GACHA SOVEREIGN

"By the way, Father. Can I postpone using this room first?" Alex asked.

"Why?" The Time God was a bit perplexed.

"When I use the room you gave in Encore, I mainly used it to adjust my strength from normal techniques to Divine Techniques and I don't still see any reason to use it other than increasing my strength."

"I see. However, you should know that this dimension is more advanced than the one I built there. Ten years here is one day outside instead of one year."

"I understand. There might be something in the future that requires me to use this room, so I would be relying on this dimension." Alex nodded with a serious expression.

"As expected, you are the same careful person. Anyway, I won't tell you when you can use this room. If you want it, just ask my beloved daughter for the key and come here." The Time God nodded.

"I understand. That's right. I wonder if Father knows anything about the beast?"

"I don't know and I won't say something about it too other than be careful."

Alex closed his eyes, a bit disappointed.

"Just believe what you are doing. Results will follow."

"Yes, I will do my best."

"I have one piece of advice for you." He smiled.

"What is it?"

"It's this…" The Time God suddenly punched him on the cheek, blowing him away. "This is my advice."

Alex was surprised and stabilized his position. He stared at the Time God with a perplexed face. "What are you doing?"

"It's lucky that I can touch you because of your Spirit Crown. As I said earlier, I don't like harem, but it seems that you have so many girls already. In that case, my advice is obvious. You should hit yourself once with all of your strength because your wife will feel it far worse than it every time you get another one.

"However, it's still within my expectation. Just make sure that they lose that painful feeling in their heart when they see you get another woman. Because if it comes to this point, you are basically screwed. That's where everything doesn't matter anymore and your family is already beyond redemption."

Alex's heart felt heavy as he stared at the Time God for one minute before lowering his head.

"In that case, let's return to the others. They must be waiting for you." The Time God sighed and waved his hand, teleporting them back to where they came from.

"Father!" Lin Xingzhi leaped toward him and hugged him.

"Haha, you are still my baby." The Time God laughed while hugging her back. "You have grown up just like your mother. She always made me smile no matter how hard I was hit by reality. Keep doing what you like. Your Father will seriously go this time."

"Yes. Thank you for everything, Father. I love you." Lin Xingzhi smiled while crying.

"Actually, I am wondering what you are going to do…"

"I don't have any plan currently since I am yet to reach Rank 6 God. After that, I will begin my training again to control the Spirit Crown. As for when I am Rank 5 God, I will fully master the Spirit Crown and go to the Dungeon God's place." Alex explained.

"After that?"

"I am not sure." Alex shook his head.

"Hmm, I don't know about your situation, so I can't really say anything. I only want to say something about the inheritances you have gotten."

"The inheritances? The golden lightning?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

"I don't know, but I am telling you that in the past, the Spirit God once got all those knowledge after getting stranded in time. I mean, Time Disturbance. Although he got help from me, he learned something about his own ancestors."

"Ancestors?" Alex widened his eyes.

"Although I said ancestors, their real identity remained the same… They were Alexander Sirius."

"What?!" Alex drew a gasp as he blinked his eyes a few times. "Don't tell me…"

"Yes. They were your past lives. From what I know, he saw around fifty of past reincarnations and absorbed their knowledge. This was the reason why he appeared to have so much knowledge in that small brain."

"Then…" Alex clenched his teeth. "I was like 52nd reincarnation?"

"No. I don't know how long the cycle of reincarnation is, but it's proof that you live in the past. However, you must have realized that some of your knowledge is very outdated, not usable anymore in the present. Hence, I want to let you know that you should confront the knowledge by yourself. You might find something amazing. Of course, I can't guarantee it."

"Alright. I will do my best." Alex nodded with a serious expression.

"And since you don't have a plan right now, I will give you one more mission. This is not an immediate mission, so you can go anywhere you like. Remember when I talked about another form of spirit?" The Time God asked Alex.

Alex nodded.

"The spirit that I want you to get is Life and Death Spirit."

"What?!" This time, Lin Xingzhi was the one who got surprised. "Father, you…"

"Like I said, I won't say anything about the future, but it doesn't mean I will stay my mouth shut if I can help you increase the chance to fight the beast."

"What is Life and Death Spirit?" Alex tilted his head in confusion.

