Chapter 108: Joy
108 Joy
[Box of Time Acquired]
Alex immediately took it out. He scanned it with the system.
[Box of Time (UR)
Description: A Life treasure of the former Time G.o.d. It can seal the time of something inside, whether it is a human, animal, or item]
Alex felt overjoyed when he saw the treasure in his hand. He immediately stored it again, afraid of breaking it.
He then checked another item he got from the dark- I mean, dart roulette. Darn, that gacha type cheated him three darts. If the roulette wheel hear what Alex thought, It sure will reply to him with "You are the one who was too dumb"
[Gintu Sword
Description: A Martial Grandmaster rank sword]
Alex was surprised, but it was to be expected. The UR itself was that OP, the SR one must be the same.
He got a Grandmaster rank Sword. That was a very powerful boost for the current him and it was from the system.
He took out the sword from System"s inventory. Though he can feel that the sword sharpness and the power within it, He really can"t understand this sword. It might be because his present level was too low.
He stored it again in the inventory. Finally, after a while, his joyful moment has pa.s.sed. He got out of his bed and left the room. He will visit Alicia. But there is somewhere that he wanted to go first.
"Bang!"
"Alex?"
"Teacher, I miss you"
The dean stood up from his chair and hugged him. "I"m glad that you are alright. Don"t you know how worried I am when you are missing? If not that la.s.s telling me that. I will search for you at the end of the world."
"Teacher…" Alex"s heart got warmth, "Teacher, I"m sorry. I…I…got a Master"
"Master?"
"Yes, actually it started from there…"
Alex told him the whole story. How he becomes the ascender disciple...
"I see. Then, it was a joyous occasion" The dean smiled
"Teacher is okay with me got a new one beside you?"
"Why would I be angry? There is no problem with that. As long as I know he is good to you. I am satisfied with that"
"Teacher…"
"Haha… alright, why don"t you visit that la.s.s? She is going to happy if you visit her"
"Actually Teacher. I have temporarily cured her. Master gave me a treasure to stop her time. Within that time, I can search for her cure." Alex didn"t tell him the whole truth. How can he tell him he got a Box of Time from the system.
"I see, I am happy for you"
"Thank you, Teacher" Alex thanked him. After that, he hesitated, "Teacher… Actually, I am here for two matters"
"Oh, what is it?"
"First, I wanted to drop out of this academy"
"Haiz… it finally comes."
"Teacher?" Alex was confused, is he expecting this?
"A week ago, that la.s.s, Firia also have the same idea with you. She wanted to drop out of this academy. I can"t persuade her back then. I am sure if young la.s.s Alicia also got up. She will drop out too. But now you also come to me."
Alex looks down.
"Actually, there is another course that you can choose."
Alex looked at him.
"How about graduating? Since you already reached rank 6, I am sure others would also love to see you graduate from the academy and they don"t mind if you take your graduation earlier.
"I see, I will ask about it from Alicia and Firia first Since I can"t spend much time with them."
"Alright, though I"m sure that they will also agree with this"
Alex nodded, "Oh, right Teacher. It was rank 7, not 6"
"What? You become rank 7?"
Alex nodded embarra.s.sedly.
"Haha, you will be surpa.s.sing me soon. All the reason to get your graduation" The dean laughed happily. "Alright, you can ask their opinion first. What is the second matter?"
"The second matter…Actually, I wanted to borrow your workshop"
"Oh, sure. But for what?"
"I wanted to make that…" Alex was embarra.s.sed "ding…rings"
Though Alex spoke in a very low voice, The dean knew what he means, "Haha… Sure sure, Use them as you fit. Even if that place destroyed, as long as you succeed in making them, It would be fine"
Alex was very embarra.s.sed.
"Haha… I will go to young Raymond and young Carollus place. I am not a petty man, I will share this joyous occasion with them" he said that and left.
Alex was speechless. But even more, he was embarra.s.sed. He went inside the workshop hurriedly. He already got the metal from his master. There are many raw materials in his treasury. Alex took out one of the metal. According to his knowledge. This metal was called Queen Jade Metal. Though it was not a high-rank material, it was very rare. It might be rarer than some high-rank metal. But there is one particular thing why he chose this metal. It was because this metal was very beautiful. It was more beautiful than a diamond.
