Chapter 1088: Searching (1/2)
After the war ended, Alex was standing in front of the Beast God. Behind him, Lin Xingzhi, Sullivan, and the others, including his wives, stood next to each other, showing their status. Of course, Sherry was among one of them.
Alex cupped his hand politely and said, ”I would like to thank the Beast God for taking care of my wife.”
”No, no. It's my job.” The Beast God hurriedly replied. It felt awkward since it was their first meeting.
Glancing at Sherry, he knew what to do. ”Since everything is our fault to begin with, I will hand over the right of Array God's territories to you.”
*Gasp—* The princes and princesses dropped their jaws, never expecting Alex to hand the right just like that. To be honest, if Eulja moved from the start with their full force, the Array God would be extinguished even without their help.
Besides, only the Beast God could kill his opponent while the other Rank 2 Gods were killed by Eulja. Hence, it was kind of inappropriate to get everything.
However, it had a different meaning to Alex. He wanted to use this chance to show the worth of Sherry in his eyes. She was priceless. Even all the territories containing tens of billions of Spirit Crystals were not worth it than a single life.
”However, we have another enemy besides the Array God. It's a past enemy, so I would like to search for a clue in the Array God's temple for a while. Just lend me that building for a few weeks. You can even start stationing your people in that world.” Alex smiled.
”Please don't request something like that. We have been the ones receiving the favor. It's just something minor, if you even want the entire planet, I would have given it to you.” The Beast God scratched his head, feeling embarrassed.
At the same time, arresting his disappointing son in his room during the whole war seemed to be the right choice because he wouldn't ruin this talk.
”In that case, I and the others will clean up the process and start the investigation as soon as possible.”
”Ye-yes.” Even though Alex was only a Rank 5 God, he felt like Alex had been the one in charge of this conversation from the beginning. It might be due to the people behind him, but Alex's aura alone really made many words stuck in his throat.
”Then I won't impose you any longer.” Alex cupped his hand before snapping his finger, creating a Teleportation Array below them.
”…” When they disappeared, they didn't know why but their mind felt refreshed in that instant.
Still, the Beast God let out a long sigh. Despite winning so much, this might be the last time he talked with the Spirit God. After all, he had delivered something worth more than one person, albeit it was only in ordinary people's eyes.
For those who knew about the Spirit God's true personality, they were worthless compared to one of his wives or family members.
”All of you. Let's clean up the battlefield and return.” The Beast God's voice was tired, melting his sons and daughters' hearts.
”Yes, Father.” They cupped their hands and answered in unison.
Meanwhile, the Cat Princess could only look at the horizon, thinking about Sherry and Alex. Sherry had been under her care this whole time, so there was still a lingering attachment to her, albeit she believed it was not possible to meet her anymore unless the opportunity arrived.
…
As soon as they arrived, Alex was greeted by Zerah. She had a pair of thunder wings behind her. ”Your Majesty.”
”How is the situation?” Alex smiled and nodded.
”All Rank 2 Gods have gone. We are starting to clean up all the planets around this place, making sure there was no chain of revenge from this place. If we continue at this rate, we should be able to finish within five days.”
Alex thought for a moment and turned around. ”Anyone want to fight?”
Surprisingly, all his spirits and wives, except Lin Xingzhi, raised their hands. The Five Guardians, except for William and Carissa, decided to accompany them.
”How about you, Lilda?”
”If I may be selfish, I would like to take a look at Array God's home to check about his array books.” Lilda cupped her hand politely, requesting to be allowed to follow Alex.
”Alright.” Alex nodded in agreement before turning to Sullivan. ”What about you?”
”I am not sure about this, Your Majesty. I started to like Queen Sherry after accompanying her. If she goes out, I will do my best to protect her. Of course, if Your Majesty has a different plan, I will comply.”
”No, it's fine. I have learned from Lin Xingzhi that you have been teaching her many things. I would like you to continue doing so. For now, I don't need a bodyguard or something since I want to progress as quickly as possible.”
”I understand. I shall protect her with my life on the line.” Sullivan bowed politely.
Alex's vision then returned to Zerah. ”Call a few people from N Squad to investigate the building. The rest can continue handling the enemies.”
”Yes, Sir.” Zerah politely cupped her hand.
The next second, all those who planned to go disappeared, following Zerah since she knew about the whole situation.
”William, Carissa, you don't mind helping the investigation, right? Or you want to recover your power first?”
”This old bone is strong. Although my energy hasn't been restored, my physical body is good enough. I am planning to rejoin the battle after two or three days,” answered William with confidence.
”Ah, I am planning to sed—Ahem, accompany Your Majesty.”
