Chapter 321: Cured
321 Cured
Alex did not stop them because he also felt Intan and Mega deserved that. Alex asked Nicole and Njomo to continue to observe them. He said he wanted to be present for that, and the best time for that was after he advanced to Martial Lord. After all, he needed to go to Nemu Forest to have a breakthrough.
Alex then looked at Anya, "Anya… I can call you this, right?"
"You can even call me honey or wife. And you do not even need my consent for that." Anya said seductively.
Unfortunately, it was not effective to Alex as he ignored it completely. He said with a poker face, "I will call you Anya then. Well, I suppose you have read a little bit of my memory, so I am sure you already knew about this."
"Yeah, I can purify the curse. It is easy for me." Anya said proudly.
"Then, that"s good." Alex nodded. "Sherry, Kyle."
He called both of them. They were inside his body this entire time since he thought he would not have enough time to fetch them before the enemies appeared.
However, only Sherry who came out of his body. Alex was astonished as he remembered when Sherry did not come out when he called. He asked Sherry, "Is Kyle undergoing his advancement?"
"Yes. He is the same as me and probably will sleep for a month or two-wuu." Sherry said.
Alex then forced Kyle out of his body. He handed the sleeping Kyle to Anna. "Since I am not going anywhere for the time being, he should stay in his room."
"Then, since I do not have a room, I can share a room with you," Anya added.
Alex felt this talk would become too long if he responded. So, he decided to ignore her and cultivate.
…
The next day, Putri came to Alex"s house. As soon as she came, Alex asked Anya to heal her.
Of course, she was surprised to see another heavenly beauty suddenly appear in his home. And she did not know why but she felt Anya was very similar to Anna.
"This is Anya, Anna"s twin sister. She will be the one who cures you." Alex introduced Anya to Putri.
Anya did not say anything to Putri. She just observed Putri this whole time.
"Anya, how is it?"
Anya nodded, "Yeah, I can cure it. There should be no problem. I can even do it now."
"Then, let you use the ro-!"
"I do not need a room or whatever, it will only take a minute or so," Anya said confidently as a light suddenly came out from her hand. It was like a snowflake but made from a yellow light.
She then slowly moved her hand toward Putri"s heart… AKA her left chest.
When the light came inside her, she felt warm.
Alex narrowed his eyes as he activated his Spirit Eyes. The light that came inside Putri"s body absorbed the black energy around her heart. Luckily the spreading was only around the heart, and Anya could solve it in a jiffy.
Two minutes later, Alex could see all the black energy in her heart had been absorbed. He was relieved but before he said anything,
"Kya-!" A super feminine voice suddenly startled him.
He obviously looked up and saw Putri with a bright red face.
"Is this a part of the treatment?" She asked embarra.s.sedly. Her original elegance already disappeared. Or maybe because she was not restrained by the fact she was a Makmur"s. It seemed her normal elegance diminished. However, it changed to a better one as Alex could see that she became a little bit more energetic and cheerful.
Alex did not understand her meaning, but when he looked down again, he saw Anya"s hand was grabbing her breast.
"Hmm… Good elasticity, but not enough volume. Even Alicia was bigger than this. If you want to seduce him, you need a little bit more volume, I guess." Anya observed like a professional.
"What? Seduce him?" Putri was bewildered by her comment. She indeed had favorable impressions on Alex. But it was only as a former Senior Sister and the current status as his disciple. There was no other thought than that.
"Umu… If you are a little bit bigger, then we can partner up to sedu-Hogya!"
Before Anya finished spouting her nonsense, Alex chopped her head with his hand. Alex suddenly remembered why Anna suggested to level her up first before summoning her. The first time he met her, he felt the urge to kick her when she wanted to hug him.
If he did not level her up before summoning her, she might die from that kick. And this too.
The reliable Anna suddenly came. Maybe she felt Alex had chopped Anya"s head. When she came, she immediately dragged her to somewhere else. Luckily, they had a whole realm different. Anna was able to drag her away with ease.
Looking both of them disappeared, Alex made a weird smile. "Sorry about that."
"No, no. I am grateful that my curse has gone. I feel more refreshed now."
Alex nodded. "Do you want to start the training now?"
Putri did not need to ponder. The sooner she could learn the trick, the quicker she could start her journey to get stronger. She had promised herself to get stronger and not tarnished Alex"s name in the future.
"Yes."
"Well, I have something I want to say before the training. It is a matter concerning the Makmur Family and the entire Southern Kingdom."
"!!!" Putri was startled, but when she thought about it, they might… When she realized that, she looked at him with a surprised expression.
"Yeah. They wanted to kill me. As for the reason, the Royal Family wanted Zwaka"s inheritance from me, and the Makmur Family wanted the technique that I will teach you now."
"Master… My name is Putri Wulan. And my family is you, Master Charya, Senior Sister Song Yu, and Evelyn. That"s all." Putri said slowly. She emphasized her name to show him that she was not related to the Makmur Family anymore.
