Gacha Sovereign

"I said it already…" Alex let out a long sigh. "I don\'t have any plan regarding that for the time being."

"That\'s…" She looked down with a sad expression as if Alex just wronged her. "That\'s a no, I guess."

"Yes." Alex nodded.

"I see. I will ask my father to distribute the reward other than the Spirit Crystals. I don\'t know if we can replace everything with herbs, but I believe there will be some Array Plates and weapons to cover the cost of your traps." She sighed.

"Then, much appreciated."

"I will return first." She walked down while feeling down before remembering something. "That\'s right. There will be a huge auction one year from now. One of our plans is to give you one item from the auction, no matter what it is. You can consider this as a part of the reward."

After explaining, she handed her a token and a letter to him. "This is the golden token for our VVIP customer while the letter acts as an invitation. You can come if you want and vice versa, but I hope you can come." Nella then bowed to him once again before leaving the room.

Alex nodded and stored them in his Inventory while watching her back.

As soon as she came out, she found Aria waiting outside the room.

Before she could open her mouth, Aria showed a recommendation letter and gave it to her. The moment she saw the seal, she realized it came from the Unsurpassed Blade Sect.

Surprised, she looked at Aria with her mouth wide open as if asking her, \'Is this the recommendation letter?\'

Aria smiled and nodded.

Confirming the letter\'s real identity, she gently nodded and whispered. "Thank you."

"You\'re welcome. The one who issued that letter was the peak master of the Sword Blossom Peak, the peak where Nyx and I live."

The sadness disappeared as this letter brought another kind of hope to her heart. As if she found another plan, she smiled and left the room.

"Oh, my heart." Aria then teased Alex with what just happened.

"Stop it. I feel there is a hidden intention regarding that matter, so I obviously will draw the line." Alex sighed.

"A hidden intention, eh?"

"Do you think her feelings were genuine?" Alex looked at Aria with a serious expression. "If you say yes, I am going to marry you off tomorrow."

"…" Aria fell silent and shrugged. "Fine, fine. I will stop. Anyway, we have gotten what we need, so we will return to the sect after getting the reward, right?"

"Yeah. Recover your energy since we are going straight to the sect to continue your training."

"I understand."

During the night, Nella came again while wearing a slightly sexy outfit while handing Alex a Space Ring. "There are ten million Spirit Crystals, ten Rank 8 Array Plates, four pairs of sword and spear, and ten medicinal herbs. This is the only thing we can spare. That\'s why we give you the extra auction item. Considering this auction is a huge one, the items will be good, so I am sure there will be something that catches your attention. I will be waiting for you one year from now."

Alex calmly nodded his head and took the Space Ring as if he didn\'t notice her outfit. "Thank you for the reward. It far surpassed my expectation."

"Of course. Although it\'s just a potential, I may become a Rank 2 God in the future, so that alone is enough to thank you for all of this. Still, do you want to reconsider me as a bonus? You will get a rich and talented wife, you know."

"Nope." Alex shrugged.

"…" She sighed. "We have finished dealing with the three families too, and according to our information, only those who came with us during the mission know about this, so they don\'t know it yet. In addition, no one knows your contribution other than Millman, me, Mother, and Father. I believe you won\'t get any trouble from the three families."

"Thank you, I appreciate it."

She then nodded before leaving the room.

Alex then sat on the bed before a blue notification appeared in front of him.

[Fufu, one more heart has been broken. Rip in peace, love.]

"So, you want to tease me too?"

[Because it\'s too funny. I can see that she is not genuine, so I will be shameless enough to say something like this. Still, this type of rule always sucks. People will see you as trash when you are at the bottom, and those who flock on you when you are at the top just want your talent and abilities, not you.]

"Yeah."

[I want to inform you that we have gotten a clue for the next Fire World where you can use it to enhance your Fire Authority once more. This one is a bit unique, so prepare for a huge fight. If I am not wrong, it\'s related to its own sun…Anyway, why don\'t you just absorb the sun\'s energy?]

"It\'s different. I will be lying if I say it\'s not formed by Fire Energy, but it\'s still hopeless. I have no way to absorb it because it\'s formed due to a huge disturbance in the past. The energy is far more turbulent than what I need."

[Either way, you haven\'t forgotten to visit your Master, right?]

"Of course. I will go there as soon as I leave this world." Alex nodded with a serious expression. "I will visit him after this, but there is something more important that I need to do. I am required to go to Encore once again before visiting him."

[Is it not settled yet? I can\'t really access your memory about this. I have done everything I can, but I simply have no clue, so I have stopped doing it a few months ago.]

"You can say it\'s the work of the previous master of this Gacha System. Anyway, don\'t think much about it. Let\'s consider it a secret between both of me."

