Chapter 51: CHAPTER 51 – Stats are Stats.

As Alex had decided, he told both Alice and Ann about Argon's stats.

"Well, since you want to know, his stats are like this: -

Strength: SS; Agility: SS-; Stamina: SS-; Wisdom: S+; Energy/Mana: S+;

Which makes him an SS rank Raider."

Alex nonchalantly stated Argon's stats, Alice and Ann, however, were far from being relaxed like Alex, instead, they were shocked by the revelation.

Even though they had guessed that Argon might have a stat reaching SS, they were still hoping in some corner of their mind that he was just a very strong S-rank Raider and not someone with even a single SS-ranked stat.

But how could they have known that not only did he have an SS-ranked stat, but he actually had three of them reaching SS rank?

Alex found it really weird for them to be surprised by Argon's stats when he, himself was with them, but then he remembered that he never told them his own stats.

He just sighed as he thought about the reaction they would have if they knew his stats.

"What are you guys so surprised about?" Alex asked while tilting his head to the side.

"What?" Alice looked at Alex with an incredulous. She couldn't believe that Alex was actually asking this question. It was not only her, even Ann had an expression mirroring Alice's.

"I said, what are you guys so surprised about?" Alex asked again with the same expression which caused Alice and Ann to exchange a confused look.

They didn't know if Alex was really that unperturbed or if he was just putting up an act.

"You said that Argon's three stats were SS-ranked, right?" Ann asked as she gestured for Alice to let her talk, to which Alice nodded her head.

"And?" Alex asked, still maintaining the expression he had.

"Doesn't that make him much stronger than any S-rank Raider out there?" Ann asked again and Alice now felt that Alex was just pretending not to know anything.

"Why do you think so?" Alex asked as he looked at both Ann and Alice one by one.

You can use tactics to bind your enemy in them or make use of your surroundings to defeat your enemy."

Alex's sentence finally cleared their doubts and Alice's eyes lit up after she realised the meaning.

"So, that means I can defeat Argon Hart?" She was a bit too excited just thinking about that possibility.

"No." But Alex's reply made all of her excitement go puff in a second.

"No, not as you are right now. But in the future, yes." Alex wasn't done so he continued causing both Ann and Alice to look at him with determination and hope in their eyes.

Ann was also a bit deflated after she heard Alex outright denying Alice which meant Ann herself was hopeless as she was weaker than Alice. But when Alex continued, she knew what she had to do, and she was fully committed to doing it.

(She is thinking about being a good student, nothing else.)

"Now don't look at me with those eyes, I did say I would be teaching you guys and I don't want my students to be defeated just by anyone," Alex spoke with a light smile, but Alice and Ann knew he was not joking.

Ann just nodded her head seriously, but while Alice also nodded her head, she had many things going on in her head.

Ann might not have understood the meaning behind Alex's words but Alice who knew that there were other worlds and power ranks above EX rank knew the meaning behind Alex's words.

For Ann the word 'anyone' that Alex said might have meant some random Raider, but Alice knew that Alex was referring to Argon the strongest Raider in the world as anyone.

She just sighed inwardly as Alex became more enigmatic in her mind.
