The mont he entered the world, Lin Xingzhi had been waiting for him.
"You have finally returned." She gently smiled. "I've co to get you."
"Thank you." Alex nodded with a smile before noticing another presence coming from his left. He turned around and found four people standing side by side.
The first two were his wives, Alicia and Firia.
"You two have co back?" Alex widened his eyes.
"Yes. We have returned since a month ago. Besides, soone also wants to see you." Alicia nodded and glanced at the two behind her.
Alex cupped his hands and bowed his head. "I am sorry for not visiting you this whole ti, Master."
"Haha! I have only taught you a few things, so it's normal for you to not call Master, but I will shalessly claim that position though." Maxwell laughed out loud before getting elbowed by the female beside him. "Wifey, I am not a masochist. Rather than an elbow, I prefer a kiss."
"Kiss is special. You will only get it back ho." She stuck out her tongue before looking at Alex with a smile. "So, this is Alexander Sirius."
"Madam, it's my honor to et you." Alex smiled at this beautiful silver-haired woman. "Thank you for taking care of my wife this whole ti. I will always rember it."
"You don't need to mind. Firia and I have many similarities, so I enjoyed teaching her. This might be the first ti we et, so I think I will introduce myself. I am rry Evans. To think that when I was a Rank 9 God, the Nature Goddess asked to teach your wife, I was dumbfounded, you know.
"I an, my strength is still so low, but I can get stronger alongside her. Even though it looks like I am shaless enough to get stronger together with her disciple, the process was truly enjoyable."
"Who dares to say that, Madam? I shall knock them with so senses if soone says it." Alex smiled.
rry seed to have undergone a level-up. From Rank 9 God, she had beco Rank 5 God at this pace while Firia almost reached Rank 8 God.
"Anyway, I have been following your story and benefited from your practice, so I won't say much. All in all, it's really a pleasure to et you. Besides, it's truly nice to see soone from the sa lower world. We have so many things to discuss." She smiled and bowed her head. "Oh, one more. If this guy is too shaless for you, I can smack his head a few tis."
"What?! You want to smack my head? What if I beco an idiot? Will you care for for the rest of your life?"
"I do," rry answered without hesitation.
Seeing how she replied without getting embarrassed, Maxwell scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to say anymore. He thought for a mont and said playfully. "How about one smack on the head in exchange for one spank? You hit once and I hit you once. It's give and take, rig—Gah!"
"One elbow strike is not in agreent, right?" rry smiled after hitting him again on the stomach.
"Wife, you are ruthless, but I will consider it your way of flirting with ."
They chuckled, watching their interactions.
"Anyway, I do have one important thing that I want to talk about." Maxwell's expression turned serious. "You should know about Pill Tower, right?"
"The one you visited not long ago?" Lin Xingzhi asked.
"Yes. I believe you should go to that place to gain recognition. It's fine to do it as a mysterious person or Alexander Sirius. There are many benefits that you can rip, so that's my suggestion. If I am not wrong, it's the sa as Array World. Alicia and Firia have their own recognition, so I think it won't be a problem. Besides, there are often competitions there if they get a rare herb.
"If you join the Alchemist Competition, you can imdiately win since no one can refine their pill together with your Godly Pure Fire, but to not make a scene, it's better to participate as a couple. There are competitions for that, so don't worry.
"As for Array Master, I am not sure myself. After all, they are focused on research like how to easily produce an array or sothing similar. You can climb your rank to Elder Rank to gain their support. That's all, I guess." Maxwell explained. "Alicia can explain the rest about this place."
"I understand. Thank you for your concern, Master. I will try to see if I can do that right now or not." Alex bowed his head.
"It's fine. We are going back right now." He smiled and looked at his wife. "Wifey, do you want to say sothing?"
"Nope. I have said all of it earlier. And why are you so rushed to go ho?" She glanced at him with narrowed eyes.
"Hehe…It's been a decade, Wifey. Can we?"
"…"
"I suppose we can. We will go back then." She smiled.
Alex didn't know what to say and decided to wave his hand.
"See you later. Do co to my planet if you are bored! I almost forgot…You haven't t my kid yet!" Maxwell waved his hand while activating the Teleportation Array.
"If you are trying to do that, you need to beat the Five Guardians and Six Elental Gods first!" Lin Xingzhi playful stuck out her tongue.
"Don't tease . I am shalessly using my privilege as his master!" As soon as he said that, the Teleportation Array took them away.
Alex shook his head helplessly. "Who are in the castle right now?"
"Anna and Anya are waiting for you there. Even Letizia and Evelyn are there together with Leka and Heilo. Unfortunately, Sherry is still in that world while Stina and Kyle are challenging themselves in another place. From what I can see, their daughter, Ellen, is trying to pass the throne to soone else because she wishes to gather again with Stina and Kyle as family. I will be supporting her, so don't worry about her." Lin Xingzhi explained.
"I see. Has Letizia ford a contract yet with Heilo?"
