Novel Bin Chapter 224 Meeting Alissa
"Looks like you have your memories too, Caroline."
Her blue coloured eyes, deep as the azure sky itself, lectured against my image with a glint of thankfulness in them. If not for the brave heart and abnormalities that one has faced, her eyes might have blessed some water into that blue tranquil. One can observe the curly pink hairs reaching down up to her chest, smooth as they were silky, shining against the sun so bright.
Her bright face, now brightened with the release of tension, her smiling lips that were about to cry a moment ago, her ears turned red, which were paler than last second. She looked like a fairy reborn as she took a step forward.
"Michael!!" Caroline shouted as she jumped at me, hugged me tightly as if she would never let me go. Her strength only increased as time passed, I felt the love her body was showing.
Patting her head, I looked around to see a couple of people observing us with slight jealousy. While others were dumbfounded to see this scene actually occurring, their eyes widened, wondering if they were looking at what they were looking at.
"Hey! We are creating a commotion,"whispering in her ears, I patted her head, to which she replied back in a silent melodious voice, loud enough for me to hear me,"Does it matter?"
A smile formed on my face as I answered,"It doesn\'t." After all, none of these matters except what we do. For a dying world, they can cry or be jealous all they want, but the only things that will hinder or promote us will be us only.
"I was scared,"she continued as she tightened her grip a bit more,"I was scared to lose you forever again." I could feel her tears over my shoulders as I stood there for another few moments.
"Don\'t worry. It will never happen…. I promise,"I answered as I continued patting her head before she finally loosened her grip a little.
"Miss Escarte! What are you doing here? Stepping in a boys\' hostel premise for a girl is a violation of our rules." An elderly woman standing at a distance from here observed us with contempt and confusion.
The contempt was for me while the confusion was for Caroline. All the more because it wasn\'t known that Caroline liked me. She hid it really properly from everyone, including me. If not for Alissa, I would have never known that as well.
"Let\'s go,"I said, ignoring that lady over there and Caroline nodded before she began following me with silent steps.
"And where do you think you both are going? I want both of you in my office b-\'\' shouted that lady, the professor of biochemistry and also the head of the female dormitory. My eyes turned back as I looked at her for a few moments,
"Miss Lewis, why don\'t you take your husband for a check of Stomach Carcinoma for a change? Might save a life or two."
Well, the tumor is almost developed and will be only a few more months before it becomes known what is going on. Whether they can save him or not, it will be only dependent upon them and their capability.
"What do you mean by that?!" alarmed a little, she looked at me, while I moved forward without stopping as Caroline followed me. Our destination, the Research lab where Alissa was working right now.
As we moved, we passed by many people who were looking at us with strange gazes. Some wanted to approach me but stopped after looking at Caroline, who was holding my arm tightly against her chest.
All their eyes had only one question- When did this happen? Why him?
Moving towards the Research lab, I opened the door while the others followed behind me. It didn\'t take much time to find Alissa, as she was currently standing at a distance as she observed me carefully. Her eyes first smiled at me before they focused on Caroline with a really surprised look.
I could hear whispers from the outside of the people who were observing the whole situation, as if a drama was unfolding in front of their very eyes.
"What do you think she will do?"
"Such a bastard! He already has Goddess Alissa with him, yet he dared to bring another girl in front of her!"
"I wonder what Miss Alissa would be thinking right now?"
Alissa, on the other hand, was confused a little as she observed me more and more. Her eyes then transferred to those people looking through the gate and she spoke in a dominant manner,
"Are you guys done?"
There was pressure in her words, making everyone shudder before they hurriedly left from there. Then she took one step at a time towards us and, looking at her strict expression, Caroline gulped a little as she separated herself from me and stood in a submissive position.
"Care to explain what is going on?" She asked as her eyes narrowed at me while she stood there with her arms crossed, waiting for me to explain the situation.
\'So she isn\'t one of the five, huh?\' I thought as I peeked at Caroline, who was making a sad expression as perhaps she, too, was thinking about the same things as I was.
"Let\'s go to the office," I said, and she nodded before turning around as she walked slowly without muttering a single word at all. I walked behind her with Caroline beside me as she observed me with a knowing look.
Covered by the silence, our walk took us to the office and Alissa, moved to the seat of the head of the Research department as she sat there while I helped Caroline sitting on a chair, which I placed right beside Alissa\'s and myself standing against the center table of the office.
"Well, let\'s begin from tomorrow, shall we?" I spoke as I looked at Caroline and turned to Alissa. I began explaining what happened later with the whole thing around the university as I described the whole process step by step.
Soon I reached the point where the Zombie Apocalypse occurred and she had a look of ridicule on her face, yet I continued describing my experience throughout the Apocalypse as I reached the final steps of the entire thing.
This time, I did not leave even the [System] as I explained to her how the System was responsible for my entire power up and how I got powerful because of it. Caroline, who was listening to the whole story, was even more dumbfounded than Alissa, as she did not know about the [System]\'s existence up until now. But if I am going to truly trust them, then I need to come clean, or else there will always be an issue in various forms.
Still, I didn\'t tell them everything, such as a couple of my skills and God powers… just a few things here and there which I believed they would need to know if I need my plan to fully function.
And after all was said, Alissa stood up as she spoke,
"I didn\'t think you would think of me as a 6-year-old child, who will believe any nonsense you might throw at her," and started walking out of the room.
[Time Rejection!]
I used my ability and Alissa found herself sitting back in the chair as if she had never stood up from there. Her eyes widen a little as I continued speaking with a smile on my face,
"Oh! Come on now. I didn\'t say I lost all my powers, did I?"
