Curse The Mainframe - Chapter 414

Ye Sha grabbed Alec later when the crowd dispersed. “I think I saw some of your dad’s clan members looking at you just now.”

“Oh?” Alec said, disinterested.

Of course, he had seen them as well, but it wasn’t like he was required to make nice with them. They were strangers anyhow.

What did they have to do with him?

Therefore, he didn’t take them to heart.

Not to mention, this was another realm altogether. Unless the realms merged or something else unconceivable, their interaction in the future shouldn’t be too much.

More than that, they were all Sins, which meant that they were more likely to fight than get along. Alec had no idea how they managed to have a whole clan of Sins in this city and keep them there.

Even if they interacted, it wasn’t like he was going to be staying in his father’s house for long.

Staying in a married couple’s house like this… was a bit awkward.

Especially with hearing as good as his.

Sometimes he couldn’t look either of them in the eye.

The only one who could sleep so soundly was Ye Sha!

“Let’s go,” Alec said with a smile. There wasn’t anything else that was likely to catch his attention, so they might as well just leave.

With the people that still gave them glances from time to time, it would probably be a joke if they managed to attract some thieves into coming after them.

Well, rather, it was a joke for anyone to aim for them.

Because Alec was a Meister, and if Ye Sha could get himself to be more combat alert, he would be on par with Alec at the very least. That was a body that was made out of the finest materials one had to offer. It would have been stranger if he was any weaker.

It was only because Alec had been infusing those pebbles with his magic that he managed to even hurt Ye Sha at all.

The two of them made their way out of the ‘downtown’ area and moved towards the clan compounds.

Alec almost wanted to sigh when he felt the people moving ‘discreetly’ around them.

No doubt they were trying to set up an ambush, thinking that they were easy targets.

Two, three…

There were about ten of them in total, and none of them were even in the advanced stage.

Alec wanted to roll his eyes.

Didn’t Ye Sha say that it was easier for people to cultivate here? They obviously hadn’t been working very hard. In the other realm, they would have been the weakest of the weak.

They continued to walk casually. Even Ye Sha noticed them since they were being so obvious and so loud.

The duo walked to a path that wasn’t obvious from the outside, acting like they were taking a shortcut.

The male (and some female) bandits surrounded them, their faces were not good.

There was wretched smile on their faces, and there was a greedy light in their eyes that could not be hidden from them.

They were obviously up to no good.

Ye Sha and Alec were less than bothered by them.

Even with a single strike from them, they could take them down without any problem whatsoever.

It just so happened that it had been a while since Alec had fought anyone…

Ye Sha casually leaned against the wall, looking tired. Finally, he wasn’t Alec’s punching bag anymore…

One of the bandits spoke up to threaten them. “Hand over the money, and you won’t get hurt.”

Ye Sha rolled his eyes so hard that his brain hurt. That was the most original line that he’d ever heard.

Even villains in B-rated movies weren’t this bad.

It was so damn cliché!

Also, he should have known that hanging out with a Main Character would attract this kind of attention to them. It was more bothersome than anything else.

The bandits circled around them tighter, leaving no chance of their targets escaping.

Not that Alec and Ye Sha had any intention of doing so in the first place.

The bandits saw that not only were their targets not afraid, they even seemed to be disdainful of them. It enraged them instantly.

Some of them were briefly hesitant. Could it be that they had met some hidden experts this time?

However, that wasn’t very likely. Even if this person had jet-black hair, he didn’t have the Klein Clan’s signature red eyes.

He likely wasn’t a Sin anyway, so they should be fine.

They ignored the alarm bells ringing in their heads and pressed on anyway, which was their mistake.

In the end, Alec just played with all ten people to his heart’s content before throwing them in a pile and leaving them there, having taken off the edge to his bloodl.u.s.t. He also managed to get a bit more information from them that was considered common sense here that Ye Sha hadn’t managed to find.

If it wasn’t because Aeden had really given him too little time, he would have gone out to sate his roaring blood before the dinner banquet with the Sins to give him more of an edge.

In the end, he had to do it so clumsily like this, which wasn’t putting him in a stellar mood even if his bloodl.u.s.t was a bit lower.

Now, it was finally controllable levels and wouldn’t boil over at any given opportunity.

With satisfaction, the two left, leaving behind a pile of groaning bandits who were both stunned and disbelieving in turns, confused, and questioning their life.

Maybe they should stop being bandits…

If the target they picked this time – which seemed so innocuous – was such a big shot. Who knew when they would one day offend someone they couldn’t afford to offend?

By the time they returned home, it was already mid-day, and Aeden was pacing around nervously inside their house.

Annalise, on the other hand, was very calm. She casually wrote in a notebook of hers, taking notes as she cross-referenced a book.

Her husband just had to burn off nervous energy by pacing. It was making her dizzy looking at his quick speeds going back and forth, so she just stopped watching him.

Aeden suddenly stopped in front of her. “Do you think they’ve suddenly run away?”

Annalise looked at her husband blankly. Did he really just say that? Did he lose all his braincells from worrying about introducing Alec to the clan?

Her blank look must have conveyed something to him, because he actually took a step back to think.

That’s right, what was he actually worrying about? That Alec wouldn’t show?

This wasn’t like him at all.

So, he slowly calmed down and sat down next to his wife on the sofa, taking out his sword to sharpen it.

It was to this sight that the two of them came back to.

The married couple looked very harmonious. Annalise was using her husband’s thigh as a writing board and Aeden’s hand was absently playing with his wife’s hair.

Instantly, Alec felt like he’d been fed dog food, and his face darkened. Especially since he couldn’t see Elysia at all.

It had only been a few days, but he already missed her like half of him wasn���t there.

He suddenly felt pricked, and he gave the two a curt if politely worded greeting before heading upstairs.

The married couple looked at him with confusion.

“What’s wrong with Alec?” Annalise took the initiative to ask Ye Sha.

Ye Sha looked briefly puzzled before he smirked. “Ah, he’s probably missing his little girlfriend.”

Annalise immediately sat up and dragged Ye Sha to sit down.

She looked very serious as she stared him deep in the eyes.

Ye Sha looked at Aeden for help, only to find the man glaring at him.

Helplessly, he looked back at Annalise.

“Tell us everything,” she said, grilling him.
