Hero System! Transported to Another World - Chapter 140
Hana nodded and a small smile fell on her face, “At least you’re stronger now… Let me see…” She looked at Alex from top to bottom and smiled once again, “Around the early stages of A rank… Congratulations, Alex. The last time I saw you, you were at the early stages of B rank but in just six months of disappearing, you’ve gained an entire rank. I guess that makes sense why this little wolf was damaged…”
Hana then walked slightly closer to Alex and spoke in a deeper tone, “But that still doesn’t explain why he had bullet holes… Alex, care to explain that?” She seemed to be curious.
Alex laughed awkwardly and nodded, ‘I can’t keep everything a secret. I guess I can just say that I found two useful guns…’ He proceeded to open his coat and pull out Hades. Hana looked at Hades and furrowed her eyebrows. She then turned to Alex, “Hmm, Dark?” She mumbled.
Alex didn’t hear Hana’s mumble. “I found these two guns while training. I’ve just been fond of them so I started using them. That’s about it.” He smiled. However, Hades’s rumbled slightly when he felt Hana’s gaze pierce him. ‘This woman knows a lot more than I had expected… I felt the blessed powers in her but To think there was someone who was knowledgeable of dark powers… Alex either found a scary foe or a future ally… I hope it’s the latter.’ He seemed to fear Hana.
Hana nodded when she heard Alex and spoke, “Well, It’s fine. As long as you’re more powerful than before, I don’t really care how… Unless it’s the devils involved but I don’t need to go there yet.” Hana then turned towards the sky and sighed.
“At least leaving for so long also did you another favor.” She softly spoke.
Alex looked at Hana and Questioned, “What is that?” He was curious about what Hana meant. Hearing Alex’s questions, Hana laughed slightly and pulled out her phone, “You’re new looks is way better than the first time I saw you, Alex. It’s clean and suits you. You do look older however but I guess there is a charm in that.” Hana turned away and seemed to call someone.
Alex smiled when he heard Hana’s compliment and thanked her. He turned towards the awakened that he had captured with Hana. “These guys seemed to be exactly who I thought they were, The ones who were capturing people to experiment on… But we didn’t find any of the victims…” Alex changed the topic.
After the phone call, Hana looked at Alex and nodded, “That is true but you don’t need to concern yourself with the work here. I’d recommend you going home and resting. It’s been so long, I’m sure you haven’t had enough rest. So, go and get proper rest. And If you don’t want to get stared at, I’d recommend getting some contact lenses.” She smiled one last time before reverting back to her usual cold look.
Alex looked confused once again. He took out his phone and turned the camera on to see his pupils were red. ‘Hades, what else has changed that you haven’t old me?’ Alex asked.
Hades took some time before replying, ‘Kid, There are many changes to your body, but I guess that’s the last thing that’s changed on the exterior. I apologize for not telling you but It’s just a side effect of your powers… Everything you battle, Your eyes will glow red. It also represents your emotions, the angrier you are, The brighter it will glow… It’s your choice on the contact lenses thing but in the end, it would just be a hassle. The lenses will have a weird glow around it during battle so, at the end, you can’t really hide it.’ Hades explained slowly.
Alex nodded, he didn’t like the fact that he had so many external changes but he couldn’t do anything about it so Alex just had to accept that some parts of his body have changed. He looked at Hana who seemed to be interrogating the man in charge of the base. She had told him to wait for the helicopter to come so Alex sat and watched as Hana brutally beat down the man until he broke. She even asked Alex to heal him at times so she wouldn’t kill him by accident.
After some time, Hana sat next to Alex and sighed, “These people are getting tougher every day. The last guy I interrogated just spit out the information I needed instantly but this jackass had to get beat down bloody before speaking…” She looked annoyed.
Alex just laughed awkwardly and thought back the beating she gave the man until he broke. Remembering just the image game Alex cold sweat.
After some time passed, Alex heard a helicopter off in the distance. Hana looked at Alex and stood up, “I won’t ask you about many things. That means I won’t but you’ll have to answer the others… This helicopter was called by me for private transportation, not called by the bureau. So, we’ll drop off at the top of the hotel, You go to bed right after that. While doing so, think of an excuse for everything or just act clueless… Anything could work really but think of something and look confident… I’ll be with you for an hour or so tonight so you don’t need to worry about food. But I’ll leave right after. I need some things to take care of.” Hana said in a soft tone.
Alex nodded and spoke, “I’ll do as you say. Thank you for covering for me.” He smiled at Hana. Alex appreciated Hana helping him out so much, it meant a lot to him.
The two entered the helicopter and slowly took off. Alex looked at the ground as he saw a few cars coming towards the base. Hana looked at the cars and spoke, “If you were curious about what we were about to do with those criminals, well, the bureau already sent a few people to take care of them once I was done with them. It seems like they’ve just arrived.”
