Chapter 504 World Summit (Part 2)
"They are the ones who have witnessed my entire journey, My wife and partner."
His introduction made them gulp down. The one who had the most excruciating expression was Shelka. If she could do anything she wanted, she would make these two disappear first. Unfortunately, she could not do anything in front of these many rulers.
The second person who had a terrible expression was the human king. This was different from his original plan. He never thought Alex would already have a partner and even a person like him would know there was an otherworld face beneath that veil. As for the little fox girl, she had become a Tier 6 fox with that age. It was apparent that none of the princesses could win against him, whether it was beauty or strength.
As for Lilian, she could only close her eyes. As she had expected, there was no way a man of Alex's caliber would have a normal woman.
The atmosphere became heavy again and the Neptune announced, "I presume we can start the meeting. Hence I declare the World Summit will begin now!"
He paused for a bit, looking at all of their expressions. "The purpose of this meeting is to discuss all things related to the six crystals and the portal to the other worlds. Hence, for the start, we will discuss the crystal first. Do any of you have any problem with Alexander Sirius possessing all six crystals, especially after completing the trials?"
Seraphim and Dragon King immediately shook their heads and said at the same time. "No. I don't have any objection since he truly deserves the crystals."
"Our Phoenix Race also does not have a problem with this. In fact, many of our phoenixes like him." Ellen nodded, agreeing with the two rulers.
The Elven King stared at the Seraphim. "Before I agree, I need to get an explanation from Seraphim. For what reason you sent my daughter back? You should have realized she was accompanying him at that time."
"The reason is simple. She is dangerous."
"You do realize what you said can trigger a war between our races, right?" He glared, releasing a bit of his killing intent.
"Let me elaborate it a little bit. There are only two options for my Illusion Skill: 0 or 100 percent. If they do not have any bad intentions, they would easily render my illusion skill useless. However, in case they have even a little bit of bad intention, it would raise to one hundred percent.
"Hence, I don't even need a reason to send her back. Even if you say she has her own reason, my illusion will dig up the deepest desire that even she might not be aware of. Is this reason enough, Elven King?" Seraphim narrowed his eyes.
He wanted to rebuke him, but after hearing the report from Shelka herself, he really could not say anything. He clenched his fists before loosening it again. "No."
The seraphim nodded.
"Wait!" Human Sovereign cut in. "There is still a problem with the crystal. Why did he not go to my kingdom if he possessed the human crystal? I need an explanation for this. If I don't get any satisfactory answer, we will see!"
Alex felt the killing intent from the Human Sovereign and shrugged his shoulder. The Human Sovereign was a 2-Star Martial Emperor and he believed he could defeat him. Besides, he was not his subject, so seeing the other party was a bit rude and even released his killing intent. He snorted.
"I don't have any obligation to meet you. Even if I meet you, then what? Do you want to control me? For example, that son and daughter of yours? Don't make me laugh.
"If I come to you when I am a mere Tier 5 mage, you might make some plots to kill me. With the crystal in my hand, you surely can't kill me. However, monsters are a different case. If you ordered someone to lead a Tier 6 monster, or even you would handle it yourself, it might cost you a bit, but I would undoubtedly die.
"At that time, you can just seize the crystal for yourself." Alex berated him completely. The Human Sovereign's expression turned ugly and Alex continued, "Besides, I am not your subject nor am I a part of the Human Race of this world.
"I only need the pass from the guild, which I can't get. I could not be careless as for what fate you will have."
"You bastard!" The king released his spiritual energy as he could not stomach Alex's attitude.
Alex was not afraid of him, so he also released his energy. At the same time, Sherry was angry and released another energy from behind Alex. The energy synchronized with Alex's energy and suppressed the opposite party's energy.
"Cough!" The Neptune also released his Spiritual Energy, stopping this battle. He looked at the Human Sovereign and said, "If you want to create a ruckus, then I might need to ask you to leave this meeting."
"..." The Human Sovereign could only grit his teeth. He snorted and looked away.
"First of all, I want to clarify first. Human, Elf, Phoenix, Angel, Dragon, and Naga race… Alexander Sirius got the crystals in this order, right?" He glanced at Alex.
"Yes."
