Godslayer's Legend

Chapter 33: Alexia Vladi (REWRITTEN)

Alexia Vladi, was a woman blessed from birth.

Looks, power, status, talent, she had it all. She was a child born with a platinum spoon.

Throughout her younger years, she rarely encountered major setbacks or problems. Such things were always taken care of before they could pose a threat to her.

However, she did not grow up like a spoiled brat. She learned at an early age that life was not always smooth sailing so she set out to experience the harshness of life before she could get used to the lackadaisical lifestyle she was living unknowingly before learning this.

She utilized the power of her family to gain the best resources for her growth, and willingly put herself in precarious situations to draw out more of her hidden potential and make herself stronger.

Studying to acquire more knowledge and become wiser was also part of her agenda too.

Without anyone's help, she amassed her own powerful forces and influence, making her name known across many universes.

Most of the wealth and influence she possessed was gained all by herself, enough to comfortably pay her family back what she received as a child tenfold.

Currently, she was facing the greatest setback in her life.

People would do anything to gain power and maintain that power alongside the influence that came with it.

Alexia happened to be one of the victims of someone's attempts to remain in power. She had searched for many ways to solve this issue and free herself from the clutches of the one who had ensnared her ever since she was but a baby to no avail.

When she finally found half the solution to the problem, she lost the one person who could be considered the other half.

Many years later, she discovered that this problem could be solved with the help of a certain child of prophecy who was born in a place far from where she called home.

Ignoring the warnings of her trusted subordinates, she personally set out to find this child and ended up discovering him, however, it was simply impossible for him to help her.

He was far too young and too weak to do so. This led her to make the decision to help him and kick start his speedy growth so that in the future, he would help her in return.

She had watched him secretly and discovered something about him that he probably didn't know about himself.

After she was sure she had gathered the required tools, she decided to show herself to him and give him the tools she prepared to help him increase his power fast enough so he could help her before it was too late.

◇ ◇ ◇

'That was the plan, so why am I currently touring Aeturn's castle town with him in tow?'

Alexia face palmed as she thought about how her original plan went out the window the moment she met him.

'Two years should be a long time for a child like him, right? I didn't expect him to realize I was the one who was watching him at that time.

But still, looking at him closely, besides the weird energy that's fighting his divinity for dominance in his body, he has all the necessary requirements to solve my current predicament.

I'm guessing he has been exposed to the law of destruction's power via his mother so his 'Annihilation' is beginning to awaken. If his energy flow resumes, I'm sure he would be able to tap into its power.

He also has the time affinity too, perhaps because his grandfather was a candidate.'

Unbeknownst to the young prince, Alexia had scanned his body multiple times, figured out his affinities, noticed his dormant bloodline ability, and even the reason he was unable to use his energy.

All these were discovered in only a few minutes of meeting and being dragged around by him.

'I think I finally understand how that girl he always drags around feels. Still, it has been a while since I last played around like this, might as well enjoy it.'

She then decided to let Arthur take her to the major pleasure spots in Aeturn's castle town that had popped up since the last time she was here.

They spent a few hours doing this before finally going over to a creamery/restaurant and ordering almost everything on the menu.

Many other customers were present in the restaurant section so the duo took a table on the terrace. Although Arthur could have gotten a private room, he didn't do so for various reasons.

"So Alexia, mind telling me why you came to meet me in the first place?"

"Huh?"

Alexia let out a surprised voice, dropping her vanilla-filled spoon in the process. She looked up at Arthur only to see he was covering his mouth in an attempt to hold back his laughter.

"I...hahaha...was only..hahahah!!"

In the end, the boy couldn't hold it any longer and burst out laughing while pointing at her face. Alexia stared at him weirdly for a moment before hurriedly creating a mirror with glass magic and realizing the reason why.

"You little...!"

She used a serviette provided and cleaned off the ice cream that splashed on her face when she dropped her spoon in surprise.

"You can't blame me, it looked like you had 'that' on your face."

"What is wrong with the ten-year-olds of this generation?"

"This thing called the internet happened. It got enhanced by magic and is like a dozen times faster than its original speed when it was created by humans."

Alexia sighed as she stared at the laughing prince in front of her who suddenly stopped laughing and stared with a serene gaze.

"You reacted suspiciously to my earlier question, you also knew my age without me telling you.

I kinda felt it was weird when you approached me out of all the other people in the park, but it's even more so now."

The waiter brought the juice they had ordered earlier and Alexia took a sip out of it before replying to him.

"I know I'm not really the best actor but to think a ten-year-old could see through me. I'm ashamed."

She placed a new order for a different drink for both herself and Arthur. After the waiter left, she looked at Arthur with a serious face as she spoke.

"Allow me to introduce myself again. My name is Alexia Vladi. I'm royalty just like you Arthur, just from another universe you don't know about."

"So Alexia, why exactly did you come to meet me in the first place?"

Alexia flicked her finger and a black bag appeared on the table. She then tapped the top of the bag as she replied.

