Chapter 26 By the Power of Vibration (1/2)
Alex was already feeling sleepy by the time that the flying ship he's in stopped its flight.
”Oh, are we here already?” Alex mumbled to himself as he looked around him. ”That trip was pretty long… considering how fast this ship is.”
Lord Gallius let out contemptuous snort to Alex, as if he could not believe what Alex was saying.
”If you do not know, the World Diagram is regarded as the most important invention and treasure of the current society. For it to have countless security measures is a must, and that security measures are what slowed my ship down.” Lord Gallius said these words with slight venom in them, as if he wanted to show Alex his mediocrity.
”I get it compadre, so can you please calm yourself down?” Alex shook his head, effectively removing his drowsiness.
”Don't call me your friend.” Lord Gallius said as he stood up from his seat.
The numerous medals pinned on his chest all jiggled, making Alex hear a cacophony of metal tinkles.
”The only reason you are allowed to be in this place is because Miss Alina vetoed that you will behave” Lord Gallius said as he gave Alina a warm look, which she duly ignored.
”So for the visit this time, I, Lord Gallius, will be accompanying you to make sure that you will not do anything rash.” Alex could not help but wince as he heard what Lord Gallius said.
Now that this stuck-up blond decided to accompany Alex on seeing the World Diagram, finding a way to attack and destroy the World Diagram later just became extremely harder.
”Don't you have like, any important things to do rather than accompanying me and Alina?” Alex said as he tried to remove Lord Gallius on the visit. ”It's just a visit…”
”Hmph, the higher-ups have already decided that I will guard you, vermin!” Lord Gallius said to Alex as he stood up over him.
With Lord Gallius' healthy and tall body, he easily towered over Alex, whose height was just comparable to that of a normal adult.
Anyone who's stared down by someone as 'big' as Lord Gallius would have been shaking on the spot already.
But Alex was Alex, so the only the thing that he did was scoff at the glowering Lord Gallius.
”You've got guts!” Lord Gallius roared as he saw Alex's blatant disrespectful attitude for him. ”It seems like I need to personally discipline you!”
At the instant that Lord Gallius said these words, Alex felt everything around him starting to vibrate endlessly.
All the equipment, metal apparatus, and even the water and wine were all vibrating continuously.
Heck, Alex could 'see' with his EM Sense that even the air molecules around him were all vibrating too.
”Vibration. That is your Esper Ability, right?” Alex muttered as he looked around him in wonder.
Even if Alex could feel that his whole body was vibrating too, he did not feel flustered or worried.
”Hmph, if you know my power, then you should be already aware of its lethality.” Lord Gallius said as he gave Alex a withering gaze.
For these words by Lord Gallius, Alex's only reply was a nod with his still vibrating head.
Even though vibration looks like a lame power, Lord Gallius' Vibration is very lethal as he uses it effectively.
One of the ways that Lord Gallius uses his power was by forcing objects to vibrate themselves at an extremely high frequency.
By doing this, the structural integrity of these objects will weaken greatly, allowing any external stresses to destroy these objects easily.
There are even instances that objects disintegrate because of too much vibration.
Not only that, but Lord Gallius can also greatly increase his offense by vibrating his weapons.
If Lord Gallius chooses to vibrate a sword in an extremely high frequency, the resulting sword will be able to cut through anything with ease!
However, these applications are only surface level applications of Lord Gallius' ability.
When Alex saw Lord Gallius' hologram 8 days ago, he decided to make a research about this guy, and there Alex found more ridiculous things about Lord Gallius.
With his ability, Lord Gallius can actually manipulate temperature itself!
Temperature is basically just the measure of the vibrations of the particles of an object.
The more vibrations of the particles there is, the hotter an object will be.
Conversely, the lower the number of vibrations of the object's particles, the colder that object will be.
And if there are no vibrations at all, the object will have the temperature of Zero Kelvin, which is the absolute zero.
All this information showed Alex why Lord Gallius acted like he owned the world.
”Your power is pretty awesome, but are you really allowed to use it on me right now?” Alex said with a hint of smirk on his face.
If it was the Alex of a week ago that was here, he would be not as confident.
But his week-long combat with Alina brought Alex's strength to much higher levels.
Right now, Alex's Mental power was at Tier 150, meaning that his Range is already 150 meters by now.
Its still somewhat far compared to Alina's almost 1000 kilometer Range, but reaching this level in just around a week is extremely impressive.
”Hmph. I am just showing you what happens if you dare trying something funny.” Lord Gallius growled as the vibrations ceased.
”I think you should give me a better warning.” Alex replied as he gave out a low sigh. ”After all, what you did earlier is like just a slight tease. Nobody likes to be just teased, you know?”
”….” By this point, Alex started to praise Lord Gallius' self-control.
”Well, now that you have said your piece, can't you start sending us two towards our destination?” Alex said as he flitted behind Alina.
At this position he could smell the fragrance of Alina's hair wafting towards him.
