âThis is a human!â
She looked at Alex in surprise and her emotions became slightly stirred- Pointing at Alex, she asked,
âYou⦠Youâre a human?!â
âWhat?â
âA human? Really?â
âWe havenât had any humans here for a long time!â
The shocked onlookers gathered around him, and all started talking once.
At that moment, Alex suddenly said to Shado, âShado, do you wish to save your grandma?â
Shado was taken aback. âYou⦠You can save my grandma? Grandmaâs curse has begun to manifest,
and she will be completely petrified in about ten minutes. This is the eternal curse of our tribe. Nobody
can dispel it.â
Alex smiled. âI think I can give it a try.â
He was not boasting.
Rather, he just sensed that the source of the curse manifestation lay in the evil Chi. It was because the
condensed evil Chi in the body was so dense that it had reached its absolute concentration. Once it
reached the Naga tribeâs body limit, one would be unable to suppress the attack.
When the attack began, it would cause petrification through evil Chi. In this case, what triggered the
attack was some sort of ancient rune.
What Alex hoped most eagerly now was to help the Naga tribe drain the evil Chi from their bodies so it
could help him increase divine power. Presently, Shadoâs grandmother was definitely the best
candidate.
âYou⦠You can dispel our Naga tribeâs curse?â
The one who spoke was the villageâs high priestess, a female Naga with red wavy hair. She did not
look old at all and had a considerably outstanding appearance among humans.
âThis is probably the talent of the Naga race,â thought Alex.
Facing the high priestessâ urgent inquiry, Alex did not say everything. âI still donât know yet, but I can
give it a try.â
Shado was instantly excited. She grabbed Alexâs arm and said to her grandmother, âGrandma, itâs real.
Heâs a doctor. Heâs the one who helped me cure the curse in my body. Look, my body feels light now
and thereâs warmth in my hands.â
Soon, her grandmother held Shadoâs hand.
The next second, she screamed in astonishment, âThereâs really a warmth! What Shado said is true!
Thereâs really warmth! C-can you really help us dispel the curse?â
At the side, the high priestess, the undertakers, and the village elders who came to visit the
grandmother all rushed over and touched Shadoâs body and palms with their hands one by one.
As a resultâ¦
Everyone shouted loudly while jumping around in excitement. The next second, amid Alexâs silence
astonishment, the Naga tribe members with lofty status in the village kneeled before him. Under the
high priestessâ lead, they all shouted, âAll hail Lord Saint!â
The words instantly stunned Alexâ¦
âWhat Lord Saint? Iâm not your Lord Saint!â
Shado, also full of surprise, asked, âHigh Priestess, whatâs going on? How did he become Lord Saint?â
The high priestess immediately said to Shado, âShado, donât be rude in front of Lord Saint!â
Shado looked toward her grandmother. It turned out that her grandmother said the same thing as well.
âThe great ancient astrologist of the Naga tribe once told of our tribeâs fortune at the expense of his
life,â said the high priestess. âHe finally left a prophecy, the one that dispels the curse of our Naga tribe
would be our tribeâs Lord Saint.â
Alex was speechless.
After taking a look at Shadoâs grandmother, Alex said, âMaybe I can still save her now, but after a while,
even God wonât be able to save her. So, if you people want me to save her, all of you, please wait
outside.â
