Chapter 16 Star-Crusted Dagger
Alex could not help but feel elated as he saw the satisfied de let out by Alina
But this alsohi Alina next?” AlexAlina to the police station
But with Alina loving streetfood and her actually knowing soht that maybe Alina will also have some acquaintance in the police station
Now that Alex thought about it, Alina will surely have soiven the fact that she's a powerful Esper
”So I should cross off the police station then” Alex ht now
”…” With Alex deep in his thoughts and Alina not taking the initiative to talk, both of them just stood on their spot aardly
”Hey Alin-” But before Alex could talk, he suddenly heard a powerful roar above hi as his ear bled lightly
As for Alina, her pleasant demeanor disappeared, as it was replaced by the same aura that Alex felt when she tried to kill him
Alina is back in her killer mode
She held a sword in each of her hands as she stared right above her warily
There, both Alina and Alex could see an enorht above theon Esper City has a hole in it noith the body of the enorh the hole
Chunks of brokenof the hole, which fell to the houses below it
Everyone who sahat happened started to panic as they did their best to run away froer
The enormous creature looked like a lizard with three heads, with each head spitting flames Its body was scaled, and it had 10 li barbs
This appearance and its own thunderous entrance clearly painted that this mutated lizard is not here for some warmhearted talk
”Wait, is that an Intruder?” Alex asked as both he and Alina started to run towards the direction of the monster
”That is an Intruder, and from the looks of it, this Intruder is clearly one suited for battles” Alina said as she waved her swords around her
”Scwhing, scwhing, schwing”
A large block of metal, which was about to fall on a house, were cut into three pieces by Alina's move
What made Alex impressed was the fact that the said metal block was around 800 meters away from theht as he saw that the lizard's body was now halfway through the hole that it made
”That creature is at least a Class SS Intruder” Alina muttered to herself as she run towards the direction of the enormous creature ”But for it to be a Class SSS Intruder is also plausible”
”Are you going to fight that?” Alex e the Intruder was
”What choice do I have?” Alina muttered as their distance from the lizard reached 2 kilometers
With the speed that he and Alina was running right now, there h ti
Alex immediately realized this point as he asked Alina,
”Will Clint be allowed to assist us here? With his power level, he ht only need one zap to finish that lizard off”
”It is only when the power of the Intruder was Class Z that sorimly said as she vaulted over an overturned vehicle ”This Intruder right here is way behind that power level, so Uncle Clint will not be allowed to attack it”
”Drats” That was all that Alex could say right now
”Can you hurt it?” Right now, Alex knew that it was Alina that will have the higher chance of hurting the lizard in front of theainst it” Alina said as she quickened her pace ”The higher the class of the reater their resistance will be to my attacks A Class Z Intruder will just treat ht only deal surface daood” Alex exclai now, or else the lizard will kill the both of the to acclimatize with my life here, and then this sty lizard just appeared” Alex darkly thought to himself as he looked at Alina ”But at least my date is now finished…”
When Alina and Alex ithin a kilometer of the lizard, Alina started to brandish her swords once more
This ti 16 rifts in space heading towards the lizard
”Spurt!” The lizard's skin split open as they were unable to stop the space slashes
But the injury stopped there, failing to penetrate further
”It's a Class SS” Alina muttered as she fished out a phone-size crystal card fro Headquarters” AlinaHeadquarters”
Alex then heard a static sound coe above the crystal card
”A hologra projected from the crystal
The person was a handso blue eyes and chiseled jaw h to swoon thea heroic air,hiuy's body uy with this kind of face
Alex also noticed that this handso Alina an extremely fond look
”Either this blonde is Alina's relative, or he's one of Alina's adet disgruntled with this blonde
”Hey Alina! How are things right now?” The blonde looked extremely happy as he talked to Alina Alina on the other hand, did not look that happy as she said,
”While I aon Esper City, a Class SS Intruder suddenly appeared, tearing a hole through the doon Esper City in the process”
Alina continued talking as she ignored the blonde's ashen expression
”I know that the World Diagraured that I must also report it to the EWO Headquarters personally”
As it turns out, the blonde's face was ashen not because of the Intruder
”Wait, you have a date right now?” The blonde blurted out in surprise as he stared at Alina ”Is that true?”
”I just told you that earlier, Lord Gallius” Alina said with a hint of edge in her tone
The blonde, whose name was Lord Gallius, swiveled his projected head until he saw Alex, as standing beside Alina
”So, you are Alina's date huh” Lord Gallius ed to force Alina to date you, but I will ht now, a lot of civilians will be in danger if you don'twhatever nonsense Lord Gallius was talking about ”If you have a beef with Alex, just deal with it after the Intruder”
”Alex huh I will reave a nod to Alina
The crystal card then blinked as the projection disappeared
”So, that guy…” Alex was about to ask Alina so when Alina waved him off
”You said that you have awakened your Esper Ability, right? Then help ”