"Not yet. She is waiting for you first."
Alex let out a long sigh. "That girl…"
"Fufu, I have my fill teasing her." Alicia smirked.
"…" Alex glanced at her and looked in another direction. "Anyway, let's go back first. I will deal with the others later."
"Sure thing." Lin Xingzhi nodded.
Alex then snapped his finger, teleporting all of them to the castle.
When he arrived in the garden where they used to play, he heard soone voice, humming in happiness.
Alex followed the sound and saw a white-haired female. She wore a white shirt and a black skirt. She seed to be trying to dress like a maid but with a bit more fashion when Alex saw that black robe hung from her waist, looking like an apron but a black one.
He instantly recognized that figure and called her na. "Letizia."
Letizia's body shook. Her training stopped for a second as she stiffly turned around, finding Alex and the others.
"Master!" She covered her mouth and hid her sword.
"I'm back." Alex smiled.
"By the way, I caught her red-handed when she asked a maid where to get their uniform." Lin Xingzhi smiled. "I don't want to see her dress like that, so in the end, I asked soone to design this. It's inspired by a maid uniform, but with just a different color and style to make it better."
Letizia panicked as she kept blinking at Lin Xingzhi, pleading her not to tell Alex anymore regarding that matter.
"I don't know why, but after llowing a bit, she is this shy. Maybe this is her true self?"
Letizia looked down while playing with her fingers. She decided to explain. "I was never comfortable to et soone actually. The reason I choose to be bold is to prevent anyone from looking down on my sect. But since I have no more burden about that, I have returned to my past self… I apologize. If Master wants to change back, I will do it."
Alex shook his head helplessly and patted her head. "It's fine. Do what you want. No one is forcing you into this place."
"I also want to report!" Anna's voice suddenly echoed in the garden.
Alex and the others turned around, finding Anna and Anya heading toward them.
Anna leaped toward Letizia and hugged her from behind. "Look at her! She is this adorable, but Sister Xingzhi wanted to taint her with her collections. We need to burn down those collections!"
"What?!" Lin Xingzhi and Anya shouted at the sa ti. They glared at Anna. "They are the cultures that we have found all this ti. There are three thousand years worth of collections there!"
"…" Alex blinked his eyes a few tis, not knowing what to say about this matter.
Anna facepald and slowly pushed Letizia to the side. "Let's go. We need to avoid these two perverts!"
"Even though you are a pervert too, Anna? You are a closet pervert who doesn't dare to show it even in front of your husband but goes wild every ti you do it." Anya narrowed his eyes.
"And whose fault it was?" Anna glanced at Lin Xingzhi.
"Alright, alright." Alex tried to stop them. "No need to argue. Just be true to yourself, I don't really mind."
Anna released Letizia. "By the way, what will you do with her?"
"Well, I have my plan. For now, let's enjoy ourselves today, alright?" Alex smiled.
"Right! Let's set a party here!" Alicia decided to support it to change the topic.
"Yes. I will call Rose and Evelyn here." Firia nodded in agreent.
"I will call Korzan and the others there." Anna also left.
"Then, I will go to Leka and the others." Anya volunteered.
"We will grab so wine for us." Lin Xingzhi smirked and left.
In the garden only left Alex and Letizia.
Her heart beat rapidly as she looked around and said, "I will grab so chairs and other things."
"Letizia…" Alex didn't want to miss the chance that the others gave and called her na.
"Ehm, Master."
Alex smiled and walked closer. "Sorry for neglecting you this whole ti…Wait, I should apologize for drawing a line, I guess."
"Master was not wrong." She shook her head. "I have almost destroyed all the things you built up that day. But you never ntioned it again and kept helping . It's who should be apologizing for all the troubles I brought."
Alex patted her head. "Well, rather than talking about this, how about we change the topic?"
"Ye-yes."
"How about we go on a trip after this? I an, I have gone to many places with Lin Xingzhi and the others but never went to a single place with you. Well, Evelyn might co." Alex scratched the back of his head.
"I understand. Besides, I don't know what I should do, so Evelyn is the best choice." She shyly nodded.
Alex then gently raised her chin with his right hand as his head slowly got closer to her. Letizia didn't reject him and closed her eyes.
The sudden kiss was mixed with a sense of relief in Letizia's heart. She always thought that she wasn't worthy of being with Alex because she was nothing but a burden to him. Unlike Alicia and Firia now, she had nothing to show him at the mont.
After all, the two were like her in the past, unable to help him. But Firia now could teach Alex about Alchemy while Alicia could handle Array better than Alex.
On the other hand, she had nothing but her Pure Ice, whose Sacrificial Elent had been taken away. Even her strength wasn't that much, nor she had a specialty like the two.
When Alex released her lips, she asked with an intoxicated tone. "Master, is it really okay for to be with you?"
"I don't want soone because of their strength. And I know that I want you because you are Letizia." Alex smiled as he kissed her again.
