Chapter 736 - Previous Alexander Sirius Part II

"All of you can stop now. They are not our enemies. Little Leoz! When are you going to become a scholar?"

"!!!" The spirits turned around, noticing that Alex had woken up. "Alex. We need to leave this place!"

Anna must have said those words out of desperation since she didn't notice the change in Alex's word and soon realized there was a crown above his head.

"That crown… And that phrase…" Leoz was the first one to notice. He never thought he could hear that annoying phrase again. It was the phrase that Alex used to say to him. Though it annoyed him most of the time, when Alex fell in battle, he couldn't help but miss that teasing of his.

Tears streamed out of his eyes, falling down uncontrollably. It wasn't his character to be this weak. He had promised him to get stronger, but meeting him again like this just made it unbearable.

"Master! I am glad to see you again." Leoz fell on his knees, kept crying like a baby.

"Look at you, how can you become a snotty brat again? Previously, you were a beast before becoming a brat like this. I have told you to become strong, or have you forgotten our promise?" Alex shook his head before glancing at the other spirits.

He didn't forget to whisper something in his mind. 'Xingzhi. You are always worried about me but fret not. The situation is under control, so don't bring those guys here, especially that Korzan. He will nag everything.'

[Is that really you?]

'Just for a while. I haven't said goodbye to all of you yet because last time was very troublesome. Besides, you are already charmed by the future me. Hehe, I am proud of myself. Anyway, I can't talk much. I am just happy that all of you can move on.'

Without waiting for Lin Xingzhi to reply, Alex smiled. "Anna, Anya. Has Xingzhi corrupted you? Nah, it is a foolish question since the answer is obvious.

"Fabio, Vera. Have you got over that annoying act? Jeanne, Jean… You two can just do what you love. Don't mind other people's opinions. Greg! You should open your armor sometime! I know that you are stuffed inside.

"Artur. Are you still bothering the others with that justice of yours? Not that I hate it though. And Nelson! Just make sure you don't appear so suddenly in front of me, alright? It's scary you know!" Alex paused a bit. His greeting was unique but hit the bottom of their heart. Even so, there was still one thing that he needed to convey. "Nonetheless. All of you are unique, and I am not asking you to change because that's what you are. And I am happy to see you all well like this."

This time, all spirits fell down on their knees. Just like Leoz, they couldn't hold their tears and cried. "Master!"

Alex closed his eyes. As much as he wanted to shed tears, he still had another thing to do. He looked at the Gods and Goddesses who were clueless about this situation.

"It's been a few thousand years since we last met." Alex smiled before he sensed the trouble in this tower. "I see. It seems the damage to this world is still there. However, the Space Monsters don't seem to be connected with the others. Who is the one in charge of the Space Monsters again?"

The Gods and Goddesses trembled upon hearing that and couldn't answer Alex immediately.

Alex only sighed and knew something like this bound to happen. The blue gem on the crown suddenly shone, illuminating the entire tower. An overbearing pressure enveloped the tower and woke up all of them.

"This is Divine Pressure!"

"Anyway, just answer my question. I can't maintain this for long."

"Ye-yes." The purple-haired man stepped forward. "I am the one who maintains the Space Monsters."

"What about the other elements? How many elements are there?"

"There are seven excluding my Space Element."

"It's not possible then. As much as I want to liberate this world, the other seven are connected. If we can't kill them at the same time, they are bound to know and rampage. This is not good progress. I guess I can only let this continue." Alex sighed.

"No, no! Your Majesty, Spirit God, had helped us when we needed it the most. We should take care of our own problem."

"Well, your Space Realm is different, right? I will help you to destroy that monster, lessening the burden of this tower. Just give your Space Knowledge to this body as the payment. I will leave the detail to you since I only have a little energy left." Alex shrugged.

"Ye-yes." The purple-haired man nodded.

Alex then whispered to Lin Xingzhi again. 'There is a reason for me to appear. Although I have promised myself that I won't appear again, I still have one important thing to do. That beast can't sit still anymore… Although we still have some time, the seal is going to be broken soon.

'The future me will take the task to destroy that beast. I hope you can guide him to the peak again. I know he will fight that beast because it will ruin our home. That's why please help the future me as his system and his wife.'

[You…]

Alex ignored her and sighed. "I think it's time for me to go. I have said everything and have fulfilled my last objective. So, this is my last goodbye to you guys. I hope you take care of yourself and don't forget to not say anything to the present me."

