Chapter 172: Alexandra’s life and Secret
Alexandra sighed and closed her eyes while my gaze was fixed on her. She has begun to open up about her life after the events in the mountains.
But I was surprised to learn that the ancient families created the forces and still have complete control over them. How much time has passed and they are still prevalent?
But after thinking for a while, I understood that no one could challenge them and they still have the full hold over the forces.
Unexpectedly, I sighed. My previous self has sealed this world. Apart from this planet, there are many more planets in this universe and these people keep on fighting them. Even after all these years, no one from this world could ascend to godhood. They are still clinging to the hopes that one or the other day, they could reach the pinnacle. But they don’t know that after the ascension, they would still be an ant in that world.
My eyes shifted to Alexandra again. Her eyes closed and her chest heaved up and down, while her eyelashes fluttered. I could see that she was thinking about something.
She also craved for Power and almost discovered that I am the reincarnation of that man. But somehow I salvaged the situation. But I know that seed of doubt has sprouted in her heart. But I have to commend her. I don’t know how much difficulty she faced to dig out the history.
As if she felt my gaze, she opened her eyes and looked at me. “What are you looking at?”
I smiled and shook my head. “You should relax. I could see that you are having some burden in your heart,”
Her eyes were fixed on me for a while before she sighed. “I don’t have a good relationship with my parents and that family. Even though I was born into that family, I was just a tool to uphold their reputation.”
She paused for a while and closed her eyes. “Even though they nurtured me and played a major role in my life. They are also the reason that I could not live a normal life. From the moment I was born, my mother was my moral support. But when she needed me, I was not there with her. These people even hid the news of her death so that I could continue with my training? Do you think these people deserve to be called the family?”
I shook my head and said, “I don’t know what a family is.”
What I said is the truth. Even though I spent most of my life on earth. I really don’t know what is the feeling of the family. From the moment I was born, it was a nanny who took care of me. Both of my parents were busy expanding the business empire. But they forgot that there was a kid waiting for them. But anyway, even though they were my parents, I didn’t have any lingering attachment towards them. When they died, I didn’t feel any loss. It was as if they were not a part of my life. But I have to thank them. Because of them, I arrived in this world.
What I am most proud of is that I have lived my life to the fullest. I didn’t have any regrets. But to think that I would arrive in this world because I clicked an ad. It was ridiculous. And to think that I was a dumb fool was preposterous.
I shook my head and cleared my thoughts and looked at her. Her eyes were fixed on me as if she was contemplating something.
“I don’t know about your life in the jungle before you evolved. But since you are here, we are your family. I think you should know about the people I am talking about, right?”
I nodded, “I know,”
“Anyway, to think that I was rambling about my family to you is quite ridiculous. Never in my life did I think that I would have someone who would patiently listen to my rambling.”
She took a deep breath. “You would think that since I was born in that family, there would be many people in this world who would do anything to gain my favor, right?”
She paused and looked at me.
But I shook my head and said, “I know.”
She nodded and said, “You are right. In my life, I have seen many people who would do anything to gain my favor. Just because they want to rely on my family. It was also one of the reasons I started hating them.”
“I wanted to create my own legacy. I didn’t want anyone to rely on me just because they wanted to gain the favor of my family. And that is also the reason that I spent most of my time on the battlefield.”
She looked at me and said, “When I joined the forces, I started my career with the lowest cadre, even though I could have obtained a higher position. I didn’t want to rely on the support of my family.”
She laughed slightly. “You know what? They tried to pursue me, not to blemish the name of the family. But anyway, I went against them and joined the forces. And my hard work bore fruit.”
“I was the genius of my family. Those people had high hopes for me. But I went against them. I didn’t support them in any of their political motives. They even wanted to trade my life for political reasons. Anyway, after I joined the forces, I never looked back. Even though I joined as a soldier of the lowest cadre, I moved up the ladder rather quickly. Within a few years, I was already a captain of the troops. Everyone started recognizing me. They recognized my talent. In a few short years, no one talked to me because of my family. They started talking to me because of my talent.”
She shook her head slightly. “But you know what? Even though I achieved success professionally. I failed in my personal life. After spending most of my time in the forces and on the battlefield. I didn’t have anyone in my life. All my life, I wanted power. It became an obsession for me.”
She again sighed. “During one of my raids on another planet. I discovered a secret. A secret that changed my life.”
She paused and looked at me. “Do you want to know?”
My brows were raised when I heard her words. Of course, I want to know. Is there any doubt about that?
I nodded. “Of course, I want to know.”
Her brows were arched while a smile formed on her face. “I know that you would be very curious. Anyway, went I raided that planet. Apart from the resources, I got to know that this whole world is sealed.”
I was surprised. How did she know that?
Her smile widened. “Do you know what I found there?”
I shook my head. “How will I know?”
She nodded slightly and said, “Yes, how will you know? Anyway, I would tell you.”
“Do you remember the night when I asked you whether you are the reincarnation of that GOD or not?”
I was stunned. Why is she asking this question again? Does it have any relation to the raid?
But I kept a straight face and said, “Yes I remember. What does it have to do with that?”
She shook her head and said, “You don’t know, but after the successful raid, I started scavenging the planet. In all these years, my only goal was to find the truth. The truth regarding the failure in the ascension to godhood. When I raided that planet, I didn’t have any hope of finding clues regarding that. But I made an unexpected discovery during the trip.”
“I got a record. Record of the ancestry of that planet. And you know what? I got to know that they were the people who had the power of divination. In their records, I found that they already knew that one day, the people of forces would attack them. And they also knew that I would be reading the records of their ancestry.”
She took a deep breath and looked at me. Her eyes were fixed on me as if she was contemplating something. But she spoke after a while, “I was surprised, surprised that they already knew about my arrival. And they also knew that I would be the one who would scavenge their records. They told me to go to the secret place which was mentioned in the records. It was mentioned that I had to go alone, otherwise, it would create a huge disaster. I was surprised, but I followed their command and went alone and found the mentioned place.”
She paused and looked at me. “Do you know what I found there?”
My brows were raised when I heard her words, “How would I know?”
She smiled and said, “I found the will of GOD. The God who was once proud of our planet. “
