Chapter 14 So you also have a Fetish
Alex was not sure if the queasy feeling that he is having right now is due to his fear of getting discovered by Alina, or just plain nervousness froirl
”What a wimp” Asteria scoffed as she saw Alex's nervous look ”You will just go outside and roam! How could you look that scared?”
”Shut it pixie” Alex muttered as he fixed his shi+rt ”I bet you have zero experience on things like this too”
”Wha-what do you think you are saying!” Asteria stuttered as she retracted her glare ”With this queen's beauty, many ht” Alex's noncommittal reply clearly showed that he did not believe Asteria's claireed to join that Alina is for the bonus ht?” Asteria taunted as she waved her hands ”I bet that without the reward, you will do your best to avoid her”
”” Alex knew that Asteria was right
If it was before, Alex would not attempt to contact Alina at all But now that he was practically forced by his temporary teacher to join her, combined with the rewards of the bonus mission, and Alex was left with no choice but to comply
After all, it will look suspicious if Alex continued on refusing
”That sty teacher of yours really dideasier today” Asteria mumbled in dissatisfaction ”Its just obvious that he cares more for his niece than you”
Alex frowned after hearing this, as he re
Instead of a, Clint actually made his control of the EM Waves weaker, which allowed Alex to pull more of them
This saved Alex from more body pain, but still, he was not happy to be treated like this
As for the ability training, it actually just went on just like yesterday, although Alex realized that he had lesser mistakes now
Fro yesterday made his attempt today to become easier
This just further reduced Alex's exhaustion that day
Because of these factors, Alex was only able to reach Tier 35 today
It was a pretty dismal improvement compared to yesterday, but Clint just waved it off, as he said that the training on the 3rd day will be much more difficult so that Alex could catch up with all the possible Tiers that he lost
This of course hter
With the 2nd day of the training finished, Alex has to suit himself up for his appointment with Alina
But before he met up with her, Alex decided to have a private talk with Clint
”Master, can you care to tell o out with lare
”I do not believe that you can just casually ether without any reason…”
”It's out of desperation, ok?” Clint replied exasperatedly as he looked at Alex
”” Alex was unable to muster any word, not because of the way Clint answered him, but with the way his eyes looked
Clint's eyes looked extre incredibly painful to him
Clint took Alex's silence as the consent to continue talking as he said,
”My niece Alina has been through a lot already I cannot tell that much about her, but what I can only tell you is that she is currently risking her life for her sister” Clint said as he let out a weary sigh
”Poor girl had no choice but to do it, or else her only real faht you were her uncle” Alex pointed out tactlessly
”I am her uncle because I volunteered to do so” Clint replied with an edge with his voice ”Alina's sister requested for o, and that's what I did”
Alex felt his head swirling as he realized that he is now hearing an extreo, then why is she like that now?”
”As I told you earlier, it's all because for her sister” Clint replied quickly
”So, Alina left you 5 years ago and placed her life in dangerous situations just for her sister?” Alex ht Alina's sister was the 2nd strongest Esper?”
”Was” Clint said this ith eht now, Alina's sister is incapacitated, and is being kept in a facility to keep her alive”
”I still do not get how that can force Alina to leave you” Alex replied hesitantly
”Just like what I told you for the 3rd time, I'm unable to tell you the reason” Clint coldly said, and this time he talked in a way that forced back any of Alex's retort
”Oh and Alex, if you are wondering whyout Alina that much in her situation with her sister, you can say that we are being forced to not help” It was clear at this point that Clint's anger was not only focused at Alex
”Oh, now this really gets more complicated” Alex mumbled to himself as he fixed his hair
Right now Alex was fully convinced that his bonus iti twists, sobackstory, I aht help ht to hi to calm down
”Alex, we just want to at least let Alina experience how to be real teenager for once” Clint said as he gave Alex a pleading look
”She spent , and the rest of her life until now risking her life for her sister That obviously deprived Alina of things that she should experience”
