Chapter 1011 - You Are The Messiah
Chapter 1011 - You Are The Messiah
The next day, when the guards had begun their activities and the royalties were about to wake up, they were disturbed by those who had found a huge change in their pond.
"Your Highness!" Both the prince and the princess had their room slammed open as soldiers informed them what they just witnessed.
Not believing what they said, they went toward the pond and found water filled their pond.
"What just happened?" They exchanged looks, but none of them couldn't think anything.
They were in complete shock from what they just saw.
"Is the water safe?" The second princess, Mileda, asked all the soldiers in the area.
There were already more than fifty soldiers gathering in this place, so one of them answered her. "No, Your Highness."
"We can't test it easily. There might be poison in this water. We still have a royal doctor, right? Ask him to get here." She commanded.
"Y-yes." The soldiers immediately followed her order and rushed to get the doctor.
Meanwhile, the prince, Xivaxi, looked down while touching his chin, falling into deep thought.
Mileda gradually sensed him and turned around with a weird expression. "Brother? Do you know anything about this?"
"I am not sure, but aren't you the one negotiating with him?" Xivaxi asked with a weird expression.
"What?!" Mileda was dumbfounded. Although it was true that she talked with Alex yesterday, but he was just one person. How could he bring this much water in a night and without anyone noticing?
However, she remembered what Alex said earlier and repeated it in a low voice. "Come back tomorrow and we can talk about this. I don't care who is talking to me tomorrow. Don't tell me…"
"Yes. I think he is the one." Xivaxi had a complicated feeling right now. On one hand, he was pretty disappointed that Mileda couldn't catch his heart. Seeing such a powerful person would surely bring one's greed to possess him, so it was no wonder that Xivaxi felt a bit of regret.
On the other hand, he was worried about his intention. No matter what he said, water was indeed a necessity. But if Alex tried to do something that would be detrimental to the kingdom, he needed to find a way to expel him.
The problem would be how?
Xivaxi fell into deep thought, followed by Mileda. They exchanged looks as if they were trying to figure out something.
"Should I come to him again?"
Xivaxi didn't answer immediately.
"I have agreed to build this kingdom again with you no matter what we need to sacrifice. If this can solve our immediate problem, I don't care what will happen to me." She looked at him with a serious expression.
"But he said he doesn't care who will come to him, right? Doesn't this imply that he wants the one in charge to come?"
"We both are in charge of this kingdom right now. No, I should say, there is no king in this country for the time being. And the citizens here haven't known about our defeat." She shook her head helplessly. "If I am there alone, maybe one mistake can lead to another. But if you are there or with me, it won't happen. Since I have enough authority, how about trusting me?"
Xivaxi pinched the bridge of his nose. The matter wasn't as simple as that, considering the other party didn't have interest in Mileda.
However, it was indeed true that the talk might be a bit easier if he talked to a beautiful woman like Mileda.
After several considerations, he finally agreed to her.
The doctor came before the two could act, and his voice resounded in their ears. "Do you need anything from me, your highness?"
Xivaxi and Mileda turned around, staring at the doctor for a moment.
Without anyone reacting, Xivaxi slowly made his way toward the pond and dipped down his hand to the water and drank it directly.
"Your Highness?!" The group shouted in confusion. They never expected to see Xivaxi scoop the water.
"I need to test it myself since I am the strongest here. This is my responsibility." He stopped everyone from reacting and tried to check his body.
At the same time, the doctor checked his pulse to see if there was something wrong.
"The water tastes normal. There is no weird smell or whatsoever. No, I should say that the water is a bit more refreshing than normal water, but I don't think I have felt something wrong with my body. Doctor?" Xivaxi explained everything he felt right now.
The soldiers began to feel relieved.
But the doctor shook their hearts once again as he started shaking while saying. "This…This…is impossible."
"What is happening to my brother, Doctor? We need to find an antidote immediately." Mileda panicked and looked around.
To everyone's surprise, Xivaxi raised his hand, stopping them.
"Brother?" She furrowed her eyebrows.
"This…I have gotten stronger. Although it's not that visible right now, I feel like if I continuously consume the water, I will be able to reach Father's level in a year." Xivaxi widened his eyes in shock. He never thought that this was not normal water but magic water.
Obviously, Alex, the culprit, didn't know any of these. He simply knew that the water came from another planet, but he didn't know what kind of planet.
Even if Lin Xingzhi was with him, she couldn't explain it as well.
Little did they know that the planet was a Divine World. Just like the Spirit Stone, the lowest form of Spirit Crystal, the water had also been radiated by an enormous amount of Spiritual Energy. It wouldn't affect stronger people like Martial Master or above, but they were just a Foundation Rank.
This kind of water could be considered magic water for them because the energy that the water contained could strengthen the basic function of their body.
