Chapter 409: Asura Hack
“If you kill him, I will grant you freedom.”
Only Master Auberon could’ve said those words, and it wasn’t hard to find the target, either. Only three people were in the room — other than the freed prisoner — a high-level master, a woman, and naturally, the target.
Alex gazed at his enemy with squinted eyes and an unconcealable thirst for blood. He wore a faint smile, which provoked the man. Of course, Alex was already in his peak form, his Asura Arms stretching out from his torso.
He exuded [Wrath] from his body and swords, looking edgy but powerful.
Naked and weaponless, the prisoner called forth his wind and holiness. He was one of those rare cases that could hold two energies without royal blood coursing through his veins.
It was really a pity he had fallen to the dark side.
‘He’s using wind to move body… Impatient? No… He thinks we don’t have time and that he won’t enjoy the last battle before his death,’ Alex inferred inwardly as he analyzed the man before him.
It wasn’t like the prisoner had hope; he had none of it. Though he was momentarily blinded by that, he knew Auberon wouldn’t allow Alex to die, mainly due to the blood stench permeating the underground prison.
Many killings had already happened, and all of them looked fine, the prisoner wasn’t that stupid to blind himself further. So instead of becoming another victim of whatever had been happening here, the man immediately brought his powers.
Alex read him like a book, yet he stood silent.
That was because it was a time to adapt to his new level. Everything connected to him had advanced significantly, so Alex couldn’t just slash the man before his power manifested.
In a normal and life-threatening battle, Alex would’ve already slashed the man’s gust of winds. For now, these had been gathering around him, and his holiness outlined whatever was coalescing like ink.
At last, the holy wind became a unique bird from the Avander World. It resembled a parrot but with a more majestic aura as feathers extended behind in abundance. It also had a giant feather crown on its head.
It hailed its wings, then charged at Alex in an instant, carrying the prisoner straight at Alex. The bird hurled gusts of lethal wind at Alex while holiness around its master healed and slowly boosted his stamina.
Before that attack, Alex stood unfazed. His arms unfolded like petals of a blossoming flower, then he disappeared from the scene! Alex went through the bird and prisoner with his new, profound speed, not realizing his position.
“Uh… I am too fast…” he momentarily blinked, gazing at the cold prison. Before he turned around to face his opponent anew, the horrific screams slipped into Alex’s ears, telling him that his quick jump was not so bad.
In fact, it was splendid.
“Ahhhhhh!”
Alex’s swords cut through the man’s limbs in a perfect slash. It was exactly the same technique Alex had used unconsciously against Liam Wall. It was a little weaker as he just used it on his own.
[You have used Asura Hack.]
The man’s limbs fell like wasted meat, sputtering blood around. His torso dropped heavily, for the wind bird was also no longer here. Gusts of lethal wind were insignificant, to say nothing of the wind creation.
All fell before Alex’s might.
“Nice,” Meiya lifted her chin, commenting with a prideful and satisfied voice.
Her father was the same, gazing at the prisoner with chilling eyes. Yet his content about Alex’s skills and potential was unconcealable.
These two finished the rest, for Meiya could use more experience, and Auberon didn’t want any dead body and detached limbs dirtying his underground prison. After that, the trio left the peculiar place.
It was night, the wind was colder but still pleasant, and the chilling breeze could only brighten the mood.
“Now that you both returned to an appropriate level, I expect to see Stella and the girl you’ve chosen soon. The earlier, the better,” Auberon said before parting with his daughter and her beloved.
To his words, Alex immediately replied, “Don’t worry. I will deal with it fast enough. Thank you for such a gift, father-in-law.”
“I will need help from you as well, Alexander… Those barracks of yours can spare us some trouble,” Auberon sighed, his eyes on the sky as if he could see something more than just a cloudless carpet.
Alex nodded, naturally wanting to be an use to his in-laws. He couldn’t wait to see Auberon, Danielle, and more Winged People in his castle.
In this way, the visit to Winged Realm ended.

“Who will you choose as the fourth?” Meiya asked while clinging to Alex’s arm as both of them trod across the Deathwill Castle. It was night, so no one stopped them, and the light only bickered in the Main Garden and the barracks.
Alex looked outside, not avoiding her shining eyes, but thinking about the fourth girl who would level up just like them.
Since Alex never liked favoritism and knew that everyone would think this way if he chose someone, he decided to make a competition for the fourth spot.
And his family was in a slightly different mood. Since Meiya and Stella were out and Erin couldn’t leave the treasury yet, and Sara was also in the Dullahan Kingdom, the fourth girl could only be either Remia, Schnee, or Olivia.
Schnee could be excluded from the list since Alex planned to visit her home with her soon enough.
There was a chance that her clan would also help her level up to at least a commoner level, which was a three hundred, nothing to laugh or scoff at.
“Well, I have a plan,” Alex smiled, replying to Meiya with a mysterious smile. And as it was a night, and both of them had worked hard enough, Alex took Meiya’s hands, bringing her to his room.
A holy skill lit up the windows of the master room, then the doors, walls, and windows firmly blocked all tempting sounds that wanted to show off or perhaps cause some mischief in the castle.