Alex then proceeds to make the ring. Though he wasn"t really a forger. He can make something this simple. Though it took him a couple hours to finish it. He satisfied with the result he got. He saw the two beautiful rings, with a blue s.h.i.+ny colored ring coupled with a bright blue rose-shaped as the eyes of the rings. It was very beautiful to see, it makes the one who sees it captivated. But there is one more thing, it filled with his love.
Alex brought the two rings and finally left the workshop. His destination was obvious. Alex opened the door and saw Alicia and Firia chatting happily and Sherry lazying around. It was a beautiful sight to behold.
"Alex" Alicia noticed him. She smiled at him.
"There are a few matters that I wanted to talk with you guys" Alex scratched his cheek.
"What is it?"
"Actually, I wanted to drop out of the academy. I heard Firia already did that. But Teacher wanted me to graduate from there. He said he won"t mind to let me graduate earlier. But I wanted to ask your opinion first. After all…" Alex hesitated to tell them.
Alicia and Firia looked at each other eyes. They smiled and said at the same time to him "Why not?"
"That means, you two agreed for me to graduate?"
Alicia and Firia nodded.
"I see. Then the second matter is…"
Alex took out two beautiful rings that he made just now. Alicia and Firia were captivated by the sight of these two rings.
"Alex, this…"
"This…"
"Yes. Alicia, Firia, Would you two marry me?"
Alicia and Firia started crying, not because they were sad, but because they were too happy at this moment. They both said at the same time "Yes"
Alex knew the custom. It seems this world custom about marriage was similar to western marriage customs. He grabbed Alicia"s left hand and put the ring on her ring finger. He also did the same to Firia.
"Wuu Wuu" Sherry jealous. She was the only one who didn"t get a ring.
"Eh? Sherry too?" Alex looked at Alicia and Firia with a weird smile. But Alicia and Firia gave him a nod.
"Then I will make Sherry one too. But it might be better to give you a necklace than a ring. I am sure it"s hard to wear it"
"Wuu Wuu" Sherry was content. As long as she also received it, the shape didn"t matter.
"And another matter is that I found a solution for you, Alicia. I have a box of time, I can seal you for a while in that box. When you got sealed inside that box, your time would be stopped. Within that time, I can search for your cure"
"What?"
"Is that true Alex?"
"Yes," Alex nodded.
Alicia and Firia hugged each other. "That"s great"
"Well, since it was like that. I wanted to hold a wedding in two months? How about it?"
"No objection" Alicia and Firia said at the same time. They were still overjoyed with the situation.
"How about you guys prepare for our wedding?"
Alicia and Firia nodded. "How about you, Alex?"
"In those two months, I wanted to solve the war."
"What?" Alicia and Firia now shocked. "How?"
"But before that… I wanted you two meet Master"
Alicia and Firia looked at each other and smiled "Sure"
Suddenly, the door was opened. There are a few people fell down because of it.
"Your Majesty? Uncle? Teacher? And Even Madame and Elder Sister Mia. What are you all doing here?"
"Iya… I heard the joyous news. Why you still call me with "Your Majesty"? Call me Uncle!"
"That"s right. How can you still call me "Uncle". Call me Father!"
"mmm, You also need to call me "Mother"!"
"Sister-in-law"
"Ugh…" Alex was embarra.s.sed, even Firia and Alicia too.
"Uncle-in-law, Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, and Sister-in-law"
"Haha…Good Good Good"
"Oh right, I heard about it. How do you planning to stop this war?" The dean who was the calmest.
"Oh, that? The emergence of the third party"
"The emergence of the third party?" Everybody in the room was surprised.
The dean thought something, "Demi-human?"
Alex nodded, "Yes"
"But, how can you make them help us?"
"Teacher, what is the current problem that the entire demi-human race facing?"
"Divine Tree" The dean enlightened. "Do you mean that you can help them? We sent our Royal Academy Princ.i.p.al who was an expert in that area to there so he might be able to help them. But still no progress"
"Master gave me something to help them"
"I see" The dean was enlightened. "Do you need any help?"
"I think no. With my current strength, even I can"t win. I can still run away. Sherry also with me"
The dean nodded in understanding. "Then, I will write a letter first. You can bring them to the princ.i.p.al. He might help you to meet the royal family there"
"Thank you, Teacher"
"Alright. How about you bring these two to meet your Master. After you send them back here, they might be busy to prepare for your wedding."
Alex, Firia, and Alicia was embarra.s.sed. The dean teased them again.
"Haha… Hurry up. We will be busy from now on" The king and grand duke said.
Alex then brought Alicia and Firia away from the castle. Of course, Sherry followed them too.
