Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 141 - What?



Chapter 141 - What?

(AN: Haha, Since Gacha itself is an unusual theme, I\'m going to make it unusual and weird till the end)

"I\'m Alex, what is your name?"

"My name is Kenshin, Himura Kenshin."

\'Wow, Japanese (Another World Version)\' He can\'t help but scream in his head. But, he can\'t let that excited feeling got into his face. Still, meeting a Japanese in another world… Whether he is Japanese or not is the problem. Maxwell told him that there are numerous worlds out there, and each of them has its own culture. Especially, this upper world was connected to many lower worlds. As they ascend to this upper world, their culture starts to assimilate with each other here, so having a name that is very familiar to him is a possibility, like this time. He is wondering, what will he see later on? Will he see Chinese (Another World Version) or maybe Another World Russia? He can\'t wait to see that. But something is bugging him when he heard his name, he felt that he had heard his name somewhere but he can\'t recall where it is.

"I am Alexander Sirius. Nice to meet you"

"Yes, Thank you, Senior, for helping me."

"Don\'t mind it. I\'m just passing by. I am just searching for sect or something to grow up and somehow arrived here."

"Senior, how about I lead you to my House? There will be a competition in my town in a few days, and some sects will have their deacons to choose some people to come to their sect as a disciple. I will explain in detail later, and I wanted to repay Senior for saving my life."

Alex is making a gesture like he was in deep thought. "Hmm… Fine. I don\'t have any destination for the moment. Pleasure to meet you"

"It\'s my pleasure, Senior."

"Don\'t call me \'Senior\', from the look of it, we are at the same age, right? Just call me, Alex."

"Yes, Alex. Please also call me Kenshin."

"Sure."

"This way" Kenshin lead him to the town, they are not that far from the town, so they will arrive in a few minutes.

Alex saw the city wall, the city wall itself was close to those Ancient China City Wall. And it seems that the soldiers are respectful to him. Alex started wondering, is he famous in here? But, he didn\'t have any fancy clothes, his clothes looked cheap and tattered. Kenshin himself didn\'t have any Young Master vibe. Suddenly, a fatty who seems to also have the same age as them running toward them.

"Young Master Kenshin. Where are you just now? How can you be like this? Don\'t you know Master and Madame panic when they didn\'t find you anywhere?"

"Fatty, don\'t worry I\'m fine. I just got back from the Forest."

"Is that so…" Then he turned to Alex, who was beside him, "Who is this, Young Master?"

"He is Alexander, He saved me back in the forest"

"What? You said you are fine. And now you said that he saved you. That means you almost die in the forest? I will inform the Master and Madam about this" Just about the fatty walked away, he turned to Alex "Thank you for saving my Young Master."

"I\'m just passing by"

"I\'m sorry, but I need to report this to Master and Madam as soon as possible, Young Master needs to be punished for this" he ran away.

"Oi, fatty" Kenshin called him but he already disappeared, "I\'m sorry about his behavior. His name is Sogo, he is my friend."

Alex looked at him, "You are a Young Master?"

"Ahaha…" Kenshin scratched his cheek, not because he was embarrassed but because he was ashamed.

Suddenly, a voice come from their back, "Oh… Isn\'t this \'Young Master\' Kenshin."

Alex thought after hearing that sarcastic voice, \'Ah, it\'s come\'

They looked at the source of the voice, they saw a young man with short blue hair, along with his fancy clothes. Beside him is a young girl, short red hair and somewhat pretty, her body is s.e.xy with right curves in the right places.

"Himura Soma, Soejima Isano"

"What\'s with your clothes? Your cheap clothes now become tattered like this. Want me to lend you my clothes? But, I think this tattered clothes fit you better. You are a fallen genius. Even though you can increase your cultivation base, but without any combat abilities, you are only a paper tiger. And our gap will get wider and wider. You won\'t be able to catch up with me for the rest of your life. That\'s why Soejima\'s house annulled your engagement with her and pair her with me. I\'m the one who fit her"

"That\'s right. Young Master Kenshin, You won\'t fit me, A dragon like him is the one who fits me. sooner or later, everyone can defeat you"

"You!"

From this conversation alone, he felt really nostalgic. They are the same as \'John and Penn\'. He now somehow wanted to help this \'Kenshin\' to f.u.c.k them up.

"Oh, who do we have here?" Soma looked at Alex. Alex still has no expression in his face. "You better leave him, he is sooner or later will become a useless person. I\'m sure if you are a smart person, you know what is better."

"Soma, don\'t implicate him in here. This is only between you and me." then he looked at Isano, "Soejima Isano. Soejima\'s house will regret what they have done."

He said this to make Alex out of this matter, Alex also know that

"Alex, Let\'s go."

"Haha, \'Young Master\' Kenshin, what do you say? Regret? I will soon become the top 10 in the tournament and go into a top sect." Isano mocked him.

Soma pulled Alex out of here. Alex wasn\'t bothered with them, only result can slap their face.

On the way, Kenshin started to talk, "I\'m sorry Alex. Even though I wanted to repay you, but I\'m worried that you will be implicated in my matter. I don\'t mind if you leave."

"So, you say that you wanted me to leave. You said that you wanted to pay me back? Then I won\'t leave, there is also a tournament that I\'m interested in, you need to explain about the tournament to me, in detail."

