Chapter 183: CHAPTER 183 – Something Cool.
Chapter 183: CHAPTER 183 – Something Cool.
"It's already been 20 mins…."
Noctura muttered as she looked at the wet sand below her paws.
"We will wait for a bit more, and if they still didn't come up, then well, we can always just get in there and kill them all…"
Alex spoke as he casually waved his hand, creating chairs again.
"For you, my ladies."
Alex spoke as he bowed his head in a gentlemanly manner.
"I feel like a baggage right now…."
Alice sighed as she sat on the chair made by Alex while Ann just nodded with a sigh.
All they did inside the gate was sit on the chair that Alex made for them.
"What do you mean you feel like baggage, there's no way you guys are baggage!"
Alex spoke with a 'No way!' type of face.
"Yeah? Then what are we doing here? What is our role in this gate?"
Alice asked with her brows raised.
Yeah, she and Ann weren't too into fighting.
But there was this fact that all they did was cause trouble for Alex.
Even with them sitting in their places, they caused the whole scenario of Alex getting angry and torturing the Aquathrens.
'You are useless in a fight but you will attract trouble', that's what is meant to be baggage.
Right now, Alice and Ann's role somewhat matched with baggage.
"…. emotional support.
Yes, you guys are my and Noctura's emotional support!"
Alex spoke in a low voice before he exclaimed as if he had found the right word.
Alice and Ann gave him a 'really now?' look, so Alex defended himself.
"For real guys, you are our emotional support, right, pup?"
Alex spoke as he nodded many times before he turned to Noctura.
"Huh?"
Noctura, who wasn't even listening to the conversation carefully was left speechless for a second.
'Just say yes, pup.'
Then she heard her master's voice in her head and she nodded her head.
"Yes!"
She spoke as she kept nodding her head.
"Really?" Ann looked at Noctura and asked with a harmless smile.
"Yes," Noctura replied with a yes again.
She didn't care about what it was, she would say yes if her master told her to do it no matter what, but then Ann asked with the same smile.
"Yes for what, pup?"
"Eh? Uh…"
Noctura didn't have an answer, she turned to look at Alex for an answer or help, but Alice and Ann just sighed.
"It's all right, we are not sad or anything, we are just bored…"
Ann replied as she waved her hand, but then she noticed that Alex was not responding to them so she turned to him only to find him looking toward the sea with a smile.
"Looks like they came huh…"
Ann muttered but everyone in the surroundings heard it loud and clear.
Noctura excitedly started looking in the same direction as Alex when she heard Ann's words while Alice also looked ahead, but not as excited as Noctura.
"Yes, and he brought an army with him," Alex spoke with a smile.
"Army?" Alice asked with curiosity.
"Around 2000 Aquathrens, with more than 100 S-ranked ones," Alex replied to Alice causing the eyes of Ann, Alice, and Noctura to widen with surprise.
But soon, Noctura started to wag her tail with happiness.
'More enemies mean more fighting….'
Alex chuckled as he looked at it and patted her head.
'Hehehe…'
Noctura giggled inwardly as she rubbed her head against Alex's palm that was on her head.
Alice and Ann also smiled looking at the interaction between the pairs.
"More enemies mean more points…."
Ann muttered with a smile.
"And not like this is the first time he is facing an army…." Continue your journey with m.vl-em,py-r
Alice added to Ann's words.
Ann nodded her head and relaxed in her seat, and so did Alice.
Alex looked back at them and smiled.
'Emotional support!'
He nodded as he lip-synced those words.
*Giggle*
This caused them to giggle as they shook their heads.
Alex raised his brows before he looked at them and mouthed again.
'I love you.'
He looked at both of them simultaneously as he spoke that.
Alice and Ann were stunned by the random confession, but then their faces turned rosy.
They smiled happily as they mouthed back to him.
'I love you, too….'
All of their boredom evaporated like a water droplet dropped on a frying pan.
They just smiled as they realized what their roles actually were.
'We are his loves….'
They didn't need to fight, just needed to be there for him when he returned from the fight.
They just need to be there, welcoming him back with warm smiles on their faces and arms open for him to rest.
They smiled as they thought of these things.
The silly smile on their faces just wouldn't go away, but that was good, at least for Alex.
'That's better…'
Alex muttered inwardly as he saw the smiles on their faces, this was what he wanted from them.
'Just keep smiling like that.'
Alex smiled at them before he turned back toward the sea where he could see some movements in the sea surface, like someone was about to come out.
What he failed to notice was a strange glint in both of their eyes as they looked at him.
"Well, should I give them a welcome gift?
Don't want them to get arrogant thinking that they have the numbers, after all."
Alex muttered as he looked at the heads that were just about to pop out of the sea surface.
"Yes!"
Noctura answered Alex's question with a smile.
"Since my cute little pup wants that, then I will do just that…"
Alex spoke as he ruffled Noctura's fur, he then lifted his other hand up in the air.
"You want to see something cool, pup?"
Alex asked with a smile, and Noctura replied without a second of pause.
"Yes!"
"Good," Alex nodded his head as a metal spike emerged from the ground below them.
Then he twisted his wrist causing the tip of the spikes to break and float above Alex's head.
"You see these spikes?"
Alex asked Noctura who was looking at Alex's every move with utmost focus.
"Yes."
She nodded her head.
"Around 23."
Noctura's answer was precise, causing Alex to raise his brow, but then he smiled mischievously.
"What is that, Noctura?" Alex pointed toward the sea with a frown.
Noctura hurriedly looked at what Alex was pointing at, but she couldn't find anything there so she looked back at Alex but her eyes widened.
"What's wrong, pup?"
Alex asked with a smile before he added.
"Numbers don't match?"
Instead of the earlier 23 spikes, right now, there are more than 100 such spikes.
"You cheated!"
Noctura puffed her cheeks as she spoke with a huff.
"Hahaha, I just wanted to tease you a little, blame your cuteness for that."
Alex just laughed it off, but Noctura's puffed cheeks deflated as she smiled sweetly when she heard Alex's last words.
'Master said that I'm cute, hehehe…'
She giggled inwardly, but then she heard Alex's voice.
"The cool part starts now, pup."
"Umu."
Noctura nodded her head and focused on the spikes in the air.
Alex's stats were limited to SS-rank, right now, so his movements could be clearly perceived by Noctura, and the same for the attacks.
So, when she saw Alex wave his hand, her eyes followed the spikes as they wooshed toward the sea, but then the spikes disappeared.
"Huh?"
Noctura widened her eyes, then she looked at Alex for an answer but before she could ask something….
*Pierce*
"Akkhh!!"
"AHH!!"
*Pierce*
"ARGHH!!"
*Pierce*
"NO-"
*Pierce*
