Chapter 1033 Spirit Crown



"…" Alex narrowed his eyes while falling into deep thought. 'What just happened? The energy I naturally released earlier was the same energy as the one I released before due to Rilt's power. And the Spirit Crown channeled that energy according to my will. Was it so I could take the attack in her place? No… It was so I could catch it.'

"That's right. It's your mind that programs it and your body will naturally follows. The fastest way to make you experience it is to force you to protect someone because that's the most important thing in your mind. Now that you've—" Before he finished, he sensed a moving presence along with the wind pressure that came to his way.

Alex appeared before him with his sword and spear, placing his sword on Rilt's neck. He said coldly, "I'm sorry…I know that you did it for my sake. But…Don't you dare point an attack at Anna again."

On the contrary, Rilt only smiled. "Sorry. I promise to never do that again. But please understand that all of this was for the sake of my dear daughter."

He raised his hand, giving a thumb up. It was not for Alex but the one behind him.

"What…" Alex turned around and saw Anna with an apologetic face, looking away with a guilty expression. "What do you mean…"

"Sorry, Alex."

"…" Alex blinked his eyes a few times, not knowing what to say.

A few minutes later, they arrived back inside the house.

Rilt and Anna sat down on the ground with one smack on Anna's head. On the other hand, Rilt was dying with all those wounds in his body as blood flowed to color the floor.

Next to them was Vina, who was glaring at them from above, asking, "I see, you set up this act to shoot at her while secretly using a light bullet which is supposed to turn into smoke instead of harming her at the same time."

Rilt raised his hand and said, "Wifey, Let me explain."

"Request denied." She calmly rejected it while narrowing her eyes, staring at Anna. "How dare you endanger our beloved daughter like that? And I feel sorry for Alex, who got manipulated like that…"

Anna's face turned pale as she hugged Alex. "I'm really sorry. It's all my fault."

"I'm not mad. It's okay." Alex let out a long sigh. "It's just that I thought you were going to be injured by your own father on top of that. I thought you had a happy family, but…Ugh, I'm just a bit shocked. I mean I am happy that you did it for me, but I am also mad that you endangered yourself…"

"You two need to repent." Vina nodded. "But Rilt… You are going to sleep outside for a month."

"No, no!" Rilt kneeled in front of her, begging her to take back that sentence. "That's essentially a death sentence."

"Your Majesty, mind holding him back first?" Vina smiled.

Alex immediately restricted Rilt's body since he had lost his strength from getting reprimanded by Vina.

Meanwhile, Vina looked at Anna and let out a long sigh. "As for you, Anna. Why don't we take a stroll together while I rebuke you?"

"Yes." Anna looked down, following Vina outside.

"Wait, my wife. I can't live without the warmth of your body." Rilt tried to escape, but Alex used his Spirit Step to restrain him.

When Vina and Anna were outside, she looked at the sky while walking slowly. "I am sure you already know this yourself. The Spirit King had always done something crazy when the people dear to him were injured…There was a time where he became so messed up. And if by chance you end up triggering it, are you prepared to face him like that anymore?"

"…" Anna closed her eyes, remembering the scene where only Alex went insane. At that time, only Lin Xingzhi could calm him down.

"I know that the enemy is getting closer and the time is almost up. That's why you did such a thing, but I just want to know whether you have the resolve to face the consequence."

Anna clenched her fists. "I am prepared to face all that challenge. Back then, the world was set ablaze, and even Sister Lin Xingzhi could barely contain him. However, I believe that it won't happen again. Unlike the previous time, I have accompanied Alex all the way. The time I spent with him told me that everything would be fine. Alexander Sirius is stronger than ever. I want to believe it."

"…" She let out a long sigh. "If you are ready to lose everything, I won't say anything then. Eulja has gotten into many turbulent times. That event even almost destroyed us. But well…I also believe that His Majesty is stronger than ever. And if he can control Spirit Crown sooner, it will reduce the possibility of that event happening again…"

"Yes. That's why…" Anna closed her eyes.

Bang.

Suddenly, someone slammed the door as Rilt came out of the house, tied. If one took a look at him, they would notice two dragons that acted like a rope, tying him to prevent him from escaping. It was Alex's Swallowing Heaven.

Behind him was Alex, a bit tired, after keeping this old man from rampaging.

Alex then looked at Anna. "I still believe that your safety is worth more than time. I don't mind if I need to use another one hundred years if I can see you safe and sound. Can you promise that this will be the last?"

Anna smiled. "Yes. This will be the last."

Alex then hugged her without saying anything. He wanted to know that there was nothing more important for him other than them. Anna also felt guilty about this, but to skip a long process, she had no choice.

"I'm sorry, Alex."

While they were hugging each other, Vina glanced at Rilt on the ground while giving an "O" sign that everything went well.

Rilt winked and thought the same.

