After Alex woke up from his rest, Abbie told him about the bounty that was placed on their heads by the Beast King, Beowul. Alex's reaction surprised Abbie because the little boy merely shrugged at the news, as if he didn't really care about it.
"Master, the Eastern Alliance is being pressured by the Windsor and Lione Empires," Alex explained. "The Shalan Empire is at the edge of the Western part of the continent. It would be very hard for them to extend their reach over these parts."
"Even if the beastkin tribes were to hear this news, I could easily return to Earth as a last resort to escape their pursuit," Alex added. "We don't need to fear the Beast King, for his power is only limited within his kingdom."
Abbie blinked once then twice as she looked at the young boy in front of her. The way he spoke was not something a little boy could easily say. It was as if Abbie was talking to a grown up man who was very knowledgeable about the ways of the world.
