Gacha Sovereign

"Alicia."

As soon as her name was called, Alicia got a reaction because this voice resembled the most important person in her life.

Alex could see that the array slowly disappeared as if she reacted to his call, and without a doubt, the woman was Alicia.

Without wasting a single second, Alex appeared before her.

"Husband." Alicia gradually looked up as her appearance slowly crumbled, revealing her true look.

Tears started to swell up in the corner of their eyes before they remembered there was another person beside them.

The same as her, her devil appearance suddenly disappeared, showing her long blue hair and beautiful face.

"Ilumi greets Master. It's my honor to see you, Master." The woman called Ilumi kneeled on one knee. Her voice was cold and aloof, but he could sense the happiness behind it.

"What are you doing here?" Alex nodded to her and asked.

Alicia thought for a moment and sighed. "Let's go out of this place first."

"Alright." Alex agreed, and the group went deeper inside the forest. He took out Nelson's card and said, "Nelson, I am going to recall you back since I have found Alicia."

"Understood."

Alex summoned him again because his ability might be needed in whatever she wanted to say to him.

"There is a town near this forest. We are staying there for a while, so I guess we can go there."

"In that case, we can sneak in with my Spatial Gate," Alex suggested.

Alicia and Ilumi exchanged looks before nodding to his suggestion. They entered the Spatial Gate and went toward the town.

Alex could see the bustling town, but then he realized it was not like the town he had ever visited. Despite having so many devils inside, it was quiet. Not a single devil was talking. The best they could do was whispering.

"Why are they…" Alex frowned, glancing at Alicia.

"I have just come back from this place, and according to them, they can only talk inside a building. It's a weird custom, but it's a special one in this town." Nelson was the first to answer.

"How long since you first arrived at this place?" Alicia was a bit surprised and asked.

"A few minutes?" Nelson tilted his head.

"As expected from Nelson, I have heard of your reputation, but to think to this extent…" Alicia smiled, fully impressed by Nelson's ability.

"Thank you for your praise, Lady Alicia." Nelson bowed politely.

"Ah, there should be an inn in this direction. We are staying in the furthest room on the third floor." Alicia noticed the slight movement and hurriedly informed Alex.

He nodded and led them carefully as to not get caught by someone.

Alex also decided to look around the town with his Spirit Eyes to see whether they had strong people and noticed many Martial Monarchs and Martial Saints around.

He even became more careful at this point and finally arrived after walking for about thirty minutes due to the street being too full.

Alicia helped Alex in creating the Sound Insulation Array before looking at Alex with teary eyes.

"It's been so long…" Alicia still tried to put her smile even though her eyes couldn't lie.

Alex immediately hugged her tightly, not wanting to let it go. They had separated for more than a decade. Although Alicia had been talking to him from time to time through the system, it was still a rare occasion. The longing they felt this whole time was released simultaneously.

Nelson and Ilumi decided to walk a bit further to give them a room.

Alex didn't mind the smell of blood and let it stick to his clothes because Alicia just was lying down in a pool of blood a moment ago. He didn't mind the saltiness of her tears. Everything just couldn't beat the bitterness they endured until they finally met again.

It continued for several minutes before Alicia gradually pushed him away and looked to the side. "Let me change my clothes first."

Alex also decided the same because the blood also stuck on his clothes.

"Still, I never think I would meet you in that situation. I almost blew up." Alex sighed. "Never mind, I should have done this first."

Alex sent an invitation to Alicia, and she accepted it right away. She changed to a long sleeve white shirt and knee-length blue skirt that seemed to complement her light blue hair very well.

He couldn't help but touch her hair because of this and looked a bit sad.

"Do you remember that I have become a Spirit now?" Alicia gently stroked her hair and looked at it. "This is the result of it. It's fine. I pretty like the color as well, and if you don't like it, I can dye it."

"It's fine. As long as you like it, I don't really mind." Alex smiled and hugged her from behind.

Alicia nodded and whispered something to him. "Ahem, I have seen your memory as well… And if you want, I can use my illusion array to transform this place into something you want. Then, I can also change my clothes to… What do you say again? Cosplay?"

"Pfft." Alex almost burst out laughing. "Never mind about that."

"But you are tempted; I can feel it." Alicia made a smug smile.

Alex didn't answer her nor deny it. He changed the topic instead. "Anyway, what were you doing earlier?"

"It's bait, but let's call the two first." Alicia smiled before looking at another room where Nelson and Ilumi waited for them.

"I am sorry for making you two wait." Alex nodded and found that the two had prepared a table and four chairs for the discussion. He stretched his hand as they sat down on their own chairs.

Ilumi took out a map from her Space Ring and started explaining the condition. "This is the map of this world. There are three big continents in this world, and the three have the same amount of strength. In other words, there are one Rank 7 God, two Rank 8 God, seven Rank 9 God, and fifty Rank 10 God in this continent alone."

