[one of the greatest advantage of a spirit king is knowledge intrinsic to the universe itself. Basically it would get to a point where a spirit king is a bastion of knowledge and Wisdom, they know all and see all, such that even the G.o.ds themselves would come seek knowledge from them.History has likened many spirit Kings as G.o.ds, but G.o.ds there are not. They are beings connected to the very foundations of existence, holding together the heavens and earth, defenders and protectors of the countless worlds and life that"s spread across the cosmos.
And so when it is needed and required, the universe would not hide away it"s knowledge, which is why Spirit Kings are so feared and respected, they posses the wisdom and Knowledge of the universe.]

Alex knew just exactly what he needed to do to save this boy"s life, but he was knew he had to be careful. One wrong move and he would be causing irreparable damage to the young boy"s soul and spirit. His very sense of being would be ruined and even if he lives he would be no better than a vegetable.
Alex didn"t really understand why the vengeful spirit and the revenant were hanging around this boy, based on the whole const.i.tution s.h.i.t they just told him, it was quite obvious this was not the first time the spirit have came close to the boy, and not the first time the vengeful spirit lashed out at people coming close to him, giving off the impression he had a powerful physique that he had to train to master. What they understood was that the physique activated at intervals, though mostly on a full moon night. But when that happens, it lashes out at any human or living being close to him.
And subsequently after that he would fall unconscious for a few days with a fever and symptoms synonymous with a severe drain of one"s Qi or Mana. Alex knew better though, the child was poisoned. Qi and Mana were the energies the human body was now engineered to utilize and absorb, however there would be a few amongst the many who would have the privilege of being born with the ability to utilize and purer and higher form of energy, which In this case is spirit energy.
But Spirit energy was like taking pure crude oil that"s not been refined and pouring it into the engine of a car.
Basically this was asking for death as the entire operating system of the car would break down, if not outright explode in the process. This was the situation this boy was currently in right now, for whatever reason, he"s a target of a vengeful spirit, and since there"s no direct way for the spirit to attack him for some reason, it has taken to coming in contacted with him, and leaving behind residues of it"s corrupted spirit energy.
A human body is not designed to be capable of handling spirit energy, at least not without a lot of training and an affinity for it. It was draining him of his vitality every time it"s come in contact with him, and that"s the reason why he always seemed so tired after, he was loosing sorts of himself to that spirit, and not he"s energy at all. Alex closed his eyes as he kept his focus and began to drag the dark and murky spirit energy within the body of the boy and taking it into his own. He felt Devonte shudder as a tiny trickle seemed to find it"s way into his body, but Alex closed himself off, focusing on just the weight of Devonte"s dagger in his back, and the flow of energy into his body.
They were all pretty surprised when Alex had asked Devonte to stab him in the back (literally) and even more surprised by the fact that; Devonte did not even hesitate. Alex knew that Devonte wasn"t blindly following him, but none the less the young fairy was loyal to his master to the core. It was what set him and Khan apart from the rest of his comrades, with humans, there was always a possibility that Alex could get betrayed, but Devonte and Khan were bonded to him to the very core.
Devonte trusted every word and command that came from Alex, and he knew and understood no order was without reason. And that was true, Alex needed to focus a bit on the pain from Devonte"s dagger being stabbed into his back. Thankfully Devonte was a professional and no organs were pierced in the process. With blood trickling down his back, Alex moaned softly in pain and discomfort as he retrieved a significant amount of the corrupted spirit energy.
Alex pulled back from the boy, and in full view of Everyone fell to the ground heaving in pain as he began to vomit blood that had been blackened and poisoned by the corrupted spirit energy.
Dark veins seemed to spread across his face as he spent a good ten minutes vomiting and expelling the excess dark spirit energy from his body in the only way he knew how. And when he was done and he sat back, completely drained with a knife still in his back, he was met with the sparkling blue eyes of the young boy.
"Are you okay?" the boy asked looking all innocent and childlike, it was hard for Alex to. Imagine that this was the kid that he saw training some time ago.
"yeah...(hah!) I"m...(Hah!)okay!....just need to.....(Hah!) Catch my breath."
d.a.m.n being a spirit king was so stressful, he felt as if his head had been choked full of Information, he didn"t even need Nezha to tell him how to deal with the symptoms, he just knew how to deal with what was wrong with the kid.
An intrinsic knowledge, but where the h.e.l.l did it come from anyways. Either way he had some things he had to say to Victoria before he left, he nodded to Devonte, and in one smooth movement, the fairy pulled out the dagger from Alex"s back, prompting another his of pain from the young man.
Alex"s blood that touched the ground, began to hiss and rapidly evaporate the moment it came in contact with air. Alex didn"t Understand why that happened, but it"s either because it was a defense mechanism to prevent his blood from being taken(he had no idea what such an explanation came into his mind), or his blood still had traces of the corrupted spirit energy and it would probably take a few days for that to clear up.
"Listen to me Victoria, he"s not out of danger yet. The vengeful spirit that has been after him will be back, and quite frankly no body in the entire Academy would be able to see it when it comes back for him, except of course me, Devonte and Khan. So you need to figure out a way to deal with that spirit once and for all, it"s been draining his anima, basically the total combination of his soul, energy and spirit, His sense of being.
I don"t know how long this has been going on, but the fact that he"s still alive speaks volumes of his will and tenacity. But he"s not out of the woods, I"ve taken as much of the corrupted spirit energy in him as I can, but it"s still in him, so this whole s.h.i.t show has been going on for quite a while. I need a few more sessions with him, preferably I"ll have to keep him close to protect him from the spirit, but honestly that"s not my problem, your dogs are annoying!
But even if I help him fully dispel the curse on him, because that"s exactly what this is, a curse! I still don"t know why spirits are after him, not that such information is relevant to me, I just want to know why a deceased five year old girl with a knife stuck in her chest and a bloodied middle aged man keep hanging around him, and also why I almost lost my life for something that doesn"t concern me.
But if I had ignored those spirits he would probably be dead, so you have to tell what"s up with that. Who"s the kid, and how are you going to deal with that idiot that laid hands on Khan because I really want to kill him."
Alex was filed with a whole slew of dark emotions, he felt Devonte place a hand on his shoulder from behind. Alex sighed as he got up and turned to the fairy.
"I know Devonte, taking this curse into my body has thrown my emotions and personality out of alignment. I should be fine in a few days."
Alex silently cursed though, the cure itself was a lot more potent than he had expected. He was resistant to it, in fact it was currently being purified and turned into spirit energy for his use with the worst part of it already expunged.
But still what was left was still powerful enough to mess with his head. And this wasn"t because the spirit was too powerful, this was an acc.u.mulation of hatred. Every time that spirit touched the boy it left a piece of that hatred behind, and every piece was merely a fraction of what the spirit truly felt.
Which begs the question, what great evil could have been commute against a girl so young that she would be filled with enough hard to overpower a spirit king in the spirit commander realm. She was just a vengeful spirit, one of the weakest amongst spirits in the Apparition discipline. But she was strong, by virtue of her hatred.
Victoria didn"t answer the questions Alex had asked her, instead she looked at him and asked questions of her own.
"You say you need him close to you to fully heal him, and protect if not possibly get rid of the spirit that"s been haunting him didn"t you?"
"Yes I did say that." Alex replied and he picked his jacket from the ground.
"Forgive me for being so presumptuous, but can you please host us both in your tower for a few days. I promise to explain everything and reward you handsomely if you can help us with this problem."
"Errrm sure I guess?"
