Gacha Sovereign 301 Inner Disciple Tournament 6-Talk

Alex came back to the inside. He looked at Song Yu's, Charya's, and Evelyn's sad face. He said, "Well… good news, I know someone who can cure the curse."

"Is that true?" Song Yu raised her head with glimmer hope. Even Charya and Evelyn raised their head.

Alex nodded. "Indeed, but I could only do it after the tournament ended. So, I want to ask someone to check her condition first. Is that alright?"

"Of course, how can that not alright?" Song Yu replied hurriedly.

"I will call her later. Do you find anything about this incident?"

Song Yu looked at Charya and Evelyn before turning to Alex. She decided to tell it to Alex. She grabbed Alex's hand and said, "Come with me."

She led him outside so the others couldn't hear it.

"Well, I will only tell this to you since Master and Evelyn should not hear this one."

"Evelyn aside, but why should Elder Charya not hear this?"

"You are the calmest. Evelyn should not take this information, so it won't affect her progress. As for Master… You already know her personality, if she knows this, I am afraid she will go rampage." Song Yu said.

Alex looked at her serious expression and nodded. "Alright."

"Since my hearing is good. I can hear their conversation in that loud arena. And even I could not believe it. First of all, you do know about that Mega, right?"

Alex nodded.

"She is the mastermind for this incident. She is the one who inflicted Putri with the curse. I don't know how she can do it, but it seems she is collaborating with that Intan to destroy Putri and expel them from the family." Song Yu said.

"Collaborating? Why? If they want to expel Putri from the Makmur Family, they should just do it. No need for something like this."

"This is only my speculation, but Putri is the second person of the Makmur Family Younger Generation. And that Intan is the first person in their younger generation.

"Before, Putri was a nobody. When she became my junior sister, her talent started to bloom. And when she became Master's disciple, she progressed with leaps and bounds.

"Putri became a thorn in their eyes, so they wanted to erase her. But if they killed Putri, with Master's temperament, she would even fight the entire family. And if they just expelled Putri from the family, they were afraid Putri would take revenge against them in the future.

"Considering her progress, it might be possible in the future. That's why they wanted to destroy Putri first before expelling Putri from the family."

"…" Alex contemplated. He didn't know how complicated the family would be. But what Song Yu said was reasonable.

He remembered that Mega and Kasmanan Family wanted to kill him because he had Zwaka's inheritance. He didn't know why they could know about it, but the only thing he could come up with was they suspected Putri about it. Since they could not openly fight Putri for it, they targeted him.

"But is it truly that princess?" Alex asked.

"I'm sure. This is what I heard from Intan. That Intan might not expect, I can hear her when she says something to Putri. After all, the only one who knew about my exceptional hearing was only you, Putri, Master, and Evelyn.

"I heard she said Mega only became her friend so they could destroy Putri together and have her expelled from the family. With that, that princess would get the support from the Makmur Family for the throne."

Alex frowned. He never thought that Princess was such a person.

"Well, she even said that her fiance, Eric, also cheated on her and had a relationship with Mega. But because of the Kasmanan Family suddenly destroyed in a single night. She immediately abandoned him so she won't be targeted." Song Yu said.

Alex frowned, he said, "But, since they want to destroy Senior Sister, she might be lying."

Song Yu shook her head. "She even used the Heavenly Oath to tell her she was not lying."

"…"

Song Yu looked at his troubled expression. Alex was starting to get agitated. She was also trying her best to remain calm.

"What else?"

"Well, she only said that everyone around her was only a fake: her fiance, her only friend, and even her parents. They were set up so they could break her."

"I see. Then that is the biggest mistake they could ever make." Alex said coldly. He closed his eyes for a moment before opening it again, and he said, "Can I talk to Senior Sister Putri? There is something I want to convey to her."

Looking at Alex's serious expression, Song Yu couldn't say no. "I will lead you to her room."

"Thanks." Alex nodded.

Song Yu led him to a room. Song Yu left him in front of the room.

Alex looked at the door and knocked it a few times.

'Knock, Knock'

"Senior Sister, this is Alex. Can I come in? I want to say something to you." Alex said softly.

He waited for a while but didn't receive any answers from Putri. He tried to open the door, and fortunately, it was not locked.

He opened the door slowly and tried to find Putri.

Putri was lying down with her back facing him. She looked exhausted from crying. Alex slowly walked toward her.

He stopped in front of her bed for a while. Putri then suddenly said with a hollow voice. "You must be disappointed with me."

"No," Alex replied.

"You must be. I am already useless now. Even the curse will kill me sooner or later."

"I know someone who can cure you."

Her body shook. She replied hurriedly, "Even if I am cured, I cannot use Spear anymore."

