Gacha Sovereign

470 Kyle's Pas

Inside the boat, Alex and Shelka were sitting in front of the queen and her daughter. Sherry was sitting on Alex's lap while the queen was still hugging Kyle. Alex did not know what to do with this situation.

"I see. So, you are the benefactor of my husband and a Pure Fire Element user. No, it might be because of that, my Husband follows you. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?" The queen asked politely.

"Alexander Sirius."

"Nice to meet you. I am Stina Blaze and this is my daughter Ellen Blaze." She introduced herself.

Alex nodded.

"May I know how you come to this world?" Stina suddenly asked an absurd question that shocked all of them.

"What do you mean?" Alex feigned ignorance.

"You don't need to hide it. My husband has gone to another world to follow the Supreme. Because of that, I was separated from him for a few thousand years. You might not know, but we can rebirth ourselves with Fire and become a newborn phoenix with memory intact.

"My daughter is still on her first though, she is a few hundred years old since I purposely slowed her birth for a few thousand years, hoping my husband would come back before she was born. Albeit, he never comes back and she is already a few hundred years old." She sobbed.

"Kyle… I never thought you…" Alex looked at Kyle with a complicated expression.

"Your name is Kyle now? Well, it does not matter since I will always call you Hubby. Even Ellen will call you father."

"Wait, Master. How can you believe her just like that? I don't have any clue what she is talking about." Kyle said.

"Ah, you call him Master… I see. You have made a Life and Death Contract with him." The queen closed her eyes before she suddenly bowed her head. "Would you mind if he stops following you and stays here? This is my request. Of course, I will also properly compensate you."

Alex pondered for a moment. Back then, he met Kyle and felt pity for him. He took him because he thought Kyle would be useful for him, but to think he already considered him as his family before he knew it. He had yet to believe Kyle was her husband though, so he decided to pry more information.

"You can say I am coming from another world. I am on my way to what you called the Northern Continent. You must have a record with that name, right?" Alex said. Even the priest knew about it, so the ruler of Phoenix should know about this.

"Indeed." Stina nodded. At the same time, Shelka was frowning. To think he was coming from another world despite the fact that the portal was sealed, this was truly interesting. However, she also noticed that this Ellen had been staring at Alex for a while.

"I see… Ellen, hurry up and call your father." Stina looked to the side.

Ellen seemed very reluctant to do it.

"You don't want to? This is perfect, I should tell you about your father." She turned to Alex, "Will you mind to hear me rumbling about this?"

"It's fine. I am curious about Kyle's story too."

"This is a story from a few thousand years ago…

"I was still a princess back then with my father as the current ruler. My brother wanted the throne but because I had more talent than him, my father made me his successor. However, my brother could not take it and made a scheme to kill me.

"He almost succeeded in that scheme and chased me out of the castle. At that time, I was pursued by his subordinates. I arrived at a certain mountain and was surrounded in that place. It was at that time he appeared.

"He introduced himself as a Phoenix that could not be a Phoenix just because he was short one point according to the crystal.

"I fell in love with him when I saw him risking his life to save a stranger like me. I was not like a Princess at that time. Even then, he still helped me.

"I chose to stay for a while as an ordinary woman and followed him around. Although he was a bit dumb back then, every day was always fun. Not long after that, my brother found me and managed to take me away. Because my father was still alive, he could not kill me as he already took several blows when my father knew about that scheme.

"Because of that, my father forced me to marry my own brother, so he could make him a king and me a queen. That was the most devastating event in my life.

"I never thought he would also fall in love with me after that and chased me to the castle. He took me out of the castle.

"Of course, my father could not swallow it and tried to chase us. We continuously escaped from him and unknowingly, my father finally breathed his last and my brother took the throne.

"If my father wanted to get me back to the castle, my brother wanted to kill me. At this time, we met the former Supreme and my husband showed his growth. He kept getting stronger and stronger while weakening my brother's faction. After finally, we managed to kill my brother and retook the throne.

"We started calming the chaotic situation and restoring the lands that had been ruined due to our fights or my brother's tyrannical rule. And after we finished all of that, we finally married and I was pregnant not long after.

"However, the chaos appeared again in this land. It was when the Portal was opened, not from our side but from the other side. Normally, it was impossible to open it from the other side because it was a Rune where we could send people to the other side and not vice versa.

