The woman smiled. "I am yours forever, in the past, in the present, and even in the future."
Alex closed his eyes. He did not know why, but he wanted to smile just by hearing her voice. He suddenly widened his eyes as he remembered something important. "You… what is your name?"
She shook her head as she walked to him. She did not hug him or something as she just started pushing Alex toward the door.
Alex walked backward in surprise. He realized that she would not tell him her name or something to him. As for the reason, it might be because it was not the time or not qualified yet, so Alex did not ask more.
However, just right before he went out of the place, the woman suddenly took one more step forward and gave a peck on his cheek. She then pushed him outside the door and waved her hand. "It's still not the time yet, so I won't tell you. However, my feeling is always the same… I love you, Host. See you later."
Alex was shocked as a part of his heart was telling him to hug her. Sadly, it was not possible as the door started to vanish together with her, and his soul began to come back to his body.
A few seconds later,
Alex rose from the floor and looked at the previous door's location. He then put his right hand on his cheek. He had a complicated feeling about this situation. It was a pleasant feeling which made him happy. At the same time, he also felt a weird feeling, and it began to spread in his heart. He was wondering why that was and wanted to ask, but the door that could truly connect them was not in front of him again.
"Martial King, huh… I will come back when I reach Martial King… probably." Alex said while closing his eyes. He shook his head as he read the Spirit Step once again. He was planning to learn the technique after this over before learning about the Space Seal Technique.
He took a deep breath to calm his heart. He still needed to deal with the invasion tomorrow, so he could not afford to be excited about this.
Alex then took out Ngina's and Nicole's cards. Because of this matter, they had been stationed outside Carageo City. Their mission was to scout the area around and inform him if the Martial Kings would arrive soon.
As for the Southern Kingdom and the Thiveapia Kingdom, which were the place they had been stationed before, it did not matter to him. Nelson also said that they would just need to have one of them to oversee the continent when they reached Martial King stage. As for the rest, they would then start advancing to the Northern Continent and investigate the power level there.
Well, he would only send them after this matter with the Zhou Kingdom since he could not afford to be careless in this battle.
"Ngina, Nicole, how is the situation over there?"
"There is nothing unusual over here, and it seems we only need to wait for them to arrive," Nicole explained. Ngina did not say anything, which meant he agreed with her.
"Alright. I don't know their exact speed, but it will still be at least fifteen minutes from your position, so I think it will be fine." Alex said.
"Yes."
Alex nodded his head. Anna and the others were inside their cards since nothing would change even if they kept hunting in the past few days. So, rather than exhausting them, he wanted them to rest as he was planning to make them use all their power the moment he summoned them.
After a while, he noticed a presence in front of his room. When he activated his Spirit Eyes, he could see a woman in front of the door, albeit only her energy and shape. As for who, Alex could guess though, considering the woman had Pure Ice Element.
Since he had finished his business with the system, he said, "Come in."
The door was opened, and Letizia came in. Her face was a bit flushed. Although this was only a room at a certain inn, it was still her first time to enter a boy's room. She thought she would not be flustered by this, but expectation and reality might not be the same as even Alex could see she was nervous.
She stood in front of Alex and said hurriedly. "MMaster, I have come here to report about tomorrow's plan."
"No need to be tense," Alex said, thinking she was tense because of their Master and Disciple relationship.
"Y-yess!" She nodded furiously. It would be fine if it were in any other place. But inside his room, she could see the bed behind Alex, and her wild thoughts surfaced in her mind. Despite having the knowledge about it, she never experienced something like this.
Alex sighed. "Well, what is the plan?"
"The plan…" Letizia hurriedly took out a paper from her space ring and handed it to Alex. In the paper, there were eight fights that had been carefully considered.
Alex saw all the matches and just nodded. He did not know their real capability anyway, so he just trusted the battle arrangement.
He only noticed a few names like Charya in the first battle, the first elder and the third elder, and him being in the last fight with Letizia as his opponent.
"We will fake the battle tomorrow. Most battles will go like this, five minutes of weapon clashing and then two big Martial Arts, just to make it more flashy. After that, one of them will lose, and the other will look like he/she is exhausted and surrendered.
"With this battle, we should be able to retain around ninety percent of our energy. This way, we can recover from it in a short time." Letizia explained carefully.
"Well, it is good enough. What about our fight? If our fight had finished before those guys came, they might change their strategy." Alex asked.