Kenshin looked at him and smiled a little. He leads him toward his home.

"My father is the master of Himura House and I\'m the current young master. Even though I can reach Martial Master Stage, my fighting ability is very low. I don\'t know why but every time I tried a weapon, it feels something off. I tried sword, spear, ax, and many others. But still have the same feeling."

"…" Alex thought about something in his head, "Don\'t tell me…"

They finally arrived at Kenshin\'s home. The house is very similar to the Japanese house in the Edo Period. There is a middle-aged woman, Long violet hair, gentle and mature expression on her face. She ran toward Kenshin and hugged him. "Kenshin, you worry me so much. Fatty Sogo told me that you almost died"

"Mother. I\'m sorry for making you worry."

After embracing her son a while, she released him and turned to Alex. "Are you Alexander?"

Alex nodded.

"Thank you for saving my son."

"No need for that, Madam. I was just passing by and met your son by chance."

"How about coming in for a meal? We wanted to pay you back."

"Then, I will take your offer."

They went inside. Kenshin\'s mother told them, "I\'m sorry. I need to prepare for the meal. Kenshin, how about you take Alexander for a tour?"

"Sure, Mother. This way Alex."

Alex nodded and followed him. Kenshin lead him to his room. The room itself was not really big, even his room back in Acacia was bigger than this. But, something really caught his attention, he looked at the floor. \'This is Tatami\'

The floor looked really like a Tatami. Alex concludes that this town have a similar Japanese culture.

"So, I will explain about the tournament"

"Can I know where is this first?"

"Ah!" Kenshin looked at him with a weird face.

Alex seems to know Kenshin\'s thoughts. So he lied. "Master found me when I was a baby, he raised me in that forest. He only taught me Martial Arts, he didn\'t teach me about all this. A few days ago, he disappeared and told me to discover the world myself"

"I see." Kenshin suddenly stood up and left. Not long after he came back with a big paper scroll in his hand. He put the scroll on the table and opened it. Alex can see that the scroll just now is a map.

"This is Willow Continent Map. There are four top powers in this continent. They are Mount Hua Sect, Rainbow Flower Sect, Buddha Sect, Heavenly Sword Sect. Each sect lead by a Martial King. I will explain one by one, Mount Hua is a paradise for Alchemist and Forging Master"

"Alchemist and Forging Master? How about Array Master?"

"Array Master? Because of their scarcity, there is no sect for Array Master. But they do have a big guild that place in every town. And Array Master is very respected. Even Mount Hua Sect also wanted Array Master Guild to put their influence inside so they can birth many Array Master."

"I see, then how about the rest?"

"Rainbow Flower Sect is a sect exclusive for women. Buddha Sect taught about Buddha. While Heavenly Sword Sect taught about weapon. Not only the sword but also many other weapons. Their founder is a Sword King, that\'s why it becomes Heavenly Sword Sect, but as time goes by, it becomes more general, they taught spear and so on"

Alex pondered for a moment. He didn\'t have any intention to join Mount Hua since his Alchemy was only a secondary job for him, and using flame so often might expose his Pure Fire. Rainbow Flower sect is a no go for him. For Buddha Sect… He didn\'t want to be a monk. Then, it left him for Heavenly Sword Sect. Well, they also teach spear, right? It might be perfect for the current him.

"Alex, why do you ask about Array Master. Are you one of them? Or maybe you are an Alchemist or Forging Master? Which rank?"

"No, I\'m just curious. I can make some pills…but what is this rank about?" Alex asked like he didn\'t know about it.

"You didn\'t know? You need to register yourself as an Alchemist in Alchemist Guild. They will test your current rank and gave you the badge as your identification. So you are a Rank 1 Alchemist but haven\'t registered."

"I see. Maybe I will visit them later." Alex looked at the map to change the topic. "How about our position?"

"We are in here, Limewatch Town, we are under the protection of Hazel Kingdom, there are three other kingdoms, they are Zhou, Thiveapia, and Southern Kingdom."

\'A Chinese, I don\'t know, and A neutral name. Hmm, very interesting\'. Alex continues listening to Kenshin\'s explanation.

"The kingdoms usually let their young people train in one of the four sects. I will explain about our Town first. In Limewatch town, there are Four families and one city lord. The four families are our Himura House, Soejima House, Itagaki House, and Kusunoki House. Each family has Peak Martial Grandmaster to take the command. In Himura House, he is my Grandfather. The City Lord is 2-Star Martial Lord and my Father is the current head of Himura House

That\'s why I don\'t want to disappoint them. I thought using life and death battle to polish my skill. But it almost takes my life, If you didn\'t come. Even though I\'m like this, my father still proud of me. My mother still care about me. I…"

Alex patted his shoulder. "How about a spar with me? Though I\'m like this, I\'m used to battle. Maybe I can think one or two things"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. But after you explained about the tournament"

"Sure" Kenshin nodded. "All families will hold a tournament every three years. In this tournament, except for the reward. There will be a deacon from many sects including the top four sects, they will recruit you if your performance are outstanding. But usually, for the four sects, they only took the top 10 in this tournament. Then, I will explain about the reward. The top place will get Rank 3 Nourishing Body Pill, second place will get Rank 2 Nourishing Body Pill and Five Hundred Spirit Stones, Third Place will get Rank 2 Nourishing Body Pill and the rest of the top ten will only get Spirit stones.
