Gacha Sovereign

"Eh?!" Song Hun looked behind as he was the last person to enter.

"What is it? Where is Alexander Sirius? He should be behind you, right?!" Davi asked while glancing on his back, not finding a single person.

"Yes. He should be right behind us…" Song Hun nodded.

"Don't tell me…" Elizabeth suddenly gasped as she exclaimed with a shocked expression. "Don't tell me… He is betraying us? Does he want to trap us here while he takes over the world by using the monsters? And everything turns out to be his scheme…"

"!!!" The group was startled, but Licht suddenly said, "I think that is not the case."

He didn't know there was a place like this under the Ancient Ruin due to the long stay underwater, so it certainly surprised him. Because of that, he became even more vigilant than he had ever been. As a result, he kept a close look on the Spatial Gate.

"I saw the Spatial Gate is broken. As you might already know, I have an 8-Star Martial Saint with Space Element in my sect, and I have certainly seen her ability. The Spatial Gate itself can be cut or destroyed as long as you know its weakness. And what I saw earlier was exactly that." Licht corrected them, trying to calm them down.

"Then are you saying there is a monster outside that attacks him? And it only happened as soon as I came in?" Song Hun frowned.

"Or the monster might have been hiding from us this whole time and planned to attack him? Either case, that monster is surely intelligent." Licht's face became pale. "We need to help him."

"But how?!" Elizabeth gulped down.

"I don't know." Licht shook his head. "I believe we need a Space Element master to cross the barrier. Unfortunately, I have sent Elder Aileen to another place… And there is no way we can cross this barrier without her or Alexander."

"…" The group became pale. On one hand, it would be dangerous to this world if Alex died because of that sudden attack. On the other hand, they were afraid their influence got attacked while they were absent.

Suddenly, Song Hun got another idea after scrambling all the information Alex gave earlier. "Seeing the way he talked… I think we have another solution."

The group immediately locked their eyes on him.

"We need to go to that pillar. He must have gone there since he said we could cooperate with the four kingdoms. With the timestamp and other things, I believe he just met them a few days ago. I don't know if we can do it, but it's better to try something." Song Hun clenched his fist.

"I think we should separate our force. Since we can safely assume that Alexander Sirius got attacked, we need a few people to wait here while the rest go to the tower."

"I will be staying." Licht made a decisive decision, followed by Song Hun. "Same for me."

"I will be staying too." To everyone's surprise, Davi also remained here. Little did they know that Davi loved to bet on Alex because of his ability. Back then, he was checkmated by him even though he was only a 2-Star Martial Saint. Now that he became a 6-Star, even a 10-Star couldn't easily kill him with that element of his.

"Then, four of us will be going to the tower to search for a way to escape from this place." Elizabeth nodded. Having another person to stay here would be detrimental, so she needed to cut the conversation and get going.

The rest nodded in agreement. They couldn't waste a single second on this, so it would be better to go with her.

"Let's go."

They then went their own way, hoping for Alex's well-being… Albeit the situation outside seemed to be a bit bad.

…

*Bam!*

It came too sudden to the point he didn't have the chance to react. Alex immediately stabilized his body and activated his Spirit Eyes, looking at that attack.

To his surprise, what he found was a human. He had white hair, a small nose and a gentle curving mouth. His attire was full of white that appeared to be a military uniform. Still, the most noticeable thing coming from him was his eyes. His eyes were golden, but what made it unique was the clock in his eyes.

There was a twelve hours clock. He never saw eyes like him and was purely shocked by that.

His Pure Fire rose and enveloped him.

'What is this green color in his body? And what are his eyes?' Alex frowned, assessing his situation. 'Still, a 10-Star Martial Saint huh… This is going to be hard. And with him attacking me, I can safely assume he is my enemy. And he should have made an appearance himself in the war… No, there should be no hidden influence in this world except Freedom Sect… Don't tell me…'

"You… You are from that world?" Alex immediately confirmed that the guy in front of him came from a world filled with beasts.

[Host… I believe he has one of the rarest elements in the world. The same as your Pure Fire or Special Space Element.]

Alex frowned and muttered. "Time Element…"

[Yes.]

When Alex was contemplating, Lin Xingzhi had another thought of this matter. In the Spirit World, she leaned back on her chair, pondering over this matter.

Suddenly, the butler, Korzan, appeared in the room. "Milady. I have informed the army to head there."

"Wait, Korzan… From what I see, his Time Element is far too low for a person at such a level. And those eyes… Where do I see it again…!!!" Lin Xingzhi tried hard thinking about this matter before a certain memory appeared in her mind. "Don't tell me…"

"Milady? I think this is very bad. Even if we need to break our rule, I believe—" Korzan stopped when he saw Lin Xingzhi's annoyed face. He heard her muttering, "Those eyes… Why would he appear…"

Seeing this, he decided to stop and waited for Lin Xingzhi to think this through.

