Chapter 221: A Sticky Problem (1/2)
Our bored gamer was of course successful in hiding. But only for a time.
When lunch came, everyone was gathered downstairs and was in their best behavior especially with a visitor in the house.
”There they go at it again.” Clark could only mutter to himself while he was beset by everyone's attention. Not only his mom and Elizabeth but also that of the female servants of the mansion.
Our good gamer was the apple on everyone's eyes. He had never experienced being so pampered like he did at this very moment of his life. Usually this was his big brother's John throne.
”Let's go swimming after we eat, Clark!” Elizabeth suggested which resulted in an awkward silence around the table. Our bored gamer was after all not the boyfriend of this sexy vixen.
This put our avid protagonist in a tight spot and in the end, he could only parry the invitation to another direction.
”I'm not feeling well, Elizabeth. But I'm sure John would be happy to accompany you in the pool.”
Clark offered an excuse. Alas, someone had beaten Elizabeth to the punch before she could offer a wise reply to force her point into play.
”But it would be too boring without you, brother. You should come with us!” Denise frowned as she complained in place.
This little fairy wanted to spend more time with her brother Clark lately.
”Yup, yup. You should go with us, brother. It isn't fun when there's only a few of us.” Luke seconded his sister's plea.
With the trio's cooperation, our bored gamer was doomed from the start.
”Okay then. But you two midgets better behave okay? No playing with your abilities. I don't want you to hurt somebody.” Clark could only say in the end.
”We promise!”
”Yup, we promise!” Luke and Denise answered at the same time but there was mischief in their eyes.
Our bored gamer could only sigh deeply when he saw how his siblings were ganging up on him.
'These brats!'
'I'm afraid that this is gonna be a long day for me.' Clark shook his head and accepted his fate in the hands of his family.
* * *
”SPLASH!” The whole family ended up swimming in the family pool. No one would miss this opportunity especially John and his father Martin.
Both knew that their women were not safe with our boy protagonist around to heat their ladies up for the occasion.
At least they were thankful that Clark was not overtly giving any wrong signals to their partners which saved them a huge load of mental trouble in consequence.
Although John and Martin trusted Clark but they could not help but be insecure when such an Alpha Male descended to walk amongst them on a daily basis. It was not a pretty experience at all.
”Hey! Did I not say that you are not allowed to play with your skills?” Clark shouted when he felt one of his feet got stuck on the tiles of the pool.
The culprit was of course none other than his little brother Luke. He got the ability called Material Phasing which enabled him to walk through solid objects.
What was more op was how Luke could dictate the same power unto anything and anyone he wanted to. It was a broken skill to be honest.
”HAHAHA! Did I startle you, big brother?! I'm cool ain't i?” Luke just laughed and swam in the distance.
The little boy did not even release our bored gamer from being stuck on the pool's floor.
'What to do?'
'If i pull myself out with force, i could break this pool apart.'
'SIGH!'
'Was i this mischievous when I was younger also? I hope not.' Clark thought as he prepared to call Luke one more time.
”SPLASH!” But before he could do that, a huge maw of great white shark showed into the surface.
”BANG!” The shark landed gently on Clark's side and was pretty playful rather than predatory.
It circled our bored gamer's impotent form time and time again before it changed into the cute guise of a beautiful little princess in swimwear.
”Hmmp! You should be more afraid when i do that, big brother!” Denise pouted in irritation. She thought that his brother was no fun at all.
”Hehehe. You know that I'm not good at acting, Denise. But i'll try next time, okay? Now... can you please get Luke and tell him to release my foot from here. I'll play with you afterwards.”
Clark said to his sister.
”Okay, big brother. I'll be back in no time!” Denise smiled and was clearly excited by our bored gamer's promise. She turned into a sailfish and went deep into the pool.
Denise got the ability called Animal Transformation which could make her copy any beast she could think of. Five minutes later and Denise returned with Luke.
