Alex was not sure if the queasy feeling that he is having right now is due to his fear of getting discovered by Alina, or just plain nervousness from going out with a girl. "What a wimp." Asteria scoffed as she saw Alex’s nervous look. "You will just go outside and roam! How could you look that scared?" "Shut it pixie." Alex muttered as he fixed his shirt. "I bet you have zero experience on things like this too." "Wha-what do you think you are saying!" Asteria stuttered as she retracted her…-

Alex was not enthused with his current situation. After all, he had to talk with Alina, who was the first person that tried to kill him. Alex kept his composure in check as he hid his fear. After all, there are some people that can smell fear, and Alex is not willing to let them sniff it out. "Just talk to her normally, and everything will be fine." Alex muttered to himself as he asked Clint something. "Your friend... is she always wearing a mask?" Clint gave Alex a nod as he said, "Ever…

Both of Alex’s mind and body were tired and weary, with him feeling extremely sleepy and lethargic. Alex could not help but wince as he imagined all the pain that he will feel tomorrow. "S**t, I just told Clint to increase the pace of the training tomorrow..." Alex thought sourly as he let out a despairing sigh. "It really sucks..." But even if Alex felt that the whole training that he had was painful and tiring, he discovered that his Mental Power and control had actually improved. His…

"Umm... is this a common occurrence?" Alex asked Clint as the announcement of the robotic voice went on. "Well, if it is a weak Intruder, killing them will be just a piece of cake for the Espers, but for something like a Class-S Intruder, lockdowns are really necessary." Clint said as he made a move in his board game. "Hahaha! Wifey, let’s see if you can still win now!" "...." Alex fell into a silence as he remembered what Clint told to him about the relationship between the Espers and the…

Midnight. Alex had already finished cleaning up the attic, turning it into something habitable for him. But instead of sleeping, Alex opted to leave the attic first, as he felt the desire to talk to someone. The floorboards creaked as Alex treaded the living room. He made sure that he was quiet, so that none of the sleeping residents will wake up. "Still can’t sleep too?" Alex looked behind him, and there he found the person that he was looking for. Clint was currently lounging on the…

For someone like Clint who was supposedly a leader of a gang, his house actually looked quite decent. Even if it was located in the slums, Alex could see that it was made up of materials sturdier compared to the materials used to make the other houses. Even the way that the house was built was carefully planned, with each of its structures seemingly on their perfect position. "Whoever made this house deserves to get a good pay." Alex said as he and Clint arrived in front of his house. "Daddy!"…

Clint continued to talk to Alex as he answered all of Alex’s question, especially the questions related to the Espers. According to Clint, the power of the Espers were ranked based on the amount of their Range and their Mental Power. Once an Esper’s Range was around 1 meter in radius, they will be considered to be a Tier 1 Esper. Subsequent increase of the Range by 1 meter will increase the number of tiers by 1. That means that an Esper with a Range of meters will be declared as a Tier 10…

Alex gave Asteria another suspecting look as Clint left the room to explain his case to the angry newcomer. "Asteria, maybe its just me, but isn’t this a little convenient?" Alex said as he looked at the exposed wire nearby him. "I just randomly thought of using your Fairy Dust, and then the face that I got is actually Clint’s friend. What’s more suspicious was the fact that this new face of mine led me here at this place and allowed me to awaken my Esper Ability without any need to expose…

The first sight that Alex saw when he came out of the tunnel were countless metallic buildings. Wherever Alex put his sight on, he could only see tall spires of metallic constructs. All of these structures were standing together, producing a city that seemed to have been born from metal. The next feature that he saw were the vehicles. Unlike the vehicles that Alex knew, the vehicles that whizzed by right in front of him were all hovering by around 6-12 inches from the ground. The structures…

As Alex approached the city, he saw that it was unlike what he had envisioned. Instead of a sprawling metropolis made up of large buildings, what Alex could only see was a large, metallic dome. This dome covered an area of approximately 10 kilometers, which just show its massive volume. The metal of the dome was glinting brightly against the sun, creating a dazzling sight which almost blinded Alex. "This..." Alex was at a loss for words as he was not sure on how to describe the scenery in front…
