GACHA SOVEREIGN

100 Bawon Fortress 9

"Firia!"

After seeing this scene, Alex felt the same feeling when he watched Alicia on the brink of death back in the dungeon. Firia already become an irreplaceable person in Alex's life. It took a really long time for him to realize that. Her existence was already imprinted on his heart. But why was the time he realized this was the time where they are on the brink of death? He started to regret all of this. If only, he accepted them before all of this, what would happen? But he didn't have time to think all of this. He really didn't have time to regret all of his decision. His top priority now is…

Because he attacked Firia. He didn't have any time to react to Alex's attack. Alex spear immediately pierced his head, thus killing him on the spot.

Firia fell down with her pale face. Alicia held her in pain. She looked at Alex who was approaching them, she smiled while in tears. There would be hope if Alex come "Alex"

But sadly, her smile becomes stiff. She let Firia down and immediately ran toward him. Alex was surprised why she suddenly did that. 'maybe she felt danger?' he thought. But when Alicia reached him, she didn't stop and immediately went toward his back.

The assassin that almost killed by Alex already can't use his hands. But he grabbed another dagger with his mouth. The dagger's blade seems to be coated by some kind of liquid. In this case, this liquid would be a poison. He silently went toward Alex. Even though Alex already crippled his two hands. He still has his legs. He proud of his speed, and he can use his mouth to hold a dagger like this.

Alex felt something amiss when Alicia suddenly went toward his back. He turned his head and saw her…

"Stab"

The dagger pierced Alicia, the assassin was startled when Alicia suddenly got between them. His initial target was Alex. Their mission already failed since Alex already killed two of them and crippled him. That's why at least he would bring Alex down with him. Since it was their original mission. But never in his thought that Princess Alicia suddenly got between them and shielded him from this 'poisonous' dagger.

"Alicia!"

Alex immediately went toward her and kicked the assassin. He held her tightly.

"Look at Firia first, her injuries were worse than me" After she said that, she passed out

Alex didn't say anything, he carries her up. He then moved toward Firia and placed Alicia down beside her. Alex took out all of the Restoration Pill and shoved them to their mouths. Alicia and Firia wounds closed up at a visible rate. Firia pale's face also started to regain some color.

After noticing she is okay. Alicia…Firia…recalling what happened, Alex went insane. Every mana in his body flared up, all the fire in his body started gushing out.

"Ahhh!"

Alex went berserk and his fire also went berserk, his fire got outside, it enveloped his surroundings with flame, the forest started burning, the ground started to melt, but there is no speck of hotness to Alicia and the rest. The 'Alex' now only fight with his instinct. The assassin was shocked by this. The flame also engulfed him and burned him to death. Because of his berserk, the power from the fire was multiple times over.

On the contrary, Sherry felt something in Alex. She felt his sadness, disappointment on himself, anger, and much more.

"Wuu"

She let out her flame too. Sherry's pink flame was instantly engulfed by Alex's flame. But even her flame was swallowed by his flame. There is still her emotion, bond, and feeling within it. It seeped into Alex.

Suddenly, a circle appeared both in Sherry's forehead and Alex's forehead. In the middle of the circle, there is a fox head pattern. The circle symbolizing their connection, bond, emotion, feeling, and existence. The circle went inside her head. At the same time, the circle also went inside his head. But it didn't stop there, on his back, inside his clothes. A mark suddenly appeared. A mark becomes two, two become four, and so on. After a while, it stopped, and a fox tattoo was completed on his back.

The mark suddenly shining brightly after it completed. It calming down Alex. Sherry poured all her mana to calm Alex down. Alex's rampaging fire started to slow down…slow down, before finally stopped. Alex slowly gained consciousness. After he regained his consciousness, Sherry finally relieved. She walked to Alex.

"Wuu (I'm glad you are back, Master)" After she said that, she fell down, unconscious. She started shrinking. From her original one meter height become only forty-centimeter height.

Alex immediately checked her condition. Sherry is fine for now, she only exhausted all of her mana, he was confused with the shrinking but at least her condition was stable. He can't afford any time for that kind of thought for now.

"Thank you, Sherry"

After that blazing fire from Alex disappeared. Rain suddenly started pouring down and started to put out the remaining fire that burning the trees. Alex didn't care about it and immediately went toward the useless assassin. Sherry is fine, Firia also stabilized. And the problem is…

"Haha" The assassin laughed happily, unlike usual people who were in their death door. This assassin instead feeling very happy.

"Where is the antidote?" Alex said in a cold tone.

"Hehe… I really like your expression just now" the assassin feeling very joyful looking at Alex's expression. There is one word to describe this guy. 'Sicko'

"Puah!" He spurted blood. Alex kicked him in his abdomen, "Give me the antidote!"

"Haha, We specially prepared that poison for you but I never thought that the princess would sacrifice herself for y- Puah"

Alex kicked him again. "Give me the antidote now"

"Since you loved her that much. I will give you the answer. There is no antidote. This is the legendary poison, its name is Green Devil Poison. Even after a few millenniums passed there is no antidote behind this poison. It was said that this poison can even kill a god. Haha… the only outcome after inflicted by this poison is death. So say goodbye to your lovely princess. Cough cough"

Alex can't stand this guy no more. There would be no answer will he get from this man's mouth. He raised his sword.

