Gacha Sovereign

174 Surprise Attack

Alex looks at her silently for quite a while.

"Young Master?" Anna was confused about why he didn\'t say anything and only stared at her.

"Nothing. I just feel this system is very convenient. I can do many things about this Summoning Thing." Alex said, vaguely.

"Anna is ready to accept anything if it is the Young Master\'s wish. Even If Young Master wants this body, Anna will immediately give this body wholeheartedly. No, in fact, Anna is thrilled to... Ahem."

"Oi, You said your true intent just now" Alex said with a poker face.

"Young Master must be heard it wrong." Anna said while blushing.

"You can\'t convince someone with that face." Alex said with a wry smile. "This is not even a month after I seal Alicia and leave Firia in the lower world. So Please wait a bit longer, ok? I also need to prepare my heart before accepting someone again."

Alex said that because he knows the intention of Anna. Though Anna looked cold and aloof on the outside, She is actually a...shy? And a clumsy person. He also has introduced her along with the rest of the spirits to Alicia and Firia. And it seems that Alicia and Firia also have some suspicion about her but didn\'t say anything. It was like an OK from them and let Alex decided whether to accept her or not.

He also felt something familiar and nostalgic, the first time he summoned her. He didn\'t notice the feeling because of all the absurd summoning things. Anna is a good woman with an otherworldly beauty. If Alex didn\'t have Alicia and Firia. He might like her in an instant. What will Alicia and Firia say in this situation? Alex shook his head while smiling helplessly. They might say Anna is a good sister.

Anna\'s eyes widened and glazed. An otherworldly smile appeared on her face, and she said, "Yes. I will sedu...wait for Young Master forever."

Alex\'s expression turned to a poker face. "You always love to destroy the mood, aren\'t you? What? Are you going to say you will seduce me in the meantime?"

Her face becomes red like a tomato, "No. Young Master must hear it wrong."

"Like I said, You can\'t convince someone with that red face."

Alex sighed helplessly. He patted her head, "All right. Let\'s go. We need to search Twin Snake or Ofty Grass."

Anna shook her head, furiously to erase her blush. "Yes!"

...

Three days later

"Splitting Sword"

Another snakehead was flying. Alex and Anna have been searching for either Twin Snake or Ofty Grass. They found Ofty Grass relatively easy at first. But after some time, It is becoming harder and harder to search for it. So After three days searching for Ofty Grass. They stopped and now mainly searching for Twin Snake.

Like its name, The Twin Snake has one body but two heads. Unfortunately, only one of the two heads has the poison sac. Sometimes it is the right head, and sometimes it is in the left head. Alex didn\'t understand the pattern or gender since it wasn\'t related to that. So, he can only search it one by one. This is the third twin snake he has encountered. He still needs to kill many of these snakes. After all, this past three days, Alex has amassed a total of one hundred eighty three Ofty Grass. Since the request can only count each ten, he can\'t count the last three. That means, he has around one hundred eighty Sect Points. Such a speed can only be done by him. After all, each living being has energy, he remembered the energy from Ofty Grass. Using his Spirit Eyes Technique, it is relatively easy for him to find them.

They haven\'t met any Savage Bisons. So Alex decided to search in the forest for a week before going to the hill and cliff for another week. He also has a plan for the last week, so he still didn\'t know what to do for the third week. For the time being, he intended to kill those Twin Snakes until he fed up with it.

After retrieving the poison sac, Alex suddenly felt something wrong. He turned to the direction where he felt something and activate his Spirit Eyes. And his feeling proven to be right, the moment he activates the Spirit Eyes, he can see something carrying a huge amount of energy approaching him.

When he finally arrived in front of him, Alex can see it is a big werewolf. Without further ado, The Werewolf suddenly approached him, and his sharp and white claw went on its way toward Alex\'s head.

Although he already expected something like this from the amount of energy. He still didn\'t know. Because of the sudden appearance of a strong oppressive pressure that swept through all four directions, which made it difficult for Anna and Alex to breathe, it made him barely react to this.

He never thought that this Werewolf was this fast. In a blink of times, the Werewolf\'s claw already in front of his face. Alex quickly pulled out his sword as a gush of blood started streaming out, just before the nail reached his face and made his face a minced meat. Alex retreated a step back and used his sword to create a distance between him and the Werewolf. Thanks to his Spirit Eyes Technique, he can react to this sudden attack, albeit barely. Because of the sudden spike of Spiritual Energy, it installed a fear like thing and made his reaction speed slower. The instant, he realized that, he roared. "Ha!"

Anna finally realized what happened in that instant. The intense energy spike made their reaction speed slower. Fortunately, Young Master has the Spirit Eyes Technique. The claw only managed grazed his cheek, and he managed to distance himself using his sword. The moment she realized that, she gritted her teeth, "What a blunder."

Now that Alex has come back to a normal state, he saw through the Werewolf. The Werewolf itself is only 8-Star Martial Master, he should be able to put up a good fight even if he can\'t defeat it. It seems this Werewolf often used that technique to kill his prey. Alex is wondering why this Werewolf suddenly approached him, he can only speculate that the wolf comes because of the blood from the Twin Snake.

"Fire Phoenix Art, Second Stage. Fire Phoenix Claw" Alex, with his 3-Star Martial Master strength along with the \'Immovable Step\' finally thoroughly unleashed the power of the second stage of Fire Phoenix Art that Maxwell gave him. He managed to use this technique short after he came inside the Himura House. Although he intended to conceal his flame, he never stopped practicing it.