"Alex!" Anna shouted, stretching her hands as if she was trying to grab him.

"Haha… You have already moved on, so don't lament on me anymore. Goodbye, all of you." Alex's body began to shine as his will started to dissipate.

Alex suddenly fell unconscious. Anna and Anya immediately caught him, not letting him touch the ground. His crown also vanished into thin air.

"You were always like this. Come and go as you please…" Anna smiled despite the tears that kept falling down.

Anya closed her eyes and sighed. "Don't worry about us. You have become our number two now!"

Despite being filled with sadness, her voice carried her resolve. She had truly moved on.

The present Alex finally took over his body again as he gradually opened his eyes. 'Hmm?'

"Alex! You have woken up!" Anya smiled and kissed him on the lips. "You made us worry, you know. To think we almost fought against so many Gods and Goddesses."

"I am sorry." Alex smiled gently.

"It's our honor to greet you, Sir Alexander." The purple-haired man led the others to greet Alex.

"Looking at this greeting, it seems the past me has controlled everything." Alex sighed.

"Please think nothing of it. He only said goodbye and a present for the last meeting." Anna shrugged while wiping her tears.

"Uoh!" Jeanne also leaped toward him and clung on his neck. "Master! I love both masters!"

Alex didn't know how to react to this matter. On one hand, he knew that the previous him must appear because he needed to do something important. On the other hand, he was afraid that the others might have a different opinion after seeing him again.

He took a deep breath and asked. "What are we going to do now? I know that the people in front of us are not enemies, right?"

"Yes. We have been trying to say it's only a misunderstanding. However, it can't be blamed because our number and appearance alone are enough to invite a misunderstanding. Nonetheless, everything has been resolved." The purple-haired man nodded, giving his best smile.

"Is that so?" Alex thought for a moment and nodded. "I am sorry, but I think I will need a bit more time to solve my problem."

"We know. If you have finished the problem, you can activate the array beneath the floor. It will send you to the top floor, or you can say it's a floor above the ceiling." He nodded and pointed upward.

Alex nodded with a smile. "Thank you."

The Gods and Goddesses then returned with the Spatial Gate.

Alex then looked at his companions before glancing at Firia's figure on the side. She knew about Alex's previous life a long time ago, but when she saw the person in question, she had a weird feeling in her chest.

She suddenly knelt on her knees, hugging Alex from behind. "No matter what happened to you, I will always be with you."

Alex took a deep breath and smiled. "Thank you."

"Anyway, can any of you give me some space a little bit?" Alex asked.

"Yes, Master." Leoz and the others retreated a few steps. Anna and Anya also released him, waiting for him to say anything.

"Master?" Alex was startled to hear everyone calling him Master as if they forgot about the way they called him. He thought this was because the previous Alex's appearance made the situation not the same anymore.

Leoz smiled and shook his head as if he knew what Alex was thinking. "It's not what you think, Master. We didn't call you Master because of him."

"Then what?" Alex tilted his head in confusion.

"It's your Spirit Crown. I don't know if you notice it, but you just wore a Spirit Crown. That is the symbol of our ruler, the Spirit King. Only after you reach God Stage do we call you Spirit God."

Alex narrowed his eyes. "I am a Human though. And there is no guarantee that I will accept this title."

"We know." Nelson nodded. "Even so, it's our obligation to call you Master as long as you wear a Spirit Crown. That's the one thing that we can't compromise."

"What? Still, Young Master isn't that bad. Besides, I just got the crown from the Golden Lightning Tribulation…"

"Well, there are several ways to call you like My King, Your Majesty, or Milord."

"…" Alex was speechless. "Even if I order you to call me Young Master?"

"According to our rules, it's considered a capital crime. And the only punishment is death. We will be very happy to offer our lives at that time." Leoz simply smiled.

Alex sighed. "I knew it. Everything won't be the same anymore. Well, it's only a title, so no big deal, I guess. I also have reached the Martial Saint Stage, so I am ready for this. Even so, I hope that none of you force me to become the Spirit King."

"Of course." Leoz nodded. "It's your choice. However, I believe Master will love Eulja."

The others also nodded in agreement. "Since Firia visited there in the past, and Alicia is still living there, I will try to look at it first."

"It's our honor."

"Anyway, drop this formality stuff. I feel that you all become too formal." Alex sighed.

"We understand. We are just too shocked to see him, so we might need some time to adjust ourselves." Leoz nodded while the others agreed.

"Fine then."
