Chapter 259 Crowd Control Please!
"Hey you angel woman, are you dumb or something?" Alex muttered with irritation as he saw the panicked and stupefied expression on the angel"s face. "Come on, I thought you are very scary opponent! Yet, you only amount to something like this? Where"s the pride that you are showing of earlier?"
u003cu003cu003cHOW THE h.e.l.l CAN I ACT COMPOSED! YOU WIELD THE POWER OF THE FOUR SINS! THERE"S NO WAY THAT I CAN JUST BE CALM AFTER SEEING THAT!u003eu003eu003e The angel woman replied as her wings started to flap furiously again. u003cu003cu003cDO YOU THINK I CAN JUST ACT LIKE NOTHING IS WRONG HERE?u003eu003eu003e
"I think that you really are just a dumb angel." Alex said as he shook his head wryly. "And here I thought you will be interesting…"
After saying these words, the small figures behind Alex became 7, making the already surprised angel almost fall down from her current position.
All of Alex"s Abyss Sprites now appeared in full view, and the angel woman can only stare at them in shock as she started to back away.
u003cu003cu003cSE-SE-SEVEN SINS? NO GOOD! YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE FREAKS! THIS…. I MUST DO A TACTICAL RETREAT RIGHT NOW!u003eu003eu003e
"Boom!" After the angel woman uttered these words, she suddenly flew up into the sky, leaving Alex and his Sprites looking at her departing silhouette with confusion.
"Well, that happened."
*******************
5 MINUTES LATER
With the departure of the angel woman, Alina and Alex"s other allies were now freed of the effects of the Sword of Charity.
Right now, all of them were looking at Alex incredulously, which was understandable, since what happened between Alex and the angel woman was just astonis.h.i.+ng.
"Alex, what happened there was…."
"It was an effect of my current form." Alex replied quickly, as he opted to not elaborate everything now. "Alina, we can continue talking about this later. But for now, we need to prepare to fight."
"Ok…" Alina replied quietly as she seemed to have understood Alex"s point. She then went towards Queen Mother and Professor Frances, and started to have some kind of secret talk with them.
"…" Alex ignored the talks between these two girls as he brought his attention back to Lingo, who was still bowing in front of Alex right now.
"MILORD, WHAT YOU REALLY DID THEIR WAS SPLENDID. AS EXPECTED OF AN ABYSS SAGE! EVEN AN ADJUDICATOR IS NOTHING AGAINST YOU!"
"Nothing my a.s.s! I was lucky that I managed to scare that woman off!" Alex replied angrily as he gritted his teeth. "Even if I am somewhat immune to her abilities, she can just use her own physical power to kill me! I am lucky that she was too shocked to even think of that!"
"WELL MILORD, I CAN JUST s.h.i.+ELD YOU BY USING MY BODY…" Lingo replied quickly as he raised his head. "EVEN IF MY POWERS ARE STILL NOT RECOVERED NOW, I AM SURE THAT MY PHYSICAL BODY IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO RESIST HER STRIKES!"
"I can definitely see that." Alex muttered as he stared a Lingo"s ma.s.sive body. Alex"s face then changed as he remembered something.
"Hey… how long will it take you to recover a portion of your power?" Alex asked Lingo as he remembered the angel woman"s Celestial Abilities and Virtues. "If she had been freed earlier, then she had just to wait for a few minutes before she recovered a little portion of her power. If that was the case, then shouldn"t a portion of your power recover any moment now?"
"MASTER… JUST LIKE WHAT I TOLD YOU EARLIER, MAJORITY OF MY POWER HAD BEEN TAKEN AWAY ALREADY." Lingo replied as an irritated expression appeared on his face. "THE POWER THAT WAS LEFT WITH ME WAS ONLY AROUND 1% OF MY REAL POWER… AND FOR ME TO REACH 1%, I HAVE TO WAIT FOR 5 MORE MINUTES… THAT SAME CASE APPLIES TO THAT HOLY ORDER B**CH TOO."
"Wait, so the angel woman that we faced earlier only used 1% of her real power?"
"EXACTLY, MILORD."
"And if that angel woman manages to kill you, she will restore more portion of that power?"
"EXACTLY MILORD."
"Huh. So I really had a lucky break earlier."
"MILORD, PLEASE DO NOT THINK OF IT THAT WAY." Lingo hurriedly said as he seemed to be attempting to placate Alex. "MILORD, JUST THINK OF IT LIKE… "
"Like what?"
"I DO NOT ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT TO SAY MILORD."
"Sigh, in that case, just zip your mouth, okay?"
"AFFIRMATIVE MILORD."
"…."
After he had this "enlightening" talk with the blue prisoner, Alex slowly cupped his chin as he started to make a plan on what he should do today.
"Everyone!" Alex shouted to all of the Symbolists and his allies as he raised his voice. "I know that you are still rattled with what just happened earlier, but will you just let yourselves be affected by that?"
Alex immediately felt everyone"s eyes boring down on him, as if they were trying to bore holes through his body.
"I know that what you want to do now is to just lay down here and rest… But did you just forget the fact that those ***king Celestials just straight up rushed here? Don"t you find that insulting? DO you just want to let them off that easily?"
After Alex said these words, the eyes of the Symbolists began to glow red in anger, as if they could feel his feelings.
When Alex saw this, he suppressed a smile as he discreetly activated his Emotion Manipulation.
He took hold of all the indignation and anger that the Symbolists are feeling right now, and he decided to increase these emotions greatly!
Because of the fight that they just had, and the after-effects of Sword of Charity, the Symbolists were unable to resist Alex"s emotion manipulation.
As a result of this, a crowd of extremely p.i.s.sed Symbolists appeared in front of Alex, with all of them wearing murderous expressions on their faces.
"Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds dare look down on us? Well, it is our time now for revenge! Join me everyone! We shall make them all pay!" Alex said as he raised his hands in the air. "Are you all willing to join me?"
"h.e.l.l yes!" All the Symbolists shouted as their faces turned red. They then all raised their hands high in the air as they started marching towards Alex.
"Good, good, good!" Alex shouted back happily as he began to feel happy with what he was seeing. He then started to run towards Lingo"s direction. "Yes, this is how it should be done! OK everyone! Follow me now! We shall go and empty the armory! Glory to the Blue Moon!"
"Glory to the Blue Moon!" All of the Symbolists replied as they chased after Alex. The blue sand all around them started to scatter as a result of their movements, creating a miniature dust storm that everyone just ignored.
"…" While Alex and the Symbolists were all busy on starting a "war", there were 4 women who were looking at what was happening with incredulous expressions on their faces.
Alina, Queen Mother. Professor Frances, and Astria could only stare at the roused army as they watched their fervent movements.
"...Heh, what a great way to rile up the crowd. So Alex actually has a talent for leading people? I never knew that he could do this…" Professor Frances muttered as she tilted her head. "Hmm… what more secrets could Alex be hiding from us? I hope nothing of that will be of great danger to us…"
"…"
