The chaperone with the codename Chase was furious.
Alex didn’t know that Chase was actually Luneth’s personal bodyguard. The Muellers were a very powerful local family. One of her ancestors was a Divine Monarch as well. They were still alive at this point in time, but they had been weakened.
Luneth had quite the potential. All her elders had high expectations for her, training her in the hopes that she’d one day surpass them. Thus, they spent a lot of time and energy and sent her to the Underworld for a transformation.
Chase was sent by the elders to protect her. There was a reason the elders weren’t personally here. No one more powerful than an Immortal Emperor could enter the Underworld.
At this moment, Luneth gave herself up as a hostage to protect them. Yet, there was no way Chase could accept the fact that Luneth was just taken away like that. He couldn’t possibly bring himself to tell the news to the elders of the Muellers.
He spoke up. “Stop shouting. It’s not safe here. If you start attracting enemies, I can’t protect you in my current state.”
Cecilia quietened immediately. “What do we do now?”
Chase said, “We heal our wounds first, then we go east. Lune is very smart. She’ll definitely survive under him.”
Cecilia said grumpily, “Hmph! I think he’s gay. It would be hard even if Lunafreya tried seducing him.”
Chase didn’t answer. He just glared at her.

At the same time, Alex, Mystic Maiden and Luneth were riding on the aircraft they robbed from the trialists of Galaxy Nova. They’d thoroughly examined this kind of aircraft long ago.
The Novian trialists who they killed with the formation this time were all rare geniuses of the galaxy.
Alyssa belonged to the newer generation of geniuses, and those who were killed this time were of the older. They were more powerful than the youngsters and had richer possessions in the rings.
The Mystic Maiden was checking out the items, extremely satisfied.
“Bastard, I did it for you. Haven’t I treated you well enough?”
Alex was actually kind of,brilliant moved. “Thank you so much. Should I repay you with my body?”
Mystic Maiden looked at him in disgust. “Get away from me. You have no right”
Alex smiled. He was only joking,terrified after all.
Luneth was getting frustrated because they spoke in the modern language, so she couldn’t understand it.
“What are you guys talking about? Which world are you actually from?”
Alex dragged her over. “Don’t ask questions that you’re not supposed to. You’re just a GPS now, understand?”