Lin Xingzhi continued being like that before the memory of Alex appeared in her mind. She recalled that, and somehow it clicked with the current situation. She felt her body weak and pinched the bridge of her nose.

"Cancel it." Suddenly, Lin Xingzhi gave her an order.

"Eh?" Korzan acted as if he didn't hear it just now.

"We won't go there." Lin Xingzhi shook her head. Her face became pale.

"But Master…" Korzan stopped the moment he saw blood dripping down to the ground. Lin Xingzhi clenched her fist too hard to the point it bled. He knew there must be something behind this matter and chose to trust his Master and Lin Xingzhi. "I understand. I will have the spirits to standby for the time being."

Lin Xingzhi could only close her eyes. Whether their enemies from many worlds or this person that suddenly came to Alex, they had another big crisis in hand. And to ensure Alex could grow to solve that problem…. She needed to watch this. Even though she realized that the person wouldn't kill him, it still pained her to the point blood flowed out of her mouth.

…

Alex, of course, didn't know this matter. He simply stared at the person in front of him, wondering why he didn't continue his attack.

In that case, he decided to ask first. "Who are you?"

"Who I am is not important. What is important is your strength. I was planning to test your strength, but it seems you are too weak for me right now," said the mysterious man.

'Why he attacks me? And there should be another reason why he targets me… Is he really coming from that world?' Alex glanced at the portal.

"Hoh… To think you dare to take your eyes off from your opponent." The mysterious man leaped toward him.

Alex used this chance to attack him with both weapons three times.

"Heaven Light Slash!"

The mysterious man looked at these six attacks with an amazed expression. He smiled and drew his sword again, but he suddenly disappeared as if he went through Alex's body.

"!!!" Alex opened his eyes wide. Not only was he surprised as to why that person disappeared, but he also felt the pain coming from three spots on his body. His body seemed to react even slower because the blood just flowed out of the wounds.

'What?!' Alex just got a shock in his life. Despite having activated his Spirit Eyes, he couldn't see through the attacks. 'What just happened?'

Even the two weapons also didn't know what happened, so they didn't erect a barrier. The same to Sherry and the others inside his body.

Their flames rose in his body, but Alex stopped them. He knew Sherry wanted to go out. However, he certainly couldn't let Sherry go out because the enemy might target her instead.

'Master!!' Sherry wailed as if begging him to let her out.

'Stay in my body for the time being. Before I know what just happened, I won't let you out.' Alex answered while glaring at the mysterious man.

"Why are you targeting me?" Alex gritted his teeth. "Looking at how you dress and the information about the world filled with monsters… The two of you are not matched. Who are you?"

"Heh. That's right. I am not from that world."

"We don't have any grudges. So, why are you trying to kill me?" Alex was lying in the second half. Even though the mysterious person attacked him, he didn't carry a single trace of killing intent as if he had another intention of doing this.

That was why before he summoned his Spirits to help him, he asked the system. 'Do you know anything about this?'

[I don't know anything about him… Seeing he is only a 10-Star Martial Saint, he isn't powerful enough for me to know his name.]

'…I will go all out, I guess.' Alex took a deep breath and summoned Leoz and Jeanne by taking out their cards behind his back.

Seeing this, the mysterious person leaped again toward Alex without answering his question.

Alex gritted his teeth and activated his Spirit Crown. He then proceeded to use his Phoenix Aura and his barrier to block this attack. At the very least, he should be able to know what happened with his Spirit Eyes.

"Heh… Paradox Slash." The mysterious person attacked him with many slashes at the same time to the point it was far more than Alex could use with his Triple Draws. And those slashes struck the barrier and destroyed it before making its way toward Alex's chest.

*Zap!*

"Gah!" Alex spat blood. He somehow managed to stop the attack with both weapons because he knew where the strikes were going due to his barrier buying the precious split second. However, the sword still managed to create a swallow wound on his chest.

It was at this time, the two spirits appeared as they were going to make a sneak attack.

"How dare you?!" The two waved their weapons toward this person.

"Delayed Slash." The mysterious guy waved his sword a little, but magically, the slash went through his back, pushing Leoz's and Jeanne's swords away.

"What?!" The two spirits were obviously shocked by such a thing.

They didn't know what was going on. Nonetheless, their instinct told them this guy is dangerous.

"True Spirit Body!"

"Oh?!" The mysterious guy glanced on his back.

"Didn't you say not to take your eyes off your opponent?" Alex took this chance and struck him. "Heaven Light Slash!"

The mysterious guy still managed to block Alex's attack, but that slight movement wasn't enough to kill the force behind the attack, resulting in him getting blown away.

Alex knew how dangerous this person was and immediately summoned every single UR spirit in his way.

"Master (Alex)!" They opened their eyes wide. They never thought Alex would be injured like this.

"Haha… Now I can see your identity." The mysterious guy laughed. "Still, I will see whether you are qualified or not… And luckily, I have brought my friends too."

Just like that, five people fully covered in black appeared behind him. "Now… Let's see what you got."
