Lirian's lips spread into a devilish grin as he faced Lady Liberia.

"I said that you'd get to see your daughter again if you go with my plan," Lirian said, "It's as simple as that," he said nonchalantly.

His nonchalant attitude however did not impress Lady Liberia, he was just like those snot nosed nobles she met during her stay in the major cities.

Those nobles all thought the world of themselves, and looked down on everyone else, they thought that due to their status and upbringing no one could compare to them, they even looked down on people with a greater cultivation than themselves, simply because of their status.

Listening to Lirian she felt that he was exactly the same, because of his status he didn't even place House Kurt in his eyes.

She wouldn't have cared ordinarily, but currently, the man before her was playing with her daughter's life.

"I'll do my part and the two of you will do yours, once the two of you leave, and convince the other leaders of the alliance to leave the alliance, all the other less prominent powers will also start to depart," Lirian said without caring for the thoughts of Lady Liberia.

"But first I need something from the two of you, you can call it a down payment for the favour I'm going to provide for the two of you," said Lirian.

Lady Liberia started to frown, as things stood her family's artefacts were already in Lirian's hands, there wasn't anything that she could offer that held more value.

"Each of you will provide me with 500 food pills," Lirian said in a serious tone, but his request was only met with stunned silence.

Lady Liberia and Lord Grant both blinked not sure if what they heard was correct, it wasn't because the request was outrageous but rather because of how simple it was.

Food pills were one of the easiest things to make in alchemy, even a novice could easily make them, and they weren't worth much.

500 food pills wouldn't be sold for more than a couple dozen silver coins, for people of their status that was merely pocket change.

Lirian could feel their confusion at his request so he chuckled lightly and explained, "I used up quite a bit of energy when I played with House Kurt yesterday, and I can't access one of their cultivation chambers to restore my energy,"

Lirian was planning on going into the forests to burn the trees and restore his energy reserves, but now he found a much easier and faster way to restore his energy.

The food pills were frequently used by adventures, in Izlandi's memories he found that it would take one and a half pills to restore a peak novice's energy, a peak novice who only cultivated a single centre of power would only have about 300 units of energy.

With that Lirian was able to easily calculate the amount of energy each pill would provide him.

Each pill would provide roughly 200 units of energy, so even if Lirian was completely drained of energy all that he would require to restore his energy was 400 pills, the rest was just for back-up, while 'unconscious cultivator' could gather energy while he fought it wouldn't be as fast.

If he ate the pills and used 'unconscious cultivator' to absorb them, he would be able to restore his energy rapidly even in the middle of a battle.

"I hope that the two of you can bring me the pills quickly, if the gates to the keep don't open by tomorrow, I'll enact my plan," said Lirian.

Lord Grant seemed willing to comply and surprisingly so did Lady Liberia, a strange smile crept on her face when she thought of Lirian's request.

'He really is nothing more than a snot nosed brat,' she thought viciously, she was feeling so worried about Lirian yet now he was offering her the perfect opportunity to silence him.

All she had to do now was use a powerful poison to coat some of the food pills and he'd be dead in just a few seconds, once she was done with him then she could move on to silencing Lord Grant.

Lord Grant, however, noticed her strange smile, and he understood exactly what she was thinking, he quickly turned to Lirian and spoke in a respectful voice, "My lord please allow me to provide all your food pills," he said flashing a look of suspicion at Lady Liberia.

Lord Grant was happy to help Lirian, due to his current circumstances he was happy to help anyone that had a chance to save his family.

Even if Lirian died in his attempt to free Lady Liberia's daughter, he felt fairly certain that Lirian was someone important, from the way that Lirian spoke and the power he wielded.

If House Kurt ended up killing someone so important, he was sure that it would bring a great deal of trouble to House Kurt.

Either way it would be extremely beneficial for him to leave the alliance, without bringing any trouble to his House.

"There's no need for that," said Lirian with an air of confidence around him, "If either of you betrays me, or tries to pull anything on me, it won't end well for you," Lirian said in a cold voice.

Lady Liberia felt the coldness pierce into her bones, and she couldn't stop herself from trembling slightly, it felt like every thought of hers was completely seen through by Lirian.

Her heart started to race and her mouth suddenly went dry, she looked at Lirian with shaking eyes, while trying not to show her fear, but it seemed impossible to hide anything before Lirian, it was like all her thoughts were on display and easily seen through.

"That said, if either of you don't believe me feel free to do whatever you want to get in my way," as he spoke a cruel smile stretched across his lips.

"After all, it will be so much more fun if someone tries to betray me," Lirian said and slowly climbed out from his seat and walked up to the window.

"Seriously I don't mind if you try to pull something, but just remember that if you do I'll have to start playing one of my games with your Houses," Lirian smiled at them lightly and he slowly started to levitate as he reached the window.

"Bring the food pills here tomorrow," Lirian said as he flew through the window without waiting for a response from the two, "I can't wait to see what choice the two of you make," his last words to them lingered in the room even after he was gone.

Lady Liberia and Lord Grant looked to each other for a brief second but neither of them said a thing, they were both lost in thought about what they should do.

Before long the two also left the room while still maintaining their silence, that meeting with Lirian was a strange experience for the both of them.

Never before had either of them had such a strange encounter in their lives, even as the sun went down and the two returned to their homes they couldn't rid themselves of the image in their minds of the silver-haired man.
