The Empyreal Gem Master

Chapter 76: Gem Master Alexander! II

In the middle of dead trees.

In this region between the City of Anan and an Ascendant Stronghold a few hundred miles away, a woman adorned in a green robe was bowing towards another woman who looked and dressed very similar to her, but she stood beside a young man in a stern expression!

It was Beast Lord Anastasia bowing down apologetically towards Alexander and a furious Vishpala.

"Please forgive me for my words, Ascendant Master. My mouth has gotten me in trouble before, but I've never misunderstood something like this."

She was apologizing for all the words she uttered as when her head rose, one could see that she truly looked too similar to Vishpala after becoming bound to Alexander as she also had strands of green gold hair!

Her eyes held a watery layer of grievances as Vishpala nodded towards her with a harrumph.

Alexander was studying the quantification of Vigor and Energeia of this being as he compared them to Vishpala, and when he didn't reply to her apology.

"Ascendant Master, did you hear me? I was apologizing because I misunderstood you not being impotent, and that you had mounted Sis Vishpala already. But now that I know you aren't even able to, I won't mention your condition ever again."

...!

Anastasia spoke as if she was stating the most obvious thing.

Because, why would this new Ascendant Master not mount someone like Vishpala when he had her bound and fully under his control with the possible gains he could make from doing it?

The only answer within Anastasia's head was that their new Master had to be impotent!

At her words, Vishpala turned ashen as she gazed toward Alexander with hesitation, scared that he might be enraged enough to command her to kill Anastasia for her words!

Yet...

Alexander only looked towards Anastasia with a calm gaze as he didn't even refute her, only replying with a steady gaze.

"You talk a lot."

"Yes, Ascendant Master. My mother always praised me for my mouth amongst all other Peacocks." Anastasia clenched her fists with pride as she said this, and Alexander played with the Thoughtweaver Gem in his hands as he asked her once more.

"..."

Anastasia shared a technique that allowed two entities to undergo a resonance of their Gem Sockets- with this technique increasing their levels of Ascendancy as it was most effective with entities who held more and more Sockets.

For the best effectiveness, intimacy was required between a man and a woman as this...was not the type of information Alexander was looking for right now.

He sighed while massaging his temples as unless he was very direct, it seemed like he wouldn't be getting much critical information from this woman as he made a simple command.

'Show me the memory of what happened the moment the deaths of the Beast Commanders were discovered.'

...!

'Ah, yes, Master! Here they are...'

Information of a memory began to play.

A memory that showed an enraged Elven Beast Lord and various other Beast Lords, as well as...A Human Lord!

The Lord of the Skypeak Ascendant Stronghold of Galanis!

He was standing amidst the Beast Lord as he even spoke about how he gave away information regarding the Ascendant Strongholds that the Beasts would then target.

Alexander's gaze became cold at this as his gaze then locked onto the Variant Beast Lord Commander.

A powerful entity with Variant Gem Sockets who commanded dozens of Beast Lords of different Beast Races!

What he spoke of was frightening as his words relayed the entrance of Tier 8 Beast Kings and Tier 9 Gem Emperors soon!

"..."

His eyes became increasingly somber at the information he obtained as gradually, he decided what should be sent back towards this Variant Beast Lord.

And after this message...it seemed like he had to make his way to the Ascendant Stronghold that Vishpala and her armies were originally going to attack!
