BXBX NOVEL Chapter 985 - Return
After passing through them, they arrived inside a room filled with many items. Each of them seemed to have a price tag, so everyone could buy if they had enough points.
Alex and Aria already got too much from this world and had no intention of buying these items. They headed straight to the counter, where they found a few elders in charge of calculating and recording the data.
Alex also found Elder Ravagera that seemed to be waiting for him, but he pulled another trick and had Aria in front of him, so the one handling him was another elder.
Elder Ravagera clicked his tongue but still glanced over him to find how much he got. Since Alex and Aria split up what they got evenly, both had the same amount of points. Ravagera couldn\'t find anything wrong with it, except the fact that Alex still maintained his low-key.
Ravagera knew that there was no choice for that. He only felt happy just to see him becoming an 8-Star Martial Saint despite coming here less than two years. Sometimes he wondered what kind of devil technique Alex had, but he swore to only start meddling with his matter only after becoming a God Rank Expert.
It was too troublesome to take care of this kid before that point because he would be in a vocal position. At that time, Alex might feel uncomfortable and search for another place to settle down. That was something he couldn\'t afford to see.
After all, as the teacher of the Peerless Sword God, he knew that the Sword God had actually joined another sect before reaching his place. However, the elders prioritized their relatives instead of those who were talented, making the Sword God leave.
Luckily, he picked him up and taught him well, and those sects couldn\'t rise to the three big sects level despite not being that far off. To his surprise, the Sword God had a grudge against them, and the sect began to decline over the years until it was completely wiped out.
If someone like Alex did the same, the consequence would be too big unless they could kill Alex. So, the best way was to let Ilevis handle everything for the time being until they became a God Rank Expert.
Alex didn\'t care though, since he would disappear soon. He only received the points and walked to his room with Aria.
"Nyx. I don\'t know why but you are more mysterious than I thought." Aria suddenly uttered this statement.
"You are talking about this now?" Alex asked. It was already so long after the negotiation with the Rhoas, so it was weird for her to talk about it now.
"Actually, I just wanted to thank you for protecting my brother, but it seemed I couldn\'t suppress my curiosity."
Alex shook his head. "Then, you should wait. Everything will be revealed when you become a God Rank Expert. At that time, you should get a mission to another world and fake your death."
"I know. Someone will come for me, right?"
"Not really. I was planning to ask Njomo to guide you toward Eulja. I am still not sure whether to call a Teleportation Array Master to bring you back. Just a little challenge from me." Alex smirked.
"I don\'t really mind. After all, you should test my strength as your subordinate, so you didn\'t pick the wrong person." She nodded with a serious expression, even though Alex just wanted to tease her.
Alex scratched the back of his head and corrected himself. "Well, sure. Your strength is indeed powerful in your peers, but I am worried because you don\'t have enough experience. I can either give you the experiences you need during the trip or hand over a few tasks after you reach my place."
"I am ready for everything." She nodded.
"Anyway, just rest for now. We are going to leave soon and reach the Unsurpassed Blade Sect in a few days. After that, I feel like going for another trip to another world." Alex thought for a moment.
"A mission?"
"Yeah, but I am not sure. After all, the mission is so Mya can join too. Since I have promised to be fair, I need to find one." Alex sighed.
Aria smiled. "No wonder you have multiple wives."
"Hm?" Alex didn\'t understand what he meant. This was only his principle, so he thought nothing of it. "Well, I can have another option which brings her after leaving this world…But we will see."
"Now that I think about it, the time limit is near." Aria let out a long sigh, never expecting that Alex would soon need to leave this world. "A few months later, the Sword Pavilion will open, and I think you will leave that world at that time."
"Yes, I think. I am still wondering how to fake my death." Alex fell into deep thought. "Your strength is enough for you to reach the apex of this world, and I have no doubt about it."
"Thanks."
"Anyway, I will be thinking about the current plan for this return trip." An idea seemed to appear in his mind as he continued with a question. "Is there a case where the participant died in the Sword Pavilion?"
"Yes. Some can\'t go back."
Alex frowned and thought this could be used, or there was an appointment with the Luzear family regarding the auction. He might be able to pick up some enemies and disappear from that time. Sneaking inside the Sword Pavilion was an easy thing to do anyway.