"It seemed that the people from the other side tweaked it somehow and made a portal that connected these two worlds. They made dragons their pets, phoenixes as their cultivation resources, elves as their sex slaves, angel races as they watch birds, nagas became fishes in a pond for their enjoyment and humans as their laborer.

"It was at this time our six races rose and Supreme became the leader of this coalition. We fought back and somehow managed to push them back to the other side.

"The Supreme decided to destroy the portal and let each race have a crystal. He said that whoever managed to gather all the crystals, he or she would open the portal once again. The six races should bond together under him and come to the other side.

"He also made a rule for trials. Human Race was Adaptability, Elven Race was Element Manipulation, Dragon Race was Strength, Angel Race was Mind, Naga Race was Soul, and lastly, our Phoenix Race was Will.

"Shall someone manage to pass all those trials, open the portal because the time has come as a Peerless Genius has born. Thus the secret of the trial. The Phoenix Race has the longest lifespan, so maybe, only me still knows about this as he forbade us to record the official statement.

"After that, he came to the other side to destroy the portal. We thought the Supreme had sacrificed himself for us. However, it seemed that he was chasing someone back then, not just for the sake of the portal. I knew about it because Husband told me he had a greater mission on the other side, so he wanted to help him because he had helped him in the past. I don't know about the other races though.

"I was just about to tell him that I was pregnant since I could not say it when we were fighting against those outsiders. Ultimately, I could not tell him because he already chased after the Supreme. Thus I decided I would wait no matter how long it would be, I would wait for him to finish his mission and come back.

"Because I am a thousand years away from my lifespan, I chose to hibernate to prolong it so when my husband comes back, I could greet him with this form of mine. If he has not come back, I would then go to another rebirth process. This might be a fruitless path, but I choose to do it. After all, my love for him is eternal. Ahem, it seems the story deviates a little bit.

"Anyway, after I retake the throne, I marry him. There were many oppositions back then since my husband does not even have 70 bloodline points. But he shut them up with his strength.

"69… it is our special number… It is our favorite posi- Ahem, I should not talk about that. Anyway, it is our favorite number as our marriage on 6th month 9.

"I am planning to hibernate and let my daughter take over as I wait for him, but it seems there is no need to do that since I can see him now.

"That's why I am asking you to let him stay with me." She begged.

"Kyle… how could you leave your family behind… she was even pregnant with your child." Alex shook his head, looking very disappointed.

"No. I am going with Master." Kyle looked at Alex, "Master, don't believe her. I don't have any memory about that."

"Maybe, you can also stay here." She suggested.

"I see. I could understand your sentiment. However, I still need to come back. I have another thing to do on the other side."

"You can't. You won't be able to go back as the portal is closed. That's why please stay here. I can't afford to separate from my husband again." She could not kill him anyway since Kyle would also die along with him.

"That is the exact reason I am going to this place," Alex said. "I want to open the portal again."

"But… there is one crystal that is lost for thousands of years… Wait, don't tell me…" She looked at him dumbfoundedly.

"Yeah. I possess that crystal." Alex nodded. "That's why I am going to challenge the trial."

"..." Stina could not believe her ears. She blinked for a few seconds before sighing. "I see. You have that last one… Then, my husband will follow you to another world again…"

Alex closed his eyes.

"That's why I am going too!" She suddenly said and surprised everyone.

"Huh?"

"I am planning to let my daughter take over my place, so why not? Since I have nothing to do, then adventuring with my husband to the end of time sounds good to me." She nodded.

"Mother?!"

"Just say this is my retirement. Since I have found my husband and Ellen is strong and experienced enough to replace me, I could go somewhere else with my husband. Our retirement vacation. Besides, I am also curious about why the Supreme wanted to go to another world and why my husband wanted to help him and chased him to the other side." The queen said.

"Wait, Mother, If you go, then the Phoenix Race would be chaotic," Ellen exclaimed.

"Don't worry. If this gentleman could open the portal again, it would be considered an honor if I go with him. So, you don't need to worry about that. You still have support from the elders. That's why I believe you can do it." Stina smiled.

"But-"

"Ellen… I have ruled the race for a few thousand years, it is time for me to retire from my position. Your mother is tired, so please… I am sure that one day if you have someone you loved so dearly, you will understand me."

"..."

"Besides, I will still be here until the portal is open. So, don't worry about it." Stina said as she turned back to Alex. "Still, if you are planning to get the crystal, you need to take it after the trial. After all, this is the rule for all races. I hope you can complete the trial."

"Of course." Alex nodded.
