Gacha Sovereign Chapter 446 Passed Away

“He is your uncle, Honey.” She said with a smile. “You said you always want to meet your uncle, and here he is.”

“Uncle?” Alexa looked at Alex, confused. She then turned back to her mother, “Mother, you are lying. You said my uncle is God and won’t come back. But… uncle’s face is similar to the statue.”

“Statue?” Alex looked at Lea.

“Uh…” Lea did not know what to say. In fact, the whole truth about the upper world was only known by his teacher, Marco. As for the others, including his family from Alicia’s family or Firia’s family, all of them only knew that he became God and would only watch us from Heaven.

Alex made a chuckle when he saw this. He patted her head and said, “I am Alexander Sirius, your uncle. I am coming here to see my little niece over here.”

“Really?” As one would expect from a two years old little girl, she was tricked already. Alex had been her idol, just like a little girl that idolized a character from a fairy tale. Alex’s story had become a common fairy tale in this world, and everyone had heard it, including this little girl.

“Yes.” He tried to stretch his hands to this girl, trying to carry her on his hand. The little girl came to him happily. He then turned to Lea and asked, “By the way, what are you going to do after this?”

“Hmm… I don’t have any plans and will go back the day after tomorrow.”

“No escort or whatsoever?” Alex asked.

“There is an escort, and they are waiting for me in the town.” She said. “Since you want to go back, how about coming with me?”

“Hmm… my time is a bit limited, so how about we go there right now? We can arrive at home instantly.” Alex said.

“Uncle is lying.”

“How am I lying?” He smiled and asked.

“Alexa’s home is far. We need two days just to go back.” Alexa pouted.

“Of course, Uncle is not lying to you. Uncle can show it to you if you don’t believe uncle… after your mother agrees, that is.”

“Really?” Alexa’s eyes brightened as she looked at her mother with an expectant look.

Lea shook her head helplessly. “Can we bring the soldiers with us?”

“Sure.” Alex did not mind since there was basically nothing wrong, even if teleported all of them. No one would dare question him anyway.

“Let’s go to the soldiers first. After that, we will go back.”

“Yay!” Alexa raised her hands, full of joy. She seemed to be pretty eager to see it and urged her mother. “Mother, let’s go.”

Lea could only shake her head and walk.

Before then, Alex put on his mask.

“Uncle, why are you using a mask again?” Alexa did not like his mask. “Uncle is better than my father and grandfather. Why is uncle hiding it?”

“So, little Alexa does not like the mask?”

“Uhm.” She nodded.

“If your uncle does not wear a mask, he will be surrounded by people, you know. At that time, you won’t get your uncle’s attention.” Lea suddenly spoke.

“!!!” Alexa looked down with a sad expression. “Uhm… Mask is good.”

Not long after, they finally arrived at the inn near the dungeon. It seemed that Alicia’s butler, butler Ji, became Lea’s butler to help her with Alexa. So, when he greeted Lea and Alexa, he suddenly noticed the masked man that was carrying Alexa.

“This is…” He looked at the masked man, vigilantly.

“Butler Ji, it’s me.”

“Ah… that voice.” He was shocked by the voice. He remembered that voice, and when Alex showed his face, he froze. “It… it is really you.”

“Well, I will need your help to gather the soldiers. We are going back right now.” Alex said.

“Un…understood.” It seemed he had not recovered by the sight of Alex. He walked away like a robot. Even Alexa was laughing at him.

Not long after, he came back with all of the soldiers. Alexa urged him after everyone was gathered. “Uncle, uncle.”

“Of course, let’s go back.” Alex smiled. He then said to Alexa, “Then how about little Alexa close her eyes and count one to three. We will arrive back home if little Alexa does that.”

“Really?” She immediately covered her eyes with her little hands and counted.

“1…”

Alex then flicked his finger as a teleportation array appeared on the ground. They then disappeared from the place, and before they knew it, they were already inside the Rizertia mansion.

“3…” Alexa immediately opened her eyes and saw her home right away. Her mouth opened in surprise.

Because of the limitation of his power, Alex could only make rank 2 teleportation array at the moment. The soldiers and Lea could see a few different places when they were teleporting, albeit they thought it was only the aftereffect of the teleportation.

“Who are you!” The soldiers that guarded the gate finally noticed there was a group of people inside the mansion. They immediately surrounded them with their weapon.

Yet, with a single shout from Lea, they immediately recognized them. “Stop, it is me.”

“Princess Lea…” The guards immediately kneeled.

Even the grand duke and the lady, as well as an unknown guy, were coming out because of the ruckus. They were surprised that Lea and Alexa had come back when they were supposed to come back in a few days.

“Lea? What happens? Why have you come back?” The unknown guy shouted as he looked at them. The unknown guy had the same age as Lea. His appearance was average, and his strength was peak rank 6.

Shocked by the sight of Alexa was carried by a masked man, he instinctively roared while charging at the masked man. “What have you done to my wife and daughter!”

Alex was surprised by this as he instinctively stretched his hand to the front before flicking to that guy’s forehead.

