Gacha Sovereign
chapter-246

"Young Master." Anna greeted him.

"Just call me, Alex," Alex said to her with a smile.

Anna was taken aback. Tears wanted to flow out of her eyes, but she held it. She was thrilled at this moment, "Yes, Alex."

"Should I go to that place?" Alex asked.

Anna understood his concern. After all, a place called 'Death Forest' gave him many sad memories. Even so, he was different from back then. He wasn't a naive young man like the past.

"Yo-Alex, I think you should go. You are not the one like before who didn't think about his powerful Fire Element. You also didn't have us back then.

"But now, it is different. You are far stronger from back then. You also have us," Anna smiled at him.

Alex pondered for a bit. "Yeah, you might be right. I should get chances to breakthrough as many as possible. After all, my endpoint is not here, and I don't want to be stuck here for a long time.

"Alright, I will go. There are still two months to prepare. I might get enough tickets to pull EXP cards from Normal Gacha. It might be enough to get you to a Peak Martial Grandmaster at that time.

"As for Leoz, since only Martial Grandmaster can go inside this place. Leoz might not be able to come even if I summoned it with the cards. Fabio, Greg, Wright, and Salijan will continue their grinding. The same applies to Nelson. He will search for information.

"That means I will go with you, Sherry and Kyle. I don't know how much Kyle can reach, but I hope it is enough for him to reach Grandmaster since we do not lack Spirit Stones. Of course, I will call Fabio and the others if necessary."

Alex said his plan. Sherry then came out of his body. She was in her small form. They could see a few wounds on her body. Although the wound had closed, the marks still could be seen.

"Sherry, are you alright?" Alex immediately hugged her. He was a bit guilty to Sherry in that incident.

"Wuu (I am fine now)," Sherry comforted him.

The phoenix also came out of his body. It became a small bird with red fur. There was no trace of the flame too.

"Wuu (I have taught him)," Sherry appealed her efforts.

Alex was astonished. He was wondering what kind of world inside his body. "All right. I will build another Spirit Gathering Array in your room so that you can teach Kyle."

"!!!" Sherry opened her eyes wide. She wanted to protest, but the way she asked was not the same. "Wuu Wuu (Master, can I not have the same room? I mean, I am a girl, and he is a boy)."

Alex was taken aback when he heard that. If he heard it from a teenage girl, it might be easy to accept. However, hearing it from Sherry, it might be a bit...

Alex immediately granted her wish, though. "Sure. Sorry, I forget about that. I will make it in another room. Anna will be the supervisor like always. Is that alright with you, Anna?"

"Yes."

"All right. Kyle needs to try to reach Martial Grandmaster rank in these two months."

"Chirp!"

Alex nodded. He thought about buying Kyle an Energy Pill. Well, he could ask Anna or Song Yu for the ingredients as he could make the pill himself.

He then gave a room for Kyle the bird and made a Gathering Array. After that, he went to cultivate on his own. Preferably, he wanted to be a 4-Star Martial Grandmaster if not 5-Star Martial Grandmaster before entering the inheritance place.

Alex didn't forget to spare some time to make the pill. He found out that when he made the pill, he could make two pills simultaneously. It seemed that his Mental Energy increased too much.

He didn't know whether it was due to Lightning Tribulation or Heart Refinement. But from the look of it, it was the former. After all, he didn't feel any effect after he refined his heart. Back then, he started refining Tempered Muscle Pill after refining his heart.

Before, he could refine a set of ingredients in twenty minutes, because his mental energy was not enough.

The number of ingredients for the Tempered Muscle Pill was seven ingredients. Alex could only refine five ingredients simultaneously. If he could refine those seven ingredients simultaneously, he could make it in ten minutes.

But now, he could refine two sets of ingredients within ten minutes. That meant four times faster than his previous speed. He really became a money making machine. He had more than enough time

Well, he had another mouth to feed. So, it was fine for him. After half a month, Alex gave the Space Ring to Anna so she could give it to Song Yu.

Song Yu was shocked when she saw the pills. The result was the same. It was 900 perfect purity Tempered Muscle Pills. Song Yu was obviously bewildered. Alex could achieve this with just a half month. She was wondering if Alex had time to cultivate.

In fact, Alex only spent four to five hours a day to refine the pills. He spent a few hours practicing his Martial Arts such as Space Plate and Sunlight Wing. He practiced his Sunlight Wing first since he had some image in his mind after seeing Kyle's wing.

He then spent the rest of the day to cultivate. He also spent some time together with Anna from time to time.

Song Yu came back with the Spirit Stones and ingredients. Of course, the one who received her was Anna.

Alex kept sending the pills after he finished refining them.

Two months passed in brief. Alex could only sell his pills in bulk three times in these two months. He found out that Su Hua was not in the Alchemist Guild anymore.

Song Yu also kept saying that the Alchemist Guild might not have a shortage of Tempered Muscle Pill for a while. Alex had made a big profit, though. Song Yu also got more than a million Spirit Stones with just the commission. Of course, it couldn't be compared to Alex's since his profit was more than ten million.

