Gacha Sovereign

329 Mithra

\"!!!\"

After noticing the power of Alex's brand new intent. She immediately released her full power to break this Seven Stars Cut.

\"Boom!\"

Alex looked at the female undead. After using her full power, she was able to stop his attack completely. But it also attracted the attention of his spirits as Leoz immediately appeared in front of him.

Leoz was ready to charge upon her, but the woman suddenly said, \"You… pass…\"

Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

\"Pu-!\"

\"Pu?\" Alex and the spirits were confused. They did not know what she meant by 'Pu.'

\"Pu…pu hahahaha!\" The female undead suddenly laughed. And surprisingly, she laughed like a human. There was no such a trace like her broken speech from earlier.

\"Hahaha… I can't act like this anymore. It is really hard not to laugh this whole time.\" She said with a normal speech.

\"You…\"

\"Haha… sorry sorry. I just want to see what kind of person I have been waiting for.\"

\"You have been waiting for me?\" Alex remembered that she said he had been waiting for him before they fought.

\"To think that bastard Maxwell made me wait for this kid that is even more monstrous than he was. This is really a laughing matter.\"

\"?!\" Alex was surprised to hear his master name in her mouth. He asked, \"You know my master?\"

\"So, he is your master, no wonder. But, did he never introduce me?\" She asked.

There was only a confused look on his face. \"Who are you?\"

\"I am Mithra. I am his friend, or you can also say I am indebted to him, so I agreed to wait for you and give you the thing he wanted to give you, Space Plate. Unfortunately, because of many events, I lost that technique.\"

\"Mithra?\" Alex was startled. It was the name that his master told him. He remembered that his master gave her the Space Plate and gave Skewes the Spatial Door. \"Master has talked about you.\"

\"Oh. He did!\" Mithra looked at Alex's confused look and laughed again. \"Well, seeing your confused look, I shall explain everything from the start. But it will take a bit of time, so I think the people beside you need to chill down first.\"

She looked at Anna and the others who were still clenching their weapon. \"How scary. I just want to test him. And he is far more monstrous than that man.\"

Alex sighed. He said to his spirits, \"It is fine.\"

Anna and the others finally dropped their weapon.

Alex finally understood why she could enter the barrier. But he needed to confirm it first, \"You… have master's token, right?\"

\"Oh, you mean this?\" She suddenly took out two tokens. The two tokens were the same as Alex's token. \"They are my token and Skewes Token. I am sure you also know about Skewes since you have heard my name.\"

Alex nodded.

\"Then, I will start from the time where Maxwell continued his journey. After we got separated from him, Skewes and I were clueless since we could not follow him because we were too weak.

\"So, rather than becoming his burden, Skewes and I chose to stay in this continent. I found out that Skewes chose to settle down with his wife while I was planning to roam through another continent.

\"Of course, at my own pace. After that, I started roaming through the Northern Continent and becoming a Martial King as well as a Sword King. Unfortunately, when I became a peak Martial King, I opened a pandora box.

\"I was chased by many Martial Kings and even Martial Emperors after that. I could only escape to this place, and luckily, they came to this place. I used a forbidden technique, and it made me like this.

\"Nonetheless, I could butcher all those people with the forbidden technique. And finally turned them into undead like the ones you have killed. All of them were former Martial Kings and Martial Emperors, you know. But I could only turn them into undead at Martial Lord level.

\"Albeit, it has been a few thousand years for me in this place. Even I got a little bored, so I tested as well as teased you a little bit. Anyway… I could finally see someone that is far more monstrous than him. I am pretty satisfied with that.

\"Anyway, here is the reward.\" She took out a green box, but the box seemed to be only a half.

Alex received it with good care. He rolled the box around to see what kind of box it was. He even used his Spirit Eyes to look at it. But nothing seemed to stand out.

\"Hehe… Because of the pursuit, I broke this one, but I was sure no one from the people who pursued me got it. So, it should still be on this continent.\"

\"What is the use of this box?\" Alex asked.

\"There is a trial in the Northern Continent. And this box is the key to that trial. The trial will be held every hundred years. As for the specific year… don't ask me. I have been caged up in this place for so long, so I have lost track of time.

\"And the people in this continent do not know how important this box is, so even if you get the other half, you would be fine. But, make sure no one from the Northern Continent knows it, if not… Haiz, you can imagine it yourself.\"

Alex nodded his head. There was only one picture he could imagine. And he did not want that.

\"Anyway… I am sorry I could not give the Space Plate to you, so think this one as the compensation.\"

\"Do not worry, Senior. I have learned Spatial Door and Space Plate.\" Alex said.

\"Oh… Then that's good. It seems you have found them, so I do not have any worry.\" Mithra said.

