Gacha Sovereign

A few days later, at night,

He was still cultivating on his bed before Anna suddenly came to his room with Nicole's card in her hand.

"Alex, Nicole wants to talk."

Alex nodded and took Nicole's card from her hand. "What is it?"

"It is as you expected young master, they tried to imprison her. I have seen their conversation, it seems they were truly forced by the situation. And she still wants to stop the war."

"I see. You will kidn- Ahem, I mean, rescue her back to the sect tomorrow."

"Understood." Alex then handed back her card to Anna.

"Why tomorrow?"

"They should be able to inform the other influences to start moving within a day. And when the Thiveapia Kingdom started moving, they will halt their advance as soon as they know Evelyn is missing."

"I see." Anna nodded her head. She sat on the bed before lying down on the bed. She used Alex's lap as her pillow. She asked timidly, "Alex... it is already a month… Um, can we…"

Alex smiled when he saw her like this. He stroked her hair as he bent down and kissed her on the lips. It was not like they were a s.e.x maniac, so doing it once or twice a month was perfectly normal. They did not even do this if Alex was in trouble or did something special like in Zwaka's place.

After kissing her, he said, "Why do you even ask…"

Both of them smiled and started kissing again before a long burning night.

…

A few hours ago,

Evelyn finally arrived at the castle after a long journey. She rushed toward this place, so her face was a bit tired when she arrived. But the determination had yet to leave her eyes.

Because the sun was almost set, she knew her father, the king, must still be in the throne room. She immediately barged in.

There were a few people inside the room, including her father, who sat on his throne.

"Oh, my Evelyn has come back." Her father said with a smile. He had wavy black hair. Black crystal eyes with a short beard fully complemented his gentle expression. He was the current king, as well as Evelyn's father, Luke.

He was still holding a small meeting with a few ministers to discuss their plan in this battle. Even though they did not want to make war like this, they did not have any other option. With the envoys from Mount Hua Sect killed in their territory, Their reputation had taken a full brunt.

If they did not solve this situation, not only would they be pressured by Mount Hua Sect, they would also be known as an untrustable kingdom. They were not that afraid of the Mount Hua Sect.

However, if they became known as an untrustable kingdom, many people would leave their kingdom. It would greatly impact their economy that would lead to the stability of their kingdom.

In other words, their kingdom will decline and might even perish if the other influences tried to attack them.

He also speculated that Heavenly Sword Sect might not perish. But he was still worried about his son and daughters in the sect, especially Evelyn. Seeing her arrived at this place had soothed his heart.

"Father, I need to talk to you about this war. I want you to not participate in this war. I can guarantee you if you join this war, you will regret it in the future." Evelyn said.

However, her words immediately made the ministers frown. Luke sighed and asked the ministers to go back. They wanted to rebuke her, but she was currently the number one genius in this kingdom, as well as the successor of this kingdom since the crown prince was missing or died, so they only followed Luke's instruction and left the room.

"Come here first and hug your father. Even though I saw you a few months ago, I already miss you, little girl." Luke stood up and opened his hands wide.

Evelyn hugged him back.

"How are you in the sect? No one bullies you, right?"

"No, I just trained these few months." Evelyn shook her head.

"I see. Then, that's good. To think you have advanced another star in these two months…"

"Of course, this is all thanks to big brother Alex."

"Yeah yeah. You also said his name last time. I am really curious about him, who has trained my precious daughter to this degree in just two years. Well, he is already famous to a certain degree, but I still want to see him in person."

"Big brother is in the sect, so father, please don't join this war, alright? I am saying this for our kingdom."

"Haiz… I am also pressured to make this decision. I truly don't want to trouble you with the problem in our kingdom. You are like your mother, pure and free. I just wish you to experience the world freely and come back to meet me when you have time. That's why I made Cromwell as the crown prince who will succeed this throne later." Luke said with a sad smile.

"Father… knows that big brother Crown Prince wants to kill me, right?" Evelyn said in a hesitant tone.

"I know. I don't know from when, but Cromwell used to be an honest child. Although he was a bit cunning at a time, it was necessary for him to have that if he wanted to be a sovereign. However, whatever he did, he always thought about his family.

"I think this must happen because of his mother's death, AKA. Your first mother. She is always jealous of your mother even though I loved them equally. Sadly, before I knew it, her influence already changed Cromwell.

"Luckily, I managed to send your brother Timothy to Heavenly Sword Sect before her influence got inside him. And when I knew that he was planning to kill you, I immediately sent you to Heavenly Sword Sect.

"After all, I can't choose anyone because I love all of you the same. You also can't leave the kingdom if Cromwell is not the crown prince. So, I hope you forgive me. I am too useless as your father." Luke sighed.

"No no, I know father has worked hard and always thinks about us first. That's right, how about big sister Lena and big brother Timothy?"

"Lena decided to stay there while Timothy is on the way here."

"Then, I can just go back to the sect again. This way, you will have a reason why you can't move the soldiers."

