450 Races

"Alright, I understand. The World's will also want me to answer all of your questions." The priest said.

"I have a lot of questions, but first of all, I still don't know your name."

"Ah, my name is August. Your simple priest."

"Then, are there any records about the trials?" Alex asked his first question.

"There are many records regarding that matter, but I think only a few of them are useful for you. The reason for that is because the ruler will decide the trial. However, from all the records, a few hints come.

"Dragon Race is proud of their strength, so from all the records, they are fighting. Since you are from a younger generation, they should also make their younger generation become the challenge. However, from what I know, their younger generation is equal to a new Tier 6 mage."

"Tier 6 magician?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows after hearing this new term.

"I will explain it to you later, when I will talk about the Human Race. But we shall move on first to the second race, Phoenix Race. They are proud of their fire, so they usually force you to fight with their fire… and If I am not wrong, they have a special s.p.a.ce to hold their trial. I don't know about the details, but they seem to be testing your will.

"Further on, we have Angel Race in the sky. Just like their name, they want to see your heart and mind. There is a certain line that is very accurate from the record. 'Good people will be revered whereas Bad people will be vanquished. Know yourself and you shall go beyond the path.'

"As for the Naga Race. There are not many records about this one… and most of them are only telling the place, so I'm sorry I can't help you with this. If you want to meet the trial, you shall go to the red sea where the blood of warriors gathered that even turns the blue sea into the sea of blood.

"And you might want to get the Elven Race as your first as they are the closest to us where you don't need to cross the ocean where the Naga Race rules… The Elven Race is proud of their element manipulation as they are blessed by nature. One of their princesses even gets a Pure Wind Element, so you need to be careful." August finally finished his explanation.

Alex frowned when he heard another Pure Element beside him and Letizia, especially when it was coming from Elven Race. He remembered his previous relations.h.i.+p with the Elven race… and he certainly did not want to remember that… specifically the Elven Queen. Still, a Pure Element would be trouble.

Still, there was one thing that piqued his interest. "What do you emphasize the ocean that much?"

"Naga Race rules the ocean, and with sixty percent of this world filled with water, they are basically the strongest race out there. And when someone crosses the sea, they usually need a permit. Even the royal family of each race needs a truce agreement with the Naga Race if they want to go to another continent."

"Then, why don't they create transportation that can fly?"

"The distance of each continent is pretty far. When a Tier 5 or even Tier 6 mage fly across the ocean, they would need at least two weeks. In the meantime, they will get constant hara.s.sment from the Naga Race, and if you fly too high, the Angel Race won't like you.

"And they have already created transportation that can fly, but compared to the boat, they are not really cost-effective, so the people abandon that idea.

"Besides, although the Naga Race would only have half of their power when they come out to the land, their number is the most troublesome thing. Just imagine if you need to fly while crossing a few thousand sea creatures… you might already die. Meanwhile, if you fly too high, the entire Angel Race will attack you."

"I see. That would be troublesome…"

"That's why I feel you want to buy the special pa.s.s from the Flores Kingdom, the only Kingdom for the Human Race. It was pretty expensive though." He said.

"If possible, I don't really want to deal with the royal family… since I have pretty bad records with all the kingdoms I met." Alex said. He certainly had a bad memory with all the kingdoms he had, even the Acacia Kingdom, as they forced the marriage thing to him. It was a happy ending for that though.

"Then, it will be a bit troublesome for you." August made a troubled expression. "Only the royal family would have the pa.s.s to visit all the Races. If you want to go the hard way, the pa.s.s will only allow you to cross for one time only. In other words, if you buy the pa.s.s to go to Rigan Continent, you can only go there and need to buy another pa.s.s if you want to go back or go to another continent."

"I don't mind paying extra," Alex said. He could easily make money with his Alchemy or Array. So, he did not care about the money.

Anya looked at him and sent a thought transmission. "Alex, we only have half of the wealth which is one hundred fifty million Spirit Stones with us as the other half is in Anna's hand to establish our foundation in the Northern Continent… And we don't even know whether this world has the same currency."

Alex thought she was right, so he took out his Spirit Stone and let August see it. "By the way, is this the currency?"

"Ah, yes. They are called Spirit Stones, but I don't know if you have the same name."

"We have the same name." Alex nodded. Since he knew it was the same, then he did not need to mind about money. "How much is that pa.s.s?"

