Now, it's not needed to talk about the reason why Alex and Ann returned in the morning, and if it was not enough to tell then Ann's fatigued but bright smile told it all.

Alice had also noticed the change in Ann's demeanor, Ann who was already mature now looked more mature.

Alice knew what would've happened as it had happened to her as well, and she was happy for Ann, but the news was important to tell so she told them.

"Hmmmm," Alex hummed with a thoughtful expression.

"The best thing we could do is reach there before Argon, and enter the gate before him, or with him, but we will need to do something about you guys…."

Alex spoke as he freed his hands from both Ann and Alice's hold before he held them from behind and pulled them closer.

"You guys can't control your powers yet, after all…."

Alex muttered as he rested his back on the sofa, but then he felt some movement near his leg so he looked down, only to see Noctura rubbing her head on his right thigh.

"What's wrong, pup? Here, let me feel that soft fur of yours," Alex spoke as he took his hands from behind Alice and Ann, and cupped Nuctura's face with them.

He got up from the sofa and sat down on the ground as he kissed Noctura's forehead.

"Come here," Alex patted his lap, and Noctura hurriedly lay down with her head on his lap.

Alice and Ann who looked at it smiled gently before they moved down from the sofa and sat beside Alex, resting their heads on both of his shoulders.

They kept sitting there, enjoying the warm atmosphere until Alex snapped his finger.

"Perfect, we can do that," Alex muttered causing all of them to look at him curiously.

"What is it?" Alice asked curiously while the other two also looked at Alex.

"You guys will have the suppression braces on, I will set it to low SSS rank, and then we won't have to worry about you not being able to control your powers."

Alex answered.

It was not something one needed to think too much about.

He had the suppression braces, he could simply take them out and let Alice and Ann wear them, and the problem was solved.

"So, we are going to Indigo Country tomorrow?" Ann asked as she closed her eyes again while resting her head on Alex's shoulder.

"Yes," Alex nodded his head and Alice who heard Alex also nodded her head.

"Let's get some rest, we are going to clear an SS rank gate after all," Alex patted both Alice and Ann on the back as he spoke.

"I don't want to sleep alone…." Ann muttered in a low voice but Alex and Alice heard it clearly.

Alice who heard it widened her eyes.

'Is she trying to hoard him all for herself?!?!'

Alice then quickly clung closer to Alex as she let her body relax on him before she murmured in a low voice as well.

"I don't want to sleep as well…."

Ann looked at Alice from the corner of her eyes, and she happened to meet Alice's eyes.

Both of them smiled at each other before they looked at Alex with puppy eyes.

But then they heard another voice.

"I don't want to sleep alone as well, Master….."

All of their eyes turned to Noctura.

They kept staring at her, causing the fur on her back to slump same as her ears.

'Did I say something wrong….?'

She wondered but then Alex started chuckling, and so did Ann.

Alice just smiled as she shook her head.

"What are we even teaching her….?"

She murmured, but Alex just shrugged.

"It's good, isn't it?

Let's all sleep together."

Alex spoke with a smile before he stood up and patted Noctura's head.

"Let's go pup, we need to take the best spot on the bed."

Alex spoke and Noctura's eyes brightened.

"Yes!" Noctura nodded as she rushed toward the room but then she paused.

"Um, which room, Master?"

Noctura asked in confusion.

Although they slept alone in their rooms, each room had a large bed, so Noctura wanted to know which room they were going to.

"My room," Alex spoke with a smile.

"Ok!" Noctura nodded and rushed to his room.

She wanted to sleep in the middle of the bed.

Alex, Alice, and Ann also followed behind, and that day they slept all together.

No funny business, just a peaceful sleep with all of them sleeping on the same bed.

Alex was sleeping in the middle with Noctura right above him.

Alice and Ann were sleeping on either side of him as they had half of their bodies over him.

All of them had a good sleep, Alex as well since had the luxury of sleeping with Noctura over him, who was like a soft blanket, and two beauties in his arms.

Any man would give their life just to exchange places with him, but well, even if they did give their lives, they weren't going to get it.

.......................................…

"The number one guild and the number one force of the world are going to try clearing the same gate on the same day!"

"Is it finally time that we decided which one is the strongest?!"

"Is it just a coincidence, or is there something deeper at play here?"

"Are the rumors of there being a gate ranked higher than S-rank really true?"

"Are there raiders with rank above S-rank?"

"Are there enough rankers that are above S-rank to fight off the monsters inside of those gates?"

Many questions started coming up.

After all, the movement of the two of the strongest forces on the planet was not something that could go unnoticed by everyone.

Instead, it was the center of attention.

That attention was then shifted to the gate that both of the forces were trying to clear and the news that the associations tried to hide finally came out.

The news about there being gate ranked higher than S-rank.

The general public started to panic, after all, no one knew where the next SS-rank gate would spawn.

What if it was close to them?

Will there be someone powerful enough to stop the monsters if the gate breaks?

The world was in a panic, but then a piece of news was released, news about there being raiders that had the rank called SS-rank.

The association heads started giving online speeches about how they had strong raiders, raiders strong enough to be able to defeat anything that came out of those gates.

"Humanity will never lose!"

This is what they shouted again and again.

This instantly brought relief to the general citizen, but there were some people who knew the truth about the world situation, but for now, they didn't think much about the world as they were living through the rare peaceful moments they had.

Yes, the people we are talking about are Alex, Alice, and Ann.

Right now, they were resting inside a plane as they moved toward the Indigo country....

'Time to clear an SS-ranked gate.'

Alex thought with a smile as he looked out of the window.
