Chapter 72: (Devil?)
Everyone heard someone's voice, while Eva cried when she heard the Voice
"Alex!!." Eva said and jump on Alex who was in front of her then hug him
"Okay-Okay, I'm right here." Alex said while comforting Eva by patting her head
"Sniff...sob...I'm scared...sob...I was really scared, I-I...sob...I thought I would-." Eva said while crying
"You don't have to say anything anymore, I'm here okay, I'm here, I'm just by your side, you don't need to be afraid anymore." Alex said, he felt that he wronged her because when everything started he had already arrive but just watch them talking because he wanted to see Eva's side when she was talking with her coworkers, until Charles suddenly was out of his mind but sill he didn't stop it until Eva shouted his name although he was already prepared to intervene when Charles will attack Eva or anyone.
He just watched before because he was looking at Charles dark aura because he felt something familiar from it, he was analyzing what it was before getting snap out thinking about it because Eva shouted.
"YOU, YOU, YOU ITS YOU!!!." Charles shouted, and his dark aura suddenly exploded that cause the pressure around him to vanish
"What me?." Alex said he was a bit surprised that he could handle the pressure, even though he didn't use any skills like King's aura and gravity, but it was still an aura of an immortal/preparation rank so he only got a bit surprised, what interested him the most is the sudden explosion of the dark aura because it really felt familiar to him, as he feel the dark aura first hand he was surprised because he could absorb it as his cultivation and breakthrough a small realm, from the unknown cultivation he is using
"IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU, I WILL KILL YOU, KILL, KILL, KILL." Charles jumped on Alex while his hands suddenly sharpened and aims it at Alex
"PROSTRATE." Alex voice turned majestic and his eyes turned golden, he used his King's aura
Charles felt an even more unimaginable pressure than before and the aura that he witnessed made him want to submit in reverance, he couldn't help himself and slowly got on the ground
"AH! WHY HOW?, HOW?, HOW?, I DON'T ACCEPT THIS!!, I DON'T, I DON'T." Charles shouted while laying his body flat on the ground and his face was facing downward
"Heh!, your just someone who got possessed because your weak." Alex said, it was true because of this Charles really did get possessed by someone or more like influence by someone to act on his desire, because of his sudden shock hearing that Eva finally have a boyfriend, his mind flew into rage and quickly his mind turned weak because of this, taking advantage of that someone suddenly influenced him because his mind was currently weak so he was really vulnerable, "That" someone gave him power to act what he desires, that lead to the situation when he said all the thing that was in his mind.
"Heh! measly you are so arrogant because of this measly power?." Alex asked and stretched out his right while the other one was still patting Eva
"Let me take it then." Alex said and touch the dark aura in the air and absorb it, to his cultivation
"No-no!, don't my power, my power is fading, don't take my power." Charles begged on the ground feeling his power slowly fading
"Heh! you are already happy with this temporary power? Trash! you don't deserve to pursue Eva." Alex scoffed at him
When all of the dark aura finally got absorb, Charles fell unconscious on the ground, he was already unconscious from the start but the dark power supported him and wake his desires in his mind.
The people watch through all that was happened and was still shocked at how fast the way it hands, at first they thought that Eva will die but suddenly someone arrive and pressured Charles and also make him prostrate, they couldn't process it to their memory that fast, but one thing they knew is that they were safe now, and the one who save them was the cause of this all Eva's boyfriend
'I have been promoted 3 small realm huh?. from 1st step Evil Infant to 4th step Evil infant, it seems absorbing dark aura is also one of the things for me to increase my cultivation.' Alex thought he got a bit of power up this time, he also know something about the "someone" who take advantage and influence Charles
"A Devil huh?" Alex mumbled in his breath
"What?, what is it?, did you say something?." Eva said she wasn't crying anymore and finally calmed down
"No it was nothing." Alex said with a smile
"I really heard you say something, out with it now." Eva said, this woman or maybe girl? was really acting spoiled again even though she just cried
"Sigh*, your coworkers are watching us you know." Alex said and looks at the other that was staring at them
"I-I-." Eva lowered her head and stick it closely to his chest, her face turned she doesn't want anyone to see her face like this
"You finally calmed down now, I'm here to pick you up, let's go home." Alex said
"Mhn, let's go home, I'm a bit tired." Eva agreed
"Hello, I'm Alex and I'm her boyfriend, thank you for always taking care of her." Alex said politely to the others
"No-no likewise, Eva is really helpful to us." The manager said
"Yes Eva is always kind to us, and also thank you for saving us." The others said
"Please take care of her," Cherry said
"Yes, I will treat her well." Alex said
"We will be on my way now," Alex said
"Yes, thank you again for saving us, bye." Cherry said
"Eva don't you want to say goodbye?." Alex asked
Eva didn't say anything because she was embarrassed because, she knew that when She came back to work tomorrow, the others will ask her a barrage of questions, since they sees Alex's handsome and young face, even though Eva is a decade older than Alex, she was still beautiful that you will mistake her as only a few older than Alex.
"It seems she is still embarrassed, I'm sorry." Alex scratched his head
"No, it's fine, we can still meet tomorrow, right Eva." Cherry said with a mischievous tone
"Then we will be going now, Everyone." Alex said and quickly blinked with Eva
'It seems Eva's boyfriend is really strong.' All of them had the same thoughts
