329 Mithra (1/2)

\”!!!\”

After noticing the power of Alex's brand new intent. She immediately released her full power to break this Seven Stars Cut.

\”Boom!\”

Alex looked at the female undead. After using her full power, she was able to stop his attack completely. But it also attracted the attention of his spirits as Leoz immediately appeared in front of him.

Leoz was ready to charge upon her, but the woman suddenly said, \”You… pass…\”

Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

\”Pu-!\”

\”Pu?\” Alex and the spirits were confused. They did not know what she meant by 'Pu.'

\”Pu…pu hahahaha!\” The female undead suddenly laughed. And surprisingly, she laughed like a human. There was no such a trace like her broken speech from earlier.

\”Hahaha… I can't act like this anymore. It is really hard not to laugh this whole time.\” She said with a normal speech.

\”You…\”

\”Haha… sorry sorry. I just want to see what kind of person I have been waiting for.\”

\”You have been waiting for me?\” Alex remembered that she said he had been waiting for him before they fought.

\”To think that bastard Maxwell made me wait for this kid that is even more monstrous than he was. This is really a laughing matter.\”

\”?!\” Alex was surprised to hear his master name in her mouth. He asked, \”You know my master?\”

\”So, he is your master, no wonder. But, did he never introduce me?\” She asked.

There was only a confused look on his face. \”Who are you?\”

\”I am Mithra. I am his friend, or you can also say I am indebted to him, so I agreed to wait for you and give you the thing he wanted to give you, Space Plate. Unfortunately, because of many events, I lost that technique.\”

\”Mithra?\” Alex was startled. It was the name that his master told him. He remembered that his master gave her the Space Plate and gave Skewes the Spatial Door. \”Master has talked about you.\”

\”Oh. He did!\” Mithra looked at Alex's confused look and laughed again. \”Well, seeing your confused look, I shall explain everything from the start. But it will take a bit of time, so I think the people beside you need to chill down first.\”

She looked at Anna and the others who were still clenching their weapon. \”How scary. I just want to test him. And he is far more monstrous than that man.\”

Alex sighed. He said to his spirits, \”It is fine.\”

Anna and the others finally dropped their weapon.

Alex finally understood why she could enter the barrier. But he needed to confirm it first, \”You… have master's token, right?\”

\”Oh, you mean this?\” She suddenly took out two tokens. The two tokens were the same as Alex's token. \”They are my token and Skewes Token. I am sure you also know about Skewes since you have heard my name.\”

Alex nodded.

\”Then, I will start from the time where Maxwell continued his journey. After we got separated from him, Skewes and I were clueless since we could not follow him because we were too weak.

\”So, rather than becoming his burden, Skewes and I chose to stay in this continent. I found out that Skewes chose to settle down with his wife while I was planning to roam through another continent.

\”Of course, at my own pace. After that, I started roaming through the Northern Continent and becoming a Martial King as well as a Sword King. Unfortunately, when I became a peak Martial King, I opened a pandora box.

\”I was chased by many Martial Kings and even Martial Emperors after that. I could only escape to this place, and luckily, they came to this place. I used a forbidden technique, and it made me like this.

\”Nonetheless, I could butcher all those people with the forbidden technique. And finally turned them into undead like the ones you have killed. All of them were former Martial Kings and Martial Emperors, you know. But I could only turn them into undead at Martial Lord level.

\”Albeit, it has been a few thousand years for me in this place. Even I got a little bored, so I tested as well as teased you a little bit. Anyway… I could finally see someone that is far more monstrous than him. I am pretty satisfied with that.

\”Anyway, here is the reward.\” She took out a green box, but the box seemed to be only a half.

Alex received it with good care. He rolled the box around to see what kind of box it was. He even used his Spirit Eyes to look at it. But nothing seemed to stand out.

\”Hehe… Because of the pursuit, I broke this one, but I was sure no one from the people who pursued me got it. So, it should still be on this continent.\”

\”What is the use of this box?\” Alex asked.

\”There is a trial in the Northern Continent. And this box is the key to that trial. The trial will be held every hundred years. As for the specific year… don't ask me. I have been caged up in this place for so long, so I have lost track of time.

\”And the people in this continent do not know how important this box is, so even if you get the other half, you would be fine. But, make sure no one from the Northern Continent knows it, if not… Haiz, you can imagine it yourself.\”
