Chapter 105: Reignited Hope and Amelia's Suspicion



"Do you feel any change in your body right now?"

Amelia asked as her face turned back to fully serious mode, with her clipboard and pen in hand.

"Um, I can feel my mana much more energetic than before... And my body, too." Alex replied.

"What do you mean by your mana being energetic?" Amelia asked, looking a little intrigued.

"Is there a place I can throw some spells?"

"Follow me."

As Amelia headed over to the door and opened it, Alex was a little surprised to see a light barrier in the dark sky.

But then he quickly realized he was still in school, albeit just in the middle of nowhere.

"Okay, you can throw whatever spell you want toward this golem."

With a small chant, a spell suddenly appeared in the air before a rock golem was summoned before them.

Alex didn't hesitate a single bit as he started casting fireballs nonstop at the golem.

From one to two, all the way to fifty, he didn't slow down a single bit as if he had endless mana.

"That's definitely not a level 2 mage mana regeneration..." Amelia thought as she noted it in the paper.

After throwing almost one hundred fireballs, Alex finally stopped as he got a little tired from concentrating on the elements.

"So when you say energetic mana, you just mean faster mana regen, right? Not more mana."

Alex nodded, as his mana tunnel didn't change a single bit after drinking that potion.

"Okay... And for the energetic body, what do you mean by that? Is it like a literal meaning?"

As soon as Amelia asked about the second part, Alex's face started blushing red.

"I-It's like blood is pumped up all over the place in my body... And usually, I would have already burnt out casting so much."

"So faster blood flow and higher brain capacity... Okay, let's go back inside the house."

Snapping her finger, the golem vanished as they headed back inside the house before she brought Alex to bed again.

"Now, can you just sit here for a bit? I just need to test how long the effect lasts."

Alex nodded as he sat down on the bed, waiting for the mana regeneration effect to disappear.

However, as they both sat there for twenty minutes, the mana regeneration had barely gone down at all.

"Weird. The effect should be fading away already... Let's go outside and cast more spells again."

After throwing almost hundreds of different spells outside nonstop, Alex could finally feel his mana drying up.

His mana regeneration had drastically decreased. But still, it was a slight increase compared to originally.

"Oh, it's nine already... You can sleep on my bed for the night. I need to make sure something doesn't go wrong with your body."

Alex nodded as he lay on the bed, trying to fall asleep. But seeing her keep on staring at him made it uncomfortable.

"Auntie Amelia... Can you not stare at me like this?" Alex asked as he opened his eyes back up.

"I need to make sure nothing else happens. Just close your eyes, and you won't see me."

Seeing her not backing down, Alex closed his eyes back up again as he tried his best to fall asleep.

Alex quickly covered his hand over his head in pain as Amelia flicked her finger onto his forehead.

"You hear me? Don't try to act like an adult when you're just a sticky kid."

"Okay, okay. I will act like a kid."

Alex admits defeat as he starts covering his entire head underneath his arms.

"You better... And don't forget to keep what happened yesterday a secret between only you and me."

With several nods in the row, Amelia was finally satisfied as she stopped flicking her finger onto his head.

"Ahem, since you're so well-behaved in my experiment, I can fulfill one wish you have."

"How about the man——"

Seeing Amelia staring at him dead in the eyes, Alex quickly shut his mouth before he said something that he would regret.

But after thinking for a bit, his brain kept running blank. He just couldn't come up with a wish on the spot.

"You done with coming up with a wish?" Amelia impatiently asked.

"Can I keep it for next time?" Alex nervously asked.

"What do you think?" .net

As Amelia rolled her eyes, Alex just couldn't come up with anything he needed from her that wouldn't make her mad.

"I don't know then..."

After a short silence between the two, Amelia suddenly let out a sigh before staring right into his eyes.

"Alex Alex, tell me, what do you need, something that makes you manly?" Amelia asked, her voice sounding much more alluring than usual.

"My body is starting to become a woman instead of a man——"

A sudden chill down the spine made Alex snap back into reality, but it was far too late.

"Auntie Amelia! Y-You——"

As Alex pointed at Amelia in disbelief, her face was full-on laughing with no attempt to hide her smiles.

"Come on, Alex. Is that why you're asking me how to be manly? Looking too feminine?"

"I-I... Agh!"

With Alex covering his face in embarrassment, Amelia stopped laughing as she looked back at him with a caring face.

"Alex, I know your body has always looked a little feminine, but whose body doesn't look feminine when they grow up?

Just relax and wait for your body to grow up naturally. You can't rush this kind of stuff——"

As Amelia tried to moved his hand away and hugged him from behind, she suddenly froze as she felt a little bump on his chest.

"Hm!"

Alex quickly covered his mouth in embarrassment as he let out a high-pitched uncontrollably.

"Alex, you..."

The room fell into dead silence until Amelia suddenly moved her hand down and squeezed the bump a little.

"Alex, you have manboobs? Did you eat too much and not exercise at all?" Amelia questioned as Alex's face started to blush red.

"N-No, I exercise almost every single day——I mean, I don't exercise at all, it's just my manboobs."
