Chapter 235: Wrong person to talk about

The entire villagers were gathered before Alex and were looking at him with eyes filled with sadness.

This sadness stemmed from the fact that Alex and Olivia were already leaving.

"Folks, come on. Don't look at me like that"

"Although I am leaving, I will always remember this place. As it's the place that I met my future wife. So it's impossible for me to forget about this place. Besides, I am taking Nailah with me. That alone has indelibly branded this place in my memory." Alex said.

"Okay sir. We would leave Nailah in your care, please take care of her" A villager said pleadingly.

"Definitely. You all should just keep your mind at ease. I would surely take care of her like a younger sister. See, I never had a little sister when I was growing up. So, if I have someone who I can look at as a younger sister, then that person would be taken care of by me like my actual blood sister. And now that she's moving with us, she would grow up to become someone who can definitely protect all of you." Alex said.

The villagers nodded their heads happily.

Then one villager said with glistening eyes "The Godly Punisher and The Mistress of Punishment, please, you both should keep yourselves safe. We don't want our heart broken by sad news about your deaths."

Alex smiled.

"Don't worry about us, folks. We are not so foolish to think that we are very powerful. We would definitely keep ourselves safe from harm or destruction" He said.

Then he continued "If there's nothing else, we would love to take our leave"

"Alright. Take care of yourselves" One said.

Then the entire people in the village which comprised of the old, the middle-aged, teens and children, all began to wave at Alex and Olivia as they left with Nailah.

Not long, Alex, Olivia and Nailah came out of the village through the pathway that he created in the large forest which he used his false, saint-level Power of Wood to grow.

"Alex, we definitely can't trek to the city. It's very far in case you don't know. You should have an average-rank or good-rank, transportation-purpose treasure-artifact among the millions of spatial rings that you looted from Jared's organization." Olivia said.

"Hmm." Alex uttered.

She was right about what she said.

He didn't come from the city to this place, it was because he was being pursued by those acolytes of ancient powerhouses from Greatverses and Oververses, that the Silver-Violet Sword Banisher disappeared from this city to a city in another continent, just for the sake of evading them. And then when it reappeared in the city, since it didn't have an exact spatial coordinate as it was moving in the void, it actually appeared in the far outer boundary of the village that he fortunately met Olivia.

"Let me see" Alex said.

Then he started browsing through the items stored in the spatial rings one after the other.

He hadn't sorted out the objects or materials in the millions of spatial rings that he plundered from Jared's organization.

However, after a few hours of intense searching, he came across one. And after observing it well, he brought it out since he felt that it was good, and should be strong enough to move them to the city.

Immediately the transportation-purpose treasure-artifact shot out from his dad's spatial necklace, it turned into a large carriage that was driven by low-grade energy crystals.

But Alex viciously plucked out the low-grade energy crystals and replaced it with peerless-grade ones.

This was because the low-grade energy crystals wouldn't be able to last only an hour on the road, and Olivia after calculating how long it would take them to get back to a place in the city, calculated that their estimated time of arrival in the city should be about six hours, using the carriage whose maximum movement speed was known.

Alex then opened the door and said with a smile in his face "Could the mistress and the little girl before her both kindly step in?"

Olivia shook her head.

'What a playful guy'.

Then she grabbed Nailah who was smiling too by the hands and stepped into the carriage.

And so, that was how they began to move at a normal speed to the city.

To Alex who was hundreds of times faster than the carriage on foot, felt that it was incredibly slow. However, he relaxed himself and not let the speed of the moving treasure-carriage bother him.

With his closed, he resumed his comprehension.

Seeing what Alex did, Olivia too entered her world of comprehension.

Nailah noticed their actions and tried to do what they were doing, which was to comprehend.

Then she tried to further comprehend light which she had already understood it profundity to a level.

- Six hours later -

They got to the city.

Not that the carriage took them there by itself like it could read their minds, it was Olivia who inputted the regional coordinate of the place that it wanted it to go, into the area-locator in the treasure-carriage.

After the carriage got there, they all got down from it. Then Alex returned the carriage into dad's spatial necklace.

"First of all, before we do anything, who wants to eat?" Alex said with a smile.

Nailah quickly shot her hand up.

She had never tasted city food in all her life as she had always been at the village.

While Alex who asked this question simply had the intention to treat Nailah to the delightful, crispy and delicious food of the city.

Olivia understood this and gave a smile.

'He has already started treating her as his sister' She said inwardly.

Then they left for an inn that wealthy mortals would be able to easily afford.

They got a table and sat with calmness in their hearts. While Nailah who was totally excited about the meal that she would be served soon, couldn't stop imagining the taste of the food in her mouth and salivating after it.

Not long, she was served her meal and her delight exploded.

Without thinking about where she was, she dived in and began to eat, chewing and munching away with joy and gladness in her heart. 

Alex and Olivia smiled at her little girl hungry attitude.

Being a poor mortal... well, there was nothing they could say.

Without interrupting her, they let her enjoy her food.

"Who is that animal over there?" Someone seated on a table in the inn said to another person in front of him.

"Don't know. I wonder how such an animal found her way into this place. This stupid inn now allows all sort of people in, as long as they rake in their own damned cash." That person that was spoken to replied.

"Let's eat and leave here at once. I can't withstand the noisy eating of that animal over there." The man who first spoke said.

Then the other nodded.

All while they were saying this, Alex's hearing which was simply superhuman furrowed his brows in anger.

Then now looking in their direction, he waved his cyan-glowing hand at them, then the soft air in the room abruptly turned into a raging one that impacted them hard and tyrannically hurled them away from their seats towards a wall of the inn that was many feet away.

Nailah and Olivia were surprised by Alex's action.

"It's nothing to be bothered about" Alex said smilingly to the both of them.

Then now gazing at Nailah, he said softly "Keep on eating, Nailah"

Nailah nodded her head and continued to eat.

The people in the inn were heavily surprised. And when they realized that Alex was a cultivator, perhaps of the wind, their hearts shook in awe and fear. Then they quickly faced away from him to the people in front of them. Some cultivators were just not to be provoked, or one would not know how they ended.

The ones that were shoved away by the compressed, violent wind currents had already fainted from impacting the wall.

When Nailah finished eating, she said to Alex, "I am am done".

"Alright. Let's leave then" He said with a smile.

Then he paid the money for Nailah's meal and left the inn with Nailah and Olivia. And as they left, people couldn't stop looking at his back. He was exuding an heroic aura and at the same time, the aura of ruthlessness.

Alex turned back to face them with a smile, then all the people looking at him couldn't help but have their blood churn violently, and their hearts to almost jump out of their chests.