"This is the problem. I can try to challenge you in a sword fight… literally without Master's spear and my Ice Element to buy time." She answered.
"Hmm… Well, you can use a couple of big moves as I will let out my Sword King power. Maybe one Ice tornado and one Phoenix are enough for the show… after that, we can do some sword fight." Alex said.
"Understood." Letizia nodded.
"Then, let's talk about the thing that will happen next." Alex changed the topic. "Although I have said just to follow my instruction, I think I will explain it a bit more clearly."
"Please."
"There will be many Martial Kings coming tomorrow, and a barrier will prevent all people under Martial King from moving. Basically, it will suppress your element to the point you can't move. Of course, our Pure Element can resist that, but I still want us to hide it. It is just to lower the enemy's guard.
"After a minute, the array should break since I have done some tweaking. At that time, I will stop all the Martial Kings and ultimately kill them. Meanwhile, you will go back to our forces and have them moved toward Rivulet Forest.
"I will then activate the barrier that I place on that place and trap all the soldiers."
"Are we going to attack them? Or we wait?" Letizia asked. Alex should have a few Martial Kings under him.
Alex only smiled, "We will wait until the Martial Kings come to aid us. We will then start attacking them. Besides, the longer they wait, the more anxiety will be built up inside their heart.
"It will be better if they start attacking the barrier and exhaust themselves. That way, we will have an easier time." Alex shrugged.
"Master, may I ask what is this barrier that is capable of stopping 150,000 soldiers?"
"It is nothing much. Only twenty rank 5 barriers, which makes a huge formation and a hundred million Spirit Stones." Alex smiled.
"Twenty rank 5 barriers and a hundred million Spirit Stones?" Letizia was dumbfounded. There was not a single rank 5 Array Master in this continent and to think Alex was one of them. It did not stop there. Alex even used a hundred million Spirit Stones, and he said it like it was not a big deal.
She, once again, was shocked by him. With this relaxed attitude, she was sure Alex had more 'money' than that. In fact, he might even have more money than their entire sect. She gasped.
"Anyway, that's all. Do you have any other questions?" Alex asked.
Letizia shook her head furiously. She stood up and bowed to him, "Then, please excuse me, Master."
"Yes." Alex nodded.
After she left, Alex just relaxed his mind for the rest of the day.
…
The next day,
"Ladies and Gentlemen… it seems you are bored since I called you with this these past few days. Anyway, we have the climax of our battle today. Heavenly Sword Sect versus Rainbow Flower Sect."
"Ooh!" The spectators did not care about the joke and cheered as they were eager to see the battle between Alexander Sirius and Letizia La Scola.
They had spread the word about both of them in the town. The people in the town had been talking about them from yesterday. They wanted to enter the arena, but it was already full, so they decided to look at it from the sky.
Although there was an unwritten rule to forbid people from flying inside the town, it became an exception just for today. And the City Lord, AKA, the announcer had also informed them they could do that.
The people were thrilled with that announcement. Although it was a bit tiring, they did not care because it was worth it.
"I will announce the reward first. The Martial Lord Tournament will get sixty percent of the share. This sixty percent will be divided again according to the ranking. The first rank will get twenty-five percent. The second place will get twenty percent while the third place will get fifteen percent.
"The Martial Grandmaster Tournament will get the rest forty percent. The same as before, The first rank will get fifteen percent. The second rank will get ten percent, and the last place will get five percent. The last five percent will be split into those who didn't win.
"Buddha Sect finished at third in both tournaments, so they received twenty percent of one of the biggest mines in history. According to the research, the total reserve is more than one billion Spirit Stones. And twenty percent of it is about two hundred million. Although this can only be mined bit by bit, their progress will soar even further with these many spirit stones.
"As for this match, it will be determined which one will get the first place and the second place. With the result of the Martial Grandmaster Tournament, Heavenly Sword Sect has got a fifteen percent share of the mine. In comparison, Rainbow Flower Sect receives ten percent share.
"In this match, it will be determined whether the Heavenly Sword Sect will receive a total of forty percent of the share or the Rainbow Flower Sect will get a sum of thirty-five percent share.
"Not only this, but we can also see which is the strongest influence on this continent. Will it be Rainbow Flower Sect or Heavenly Sword Sect!
"For that, let us give a big applause to them!" The announcer explained.
*Applauses*
The people started cheering for the influence they wanted to win. It was so loud that even the ground was shaking.
Seeing the hype of the situation, he roared, "Now! The First Match!"
