“Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. ocean eyes. But, you can only sit next to her in class.” Adam turned around and smirked at him with disdain in his eyes.
Wraith narrowed his eyes but before he could speak, Adam continued.
“Besides, your fans are waiting for you. Look! They can’t bear to see you here.”
At this moment, Ely turned around and asked “Don’t you find my eyes disgusting? Why do you want to sit next to me?”
“Disgusting? Come on, there has to be a limit to how much you can say.” Adam rolled his eyes at Wraith and spoke with disdain.
Wraith opened his mouth but he couldn’t refuse. Suddenly, a plate landed on the table and someone caught both of them by their collars.
“If you think her eyes are annoying and disgusting, then go and see your own eyes in the mirror.”
When Ely heard this voice, her eyes widened. She turned around and her mouth opened wide.
“Lily!”
Lily pulled them away from the table and sat next to Ely. She smiled and asked.
“Why didn’t you tell me that you have already joined the academy?”
“I didn’t get a chance yesterday.” Ely bites her lips and lowered her head.
Lily giggled and patted her head.
“I know. You punched him in the face yesterday.” Saying so, she stopped smiling and looked at Adam.
“Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? You are the son of Gabriel, the first superhero of mankind and you are wasting your time bullying someone, and a girl on top of that.”
Adam lowered his head with shame and Lily turned her head at Wraith.
“And you, just because you are cute and a boy, don’t think that you can get away with this. If you call her eyes disgusting once again, I will tie you with ropes and spank you.”
At this moment, Lily’s face turned red with weird imagination coming on her head.
“Lily, what happened? Your face is all red.” Ely looked at her with confusion and asked.
‘Isn’t that the same face that she makes him when her father does something to her?’
Her eyes widened. She immediately caught lily’s shoulder and said “Lily, you can’t like this guy. He is a jerk, a total jerk.”
“Hey, I am right here.” Wraith felt annoyed when she called him a jerk.
“What are talking about? I am just feeling hot. That’s all.” Lily felt ashamed of her thoughts and immediately calmed down. She was even more annoyed when Ely said she liked him.
Well, he was handsome but nothing more than that. She didn’t even know him properly.
“Well, what are you doing here? If you can’t watch her eyes, go away!” Lily looked at them and tried to chase them away but to her surprise. Both of them walked in front of them and sat.
“My legs are tired. I need to eat something before I walk.” Adam lazily sighed and started eating his food.
As for Wraith, he didn’t say anything. He just lowered his head and continued eating. Ely and Lilly dumbfoundedly stared at them and silently eat their food.
On other hand, the break was over before they could finish it. It seemed like they wasted too much time arguing than eating food. So, they hurriedly ended the food and then rushed back to the class.
But unfortunately, they were late. The cafeteria had a strict rule that you need to wash the dishes before you leave. So, they spent so much time eating the last bites and washing the dishes, they didn’t reach class before the teacher entered.
And, they were punished to stand outside the class for the entire class. It was quite a hard punishment for the students who were only two minutes late. But, considering how seriously they take the rules, it wasn’t much of a surprise.
And now, Ely had to stand between them outside for forty minutes. And, it got even more boring for her when they didn’t even speak a word. At this moment, she even wished they would’ve teased her for her eyes.
Unfortunately, none of that happened.
…….
In the mansion,
“Good Afternoon, how was your sleep?” Charlotte turned her head at Brian who had just come out of the bedroom while yawning and asked. After understanding his situation, she didn’t find it difficult to adjust.
“It was good. I restored some strength to do something tasks.” Brian nodded his head and went near the sink and washed his face.
?(O)??? “Ahem! So, are you going to fill me up on about the boy?” Charlotte asked. She was really curious about this whole situation.
It happened so fast that she didn’t know how to react.
Brian wiped away the water with a towel and sat on a sofa, next to her. He rested his neck and looking at the ceiling, he spoke.
“It’s nothing. We just got caught in the middle of two big forces. We can’t fight them so we have no choice but to stay quiet.”
“No! That’s not what I mean. I want to more about this world. You seem to know a lot and we haven’t got time to talk much. Now, we have a little time. You are not going to do anything. So, tell me more about this world.” Charlotte spoke.
She moved next to him and wrapped her arms around him, acting a bit spoiled. Brian sighed and rubbed her head as he spoke.
“Alright then, let’s start with the beginning. I also have a lot of things that I wanted to share with you. Now seems like a perfect time. Anyway, around thirteen years ago, when I was twelve, I wrote a theory.”
“I told you before that I can talk to the technologies, right? Well, when I was twelve, I discovered a small chip that was actually a quantum computer. I still don’t know how it ended up there but now, I feel like it is related to my parents.”
“Anyway, after I got that chip, I learned more about Quantum Physics and Quantum World. I found a way to create a device that can navigate us inside the Quantum World. From there, I learned that time travel is actually possible.”
“So, I started working on a new project. But, the problem was funding. I had no intention to let my parents know about this even though they eventually find out. So, I had to find a way to fund my projects.”
“During this time, I found a black market. It wasn’t the black market on earth but rather a black market of the universe. I studied how it works and started finding materials that could help me achieve time travel.”
“As for how this works, it’s quite simple. You create virtual assistance of yourself that can enter a platform of a virtual reality created at the center of our galaxy. Only the planets with the technology strong enough can enter this platform.”
“So, when I was dealing with the black market, I managed to learn a lot about this universe. But, of course, the main thing that I learned was Chaos Online. My New Gods is actually based on Chaos Online.”
“And, the reason I left everything just to focus on getting stronger was also to enter this game. But, only one person from a planet can enter this game. That person will also determine the fate of that planet.”
“In fact, the amount of Zero-Point Energy and the bloodline of humans or other races in our planets can be improved by entering this game and leveling up.”
“Of course, at that time, I was only focused on time travel. So, I ignored everything else and focused on creating the time travel suit. I got the funding after I sold my unique algorithm and technology on the black market. And, I completed my time travel suit. But, when I created that, I got discovered by a special corps that keeps the timelines in check.”
“I thought they would imprison me or even kill me but strangely enough, they only warned me not to use the time travel and let me go. After that, I stopped the project, ripped up the final pages of my theory, and decided to keep it as an incomplete theory.”
“I thought nobody would find out but my parents did. They somehow find out what I did and forced me to make a promise that I will never create or use the technology that would hurt others.”
“That’s why even though I was in a rage after my parents died, I only created the bomb that will alter their genes. I still wanted to keep my promise but it seems like I can’t keep it for long.”
“My ability to communicate with technologies has improved. Now, I want to find out something. I want to find out how I am. Why do I have these powers? Why I am so ahead of the rest of the humans on the earth?”
Saying so, Brian looked at her and said “It’s going to be an exhausting journey.”
Hearing his words, Charlotte shook her head and put it on his shoulder.
“I don’t mind going through anything with you.”
At this moment, Brian suddenly got down from the sofa and got on one knee. He put his hand in his pocket and took out something. He raised his head and looked into her eyes.
“Charlotte, my life won’t be anything ordinary. I might not get time for you and Ely but I promise, I will do everything to be a good father and a good husband.”
“So, will you marry me?”
At this moment, he was holding a silver ring between his finger. When Charlotte saw that, her eyes widened and the tears fell down her cheeks. She couldn’t smile or cry. She was stuck.
But, her body instantly moved as she embraced and said.
“I will. I will marry you and become your bride.”
