The Supreme Ruler of Spirits

004. Alice the guardian of the legendary black lightning spirit inheritance.

…

"Father, how can I become a powerful magician like you?" A 10-year-old boy asked the white-haired man whose face was faintly visible.

The boy was none other than little Julius, right now he was dreaming, more precisely memories of his father in the past appeared in his dream.

"There is no other way, you just have to train hard to death, you have to make every inch of your body feel pain, only in that way can you grow into a great magician."

The middle-aged man replied in a gentle and deep boy voice.

Hearing that, little Julius' eyes immediately lit up, but a moment later he looked dim and sad, he lowered his head withered.

"Aren't talent and luck also very important, I was born with a white-colored spirit which is the lowest level, how can it be possible to become a powerful magician just by training hard?!” Julius grumbled to himself.

He began to think, his father's answer was just to cheer him up.

You're right, talent and luck can increase one's chances of growing strong faster, but you are mistaken in some ways, the white spirit is very different from what you think, when you grow up you will understand.”

"You mean?" Julius was a little bothered by his father's answer, he felt that he was not mistaken, white colored spirits were the lowest kind of spirits. Everyone knows that.

“Hmm, are you really curious?

All right, daddy will give you a secret! … Spirit colors represent two things, namely talent and luck, the two are inseparable, but the white spirit is different. The spirit can ignore either one.

A person with a white-colored spirit would sometimes have talent on par with a rare-colored spirit possessor, but their luck was very low.

And conversely, a person with a white spirit sometimes has low talent but has great luck that can change his life.

Father had met several knights and adventurers who possessed white spirits. And most of them have obtained rare fortune.

You also have it, so I'm very sure, one day you will also get it.”

Listening to his father's explanation, happiness and enthusiasm immediately flowed through little Julius' body.

“Whoosh!”

At that moment, the scenery before Julius suddenly changed, as if he had been pulled into a different dimension, Dark clouds, and black lightning swirled and flashed around Julius as if he was in the center of a vortex of clouds and lightning.

At the end of the vortex was a ball of black lightning that seemed to control the area and had a will of its own.

"You have a rare pure blood, don't let me down!"

Those short words sounded like thunder in the sky, and Julius' ears immediately buzzed. Bringing him back to his real consciousness.

...

Julius was very surprised and immediately opened his eyes, his consciousness had returned to reality, and he sat up with a shocked and confused expression.

But everything was soon replaced by a heavy feeling in his head, he pressed his head down, and tried to calm himself down.

"You're awake. Master!” The polite voice of a red-haired girl greeted Julius.

The figure of a beautiful girl sitting casually next to him, staring closely at Julius, their distance was so close that Julius was shocked and fell off his bed.

“Aren't you…?” Julius's eyes widened, he had seen the girl when he was dying.

“Aren't you the goddess? Am I dead?” Julius continued with a slightly trembling voice.

"Goddess? Hahahaha…Master! You are exaggerating, introduce my name is Alice Roses, I am one of the guardians of the legendary spirit inheritance, and I controlled the two weak wolves earlier.” The red-haired girl introduced herself politely and sincerely.

"What ...?" Julius choked, never thinking the girl in front of him was the one who almost killed him before, moreover her words were so strange.

“Then now, how could he be so polite? and why did he call him master? Where is he now …?" A series of questions popped up in Julius' head, and most importantly Julius wouldn't believe Alice so easily.

Julius thought hard, before finally opening his mouth again.

“What do you mean by legendary spirit inheritance? And what does that have to do with me? I don't think an assassin would be so polite to her target." Julius asked carefully.

Alice smiled lightly without any hint of anger and started to explain, “A legendary spirit is one of the powers that originate from ancient times, everything is part of the power of the gods and demons, and with time, all the power has a will of its own.

You are a creature chosen by the legendary black lightning spirit inheritance that comes from the power of the thunder god, and having automatically become the inheritor of that spirit, you have the chance to reach the pinnacle of power that could rule the earth and heavens, then…”

"Wait! Stop there?”

Hearing all those explanations, Julius's head was spinning full of confusion and told Alice to stop her explanation.

"You seem like a good storyteller, but you should know one thing, I don't believe in gods and devils. After all, there's no way such a big power would choose me, you must have the wrong person!”

When Julius wanted to clear up the misunderstanding, Alice immediately placed her snow-white index finger on Julius's lips.

Julius's cheeks instantly reddened, and his body seemed to freeze, that slight touch was as soft as silk, yet the chilling aura she released penetrated to the very bone.

Alice smiled lightly, “Sir it seems you have always been lonely, and from now on I will accompany you, but before that, you should take yours first and get out of this place immediately.” Said Alice politely.

Julius didn't understand Alice's words, but Alice was right in some ways, she was always lonely.

"My stuff?"

Julius was slightly confused, but Alice immediately pulled his hand.

Currently, the two of them were in the basement, right under the center tower of the tomb, the two of them came out of the room and Alice took Julius to another room which was only 10 meters away.

Julius still didn't understand anything and just let Alice drag him along. He could feel the softness of Alice's palm, and the fragrance of the roses and saw Alice's perfect body from behind.

Any man who was in Julius's position right now would not be able to contain himself, Julius also felt the same way, however, he immediately turned his head in another direction, afraid that his mind would fantasize wildly.

In the 10-meter-long passageway, Julius saw many ancient carvings, but unfortunately, he couldn't understand any of the characters and symbols there.

A moment later, the two arrived in front of the room that was their destination, when they got there, Julius couldn't help but gape.

The room was filled with weapons, and most amazingly they were of the best quality he had ever seen in the city of Redflor.

“This is an inheritance weapon, basically all you can have, but because the black lightning inheritance just formed in your body, you might only be able to take one before this place is destroyed.” Alice made a suggestion.

"Hmm, what a shame!" Julius felt sad, but on the other hand, he felt lucky, who would give him quality weapons for free.

"Please choose the weapon you like!" Alice greeted Julius politely.

“Mmm!” Julius just nodded lightly, then looked towards the wall where all the weapons were stuck.

Swords, spears, axes, daggers, chains, spiked clubs, hammers, whips. All of those weapons made Julius salivate, but his gaze soon locked onto the shiny black bow.

"I'll take the crossbow!" Julius immediately chose without hesitation, currently, his best ability is archery, while his other skills are yet to be honed.

"Good choice, it's a spirit lock arrow, if you can bring out the best in it, almost no creature can avoid it."

Alice shares her bit of knowledge about the spirit lock bow chosen by Julius.
