Chapter 441 - Eilric Family

Meanwhile, Alea had a meeting with her father.
She opened her father's office and saw another man giving a document to him.
"Father," Alea called him with a smile.
"Oh?" Her father leaned sideways and saw Alea entering the room. "Oh, do you need anything from me, dear?"
"I would like to borrow some elites for an expedition," said Alea while raising two fingers.
"Sure thing. I will lend them to you. How many do you need?" James asked while glancing at his assistant, "Can you compile the report there?"
"I understand." The man nodded and stepped back, bringing all the documents…
"I need two Supreme Rank Experts of our family."
James widened his eyes as if he couldn't believe what she said. Even his assistant put down his matter and eavesdropped on their conversation.
"You are going to Sinx Forest and Eion Plain, no?" James tilted his head in confusion. "Why do you need two Supreme Rank Experts?"
"On top of them, I need thirty Level 400 and twenty Level 300 Experts." Alea raised the number again to a ridiculous amount.
"Wait a minute, tell me the reason first."
"Actually, that's something I would like to report, Sir." His assistant raised his hand while giving him another document.
"Hmm?" James furrowed his eyebrows and asked, "There's a movement from them?"
"Yes. According to our scouts, they couldn't find a single human left in Eion Plain while the military concentrated their force in Sinx Forest."
"Ho? For what reason?"
"They want to attack Wolf City and we can safely assume they will get rid of the Coal Dome as well."
"They have information about them?"
"I don't think so."
"That's reckless then." James frowned and looked at his daughter, "Do you seriously want to participate in something like this?"
"Yes." Alea nodded. "I have two reasons. I'm sure Father knows the reason why I chose to stay here for another week, right?"
"Of course. You thought this war would last for a long time."
"Yes, but with this change, I'm afraid I was wrong. They are planning to solve this war as soon as possible. As for the reason why they change their mind, even I don't have any idea. This is my first reason." Alea sighed. "If Father knows something, please tell me."
"No, I don't have any idea as well. There must be something that disrupted the balance."
"Yes. I'm planning to investigate it." She nodded. "While I'm at it, I'm going to help the military to deal with them. We can safely assume the leaders of these two places are General Class Monsters like Unending Tree Spirit that I met back then. Asking them can be another alternative to investigate this matter."
"Fair enough. Though, this is just a reckless move." James frowned.
"Well, I have another reason…" Alea scratched the back of her head. "Though, this came from Grandfather, not me. He said the military seems to be hiding something big, so they need to take this reckless action."
"Hiding something big." James looked down, contemplating the situation. "Ho? This is interesting. On top of having General Class, their strength might have reached Supreme Rank. To kill those two, I can only consider two possibilities. First, they are eliminating the threats because they are scared. Second, they are aiming at something. Third, they are dumb."
"Father, there's no need for the third one."
"That's why I said two possibilities, honey." James shrugged as he just wanted to spite the military a little bit. "I see. How far can you see now?"
"This is my limit. Grandfather promised me to be one of the two Supreme Rank Experts to guide me more about this. I'm sorry." Alea shook her head in disappointment.
"No, no. You have grown enough in this short time." James smiled, seeing his daughter wasn't that reckless and happy-go-lucky daughter anymore.
"To be honest, I believe your grandfather is trying to get the information by moving together with the army. I said there are two possibilities, right? Your grandfather is trying to see whether it's the second reason or not. If it's not, then it's the first one. We can focus on that one possibility, which makes it easier to solve. Understand?"
"I see." Alea nodded a few times.
"And who came up with the number distribution?" James asked.
"Me." Alea raised her hand. "I thought two Supreme Rank Experts should be enough to let us escape if something goes wrong. 30 Level 400 Experts will provide enough firepower. As for the rest, they are there to support all of us while gaining some levels. This is a perfect place for that, after all."
"That's good. At least, you have thought them carefully. Better pick talented people in this expedition because your grandfather is with you."
"Yes. As for me, I would like to gain more experience in leading an expedition like this. And Grandfather promised to guide me more… That's why I hope Father agrees with this request."
"Of course." James smiled. "When my daughter tries so hard to grow, how can I not support her? To be honest, I already have the second Supreme Rank Expert in mind."
"Who?" Alea asked with confusion. They only had ten Supreme Rank Experts in the family, so it was hard to mobilize them. She wanted to know who would move with them.
"Your mother. When I told her about your progress, she quickly stopped her project and flew back. She should arrive five hours from now… It was supposed to be a surprise, but since it's like this, we can surprise her instead." James chuckled. "That's all. I will arrange the people you need. For now, wash yourself and change into nicer clothes. We are going to pick her up."
"I understand. Thank you, Father." Alea nodded with a smile. She turned around and left the room excitedly.
Meanwhile, his assistant glanced at him with a surprised face. "I'm sorry for being rude, but is she really your daughter?"
"Oi." James glared at him.
"Sorry." His assistant shrugged.
"Though, I'm also surprised by her change. I guess I won't need to worry about her soon." James couldn't help but rise and start dancing to show his happiness.
"Please maintain your composure."
"How can I? I have been waiting for this moment for more than ten years. How can I stop?" James ignored him and continued as the room was soon filled with a celebration mood.
