Level Infinity Weakest King

Bandis arrived too right after which he acted as if he was the one that cured Rex and Elina.

Of course, he did after Rex ordered him by using Telepathy.

Elina and Alex were fooled easily too and they were convinced after which they left immediately.

Even Bandis and Zor left Rex because they wanted him to rest.

Furthermore, it seemed like Rex was tired and was just waiting for all of them to leave so that he could get a little bit of rest.

'Looks like it will take quite a lot of time for me to control the poison completely...', was what he was thinking.

The poison that he had consumed earlier was something that couldn't be thought lightly.

It was one of the strongest poison for some reason and right now he had already mastered it and had made it a part of his body not long ago.

But he had yet to completely gain control over it.

Once that would be done, he would be able to use skills that are derived using poison.

He could also perform alchemy or creates essential medinces just by the usage of Poisons but to him the most useful thing was to use it as a step stone to grow stronger.

Furthermore he was planning on releasing all the seals sometime soon after hearing the gargoyle King say something that resembles Nemesis.

'If he were to come back... then u can't fight with just the little power that I have...', he thought.

But there seemed something else that bugged him even more and that was probably what he was giving more importance to right now.

'Who... and why would anyone attack mom?', that was the biggest question he had.

It was without a doubt an assassination attempt and that too it was done in broad day light.

So Rex was confident enough to think that it was done by someone who had enough power to back themselves even while facing the great kingdom of Rhone.

But he had no idea about who it was exactly.

'To think that someone sneaked inside the castle and places it in the vase...'

'Who could be so talented?', he wondered.

He was wary because he had already laid a protected array that would let him know if any intruder were to arrive.

Not to mention, even if someone was to bring something that never belonged to the palace, then he would be able to identify that too.

So it was definitely weird that someone was able to escape Rex's detection.

That was why he was thinking that the person could have been highly skilled and probably that was why his powers didn't work.

But he wasn't completely sure about that because it seemed like there was something more to it.

If the person was indeed as strong as he was thinning, then he could essentially finish if the task by just attacking Elina, so it was weird for someone of that caliber to do something like this.

There could have been millions of reasons for which it was done, but there was not even a single clue that said that someone did enter the palace.

'Wait... was it the work of someone from the castle itself?'

All of a sudden his thoughts were directed at the maids and everyone that worked in the palace.

But he knew that nothing could be hidden from the detection so they couldn't have brought anything with them.

So his doubt was fading slowly when all of a sudden he realised that there was indeed a way to prevent the array from detecting the foreign particle.

"Don't tell me..."

"The poison was brought in the name of medicines?", he was shocked when he thought about this.

He now definitely knew what could have happened and then started to suspect the head doctor who had been absent for quite a while now.

'Ya... it must have been the head doctor...'

Right after thinking that he used the skill teleportation and vanished from the area.

He was already aware of the place where the head doctor stayed so he almost immediately reached that area in order to capture him.

But the moment he reached there, all his anger and doubts suddenly disappeared.

"Now... you will fine.", said the doctor with a happy face.

"Thank you doctor... but your fees...", the patient who was a human after getting a bandage on her right arm, had her head lowered while talking about the fees.

"Haha, it's fine. Don't worry about it. You can give me anything you want if you don't have money...", the doctor said with a kind voice.

The lady smiled and the rushed towards her home and came back almost immediately.

"Here... rice...", she said with a smile.

"Ah? A plate of rice?", he asked while looking at it.

"Yes, that was all I had in the home...", she said with a lowered gaze.

"Hmm... then it's fine. I don't want anything now. You can pay me later in the future...", he said and returned the rice so that she could eat.

Her expression changed again and she smiled right after which she bowed and left.

Rex, who was hiding behind a tree that was a bit far away from all the homes that were present, smiled a bit too.

'What an interesting person...'

He was quite delighted to see him.

"He understandns the minds of the people well..."

"..."

Though he could see and hear some people badmouth him because he even took money from poor ones, Rex understood what the man aimed at.

'If they really wanted to beg, then they would just do it...'

'He doesn't want them to feel down... that is why he asks for at least something in return which will satisfy their hearts too.'

When Rex looked at him again, he understood that the person wasn't absent just because he wanted to.

It was probably because he was quite busy in these chores.

Though, he found that the doctor had just returned from his travel today and was heading to the palace.

"I can't believe that I doubted such a man...", he said with a low voice and almost immediately used the skill Teleport.

Right after that he came back to his room and sat in the same posture while thinking a bit more about the situation which he had at hand.

"Hmm, there is definitely someone trying to harm mother..."

He thought about it a bit more but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out who it was probably because he had no idea about the allies and foes of Rhone.

That was because he focused on his strength only and the knowledge from his masters were also a bit old due to which he couldn't rely on them completely at times like this.

So the only thing that he thought was to drop the ideanof finding the person who tried to harm because that would only be a waste of time right now when he had no idea about them.

"Thenperson would automatically come to bame mother once again and when that happens..."

"He will meet his DOOM!"

He was smiling and thinking a bit till now but the moment he decided what he would do to the person who tried to game her earlier, his expression completely changed.

His eyes shined with red light and for a moment it seemed as if he could murder anyone and anytime.

Nevertheless, there was no use in getting tensed right now and thus he decided to stick to his mother's side and protect her.

He stood up immediately after resting for no more than 10 minutes and walked out.

Each and every time he wondered about the person, his anger would resurface because of which he pretended as if he didn't know anything about the incident for the time being.

Although it seemed as if Alex wasn't as careless as Rex thought.

He was already doing searchings all over the palace to see anything suspicious.

It seemed as if he had some idea about how the things might have happened.

That was why he was specifically checking the areas where Elina would visit quite commonly.

Also, he did a thorough check of the maids and other people who associated with her like the gardener or chefs or others.

But he ended up getting no result. Rex kept watching him worry and find out the source of the poison.

'Well, should I go and tell him about these things?'

Rex was wondering if it was best to tell all the stuff to him thruthfully.

'But... that would only make him worried even more...", he said in a low voice.

"Hmm... it's best not to tell him because he would start worrying unnecessarily...", he said again.

He thought that he was telling to himself in his mind, but little did he know that everything was said out loud which reached Alex's ears since he was walking his way.

"What do you mean by that Rex?"

"Eh!", Rex flinched the moment he found Alex right in front of him.

"Tell me, what did you mean by unnecessary worrying?"

"That's..."

'I'm so very fucked!'

"..."