"Life and Death Spirit is a pair of spirits that helped one of the God King, Life and Death God in the past. He could understand the meaning of life and death, including reviving someone. There are many complex contracts for that and I am not sure myself, but it's certainly a powerful spirit.

"The Life Spirit is similar to my Nature Element, but it can help one evolve to a stronger being. Of course, the spirit can only do it once every one thousand years, but that powerful spirit is indeed terrifying. Just imagine giving birth to Rank 2 God every one thousand years.

"As for the Death Spirit, it's the epitome of chaos. It's disturbing, but it can resurrect the deaths for the time being. Or you can say, prevent their deaths for a period of time. I am not sure how long it is, but I think you will have at least a few minutes. Of course, this can only be used every one thousand years.

"I don't have a clear grasp about the Life and Death God, so I couldn't explain it to you that much." Lin Xingzhi shook her head in disappointment.

Alex nodded. "That's enough. Thank you."

"I will fill you in." The Time God smiled. "First of all, It's not Life and Death God, but Goddess. According to her, she has the control over the soul and energy. Obviously, the Death Spirit takes the soul to increase her power while the Life Spirit grants her energy to do anything beyond her means."

"Why do you want me to make a contract with those two Spirits?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

"The Life Spirit can grant you enough power for your Spirit Crown or even make it stronger. The Death Spirit can control your soul. Don't you have a perfect Original Martial Art for that?" The Time God smiled.

"No!" Alex narrowed his eyes. "You don't mean to…"

"Yes. That alone is powerful, but that attack is nowhere near the strength you need to fight that beast. I want you to make a contract with the spirits to get the technique to slay the beast. However, I don't know about their requirement, so I can't really tell you when is the perfect time to meet them. As for the position, she gave where she passed away after reading about her own death."

"Reading her own death? Did she know about it?"

"Yes. She knew about you and such. Her death couldn't be avoided, so instead of struggling, she decided to seal herself and made everyone think she had died."

"What did you say?" Alex clenched his fists. "She hasn't died?"

"Yes. With my help, I created the second Time Box in the form of a coffin. That coffin allowed her to preserve her life until the right moment. You should meet her as soon as possible. I think she can help you increase your strength." The Time God smiled.

"Wait a minute, Father. You don't want to make her…" Lin Xingzhi narrowed her eyes.

"What are you thinking? You should know about my principle, right? There is no way I will let her become his wife. Besides, her condition is not suited to be his wife." The Time God shrugged. "You will believe me when you see her appearance. She is the most mysterious person in this universe, and only some God Kings have seen her real appearance. Besides, with her way of talking, I can't see her being his wife."

"In that case, it's fine. I don't like to see him being with someone that I barely know." Lin Xingzhi pouted.

"No, no. I am just surprised that you allow him to have these many wives."

"I have limited the number to ten. I won't accept it after that number or he needs to be prepared for eviction." She shrugged.

"What?! Ten?" The Time God widened his eyes and grabbed Alex's collar. He was fuming in anger when he heard about the real number. He thought it was only five or six, but it turned out he had underestimated him. "You, boy. Tell me again how many people have become your wives?"

"Ehm…" Alex was embarrassed, not knowing what to say to his father-in-law.

"He has eight currently." Lin Xingzhi was the first to answer before pointing at Silvia. "She is the ninth."

The Time God clenched even tighter and glared at him while saying, "You bastard…Congratulations…"

"Father…" Alex knew that he was furious. There was no shred of happiness in that congratulatory.

"I don't have the knowledge of having a bastard like you as my son-in-law." The Time God turned around and stomped the ground.

"Father. No need to worry. Just imagine how many grandchildren you can carry. Besides, the number is perfect after calculating it for one thousand years."

"Grandchildren, you say…" The Time God turned back as he imagined that scene happened. His face mellowed a bit and snorted. "Hmph. I will forgive you this time for allowing me to imagine it in this last meeting."

Alex was speechless, not knowing what to say.

"Anyway, please leave everything to me." Lin Xingzhi smiled.

"Fine, fine. In that case, I will give you two things for you." He waved his hand as the first item appeared above his hand.

It was a compass.

"I don't think I need to explain what this compass is, right?" The Time God stared menacingly at Alex.

Alex repeatedly nodded. "Don't worry. I will go to her as quickly as possible."

"This is the second one."