"No can do! Without Cromwell, no one is worthy enough to lead the kingdom after I retire. If you come back there, I certainly would not be able to move the soldiers." Luke said.

"Then that's go-!"

"But that doesn't mean the others won't move," Luke shouted at her for the first time of his life.

"Others? You mean the Southern Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom?"

"You know about it?" Luke was surprised. He immediately summoned her back the moment he knew Zhou Kingdom's participation as well as the movement from the Southern Kingdom.

The Zhou Kingdom had sent a peace envoy to them. He and his ministers were enraged since the attacking kingdom suddenly sent a peace envoy. But they did not know why but the Mount Hua Sect also asked their kingdom to accept this peace treaty.

And when he knew the Southern Kingdom also moved. He decided to accept the treaty as long as they waited until he summoned back his daughters and his son, which they agreed. Even without their participation, Luke knew Heavenly Sword Sect wouldn't be able to withstand their attacks.

"If you know about it, then don't go back! Losing Cromwell already tore my heart. And Lena did not want to go back. If you are also inside the sect, do all of you want to kill me?!" Luke said with a heartbreaking tone. Even tears already dropped from his eyes.

Evelyn also unconsciously teared up. She knew her father loved his sons and daughters equally. However, she had to protect her father and her kingdom.

"Father, how about fighting alongside Heavenly Sword Sect?"

"I can't! Our kingdom is not in a condition to fight three influences even with the help of Heavenly Sword Sect."

Evelyn tried to come up with another reason to persuade him but to no avail. Of course, she did not know about the matter concerning Rainbow Flower Sect. Although Alex had abandoned that idea. Evelyn thought she might be able to persuade them with the Thiveapia Kingdom's reputation. Sadly, she did not know that.

She was trying to come up with an idea but to no avail. After seeing there was no chance to persuade her father, she could only go back to the sect empty-handed. At least, she would at least help him even with her alone as well as stopping the movement from her kingdom. "No. I can't! Even if there is no other option, I will still go back to the sect."

"You…" Luke was too surprised by her resolve. He immediately grabbed her hands and shouted. "You… I won't let you go. I will lock you up in your room until this thing passes.

"I will just say to others you have been brainwashed by the Heavenly Sword Sect.I don't care if you hate me for this, all I want is just your safety." He said with tears kept flowing in his eyes. After all, he was a father before a king. It pained his heart by doing this. "Guard!"

…

A few minutes later,

Evelyn was locked in her room. The door was locked with a few guards standing by in front of the door. There were also a few people outside that were keeping her from going out of the window.

She was truly locked in this room. She had promised Alex that she would convince her father so he won't participate in this battle. She knew her father also had his circ.u.mstances, but she was also afraid if he joined this battle, Alex would surely remember this.

Although there was some speculation, Evelyn thought the incident in the Southern Kingdom was a bit obvious for the people who knew Alex. Whether it was Kasmanan Family or Makmur Family, she thought it must be Alex who did that.

She did not know how Alex could do that, but she knew Alex must have his way. After all, according to what she experienced this entire time, Alex was a peerless genius. He managed to make her tap to her full potential, increasing her cultivation speed by several times.

It was absurd, considering Alex was just a few years older than her. But even with all of that hard work, he was still able to beat her cultivation speed. The first time they met, they had the same cultivation stage. But today, Alex was a Martial Lord while she was still a Martial Grandmaster.

And with the experience in the auction house… there was no way a normal person could fork out 77 million Spirit Stones without sparing a glance. Alex must have big background.

However, she was also useless here. She tried to come out of the room, whether from door or window, but to no avail. She would be stopped by the guards. And most importantly, she could not even give him any information about this.

Evelyn sat on her bed, trying to come up with a plan. But with the clock kept ticking and time continued to move forward, and after a day, she began to feel despair. Nothing came to her mind.

However, unbeknownst to her, the people that were guarding from the outside were knocked down by a pink-haired woman. She sat on the top of the castle and smiled. "Luckily, the king seems decent enough. So, our king doesn't need to massacre these people.

"With her disappearance, this would make them stop. Hmm… I need to make a letter about this, I think. Let just say that we have Evelyn inside the Heavenly Sword Sect. This will be your last warning. We can bring her out like this is also means we can kill all of you without anyone noticing.

"Our win is already guaranteed as those fools are coming to die. Shall you point your sword to us, it will be the start of your eternal doom. From: Spirit Nest. Hm… this is pretty good. Alright, just use this." She smiled as she put the paper inside her space ring. Alex was not a miser anymore, and he would always equip them with a few Space Rings for every spirit.

After finishing her business, she finally jumped down before floating in front of Evelyn's room. She used her Spiritual Energy to open the window and came inside.

When Evelyn saw her, she was shocked. She felt she had seen her before.

"You… you are the one who saved me back then." Evelyn remembered the pink-haired woman that saved her in the war. Although she only saw her back, her pink hair still stuck in her mind. If she was not wrong, she called Alex her king.

"Fufu... Nice to meet you again, little girl. My ki- ahem, my Young Master has predicted this would happen. So, I am here to bring you out of this place."
