The Moonlight Swordsman

Chapter 140 Satan?

Aizel's eyes fluttered open and he found himself in his own apartment in his world.

He'd spent some time with the kids, telling them stories and enjoying their company, before returning to his own world.

It was only midafternoon, he stretched his limbs and made his way to the hall to meet Lo... Alora.

When Aizel entered the hall, he was taken aback.

Not only was Alora immersed in a K-drama while eating pizza and drinking cola, but Dr. Shelly was also present, clad in her nightgown, and enjoying the K-drama with Alora.

Aizel suddenly remembered something as he sought the magical band that remained on his wrist. He thought to activate the armor with a sense of urgency, but the artifact remained unresponsive.

"Hmm, so it needs mana to work," he thought.

"Oh, you are back, Aizel!" Dr. Shelly ended his chain of thoughts.

"Hello, Dr…. Shelly, is your mom okay now?"

"Yes, she is now; that's why I was able to come back again, and thank you for asking."

"When did you come here, by the way?"

"Last night, when you were not answering your call or my messages, Then I met Alora when I tried to enter your apartment.

"She said you made a new friend and were spending the night at his house."

"Oh! Is that so? I totally forgot to bring my phone, hahaha… let's leave that for now," Aizel quickly shifted the topic.

"It's good that you are making new friends, Aizel." She said it with a smile.

"Yes," he replied.

"Well, now I should go back; my vacations are over now. From tomorrow back to work. Let's meet again, Aizel and Alora.

"And if you need anything, call me."

"Bring something nice to eat next time," Alora said.

"Sure,"

She went to the guest room to change her clothes before saying her goodbyes and leaving.

Aizel rushed over to the couch and settled down next to Alora, eager to show her something on his hand.

"What is this?" She asked.

"Can't you tell?"

"It's not reacting without mana; it can be anything."

"Magic artifact, it's a fucking awesome armor, which even had some blades fans that generate power like engines and helped me to spew blue fire breath. That attack really had some power. I bet even you won't be able to handle it."

Alora's little fingers reached out to examine it carefully, running her fingers over its complex features.

"Where did you get it?"

"You weren't seeing me or reading my mind this whole time? You don't know what happened in the last few days?" He asked.

"No, I was busy with my show."

He sighed.

Alora's gaze shifted from the artifact to Aizel, and in an instant, her mind absorbed all the events that had taken place up until that moment.

"You are really lucky. You are even improving at great speed. Keep this up and healing your core won't be far."

"Anything else?" Aizel asked.

"Nothing,"

"Nothing? So, you are not gonna ask me or advise me to stay away from some dangerous and powerful people that I recently met or tell me to be careful around them?"

Alora suddenly made a disgusted expression, which made Aizel surprised.

"I will replay this event again when your memories return. I really hate this personality of yours,"

"W... What did I do now?"

"Why are you always acting scared or having to pay attention to everything? You have the power of imagination. You still don't understand what it means."

Aizel was taken aback by Alora's abrupt outburst, but he quickly comprehended what she was trying to say.

"It's not like I want to act like that. What do you want me to do? I am still at Grade II only." He answered.

*tsk*

"This fucking condition of his," she thought.

"Just leave it for now. You have to judge the person you meet, or whom to trust and whom not, on your own. I have already said this.

"No matter how strong I am, I won't be able to help you in that world. I can't risk it."

"Are you hiding from someone?" Aizel asked.

"There is still more to that world you still don't know about. Even the ones who live in that world won't know. You should only think about healing your core for now.

"I know I have said before, try to make friends and live a life you haven't had here until now, but that doesn't mean you become fully immersed in that.

"Healing your core should always come before anything Aizel; you can have everything you want after that.

"Remember this well.

"Now rest for a while and go back to Xelgar. There is nothing in this world. Don't waste your time here."

"Okay," he said.

"And by the way, you are wanted by the police."

"WHAT!" WHY?"

"Did you already forget what you did that night?"

Aizel's mind was instantly overwhelmed with recollections of the night he took the law into his own hands and brutally killed the thug who was on his way to the police station.

"Your photo with the mask is going viral on the internet."

"Some are even calling you Satan, who came from hell to punish people for their crimes and take their souls away."

"What the bullshit is this?" He commented after seeing his pictures and comments all over the internet on his phone.

"What is this Satan and demons?" Alora asked.

"You don't know? Are there no demons or succubus in Xelgar?"

"No," she replied.

"How should I explain, hmm... you can consider them opposites of Gods. They live in hell, which is opposite to heaven.

"They eat or prey on humans and Gods and blah blah blah... you can search on the internet for more information."

Aizel's gaze shifted towards Alora who was fixedly staring at him with hawk-like intensity.

"What, why are you staring?"

"How do you know the word, God?"

"What do you mean? Everyone in this world knows about God; what is so strange about it?"

Alora snatched the phone from Aizel's hand and started frantically searching for more information on the Gods.
