- Chapter 107 - Chapter 107 You're a weirdo
Chapter 107: You’re a weirdo Chapter 107: You’re a weirdo After walking for a while, Alice stopped.
She turned to face Micheal who had been obediently following her and asked, “What do you know about the ‘devil’s shrine’ auction in West Avenue?” She went straight to the point.
“Oh, so we aren’t beating around the bush this time.” He said, quite amused and she shook her head.
“What’s the point?” She looked directly at him with a stern gaze.
“I don’t got all day, so tell me already.
You said you know where it was, right?
How do I get there?” “And may I ask why you want to go to the devil’s shrine?” Michael asked, folding his arms.
Alice closed her eyes, she really was exhausted.
Did she have to answer him?
“I won’t talk unless I know why you’re going there.” Micheal said, already standing behind her with his hands on her shoulders, massaging her lightly.
“I have some business to take care of.” She said, slapping his hands off.
“So, just tell me already.” “Hm,” Micheal took a long hard look at her, closed his eyes in thoughts and then answered, “You’re still not clear enough.
What sort of ‘business’ are you referring to?
Are you going to bust them because they’re an illegal organization or…?” “Why don’t you choose?” Alice asked, suddenly pulling him by the neck.
But the force wasn’t pulling him.
She just had an invisible hand around his neck, stranding him.
“I know you’re a nice guy, kind too, but I really don’t got all day.
So just tell me what you know about that auction and we can both be on our way with no necks snapped.
How’s that?” Micheal stared at her, barely catching a breath since she was gripping tight on his windpipe.
She was so daring.
So dangerous.
So…
Fierce.
He liked it.
His lips curled up and he laughed.
“Wait, do you still have the strength to laugh?” She asked, confused at this turn of events.
“I don’t see what’s funny, though.” “Of course, there’s nothing funny.” Micheal said.
“But I can’t help but feel amused.
Your interest in me and the knowledge I hold is also amusing.
I want to…

take my time to savor it.” Alice felt goosebumps run down her entire body.
Was this guy a creep?
He sounded so normal and considerate the first time they met.
And then the second time, he helped her by talking down those crazy people in the council.
But that only showed how crazy and daring he was as a whole.
The second time showed his true colors even more.
And then now?
It was like, with each interaction, she got to see a different side of him.
An open, weird, and creepy side.
Just what was going around in this guy’s head?
She let go of her grip and he crouched forward, rubbing his neck and coughing.
“You’re a weirdo.” She said, causing him to pause and then smile.
His smile was fake, she could tell, even without seeing it.
It was this feeling she got from her perception.
He was smiling like he was being forced to.
If he didn’t smile, then he would surely have a deadly glare directed at her.
What?
Did he not like being called a weirdo?
But that was exactly what he was.
“Miss Alice,” he called.
“I’ll tell you about it but not today.” “Why not?
I want to hear about it now!” She demanded softly but then the gate broke.
“Haha, that’s why.” He pointed in the direction they had walked from.
“We can have this conversation later.” “What later?
I don’t even know when you’ll show up again.
You’re so sneaky, popping up where I least expect.” She pointed out and then he got closer in an instant.
She stared at his masked face.
The mask was white with no stain or design.
It was a mask that he used to hide a lot of things.
Micheal was…
A man of many secrets.
She presumed.
“Come on, what’s a smartphone for?” He asked, raising a phone and she noticed it was hers.
“How did you…?” She looked at her pocket.
It really was her phone.
How did he get it?
“Let’s not waste any more time.” He said, typing his number in.
“You can call me when you want to talk and I’ll come to you in the blink of an eye.” He tossed her phone back to her and then turned her around, making her quite uncomfortable.
Why did he feel so suspicious?
“Now, young hero of the world, you better get going and stop the monsters that have begun to rampage.
Or it may be too late.” He said like a whisper in her ear while she was saving his number and her eyes widened.
“Wait, what did you call me?” She asked, turning her head to him but he was gone.
“Ah, that sneaky fox.” She heard him calling her ‘hero of the world’.
Well, that term wasn’t so weird since she was going to save the world but why that of all things?
Like…
He was making it known that he knew she was the chosen one.
The one who would save the world.
(And have it, huhu) “Leo, that guy, do you remember anything about him from my past life?” She asked.
*Strangely, I don’t.* He said.
*And I believe I can recall all the big names you have come across.
His case is…
Strange.
It might be that he died during the first calamity but I just can’t get anything on him.* “So, he was mysterious then and also mysterious now.
Bravo.” She rolled her eyes and looked past her shoulder again.
There was this foreboding lingering around her shoulder.
Ah, it was just her uneasy feeling of having someone place their hands on her shoulders.
Or…
It could also be a warning.
She would have to be cautious around Micheal.
“Well, I’ll contact him next time I’m free.
At least, I’ll get a lead on the demon blood thing.” She said, ready to leap up and head for the gate break.
She could literally hear monsters roaring and causing chaos already.
Just what were they doing that they were letting the monsters roam so soon?
She hoped the monsters weren’t already getting the upper hand.
*Alice, you’ll have to put this operation before any other.* Leo said, referring to the devil’s shrine.
‘Why is that?’ *Well, the longer you delay, the more the demon blood gets circulated.
And when that happens, traces will be hard to find.
That side plot may just come to pass.* He explained, causing her to dart her eyes away.
Ah, another hassle.
“Fine, fine.
I got it.” She said.
“I’ll look into it Saturday.” *That’s two days from now.* Leo pointed out but she ignored him.
*Why so long?
You can get to it tomorrow.* “Might I remind you,” she stretched her arms, “Saturday is the day that most dirty and shady deals happen.
So, if I want to bust them up, I gotta do it Saturday.” She said, though that was definitely not what she had in mind when she said Saturday.
She just wanted to spend the whole of Friday on her bed.
*Hm, I guess that’s smart.
Alright.* Leo bought it and she stuck her tongue out.
So, even he could be dumb to her tricks.
Well, it was all for her good.
“Let’s get to it then.” She pushed her right leg back, bent down a bit, and mustered just enough strength that would send her flying towards the gate location.
And as she approached with the speed of the wind, her eyes widened, seeing the blue gate had suddenly become red and was releasing monsters that were just as dangerous as the red gate on the roof.
“What the…?
Did I miss something?” CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Author_fredah Yeah, you’re always missing something, Alice
