Chapter 1025 - Peace
"Wha—Master is here!" Rose came out of the castle, finding Alex with Letizia in the garden.
Before she could even move, Evelyn already appeared and pushed her to the side. "Big Brother Alex is here?"
"What are you doing?!" Rose narrowed her eyes.
Evelyn glared back and smirked.
Without even wasting their breath against each other, both leaped to the sky, falling straight on Alex.
"Master!"
"Big Brother!"
"You two…" Alex twitched his eyebrows and grabbed both of their heads, throwing them back to the sky. "Go back! Since when do you two become this unruly?"
"We are just missing Master so much." Rose pouted. "It"s been a few years already."
"Un." Evelyn nodded.
Suddenly, both noticed Letizia"s flushed expression and instantly understood what just happened.
Rose disappeared, going around and hugging Letizia from behind. Her hands slid on her body, grabbing more sensitive parts. "As expected, it seems Sister Letizia has begun her romance. Wait a minute, I shouldn"t call you Sister anymore. I need to call you Master"s wife or Mistress."
"Wha—" Letizia"s body shook with the sudden attack from Rose. "Y-you can still call me Sister. It"s been going for a while, and I have gotten used to it. Besides, Master just graced me with his favor, it was…"
"Yes, yes. This is what I like about Sister Letizia. She is so cute and shy." Rose smirked, planning to tease her more.
Meanwhile, Evelyn jumped again to Alex, hugging him tightly.
"Uh…I miss you, Big Brother Alex."
"Sorry, sorry. I won"t be going anywhere for the time being, and I am sorry for neglecting you this time. I hope you can forgive me."
"Uhm." She nodded. "So, what did Big Brother do to Sister Letizia? I want one too! That will be enough for now."
Alex smacked her head.
"Ouch! Did she get this?" She pouted. "It seems I need to learn S&M from Big Sister."
Alex shook his head helplessly. "So, you are learning that too?"
"Ah. Just a little and stop because I can"t understand why Big Sister Xingzhi said that those books are cultures." She tilted her head in confusion.
Alex let out a long sigh before whispering. "Maybe next time. Where there is no one around."
"…" Evelyn"s face blushed when she heard Alex"s voice right beside her ears and subconsciously released him.
Alex smiled, looking at these two.
Evelyn really changed. Back then, she was just a shy little girl, but she became bold now. Her short hair had turned into a long wavy hair tied into a ponytail. She wore a black T-s.h.i.+rt and short pants that made it easier to move.
She seemed to have used it since she left the Upper World and fell in love with this. Although she didn"t have a sword hanging on her waist, she looked like a wild and energetic swordswoman.
On the other hand, Rose simply had a one-piece blue dress that reached her knees. Unlike Evelyn, she didn"t move around that much in a battle, so it was fine to wear something like this. In fact, her movement was elegant according to Lin Xingzhi, making that blue dress perfectly match her blue hair every time they swayed together.
Still, Rose learned that her name was just like a beautiful flower in Alex"s hometown. After learning it from Lin Xingzhi, she wore a hairpin with the same rose as her name, but a blue one because she liked that color more.
Looking at these two, Alex couldn"t help but remember their last meeting. "You two have truly grown up."
Rose and Evelyn exchanged looks and made a big smile.
"Master, I have confidence in hitting you now." Rose pumped her fist.
"Really? I am looking forward to it." Alex smiled. "So, if you can"t hit me, what will the punishment be?"
"Eh?" Rose retreated a step, looking at Alex with a dumbfounded expression. "Master wants to hit me?"
"In a battle? Sure. In a normal daily life like this? If it"s not necessary, I won"t." Alex shrugged.
"So, you will still hit me." Rose pouted.
"That"s the price for talking big." Alex smiled and patted her head. "I will prepare your punishment first."
"Why are you talking like you have already won? Isn"t this also talking big?" She complained.
"Haha… You should learn how to be shameless. They win much more than your average person." Alex laughed. "Anyway, I will be waiting for your challenge. I won"t pull my punch though."
"That"s right. You shouldn"t talk big, Rose. How about I spank your b.u.t.t on behalf of Big Brother?" She smiled.
"I heard that it would become bigger if you continuously do that. Knowing you, you won"t hold back every slap, so no!"
"Bigger is better for various reasons. I just can"t grow mine…" She sighed while looking at Rose"s b.u.t.t and chest that were slightly bigger than her. "Ugh. I always thought of you as a younger sister, but it seems I was wrong."
"As expected, I am glad that I didn"t partic.i.p.ate in that lesson. I didn"t become overly conscious about this small thing." She nodded with a serious expression.
"…" Alex shook his head helplessly. "How about you three fight me together? I want to see your progress. Well, mine too."
"That"s good!" Rose and Evelyn nodded their head at the same time.
"How is it?" Alex turned to Letizia. "I don"t think this can be considered as a breach of Universe Oath. In fact, I really want to cancel the contract."
"Please no." She shook her head. "This is like a bond between you and me. And it"s also considered my commitment. I will be by your side."
"Well, thanks. Maybe you should search for another goal." Alex smiled. "I don"t mind your current self, but I don"t want you to act like a doll or a maid because you are not any of those. You are a family. If a family doesn"t have a goal, they will lose their chance to progress. Of course, it doesn"t mean to be now, but I would like you to have a goal…Not for me, but yourself."
Letizia thought for a moment and nodded. "I understand. I will try to do it."