"I was quite close to someone who used to live here in Aeturn."

While Arthur was confused as to how that answered his question, he didn't ask that and instead asked something else.

"Who?"

"The previous king."

The moment she said that, there was obvious hostility directed towards her from various sections of the restaurant. Ignoring all of these, she whispered to a slightly frowning Arthur.

"He once told me over drinks that he left something for his descendants in a certain realm called Varona.

However, he mentioned that I advise whichever of his descendants I was telling about this, to go to the academy and go to Varona during the time when the academy sends the students on expeditions to various realms."

Hearing her words, Arthur realized the misunderstanding he had and let out a small laugh. He then waved his hands in the air and all the hostile gazes on Alexia disappeared.

"How long ago were you here? I advise you to brush up on your history so you don't cause such misunderstandings again."

He ignored Alexia's dumbfounded look and continued speaking.

"So where are you from, Miss Alexia?"

"Huh? Why so polite all of a sudden, you tryna hit on me?"

"Although I have no idea how you came to that conclusion, I don't exactly have the hobby of hitting on women older than my mother."

Alexia almost-, no she definitely choked on her drink when Arthur said that, quickly putting down the glass she shouted towards Arthur.

"Are you saying I'm an old hag?!"

"Your words, not mine. Besides if you knew the previous king, you're definitely older than my mom.

She wasn't born when that guy was still ruling after all."

It was then Alexia realized she'd dug a hole for herself, coughing awkwardly, she decided to blatantly change the topic.

She pushed the bag on the table towards Arthur who opened it and was shocked at its contents.

Inside it was a light blue crystal. There were other things but this caught his attention the most.

Anyone with basic knowledge about universal laws would have realized it was a law crystal. A crystal that held the knowledge of a law.

Utilizing this crystal imparted this law knowledge to the one utilizing the crystal and allowed them to comprehend the law held within.

Comprehending said law gave one an authority over that law. Depending on affinity, one could gain a unique authority related to that law.

This was something that beings from the transcendent realm and above needed to advance in realm of existence. Similar to the realms of existence, laws also had ranks.

They were the basic, low, mid, high, and monarch ranks.

Starting from the transcendent realm, one needed to possess an authority to advance to the next realm. By having a certain level of comprehension (Mostly 50%) in a law of a certain rank granted one the equivalent rank of authority.

Demigod realm existences had basic rank authorities, low-tier deity realm existences had low-rank laws, and so on and so forth.

Also, it was impossible to skip ranks in comprehending laws. One could not comprehend a low-rank law without completely comprehending the basic rank first.

There was also no limit on the number of laws that could be comprehended as there were almost an uncountable number of laws.

Whether one made significant process in that law, depended on their affinity with it.

Like the laws they held, the crystals also had ranks. The one in the bag was only a basic rank crystal with the knowledge of the basic rank law of time, however, it was very valuable. Especially to transcendents.

"Law crystals are valuable stuff you know?"

"It's just a basic rank, it's of low importance to me. Take it as a gift from me to you."

"A gift? I can't use this, you know? Even if I could use my energy, I would not be able to use it until I'm a transcendent."

Hearing Arthur's words, Alexia sighed in exasperation before speaking.

"As I thought, you didn't know. Most likely the result of your failed magic blooming."

'Thankfully, Kelly told me about this.'

Ignoring Arthur's pained look, she asked a question.

"Arthur, what race are you?"

"Huh? I'm obviously a half-devil, half-god."

His reply, however, was not the one she wished to hear. She looked at him with a pitiful gaze as she dropped her spoon and rested both hands on the table before speaking.

"Arthur, you aren't a Halfling. You are of a totally different race from both your parents."

"How is that even possible?"

"I honestly have no idea. It's a question you should ask the Akashic record or something. Anyways, it doesn't change the fact that you're from a different race."

Arthur looked at her with a skeptical gaze. He took a sip from his juice before asking.

"So, what race am I?"

"I would tell you if I could. However, I don't. You're the one who's supposed to know what race you are instinctively, that is how it is for all progenitors."

"You're saying that I'm a 'progenitor'?

"Yes. You are the first of your race, a progenitor."

Arthur sighed and shook his head. What he was being told was simply too absurd.

He had read up on the ridiculous 'broken' existences known as progenitors in the royal library's restricted section.

It was why he could not understand how he was one of them. If not for the completely serious look on Alexia's face, he might have thought she was pranking him."

"I know you're serious but I don't buy it."

"Of course, you don't."

Alexia responded, understanding how absurd what she was saying must have sounded to the ten-year-old.

"The reason I know you are one and the reason I gave you the law crystal, is simply because I have met other progenitors before.

You all emit the same aura, and have an absurd influence on the law of causality."

As Alexia spoke, her blue eyes glowed slightly as she gazed directly into Arthur's black eyes. Arthur's response, however, made Alexia chuckle a bit.

"So you say I can influence causality?

That son of a bitch law?"

"Yeah, the son of a bitch law."
