Since the prince had confirmed Richard's power, he began his plan. Of course, he couldn't be too slow, considering the Lexon Group had created an ultimatum that the Empress had to join them within fourteen days.

Hence, he sped up the process, hoping that they had enough time to grab enough attention before the time limit.

In the first three days, the prince asked Richard to upgrade many people's skills, establishing his prestige first as well as credibility.

From F Rank Skill to B Rank Skills, everyone knew that the prince had someone that could rank up their skills. A person only had one chance. This was incredibly frustrating if that person was still able to get stronger in the future. After all, they would rather upgrade an A Rank Skill to an S Rank Skill than a C Rank or a B Rank Skill.

However, the world had changed completely. After the apocalypse, they couldn't level up anymore, let alone get a new skill from a Skill Card.

Hence, the chance that they got from Richard could turn their life around.

Since they couldn't get stronger anymore, it was better to upgrade their strongest skill, which would give them at least a twenty to thirty percent boost in their overall strength. This was enough to make them a bit more useful in people's eyes.

Richard's reputation soared through the roof as he became the most sought-after person in the country. Of course, everyone had to go through the prince if they wanted to get this chance.

"Hu…" Richard let out a long sigh as if he was tired.

"Are you alright?" A young woman, who had been guarding him this whole time, asked with a worried expression. She was one of the Mythical Rank Experts they had. Not only did she have the skill to protect Richard, but she had the looks to seduce him.

The prince's plan was to make Richard loyal to them through any means. From the best facilities, food, and woman, he would give them to Richard so that he couldn't escape from the prince's palm.

Of course, this bodyguard had no problem doing all those jobs because she was one of the people who had benefited from him. He upgraded her A Rank Skill to an S Rank Skill, proving Richard's capability. Of course, the prince had to bleed because S Rank Skill needed at least twenty A Rank Skill Cards, and in her case, they had to fork out thirty five A Rank Skill Cards.

Still, Skill Cards couldn't be used anymore other than this way, so in the end, everything was worth it.

Hence, she had to take care of Richard's problem and make sure that he didn't come to hate this power.

"Do you want to rest first?"

Richard smiled while wiping the sweat on his forehead. 'I'm fine. The prince is so good… He's done so many things for me. I feel bad if I can't…"

Richard lowered his head, feeling sad as if he wanted to repay him. Of course, because of the no lie rule, the sentence didn't finish.

However, it was enough for the bodyguard to understand his meaning.

She bent down with a sweet smile and said, "Please don't worry about it. The prince wants you to be well. Please don't overwork yourself. For now, I'll inform them that you're going to rest for an hour."

"Mhm…" Richard looked like he still wanted to continue, but in the end, he dropped the idea and agreed to the rest. "I understand."

She nodded and walked to the door to inform them about his condition. But the moment she opened the door and was about to announce one hour of rest, she noticed the prince coming to her.

"P-Prince!"

"How is he?"

"Is it alright if I stop the operation for an hour?"

The prince knew that she wanted to give some explanation and immediately agreed with her.

After she announced it, she went together with the prince to a quieter place.

"So, how is he?" The prince asked again.

"He was sweating too much. As expected, it took a toll on his body. However, he sees you as his savior and wants to repay you. If I hadn't stopped him earlier, he would have continued working."

"Mhm." The prince didn't show it, but he felt happy when he heard Richard's sentiment. "You make sure that he's not overworking himself."

"Yes, I understand."

"Then, how is your progress with the other goal?"

The woman paused for a moment while scratching the back of her head.

"So, it's still useless…" The prince felt a bit annoyed. He was planning to marry this woman to Richard, binding him to the royal family. But it seemed there was no progress, making him reconsider his choice.

The woman hurriedly explained. "It's not that I didn't do it. When I tried to approach him during the night, he immediately covered himself as if he was afraid to experience the same thing as in the past."

The prince pinched the bridge of his nose. "We can't really access all the data that has been lost during the apocalypse, so it's impossible to find his record, considering he's from Indonesia and got trafficked somewhere. It's impossible for us to go there to download the database of that country.

"At the same time, we can't really rush the treatment for his trauma as well." The prince was contemplating, trying to find a way to bind Richard to the royal family. "For now, you will continue taking care of him. Make sure that he feels comfortable."

"I understand." The woman politely nodded.

"Remember this. The reason why you have an S Rank Skill is the Royal Family, and you are valued right now because of the Royal Family. If you fuck up this job, I don't need to tell you about the consequences, right?"

"Yes." The woman hurriedly lowered her head, knowing her position.

"Good. If you succeed in this job, not only will you become an important woman because of his status, but you will also become a noble. Remember that!"

"Yes, Sir! I won't disappoint you."

"Good. Go back to him!"

The woman politely nodded as she walked back to Richard, making sure he was fine.
