Hero System! Transported to Another World - Chapter 151: Wrong Information
Alex turned to Nana who was fidgeting with her clothes. She noticed Alex’s gaze and started fidgeting with her clothes even more. Alex was very curious about what she wanted to say as it looked like Nana wanted to truly say something.
Alex looked outside and spoke, “If you want to ask something, please do so. I’m not some big scary guy that will eat you up in an instant. So don’t be uncomfortable, ask away.” He smiled as he turned to Nana.
Nana looked at Alex while flushing red. She looked guilty and smiled awkwardly. She gathered her courage and spoke, “Umm… I was curious about who you were talking about… Also, about you in general. Every piece of information on your powers, except a few ones obviously is wrong. I heard a lot of your powers but something is off now that I look at you… They said you were lower B but looking at you, you’re a bit more powerful than me. You also have the aura of pitch darkness, I can’t look through that… And every now and then there is a weird delay on when you do something… Almost like you asking someone for advice or waiting for an answer before speaking…” Her eyes turned a tiny bit serious before suddenly turning even more red and shying away.
Alex had no clue on how to reply to Nana. Everything she said was correct. His powers were probably clouded by the system or the system’s potential to make him stronger was so far that her powers couldn’t catch on to him. Alex would always ask for Hades’s advice when he needed it, like when Master Zhun asked for his weapon and so on. He turned to Nana and shrugged, “You could say I do ask something, that someone being myself. I just think through certain things a bit longer just to be sure that it’s the right decision or not. And my powers… I don’t really know. They are a mystery to me as well, and I have them. I can see how you would be so confused by it but to be honest, I’m confused by my powers as well. I mean, I could only initially cast a weapon to fight reapers but just a day later, I could heal myself. After that, I found that I could heal others as well with that power. So I really can’t say much about it.” He answered almost all questions honestly, only leaving out The things about the system and Hades.
Nana furrowed her eyes and nodded. She turned to the floor once again, a feeling of relief in her eyes as he processed everything. After some time, She turned to Alex and nervously asked, “What… What about your love life… Can I hear about that?” Her face was extremely red at this point and she seemed to be regretting every word she spoke.
However, Before Alex could answer, The car stopped and the door to Nana’s side opened. A man looked inside and saw Nana’s extremely red face and sighed. He pulled her out of the car and turned to Alex, “Um, I apologize for any weird questions she asks. This one is very direct and blunt with her words and sometimes doesn’t properly realize what she asked or did until she has done it.” He then opened Alex’s door and smiled.
“I’m Jacob, Master Vis’s student. Nana here is Sir Fire’s successful student. Her abilities go into energy and auras so her questions might have sounded really weird if she spoke of colors or similar things.” Jacob said with a smile.
Alex smiled and nodded as he got out of the car. As he stepped out of the car, Jacob looked at Alex in surprise. Alex turned to Jacob to see that he was an entire head height shorter than Himself. Jacob spoke, “It seems like either the data were very wrong, or an adult can somehow continue to grow in height… Or the least likely, you aren’t really Alex… The first two are not as much concerning but the last one is a possible thing that could mean that you’re a hostile.” Jacob seemed to be a tiny bit more aggressive.
Alex shook his head and smiled, “I think that I’m myself so the last option is wrong… I do agree that I have grown a lot taller than what I was some time ago, so that must be my ability… But I don’t think you’re saying that just by looking at my Height are you?” He looked at Jacob closely.
Jacob furrowed his eyebrows and walked away, “I apologize for my rudeness… I just get a tiny bit fidgety when the information comes wrong. Nana will take you to the research room where you will be physically checked for everything. You will also have a small combat assessment. I’ve heard that you’ve already done that earlier this day but we’ll just do it again just in case. I hope you don’t mind that. I will take my leave now, goodbye.” He walked away from the car.
Nana, who was still red from the question turned to Alex and softly spoke, “Please…. Please follow me.” She said as she quickly turned towards the facility. Alex also turned his attention to the facility and looked slightly shocked. “There are more people here… And the building seemed to have been renovated…” He spoke. Nana didn’t reply however Alex saw her nod.
Alex walked into the facility and saw Buster sitting on the couch waiting for him. He turned to Alex and smiled, “Alex!” A big smile on his face.
Alex smiled back and spoke, “Buster… It’s been a while I guess. How have you been ?” He spoke. It wasn’t that long for Alex but he spoke as if it was. Buster smiled and walked to Alex, “It’s been a weird 6 months, Alex… However, Leave that for now. You need to go to your check up. I’ll be joining soon after.” He smiled as he sat back down on the couch and fiddled with his tablet.
