After Rocky answered her, Alyssa immediately asked more questions. "Then what's the relationship between you and that member of the spiritual race? Why was one of them willing to expend their spiritual soul to help you? The spiritual soul is their source of power. Once the spiritual soul is damaged or consumed, their strength will gradually weaken, so the spiritual soul is very important."
"Really? I didn't know that," Rocky answered honestly, shaking his head. He had had no idea what the spiritual soul was until now. After hearing Alyssa's explanation, he was sure that the spiritual soul in him was from Cherry.
"It's okay if you don't want to tell me. Anyway, I have one last question for you. Do you have the treasure map with you?" Alyssa asked directly, instead of asking him further questions about the spiritual soul.
"Why are you so interested in the treasure map?" asked Rocky tentatively.
"There is a secret on the treasure map that the spiritual race doesn't want the rest of the world to know, but I have no idea what it's about. Besides, there's something in the place mentioned on the treasure map that I can use to deal with the Holy Dragon Empire," Alyssa stated bluntly.
"Are you still planning to take on the Holy Dragon Empire?" Rocky's eyes widened in surprise.
"Yes. Even if I don't do anything, the Holy Dragon Empire will soon deal with the Timber Deity Empire. Therefore, I have to make the first move and find a way to suppress the Holy Dragon Empire," Alyssa said without hesitation. The reason why she had provoked the war before was because the emperor of the Timber Deity Empire was about to abdicate, and the Holy Dragon Empire would certainly take this opportunity to do something harmful to the Timber Deity Empire. Moreover, her brother was most likely to claim the throne, so she had to make sure that his empire was stable.
"Then it seems that we're going to be enemies after all." The two of them had started out as enemies, but had just ended up declaring a truce for the sake of convenience. So, Rocky wasn't surprised that Alyssa still had hostility towards the Holy Dragon Empire.
"I guess," Alyssa responded, feeling a little sad that things had to end this way.
"I have one last question for you, too. If I become the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, and your brother becomes the emperor of the Timber Deity Empire, will there be any chance for the two countries to make peace?" Rocky stared intently at Alyssa as he waited for her answer.
"Well..." Alyssa hesitated for a moment.
"Is it hard to answer my question?" Rocky's eyes narrowed.
"Can I give you an answer later?" Alyssa said after thinking for a while. She was really unable to answer it at the moment.
Feeling that it was a reasonable request, Rocky nodded casually.
"All right. Let's get down to business," Alyssa said seriously, changing the topic.
"What else is there?" Rocky was puzzled.
"You have to help me remove the curse," Alyssa replied in a tone that indicated that it should have been obvious to him.
