Gacha Sovereign 114 Journey Begin

"What a surprise, to think that the dean lose"

"He intentionally loses to him"

"There is no way for the dean to lose"

"Yes, he is his student after all."

"What a fool. If you watch the match closely, they are going all out"

There are many comments from the crowds. Alex still clueless about it but even he knows it, he will just ignore it. Alex walked away from the arena. He met with Alicia and the rest.

"Alex, you…I can't believe it"

"I also can't believe it. Teacher is very strong" He turned to Firia.

"With you winning today, I can convince them more easily" Firia said.

"Is that so? Sorry for that"

"Don't mind it, it is my choice"

"Then, are you going to the demi-human territory after this?"

"Yes" Alex nodded, "Oh right, where are Father-in-law and Uncle-in-law?"

"They left just now without saying a word"

"Is that so?"

They chatted for a while before Alex went back to check on Sherry. When he opened the door, he saw Sherry sat on the bed. When Sherry saw him, she immediately jumps off the bed and tackled him. Even though Sherry was in her small form. But she still bonafide a rank 8 monster. Alex fell down to the floor. "Haha, have you finished refining the pill?"

"Wuu" Sherry nodded. Then she let out her mana to let Alex see.

"Yep, you have a breakthrough." Alex patted her head for a while.

"I wanted to see my teacher first, do you want to follow me?"

"Wuu" Sherry nodded, then she turned to a stream of light and went inside of Alex. Alex then walked to the dean's courtyard.

"Teacher"

"Oh, you finished your matter?"

"Yes. How about your wound?"

"It's fine. The wound already closed. You are going to the demi-human territory, right? When is it?"

"Tomorrow"

"I see. Then do you know the way?"

"I have a map"

"Which one?"

"The general one"

"…" The dean facepalmed. "Wait here a bit"

The dean left. After a while, he comes back with a big scroll in his hand. "This is the detailed map. Well, this one is a national level. You won't get it from anywhere"

He opened the map. He started explaining the territories. "This is the demi-human territories. Although our relationship with them is good enough for us to send our principal to help them. There are still a few races that didn't accept us. Do you know the 'Council' right?"

"The 'Council', the one who controlled the entire demi-human race, in other words, their leader. They consist of five races, Elves, dwarf, centaur, titan, and druid."

"That's right. We have a good relationship with three of them. They are elves, dwarf, and druid. We have a neutral relationship with the titan. They only protect the divine tree, they didn't want to intervene in the worldly matter. But the problem is the centaur race. They love to fight. Especially with the other races like us or the demon. If there is any war, they will be the ones who take the front. This is the centaur territory, this is the elves, dwarf, titan, and druid. This last one is their divine city where the divine tree resides, and also the place of their council headquarters."

The dean circling a few areas on the map. The closest ones from human territory are Centaur, Druid, and elves. While dwarf and titan was relatively closer to the demon territory.

"Even though they don't have any same purpose, they just wanted to protect their territory. But there is one time they banded together, the thing they were most concerned about."

"The divine tree"

"That's right. That's your plan, right? If you wanted to help the divine tree, you need to go to the divine city where the tree resides. So, if you wanted to go there, you need to go to this Forest first"

"Dakan Forest?"

"Yes. This is a neutral forest. After that, you go to the divine city through the druid territory."

"Druid? Not the elves?" Alex was surprised, according to the map, he will arrive faster if he goes through the elf's territory. He looked at the dean, confused.

"Though we have a good relationship with the elves. But they didn't want any other races to trespass their territory"

"Teacher, how exactly that good relationship was built in the first place?"

"Hmm, the dwarf was the longest. It was around one hundred years ago where one of our students become a friend with one of their elders. He becomes his student and later become his close confidant when he became one of the council members, my teacher in forging is a dwarf too. I often drink with him, they love wine after all. As for the elves, around twenty years ago. We helped them releasing many elf slaves that got caught by the slave traders from the other kingdoms. You know the reason why elves were sought after, right?"

"Natural beauty and affinity with magic along with their long life span?"

"That's right. The males are handsome and the females are beautiful. They were only about a level down from you in terms of handsomeness."

"Teacher!"

