Gacha Sovereign

187 Friend

Their first destination is the house in the foot of the Seventh Peak. It seems that Song Yu and Putri Wulan won't come in. They will wait for him on the outside. Alex didn't have much baggage. His primary objective for coming back here is just to erase his Array. After all, for now, no one can know about him being an Array Master.

After finishing his work, Alex immediately prepares to leave the mansion. And in the hallway, He meets Kenshin and, of course, Himura Minami following him.

"So, you are finally leaving this house."

"Alex, are you really going to leave this house?"

Alex ignored Himura Minami and nodded to Kenshin's question. He thought Himura Minami would flare up, but to his surprise, she didn't even batting an eye, let alone flare up. She is very joyful at the moment. Finally, this house becomes her love nest with her brother.

Kenshin is sad because of Alex, leaving the house. But Alex has prepared the foundation of his. His future achievement will always come from his own hand. There is no way Alex going to feed him in the whole life.

"Why are you leaving?" Kenshin asked. It seems he still didn't know about it. Even Alex only knows about it today.

"You can ask the person behind you or Seventh Elder." Alex said. "Listen. I'm sure that you know about this, but you need to tread the path of your cultivation by yourself. I have laid the foundation for you. So, the rest is up to you. And also, I have compiled my experience on 'Six Strikes."

Alex said that. Although it seems it was a bit cruel to him like he wants to sever their relationship. It is also for his foundation; he hopes Kenshin can take these words on his head and turn it to a new determination.

Their bond? Their brotherhood? In fact, their brotherhood is only Kenshin's own promise. Their friendship is only because of Alex's need for information, and their friendship is only formed for less than a month, excluding the previous month since Alex was in a mission.

Alex saved his life, and then he gave his future by introducing Katana to him. Kenshin gave him information about the continent. Alex even gave him a few pills, including a perfect Jade Heart Pill along with the new 'Six Strikes'. On the contrary, Kenshin can't pay him back. He only swore to be his sworn brother and will repay him back in the future, but can he?

They say talent is only 1% chance of success, while 99% is hard work. But it is not entirely right. This kind of saying can only be applied to people who have a similar kind of talent. Of course, people are very talented but didn't do any work, are excluded.

But, if one is very hardworking despite not being talented and the other one is also very hardworking despite him being very talented. Their gap will only get wider and wider as time goes by unless he/she has a lucky encounter.

It might sound cold, but Alex is not a hero nor a friend of justice. Alex has repaid him a few times over. After all, his aim is to get stronger as soon as possible so he can reunite with his two wives. Alex doesn't value friendship? No, in fact, severing their friendship is needed for someone who genuinely values friendship. Alex's aim is ascending to godhood. In this continent which only have Martial Kings. It is better to sever his relationship before its too late. He might need to fight Martial Emperor, Martial Monarch, or even Martial Saint. They might become targeted by those people. Of course, Alex doesn't know how strong they are, but at least they are far stronger than Martial King. When that happens, it's too late to regret.

He has established his mysterious identity inside the sect higher up, which can be useful for him. Then, now he got the protection of a Martial Lord. At least, he can peacefully cultivate for the time being. For him, who is alone in this world. One wrong step might cost his life. That's why he needs to be careful. He will pick up the pace from now on...after six months of consolidating, though.

Alex walked toward the exit door. While waving his hand once again and put the widest smile he can. "Bye"

Kenshin didn't feel any peace in that smile of his. Instead, it was like a forced smile because of circumstances. Suddenly, he felt pressure all around him. Now that he looks at it, He didn't know anything about Alex. He also never repay anything to him. He only gave him some information and did some demonstration for low level Martial Arts. He bit his lips until it bleeds. Now he realizes he had never tried to understand him. All of it was only his own promise as his sworn brother, all of his only empty promises.

He thought he could repay him somehow when they are inside the sect. But he didn't even realize when Alex suddenly go on a mission one month ago. What he is thinking is only around him. It is only 'Should I give this to Alex?' not 'What Alex's needed for the moment?'. At this moment, he finally asked himself, 'Am I too self-centered?' But the moment he realizes this, Alex has gone. He clenches his hands and bite his lips.

Alex finally step outside the house. Alex comes to Song Yu and Putri. Alex smiled at them and said. "Sorry, I made you wait too long."

Normal people won't know about this, but Song Yu noticed a slight change in Alex's voice. She asked him, "Are you alright? Do you need a bit more time?"

"No, I'm fine. Let's go, I still need to pick a Martial Arts."

"He is your friend?"

"You can..." Alex wanted to say a half-ass response like 'You can say so' but the words stuck on his throat.

'Friend...' Now that he looked back. He never had any friend... did he? In the lower world, he only has two wives along with their relatives, and a loving teacher. As for the demihumans...no, they are just a bunch of weirdos. There is one guy that appeared on his mind, it was Joshua. Although, he said they are a friend. It is not like they are a real friend. They barely talked with each other. As for the people on Earth...Nah, all he can see is darkness in there. Now that he looks at it, he never has any friends. Kenshin is the one who can make him feel like he has a friend.

