BXBX NOVEL Chapter 505: Finally Back on the Other Side
505 Finally Back on the Other Side
"You… you bastards! All of you are abusing your authority!"
He glared at all of them, looking like he was suffering from injustice. The rulers only ignored him as the Neptune declared. "It seems we have gotten our decision. After opening the portal, the crystals would also go with him.
"However, I have asked our friend, Alexander Sirius, to throw back the crystals and destroy the portal. This way, no army would go toward our world while we still can send one person at a time with the power of crystals. Certainly, only the next Supreme would be the one to go. And if he/she is a real Supreme, the portal would be reconstructed if we want to. That was the plan of the previous Supreme."
"..." They looked at him, pondering the plan in their heads. They certainly did not have any objection to that decision. On the other hand, the Human Sovereign clearly could not accept this. Unfortunately, no matter how loud he was, they kept ignoring him. He also could not do anything against them because he did not have enough power.
"Since we have got the conclusion, I think we should go toward the gate now," The Neptune said.
"I am sorry, but all of you might remember the golden flash not long ago…" Ellen stopped him from ending the meeting.
The others immediately furrowed their eyebrows, remembering this incident. They then turned their heads to Alex.
"You might already guess, and yes, it was from Sir Alexander Sirius. And because of this matter, I need to go back immediately because the reparation process is still on-going. I would like to leave the meeting early. As for the details of that incident, I should not go into details. Just know that it won\'t happen again. No matter how many spies you throw at us, you won\'t know anything about it since there is literally nothing in that place and my castle."
When they heard it, they exchanged looks, wondering if they should trust it or not.
Seeing it would be better to discuss it after she went back, Neptune said, "Since the Phoenix Queen wants to go back early, I think we should see off the phoenix queen together."
The others also nodded their heads, having no objection to the decision.
"With this, I declare that our World Summit\'s meeting has officially ended. After we send the Phoenix Queen off, we shall go to the portal."
After that declaration, they rose and left the room with their companions. Neptune Eikha personally led them to the surface where the Phoenix was waiting.
Ellen, Stina, Kyle, and the elders came inside the carriage, hiding from their eyes.
Surprisingly, before they flew away, Ellen opened the door and called Alex. "Sir Alexander, may I talk a bit with you."
"Yes." Alex nodded, knowing this was their plan. He walked to the carriage and just stretched his head inside, making others think they only had a normal conversation. Unbeknownst to them, Kyle and Stina turned into a ball of light and went inside him. This way, they only knew Stina and Kyle were going back with Ellen, not Alex.
Alex nodded his head and waved his hand.
"What is that?" The Seraphim asked, looking at his expression to check whether he was lying or not.
"Nothing. It\'s just a simple goodbye." Alex shrugged. He did not lie since Ellen was really saying her goodbye to him. It was Stina and Kyle who acted on their own accord.
Seeing no lie from him, the Seraphim nodded. They then watched the phoenix fly to the horizon and dove again.
The Neptune led them to the portal, walking through a maze where they ended up on a heavily guarded door.
"My king." The guard leader immediately ran toward him before glancing at Alexander Sirius. "Is he?"
"Yes."
"!!!" The guard leader stared at Alex for a few seconds before shouting, "All soldiers, Hear me!"
Hearing that loud shout, they were curious. After all, only the leader had been informed of his existence, and he did not dare to talk it out with his subordinates.
His subordinates wondered why the Neptune brought many people here.
The answer came in the form of a shout. "All soldiers. Salute to the new Supreme, Human Alexander Sirius!"
"Supreme?"
"Human Supreme?"
"As is the Supreme a few thousand years ago?"
Many were confused about it. However, seeing their leaders salute to a human, they got their answer and slowly clasped their hands as they kneeled on one knee.
"We greet Human Supreme Alexander Sirius." They shouted in unison.
Alex had a weird expression, not knowing what to do. He looked at the Neptune and said, "Ehm, what should I do about this?"
"Let me handle this." The Neptune whispered as he stepped forward, looking at the soldiers. "All soldiers should return to their work respectively."
"!!!" Even though they did not want to disperse as they were curious about the Supreme, Neptune\'s words were absolute. Much to their dismay, they started to disperse. At the very least, they could tell their kids or family that they had witnessed the second Supreme\'s appearance.
At the same time, the leader immediately shouted, "Open the gate!"
The giant door slowly opened as the soldiers released the seal.
They could see a metallic gate without any blemish. Alex could see that the gate must have been taken care of by the Naga Race.
The white metallic gate looked like a gate to heaven, unless it was completely empty as he could see through it. He looked at the six holes around the gate and furrowed his eyebrows. It would seem he needed to insert the crystals there.
He checked the gate with his Spirit Eyes, and as expected, he found nothing. The crystals were the keys of this portal as it contained the array and the necessary energy to make a portal.
Looking at this, he walked toward the gate. Before taking out the crystals, Alex looked at the Neptune.
