Chapter 843 - Lecturing Mithra

"Oh, boy. Here it comes," said Alex while shaking his head. He had been following his own footsteps from the beginning, such as coming out of the castle alone, going to the forest, and meeting a group in distress.
However, it seemed this world had its own way. Like when he was in the castle, there was actually a drama with the prince coming inside the room, dragging a maid, and wanting to execute her. It turned out that the girl was Mithra's reincarnation.
And then, in the forest, he only stopped for a week to raise Mithra's skill. At the same time, her body resilience was also going up. This was a necessary stop because Alex could go faster this way because she should be able to handle a faster speed. From the journey that might take him a week, he might only need five days to reach that place.
After that, this carriage didn't carry a princess. Instead, it looked like it carried a prince and a cunning one at that. Well, he could somehow understand because the one helping them was Mithra. Unfortunate to Mithra, the prince wasn't grateful for the fact that he was helped.
He saw Mithra covered with wounds and exhausted. Her status was also nothing great. Although her strength was a bit powerful, she was too naive to think it was a trap.
In fact, he had been watching her this whole time, especially the sword. And as someone like him, he obviously understood the sharpness of the sword. When the chance finally appeared before him, he decided to use it.
She was a maid anyway, a normal one at that. No one would be coming to save her because she must have separated herself from the current household. If not, there was no way the noble would give a national treasure level sword like this to a mere weakling.
The only answer was the sword coming from a lucky encounter. That was why he seized this sword from her by using this trick. He was ungrateful, yes. But who knows this? No one other than the knights. As long as he forbade them to say anything, he could get away with this.
"I think it's time for me to come out…" Alex wanted to leap but stopped when he saw Mithra stretching her hand to grab the prince's foot.
"Please don't. That is my sword…" Mithra's consciousness was already fuzzy, but she couldn't lose the sword the day Alex gifted her. Rather than thinking about her life, she was focusing on the sword. "Take… my life… or anything. But not that sword…"
The prince looked down and stepped on her hand.
"Argh!"
"This sword is too good for a lowly maid like yours. It's better in the hand of this prince!" He snorted.
Mithra lifted her vision and locked it at the sword, trying to grab it with her other hand.
"Since you want the sword that much, I will kill you with the sword." The prince smiled, raising his sword as if he never had any problem in carrying a sword.
However, when he was about to swing it, his sword suddenly stopped as if there was an invisible wall in front of his sword.
"What is this?"
"Haiz… This is why I hate to help people now." Alex sighed. "There are many ungrateful bastards out there."
With a single snap of his finger, the Spiritual Energy lifted the prince's foot on Mithra's hand, flipping him over while the sword fell right before his penis. On the other hand, the Spiritual Energy lifted Mithra up.
"Who are you?!" The knights turned around, noticing the incoming person and yet, the latter had arrived in front of Mithra before they realized it.
He took a pill and healed all her wounds in an instant.
"Sir Alexander… I am sorry." Mithra let out a tear as if she had done something unforgivable.
"You do what everyone should do. Unfortunately, human nature is different. I have seen the light in their heart, but I have seen more darkness in the human heart. That's why I have only a few friends but a thousand enemies.
"If you still want to help people after this, help one that knows the meaning of the word grateful. And make sure they are not exploiting you. It's fine not to live for yourself, but don't be too fixated on it.
"There were a few hints that you could understand to not let your guard down. The moment you lose your sword with so many strangers will be the time you face death. And if he said the family doesn't let him hold a sword, why the knight beside him let him hold it. If he is weak, the knight should be able to take the sword back before he even snatches them.
"Well, you won't know if they are lying or not, even I don't know in the beginning. As long as you are careful, you can catch these clues yourself. Remember this well. And I believe I am also too excessive for you to learn this in a hard way." Alex lectured her with a gentle expression.
Mithra bit her lips and cried even more as she felt very useless at this moment. She said, "I am sorry… I am sorry…"
"Never mind, let's sol—" Before he finished his words, the prince shouted while pointing his sword toward Alex. "Who are you?!"
"Right. I should take back the sword first… It's my present to her anyway." Alex glanced at him and snapped his finger again.
The sword started shaking before it slipped out of his hand and floated toward Alex. He then handed the sword again to Mithra. "This is the sword. Make sure you don't lose it anymore."
Mithra looked at the sword and nodded repeatedly.
"My Sword! Kill him!" The prince gritted his teeth.
"This is the second lesson. No matter how cunning you are, if you can't even stay composed, you are bound to make a huge mistake. That's why people train the heart first before training the mind." Alex smiled.
One of the knights charged at him, swinging his sword toward the neck. Alex didn't move an inch and let the sword hit his neck.
