TIME LEFT BEFORE THE POSSESSION FINISHES: 45 MINUTES
TIME LEFT BEFORE EMPEROR LITCH ARRVVIES: 37 MINUTES
"Tsk."
Upon reaching these calculations within his mind, Alex, who was observing the ’battle’ between Malthus and the Cosmic Guards, shook his head as he realized another problem.
"With my connection with the Conqueror’s Aura, I can feel the proximity of Emperor Litch. Judging from the way that he is moving, it will take him 37 minutes to reach this plane. That’s 8 minutes earlier than Sierra’s possession." Alex thought to himself grimly as he let out a sigh.
"Tsk, Emperor Litch should be arriving here in a few hours, but it seems like my actions had forced that man to speed up his travelling rate." Alex muttered, with his mind now preoccupied with the matters related to the Emperor himself. "So all in all, I only have 37 minutes left to prepare against Emperor Litch.... Will this time be enough to prepare against him? Hmm... since he had sped himself up, then I must hasten my pace too."
Upon making this decision, Alex let out a hiss as he detached his control over Blue Alex. He then focused his attention on one of his other clones, which had been doing an exemplary task at this moment.
"Golden Alex, you might hate getting commanded upon, but you have no choice but to follow me right now." Alex declared in a loud tone, establishing his connection with Golden Alex in just a split-second. "You could feel the impending arrival of Emperor LItch, right? If you don’t want to end up inside him, then you better use the Divine Beings for the plan already!"
"Original Alex, do you think doing what you want me to do is easy? And now you want me to rush it? Hah, what a bossy man!" Golden Alex replied mentally, with his tone showing his irritation towards Alex.
"Gold boy, I know that your task is hard. After all, you’re tasked with using the Divine Beings to look for the Legacy Weapon." Alex said calmly. "But with the preparations that I made, you should have some semblance of success by now...."
"Well, I’m sorry to break this to you, but the Divine Beings did not sense anything similar to the ones that you want to see." Golden Alex said without displaying his thoughts in these matter.
"What? What the hell? Why can’t they even sense what I want them to sense? Gold boy, did you do something lecherous to them earlier?"
"Hmph, don’t complain about that clichéd stuff to me. Say those complaints on these three morons!" Golden Alex retorted angrily, with his mental arrow pointing towards Peina, Lingo, and the angel, who were all flying behind him.
All three of them were following Golden Alex with serious expressions on their faces, something that made Alex feel serious too.
"Seriously? Even with those three with you, you can’t even get a hint or feeling on a possible hiding spot of the Legacy Weapon?" Alex mused as he looked at the Divine Beings with incredulity. "With their level of power, shouldn’t they have been able to just sense it?"
"..."
"Golden Alex, these three Divine Beings have been imprisoned in this world for thousands of years. With that kind of timespan, these three should be familiar with the auras and powers present in this world! And yet even with that, they were saying that they can’t sense a possible lead for the Legacy Weapon? Hah, that’s just pure c**p!"
At this point, Alex looked like he was about to storm in the area and start berating the Divine Beings following Golden Alex. That’s how angry he is, and even the nonchalant Golden Alex pulled back a little as he felt Alex’s intention.
Fortunately for everyone, Alex was able to keep himself calm. Now, his face only looked like an extremely pissed monkey, something that was way better compared to his appearance earlier.
Golden Alex took this as his chance to talk, with his next words uttered in the fastest and clearest way that he could.
"I asked Lingo why they can’t sense anything right now and he gave me a quick answer. According to him, they will only be able to sense something if Malthus was with them. After all, that Traveler was also a Divine Being that was imprisoned here before." Golden Alex said quickly. "It only makes sense for him to be needed here, as he shared the same circumstance as these people beside me..."
"..." Alex only kept quiet to that, as he appeared to be deeply contemplating everything that he had heard.
"Hmph, now that you heard their reasons, what would you do, original?" Golden Alex leered as he kept his focus on guiding the Divine Beings "Will you find a way to bring Malthus here, or will you just let us wander like lost people here?
"...There is no way that I will let Malthus join the other three Divine Beings. If we do that, we will just be handing him the mission itself." Alex replied forcefully. "In fact, I have the inkling that Malthus’ plan is related to the Divine Beings too.... "
"If that’ the truth, then my action on ’kidnapping’ these Divine Beings had paid off then. Good!" Golden Alex replied smugly as he crossed his arms. He then continued to maintain his connection with the original Alex, with him acting less hostile than before.
"Good? You call this good? Hmph, if those Divine Beings can’t even sense what we have been looking for, then how are we supposed to find it?" Alex exclaimed as he brushed his hands over his spiritual hair. "If those Divine Beings can only be used like this, then they will just be wasting my time!"