"Wait. I know you will kill me. But I will tell you who was the mastermind behind this… who was the one actually sent us out…"

"the one who sent us out is the Hero from Zircodina Kingdom. Haha… He wanted to kill you very much. Our top priority was to kill you, we know you are abnormal, so we specially prepared that poison for you. But never I thought she really protected you. Oh right, the Hero wanted to ruin her personally. But I think, I already ruined her on his behalf. Haha..."

He decided to give him the information after seeing that 'scene'. He knew Alex was abnormal but after seeing that scene, he realized that he underestimated him, Alex was a monster. Thus he thought. Since he was going to die anyway, how about giving all of the information?. The Monster from Acacia vs The Hero from Zircodina. Ain't that wonderful? Why he accepted the job? Money? No, He accepted the job because he wanted to see the humans fighting each other. With one dead led to another and another one and so on. He wanted to see the world in chaos. With Alex as the center, if he killed him. Zircodina would be attacked by Acacia Kingdom. If Zircodina destroyed and Acacia wounded. The Demon will win the war between the Holy Kingdom. And the world will turn to chaos.

Alex kicked him again. "This is your last chance, give me the antidote"

"Like I said, there is no antidote for that poison. It was useless to ask m-"

"You are mad! " Alex roared as he killed him. There will be no answer for his mouth anyway.

"Alexander"

A shout from the rear. Alex looked toward it. He found Leyfon and Andreas flying to him. After the fire in his body engulfed and started burning the forest. Leyfon and Andreas noticed this disturbance and went to check it. They were surprised to see Alex standing in the middle of that. They found Alicia, Firia, and Sherry collapsed on the ground along with four corpses.

Alex immediately went toward Leyfon desperately. "Sir Leyfon. Please help Alicia"

"What…what happened?"

"Alright alright. I will check her immediately. Andreas, try to check the other"

Leyfon looked at Alicia. With blood on her clothes. He immediately noticed the stab wound. But the stab wound itself already closed with the pill. Her condition at least already stable.

"She was fine for the moment"

"She was inflicted by poison. From the assassin mouth, it was Green Devil Poison"

"Green Devil Poison?" Leyfon perplexed. "I think I heard them somewhere…"

Soon he remembered. He was flustered "Green Devil Poison!"

"Sir Leyfon. You know the poison? Please help her if you know"

"Andreas. Change of plan. We will bring them to the capital immediately" Leyfon was full of sweat.

"What happened Father?"

"Shut up. And immediately go"

"Y-yes"

"Sir Leyfon. What happened?" Alex asked him desperately. Leyfon was the current hope for him.

Leyfon didn't have any choice he suddenly punched Alex in the abdomen and knocked him unconscious. Alex state of mind is in mess, it is better to knock him out first. Leyfon grabbed Alicia and Alex while Andreas grabbed Firia and Sherry. They flew toward the capital city.

As soon as they reached the capital. They immediately let all of the doctors checked their condition, especially Alicia's condition.

…

The king and his retainers were still in their meeting when suddenly…

"Bang!"

"Your Majesty. Emergency… Princess Alicia… Princess Alicia…"

Before he finished his words. The king immediately stood up "The meeting finished now"

All of his retainers immediately left the palace. Princess Alicia was always his soft spot. They already knew about it. Now there was an emergency about her, the result was obvious. They immediately left this place, they didn't want to suffer his wrath at the moment.

"What happened to my niece?"

"She… According to the doctor. She was poisoned"

"What! Immediately led me to her"

The king immediately went to her. There are Alex, Firia, Sherry, and Alicia lying on bed. Leyfon and Andreas watching on the side. The dean also called to here. The king looked at all the doctors present.

"How is her condition? Tell me now!"

One of the doctors said "Her condition was stabilized for now. Please calm down first Your Majesty. The rest only exhausted, rest for a while they will wake up"

The king finally relieved when the doctor said her condition was stable.

Suddenly the Dean walked to him and said with a bitter tone. "She was poisoned. According to Leyfon. Alex said she was poisoned by the legendary Green Devil Poison. So we tried to confirm her condition as that poison as the base. Unfortunately, from the symptom, it is positive. Princess Alicia got poisoned by Green Devil Poison"

"What did you say! You say 'Green Devil Poison'?" his leg went limp. He fell down.

"Your Majesty"

"Your Majesty"

The others trying to help the king. The dean continued "Your Majesty. I have stumbled upon an ancient book in our library. There is actually one record that the one who got inflicted by Green Devil Poison got cured."

"What? What is the cure? Tell me, I will immediately move all the power I had to search it"

The dean bitterly shook his head. "The record was from five thousand years ago"

"You mean…"

"Yes, the one who cured it was the ascender"

The king fell down once again. "Who…who the one that poisoned her?"

"I will explain what I saw back then Your Majesty" Leyfon step forward. "I didn't get much time before. After Alex said about Green Devil Poison. I immediately flew to here. So I will give you a report about what I saw in that short moment. First, according to the number of corpses, there are four assassins. All of them are rank 7 assassins. They seem to engaged for quite a while. Ultimately, All of them died. I suspected that Alex or Sherry was the one who killed them. That's all. For now, we don't know who sent them"

"Investigate immediately"

"Ha!"
