Primordial Soul's Rebirth

"Isn't that Maximus Steele?" Ann asked as she saw Max moving towards the ice cream shop they just left.

"Hm, looks like he's going to get some ice creams," Alice commented.

"He probably came here with his family to enjoy some free time," Alex spoke nonchalantly after glancing at Max for a second.

But then he raised his brow as his eyes looked at Max with interest.

'Hohh…'

"What's wrong?" Alice asked, after all, how could this action go unnoticed by Alice and Ann when they were walking right beside him?

"Is it his skill or stats?" Ann asked another question as she knew that only these things could make Alex look at a guy with interest.

"Both of them," Alex spoke with a hum before he looked away from Max.

Alice and Ann didn't say anything and waited for Alex to continue. They knew that Alex would tell them what it was if he wanted to tell them.

"He is said to be a B-rank raider, right? He is an S-ranked raider, he hid himself quite well," Alex didn't disappoint them and continued.

"Then there is also his skill, it's 'Soul binding truth contract' and although it is a long ass name, it is pretty good," Alex spoke without much care.

"What does it do?" Alice asked as she tilted her head to the right.

Alex looked at her for a while as she looked cute with that curious expression along with her head tilted. However, this made Alice confused as she thought that she asked something wrong, but Alex didn't make her wait long.

"It's like a death contract, and if one signs it willingly, then they will be forever bound by those conditions."

Alex replied, causing both Alice and Ann to be a bit surprised as it was quite a unique skill.

"So, this is the reason why there is no infighting within his faction, nor has he ever faced a betrayal, but that is not all there is to this skill is there?" Ann thought out loud and then asked Alex as she looked into his eyes.

"No, that's not all. He can somewhat tell if the person in front of him is speaking the truth or not," Alex replied to Ann, but by now, both Ann and Alice had serious expressions.

"You don't need to worry girls, every skill has its limitations, and that skill got one as well.

Maximus won't be able to tell if you are telling the truth or not if the person in front of him is two ranks higher than him.

The same is true for the contract, he can't bind someone two ranks higher than himself into a contract."

Alex explained as he knew what they were thinking.

If someone has the ability to tell whether you are lying or not then you would never be able to lie to them or trick them, but the same can't be said for the other side.

The girls were somewhat relieved when they heard it.

"Anyways, his ring looked cool," Alex changed the topic with something random.

"It is the most expensive disguise artifact/ item that has been sold till now after all," Ann commented, and Alice nodded her head.

"Oh, how much was it sold for?" Alex asked with intrigue.

Although he just randomly selected a topic, he wanted to know more about it now.

"It is a top-tier S-ranked item, so it was sold for 113 billion credits," Ann replied to Alex.

"I see," Alex nodded his head.

"Maybe I should've asked Luna for more money as compensation for the incomplete mana core…." Alex's mutter was heard by both Ann and Alice who just sighed and didn't comment on that.

The money he got from the association was actually quite high for a mana core, not to mention the cost it took them to repair the building that was damaged by Alex's mana pressure.

Now, the fact that they can see through Max even when he is wearing a top-tier disguise item must be something that some people might have questions about, so let's talk about it.

Every item has a limit, and just like every item, the disguise item Max is wearing also has a limit.

It is just an S-rank item after all, how can it hide one from the eyes of people who have rank higher than that?

Not like Max was wearing it to hide from the strong people out there, he was wearing it to hide from the public as it might cause commotion if they knew that Max was in between them.

The same can be said for Lily and Grace as both of them were wearing one disguise item on their bodies.

But for Alice, Ann, and Alex, it was like there was no disguise.

These three also had a disguise on but they were not using items as Alex could do the job.

They were famous as well, much more famous than Max, due to their recent actions.

They didn't want their date to be disturbed so they decided to use disguise, and they faced no problem as they enjoyed their time to the fullest.

I guess it's too early to say that...

Alex's eyes turned sharp as he saw some disturbance in the mana near the temple.

'What is that….'

They were still 100 meters away from Lily and Grace, which means that they were 300 meters away from the temple, so the temple was still not within Alex's normal perception range.

But with his 'All-seeing eyes', he could see the mana disturbance above the temple.

The temple was high after all, and it could be seen from 300 meters away clearly.

"What's wrong, Alex?" Ann asked as she saw the change in Alex's eyes.

His relaxed eyes had turned sharp as he looked towards the temple.

Alice also looked at Alex when she heard Ann's question. She was not looking at Alex as her focus was on a red one-piece on the display of a shop, so she missed the change in Alex's expression.

"Let me check," Alex spoke, and then he focused his perception in one direction.

This was one of the ways he could increase the range as he could just spread his perception in one direction, expanding the range.

"Sigh….." Alex sighed as he found out what it was as the next second…..

""SCREEECHHH!!!""

Loud screeches of birds reverberated through the noisy market, making the market still for a second.

"I will take you guys on a date again sometime, don't worry….." Alex spoke lightly as he felt the grip of both Alice and Ann tightened on his hand.

It was not out of fright, it was out of anger and Alex could tell that, he was annoyed as well, after all, he was enjoying his time right now.

Right at that moment, the market that had gone still for a second realized what was happening and the chaos ensued...