"In that case, I ask you to take all of them out so the others can confirm that you possess the six crystals."
Alex pondered for a moment before taking the six crystals out of his space ring.
Red, Orange, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Purple. The six crystals were shining, captivating the others.
It was already close to impossible to see six crystals together. That was why they were mesmerized, looking at the beautiful crystals.
"We… we have certainly witnessed and confirmed that you possess all six crystals." The Neptune declared.
Seraphim, Dragon King, and Ellen applauded.
"Since this matter is concluded, we will move to the other matters, which is whether we will go to another world or not," Neptune said.
Their expressions turned serious upon hearing it.
"Before you say your opinions, I should give you the advantages and disadvantages first. I will start with the advantages.
"Firstly, you can break your limit and have a chance to become a Tier 7 being." Upon hearing this, a certain feeling started creeping in their heart. "The second benefit we would get is about pills and many other things. According to the previous Supreme, their system is very different from ours.
"They have pills that can help one to recover. There is even a pill that can raise one's strength. They also have powerful weapons that can destroy the Dragon Scale easily, though it must be a very powerful weapon, which is very rare.
"They also have explored the runes deeper than us." He paused a bit, letting everyone to consider the information.
Ellen had known about this from her mother. It was true that the enticement of Tier 7 was huge, but it came with a certain risk that even made her cower. As for the pills, she absolutely knew how wonderful it was, considering she had experienced it herself. It was enough for her to have a feeling to possess Alex.
If not because of her mother and other things, she wanted to ask Alex to join Phoenix Race no matter the price. His knowledge about weapons was deep too, so he might be able to teach the Phoenixes to fight with weapons. This would let a phoenix that did not have a powerful element to still have great strength.
Although she could hide this desire, it might not be the same for the others. They might do something beyond her imagination and seize Alex. Luckily, no one knew about it other than the royal family and a few elders.
She looked at the expression from other rulers and furrowed her eyebrows. Even the Seraphim and Dragon King were baited for this, let alone the Elven King and Human Sovereign. Unfortunately, their expectation was shattered as soon as the Neptune explained the disadvantages.
"This is certainly very tempting for all of us. Sadly, just like a coin, it also has other sides. The first disadvantage is their entire population is Human Race. In other words, we are like a special creature for them and I believe, if we go through, there would be another tragedy in this land.
"After all, just like we would have the potential to become a Tier 7, that world has many bonafide Tier 7 fighters. I even heard they have Tier 8… and I don't think I should tell you the consequences if they come to our world again, right?"
They gulped down, picturing what would happen. They could not help but shudder.
"Yes. Our troops will be destroyed in an instant and this world would be ruined. Dying might be considered salvation at that point. That's why I, representing the Naga Race, decide to stay."
"Wait! In that case, just send our human race!" Human Sovereign broke his silence with greed. "Since we have the same race, then we can live together with them. This way, we can increase our strength first before revealing we are from another world."
"Human Sovereign… if you speak without greed in your eyes, I would certainly believe you." The Seraphim, who was sensitive about this, glared. "Just looking at your expression, I know what you want to do.
"You absolutely want to get stronger in another world first. After that, there will be two futures for us. First, you will bring an army from the other side and attack us. The second future is where you have become a Tier 7 and come back to this place.
"You might want to devastate us and enslave us. You can't hide your greed from me, Human Sovereign." He finally released his killing intent. "Even the human from the other side like Alexander Sirius is more trustworthy than you."
Even the Elven King agreed with him despite the friction between them. The Human Race was declining every single day. As their neighboring country, they certainly knew they usually had a battle for the throne. And at some point, a useless king was selected and ruined the talent of the royal family.
Since they could not endure such humiliation, they decided to oppress other humans to make sure no one would have the ability to revolt.
"Indeed. I, Ellen Blaze, represent the Phoenix Race and decide to stay in this world."
The other rulers looked at Ellen, who suddenly declared her decision and looked at each other.
"I, Zarall, represent the Angel Race and decide to stay in this world."
"I, Zephyr, represent the Dragon Race and decide to stay in this world."
"I, Greyson La Muerte, represent the Elven Race and decide to stay in this world."
"You… you bastards! All of you are abusing your authority!"
