185 Familiar Face

Name:Gacha Sovereign Author:Fixten
Alex is still clueless as to what kind of impact he has made on the outside. He continues absorbing the Spiritual Energy inside the room. Because of the rich energy inside the room, he finally managed to breakthrough to 5-Star Martial Master. He continues absorbing the energy a little bit more until the System finally stopped him.

[Host, I suggest you stop now. It won't be beneficial past this]

"Oh, You finally come out. I thought you wouldn't stop me."

[You still need six months to consolidate your cultivation, from the original three months]

"Don't remind me about that!"

Alex finally notices Anna, who is beside him, still watching his face closely. "Anna?"

"Ah!" Anna comes back to real life. She blushed and said earnestly. "I'm sorry Young Master. I don't mind to be rude. It just...looking at your face is a satisfaction for me."

Alex wanted to retort her but have no energy to do so. Especially when he saw her earnest face. "Whatever"

Alex then turned to Sherry, who was still eating those energies happily. And, to his surprise, Sherry also has a breakthrough. She is currently at 5-Star Master Stage. Her mouth is like a black hole, sucking all those energies in the air. Of course, Alex didn't mind about it since he has his own share.

"How long was my cultivation?"

"Four hours." Anna answered

Alex nodded to her and turned to Sherry. "Sherry, when will you be full?"

"Wuu (In two hours)"

"You mean after you completely sucked all of this energy?" Anna suddenly interject her.

"Wuu!" Sherry admitted it without shame.

"I see. We will wait for you to eat your fill. Will you go to sleep again after this?" Alex can only smile to this fox here. His concern is another thing, though.

"Wuu" Sherry shook her head. "Wuu Wuu (This energy is different than Pill energy. This one came from monsters. Monster eating monster, that's normal)!"

Alex frowned, He took out a monster core from his Space Ring. "How about this?"

Sherry smell it a bit then shook her head. Now Alex confused. These energies come from Monster Core, which powered by array. If she can eat these, why she can't eat the monster core? Is there something unusual from the array? Or some condition in the monster core?

Alex is trying to think about the reason for another two hours while Sherry eats her fill. Regrettably, he didn't found any clue. He thought he might know about it in the future.

And surprisingly, after another two hours, Sherry made another breakthrough to 6-Star Master Stage. Sherry suddenly came to him. And

"Wuu Wuu Wuu" Said Sherry. She also makes punching motion like a boxer. She seems telling him that she has leveled up now, if she reencountered the monsters. She can fight them and protect him. Sadly, Alex's words made her froze. Just like thunder reverberating in one's ears.

"You can't eat here again for a while. First, we can only practice here once in three months. Second, I don't have any intention to enter here before consolidating my foundation. That means we will go here only six months from now." Said Alex.

"Wuu!" Sherry gets the most shocking statement in her life. "Wuu Wuu Wuu Wuu Wuu...Wuu Wuu"

Sherry complains to him. As for her words, even they are linked, Alex can't understand or even perceive her intention anymore. He only knows one thing, she is complaining to him. "Alright alright. I will make you Fire Spirit Pill, I still can make 50 of it. Is that okay with you? And if it's not enough, I will make a Gathering Array, exclusive for you. I still have two hundred thousand Spirit Stones to supply it."

"!" Sherry's eyes flashed. She stopped her complain and forget about the reason why she was angry. Her eyes turned to a star, and drools seep out of her mouth. "Wuu!"

Alex shakes his head helplessly. She recalls Anna back to her card, Sherry also goes back to his body. Alex now ready to go out. He opens the door and found the place was even more crowded than yesterday. He was shocked. Is something big currently happening?

Of course, he didn't know the one who makes this is him. Alex found Evelyn and Lena in the crowd and decided to ask them about this.

*Whisper*

*Whisper*

"Big Brother Alex!" Evelyn comes to him.

"Yeah. Is something big happening? Why this place become so crowded? And why do I feel they are talking to me?" Asked Alex.

"Is Big Brother a fool?" Evelyn asked innocently, and soon enough, she realized her bad words. "I mean, Is Big Brother didn't realize what you did?"

"What I did?" Alex tilted his head. He didn't know what she's talking about.

"Big Brother, what are you doing inside the room?"

Alex perplexed why she asked this. He just answers with, "I kill monsters."

"Then, what level were those monsters?"

"Hmm, various. The last thing I remember I killed one or two 10-Star Master Stage monster, is that something wrong with it?" Alex asked innocently, and suddenly, he facepalmed. His bad habit resurfaced, he blurted all of that blindly.  "Oh no, my exposure."

Although he wanted to change, It's really hard to change, and sometimes his bad habit will come out unconsciously. It is only after lengthy rehabilitation, one can recover from that. He decided not to show his weakness when Alicia was sealed. And now is only a month or so from that day.

"What?"

"He really is..."

"He can kill 10-Star Monster with his 5-Star Martial Master power?"

"No way. It must be a fluke."

Alex is now thinking about his plan to escape from here. Since he will hole up in the mansion for six months, it's enough for them to forget about him and to lower his exposure at the same time.

"Big brother Alex?" Evelyn is wondering what he is thinking now.

"Ah!" Alex snapped from his mind. And at the same time, A big laugh comes from the crowd.

Alex saw a bald man with a weird mustache and beard. With his vulgar eyes, he didn't wear any shirt. Instead, he wore a leather jacket along with brown pants. And judging from his energy, he was most likely a 4-Star Martial Grandmaster.