"Mission Accomplished."

Meanwhile, Anya, who was left alone in the house, looked at the messy room and spotted the blood on the floor. She facepalmed while sighing. "I need to clean this up, I guess?"

After a few minutes, the group returned to the room. Anya had finished cleaning it and the food on the table was already arranged.

Since it was done, they began their feast. The tense atmosphere earlier had been replaced by a happy atmosphere.

They ate while joking with each other. Alex could also learn what kind of environment where Anna and Anya grew up in.

His family was like his family when he was a kid, especially when his sister's talent had yet to be discovered. It was a simple meal, but it looked like a party. There wasn't sadness and coldness in the dining room. There were only smiles and laughter.

After the meal, Rilt continued. "There is a difference between your Spirit Crown and my God Eyes. In fact, it's a superior ability to my God Eyes even though it was born from my God Eyes. It might be due to that boy's element, which was no element.

"My God Eyes could enhance one's ability, but it was more effective to Light Element users. However, due to the lack of elements that the former Spirit God had, he could enhance anyone he liked, thus giving birth to the Third Ability, Blossom.

"It allows you to upgrade someone's strength because of the lack of elements. In fact, all the Elemental Gods and Guardians had been enhanced by your Third Ability in the past. No, even Lin Xingzhi had received it too. If not, how could she create an Elemental Disturbance? Her strength is not at that level without your 'Blossom.'

"As for the fourth skill, Enhancement. It can only give your body the strength from the Spirit Crown. If you want to channel it to your own attack, you need the second skill."

Alex suddenly felt something wrong with his explanation and asked. "What is the relationship between elementless and the Spirit Crown?"

"You should know that there is not a single Spirit King has ever been born after you disappeared, right? Actually, there is a simple way to determine whether a Spirit King has been born or not. It's the Spirit Crown. If you want to wield the Spirit Crown, you need to be born without an element, which is impossible under the normal circumstance."

"True enough. I know that the Spirit will always belong to one's element after they were born." Alex nodded in agreement.

"Exactly. That's why no one can lead Eulja after the disappearance of the Spirit God."

"I see. But how can I wield it now?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows. "I mean, I am a Pure Fire Element user from the start."

"I am not too sure. But considering we are talking about the Spirit God, I am sure he has done something amazing with that time span. I meant he even knew that he was going to die and spread his plan everywhere."

"I can somehow imagine my past me doing that…" Alex repeatedly nodded before falling into deep thought.

"That's right. There is one thing that the Spirit God told me about your Spirit Crown. Don't use your "Blossom" on your Original Divine Skill just yet. One person is qualified for one Blossom in his entire life. That's why it's so important, so I believe he has something for you."

"I understand. I owed my past self so much. And knowing him, he would be thinking of using it to kill the beast."

"Well, I don't know what he thought, so I only passed this message to you." Rilt shrugged. "Within one year, I will be teaching you about the Blossom. This Spirit Crown can be considered above the Peak Divine Tier Technique, so I don't know if you can make it or not, but I wish you luck.

"Even though you can't channel it to your Sword Attack, you should be able to power up your sword like what I showed you earlier."

"I understand. How about the other techniques?"

"Blossom is an easy but tedious thing. I will teach you only when you have become the real king that has been acknowledged by the entire Eulja. As for your Sharing, the second technique, I will teach you after reaching Rank 6 God. I believe it won't be that long for you to reach Rank 7 God, right?"

"Yes. I will advance to Rank 7 God first before leaving this world." Alex nodded with a serious expression. "As for the Rank 6 God, I believe I can reach it within five to ten years."

"That's good then." He nodded. "That's the current plan anyway, so do you have any desire in training?"

"I don't think so. There is only one more thing that I want you to observe?"

"What is it?"

"I have this method of training that is breaking my body but allows me to get stronger faster at the same time. I want you to observe my body to see the side effects and other things."

"I am not a doctor. Although I can heal you, I have no confidence in dealing with this problem. For example, we have this vase. If I destroy it, I can just stick each piece together and make it like a new one. However, what you are experiencing is caused by the weakening of the vase itself. In other words, you are becoming more brittle. There is no way I can heal that."

"I see." Alex looked down and fell into deep thought. "As expected, I really need to see the doctor. Well, I will be seeing her anyway."

"Hmm…Who is she? Your Wife?"

"Not really. You know the Palm God, right?"

"Ah, now I see. She is indeed one of the most talented doctors out there, but what is she to you? Your wife?"

"There is a misunderstanding between us, and I am planning to solve it as soon as possible. Well, I kind of like her." Alex answered honestly.

"I don't care if you are going to have one thousand wives, just don't neglect my daughters. Or I will destroy your castle…Wait, my wife will be the one."

"There is no way I will leave them." Alex put on a genuine smile.

"Is that so? I guess I don't need to worry then."
