Chapter 397 Virility
After all, the eye being seemed to have control over the portal entrance. But never in his wildest dream did he think this was also the place where his father lived his life for a long time.
With this understanding, Alex also got some picture of the coalition and some guesses about their goal.
"They sure have a huge ambition," Alex thought, then told Zhu Zheng he could leave. He didn't ask him directly about the coalition since Alex was already sure he would not be able to tell him anything.
He then looked back at the arena; the match was almost finished.
The one fighting now wielded a spear with finesse; every time he moved, it created a silhouette of a dragon that did further damage to the target.
"A spirit weapon can be used like that?" Alex asked.
Moria let out a chuckle, "It's possible if the spirit is strong, and the material boosts its presence, a complete synergy.
But this is very rare, as for the one you see, I hear it was enhanced because it was soaked in some kind of miraculous water."
Alex's lips twitched, but he ignored Moria's remarks. His focus was back on the spirit weapon, and his eyes lit up as he found another way to become stronger.
'As long as I strengthen the spirit and add some more material… but doesn't this make things more dangerous?
If the spirit is too strong, it can attack the master back; a normal bond will not be enough.
But if it's to weak than it will have no use for me, I wonder tough can the spirit still become stronger.'
His eyes narrowed as he saw how the dragon spirit seemed completely obedient. He also felt something familiar coming from it.
Alex's mind became busy thinking about this. He started considering how it could be achieved. Most of the materials would probably only be available in this world since, in his, it would take many experiments to make sure it worked or not.
Meanwhile, the man with the spear knocked his opponent down, with the tip pressing into the man's flesh. Blood dripped down as the cultivator quickly gave up. Dying for the competition is just not worth it.
He had won the quarter-final, with the last one being a semifinal fight against Zhu Zheng. If he won this, he would fight Alex.
But no one thought he would win. Many thought he would just give up like the others. After
Zhu Zheng's humiliating defeat, they knew the next one wouldn't have a good time fighting him.
Even surviving intact would be a question. But this man had different thoughts; his confidence grew after defeating all his enemies, and he had no other choice.
One might think he was threatened by the princess he represented, but unfortunately, that wasn't the case; he was seduced and betrayed.
In another area, the Zephyr young master, who had some fun with Morgana before, was now talking with another woman. But this one didn't look any special; she wore maid clothing.
If Alex were here, he would quickly recognize her as one of Morgana's maids. She was there when he met her directly.
This time, the man had a different gaze than when he was with Morgana; it was filled with more emotion.
"Are you sure he will be able to win?"
"I gave him the artifact you gave me, and he even strengthened it. Will that be not enough?"
The maid asked back with fear in her gaze. She didn't know much and only followed his orders, hoping to get a better life.
"It should be, but I don't think it's enough to defeat him. We should just escape."
The woman put her hand over her stomach, then replied, "But you said if we escaped like this, we would be hunted. That is why you made all this plan."
"You think I want this? Honestly, I don't even know what the real mission really is. But so far, the elder has never been wrong."
"If he has never been wrong, then why are you so anxious?"
"The original mission was to absorb this clan, but he wants to use it to clean the Zephyr clan of anyone who resists him. There should be no problem, but looking at that man, Alex, I don't want to take a risk."
The woman looked down this time, gazing intently at her own stomach, "In that case, Ewan, maybe we just should…"
"NO! I have been looking to get a descendant for ages. Who knows how long it will take to look for another with your body constitution."
What Ewan meant was the constitution of virility. He was fooling around with the maid once when waiting for Morgana, and to his surprise, he found out that she was pregnant.
They didn't have feelings for each other, but for Ewan, the baby was important. He had a dragon bloodline that raised his sex drive but, at the same time, lowered his fertility. His case was even worse as he had wounded two of his balls in a fight.
He was hopeless and often mocked as he didn't have any descendants despite his long age. He had searched for long to find a cure for this, but there was no solution, except one.
Sometimes, a woman was born with a special body constitution of virility, allowing them to have guaranteed pregnancy no matter how long the chance was.
This made Ewan fly to the moon, then begin taking care of the maid secretly. He raised her cultivation to the nascent soul stage with many elixirs to make sure the baby was born healthy.
"We can just make another one then," the woman replied.
But Ewan didn't agree to this; he didn't want to take any risk. "No, listen to me, we will just escape. Either you go voluntarily, or I will force you to go with me."
"But what about this?" the woman asked back.
