Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 180: CHAPTER 180 – Alex is a Coward?

[She was a mid-boss ranked monster.]

'I know that.'

Alex replied to Sophia as he walked toward the dead body of Lupina.

[Your power was not suppressed-]

'I know that,' Alex spoke again.

[The quest says that you have to kill mid-boss with-]

'With my power suppressed to SS-rank, I know that as well.'

Alex nodded his head inwardly.

[I was just making sure since you didn't look like you were going to stop.]

'Why do you think I left one mid-boss, and a boss for the end?'

Alex asked with a smile and then he continued.

'I know what the quest is and I am planning on doing it, so don't worry and just watch the show.'

Alex smiled, and then he started absorbing the demonic energy inside Lupina's body.

'Ahh….'

Alex closed his eyes as he enjoyed the sensation of his body being filled with demonic energy.

'This feels good no matter how many times I do it….'

Alex sighed with a smile.

[The demonic energy in your body is currently double the maximum mana you have in your body.]

'I see,' Alex nodded inwardly but then he sighed in disappointment.

'Too bad I can't keep regenerating infinitely….'

[Not now, but we don't know about the future….]

Sophia spoke mysteriously, causing Alex's eyes to shine with realization.

Sophia could not tell him about things and he had to discover them on his own, but she could drop clues…. (In some cases, at least)

'Yesh, who knows about the future…'

Alex spoke as he smiled knowingly before he turned toward the pair of eyes that had been staring a hole in him for a while now.

"Geez, I was coming to you next, you know?

What's with the hard look, I won't be unfair to you guys, I will give you the same treatment as others…."

Alex shook his head as he moved toward Makrum.

"What is it, big guy?"

Alex looked down on Makrum as he asked.

Yes, he was looking down at the 2-meter-tall Makrum.

It was not because Alex suddenly grew in height, Alex simply made Makrum get on his knees.

But this just made Makrum angrier as his eyes turned red with anger.

"Whoa, whoa, calm down, I don't want you dying from anger now."

Alex spoke as he brought his palm in front of Macrum's face.

"Here, take this, it will help you cool down."

*Splash*

Alex spoke as his stream of water shot out of his palm, straight on Makrum's face.

"I just don't like looking up at people, you see, so I had to make your height shorter."

Alex shrugged casually as he justified his actions.

"Here, more water as compensation for that," Alex added as he sprayed more water over Makrum's face.

"Aren't I a good guy?" Alex asked with a harmless smile as he stood in front of Makrum with his hand folded in front of him.

Makrum was someone who lived in water, so for him being sprayed by some water was like having wind blowing at his face.

But, right now, he felt humiliated like never before.

He glared at Alex and if glares could kill, Alex would've died 100 times by now.

Alex looked at Makrum for a second before he spoke with a chuckle.

"You know, your eyes make it hard for me to tell where you are looking, I can't even tell if you are actually glaring at me or someone else."

Makrum's eyes were more to the side than humans, just like any other, so even when he looked at Alex, his eyes would still remain on the side, which looked funny to Alex.

Makrum gritted his teeth but he couldn't say anything, he was still locked since Alex had not removed the pressure lock he placed over Makrum.

Alex then extended his palm toward Makrum's forehead as he spoke.

"Well, it doesn't matter, you are just a fish that's about to get cooked."

But then Alex paused.

"What's this?" Alex bent forward as he looked at Makrum's eyes closely.

"Why are you not begging?

It seems like you are not even afraid of what is about to happen.

You are not afraid of death?"

There was not a trace of pleading or fear in Makrum's eyes.

Maybe it was because he had yet to feel the pain. But it fitted well with Alex's plan, so he decided to make use of it.

*Hmph*

Makrum scoffed at Alex, but he didn't say anything, or like he couldn't say anything.

"Oh, my bad, it seems like I forgot to remove the lock over you," Alex smiled as he waved his hand and Makrum was finally able to speak.

"Why would I be afraid of a coward like you?"

The first thing Makrum did was scoff at Alex again.

"Oh? This is new…."

Alex raised his brow as he stood up straight and folded his arms in front of his chest.

"Why am I a coward now?"

Alex added.

Makrum looked at Alex speechlessly before he started laughing.

"Hahahahahahahaha!"

Alex looked at Macrum with a smile before he started laughing as well.

"Hahahahahahaha!"

But his laughter was louder and he kept laughing.

This made Makrum stop laughing.

He stared at Alex.

'Is he a psycho?'

He had seen that type of people before, and he felt like Alex was one of them.

Alex also stopped laughing after a while.

He wiped off the imaginary tears that came out of his eyes and spoke with a smile.

"I laughed since you laughed, I thought that I must've said something funny."

Alex paused for a second before he placed his hand on Makrum's shoulder and clutched it lightly.

*Crack*

But that lightly was not so light for Macrum.

"Argh"

Macrum groaned as he felt his bones crack just by Alex's grip.

'Bastard!'

He cursed inwardly as he glared at Alex.

"Now tell me: What was so funny about my question?"

Alex spoke and when Makrum looked at Alex, all he saw was Alex staring at him with an emotionless face.

But Makrum was not scared even now.

Stay tuned with m,v le,mpyr

The person who lost the fear of death is hard to scare, after all, and Makrum knew that his death was inevitable, so there was no use begging or fearing death.

'The worst he could do is kill me.'

That's what Makrum thought, but if Alex heard those words, then this time he would've laughed for real.

"You use your superior power to suppress us, then you kill us without even giving us a chance to fight back, and you still want to know how you are a coward?"

Makrum spoke while shaking his head.

"If we were to go by what you're saying then weren't you guys' cowards as well?"

Alex tilted his head in confusion.

"What do you mean?"

Makrum asked with a frown.
