Petricia was following beside him. If Emily was learning what kind of civilization lived here before, Alex was busy tinkering with the crystal.

He used his hammer to break one of the chairs apart, and then from the pieces of it, he started experimenting.

The first thing he did was think about what kind of stimulus was created when they came to the building.

\'When I first arrived, I fell in the building. Is it because of that? The crystal absorbs kinetic energy?\' But Alex quickly shook his head; this didn\'t make sense.

If this is true, doesn\'t that mean those living here would need to hit the house every day to make it glow?

Based on Alex\'s observation, the crystal would give out enough light, not too bright that it hurt normal people\'s eyes, nor it too little that makes everything dark.

Since he doesn\'t know what kind of species lived here, Alex used humans as a comparison.

Same with Emily, he also concluded the species living here was humanoid, and Alex also thought it was possible they were the same species as him, a human.

The crystal should have some function for temperature regulation since it felt warm to his touch. This means whoever lived with her in the past will want to activate the crystal regularly.

Knock! Knock! Despite what he was thinking, Alex still decided to test the idea; after all, it\'s better just to make sure of it.

He banged the crystal toward the wall.

Alex even tried to punch it and grip it strongly in his hand, but nothing changed.

The next thing he tried was the material from the tent; he tried to put some contact with the crystal for some time, but it also did not give any reaction.

\'The only thing left now is light, and Olivia\'s abilities.\'

He turned on the flashlight from his phone and then shot it toward the crystal. One minute, two minutes, five minutes—nothing happened.

"It seems my only choice now is going back to Big Sis and asking her to cast some healing into the crystal," Alex mumbled.

"Do you need me to bring Mistress here, King?"

"Mistress??? You mean Olivia?" Alex asked, feeling confused by her remark.

"Well, she is not the queen, but she is one of the King\'s women, so I thought it\'s appropriate to call her mistress based on your culture."

Alex\'s mouth opened wide, and he froze upon hearing Petricia\'s remark. If he were drinking water now, he would have spat it all over Petricia\'s pretty face.

Seeing Alex\'s confused expression, Petricia asked, "Did I do something wrong, King?"

"NO! No, that is not what I meant. How could you even think Olivia is my woman? That is wrong, Petricia."

"But King, based on your last interaction and how she was looking at you, I am sure she likes you. If it\'s in our goblin culture, that would mean she is your woman now."

"What? Liking someone means you become his woman automatically?"

"It\'s not because of the liking, King, but any woman that a goblin lord finds appealing will automatically become his woman, as long as they are not married.

But I took that conclusion not just because of my culture. I have watched some movies to learn more about the King\'s culture. I learned if people like each other they will then become a couple."

Alex didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry; he felt his sister had some bad influence on the goblin. He didn\'t need to ask to know where Petricia got that kind of love movie.

"You are not wrong; she does like me, but it\'s not that kind of like, Petricia.

She is just thinking of me as a brother; it\'s what we call familial love. Don\'t you have that too?"

"Yes, we have that, King, but doesn\'t familial love only come from those we are related to by blood?"

"There is a saying in my people, \'blood is thicker than water,\' it\'s not wrong, but that doesn\'t mean only those related by blood to us can become our family.

For her and me, everyone in the Suzaku guild is our family, so it\'s not like what you think, Petricia. Don\'t you call her that again, just call her lady."

A bad feeling then came to his mind, making him ask, "Did you call her my mistress in front of other people?"

Petricia shook her head, "No, King, only a few people like, for example, Lady Emily, Lady Quartz, and Lady Olivia."

"You what?"

"Yes, sometimes Lady Emily brings Lady Quartz and Olivia with her when she comes to our village."

\'The heck, she never told me this!\' Alex cursed in his mind but then remembered not finding anything weird in their interaction.

There was some awkwardness between him and Olivia, but Alex thought it was just because of their last interaction.

"How did they react when you first called her that?" Alex asked, feeling curious.

"Nothing, Lady Emily laughed it off, Lady Quartz didn\'t seem to hear it since she was busy training some of the child goblins how to use a sword."

"Nothing? Did Olivia not hear what you said?"

"No, I am sure she heard what I said since I was addressing her at that time, but other than turning silent for a moment the first time, she said nothing afterward."

This made Alex feel puzzled, "Forget it; next time just call her Lady like the others, it will be a problem if the Queen hears about it."

"Alright, King, I will do that. Do you have any further orders?"

"How was your investigation?"

When Alex was testing the crystal, Petricia was snooping around the area, looking for anything interesting.

Petricia then took out multiple items from her storage ring and laid them on the desk. There were some dinner utensils colored in green.