"So, you are the one who beat my subordinate. One of them needs to heal himself a year. I will give you a choice, become my subordinate, or I will break all of your limbs."

Alex spotted Tata on his back. He finally knew, this bandit looking man must be the inner disciple in Tata's mouth back then. He thought using Himura Minami to solve this problem. But he miscalculated the time he needed inside the tower.

At first, he was planning to kill as many as possible for a few hours and escaped from here. After he got back to the mansion, he will buy Himura Minami out for a few pills to solve this problem.

But because the monsters come in waves, Alex had forgotten about it.

"He is an Inner Disciple!"

"Yeah, If I'm not wrong, he is Alvaro, a 4-Star Martial Grandmaster."

"He beat his subordinate? that must be the injured person behind him."

"It's perfectly reasonable. He can defeat 10-Star Master Stage Monster while the other is only a 6-Star Martial Master."

"Yeah"

"But Unlucky him to meet Alvaro at this moment."

"Indeed, he has killed a few disciples in the life and death arena."

Suddenly, Evelyn comes to his front while pointing his sword toward Alvaro. "You can't hurt Big Brother Alex."

Alvaro narrows his eyes. "I see. I thought you are a little familiar. You must be the rumored genius from Thiveapia Kingdom. But this is not Thiveapia Kingdom and your brother not with you right now, so he can't protect you. Even if he here, I'm not afraid of him"

Alex sees the tiny figure of Evelyn, trying to protect him. He smiles a little. He pats her head a few times and then looks at Alvaro. 'How can he let this 14-years old girl protect him? He went in front of her and said fearlessly to Alvaro. "I never thought a 4-Star Martial Grandmaster wants to bully a puny 5-Star Martial Master."

"Hmph! In the face of the enemy, who cares for their cultivation stage. As long as you are an enemy, you are the target. Fine, since we are in the sect. I will let you go if you can withstand three attacks from me."

Suddenly a bright and cheerful sound fills the day. And two figure appears before him. The blonde one laughed. "I just heard something funny but right. Yes, in the face of the enemy, who cares about their opponent's cultivation. Since it is like that. I will also let you go if you can withstand three attacks from me."

"Who are y..." Before Alvaro finished his words. He finally recognized the two people in front of him.

One of them has straight blonde hair reaching to her waist, along with Shining blue eyes set gracefully within their sockets. There is no trace of arrogance in her cheerful expression. But even though she is a bit short, she indeed has a good body. The curves and edges indeed perfectly complement her small frame. She wears a white shirt and a blue skirt.

Beside her is another lady with long green hair. Unlike the one beside her, who appears to be cheerful and easygoing, this lady has an elegant aura surrounding her. Her green eyes are giving an aura of politeness. She also wears a white shirt but with a red skirt.

Alex also recognized these two people. These two people are the ones he met at the Alchemist Guild in Shades Town. They are the ones who bought a Jade Heart Pill from him.

Are they protecting him? But he didn't know them. Why would they protect him? Or maybe they are just a friend of justice? All of these questions make him confused.

"You...You..." Alvaro recognized them. "You are Song Yu, a core disciple, and the one beside you is Putri Wulan, an inner disciple."

"Oh, you finally recognize us." Song Yu said, "Since you love bullying. Then, I don't mind bullying you too."

The crowd burst out.

"What? Senior Sister Song Yu and Senior Sister Putri Wulan?"

"They are gorgeous."

"I really like Senior Sister Song Yu's cheerful personality."

"No no, You can't say so after you look at our elegant Senior Sister Putri Wulan."

"But, it seems they are protecting that new disciple."

"Who the heck is he, to even make two Senior Sisters protect him?"

"Is he under their tutelage?"

"If so, then him being a ninth rank, is acceptable."

"Senior, There must be a misunderstanding. I-"

"What misunderstanding. If I'm not here. What will happen to him?" Song Yu snorted.

"I..."

"I'm not a brute like you, but you still need to receive a punishment. Putri, would you mind giving him three blows?" Song Yu asked.

"Sure, Senior Sister"

The green-haired woman, Putri, took out her spear. The spear is made in a unique way to enhance her elegance, it can be said that the spear was tailored made for her. The handle is made out of silver colored metal as jades planted on the body as decoration. The tip isn't that thin nor wide. With 10 inches blade on the tip. It seems the spear not just made for thrusting but also for slashing. "As per Senior Sister's order, I will deliver three blows to you. Prepare yourself"

Looking at the scene, he knows that he didn't have any way out. Alvaro finally took out his giant axe. At least it is better for him to take Putri Wulan's strikes. After all, she is currently at 7-Star Martial Grandmaster while he is a 4-Star Martial Grandmaster.  It's better than taking three strikes from 4-Star Martial Lord. After all, he didn't have any protection from a Core Disciple.

Putri elegantly raised her spear as she thrust her spear toward Alvaro.

"Quick Silver" The tip of her spear suddenly glowing white light. When she thrust her spear, the glowing like flew in an arrow shape toward Alvaro.

"Berserker Axe!" Alvaro is trying to break the small arrow shape like with his axe. But it is easier said than done. He released her axe's intent and finally managed to destroy it.

*Pant Pant* Of course, he needs to use all of his strength to block it.

"My second move" Putri said without any expression. She swings her spear as the wind around the blade, starting to get distorted. "Jewel Wind"