Seeing Alex had fallen into deep thought, Aria decided to silently walk away and leave the room, giving him time to think about it.
After some time, they finally left the world, heading straight to the planet where their Core Disciples had their competition.
Alex simply had no interest in watching them, so he just lied down on the bed to carefully consider his plan.
The journey to the home started. It might be due to the Rank 4 Gods that closely watched their surroundings, there were no other beings that attacked them.
What made him surprised was when he found another person a bit farther from them. That person was a Rank 7 God, but due to those inside the spaceship, that person instantly left to avoid conflict.
It seemed there were still people traveling like that, Alex thought.
Other than that person, he didn\'t find anything interesting.
Finally, five days later, the journey was over. They could already see their planet, and many people had thought about it.
To his surprise, Aria didn\'t bother him any more during this return trip, especially since he forgot about the promise to walk around the ship.
When they almost reached the planet\'s atmosphere, Aria knocked the room, and he let her in.
"I am sorry." Alex suddenly apologized.
"What for?" Aria furrowed her eyebrows. It was hard to find a moment where Alex uttered a sincere apology, so she wondered what was wrong with him. She then remembered the promise Alex made. "Ah. I also forgot so it\'s not a big deal. Besides, your place should have one as well, right? I can just learn there."
Alex smiled. "Thank you for your understanding."
She only smiled while waving her hand.
When they entered the atmosphere, the spaceship started becoming hot due to the friction with the atmosphere. Luckily, the spaceship was made of metal that could easily withstand something like this, so there was no fire or whatsoever even in the friction area.
However, the turbulence was still there, so Alex and Aria kept bouncing up and down for several minutes. The spaceship then finally parked inside the Unsurpassed Blade Sect.
"We have arrived at our sect. Although you have known about other people\'s points, there is still a possibility for the person who has the highest point to be disqualified after a series of judging, so no one knows about the result yet.
"However, we happily announce that all of you have worked hard. Although there were many misunderstandings in the process, you all were our proud disciples."
The Vice-sect Master\'s voice rang on the speaker. Unlike the first impression they had with her, this time, she looked like a gentle grandmother that praised their children.
Regardless, he and Aria waited until most disciples had gone through the gate before using the gate.
When they arrived, Alex activated his Spirit Eyes to see whether Ilevis was here or not.
"Let\'s go. We can sneak out of here." Alex asked after confirming the situation.
Aria nodded and followed him since there were already many people who had left this place.
When they arrived at their house, Alex and Aria found Ilevis standing in front of their house.
Obviously, she noticed the mouse on Alex\'s shoulder and nodded. "It seems this trip is bountiful."
"Thanks to you." Alex acknowledged it, albeit he felt Rhoas would say something regarding the mouse even without her information. Either way, she was the assurance for him to go this far, so he considered the deal was completed.
"Your points?"
"We both gathered only twenty-five thousand each," Aria answered this time.
"That\'s good. Not too low, not too high. No one would look at your way, so it means your identity remains unknown." Ilevis\'s face turned serious since she had her own goal.
"Anyway, I\'m done here, so I am going back. Need to meet with Melvie too." Ilevis nodded and waved her hand before vanishing into thin air.
Alex and Aria opened the door and entered the house.
"You can rest today since you must be tired from the trip…Mentally," Alex added the last piece since the trip was quite boring.
"Sure. I will be ready for your devilish training tomorrow." She pumped her fist. "That\'s right. You don\'t mind if I visit my brother and send a memory crystal to my family, right? I want to let them know about my condition."
"It\'s your free day. You can do whatever you want, just don\'t make an enemy like the previous time." Alex nodded.
"Alright. Thanks." She waved her hand and left.
Meanwhile, Alex headed to his room and sent a paper, telling Silvia that he came home.
"Leka, this is your new house. It\'s going to be for several months, and yeah, the time on this planet is ten times of your planet, so you might want to adjust the time in your mind first."
"Yes, Master. Still, to think there is so much Spiritual Energy around here…" Leka looked around.
"There is also my Rank 9 Gathering Array. That\'s why it\'s been this high." Alex shrugged.
"No wonder. Then, I am going around this house first." She waved her hand.
"Sure." Alex nodded before turning in another direction, finding Silvia\'s presence. She came with Heilo since Alex asked her to take care of him when he was away.