Sherry and Anya came behind him, looking at the other suspiciously. They were trying to make sure no one would do anything funny such as running through the gate.
"Please." Neptune gave his confirmation.
Alex nodded and took out the six crystals and started placing them one by one.
Each time he inserted the crystal, the crystal shone brightly before creating symbols after symbols. It slowly spread all over the gate and floor, creating a giant teleportation array.
With just one look, Alex knew it was a God Level Teleportation Array. However, it used the crystals as the catalysts and the white gate as the body, giving it the ability to make a portal.
All rulers were shocked by the sight as they stepped back, thinking it was dangerous.
Alex narrowed his eyes. After the crystal revealed the array\'s true form, it started creating a blue gate, starting from one tiny dot before making a full gate.
He looked at the other side and noticed it was very dark. He felt they were in a special place or something.
"Anya, Sherry, be ready to fight at any moment notice." He ordered, a bit unsure of what they would meet on the other side.
"Yes." They knew their job well.
After a few seconds, noticing no human or monster was coming in, he thought the place was something deserted such as a cave or something, albeit he would need to confirm it first on the other side.
Taking a deep breath, he turned to the other rulers. "I will throw you the crystals and I am sure the portal will close instantly. And then, I will destroy the portal to prevent someone from crossing to this world.
"If in the future, you want to restore the portal, the crystals are the materials. Even if you build the portal and make the rune, it would be impossible. When someone is chosen to rebuild the portal, you shall teleport them together with the crystal.
The rulers stared at him for a few seconds before the Neptune bowed his head. "We have received the Supreme\'s words."
"We have received the Supreme\'s words." The others also followed, except the Human King.
Alex was observing this guy from the start, worrying he might jump to the portal and tell his power in the other world. Luckily, if he destroyed the portal, it would take a long time for another Supreme to arrive. This way, even if they spread his information, he would already be far ahead.
After looking at the others one last time, including Qeigess, Lexi and Lilian, he finally walked toward the portal.
Anya and Sherry also followed him while watching the Human Sovereign. Luckily, he did not do anything, so they managed to cross the portal without difficulty.
Alex looked at the portal on the other side and noticed the crystals. It would seem the gates were connected, which meant if he took the crystals on this side, the crystals on the other side would disappear.
He simply smiled and waved his hand, using his Spiritual Energy to take out the crystals. Although he was sure that he could just ask the others to take the crystals out on the other side, he wanted to make an assurance.
Neptune and the others gulped down, thinking if Alex decided to go back on his word.
Fortunately, Alex was not someone like that. After taking the crystals out, he tossed them toward the shrinking gate.
Without the power from the crystals, the gate could not maintain its portal, and in just a few seconds, it closed.
Alex waved his hands and smiled. "Goodbye."
They stared at him blankly before clasping their hands respectfully until the gate fully closed.
After the gate disappeared, he finally left alone in an empty dark space. He might look carefree earlier despite warning Anya and Sherry, but he actually had skimmed the place with his Spirit Eyes and found nothing. Hence, he could actually act like that while Anya and Sherry guarded him.
"Alex, this should be a cave or something. If you listen carefully, I hear the sound of water in that direction." Anya pointed her finger toward the cave\'s passage.
Before answering her, he took out his sword and covered it with his intent. He struck the gate with all of his strength, destroying it into pieces.
"Boom!"
The crumbling sound echoed as Alex activated his Spirit Eyes again, observing if any people came to the cave.
If this place were under someone\'s jurisdiction, then he would need to escape by utilizing his Teleportation Array. Luckily, it would seem his worry was not needed as after a minute, he had yet to see any energy.
"Where are we…"
"I don\'t know. I have asked Anna to search for this portal, but…"
"They did not find it, huh…" Alex pondered for a while before stretching his hand to her. "Give me Anna\'s card."
Anya nodded and handed him the card.
"Anna, we have arrived in the Northern Continent," Alex said.
His voice startled her. "I… I am sorry, Alex. I have dispatched the N squad to search for the gate but can\'t find it…"
The N squad in her mouth was Nelson\'s subordinates. Since all of them started with N, she just called it N squad.
"It\'s fine since, according to our observation, we are inside a cave or something. We will try to go outside first and search for a town or something. At that time, I will ask you to get us." Alex explained his plan.
"I understand. As long as the town is not very deserted, we should know your location. I will send Jeanne to lead you to our base."
"Alright." He nodded and turned his head to Anya and Sherry. "Sorry. I need to ask you guys back. Although there is a shapeshifting technique for Sherry, I need to sort all the techniques first, in case there is a better technique."
"Yes!" They understood his reason and immediately went back inside his body and card.
Alex then started walking through the cave until he finally saw a light that seemed to be the exit. It would seem he was behind a waterfall.
He used his fire to burn the water as he did not want to get wet and walked forward. Unexpectedly, there was a blonde-haired woman, bathing on the lake outside the cave.
Their eyes intertwined and trouble might come soon.
