Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 462: Lilian

462 Lilian

They were flying nonstop toward the Renner City. The journey was a quiet one as even Lilian did not utter a single word to Alex.

And after around three days, they have arrived. Alex was surprised at first as this neural city hosted both races. He did not see that many elves back in the capital city, but in this, almost half of them were elves.

Shelka immediately asked her two bodyguards to investigate the area while they were resting in the city.

Alex just strolled around as he was not planning to reveal anything for the elves, so he only followed their orders passively. As for Shelka, she immediately informed everyone of the plan as soon as she received the investigation result.

Lilian was very proactive about this mission. She wanted to forget about Alex just for a moment.

When they started their infiltration, Alex could see many weak signs of energy, symbolizing weak elves or humans after bad treatment in this place. They were planning to release them after they destroyed the base anyway, so they just ignored them for the time being.

Inside, they started killing all the people involved. It turned out the slave trader was an Elf himself. He was cooperating with humans in this city to make a killing. The human slaves were traded in the Elven Territory while the Elves were going to the Human Territory, whether to be a sex slave or labor worker.

Surprisingly, there was no change of expression in Shelka's face. It was like she already knew all along. And the most shocking thing he found was how easy this mission was.

He did not know Shelka subordinates' abilities, but they only needed a few hours to investigate them thoroughly. He thought even Nelson would need more time than them. So, he thought they must have prior information about them. They even knew about their secret passage for escaping. That was why he thought this was a scheme.

After killing the slave trader and all his subordinates, they then proceeded to help the slaves. It seemed they were bound to a Full Loyalty Heavenly Oath. They were tortured to force them and Most of them could not stand the pain, so they made the Oath.

Some of them even died in the process. While there were some that managed to hold on until now, they were not in a good state.

However, after killing the Slave Trader and his subordinates, they were freed from the contract. The Slavery had already been banned by both Human Race and Elven Race because of the cruelty. Even so, there were still many Slave Traders outside and they usually occupied a neutral city like this.

They were trading all the goods underground to avoid any suspicion. Just like a rat underground, they were hard to catch, so it was just a waste of resources to purge them as even more Slave Traders would appear. They could only make missions to purge them to minimize the cost.

"Since we have finished our mission, we should go to the Elven Kingdom first as it is only a few days away from this place. And I have informed my family that I will bring two guests with me." Shelka explained.

Alex had no complaint while Lilian also followed her because of Alex. Meanwhile, Alex was planning to level up someone with his UR exp card if something went wrong. So, he was ready.

After a few days, Alex could see a huge tree that even pierced the sky. Alex wondered why they always had a huge tree? There was a kind of wooden castle on the huge tree. This time, not only was there a castle, he could see many lights hanging on the tree, making this tree even grander than the World Tree in the lower world.

Alex activated his Spirit Eyes and found this tree had a boundless vitality. In fact, it was absorbing the Spiritual Energy inside the ground before releasing a kind of miasma that was filled with energy to the air from its leaves. The tree would purify the energy and make it richer. This might be the reason why they could have 7-Star Tier 6 mage as their leader.

He then looked at the town. All the housing was made of wood, but Alex could see that the wood was not ordinary. It might be able to stand a Martial Master or Grandmaster attack. He felt this town was not a town, but a fortress to protect the tree.

"Fufu, magnificent, isn't it?" Shelka looked at Alex.

"Indeed." He just calmly replied to her. He was planning his escape route when they visited the Elven King by looking at the giant tree's energy. Ultimately, he was convinced that he could only escape by using his teleportation array.

Not long after, they landed in the town. She looked at Lilian and Alex, "We need to get formal clothes for both of you first since we are going to meet the ruler of this race."

She looked at the casual outfit of Alex and Lilian, so she thought about dressing them up a little bit.

"Belle, you should go back first. I have informed my royal father that we are coming there tomorrow, but I want you to explain it more clearly before we arrive. Dana should be enough to escort me." She commanded. Dana was the maid who knew about the Supreme and her scheme while Belle was the special escort coming from her father. She knew her father wanted her to keep close eyes on her, so she made her leave.

With such a reason, Belle had no reason to refuse. She nodded and disappeared.

Meanwhile, Shelka asked the others to get good clothes for the meeting. Alex had no trouble with this as he had many clothes from the Acacia Kingdom. However, when the night came, Alex heard someone knocking at his door.

He activated his Spirit Eyes to see who it was and said. "Come in."

When the door opened, Alex could see Lilian with her usual outfit. She looked at Alex while biting her lips.