"I don't understand what you mean by a spear. That is only a weapon, and you still have your wind element."

"I don't have anything left. My only friend that I always trust, my fiance who cheated behind my back, and even the last family I have, my parents."

Alex sat on the floor and leaned his back on the bed. "I also had parents and a little sister. At first, my parents loved me, but after they were obsessed with my little sister's talent. They started ignoring me, and I started losing everything I had from that point."

"Then, do you hate your parents and your little sister?"

"I don't know. My parents aside, I don't think I hate my little sister. Although she often came and beat me, she just cannot be honest to herself. I felt that she wanted to encourage me but cannot be honest to herself."

"But she still beat you. Or do you have that kind of preference?"

"No. Anyway, after that, my girlfriend cheated on me with my best friend. In fact, I found our condition was similar. That was the lowest point in my life."

"We might be similar, but now, I am crippled since I can't use my spear. I am at rock bottom."

"Rock bottom indeed. Because I reached this point that I can say this with confidence. Because you are at rock bottom, you wouldn't have any other way other than going up, right?"

Putri's body shook again.

Alex continued, "Don't say something like talent. If you say you don't have any talent, you can only say it after you give it your all and exhaust all of your energy. I believe all people have the same level of talent. But they just don't use it in the right place and in the right way."

Putri said while gritting her teeth, "But, I have lost that talent. I am not a genius in a sword like you, and I am not an Alchemist or even an Array Master like you. My cultivation progress is not as fast as you. And now, I lose the only thing that can make me stand toe to toe with other people."

Alex summoned Anna quietly. Before entering the room, Alex had asked Anna if she could check her without her knowing. Anna said as long as she was nearby, she could check her. Since Alex's and Putri's back were facing each other, this would be the perfect time.

When she appeared, Anna only sent a black energy inside her. This energy went unnoticed.

Alex wanted Anna to check her condition quietly because he didn't understand her heart's state. After all, Song Yu and Charya just prevented her from suicide. This talk was to distract her so Anna could check her condition.

"I don't think so," Alex said softly.

Anna then nodded at him.

"I have finished checking her condition. The curse power is not that strong, but it is hard to be purified. Although it is hard, my sister can purify it, so you don't need to be worried about her." Anna said in thought transmission.

"I see. Thanks, Anna." Alex nodded. Anna also nodded her head, and then Alex recalled her back to the card.

"You don't think so? I have lost everything! My fiance, my only friend, my parents, and even my spear!" Putri shouted while crying.

"But, you still have us."

"What can it do? I will always be protected from now on. I get stronger so I can protect my family, but not protected by them. It is better to die than being protected for the rest of my life. You go out! Go out right now!" Putri shouted at him.

Alex then stood up. He started walking toward the door. He opened it slowly, but before he left the room. He looked at Putri's back, and said, "Senior Sister… Sixth round, tomorrow's last battle."

Putri's body shook again. It was already hurting her to shout at Alex like this. Her heart wrenched in pain. She knew Alex just wanted to comfort her, but she shouted him away like this. But when Alex said the sixth round, she knew what he meant.

It was his fight with Intan. And she precisely remembered that she wanted to destroy Alex too. She gritted her teeth.

"Please watch me. I have something to tell you in that match." Alex said. This was the one that he wanted to convey from the beginning. All the talk until now was only a distraction so Anna could check her condition. Since his objective had been completed, then it would be better to leave her alone so she could calm her mind.

After he said that, Alex left the room.

Noticing he came out of the room, Song Yu immediately came to him and asked with a worried face. "Have you finished?"

Alex calmly smiled and said, "Don't worry about Senior Sister. She is a strong and talented woman. She only needs a little push. For now, we should give her some time to think."

"How about her condition? You know someone who can check her condition, right? We should invite that person right now." Song Yu said hurriedly.

"I have checked her. The curse itself is not that strong, so she should be fine for now. But the problem is the curse is hard to be purified."

Song Yu's face became pale when she heard that.

Alex only smiled, "Don't worry. I can guarantee you that the person I know can cure that curse."

"Are you sure?"

Alex affirmed. Song Yu's expression finally relaxed a bit. Song Yu said with the first smile she showed after this incident, "I will tell Master about this."

"Alright. Tell her I need to go back so I can prepare for tomorrow."

"Yes."

Alex then came back to his house and summoned Anna. He decided not to practice since his heart was a bit disturbed by the incident.

He only sat in front of his house, trying to relax by watching the sky and feeling the calm atmosphere. Of course, Anna took this chance to sit beside him.

While relaxing, Alex etched the name of Mega Indrajaja and Intan Wulan on his heart. He might need to spill some blood tomorrow… well, he might be stopped by the third elder, though.