The \'Fire Phoenix Claw\' struck forth like lightning as the ground vibrated. The Werewolf also used his claw to counter Alex\'s Fire Phoenix Claw. Alex\'s fist completely scattered the Spiritual Energy within the werewolf claw while his fire claw burned the Werewolf claw. Alex instinctively using his Fire Phoenix Art that seems very effective toward the Werewolf.

The Werewolf\'s body trembled slightly. The Werewolf looked at Alex\'s hand that harmed him. Anna suddenly and silently appeared behind the wolf as she swings her big scythe. But, it still didn\'t fool the Werewolf\'s instinct. It suddenly turned behind as his injured hand trying to push Anna away. Anna immediately changed her target from the Werewolf\'s back to its injured hand.

Alex looks at the flying hand. They will need to deal with this Werewolf that has far higher cultivation from them bit by bit. Alex saw the Werewolf\'s motion. \'Not good.\'

He saw the Werewolf going to kick Anna. Alex raised his sword as the Spiritual Energy lingering on his sword along with his Sword Intent. The Intense Spiritual Energy suddenly spikes as he swings his sword hard toward the Werewolf\'s leg. "Don\'t you dare to hurt her. Sanguin Sword Art, Fourteenth Slash"

Half step away from a perfect Sanguin Sword Art struck the Werewolf\'s leg at point-blank range. Obviously, the strike immediately cut the Werewolf\'s leg as the Sword Wave struck the ground and made a deep cut into the ground. Anna took this chance to get away from the Werewolf and regroup with Alex. She is currently smiling. Because, Alex said, \'Don\'t you dare to hurt her\' unconsciously. If it is normal people, they will say \'Don\'t you dare to forget about my presence\' or something along the line. But Alex said \'Don\'t you dare to hurt her\'. So that means there is at least some degree of consciousness of her inside his heart. She will at immersed in this joyful moment at a later date, for now, her happy expression becomes solemn,

"Young Master. My Dark Element has the power of corrosion. It can erode his energy and make his reaction speed slower. I can\'t inject it in the previous attack since the attack separated his hand. I will inject it in the next attack." said Anna while focusing her eyes on every movement of the Werewolf.

"Alright. I will hold him then. But you need to hurry, I am not confident enough to hold him for you long enough" Alex disappeared after he said that. He used his \'Flash Step\' to arrive at the same speed as the Werewolf previously did it to him. The moment he arrived in front of the Werewolf, the Werewolf already ready to cut Alex\'s head with its sharp claw.

"Immovable Step" Power started gathering to his hand as his flame gushed out from both of his hands. "Fire Phoenix Art, Second Stage. Fire Phoenix Claw"

The powerful flame gushed out and formed a claw on each hand. The claws move toward the Werewolf body as its starting to clench and hold the Werewolf down. Even though the flame is still the fake flame, it is still a mighty flame. The Fire Claws is burning the werewolf body like previous. The Werewolf struggled fiercely under the claws. Alex can only do this for two seconds because of the gap between their cultivation. "Anna, Hurry up"

Of course, without saying. Anna already made her way toward the Werewolf the moment Alex disappeared. She appeared behind the Werewolf as she swings her scythe horizontally.

"Aoo!"

The Werewolf broke free from Alex\'s clutch. At first, She wanted to split the Werewolf into two. She didn\'t have any confidence in this and since the Werewolf already broke free. She changed the target again. This time toward its back.

"Tri Xeta"

Black Light was covering her scythe. The moment the scythe touched its target, the black light suddenly disappeared without a trace. Alex immediately activates his Spirit Eyes. The energy from her scythe swiftly made its way toward its brain. Since the attack is successful, Anna shouted. "Young Master. This technique can only hinder him for three minutes."

"One minute is enough." Alex smirked. As he immediately kicks the Werewolf\'s Abdomen and make its spat blood and retreated a few steps. The Werewolf can\'t react at Alex\'s kick because of the energy. It wanted to run at this moment.

"You won\'t be able to run away. Sanguin Sword Art. Fourteenth Slash" The Sword wave flew toward the Werewolf. The Werewolf wanted to shrug the Sword Wave with its other hand, but Alex\'s Sanguin Sword Art obliterated its last hand. The Werewolf immediately turned its back toward Alex and leaped with its last leg, but Anna suddenly appeared in front of him and struck once again.

"Dark Cut"

Her target is its leg. The Dark Cut immediately cut its leg, and because the Werewolf losing both of his hands and leg, it lost its balance and fell to the ground. Anna looks at Alex to deliver the finishing blow, "Young Master."

Alex jumped toward the air and took out his spear. He is ready to throw it toward the Werewolf, and his target is its head. Now that the Werewolf can\'t dodge anymore, this is the perfect time to target him. If Alex throws his spear earlier, it was likely avoided by it.

"Spin Throwing!"

The spear pierced through the air and made its way toward the Werewolf\'s head. It penetrated the Werewolf\'s head and planted to the ground. As expected, the penetration power from \'Spear Throwing Art\' is higher than from the \'Luminous Spear Technique\'

Alex let out a breath of relief as he took out his spear out of the ground. "Finally, it\'s done. I was surprised the Werewolf suddenly want to kill me. I almost died if I didn\'t activate my Spirit Eyes back then."