"Why? Why did you leave the guild? Although back then, the guild master forced you, you should know he was forced by the situation." Lilian looked very anguished.

"You know nothing." Alex simply answered as he closed his eyes.

"Why? You said you wouldn't leave the guild easily. Just because of this, you leave the guild? Are you planning to come back?" She asked, hoping Alex would answer 'yes.' But reality immediately struck her hard. Alex simply answered with,

"No."

"Please, just look at my face and forgive the guild master. Please go back to the guild."

"Are you also one of them? The one that wants me to come back just because of my ability? That's right, all the worlds are the same. You won't be respected if you don't have money, power, or status." Alex shook his head in disappointment. If he lost it all today, maybe only his Spirits, disciple, and Family that will still accept him.

If he showed all of his flaws, his enemies might pick it and attack him or even his 'Friends' might backstab him or leave him. He could see that Lilian was someone like Song Yu or Putri, they could be considered his friend, but he could not shake the picture where they left him if he did not have anything.

"N-no. I am not."

"Then tell me, If I come to the guild with nothing, will you ever look at me? The answer is no. I will merely be one of the guild members in your eyes. If not because of my power, I will be no one." Alex said.

"I-" Lilian could not answer that one. "No one is born strong… And even without power, you can still become stronger and stronger. You will meet all the people in the guild, eventually including me and at some point, I… I will…"

She could not continue. Alex sighed. "That's enough. If all you want to talk about is this, then please leave, I need to prepare myself for tomorrow."

Lilian bit her lips as she let out tears from her eyes. She suddenly took off her skirt and shirt, revealing her lingerie.

Alex furrowed his eyebrows, looking at all this sight. If she stripped in front of others, they might get excited about it. From her beautiful hair, pretty face, two seductive mountains and beautiful skin. It was just Alex could only see this as a dumb move. He did not know why she did this, but he became more disappointed.

She even took out her bra and panties before using her hands to cover all the important parts. Tears were still streaming on her face before dropping to the ground.

"I… I am still a Virgin… You can use me however you want but… please come back to the Empyrean Guild…" It took all her energy to say that. She was clearly shaken by this.

Suddenly, Sherry came out of Alex's body and struck her with her palm. But before she could do that, Alex grabbed her tails, making her startled as all her furs stood up.

"Gya!"

Lilian was shocked to see a small monster like her suddenly came out of Alex's body. She even forgot this whole thing for a second.

"Master? My instinct has been tingling this whole time. I shall enforce justice for you and remove this woman." Sherry complained as she held her tails, looking at him pitifully.

"Go back, I will handle this by myself." Alex sighed.

"But Master, I have received the Holy Mission from Mistress Alicia and Mistress Firia. She is clearly trying to seduce you, so I shall purge her according to the mission. I had missed that Letizia when she was harassing you, but luckily she had reformed. But this time, I need to make her leave you. I can feel you are very disappointed with this.

"She might be a 6-Star and I am a 1-Star, but I still can fight." Sherry continuously punched the air with her cute paws, showing him she was pumped to fight and repel the evil.

Alex simply grabbed her tail again.

"Gya!" Sherry was electrocuted once again when Alex grabbed her tails. She turned her head to Alex again with her whole body shaking. "Master."

"As I said, go back already. Or I will punish you later." Alex sighed.

Sherry wanted to complain again but ultimately came back inside his body with a sad expression. Her show this time was canceled by Alex.

He then looked at the naked Lilian with a poker face. "I have said to you that I won't get poached by women, right? What is the point you are doing now?"

"I… I don't have another way to convince you." She bit her lips.

"The moment I left, the possibility was already zero," Alex said. "You don't need to waste your time on me. I won't go back. It is not a matter if I hate you or the guild. Besides, I already have wives and I don't like to sleep with another woman besides my wives. So it would be best if you wear your clothes and leave the room."

Alex was ruthless with his words. She clenched her fists as she said. "You… I never thought you were someone like this. I thought you were a good guy, not someone who was ungrateful. I misplace my trust, I… I hate you…"

"Good. Since you hate me, then wear your clothes and leave." Alex said while adding inwardly. 'It is good if you hate me. You can be considered a friend of mine in this world, albeit it starts from benefit. It will be better if you don't know the real reason.'

She grabbed all her clothes and left the room in tears.

Alex closed his eyes and sighed.

The next day, all of them went to the palace. Lilian kept glancing at him while biting her lips. Even so, they were still visiting the palace.
