Gacha Sovereign
chapter-342

Alex already escaped from the sect to avoid them. He could come back anytime after they went back to Rainbow Flower Sect. Since Njomo was following them, he could keep track of their movement, so he knew the right time to go back.

Alex, Evelyn, and Anna arrived at the capital city of Thiveapia Kingdom, Plabele, after a few days of flying.

"Welcome to my kingdom's capital city, Plabele," Evelyn said with a smile.

Alex nodded.

"So, what do you want to do? I can show you around if you want."

Alex pondered it a little bit. He did not care about the capital city since his purpose in this city was to join the auction and get the box.

"I want to get the ticket first… I guess." Alex said. Since he thought he should not get it on the last day.

"Alright. We are going to the auction house. It is not far from here, so we will arrive there in a jiffy." Evelyn said with a smile.

Alex only nodded his head as he followed her. They arrived at the auction house in a few minutes. Evelyn then led him to the counter, and the receptionist immediately recognized her. They kneeled in front of her.

"Your Highness."

"Un, does unc- I mean, does the manager in this place?"

"Yes. Your Highness, he is in his office."

"Then, I will go to his place. I know the place, so I don't need any guide." Evelyn said.

"Yes!"

They were also wondering who was behind the princess that seemed to act around the princess casually. But with his mask, he appeared mysterious and that made them unable to question him, especially with Princess Evelyn in front of them.

Evelyn led him to the office upstairs. She suddenly opened the door without even trying to knock.

"Uncle, I have come back!" She shouted with a happy expression.

Inside the room, there was a middle-aged man that seemed to be busy with the paperwork as there were a few mountains of papers in his desk. But when Evelyn came, his stern face completely disappeared as he rose from his seat.

"Oh, Evelyn. You finally come back. Come here and hug your uncle. I really miss you." He said with a smile, leaving his work behind.

Alex could see that there were two other people in the room. Because of her joy, Evelyn did not notice them, but Alex noticed them. She had long and smooth black hair like Evelyn. But to her surprise, she was very similar to Lena.

With her beautiful eyes filled with wisdom, she appeared to be elegant. She should be a royalty, Alex thought. But he did not know why, but Alex felt a bit repulsive to her.

The other person was a guy of the same age as him. He had short black hair. But there was this gentle expression in his face that made him appear to be a gentle guy. It felt like he would be a reliable friend. But he did not know why, but he looked like a fool. He felt he was a person that might even forgive someone that tried to kill him.

Well, it was only their first meeting, so he did not think about it any longer. Alex then looked at the middle-aged man. He had short black hair, but Alex could spot a few strands of white hair on his head.

He also had the same gentle and kind expression as the guy, but his eyes filled with wisdom and experiences. Even so, from Evelyn's reaction alone, he seemed to be a good uncle. Well, whether it was a farce or not, Alex would not know it. He remembered about the Zircodina's king. His appearance might be wise, but in fact, he was not as all of it was only a front.

Alex did not really care about him since this might be the only time they would meet. But since the situation became like this, Alex decided to recall Anna back to the card. He could just tell her that Anna was running an errand for him to the Alchemist Guild, and she would believe it.

"Still, the innocent brat from back then, now has turned into a pretty young girl. I am glad." The middle-aged man said.

"Uncle, don't tease me." Evelyn pouted.

"Haha… I might not be able to tease you any longer. But to think you have become a 6-Star Martial Grandmaster in two years. Heavenly Sword Sect is insane."

"!!!" When they heard that, the two young people immediately dropped their work and looked at Evelyn.

"Hehe… I am just lucky. Well, I can only thank big brother Al- I mean, big brother Redna."

"Big brother Redna?" The middle-aged man was surprised. He finally looked at the masked man outside the room.

"Big brother Redna is the one who trained me. If not, I might still be in the Martial Master stage." Evelyn said.

The others were surprised when they heard that, especially for those two young people. They could look into his face because of that mask. But the thing that troubled them was because they could not sense his cultivation level.

But if he was the one who helped Evelyn reach this level in just two years, he should not be a mortal. In other words, he should be stronger than them.

But when the middle-aged saw him, he thought there must be a trick in his cultivation. He did not know the trick, but with that trick, Alex could conceal his real cultivation stage.

After all, there must be a reason why Alex wanted to conceal his cultivation stage. If he was a truly powerful person, he did not need to use a mask. Of course, Alex had a solution if that happened, but he did not need to use it if not required.

But, since he was Evelyn's uncle, and in fact, one of the closest family to her, he greeted Alex while stretching his hand for a handshake. "Pleasure to meet you. I am Matthew, Evelyn's uncle."

"Redna," Alex could see that he was an 8-Star Martial Lord. He shook Matthew's hand.

