Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 475: Phoenix Trial Last Par

475 Phoenix Trial Last Par

He started his training in this place. Although he was concerned about Kyle, Sherry, and Anya, he might need this technique in the future, making him unable to go back yet. Because he did not know how long the real world had passed and could not cultivate more than this, he could only increase his strength by learning this technique.

The training was insane that even made him forget about his matter a few times. Even after experiencing the most gruesome training, he held it to the very end. In fact, this Phitrus just wanted to bully him in the process.

And finally, after several months, he mastered his technique. Phitrus said this was a reward for him since he knew about Alex's past and how troublesome it was to accept such a thing. This way, he would not meet any resistance from him.

Even if Alex did not recognize him, he still felt Alex like his family. But the end had arrived and it was time for him to go back. He said, "You have mastered this technique and your fire is superior to a normal Pure Fire. So, go back, I want to sleep again."

"I… Thank you, Senior." Alex bowed.

"Ah, that's right. Take this with you." Phitrus handed him two of the same staves. The staves were made out of metal with four pairs of wings on top of it. There was another kind of aura emanating from the staff, but Alex thought it was just the staff's energy.

"You get the first one while giving the other one to the Phoenix Race's current leader. Told them they need to take care of this staff even if they need to sacrifice the whole race."

"But, isn't this Senior's staff? The ruler aside, I don't think I deserve this."

"It is an advance payment for you to deliver the other staff. If the phoenixes don't want to listen to you, just whack them with that staff."

"But…"

"Alright. I hear enough. Go away." He waved his hands as a gate appeared. He used his flame to push Alex toward the gate without letting him say another world.

Unbeknownst to him, this Phitrus just created a huge mess in the real world.

The gate in the real world suddenly gleamed brightly. Because the training took so long, the phoenix queen ordered one of the elders to watch the gate to wait for Alex.

The elder started to get bored as she had been watching this for a few months. However, she also never heard about someone taking this long. Usually, they would come out in the second or third month and even the longest one was in the fourth month.

She was wondering if Alex had died or something, but there was no record that someone died in this trial. But the moment she saw the gate make such a reaction, she stood up.

Flame started covering the gate while emanating a pressure that threw the whole palace in chaos. The fire in their heart wanted to come and kneel in front of this pressure while their phoenix blood started boiling up.

The pressure was very mysterious and ancient, but they knew this was pressure from a Phoenix. The same thing also happened in other places.

At the hall, Ellen and the other elders were having a meeting. Although no one knew that Ellen had taken the throne as the information about was not spread according to the queen order, Ellen had been doing her job, leaving nothing to be desired. Of course, the elders also took part in this achievement.

But suddenly they felt a very oppressive pressure, making them fall to their knees. Even with Ellen's bloodline or fire element, she was not free of this suppression. She gritted her teeth. "Is someone attacking us?"

"This…" No elders could answer this as they did not have the answer themselves.

"Her majesty might know something about this." The elder said.

"..." She wanted to answer but was stopped by the shock when the pressure suddenly disappeared. Even so, she did not have time to waste. "I will go ask my mother about this. All of you will stand by in case there is an enemy."

"Yes."

At the queen's bedroom,

The queen was helping Kyle in his progress. Kyle's progress had surpassed her imagination these past few months. Still, it was reasonable, considering he also got influenced by Alex's Pure Fire.

When the queen was smiling while watching Kyle's progress, she suddenly stumbled on the ground after feeling the oppressive pressure.

Kyle was also the same, but unlike her, he noticed that this pressure came from Alex.

The pressure lasted for a few seconds before Stina came to Kyle. "Are you alright?"

"Mas-!"

*Bam*

Ellen suddenly slammed the door open and searched for her mother. "Mother, we have an emergency."

"What just happened?" Stina asked.

"I don't know. I am coming to Mother because I am clueless. I am sorry if I disturb both of you, but this needs to be stopped." Ellen said.

"I am also clueless about this."

"This is… from Master." Kyle finally spoke.

"!!!" Both Stina and Ellen looked at him with a shocked face. "There are many questions, but we should go there first. Call the elders to the gate."

"Understood."

Both of them ran as fast as they could to the trial room. But the moment they arrived, they could only see the clueless Alex and the kneeling elder. They were bewildered why she was kneeling, but the moment Stina saw the staves in Alex's hand, she suddenly fell down to her knees.

"Stina Blaze greets the Ancestor."

"Mother?" Ellen was baffled. She became even more confused when the other elders arrived and kneeled upon seeing the staves. "Ancestor? But he is a human…"

Stina gritted her teeth as she pulled Ellen down and made her kneel in one knee. "I apologize for my daughter."

"This…" Alex scratched his cheek as he did not know what to do.

At the same time, Kyle was freed from Stina's hug and flew toward Alex. "Master… I miss you."

