章 312: The lord of Sea Lions

Alex pushed those thoughts aside for the time being. She stood up and made her way towards the main fortress, intending to visit Ruby in the far north.

Upon arriving, she found Ruby still occupied with other matters. Not wanting to interrupt, Alex decided to wait. It was then that she received unexpected news: a Lord had been discovered on a small island.

"Where is this... extraterrestrial visitor?" Alex asked, turning to a nearby Arctic Tigerfolk.

"This one's on an uninhabited island to the northwest," the Arctic Tigerfolk replied respectfully.

Alex pondered this. This Lord posed no immediate threat nor offered any particular advantage. Whether to eliminate them or not seemed like a decision driven more by whims than strategy. 

Without the promise of system rewards, Alex wasn't keen on unnecessary bloodshed. This Lord wasn't causing any trouble, but leaving them to develop unchecked in the vicinity didn't sit well with her either.
