Nelson's hand as they sneaked outside the room, leaving Alicia and Alex inside.

Alex and Alicia exchanged looks, knowing they were being considerate for them, a couple that hadn't met for more than a decade.

Alex looked at Alicia, and the latter looked back. They walked closer as Alex gently pulled her into his embrace. The two smiled and started kissing passionately and reached the bedroom.