"Hoho, I don't want my students to lose to them even in terms of handsomeness, but what I say is true." The dean said happily, Alex glared at him. "Cough, I stray from the topic. Alright, besides their natural beauty. Their affinity with magic was also top-notch. Along with their natural long life span, oh, they were also very versed with knowledge. That is the reason why the elves sought after. Even now, there still many slave traders trying to kidnap the elves. That's why they didn't let anyone to trespass into their territory."

Alex nodded.

"As for the druid. They were the most recent ones. And our principal was the one who established the relationship. You know his element, right? He solved one of their major problems when he is younger, I forgot what the problem is. Anyway, That's why we sent him there to help the divine tree. The druid was the most versed about the wood element, they were the one in charge of taking care of the divine tree while the titan protects it."

"I see. Let me confirm it once again. First, I will go to this Dakan Forest. Then I will pass the druid territory and finally reach the divine city"

"That's right. Here is the letter to the principal. He should know why you came and will help you. And when you arrived at Dakan Forest. You can't fly from that place up to the Divine City, or they will see you as an enemy. It's their custom."

"Thank you, Teacher" Alex nodded "I wanted their help to stop the war. Combined with our kingdom. I think we can finally stop the war"

The dean nodded. "I will try to coordinate the people from this kingdom. You will do your job."

"Then I will excuse myself" Alex nodded, he walked away.

"Wait, Alex. One more thing. The thing you said about Hero Involvement in 'that' incident. We have confirmed it. It is really him who instigated the event. We will pay him back. But I'm sure you are the one who wanted to do it. So we will leave him to you. After we gather enough people, we will immediately march to the battlefield." Even though Alex has defeated him. He still worried about him. Alex turned back and bowed, without saying anything he left.

…

The next day. It's time for Alex to go. He didn't meet his teacher. Instead, he said goodbye to Alicia and Firia.

"I'm going then"

"Don't worry about the wedding. I and Firia will prepare for all of them. When you go back, we need to hold our wedding immediately, that's why you can't go back wounded, you hear me?"

"Yes, Ma'am"

"Good" Alicia nodded. But she suddenly hugged him.

Alex was surprised a bit but he hugged her back.

After a while, she released him. Then he turned to Firia.

"Don't worry about my parents. Do you have any requests for our wedding?"

"request?" Alex thought a bit and shake his head. "I will leave it to you"

Suddenly, he kissed her lips. Firia was taken aback from this sudden kiss. She slowly closed her eyes. The two lips touched each other. The sweet cherry lips were planted on his lips. The kiss was like opening up your soul, tasting feeling and seeing every color of the rainbow. The softness, the sweetness of her lips. The feeling that can't be described by words. He felt both of them levitating in the air like nothing exist in the world except He and her. A sweet cherry lips founded in the spring, like a fireworks glowing and brightening the dark sky. For Firia, she was finally received her first kiss from him. The long-awaited kiss. She savors this new feeling, she felt his emotion, his feeling…his love in this kiss, at this moment, she didn't want to let him go, she didn't want to be separated from him. This happiness…'Alex, I love you"

Alicia on the side nodded her head repeatedly. 'Finally' she thought.

After a long kiss, they finally separated, Firia slowly opened her eyes. Looking at Alex's handsome face. She presented her most beautiful smile to him. Alex was captivated by her at this moment.

He blushed, "Well, I still owe you a kiss, right? I'm sorry for making you wait this long"

Tears started coming down from her eyes, she hugged him very tightly. She felt this whole thing was worth, every effort she made to get closer to him was worth it. She is his. 'He remembered. The promised kiss from back then.'

They hugged for quite a while, Suddenly Firia released her hugged and turned to Alicia. "Alicia"

She urged Alicia to hug him together. Alicia smiled and joined her in.

…

Alex finally ready to go, "See you soon"

Alex flew to the sky and his journey to the demi-human territory start.

But after he flies for a few seconds, Sherry suddenly appeared on top of his head.

"Sherry?"

"Wuu Wuu" Tapping his head a few times with her paw. She seems pouting.

Alex smiled. He stroked her head for a bit. Which left her satisfied. But she seems didn't want to go back.

"Wuu Wuu, Wuu Wuu (It's boring inside. It's better like this)"

"Are you sure?"

"Wuu" Sherry nodded her head furiously.

"Well, I don't really mind though. As long as you like it"

"Wuu"

He continued flying with Sherry on top of his head.