She realized that Alicia and Firia could work that hard because they had a goal in their heart. They might want to be a peerless expert that could be remembered as Alicia Sirius and Firia Sirius instead of Alex"s wives.
Ultimately, it might be for Alex, but they had a clear goal to achieve without involving him in the process.
Sherry found that as well and decided to become the princess of the Beast World, becoming an expert by herself.
Letizia smiled after thinking all this. "Thank you, Master."
"How about calling me Alex?"
"I think I will pa.s.s. I have grown accustomed to this. Besides, it"s like something special for me."
"Is that so? I won"t say much then."
Rose and Evelyn pouted when the two entered their own world again.
Rose raised her hand. "I have a dream too! I heard that there wasn"t a single Bow G.o.d that reached G.o.d King Stage, so I want to be the first one."
"That"s a good dream. I will be rooting for you." Alex smiled while patting her head.
"Well, my first dream was rejected…" She looked down.
"Really? What kind of dream? I mean, you can dream everything you want."
"I want to have a family too like Master, but my other half needs to be stronger than Master."
Evelyn blinked her eyes a few times. "Ehm, you do know what Big Brother"s current goal is, right?"
"…" She tilted her head in confusion.
"No one told you about that?" Evelyn became speechless. She whispered something to her.
Rose was taken aback by it. "No wonder it was easily rejected."
"Well, you can dream anything you want. Even if you can"t find it in this place, you can look around in another universe. At the very least, we don"t know the extent of this universe, so there must be someone that suits you perfectly. But all in all, make sure you two love each other and know that you won"t betray each other in any condition." Alex smiled.
"Un!" She nodded. "I wonder if I should be like Master…"
Rose glanced at Evelyn and Letizia back and forth.
"Eh?" Alex shook his head helplessly. "I will support what you want to do. Just make sure you don"t regret it."
"I understand."
"Anyway, my dream is to beat you at least once," Rose interjected while pouting. They were ignoring her again.
"Hoho, that"s a challenge, I guess." Alex nodded.
Suddenly, Lin Xingzhi"s voice resounded in everyone"s ears as she appeared behind Rose and circled her hand around her neck. "Since you want to beat him, I can offer you a course on how to beat him. Of course, since you didn"t say in what way, I can teach you the sure way."
"Oi, oi. What are you teaching to a kid?" Alex waved his hand, planning to chop her head to stop her.
However, Lin Xingzhi"s hand grabbed his waist with her max speed and pulled him to her before she kissed him.
"Ho?" Anya also appeared beside them, observing the kiss. After twenty seconds, Lin Xingzhi finally released him, and Anya commented. "Hoho, twenty seconds, fifty hits. Even though G.o.d Rank Expert can fly so fast, this one can"t be too fast if you want to make it enjoyable. Besides, Alex seemed to be able to fight back thirty-six times which meant she won."
Anna appeared behind Anya and smacked her head. "What the heck are you saying…"
Evelyn blinked her eyes a few times before nodding in understanding. "I see. There seem to be more options to defeat Big Brother Alex."
"Haha… I really like this girl." Firia smirked and walked beside Lin Xingzhi.
"Want to be this girl mentor?" Lin Xingzhi turned to her with a sly smile.
"That"s a tempting offer." Firia played along before Alicia appeared right beside them as if looking at two idiotic perverts.
*Stare*
"You both…May I know what you two are planning to do?" Alicia asked coldly.
"Right, tell her. It"s hard to have another one that can set them straight. To think there is another one beside Anya who becomes like this." Anna supported her as she was tired of setting Anya and Lin Xingzhi straight when they joked around.
"Haha…" Alex only brushed this matter off with a laugh. He just appreciated the sight before him. He was glad that everyone could get along with each other just fine since normally, multiple wives would invite problems if they didn"t get along. At the very least, they seemed to understand that and avoided any conflict.
Hearing her laugh, they couldn"t really say anything. Even Lin Xingzhi released Evelyn while looking away.
"Anyway, we should start preparing the equipment." Alex smiled.
"Right! Let"s have a barbecue!" Lin Xingzhi raised her hands. "Bring all the meat! Don"t forget to have dragon meat. They are delicious if you have a perfect herb to pair them with! And I won"t forgive any ingredients below Rank 8!"
"I have prepared everything." Korzan walked to the garden while shaking his head helplessly. Besides him were two women. They both bowed their heads to Alex. "My King. If you don"t mind, I have brought my two wives with me…Of course, I have asked them not to spread the rumor about you around."
"Hoho, Korzan brought his two wives. You were dead in the past, so you never saw him married." Lin Xingzhi nodded while observing the two.
The first one had a half-human body, while the bottom was a snake tail. The second woman had a blue wing behind her back while her hands were a bit sharper than that of a human.
"My name is Tresta, I am from the Lamia Tribe. I am honored to meet you, Your Majesty."
"I am Milfel, a Wind Harpy Spirit. It"s my honor to meet you, Your Majesty."
"I don"t mind. The more the merrier! Nice to meet you two." Alex then asked. "That"s right. Where"s Zark?"
"There." Korzan pointed at Zark, who was preparing the grills.
"I mean, if you want to have a party, it"s useless if you don"t set up this." Zark looked at them with a serious expression before pointing his finger at the camera that had been set up. "How about taking a picture first while I am setting up the grills?"
"Ah, yes. The serious and reliable guy."
