Chapter 124: Always Trust Your Gut!
Looking at the figure in front, although a bit different, Elric could easily tell it was Alvin.
However judging from his current state, it seemed like it wouldn"t be too long before Alvin became the next Ristarte
"How are you Alvin, it"s been a while!"
Shifting his sight away from the demonised half of his body, Elric once again called out to Alvin.
Luckily, it looked like Avin had come to his senses as this time he actually responded
Unfortunately, what Elric got next wasn"t a friendly h.e.l.lo, rather it was a bombardment of questions
? "Young master! Is that really you?"
"Where are you?"
"Where am I ?"
"What are we doing here?"
"How did we get here?"
Realising that it was actually Elric in front of him, Alvin didn"t hold back and started shooting all the questions that came to mind
Luckily, with the help of the A.I. chip, Elric was able to note down each of his questions ready to give him an answer later.
Soon time had pa.s.sed, and Alvin"s flurry of questions had gradually come to an end.
"Young master, I thought you said I should go as far away as possible, why are we back together?"
"And what is all this exactly?"
Pointing to the vast land around him, Alvin asked his final questions as he had gradually calmed down.
Seeing this, Elric knew it was his turn to speak.
"Haha, if fact all this can be explained. However it"s a very long story"
Giving a light laugh, Elric scratched his head awkwardly
*How do I tell him that I got buried alive and woke up with a brand new world inside me without sounding crazy?*
*Argggh forget it, I"ll think up something later*
With this in mind, Elric decided to answer Alvin"s questions later after all, he himself currently had some questions to ask Alvin
Making up his mind Elric quickly changed the topic before Alvin reacted.
"By the way Alvin, how did this happen?"
Pointing to his half-demon body, Elric"s asked with a hint of curiosity on his face
Back then, according to his and Alvin"s speculation, it would take at least years before something like this happened
And judging from the condition of his body, Elric didn"t believe he had been buried for years, so obviously something went wrong somewhere
And sure enough, something did go wrong, because after hearing Elric"s question, Alvin"s face, which was still a bit confused, suddenly became gloomy.
With a look of blazing hatred and unwillingness in his eyes, it was obvious that he had been through a lot
Soon time pa.s.sed, and after a bit of struggle Alvin finally sighed as if he had made a hard decision
"Sigh… since it"s the young master that, I"ll tell you"
Sensing the curiosity emitting from Elric, Alvin knew that Elric wouldn"t let him rest unless he answered the question
So although unwilling to recall the past, Alvin had no choice but to recount his adventures to Elric one by one.
"Amazing!"
"I can"t believe it"s almost been a year already!"
Hearing Alvin"s story, Elric on the side couldn"t help but shout out in surprise
One whole year!
Elric couldn"t believe he was dead for almost a year now.
Thankfully he woke up now, if not his body might have ended up completely rotten
Thinking of this, Elric couldn"t help but shiver
*Oh? What happened to Elric, could it be that he feels bad for what I experienced!?*
Seeing Elric suddenly change in mood, Alvin on the side began to think Elric was worried about him, little did he know that Elric wasn"t even paying much attention to him at the moment
Taking a deep breath, Elric finally calmed himself down as he accepted the fact that a year had gone by
*d.a.m.n! I can"t believe I"ve been buried for a year!"
"So many plans have gone begin schedule, and who knows Latet might end up finding this place much less the G.o.d of light who"s hot on our trail"
Thinking of this, Elric realised his time was running out
Luckily, Alvin was currently beside him, hopefully Alvin could return to Hogwarts and find out where he was buried
With this in mind, Elric"s eyes shined with a strange light as he couldn"t wait to send Alvin to help him dig u his corpse
"Um young master, why are you looking at me so weirdly?"
Feeling Elric"s gaze, Alvin couldn"t help but step back with a bit of hesitation in his tone.
Seeing this, Elric knew that he had lost his image. .(c)om
*Ahem!*
Giving a light cough, Elric quickly tried to change the mood to avoid embarra.s.sment
"Alvin, I need you to do something for me!"
Changing the topic, Elric began to explain how he died and suddenly came back to life, and how it was up to him to overturn his grave.
Unfortunately, after Elric finished explaining everything, Alvin didn"t speak, rather he just looked at him with an "are you sure you"re okay?" kind of look.
Seeing this, Elric couldn"t help but grit his teeth angrily
"d.a.m.n! What are you looking at me like that for, you must know my body hasn"t eaten for almost a year"
"It"s a miracle it"s even still working"
Gritting his teeth Elric suddenly felt like smashing Alvin"s eyes to which Alvin just replied to him with a smile
"Haha young master relax, I thought you were just making it up so I wouldn"t feel bad about my whole demonization process"
"However if you"re serious, I can head back to Hogwarts and unbury you"
Saying this Alvin chuckled a bit as he found Elric"s situation to be much funnier than his
Luckily, Elric didn"t seem to notice his laugh, but after hearing him agree could wait to send him off
"Alright Avin, if you ready you can start going"
Saying this, Elric began urging him to leave.
Although he didn"t know why, ever since Elric woke up, a feeling at the back of his head keeps telling him to urgently check the situation back in Hogwarts.
And as someone who always trusted his guts, Elric decided to check what was going on as soon as possible.