After a bit of reflection in his mind. He corrects himself. He says while smiling, "Yes, he is my friend. Trust me, I'm alright, Senior Sister."

"If you said so" Song Yu is also helpless in this. "Well, I can only say this. It's really lonely when you didn't have someone who supports you. I know how it feels."

Alex didn't say anything. He only closed his eyes for a moment, and his lips tweak a bit. Alex looks at Song Yu's back, it seems this new Senior Sister of his has some kind of backstory. The journey took a few minutes. The sect is really big.

When they arrived, Alex finally saw the third building of the famous pillar of Heavenly Sword Sect. It is a giant building, he says. It close to a public library on Earth, the big one. The entrance is open. From it, Alex can see the inside a bit. Of course, it is full of racks of books.

"Junior Brother, is this your first time here?" Asked Song Yu.

"Yes"

"Then, I will explain about this Martial Arts Pavilion to you. I'm afraid the elder inside won't bother to explain the details to you." Song Yu said.

"Please"

"There are four sections inside the pavilion. The first section is filled with Yellow Tier Martial Arts, then the second one is for Profound Tier Martial Arts while the third, you might already guess it, it is exclusive for Earth Tier Martial Arts." She paused a bit for the fourth section. "As for the fourth, They are only exclusive for Core Disciple or above such as elders or Sect Master."

"But you are only a Martial Master, so I think you should pick a Profound Tier Martial Arts for your first pick. Their price is reasonable, ranging from a hundred sect points to three hundred sect points."

"But, I still have many points that I can use" Alex said.

"There are a few reasons why I said this. First, you might need your points for Pills and Weapons, which you can exchange from Exchange Pavilion. Second, you are still in Martial Master, so you might be unable to understand a high Tier Martial Arts because of the lack of knowledge. Third, it's hard to get points before you are a peak Martial Grandmaster or Martial Lord, you know."

Alex is thinking about those three reasons. For the first point, he can get pills since he is an alchemist, as for the weapon, System is all he needs. So the first point is a no for him. Then move to the second point, it is indeed as she said. But, the thing is, she didn't know about Alex's Sword Mastery or his understanding of Spear. He can comprehend them pretty easily unless the case is like Seven Stars Cut, which requires a cultivation base. As for the third point, this is the point he didn't agree the most. After all, he just got 1491 points before pretty easily.

"Is it really that hard? I mean, I just got 1491 points from Battle Tower" Alex asked.

"You are a bit special. Normally, others can only increase their rank step by step. They won't get any big sum of points like you and also your reward bonus. And mostly, they used it for pills to increase their cultivation. So, Unlike you, it's hard to save up. That's why I'm saying this so you can save up your points. Or should I choose a Sword Art for you? I am also a sword user."

Song Yu no Alex is a sword user since Evelyn asked about Seven Stars Cut. After all, it is a Sword Art. Alex thought about it for a moment then shook his head. "I appreciate Senior Sister's concern. But I think, I will choose my Martial Arts myself."

"Is that so? Even though I'm your tutor, I also want you to learn by yourself. After all, you can't be too dependent as a cultivator. Or should Putri accompany you inside? I will wait outside, though." Song Yu said while looking at Putri.

"If you want, I can teach you. After all, this is your first time picking a Martial Arts inside." Said Putri, although she rarely spoke...Nah, That's just because Song Yu has too much energy, so she is the one who keeps talking to him.

Putri is starting to accept this Alexander Sirius as her Junior Brother. After following Song Yu for a long time, she often saw the lustful gaze on her Senior Sister, of course, she was too. But, at least there is nothing like that in Alex's eyes at the moment. Of course, it still needs more observation. But at least, she isn't opposed to having him as her Junior Brother.

Alex obviously won't have that eyes. If he has that kind of eyes, his wives' representative, Sherry, will stab his eyes with her paws. Alex also feel their good intention. But he needs to reject them for various reasons. "I appreciate Senior Sisters' concern, but I need to decline."

Almost no one will reject their invitation inside the sect. They are one of the top ten flowers in the sect, after all. It can be said, this is the first time they were rejected by a man. But, Song Yu and Putri didn't feel offended by Alex's rejection. Song Yu only give a smile to him and says,

"Alright. I won't press on. If you have any problem with your Sword Art, you can ask Putri or me about it. We will try our best to answer you. Or you can ask our Master if she visited us. This is also a good way to judge how good your eye in discerning things is. The limit of entry is two hours, the tutor can accompany their protege inside, but we will wait for you outside."

"Thank you, Senior Sisters. I will go first," Alex bid goodbye then he enters the Martial Arts Pavilion. What Martial Arts will he choose?
