Hessen's expression darkened when he looked through the report. He ended up pinching the bridge of his nose and leaning to his chair with a troubled expression.
"Seriously There is someone like this?" Hessen let out a long sigh, recalling Albert's information.
"According to the information, this guy came to the Lust Kingdom a few months ago. For some reason, he met Prince Yale, who was planning to visit the Lust Kingdom for the war convention.
"Then, Her Majesty Lilith fancied him during this meeting. As expected, there is no information regarding this because the succubus queen would charm everyone, making it hard for them to state what had transpired in that area.
"Anyway, this guy returned to the Pride Kingdom and received Prince Yale as his student. It seemed that he somehow taught the prince how to handle both elements No, from the looks of it, he has granted him a power that can harmonize the two elements.
"In other words, any person with two elements will be able to become an elite as long as he grants them this power. With this one power alone, I can easily accept Her Majesty Lilith's demand. If such a person creates a legion and opposes the Lust Kingdom, it will surely be a National Crisis.
"But his power didn't stop there. Although I'm not sure about this, he has been helping the Lust Kingdom with an extremely risky tasks such as Slime King Subjugation, Wraith's Capture, and the recent Dryad Invasion.
"His power seems to work so well against someone with extreme lust like the succubus. In other words, his power is the opposite of the Lust Kingdom This is a pretty risky situation from her perspective.
"If I were Her Majesty Lilith, I would have eliminated him even though I knew his power about the two elements
"But I guess she found something even more important in him to the point she wished for him to survive and love the kingdom
"He seems to have a unique group as well with all of them using a wooden bat. It seems his power is related to this bat. I don't know why but I should focus on the bat instead. The bat is not an artifact or treasure. Instead, it's his power. This is the point.
"If it's an artifact, Lilith would have robbed him instead of befriended him. Still, the one thing that took my attention was his name.
"Albert Gran. It's just a typical noble name If such a family exists. The problem is even with the data recorded in the Adventurer Guild, there's not a single noble family with "Gran" in their name.
"In other words, this name is a fake name. He indeed registered the name with only Albert, but he once put his full name in a small town. This means his common sense told him that it's common for him to give his full name.
"Hmm Having a family name with such a unique power, there are many records about this. However, all of them are related to the Hero Summoning.
"Now I know why Her Majesty Lilith treasures him like this. This Albert Gran might be the first demon ever summoned to this world. After all, the Hero Summoning always summoned humans.
"The war with the Risourin Kingdom started due to the Hero Summoning, so having a summoned being made her think this is a chance to fight those summoned heroes.
"I see. This must be the reason why Her Majesty Lilith wanted to kill me even though the matter wasn't that big of a deal. It was true that the moment this Albert was angry with the Lust Kingdom, they would experience a national crisis."
Hessen thought for a moment and looked at the bell on the table. He rang it a few times until a middle-aged man entered his room, bowing his head.
"Master. Do you need anything from me?"
"I want you to do something important for me. Put an adventurer called Albert from Seika Town as a Five Star Secret. He's a Demon Dog."
"An adventurer?" The middle-aged man was confused. After all, Five Star Secret meant only the guild master of the headquarters could see this.
"Just do it. You're not to investigate him as well."
"I know." The middle-aged man nodded with a grim expression.
When the man left, Hessen closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. He grabbed the paper and placed it on top of a candle, burning the paper. "I have fulfilled the agreement. I hope that I don't need to deal with this thing again. Albert Gran I wonder what kind of change will you bring to this world as someone different from those heroes"
Seika Town.
Albert was unaware of the conversation between Lilith and Hessen. After getting that visit from Lilith, he had been staying home, waiting for Irena to come back.
In the meantime, Bepe was supervising the renovation of the house while Shella flew around the town, wondering what kind of people she could study.
On the other hand, Yale and Jessie had been under Albert's tutelage. Yale was trying to grasp his control over both elements while Jessie simply wanted to get stronger and helped Albert.
During their training, Yale asked. "Teacher. What are we planning to do? From what I remember, we've been doing a mission and hopping to another town a few times it follows this pattern for quite a while, except when we were assigned special tasks by you."
"Really?" Albert tilted his head in confusion before realizing it was the case. "I see. It seems I haven't thought it through."
"Yes." Yale nodded with a serious expression.
"Hmm To be honest, I want to get another mission in this place while completing the Horny Jail. Then, I'm going to settle down somewhere near the border between the Lust Kingdom and the Gluttony Kingdom.
"At that time, I believe you're prepared for graduation, meaning you don't need to follow me anymore.. Of course, it'll be much appreciated if you can teach others about Bonk too."
