Alex clicked on the system dashboard to check the messages.


    [Companion Weapon: Grim Reaper''s Scythe]


    [Quality: King level weapon (upgradable)]


    [Soul Concentration: 30%]


    [Active Skill: All magic mastered by the user]


    [Passive Skill 1: Attacks include soul strike and withering effects; victims in by the scythe will be converted into undead.]


    [Passive Skill 2: The weapon can be enchanted with magic without chanting or forming magic circles.]


    [Passive Skill 3: The bell''s soul strike range and damage are increased.]


    [Passive Skill 4: The weapon has the ability to cut through anything (based on current level and below).]


    "Cut through anything?"


    Alex''s eyes zeroed in on thest feature. This "anything" could refer to weapons, equipment, creatures, and even energy forms.


    But it couldn''t exceed King level, which was almost a given. Anyone wielding a weapon above King level would undoubtedly be stronger than Alex herself!


    If she couldn''t defeat them, what good would it do to just cut their weapon?


    Alex felt a surge of joy. Her scythe had be even sharper, making it more convenient for trimming her nails in the future!


    However, the "Soul Concentration: 30%" still puzzled her. Could it be referring to a weapon spirit?


    Seeing Alex''s weapon description, Xiao Hui was stunned. The features were overwhelming.


    "I suddenly want a weapon too," Xiao Hui said enviously.


    "Your hands are good enough," Xiao Mu retorted as he walked into the hall. It wasn''t that they couldn''t use weapons, but as elemental Lords, their need for weapons wasn''t as significant.


    "You don''t know anything!"


    Xiao Hui shot back, unwilling to be outdone.


    Alex put away her scythe. The weapon''s enhancements were crucial for her. Without the scythe, she''d just be a mage.


    "Make sure to learn about the surrounding environment from the orcs. See if there are any races or kingdoms nearby."


    Alex instructed the two. Of course, the dwarf kingdom couldn''t be neglected either.


    Typically, a kingdom or empire would be surrounded by weaker races, serving as buffer zones against other major powers.


    So far, Alex hadn''t seen any two major powers adjacent to each other. They would inevitably sh over territory or other reasons, leading to the eventual extinction of one race.


    "Got it."


    The siblings knew the benefits of conquering these races were immense. If the undead could wipe out a massive force like the Orc Empire, the smaller races around it posed no threat.


    "Also, tell the undead to let the orcs handle the investigation around the Orc Empire. But those orcs must sign soul contracts to prevent leaks."


    Alex was wary of the Holy Court. If they came to the Orc Empire and saw the undead, everything would be ruined.


    But if the Holy Court''s temr knights saw orcs, they wouldn''t think much of it. Even if they interrogated the orcs, the soul contracts would automatically trigger, erasing their souls and leaving the temr knights with nothing.


    Now that Alex had mastered soul magic, such contracts were a piece of cake. She could have the alchemy warlocks develop them into scrolls or other portable items.


    "Got it."


    Xiao Mu and Xiao Hui nodded repeatedly.


    "The most critical area to watch is the Orc royal city. Also, keep an eye on the hobgoblin royal city. These are ces the temr knights have been."


    Alex added, though the siblings were already aware and needed no further reminders.


    The dwarf kingdom hadn''t been visited by temr knights, likely due to the seven ns'' division. The Holy Court didn''t want to deal with that mess. The dwarves'' strength wasn''t high, and they had no King level, making it not worth the effort.


    So the dwarf area was rtively safe. The only concern was the Deste Mountains, where they might encounter the Justice Alliance.


    Another area to watch was the Savage ins north of Twinface Mountain. Once the Minotaur camp''s intelligence was clear and it was far from the Beast Empire, Alex''s next target would be to wipe them out.


    Alex chatted with the siblings a bit more. By the time everything was arranged, it was gettingte.


    The three, exhausted from the day''s work, nned to have dinner and rest early.


    [Blood Moon in the sky, darkness descends]


    The clouds began to disperse, revealing twinkling stars and a massive, eerie red moon.


    Darkness enveloped thend, and the red moonlight added a touch of light to the ckened ground, making it even more eerie.


    "What a big moon, and it''s a full moon tonight!"


    Xiao Hui stood at the pce entrance, gazing up at the red moon.


    Alex remembered the first full moon when her castle was visited by a pack of lv5 Standard Moon Silver Wolves. They could transform into werewolves under the full moon, posing a significant threat to her at the time.


    Times had changed. The Moon Silver Wolves were extinct, her small castle had be arge city, and she had grown from a Standard level lord to a King level lord.


    Even now, her undead included bone beast werewolves summoned back then.


    "Let''s go have a meal."


    Alex called out, turning towards the dining hall.


    The siblings quickly followed, diving into their meal.


    In contrast, Alex ate much more elegantly. She didn''t need to eat but did so to enjoy the food and remind herself she was still human.


    After dinner, the siblings returned to their respective quarters.


    Alex stretched and headed upstairs.


    Only the dark elves remained downstairs, cleaning up the dishes.


    In her room, Alex stripped off her clothes, intending to sleep soundly. But she suddenly remembered she hadn''t bathed since returning from the orc battlefield.


    "I heard soaking in a bath relieves fatigue?"


    Alex looked down at her firm breasts and smooth legs. She remembered the pce had a bathhouse. Why not try it out?


    Getting dressed was too much hassle. After all, she was a King level now; who needed to walk?


    A white blur vanished from the room, and the next second, Alex teleported to the entrance of the women''s bathhouse.


    She didn''t even wear shoes, walking in barefoot.


    The bathhouse, like her wardrobe, had an automatic cleaning function. The water in the bath was fresh daily, no need for manual changes—very convenient.


    Alex walked to the edge of the bath, lightly touching the water with her toes.


    "Perfect temperature."


    "Wait, I''m a King level! Even bathing inva wouldn''t feel hot!"


    With that, Alex jumped in, leaning against the edge and enjoying the bath.


    Clear water rippled, revealing a beautiful scene beneath the surface, with steam rising above.


    "This is definitely not like my bathroom!"
