'i can't believe that she told me to kill Aruseil like i'm not even that strong, maybe when im stronger then sure' alex thought , leo and a few doctors came rushing in
After a few minutes of testing leo asked "are you feeling any better?" Alex looked at Leo then Gave him a dumbfounded look
"do i look ok to you?" Alex said, his voice was sarcastic, but Leo got what it meant.
"so your hair..." Leo said his voice had a tang of confusion
"it was a wig Bargi knew about it "
"did he also know about the eyes?"
"no, he didn't know about that , is there a reason why i have contact lens on iis unknown to me "Alex said his voice was calm as if he were talking to a cop that was interrogating him.
"..how are we gonna explain this?" Leo asked
"we can use the accident as a cover up" An unknown voice said, it was familiar voice, it was Bargi in the flesh he was quite tell with black hair and ruby red eyes his skin was of a pale white he was quite handsome.
"Bargi?...what are you doing here?" Alex and leo asked
"i'm here because i'm your boss and i can't have you dead just yet"Bargi said his voice was very deep just listening to it would make you wanna sleep
'what does he mean by yet?' Alex thought Leo looked at Bargi then said "how are we gonna use the accident as a cover-up?"
"it's very easy.. just say that through your experience in that world you interacted with something that changed the way you look and you can change back to the way you were .. What do you think about that?" bargi asked, he looked quite proud of himself Alex and Leo nodded, Leo added "how is this gonna be believable?"
"in the spirit world there are creatures that exist, when your spiritual body interacts with them they can rewrite your entire extences , so this happening to him is quite natural " Bargi said
"won't people question why that didn't happen to me?" Leo said
"no they won't because these types of things happens when a person has yet to gain their ether code so the spirit creatures tries to rewrite its extences unto that person" Bargi said he grabbed a chair from one of the coroner then sat down
"...now the true reason i am here is to give you two some training" bragi said his voice grew calm and collected as if he had been waiting for this moment.
"training?.. but i've yet to unlock my-" before Alex could finish he was stopped by bargi he added "you don't need to have an ether code to train all you need is some hand to hand combat" Bargi said, then he continued "...you guys have gone through alot in that world so after every training sessions you guys have to got to a specialist she will help you sort past the turma you have, the way she does it is up to her ...the training starts tomorrow " bargi got up out of his seat then added "don't worry now that your body is in good condition your body will be healed by on of our clarics " Bargi smiled at the two but before he left someone came up to him then added "how much times have i told you not to call me a cleric"
'that voice is it..' before Alex could finish his thought a tan skin color girl with rosy cheeks with lips that were full with black curly hair with a hourglass frame
'is that really Aaliyah she looks different'
"Aaliyah ... what did you do to your body?" Leo asked, Aaliyah seemed pissed at first then added
"during the time you two were passed out i worked on myself alot" she said, Leo still wasn't sure if she was telling the truth
"see this is why she left you dumbass"Aaliyah shooted
'huh...' alex thought 'what the hell is going on'
Aaliyah lunged forward to punch Leo, but Bargi caught her fist mid-air and looked into her eyes. They were filled with nothing but emptiness. Aaliyah stopped trying to pull away. "dont we are in a hospital be respectful" bargi let go of her hand then he left after that Aaliyah fell to the floor sweat covered her entire face
"what the hell just happened?" Alex said while he looked at Aaliyah she was still on the floor then Leo added
"that's what happens when you anger that man, he is very powerful to be honest i think if he were to use his full power he could kill a dragon if he wanted" leo added Aaliyah managed to get up off the floor then wiped off the sweat off here face, Alex grabbed a towel then gave it to Aaliyah
"here.." Alex handed the towel to Aaliyah she grabbed the towel straight out of his hands then added
"next time be more careful of the places you go" Aaliyah said leo added
Leo, trying to lighten the mood, asked Aaliyah in a sarcastic tone, "Does the princess of ice care about poor old me?"
Aaliyah didn't miss a beat, "I could give zero shits about you. I'm only saying that because I don't want your damn spot working with that guy. He creeps me out. Also, Alex, I think your ether core might have awakened, but you should use it tomorrow just to be safe. And thanks for the towel." With that, she threw the sweat-filled towel back at Alex, who quickly recoiled in disgust.
she left the room Ale looked to Leo then asked "who was that creepy guy she was talking about ?"
leo replied quickly " oh she is talking about craig he's an ok guy but he can be weird at times"
"like how weird?" Alex asked the question hung in the air for a solid minute then leo replied "it's better that you meet him to see the weirdness in the flesh"
....
the next day
alex was all healed up leo was at the company doing god knows what 'it looks like he did the training earlier than me' Alex walked in an empty park it was connected to the company suddenly the air around him changed like they were a pair of eyes looking onto him Alex whispered under his breath the location of the enemy' he repeated this seven times but the reply was that the enemy was every he tried to use the spirit sense but the enemy is everywhere so he could have ended up blinding himself
"Zurna cross!" the winds howled they swept against the floor they create a large slash mark Alex managed to dodge it he had on his glove and his saber, part of his clothes was ripped he was wearing a leather armour with regular pants and a pair of beat shoes these were the clothes he was given to train in
a large pile of stones launched at Alex he activates his glove then unsheathed his saber then he gripped it with both hands, time itself seemed to have slowed around Alex , this was the power of a mystical creatures core it could slow down time for a short period during this period Alex used the glove to increase his speed, time moved again Alex parried all of the stones but one of them slapped him across the face the small pibble had a lot of force behind it
A man wearing a top hat with a large coak his clothes was covered by the coat Alex could not quite see the face well but he stood there then added "From the abyss I rise, born of darkness and chaos, hungering for the souls of the living. My roar echoes through the ages, foretelling your doom. Tremble in fear, for I am the embodiment of your nightmares, the harbinger of your demise." the man in the top hat smiled then in an instant a pair of large swords appeared they went for Alex neck he was shocked in fear he couldn't move also he could overuse the mythical core or else it would blow up and his arm would be gone
the attacks stopped then the voice said " today for your training if you damage me within two months then let you free to the company , leo will be joining with us soon " the man said his face was hidden by his hat
"what the hell is this guy?"