However, the moment he knew about this, he dumbfoundedly looked at the pond in shock. He then turned around, staring at Mileda. "This…Might be the thing we need to rebuild the kingdom. We can get stronger by prioritizing those who have the potential to fight among the citizens in this small city.
"We can supply them with this magic water and raise another army. After getting enough strength, we will be able to take over the capital and rebuild the entire kingdom."
Mileda could also understand what he implied. No need to say it anymore. Whatever they needed to do, they must get Alex.
Her heart skipped a beat as she looked at the magic water once again. That amount of magic water was certainly something amazing, especially if Alex could give them without batting an eye.
This made her resolve even bigger.
She took a deep breath before leaving them. "Continue the investigation. I will talk with our Supreme Guest."
Alex, who had sensed the commotion, didn't know what they were talking about, but he understood their excitement.
"I wonder if I have the same ears as Senior Sister Song Yu, can I hear them?" Alex muttered before sensing the same person as yesterday came again. Before she knocked, Alex already said, "Come in."
Mileda's body shook and carefully opened the door, finding Alex was looking at the town from the window.
His appearance looked like someone who wished for freedom and didn't want to be bound by anything.
This made her a bit hesitant, but whatever the case, she needed to try.
She politely bowed her head. "I would like to thank you for your gift, Sir Nyx. I don't know how to thank you."
Without a doubt, Alex already showed his sincerity before the negotiation even began. This made her realize how mysterious Alex's real status was.
"So, you will be negotiating with me?" Alex narrowed his eyes.
"Yes. As the second princess, I have enough authority to make a deal with you." She slowly took off her top, confusing Alex again.
Alex waved his hand and stopped her movement while asking. "What are you doing?"
This time, it was Mileda's turn to be shocked. There was no trace of emotion in Alex's eyes, so she didn't know whether he was angry or anything.
"I…I am just negotiating with you. My instructor said that it's best to negotiate in bed, so you will have a fresh head for negotiation. That's why I am going to serve you first before we can start negotiating." She honestly replied.
It was a bit extreme, but he couldn't find the doubt in her eyes.
[Pfft. This country never fails to amuse me. Negotiation on the bed?]
'I don't know if I should be surprised or regretted my choice to come to this planet only to find this kind of culture.'
[How can you say that? This is the kingdom of culture.]
'This culture…I don't need it.' Alex sighed inwardly before shaking his head. "I don't have any plan in doing that."
"This…" She looked down, wondering if she displeased him or something. Or maybe, Alex had a unique taste or something? Normally, not many people would reject something like this. Even if they were rejected, they would become flustered.
At the same time, this was also the first time for the princess herself to do this because they usually only used maids to entertain their guests.
She tried to come up with a plan where Alex would agree.
Alex scratched the back of his head and decided to explain his intention. "As you know, I am a wanderer. It's been a few years since I returned from my journey, so I don't have much knowledge about this country and other countries.
"What I want is the information update and I will supply you with your necessities. That's the trade I want. There is nothing more to it, so you don't need to do it. That's why I want to meet someone who can make this decision."
"…" She gasped as if she had done him wrong. She couldn't help but think Alex was a fool for throwing that much magic water, but if he could do something like that, he might have a huge amount of resources that he could trade.
Since Alex didn't plan to do this, she unwillingly fixed her clothes and nodded her head, a bit embarrassed by her earlier appearance. "I understand. I, as the second princess, can guarantee you that you can get any information as long as it's not detrimental to this kingdom."
"Good. This is better. First, tell me in detail, what do you need?" Alex asked.
She thought for a moment, listing all sorts of necessities. Unlike yesterday, she came up with a more detailed explanation. "We need a substantial amount of magic water and food, but since you have provided a huge amount of magic water, we can give you information first before further negotiation."
"Magic water?" Alex narrowed his eyes. He just gave normal water, but why did this woman call it magic water? "Anyway, it's fine. The water is just a token of sincerity."
Unknowingly, his doubt was misunderstood by the princess. She thought that Alex couldn't see powerful water like this as magic water and treated it like normal water. If that were the case, Alex's status might be far higher than she could imagine.
There would be a chance that Alex could be considered one of the strongest people in this world. What made him more amazing was the fact that he had something like this in possession.
For someone at this level, Alex must have a magical way to transport all the things they had, elevating his status even further.
In fact, it already reached a ridiculous point. Mileda even thought of him as someone who God sent.
She gradually kneeled with her head touching the ground. "Your excellency, Mileda has eyes but can't see someone with a high status like you is in front of me. Please forgive my rudeness. I will do anything to ask for your forgiveness."
Alex was even more bewildered, wondering what's wrong with the people's heads in this world. 'This world is crazy.'
[You are the messiah. Hahahahaha.]
'Shut up!'