"Hmm… That is quite a large number." Alex furrowed his eyebrows. "By the way, what is the strength of Eulja?"

Ilumi didn't answer him. Instead, she looked at Alicia first.

"Although we both are Divine Worlds, there is a tier as well. In this world, three Rank 7 Gods are leading it. This is the lowest one you can get to be considered as Divine World. If I am not wrong, the world you lived in until now is considered as a middle grade because it had Rank 4 God assume the command. And the last one is the high grade because it has Rank 2 God in command."

Alex thought for a moment and asked. "But if I am not wrong, Eulja has…"

"Yeah. It's considered high grade as well, but they are a special one because we have a Rank 1 God protection. Those who get the protection of a God King will surely become prosperous. Back then, Eulja had you and Time God, so it was respected and feared by many.

"After all, if two Rank 1 Gods attack a high-grade Divine World, they will annihilate them, and no one would think it's weird. Well, this is more to the history of Eulja, so I think you should ask "her" for this." Alicia decided to stop.

Alex looked down, falling into deep thought. "I understand. Let's go back to the topic then. With all these Gods protecting this continent, I doubt we can settle this easily, right?"

"Yeah. That's why I was pretending to be an injured woman, precisely in a half-dead state. The Green Devil Poison Tribe is searching for a body to test their poison, so I am going there to sneak around their base.

"They will surely help me and bring me back. At that time, I can sneak attack them and possibly kill their Gods. The problem will be the remaining Green Devil Tribe and their record. If they are not eliminated, the poison supplied by this tribe won't ever end.

"I have made my preparation though, because I heard you were going to return."

Ilumi stared at her for a moment and felt the need to address the reason, so she said, "Lady Alicia was a bit impatient because of it and took this risk. If possible, I would like Master to stop her right now."

"Ilumi!" Alicia slammed the table and glared at her. She didn't want Alex to know about this because he would be angry.

And she was right, Alex narrowed his eyes, fuming in anger. "If myself is the one harming you, I think it's better to stay in that world for another few years…"

"Wait, Alex! Let me explain…"

"I know. You don't need to." Alex shook his head. "I don't want someone to risk their lives just because of the time that can be extended, especially my own wife."

He looked down and clenched her fists until it bled. He was also mad at himself.

Alicia bit her lips and placed her hand on Alex's. "I am sorry. I forgot that you prioritize us more than time. I was too excited to meet you…"

"I apologize too." Alex shook his head and let out a long sigh. He looked at Ilumi with a smile. "Thank you for telling me."

"You're welcome. I know that I can't control my queen, so I could only rely on Master." Ilumi nodded.

"Now that you mention it, I think there is someone who wants to meet you!" Alex decided to change the topic again and summoned Vera.

Just like how she met Alex for the first time, she walked toward Alicia and kneeled on one knee. "Vera Fabotelli greets Your Highness, Ice Phoenix Queen Spirit."

Alicia immediately helped her up and smiled. "Ice Phoenix Tribe has been helping me this whole time. I am indebted to them. I always want to meet you because I have so many things to learn from you."

"It's my honor to teach the queen as well as Master's wife." Vera smiled.

"Can I call you Vera? You can call me Alicia too. Instead of having a formal relationship like this, I would like us to become a sister instead as people from the same tribe." Alicia smiled.

"U… I understand." Vera nodded awkwardly before she looked away. "But it's not like I want to do it, alright? I just think it's the best choice because you are Master's wife."

"Here it comes! Lady Vera won't say something like that if she doesn't like the person!" Ilumi added.

"Ilumi! You brat! You dare to tease me now? Should I spank you again?!" Vera pouted—Face red.

"I am scared, my Lady. But I am under Lady Alicia right now, so I am afraid I can't offer you my butt again. Besides, I am currently stronger than you, Lady Vera." Ilumi grinned as if she had an evil plan in mind.

"Ugh! I can still ask that old hag to punish you. And when I gain my previous strength, I will beat you up!" Vera looked away.

Alex and Alicia smiled because this might be the first time they found that Vera, the former Ice Phoenix Queen, had this intimate relationship with someone in the tribe.

In fact, Alicia heard that she was actually more friendly than she could think, but she just never had a chance of meeting her in person. And seeing her like this only reinforced the truth even more.

Vera suddenly glanced at Alex and had an idea as she came to Alex. "Master… How about you ask Ilumi to come? She is like a child, and I think you will like to tease her. She only appears cold and aloof on the outside, but she will start sobbing like a child when you start spanking her."

Ilumi's face turned pale, and she looked at Alex while rising from her seat. "Master… You are not going to do that, right?"

"Fufu… I have been with Master for a decade while you are staying in Eulja this whole time."

Ilumi became even more scared, but Alex only chuckled and said, "Haha… You two are acting like sisters. I am glad that Alicia has been in the care of a tribe like this. Thank you."

The two suddenly fell silent, mesmerized by his words instead to the point they could only look away and scratch the back of their head embarrassedly.
