章節 80: I do not want any more secrets

The meeting lasted for a couple of hours before they finished but what they were talking about was of less significance. Alexander spoke of a few miscellaneous, as well as the size of the property that Alexander wanted, and how they would expose it to Anna since the head of his family was Anna and if they want to move house would have to be approved by her.

Alexander decided to invent an imaginary master, it was the safest and most credible plan. It would also explain the money that Audrey has in her ring, something that Anna didn't know for obviously nor did Frey know where it came from.

So they planned to tell Anna that a year ago an old man arrived in his spectral form and became interested in being Alexander's master. The Elder turned out to be an alchemist and gave Alexander some books and some advice, money and a few spatial rings. He also created a medicinal garden for Alexander to practice alchemy before leaving.

They knew that this plan was not perfect and would have loop-holes but sometimes something did not have to be perfect to work. It just has to be barely credible and functional, so it would be more credible than a perfect story, if the story was too perfect there were people who would say "Nothing is perfect in this world" and would start researching.

A few days ago the elder met Audrey and gave her a few rings with money for his disciple and left that medicinal garden so that there would be no shortage of medicinal herbs for the practice. Anna did not know the value of the spatial rings, in fact perhaps she did not even know of their existence, so she did not doubt the story.

But then Helena said, "That doesn't sound credible, unlikely something so unreal would happen."

Alexander ignored her and asked everyone present: "What would you think if I told you that Helena is a divine beast that descended into the world of mortals?"

"Hahaha, prince, how is it possible for something as awe-inspiring as a divine beast to appear on this land?"

"Hahaha, Young Master as someone as adorable as Helena can be a divine beast!"

Naturally, Alexander received his answer, both did not believe anything and took it as a joke. Looking at with the tips of his eyes, Alexander glace at Helena, and she crossed her arms and looked away to avoid his sight while having an expression saying "Hmph".

She knew what Alexander was trying to say to her was something like "You talk about it being something unrealistic, but how unrealistic it seems to you that a divine beast something that was thought to be extinct appears out of nowhere and accepts to be a maid, If you are going to talk to me about unrealistic first go reflect yourself in the mirror!"

So nobody else opposed this story, it is true that it had holes and it was unreal but they have something that would make it credible and that was the space rings and the medicinal garden!

So the first thing Alexander did was to ask Audrey for the cauldron that she bought yesterday and made a complete modified, the first thing he modifies was purified the iron to improve the structure and resistance of the cauldron. When inspecting the quality of the cauldron Alexander could not help sighing, the works of this kingdom are too shoddy, even the works of apprentices were better than these. But what he had in hand he could only work on the basis.

He then placed a couple of Arrays to further improve his durability, in addition to better distributing and regulating the heat. Only when Alexander finally nodded with satisfaction, this cauldron was hardly passable to make pills.

In the meantime. Audrey and Frey were shocked, the only one who was indifferent was Helena. They couldn't believe what they have seen, previously it was just an ordinary cauldron, made by a craftsman without a name but now it was unrecognizable. They let out a sigh of amazement. Alexander asked Audrey to put it in the ring so she would present it to his mother and tell her that it is a gift from his master to refine pills.

Then Audrey nodded and went to report to Anna, meanwhile, Alexander said goodbye to Frey and went to his room to train while Helena followed him behind like a shadow.

Alexander spent half an hour exercising before he began to train while Helena was loitering on his bed, Alexander while he was training his Six Animal Forms technique he suddenly asked: "Aren't you a servant?"

Helena replied in his bed: "You haven't given me an order, I'm supposed to stand like a statue?"

"Haha, maybe not wait like a statue but what if you train?"

"I don't need it. I'm a divine beast, my body is perfect"

At that moment, Alexander shook his head and said, "Your body may be perfect but it's neglected."

"What does it matter?"

"In cultivation, the importance of the body is underestimated, many cultivators treated it as a container for their souls but the truth is that they are wrong. The body is the beginning of everything, and the qi is the most powerful force, it is true that you can cultivate the soul but this has limited use in battle, If you lose your soul dies but if you lose your carnal body, with it you also lose your cultivation".

"Your body may be perfect but it's very rigid, this will limit your fighting strength and the arts you can learn."

"Look at this."

So Helena looked up and saw Alexander twisting his whole body in an unnatural way as if he was a contortionist, it was something she was sure she could not do. So with the look, he said: "Now you believe me, even if you have a body of a divine beast if we compare it with mine, it will fall behind in the future, that gap will increase more, you know this can also make Audrey even more than this".

This boy was only in Body refining level 5 but he could already do something like that. How could he do that?

Alexander did not see Helena's expression, as he knew that almost all cultivators the higher their cultivation the lesser the importance they would place on the carnal body. This was because they thought that qi was far superior to physical. Only a small number of cultivators practiced and refined their physical body, as this demands many resources and time in which they could cultivate.

But just as Helena was about to speak the door of the room opened and Anna entered the room followed by Audrey.

Anna saw Alexander sweating and with her hands on her waist she said, "Why didn't you tell me anything about your master?"

On hearing that, Alexander let out a sigh, apparently, his mother has believed in the existence of that teacher. Naturally for someone who has lived in a desolate Area to see a spatial ring must be enough for them to believe whatever it is.

Alexander acting childishly told his mother: "I thought you wouldn't believe me if it weren't for the fact that the master appeared in person with Audrey I wouldn't have said anything".

When listening to him, Anna could not help but sigh, So she approached her son, lifted him in her arms and could not help kissing her son, "Silly boy, Don't worry that your mother is here, I don't want you to keep me any more secrets, you promise?"

Alexander knew that he could never keep that promise since his very existence was a secret, but still nodded and said: "Yes, mother".

Seeing her son's obedient response, Anna couldn't help but smile and decided to spend the whole day with her son.