'Got him!' The knight thought.
Unfortunately, his expectation was destroyed the moment he heard a clicking sound and saw his sword breaking into half and pierce the carriage.
Alex then turned around and flicked the knight's forehead… Helmet.
The flick didn't look strong, but the moment it connected, the head was blown away, and the iron helmet shredded into pieces. The headless body fell to the ground while the blurt spurt out of it was contained by the Spiritual Energy.
"What?!" The shock didn't come only from their group, but also from Mithra. Although she had seen how powerful Alex's strength was, it was still a sight to behold, especially the trail on the ground that had been destroyed by the shock wave alone.
Alex didn't have much patience, so he waved his hand and controlled his Spiritual Energy to force their body to explode. Everyone, except two people, the captain and the prince.
"What just happened…" The prince fell down and pointed his finger toward Alex. "You monster!"
The knight captain gritted his teeth and ran toward the prince, looking at Alex with fear. "Your excellency. We know we're wrong, please let us go this time. This person is the third prince of the Wales Kingdom, so if your excellency kills him, the entire kingdom will chase you down."
"Sir Alexander… I think it's best to drop the matter here…" Mithra tugged his hand with a guilty expression. She didn't want Alex to get into trouble like this because of her mistake.
However, Alex only smiled. "I have destroyed many kingdoms far stronger than your kingdom. Do you think I am afraid of your kingdom? What a joke."
He grabbed a sword on the ground and said, "I will be showing you what it means to be a swordsman."
Alex appeared before the knight captain while swinging his sword from above. "If you don't want to cut something, even the thinnest leaf won't be cut."
Just like how he described it, the sword that was supposed to cut the knight captain into half suddenly smashed him like a hammer. It pounced him into minced meat.
"And if you want to cut something, then cut everything, including Heaven itself." Alex swung the sword again, creating a shock wave that cut the prince into half.
However, Mithra unintentionally looked up, finding the cloud split into two. This was the most shocking thing she had ever seen in her life, and she believed nothing would replace it pretty soon.
Alex looked at her and let out a sigh. He sorted out his thoughts first while waiting for her to recover from the shock.
'I have gotten a few pieces of important information. The first is the place where I can find all the treasures that my previous life left for me. I don't know if I will get it or not, but I think I will go there since there is another important thing that I should get there. I don't know what it's though.
'Then, there is a beast terrorizing the entire universe. The location of the seal… It seems the previous me wants me to get stronger than him without following in his footstep. That's why he only gives me knowledge, not memory.
'The seal seems to be weakening due to the passing time and my reincarnation, so I need to reach God King Stage as soon as possible to fix this problem… Now that I think about it, that guy who attacked me back then said something about lifespan, right? It's as if he can see other people's lifespans…
'Don't tell me…' Alex furrowed his eyebrows. 'The beast itself is strong, stronger than a God King. If not, my past self won't lose against it. However, the fact that the mysterious person came to me made it look like he knew how long the lifespan I have left.
'I don't know his objective, but I think he was traveling to go around the world to gather all strong people to stop the beast, and I somehow met him. Still, I think I should go to that person again to know about the full reason. Who knows, I can learn some information…
'That's it then, let me calculate my current course as soon as I go to outer space. First, I will go to the Devil World and bring back Alicia. Then return to Eulja and visit parents-in-law in the lower world. Then I can visit Stina's World. Then, I go to that place called Encore or my previous life's treasury.
'There is also my promise to Song Jiaoren. I guess the Blackwade Clan is next. Just dropping by is fine though. Only after that can I go to finish the promise with the former Fire God to get the full version of Fire Authority. This technique has been strengthening my technique since I first got it. If not, I might have a harder time defeating my opponent…
'Finally, I will have time to spare with anyone else… Haiz, it's indeed a long journey.' Alex sighed and noticed that Mithra had calmed her mind and waited for him, who seemed to have lost in thought.
"Yo… It seems you are fine now."
"Yes. Thank you for your concern, Sir Alex." She nodded before glancing at the aftermath. This would bring trouble to Alex if he left it this way.
Alex noticed it too and destroyed all evidence with his Pure Fire. Even the blood on the ground evaporated. Still, as strong as might be, he couldn't return the ground as it was, but it wasn't like others could understand it with that alone. They would only think there was a great battle around this area and didn't know what kind of battle it was.
"Done. Let's go? We need to go to the Phoenix Nest this time." Alex smiled and grabbed Mithra's waist.
"Yes." Mithra was slightly embarrassed, but that soon got replaced by fear because the speed was far faster than when he brought her to the forest. Of course, no teleportation so she could withstand some pressure later in her training.
