Chapter 236: Sovereign



"And you complained when I suggested putting him inside awe cube."

"This is different. I\'m just taking sample to get more information on him."

MingYue sighed and didn\'t respond further. In her perspective taking blood is no different than Awecube.

There are many thing that could be done with blood like that. For example putting curse or locating the blood owner.

Of course it won\'t work with just any blood, it need a clean one that taken directly from the body.

"Should we move him?" MingYue asked.

"No, it\'s better to wake him up here."

The anesthetic was quite potent. On a normal awakener, it could knock them out cold for an hour, but Alex didn\'t want to wait that long.

He took out another item resembling incense. "MingYue, wear your gas mask."

"Can\'t I just hold my breath?" MingYue asked. She disliked wearing a gas mask, as it made breathing harder.

"Well, don\'t blame me later; I\'ve already warned you," Alex replied. He then broke the incense into small parts, putting the rest back in his storage ring.

Swish!

Using qi, he ignited the incense, and a yellow fog began spreading in the area. Alex already had a gas mask on, fully covering his nose.

Despite holding her breath, MingYue quickly felt nauseous as the smoke reached her nose.

The smell was so pungent that even without inhaling it, its effects were immediate upon contact. Seeing MingYue\'s gross expression, Alex chuckled.

In one swift motion, MingYue donned her gas mask. Her cold eyes locked sharply onto Alex, hearing his laugh.

"You did that on purpose, didn\'t you?"

In her mind, Alex knew she didn\'t like wearing gas masks even before now.

He could have warned her about the unbearable smell and explained it like usual, but no, he lit the incense directly.

Before Alex could respond, a puking sound drew their attention.

The poor elf woke up with a headache and nausea. He than vomited on the ground, unable to handle the smell.

He felt as if someone was rocking his brain from the inside while twisting his intestines.

Alex took a cup of spiced water and placed it beside the man, who drank it without thinking.

Looking at this, Alex couldn\'t help but thought.

\'Fall from a tree, get knocked out, then smell Emperor Skunk Incense to wake up, and drink Aetheric Dragon Piss to refresh—what a bad day to be an elf.\'

But the elf didn\'t know this. Despite its origins, he felt refreshed after drinking it.

Thankfully, the Emperor Skunk Incense didn\'t last long. Even with his abundant life force, Alex wonder could the plant here survive the smell.

He also doubted the filter in his mask would have lasted another second before spoiling. As the smell dispersed, Alex removed his mask.

MingYue eyed him suspiciously for a few seconds before removing hers. She wanted to ensure the smell was really gone.

She know another second with the smell she will probably vomit, even with her strong constitution.

No matter how strong someone is, they can\'t underestimate the damage a foul stench can do.

As the man felt refreshed, he began to take in his surroundings. Noticing other people nearby, he quickly grew alert and studied them. The first appear in his view was Alex, who stood closest.

The man\'s gaze turned cautious at Alex\'s strange clothing, and his presence made the man wary. But when he saw Alex\'s face, he froze.

His face went pale, and his eyes filled with fear.

He quickly knelt on the ground and bowed his head, not daring to look them in the face.

"Please, s... spare me! I didn\'t realize I was in the presence of a Sover...#*$n."

Alex made out some words, but for MingYue, it was complete gibberish.

"Alex, translation," MingYue said.

"Give me a minute; he\'s speaking in an altered Edonia language."

"Edonia?" MingYue was surprised to hear this.

Many possibilities crossed her mind; \'Does this mean a survivor from the vampire race is here? Or is it leftover knowledge from Alucard\'s part? And the way the man kneels before me...\'

MingYue was no stranger to this scene, which was similar to how people bowed to cultivators in her world.

Meanwhile, Alex used his ability to translate the rest of the words.

Since he already knew part of it, using his ability wasn\'t difficult. It didn\'t take long for him to finish.

"He\'s calling us Sovereign and asking us to spare him."

"Sovereign, is that like royalty here?"

"Maybe." Alex then focused on the man. "Why did you call me Sovereign?"

The man\'s body trembled with fear. Instead of answering, he pleaded, "Please, sir, I didn\'t know you were here. I have a family at home. Please, spare me."

Alex frowned at the man\'s insistence. He decided to play along. "If you want me to spare you, answer my question."

The elf gulped, carefully choosing his next words. "It\'s because of your crimson eyes, sir."

Alex raised an eyebrow and began interrogating him. Based on the information he gathered, the area had one large city surrounded by many villages.

The populace was divided into three classe;: Sovereign, noble, and grassroots. Grassroots were commoners like him.

Those who were taken by the Sovereign class or made significant contributions would be promoted to noble. Only those with red eyes, like Alex, belonged to the highest class.

The Sovereign had complete control over the other classes and could do anything they wanted without repercussions.

Laws only bound them if they committed a crime against other Sovereigns. This was why the man feared Alex.

He had heard many horror stories about the Sovereign.

They treated the other classes like toys, with the grassroots getting the worst treatment. At least when dealing with nobles, the Sovereign would consider other Sovereigns\' reactions.