"I see." After seeing her conviction, Alex said no more. "Let"s go to the training field."
Putri nodded her head and followed her to the field outside the house. This field was the place where he tortu- Ahem, trained Evelyn last time.
Alex started teaching her from the explanation to the basic combat. Of course, in the same way as Evelyn. Luckily, she had a cultivation of 10-Star Martial Grandmaster after she advanced because of Alex"s wine. She did not become the second Evelyn.
Alex drank his wine while teaching her. Anna said he could make another breakthrough with the wine. And luckily, it was perfect as he would breakthrough to 9-Star Martial Grandmaster with his wine and to 10-Star Martial Grandmaster with his Energy Pill.
Putri was a bit clumsy when holding the sword as she only used a spear as far as she knew it. Alex did not mind about that. He continued teaching her the basics.
A week later,
Alex advanced to 9-Star Martial Grandmaster. Putri was not bothered by his progress. The only thing she could think after seeing his advancement was a drive to get stronger. Even after Alex"s brutal training, she trained herself until she collapsed to the ground.
When she collapsed, Alex carried her inside and let her rest. Of course, the next day, he would do the training as usual.
After that, Alex absorbed the Energy Pill and officially advanced to 10-Star Martial Grandmaster. Luckily, it was not the same as the last time when he wanted to advance to 10-Star Martial Master. Although he did not know why, it saved him time.
Alex finally started consolidating his foundation.
It took him two months just to consolidate his foundation. Since he kept getting stronger, the consolidation took more and more time. But Alex could not skip this part.
A few things happened in these two months. First, the Heavenly Sword Sect seemed to have warned the Southern Kingdom for him. Because they got attacked a few months ago by the Zhou Kingdom, the royal family decided to take down Alex"s wanted poster.
However, according to Ngina, the royal family had not given up on killing him. They just stopped for a while because they wanted the one who had the most anger to mess up with him first.
The one who had the most anger was obviously the Makmur Family. Because of their greed, they never came back to Putri, and they never asked her to come back to the family. They thoroughly abandoned her and planned to get Alex"s secret.
Although they knew about the incident where the first elder of Heavenly Sword Sect came to the Southern Kingdom to warn them, they did not stop. Nicole said they decided to kill him the moment he left the sect.
But one thing that bothered him the most. Ngina said he lost Mega. Even though he had been searching for her whereabouts, he never found her again. Alex frowned when he heard that and told Ngina to continue to search for her location.
The second event was about Sherry"s advancements. With numerous Spirit Stones, Sherry managed to advance to 3-Star Martial Lords. Of course, she often fought Alex, Anna, Putri, and even Anya to sharpen her battle skill.
The third was about Putri. Because of her brutal training, she managed to comprehend the basics of using a sword like a spear skill in a month. A month later, she managed to use her Spear Intent and Spear Domain.
Although both her Intent and Domain were still unstable. At least, Alex did not need to worry about her in the future. As long as she kept working hard, she should be able to improve even without him. He had done his job.
But Alex also remembered the matter about their master and disciple relations.h.i.+p. Alex tried to convince her, but she was too hard-headed. She knew Alex just worried about her, but she also had her conviction.
The last thing that happened was Kyle"s advancement. After sleeping for a long time, Kyle finally woke up and officially broke through to 1-Star Martial Lord.
Anya was the only one left that was still a Martial Grandmaster as Jeanne and Vera had leveled up to Martial Lord a few weeks ago.
She thought she should try to level up herself in the area around. Ultimately, she decided to wait for a while.
Since Alex wanted to undergo his tribulation in Nemu Forest, she would start killing monsters there.
Alex also tried to replicate the way Maxwell made his array. From his point of view, other people should not be able to pick up that he was using his s.p.a.ce element to make his array. They would only be surprised to see him making an array so fast.
He could just bluff his way through, and the matter would end.
There was another thing that he had learned in these two months. Since he had reached 10-Star Martial Grandmaster, he finally practiced his money-making ability. He started practicing the mid 4th rank pill, Crystal Skin Pill.
Back then, he wanted to make this pill, but because he was too weak, Alex put it on hold. Since he had become a peak Martial Grandmaster, he finally managed to make the pill after trial and error.
Because of the huge consumption of Spirit Stones for cultivation, Alex"s wealth was down to twenty million Spirit Stones. With this rate, all of it would be gone before he managed to reach 5-Star Martial Lord.
He could see from Sherry alone, she needed around a million Spirit Stones per star as she was boosting her cultivation with it. And since Putri also practiced until she collapsed, Alex also used his Spirit Stones to recover her energy. Of course, Putri never knew about that.
After settling everything, Alex went out of the house since he wanted to ask her about the special place that he was interested in the Nemu Forest. He might go to that place after he broke through for leveling.
