Hero System! Transported to Another World - Chapter 139
Without even knowing it, Alex was spinning like crazy. As he spun, He felt an increased pressure on his fingers. *BANG BANG BANG BANG*
‘Is… Is this what I think it is?’ Alex calmed his mind as assessed his situation. He was in the air, spinning while shooting his gun. ‘The flipping and shooting is more effective when you are surrounded but when we have a large enemy in front, I can manage the spin in such a way that you can dodge the attacks quicker and you would be shooting at multiple parts of his body at once. It’s a bit excessive to do at one person only as there are many things that could go wrong but I wanted to see how effective it would be if I controlled the spin.’ Hades calmly explained.
Alex rolled his eyes, they already landed on the ground and Alex was very dizzy and felt a bit lost. ‘I kind of understand what you mean but I don’t think we should do experiments like that when the enemy is capable of taking me down on his own…’ Alex thought as he watched the bleeding wolf on the croup.
There were many points on his body that were covered in bullet wounds. He slowly got up with difficulty and laughed, ‘Such a weird move for a battle like this… I have to say commendable but At this point, I’ll have to apologize and kill you.’ He jumped to the back of the room and pulled out a small syringe. As he did, Alex slightly panicked, “Is that what I think it is?” He knew that it was a serum.
‘It seems like we might not be strong enough to kill him… But It doesn’t matter anymore. Alex, just buy time. Everything else will be taken care of.’ Hades sounded a tiny bit relieved.
Alex didn’t understand why Hades sounded relieved and told him to buy time but he knew to trust the weapon’s words. Alex jumped to the door of the room to make distance. He tried to open it but it was locked. “HAHAHA, You already know what this huh? Well, why don’t we try that same move again? It looked like it could kill a man pretty easily if they weren’t ready… Come on, I want to see you try and fail!” The man sounded like a beast at this moment. His words were barely understandable.
His body had grown even larger now and he looked even more like a wolf than before. Alex was slightly reminded of the shadow wolves he had to battle in the challenge to get Hades. The wolf roared and ran towards Alex in top speed. Alex had no other option but to fire as many shots as he could towards the wolf. He needed to damage as much as he could as his life was in danger.
However, it seemed like Alex didn’t even need to worry too much. A large boom came from the walls of the room. Alex looked over to see a massive hole in the wall. He tried to search for the cause of the hole but he saw nothing. ‘Look at the wolf, Kid.’ He heard Hades and turned towards the wolf and saw it lying on the ground.
Alex looked at the person who had taken down the wolf and was shocked. “Hana?” Alex asked, slightly confused.
The one who took down the wolf was indeed Hana. She turned towards Alex and furrowed her eyebrows. She gave Alex a cold look and spoke, “Well, I do have a lot of questions for you, Alex… But let’s deal with this situation at first. Get me some materials to bind this guy. I need to question him a bit.” She ordered.
Alex, feeling relieved to see Hana, nodded and smiled, ‘She’s still as cold as ever but it’s nice to see her. At least my life was saved by her.’ Alex thought.
‘Kid, we were lucky that she also seemed to be searching for this place… Now, just do as she says, and let’s get this over with. I don’t think I can advise you on anything else but Listen to the Cold Woman.’ Hades seemed to be slightly submissive to Hana.
Alex nodded and walked outside of the room. As he did, He saw the two awakened who took him to this room lying on the floor, a blood puddle around their bodies. ‘They’re alive but barely…’ Alex noted.
After some time, Alex and Hana stood side by side. They looked at a bunch of people on the desert sad, all bound by rope.
Hana looked at Alex and asked, “What the hell happened?” She seemed to be curious.
Alex scratched his head and spoke, “well, I don’t think I can answer that… I can say that I got a bit stronger… Some time did pass so my beard and hair grew as well…”
Hearing Alex, Hana nodded, “I guess you have your own secrets but I hope you’re ready for the punishment…” She turned towards Alex.
Alex looked confused and asked, “Wha-” However, He was cut off by a quick punch on the chin.
Alex flew into the doors of the underground warehouse. His entire body shook as it slowly tried to process what happened. ‘Kid, Never piss off this woman… Her powers are centuries ahead of yours…’ Hades said softly.
Alex, already shocked by the attack, grabbed his chin and stood up. His body still slowly processing the attack.
Hana looked at Alex and spoke, “That’s just from me. Should have told me that you were gone training for a long yome or something like that. 6 entire months. You vanished into thin air for six months… Many people believe that you’re dead by now. Even Master Zhun said that he couldn’t feel any connection to you” She seemed to be annoyed but at the same time, slightly relieved.
Alex laughed awkwardly but he was shocked himself. ‘Six months?! How the hell did six months pass so easily?’
Hades answered Alex’s question, ‘Well, You spent a long time in the cube, absorbing its powers… You needed more time to be accustomed to it. Even now, you’re not entirely used to it. So once you do absorp it entirely, you’ll be a lot more powerful…’
Alex shook his head, He couldn’t get over the shock of so much time passing. He understood the reason but it still felt wild to him.
He rubbed his chin once again but realized something, ‘Why doesn’t my chin hurt at all? The back of my head hurts more from the impact of the fall rather than the punch itself…’ Alex was once again confused.