"One pa.s.s is ten million Spirit Stones. This is usually hard for someone without background, especially since you need to have the requirement to get the pa.s.s. So, I will explain how you can earn money in this Kingdom. First of All, I need to explain the kingdom first.

"The Kingdom of Flores... it's a stable neutral country with a population of 25 million. It is a world filled with magic. Magic is traded like common goods. It has become a part of daily life. And there are people who use magic to make a living. Those people are called "Mages".

"Mages belong to various guilds and perform their jobs on request. Countless guilds have been formed in this country. You need to be a recognized mage if you want to buy the pa.s.s as they are issued by the guild itself.

"I know you are strong, but strength alone can't make you a recognized mage. You need to complete missions until you reach a certain rank and become a recognized mage. As for the details, you need to ask the guild itself, and I don't want to tell you which guild to choose, but there are only four guilds that have their own branches in all continents. They are Pixy, Basilisk, Empyrean, and Storm guild. If you want to travel to all the continents, you might want to join one of these guilds."

Alex nodded his head before presenting him a pill. "How about this pill? Can I trade them for something?"

August took the pill and observed it before shaking his head. "There is a huge amount of energy inside this tiny size ball. However, there is no such thing as this. If you want to trade this, I am afraid you will become like me and driven away from the human community."

Alex looked down, weighing something. This was certainly troublesome for him if he could not trade his pill since it was his main income. Still, it was true that if his pill suddenly appeared out of nowhere and proved to be effective. He might become a recognized inventor, albeit it came with a certain risk.

He might be targeted by a person with interest or might become heresy in the community's eyes. He was even wondering how a person from Earth could sell the things from his world in the new world… All he could see was they became a genius inventor in the community's eyes, but when Alex was presented with this problem, he could see another path, which was the path of heresy.

He then took out an Array Plate and presented it to him. "How about this?"

"This is… magic rune. And from the look of it, it has a thousand symbols and makes this a Tier 4 rune." August examined again.

"!!!" Alex smirked inwardly as he finally saw another light. He presented to him his Rank 4 Teleportation Array, and since he recognized it, he should be able to sell it to raise money. And the only problem would be to rack up some achievement in a Guild and get the pa.s.s.

Alex continued asking him question after question until he had enough. And what piqued his interest was the fact they were hunted by the people of the Northern Continent as Dragon or other races like that were useful for them. The people over there wanted to enslave them for various things.

And after a few millennials pa.s.sed, the people over there should have forgotten about them. As long as they hide and get stronger in the Northern Continent, they should be able to get stronger and create an influence to protect themselves.

He also found out that this Tier thingy was actually a cultivation stage, but all the people actually used elements or magic as their weapons. So, Alex's Sword or Spear was considered weird. In other words, Alex decided to practice his Element in this place.

The next day, Alex came out of the house before the priest woke up. Anya accompanied him on this journey.

"We go to the Mage Guild and become popular enough to buy the pa.s.s. Then we will go to the Elven Kingdom to challenge their trial. As for the next continent, we will think about it later." Anya said. "Do you want to call the others?"

Alex shook his head. "I will try by myself in this world since I have been relying on all of you this entire time. It might be a good time to try to fight all by myself."

"But we are your power. There is nothing wrong about relying on your own power." She said worriedly.

Alex simply smiled and left a peck on her forehead. "I never treat all of you as my power. All of you here are my family. How can I treat my family like that."

"Anyway, even though you and I are Tier 5, I think you should go back to the card first," Alex said. Tier 1 was equal to Foundation Stage, whereas the highest Tier in this world was Tier 6, which was the Martial Emperor, the same applied to his Array. Since they were in this world, Alex decided to go along with this Tier thingy.

Anya was taken aback by the kiss and froze. She was filled with joy and said nothing more before coming back to his card.

Alex then stored the card and finally went toward the Human Kingdom according to the direction of the priest.

Unbeknownst to them, the priest had woken up and prayed once again.

'The Blessing of Ancestor, The Blessing of the World, shall accompany you. The Supreme finally returns. Long Live.' He said. However, the priest's eyes were glowing like he was possessed by something.

Even Lin Xingzhi in Eulja sighed while staring upon the stars. "To think he came to that world… Was this fate or coincidence?

"Well, he was the one who liberated that world as it was his former friend's hometown. Even in this life, it brought him to that place. Still… what kind of surprise there, even I did not know about it.

"Let the journey begin."