Lin Xingzhi paused for a second before understanding what he meant completely.

[In that case, let\'s move on to the next topic. Considering it\'s almost ten months out here since the last time I have given you the report, I should talk about this first. There are a few bad news and good news. Unlike the usual way, I will report the bad news first.]

Alex narrowed his eyes and nodded. "Please."

[The first bad news is…I have noticed a crack in the seal the previous you used. In other words, the beast would come sooner or later. And the problem is the fact that we only have less than one hundred years left.]

"I will work even harder from now. Are the hundred years…"

[It\'s Eulja\'s time.]

"We don\'t have a long time." Alex nodded. "For now, I will increase my prowess first, so when I reach God King Stage, I won\'t be weaker than my previous self. In case I can reach the next stage after that, I will beat the beast according to the plan."

[I believe in you. The second bad news is about the Palm God. I don\'t know what he is thinking, but he is trying to do something weird during this period, so I might become a bit busy dealing with this matter for the moment.]

"I know. You need to be careful since I can\'t really do anything right now."

[Sure. Let\'s move on to the third one. It\'s regarding Sherry. Sherry has become the princess of a beast kingdom there due to various reasons. When I wanted to bail her out, she asked me to stop and let her do this. She also asked me to hide it, but I couldn\'t.]

"May I know the reason?" Alex took a few deep breaths to calm his heart down.

[The Beast God in charge of that world is a God King. He must know that Sherry is with you, so there won\'t be anything big regarding marriage. Our Eulja also has prepared for a war against that world if something happens.]

"I see. Keep her safe for me and update her status from time to time. Tell her to not forget to cultivate the Fire Authority."

[Yes. She said she wants to control the Beast World to help you in the war, so that\'s the reason she chose to take this risk. I apologize for not telling you sooner.]

"It\'s fine. She is my wife, not a doll. All of you too. In fact, I like how all of you can act without me making the decision. As long as it\'s for the family, I won\'t say anything unless it\'s something too big." Alex answered with a very deep meaning.

[I understand. I will tell her that you have approved her action. Alright, enough with this depressing news. Move on to the good ones. First of all, Letizia has officially become a God Rank Expert. According to her, Evelyn and Rose will follow suit before you return from that world.]

"Has she joined Eulja?"

[Yes. She is currently with the Ice Phoenix Tribe.]

"I see. I will visit her when I return. And say congratulations to her for me."

[Sure thing. Then, the second good news is about Alicia and Firia. Both have made remarkable progress. According to my information, Alicia has finished her task and met Firia. They then finish Firia\'s mission together. What is surprising is their combat skill. Despite having opposite elements, the two elements are in harmony. Well, you can see them when we reunite in Eulja.]

"I am looking forward to it."

[Third news. I don\'t know if it\'s good news or not, but Anna\'s and Anya\'s grandparents want to meet you. They have prepared everything necessary.]

"I understand. I will make time as soon as I have finished everything." Alex nodded.

[That\'s all. You have worked hard in this world, so you should have a rest.]

"Alright." Alex nodded and the blue screen disappeared. He took a deep breath and thought about what he needed to do after this.

…

The next day, in front of the Luzear Family\'s mansion stood four people.

"Then, thank you for the hospitality." Alex and Aria clasped their hands to Alcea and Nella, who saw them off.

"Yes, take care and thank you for the help," Alcea replied with a smile while Nella only waved her hand and remained silent.

Alex and Aria nodded before leaving the mansion, heading straight to their sect.

Meanwhile, Alcea glanced at Nella. "So, how do you feel when the man rejects you first?"

"It\'s sour obviously. I have never placed any importance on all my suitors\' feelings, but now I have felt it myself. Although it\'s mainly about his uniqueness according to the ancestor, it\'s not like everything is all about it."

"How about you cry on my shoulder? Here. You used to cry in my hug." She smirked.

"It\'s enough, mother. It will only be a few years." She grinned as if she had a plan ready while taking out the recommendation letter.

"Oh! You are really my daughter." Alcea smiled and looked at Nella, knowing her plan. "I am still going to confirm it, but are you sure you will join the Unsurpassed Blade Sect just for this?"

"The ancestor said that no one recognized Sword God\'s talent, but when he was known, not everyone would be put on his eyes. For a merchant, All-in is a gamble, but there is sometimes that we need to do it. Besides, I have claimed boldly that I am your daughter, your little witch."

Alcea and Nella smiled at each other and said the same line. "The person who our eyes have set for won\'t escape from us."

"Still, you will need to practice hard, you know."

Nella raised her hand as a Spear Energy revolved on her hand. "I am more than up for it."

They looked like they had decided to gamble, but little did they know that Alex also had a time limit in this world. Whether she was fast enough or not, no one could tell.
