Bab 89: Chapter 89
Green light shot towards her but right before it struck her, one of the ropes had blocked its trajectory, getting hit instead of her. This single moment was enough for Alex to capture her as she was too shocked to do anything of importance for a fraction of a second.
Alex didn't even look at her and turned towards Percy, "Hey, the sin of lust… It's impossible to kill it if I'm not wrong."
Smiling awkwardly, Percy replied, "It's not impossible but you will have to cut your genitals off."
Alex got a weird feeling that he did not like and that was enough for him to know about the future. He glanced at Isis and then at Percy before speaking.
"Looks like I'll be consuming Lust in the future and Isis should be a by-product of that. That's the future that has the highest probability. I also have a few questions that I hope you will answer."
Percy nodded. He couldn't say no as the way Alex said it was more of a command than a request. He shrugged like it didn't really matter before looking at Isis.
She tried to struggle but she couldn't move an inch. Her wand was broken into pieces and Alex looked at her like she was a joke.
The ropes brought her closer to Alex before letting her go except for her limbs, which were still tightly held. She still couldn't do much other than headbutt him or speak.
Percy squinted his eyes which turned sky blue for a second before going back to normal, "Hey… that's not your real face, is it?"
Alex looked surprised for a moment but a second later, he looked at her like he understood what he meant. Percy knew that Alex understood things he didn't understand but decided to wait patiently for him to explain when everything was done.
Isis chuckled, "Yes. This is some random woman's face. I still have her body stored and I can sho-"
Before she could complete her sentence, one of her hands was released and Alex observed her intently, waiting for her to show him something cool like she was his pet.
Feeling a shiver down her spine, she took out a ring from her robes, and from that ring, emerged a rotten body. The body fell on the ground and as soon as that happened, Isis's hand was again held tight.
Alex observed the body which was partially rotten but her face was nowhere to be seen.
"Hmm… this is alchemy and this is something only I should be knowing. This makes a few things clear." He said, nodding to himself as he snatched the ring out of her hands.
A number of books, metals, magical objects, potion ingredients and a lot more miscellaneous things piled up on the floor.
"These books… looks like it really is inevitable. Oh, look what we have here…." He said as he picked up a thin book with the title [The Best Method to Control Minds].
He opened the book but the moment he did, the book burned away and it didn't even take a second for it to turn into ashes. What surprised him the most was that the flames didn't burn his hand.
"Interesting… it will be better to confirm though…" he muttered as he looked at Isis.
"Who gave you these books?"
Isis felt rage build up within her when he heard him ask that question like it was something he expected to happen. She wanted to scream but she calmed herself.
"Yes… You gave it to Mom, telling her to give it to me. "A last gift from your father," she said, that dumb bitch. Thui." She spit at Alex but the saliva didn't even reach him as it was redirected by a short gust of wind, from a small wave of his wand.
"This really is a message from the future me… but there's something more I need to know… show me your real face, Isis."
Isis smirked when she heard that, "Hah? Take it off yourself if you're so curious. I don't care anymore."
Alex did as he was told and gently pressed the tip of his wand on her forehead for a few seconds and her face began to melt like hot wax, revealing a skinny face that had no nose and was missing an eyeball, which was replaced by a bluish glow in the empty eye socket.
"Looks like my assumptions were wrong. This face… is this the product of the mind control thing?"
The blue glow in her eye flickered and Alex understood what it meant, "I guess I was right after all… You really are an idiot.
You read the books given by me, which gave you everything you need to go back to the past, trick me, and then probably also instructed you to attack me when the time is in a stasis.
But looks like this is not just about you and me, now that I realize."
He turned to look at Percy who stood like he had done nothing wrong, "Wh- what happened? I didn't understand half of the things you've spoken about right now."
"Oh, it's nothing. I just realized that listening to a person who could've potentially been sent by those angels, or devils as you called them, and then planning to consume or kill those devils by listening to you is a foolish thing to do if I consider the possibility of you lying.
Also, if I think about the blood pact, you only mentioned not harming but never talked about killing without inflicting pain or indirect harming methods. This brings out the possibility of you having a method of killing people without inflicting pain but I feel like you don't have one.
If you did, you could've threatened me with that right after we did the blood pact but you went out of your way to give me such valuable information that I could never get even if I read all the books I could find. This increases the chances of you trying to kill me through indirect means and what's the better option compared to using the devils to kill me."