Alex looked at her. He was thinking of how absurd she was. She had been waiting in this goddamn world just to give him this.

\"Anyway, before I go, what do you want to do by coming to this place?\" Mithra asked.

\"I need to undergo my lightning tribulation in this place. But…\" Alex paused a little bit as he looked at her with a hesitant expression. \"But, the barrier might break after I finish my tribulation.\"

\"Oh… You are worried about me. Haha, you do not need to mind about me. I have been bored anyway in this place. After meeting you, I have fulfilled my promise. I am Mithra, and I will never break my promise. And since I have fulfilled my promise, it is time for me to go.

\"But I will try to stick around to see your tribulation since I am sure it is not a normal tribulation. After all, you won't go to this place just for your tribulation. The outside world won't be able to see what is going on inside, so I am sure you want to hide this tribulation of yours very much.\"

\"Sure,\" Alex said. He did not mind since she was no stranger, and she won't tell anyone since she could not go out.

\"But before that, I want to teach you something,\" Mithra said.

Alex looked at her in confusion.

\"I was astonished when I saw you, released two intents at the same time. And surprisingly, both intents were equal, and you even managed to fuse them together. It was insane.

\"It seems you already have the Heart of Sword and Heart of Spear. You combined them together and made a brand new intent.\"

Alex nodded his head. He indeed did that, and it was thanks to her that he could do something like that. If Alex did not observe how she used her Sword Intent, he might not be able to fuse them together in a short time. Both of his domains also got much stronger.

\"Well, what I wanted to teach you is about the next stage. Since you are a Sword and Spear Grandmaster, do you know the difference between a Sword Grandmaster and a Sword King?\"

Alex shook his head. He never heard about that.

\"A Sword King could treat everything as a Sword.\" She said. Of course, with that sort of explanation, it only confused Alex more. She continued, \"A Sword King could treat everything as a sword because they have the Heart of Sword.

\"I never expected you to learn about it in the test. I indeed want to teach you about it in the test. But I only want to pique your interest in it. After I defeat you, I will then teach you about it. But to think you have acquired it first in our battle.

\"Anyway, this was my enlightenment phrase that led me to become a Sword King. 'Even if I don't have a sword, there is still a sword in my heart. With it, I will treat everything as my sword.' Or something along the line, I am sure you are similar to that.\"

Alex nodded. He indeed kept recalling that similar line before he managed to do it.

\"Then, what do you think is the reason why I can use my Sword Intent in a wooden stick or my hand?\"

\"???\" Alex could not think of any possible reason.

\"It is Sword Domain. Don't you feel the Sword Domain is pretty useless? I mean, they indeed have some use, but that's all.\"

Alex thought about it. He could use his Sword Domain to feel the enemy inside his domain as well as weaken incoming attacks. But that was all. At least, he thought the basic, Sword Intent, was more useful than that. But considering the level of Sword Grandmaster was even higher than Sword Master, the domain should be more useful.

\"Yeah. It is pretty confusing about that. But you should train your Domains a little bit. You can try to shape them around. Watch me.\" Mithra then released her Sword Domain.

It was the usual sphere domain. Although she released only a few meter domain since she only wanted to show Alex about it, she suddenly shaped the domain into a cross.

The former sphere domain suddenly turned into a cross, and then she changed her domain again into a straight line. This made him baffled.

Alex was shocked to see the domain could be shaped.

\"If you can send your Sword Intent flying is the requirement before you can become a Sword Grandmaster. Then, shaping your Domain as you like is the requirement you need before becoming a Sword King.

\"And if you managed to shape it how you like, you can try to condense it as gloves in your hand.\" She said. She then shrunk her domain, and only her hands were covered by the domain that contained her Sword Intent.

Alex was watching this in astonishment. Well, he did not have any proper teacher that taught him about technique or such.

\"You can condense the domain to your hands or to any other things like the wooden stick I used just now and turn them into a weapon. Well, they could be equal to a Sword or even stronger than your normal sword.

\"Of course, ideally, you condense the domain and cover your sword with it. If all Sword Kings only condense it to their hand or any other thing, the Forging Masters will go bankrupt.\"

Alex nodded his head.

\"That is the requirement to be a Sword King. If you can do just that, then you are a Sword King. I am a peak Sword King, and some rumors even stated the requirement to be a Sword Emperor is to make an original Sword Skill. But unlike a normal Sword Art, this Sword Art could only be used by your Sword Intent.

\"In other words, it was a Sword Skill that only you could use. Well, I am a bit unsure about it too. So, do not trust my words that much. Maybe in the future, you will know the real requirement.\" She explained.

\"Yes. Thank you very much for your guidance, Senior.\"