"Big brother Redna wants to participate in the auction."

"Oh. You want to get into an auction, how about you come with me?" Suddenly, the woman on the side spoke.

Alex looked at her. He was a bit surprised with her 3-Star Martial Lord Stage cultivation, but Alex did not know why this woman suddenly talked like that. After all, this was the first time she saw him.

Alex looked at them silently, as he did not know who they were. Evelyn then came to him and introduced them, "She is my eldest sister, the first princess, Luna. And this is my second brother, the second prince, Johan."

Alex nodded his head as a greeting. "I am thankful for the Princess's invitation, but I think I will have my own room."

"Room?" They were confused, especially Matthew.

Alex turned to Matthew and nodded his head. He took out a space ring and gave it to him.

When Matthew checked the space ring, he was dumbfounded. After receiving the space ring, he immediately went back to his job as the head of the auction head and formally accepted Alex's space ring. "Twenty… Ah, I apologize. I see, since esteemed guest wants a VVIP room, let me give you the VVIP ticket for the auction."

Alex nodded calmly. He was calm, but the others were not, including Evelyn. They were so shocked as they could understand what Matthew meant by twenty. With the VVIP ticket, they could guess that Alex had more than ten million Spirit Stones. Since Matthew said 'Twenty,' it meant in that space ring alone, there were twenty million Spirit Stones.

And no ordinary person could get all of that. Especially a loose cultivator. In other words, Alex should come from an influence. The prince and princess thought like that. But Evelyn, who was with him this whole time, was confused.

She never thought Alex had that much money. She remembered that Alex even let her train inside a rank 4 Gathering Array and even provided her with the Spirit Stones. In the two weeks alone, she used a few thousand Spirit Stones.

However, Alex never batted an eye with that kind of money. She finally understood why. Alex simply had too much money, and it might not even be his bottom line.

The first princess was truly dumbfounded about this. She was curious about the person who trained Evelyn. He should not be an ordinary person. That was the reason why she invited him to join the auction with her.

"That's right. Where is big sister Anna?" Evelyn asked.

"She went to Alchemist Guild for me," Alex said.

"Oh!" Evelyn only nodded her head since she knew Alex's identity as an Alchemist. She thought Anna must be running an errand for him.

Alex also said she went to the Alchemist guild to lessen the suspicion to these people, lest they might think he used Evelyn to infiltrate the kingdom.

"Your esteemed guest, this is your VVIP ticket. You just need to present it to the guard when you come to the auction house. There will be our people that will guide you to your room." Matthew said as he gave Alex a golden card and his space ring.

He continued, "I assume this is your first time here. We will not keep your Space Ring in our custody. As long as we validate you have ten million Spirit Stones, then it is enough for you to be qualified for our VVIP ticket."

Alex was surprised. He never thought it was this easy. After all, he might borrow this Space Ring from someone who might already get a VVIP ticket.

"Are you sure? I might borrow this money from someone though."

"You jest. Usually, we are running for a few validation processes. But since my niece brings you here, I am sure you are trustworthy. You can also treat it as my thanks for training my niece." Matthew said.

Alex nodded his head.

"You can also present the golden card to the Charmen inn. It is the inn in front of our building. We have a partnership with them. Esteemed guest can wait for the auction to start in your inn."

"Alright." Alex then took a glance at his paperwork, before turning his head at him, "Since you are busy, I should not keep you any longer."

Noticing Alex wanted to leave, Evelyn chased him while waving her hand to Matthew. "Uncle. Don't worry. I will accompany big brother Redna until the auction. I will also come back to the family to say hi."

Matthew could only shake his head when he saw her. "That girl…"

The second prince frowned when he saw that while the first princess smiled. No one knew what was in their mind.

…

Alex never cared about something like that. When he arrived outside, he immediately went to the inn. He was planning to cultivate to pass the time. Of course, since there was still more than a week, he might even need to make a Gathering Array for Sherry and Kyle.

The inn was really high. They had around twenty floors. Alex was surprised to see such a tall building. He was wondering if the architect in this world was that good or the material was that strong, considering he was in the cultivation world.

When they came inside, the people immediately recognized Evelyn when they came. They kneeled to her. Alex then showed his golden card, and the inn staff immediately led him to the special room. They said the room was the entire floor.

Well, it was good enough for him since Alex could make Gathering Array for Sherry and Kyle. He summoned Anna to supervise Sherry and Kyle.

He was not going anywhere, so Alex told Evelyn to come back to her home, so she could visit her family. Evelyn then accepted his offer and would come back on the auction day.

After she left, Alex then proceeded to his cultivation. He took out his wine. He might not be able to use it that much again as there was only a third of the jar. Well, it could give him another one or two stars so it should be fine. He then drank the wine.