"Yes. I miss you two. How are Sherry and Anya?"

"Elder Sister and Mistress are still in the courtyard. I often visited them to check their condition. They are missing you too."

"Is that so? I will go back and meet them after this." Alex said as he was astonished by Kyle's cultivation. "To think you have become 7-Star… I wonder what kind of sorcery is this…"

"Master, you have gone for six months," Kyle said.

"That long?" Amazed, he said, "I could not tell the time inside there, so I apologize then for taking too long."

"I can even wait for a few years if needed," Kyle said proudly.

"Haha… Anyway, I should finish my business first." Alex said before turning to Stina and Ellen. "Ehm… who is the current queen?"

"I abdicated the throne to my daughter two months ago, Ancestor," Stina answered.

Alex nodded before walking toward Ellen. He smiled as he handed the scepter to her. "Well, he wants me to give this to you while I keep the other one. By the way, can all of you get up and explain what this thing is?"

Ellen took the scepter with a clueless expression, wondering if this was right or not. But seeing her mother did not say anything, she just gratefully took it before asking her mother about this scepter later.

Her answer came as Alex was also curious about it.

Stina and the others got up before she explained. "This is our Ancestor's scepter when he ruled this race. He was the only person who became God and he said to treat whoever held the scepter as him. So…"

Ellen's hands were shaking when she heard that. She never thought this staff was this important.

"I see. Well, I am surprised to hear this scepter is something like that. After all, he said that I just needed to whack someone with this staff if they did not hear me or something." Alex chuckled.

Meanwhile, none of them could feel that way. They were sweating, imagining Alex whacking this staff and ruled the phoenix race. The core ingredients of these staves were Phitrus's Pure Fire Element. In case, he whacked a phoenix with this, the phoenix would not be able to utilize their power. This was also why he told them to guard it with their lives. If this scepter fell into another hand, phoenix might get enslaved.

"This… Please don't do this…" Stina looked at him with a weird expression. "There will be chaos everywhere… If I may ask, can you tell us what happened inside?"

Alex pondered for a while, calculating the numbers in his mind. "I just teleported to white world and needed to fill all single details by defeating enemies. If my calculation was right, I fought more than five thousand Marti- Tier 5 enemies inside, filling eight worlds with details. After that, I met a man called Phitrus."

"Is that senior with a mole under his right eye?"

"Yes."

"I see." Stina was convinced that the staves were coming from the ancestor himself.

"This is just my curiosity, but all of you can transform into human form, right?" Alex asked while glancing at Kyle, who was in his Phoenix Form.

"There are two ways to transform. We have a technique that can make phoenixes transform into a human form. The second way is to become a Tier 6 Phoenix. At that time, you will have a natural ability to change. I want him to change naturally and I believe he won't need a long time to achieve that."

"Does that rule apply to any other races?" Alex asked, picturing Sherry in his mind.

"Yes. This should apply to others." She nodded.

(AN: Good for you, Sherry.)

Alex nodded, relieved by the answer. He then asked Stina and Ellen since they should get a better picture than Kyle.

"By the way, what happened while I was inside?"

"There is no movement from the Human Race, so it is safe to assume they have yet to know about the Purple Crystal you possess. Though if they want to, we will protect you at any cost. It must also be the will of the ancestor.

"As for your companions, they are safe and sound. Lastly, Princess Shelka is still waiting for you. According to Hus… Kyle, it seems you are wary about her. How about sending her back?

"I have abdicated my throne anyway and have time. Kyle must surely follow you, so I think I can help your travel. I believe the other party would give me more face than a Princess even if she is a Pure Element user. I also need to thank you for giving the scepter to my daughter." Stina reported.

"..." Alex was glad that the human race had yet to know about this, symbolizing that Lilian did not tell them about this yet. As for Shelka, it would be good to drive her away, but…

"I have promised the Elven King to let her accompany me on this journey. Although I can't drive her away against her will, it does not mean I need to bring her everywhere.

"She has yet to know that I have finished the trial, right?"

"Yes. Only the people in the palace experienced the pressure earlier. However, if we impose an information lockdown, she should not know about it." Stina nodded. Even Sherry and Anya did not know about this pressure as the courtyard was a bit farther from the castle.

"Hmm… Don't tell her about this yet. Pretend that I am still in the trial. As long as she does not know, she would think she is still accompanying me in this trial, meaning I still fulfill the promise." Alex said.

Stina nodded. "If I am not wrong, you are going to visit the Angel Race after this. When are you leaving?"

"Hmm… Maybe in a few months. I still need to consolidate my power." Alex sighed. "I will go back to that courtyard."

He wanted to see Anya and Sherry. As for Kyle, it seemed he had a great time with the queen.

"I will guide you then. Kyle wants to meet them anyway."