“Boom!” Before they knew it, the guy already flew back and crashed on the mansion’s wall.

The soldiers immediately took their weapons, and even the grand duke frowned upon seeing this.

“Aiya, I did that out of instinct. Don’t worry. I have held back.” Alex said as he took out his mask again. Alexa said she wanted to see the surprised face of her grandparents like Butler Ji. So, when Alex took off his mask, they were dumbfounded. “Ya, Father-in-law, mother-in-law. It’s been a few years.”

“You… you are Alex…” The Grand Duke and the lady froze.

“That face…”

“The Fire God…”

The soldiers also recognized his face, especially the soldiers that had been working for this family for years. After all, they had seen his face directly. They immediately kneeled in the ground in the form of worship.

“I am sorry, he is usually a cool guy, but when it concerns Alexa or me, he becomes overprotective,” Lea said with a helpless face.

“Yay… Uncle is strong. He can send father flying with only his finger!” Alexa was not even bothered by her father, who was buried by a pile of rubbles and praised Alex, her idol.

“How about we come inside first. The sun is almost set anyway.” Alex suggested.

“Ah, sure sure. Let’s come inside first. We can talk after eating dinner.” The grand duke finally nodded.

…

A few minutes later,

Lea’s husband was bowing his head to Alex. “I am very sorry.”

“Haha… don’t mind about it.” Alex simply shrugged the matter away. It seemed his name was Louis, and he had climbed his way in the military by his own strength. And before he knew it, he was smitten by Lea, and after a series of events, Lea decided to marry him.

“Let’s go. Dinner is ready.” Lea, beside him, helped him up and came to their own seat.

And it seemed Alexa was attached to Alex and sat on his lap.

“Alexa, you can’t do that. You need to sit in your own seat.” Lea reprimanded her of her manner.

“No. I don’t want to. I want to sit here.” Alexa said while hugging Alex as tight as possible, not wanting to be dragged by her mother.

“It’s fine, Sister Lea.”

The others looked at this weirdly but did not say anything. Lea finally gave up, and they proceeded with the dinner.

It was a silent dinner while Alex was feeding Alexa the food. He did not need to eat anyway.

After the dinner, Alex then took out a few letters and handed it to everyone except Louis. He handed them by utilizing Spiritual Energy, so it looked like they were flying to them.

“Alex, what is this?”

“A letter from Alicia for all of you.” He answered. Alicia had prepared a letter for everyone, including butler Ji. As for Firia, she was the only child of her family, so she only prepared a letter for her parents, which Alex would give to them later.

“She…” They were taken aback by this letter. All their memory about Alicia was she being half-dead.

“She is fine. Although for several reasons, only I could go back here.” Alex smiled.

“Uncle… it’s not fair. Everyone gets a present, I want a present too.” Alexa begged with teary eyes.

“Your father is not too, little Alexa.” Louis sobbed on the side, forgotten once again by his own daughter.

“Little Alexa, you need to be a good girl. Now, let us take a bath first.” Lea tried to bring her away. Although she was curious about Alicia’s letter, she held back and decided to read it after Alexa fell asleep.

“No no… I don’t want to. I want a present.” Alexa shook her head and kept clinging on Alex.

Alex patted her head and said, “Good girl. Take a bath first, and Uncle will give you a present later.”

“Really?” Alexa looked at Alex, a bit doubtful.

“Yeah.”

Reluctant as she was, she ultimately followed her mother and left the room.

He then looked at the grand duke. “Still, Father-in-law, aren’t you cursed or something? You get another girl in the house. How about having a boy?”

“Pfft.” Mia and the madam tried to hold back their laughter, while Louis seemed shaking as he was scared of the grand duke after so many training sessions with him.

“You brat. You can tease your father-in-law now? Having a daughter is better than having a son. Just look at my brother. His son continues to practice in the middle of nowhere even though he is a crown prince. I might not be able to hold myself back if I have such a son.” He looked at Alex with strict eyes before eventually smirking. “You have grown up, and your personality has become better than years ago.”

Alex simply smiled. He recalled his gloomy and dark self from a few years ago and realized how far he progressed. “By the way, is my teacher still in the academy? I would like to visit him tonight or maybe tomorrow.”

All the people in the room were frozen when they heard that question and did not know what to do. The grand duke tried to answer him, “This… Two years after you left, he… passed away.”

“Wha-!” Alex was taken aback, could not believe his own ears.

“Before he passed away, he said he did not have any regret left in this world. Having toiled as hard as he did, watching you grow up is the best experience he could ever have in his life… He passed away with a smile.”

“!!!” Alex supported himself on the table as the news hit him hard. He wanted to cry for this, but even in his death door, his teacher was still smiling. He could only endure this pain of losing someone in his heart. “I see… Where is his grave?”

“At his house in the academy. He said the place had so many memories with you, so he wanted to be buried there.” The grand duke said while closing his eyes. He knew how hurt Alex was.

“I see. I will visit him tomorrow.”
