Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

If she had been there for Sasha, she wouldn\'t have been poisoned. And Sasha avoided her because she was so judgmental of Blaire, never giving him a chance to explain himself.

Meanwhile, William frowned, his eyebrows knitting together; the situation was worse than he had anticipated.

With almost every faction now in the King\'s hand, it was only a matter of time before the King started his move. It could be two days from now, tomorrow, or even today.

"Alex, can I tell my father about this? I want my family to evacuate. We will do it discreetly."

"Sure," Alex replied without even looking at William. His mind was occupied with what he should do next. After some thought, he asked Blaire, "How many people do you have under you?"

"I have only a few dozen that are useful. The rest is just normal security. If you want to attack the King with a full army, you will have no hope of winning. And I need to warn you, the King is strong."

"How strong?"

"More than I can imagine, so I cannot say."

"You should have watched the Guardian match. How do you compare it to Lily?"

Blaire paused for a moment, remembering the last Guardian tournament. Lily defeated her opponent easily without any problem.

"I know the Guardian should have some special abilities, but in the tournament, they could only fight using their preferred weapon.

Based on those performances and information I know about their abilities, the King should be able to defeat all of them without breaking a sweat."

\'They have power levels around 4 to 5. If I\'m being generous here, activating their unique weapon should allow their power level to rise by one or two points.

That still means they are weaker than me, and the King is stronger than me, but not by far. I should be able to defeat him if the situation is right.\'

Alex thought to himself, then asked, "If we infiltrated the castle and went straight to assassinate the king, how many people would need to fight?"

Blaire was surprised by how straightforward Alex was. He thought about it and, after some consideration, concluded that it was impossible to do.

Infiltrating the palace, where the security is now on high alert without anyone knowing, is just not possible.

"I don\'t think it\'s possible to do that without alerting anyone, Sir Alex. It will just end up with all the Royal Guard attacking you from all directions.

No matter how strong you are, being ganged up by that many people, you will not win.

Even with the help of the Guardian and my troop, it\'s just a drop in the bucket compared to the army the King can now mobilize."

Alex turned silent. If infiltration was not possible, then the other option was to try meeting with the King directly. But since the King already knew about him, he would certainly be wary and prepare an army for ambush.

Even with his current lifeforce stockpile, he didn\'t want to take the risk unless he really had no other choice.

"Can you think of a way to make the King go out alone?" Alex asked. He hoped they had more ideas since they knew more about the situation than him.

Blaire shook his head. "He will never go out alone. At the very least, he will bring two of his concubines, who also have strength that I cannot fathom."

"What can you tell about their power?"

"The two concubines were actually gifted by me. They should have been orphans without any combat skill, but after they spent time with the King, they changed."

Blaire paused for a moment, then added, "Actually, the king also started to change after he got them."

Hearing the word "concubine," Lily, who had been silent so far, interjected, "I know them. They give me a weird feeling."

"Weird, how? Did you also feel the same, Blaire?"

Blaire shook his head. While Lily tried to think hard to describe her feelings clearly.

Seeing the fake bone tail behind Alex that swayed left and right, she then got a realization.

"I get it now. Their tail movement is similar to you, Alex. It follows the same pattern in repetition.

I never thought about it before, but now it\'s possible that they also use some kind of illusion mechanism?"

\'If they are not Felidaens, the only possibility would be the fairy,\' Alex thought to himself. Alex never mentioned the fairy since he already concluded the race was hiding from the Felidaens.

\'But if this is true, does this mean Freya is the one behind all of this? Or she also doesn\'t know what happened?\' This makes Alex worry even more about the situation.

William, who had just finished contacting his family, then suggested, "Alex, there is a way to make the King come out. He will not be alone, but at the very least, he won\'t have many people around him. It\'s at the auction."

William\'s idea was quickly approved by the group. Since his father was responsible for the security of the event, it was possible to create an opportunity for Alex and the others to lay an ambush in the VIP room. But there were many other things Alex needed to consider.

"We still need to free the other political party\'s hostages and note every single loyalist of the King. Do you have that information, Blaire?"

"I only know some of it, but I can speculate where he will put the rest of the hostages, like the high councilor\'s family. It\'s just speculation, though, based on his personality now."

Since the King had become very lustful, even acting such in meetings, Blaire speculated that the high councilor\'s family was not spared.