Sadly, although Alex had spent around two million in these two months, his cultivation had reached 5-Star Martial Grandmaster. He was starting to consolidate his foundation. If not, he would be able to need more than that. Considering he also got Sherry and Kyle.

Alex also had another reason why he only sold the pills to Song Yu three times in these two months. First, Putri also met him to tell him the plan for the Death Forest. Second, he also had dropped Greg, Salijan, and Wright.

Salijan was a fire lion that could walk in two feet. The fur around his head and in its tail was burning. It was such a sight when he first met Salijan. And it seemed Salijan was more fluent in speaking than Wright, which also an SR spirit.

The last and the most important thing, Alex decided to deepen his relationship with Anna. He broke the last barrier. Unfortunately, he couldn't hold a marriage for her for the time being.

Anna also understood the circumstance, she didn't really mind about it. At least, she already had a marriage with the previous him. Even though Alex decided that they were different, the memory alone was enough for her.

Finally, the two months had abruptly passed.

Alex came out of his bedroom.

"Anna, how are the others doing?" Alex asked.

"Yes. They are doing great. Sherry has reached 6-Star Martial Grandmaster. Kyle also reached 2-Star Martial Grandmaster."

Alex nodded. Kyle was cultivating at breakneck speed. He didn't have any shortage of Spirit Stones anyway. Alex refrained himself from giving him Fire Spirit Pills or Flamming Sun Pills since it won't let their flame evolve.

Sherry and Kyle were better to have Spirit Stones instead of those pills. Alex also added Kyle into Spirit Nest so he could contribute EXP and Gacha Tickets when he killed a monster.

"How about you all?" Alex asked again.

Anna then gave him every card she had. Her card, Leoz's card, Fabio's card, Nelson's, and the rest. Alex checked each card.

[Anna (Dark)

Alex was satisfied with this development. Anna leveled up twice in these two months. Leoz also leveled up once and became a 2-Star Martial Lord. But the most satisfying was Greg. Greg managed to become a Martial Grandmaster, and it was even a 3-Star Grandmaster to boot.

Nelson had a level up, and he was also on the verge of a breakthrough. As for Salijan and Wright, they might not be able to fight a monster higher rank than them, but they were still enough to hold their peer.

"Because Leoz has been killing many Martial Lord monsters. He produced a ridiculous amount of EXP for the others. With that amount of EXPs, we can level up a few times, more so for the low level ones," Anna explained it to him.

Alex could understand that. He said with a hesitant tone. "So... how about leveling up Leoz with more EXP cards and maybe he could reach Martial King and kill King stage monster for us or even more?"

Unfortunately for him, before Anna could respond. His Gacha System had responded to him.

[If Host did that, you would break the system]

"Oh? Is this a loophole? Or is it a kind of genius that could break the system?" Alex asked in astonishment.

[Literally]

"..." Alex was speechless. Literally? Wouldn't that mean that his system would be broken if he did that? Wouldn't he have any system more?

[Yes, Host, you are right. The spirit can only get a maximum of one whole realm above you. You are in 5-Star Martial Grandmaster, that means, if you leveled up Leoz, he could only reach 5-Star Martial Lord]

"..."

[Of course, Host can level up other spirits. If you have two Martial Lord Spirits, it might be useful for you at some points]

"... Well, I can't say I'm not sad. I mean, I can give all resources to Leoz so he can become a Martial King or even Martial Emperor. That way, it will be more useful than an army of Martial Lords. But, If I lost you, doesn't that mean I will lose the spirits too?"

[Definitely]

"Sigh. Then, I won't do it." Alex could only sigh. He didn't know why, but he remembered the first time he felt the system was disappointing. He would curse the system, and the system would only say 'Love you too.' He did it frequently

After entering this world, he didn't have that urge anymore. Although he might get disappointed sometime, He also knew how much the system had helped him. If he didn't have the system, he might not be able to rise again after he got banished from the Zircodina Kingdom.

He might have died somewhere, and nobody will know. His previous self might find this unbelievable. He really came a long way from back then. And he still had his long journey.

"I see. Thank you."

Alex said, "Ten million Spirit Stones, I wonder what kind of things I could buy with that much money."

"You can buy many things, but I'm sure a slut from the red light district is not one of those things." Anna immediately answered... No, it wasn't an answer, it was a threat.

Alex only chuckled. Anna became bolder as time goes on. "Yeah, don't worry about it. I don't need them anyway."

After all, he had Alicia, Firia, and Anna, who was in front of him. Alex couldn't be more happy to reject something like that. After all, he believed in building a relationship more than falling in love at first sight.

Alex then grabbed the cards and spoke, "Guys, Anna and I are going now. I don't know if I can check your condition, so be careful outside there."

"Yes (Understood)" All the spirits answered.

"Let's go." Alex looked at Anna. After Anna nodded her head, Alex took out Anna's card and recalled her back.

Kyle and Sherry entered his body once more. After checking he didn't forget anything, he came out of his house.
