Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 134 Yay, Interruptions!

The following day.

"This place is good." Alina said as she walked amongst the crowd, with Alex in tow behind her. "For us to see this many merchandises really says something about the Heroes in this World. What do you think about that, Alex?"

"Well..." Alex does not know what to say, as he was busy ogling at Alina’s current attire.

She was wearing an ebony form-fitting dress that hugged her body tightly. Her shapely legs and thin waist were perfectly emphasized by her dress. Every time she walks, her dress managed to make it look like she was sashaying gracefully.

Alina’s hair was tied in a bun, and she finished off that look with a pair of glasses.

She was also wearing high-heels, which resulted in Alina gaining a classy and elegant look.

Heads were all turning to Alina’s direction as she walked, making Alex feel proud and happy .

But even if he was in euphoria right now, Alex was not sure if he really deserved to have someone like Alina having a date with him.

But nonetheless, they are having their date now, so Alex will make full use of it.

Alex knew that his date with Alina will be great, as Asteria was nowhere near them.

Before they went out earlier, Alina directly requested Asteria to stay at the apartment, so that she will not bother Alex and Alina on their date. Asteria complied, in exchange for some Royal-Grade Honey.

This absence of Asteria already brought positive results on their date, and Alex will obviously not screw it all up.

Both of them just finished having their dinner, and right now, they were touring the streets of the Grand Point City, specifically the portion where most of the merchandises related to Heroes were sold.

Even if Alex was distracted by Alina’s appearance, Alex could still understand what Alina just said about the Hero Merchandises.

Everywhere that Alex looked around him, all that he could see were stores filled to the brim with action figures and toys related to famous Heroes.

Just by walking around, Alex already saw some figurines of Might and Magical Girl.

Well, since these two Heroes were famous here in Grand Point City, for them to have their own action figures here were already plausible.

There were also figurines of the Pantheon Heroes, and Alex could see that they were the best-selling merchandises here.

"...You are just busy ogling at me huh." Alina commented as she saw Alex’s eyes darting on her body. "Were you really this pervy that you forgot to answer my question earlier?"

"Um, I was just speechless by your appearance. You cannot blame me if you bedazzled me." Alex replied without a hint of shame in his face. "It’s your fault for being this beautiful."

"...I won’t be swayed by any of your praises anymore." Alina said, although a hint of blush could still be seen in her cheeks.

Alex pretended to not notice that as he said,

"Well, regarding your question earlier, I feel that the Hero Culture had been so integrated in this World that products related to them are just the norm." Alex then pointed at the store at their left as he stared at the action figures stored there.

"People in this World would want to have something that will make their Heroes more approachable. Having them represented as action figures and toys makes these Heroes feel ’home-friendly to them."

"So in the end, all of this is just some big Public Relations stunt." Alina said as she tilted her head.

She then gave Alex a somewhat fed-up smile as she said, "Hey Alex, do you want to buy some action figures? I can see that you want to buy some. Don’t try lying to me. I know if you will lie."

"...Fine, let’s buy some actions figures." Alex said as he enthusiastically brought Alina inside the store.

"Boys." That was all that Alina could say as she shook her head, feeling amused about Alex’s childish antics.

*******************

4 hours later.

"That... was fun." Alina said to Alex after they came out of the 4th restaurant in their date. "All the restaurants that you brought me in have nice food. Oh, and that store was nice too. I think Lara will love some of the toys I bought for her."

"Yeah, I guess she will love it." Alex said as he rubbed his stomach.

Even if Alex was a Traveler now, for him to eat at 4 different restaurants at a single night could be considered to be his limit.

Alina of course has no problems with eating that many food. Heck, she even looked like she could eat more!

"So..." Alex said as he tried to keep all the food that he ate inside his stomach. "Should I bring you back to the apartment now?"

"Well, that is all up to you." Alina said as he suddenly looked down shyly. "But you know...." Alina then rubbed her hands together, as if she was trying to say something that she found hard to say. "Actually..."

"Alina...." Alex could not help but smile as he saw Alina’s demure appearance. His head began to feel hot as he held her hands tightly.

Thinking that the time is already ripe, Alex leaned in as he decided to kiss her.

"..." Alina did not resist against Alex’s actions, as she received his kiss with enthusiasm.

"...." Their lips remained locked with each other for a minute, with both of them left panting as they broke off the kiss.

Alex looked at Alina’s glazed eyes, realizing that she was enjoying this way too much.

Alex tried to go for a kiss again, and Alina once more accepted his lips without any hesitation.

They repeatedly exchanged more affectionate pecks for the following minute, with both of them starting to feel exhilarated.

"Hah!" Alex said as he managed to get his bearings back. He looked back at Alina, whose face was entirely red.

Alex then looked at Alina’s dress, which looked rumpled right now, as Alex’s naughty hands were busy meandering on Alina’s body while they were kissing earlier.

"Are you sure you want to bring me back to your apartment?" Alina said as a shy smile appeared on her face. "It’s already midnight. It’s not safe for us to walk at this time. Maybe we should go sleep on a nearby hotel, so that we can be safe..."

"..." Alex’s heart thumped as he realized the look given to him by Alina.

Even the words uttered by her were already a subtle invitation of what was about to come.

"Ok... le-le-let me look for a nearby hotel." Alex stuttered as he looked around in panic.

Alina giggled at Alex’s panicky state, although some signs of nervousness could also be seen on her face. "Take it easy Alex, we have a lot of time here."

"Yes I know..." Alex replied as he tried calming himself down. "It’s just that... I have never done something like this before."

"Neither do I." Alina replied with a soft voice.

"Well, we just go to take this slow then." Alex said as Alina giggled once more.

"Pita, pita" Their footsteps then echoed across the road, as they walked together to look for a ’safe place’ where they can sleep in.

Alex was currently holding hands with Alina, with their bodies extremely close to each other. They were so close with each other that Alex could feel Alina’s heart beating nervously. Alex could feel Alina’s warm body pressing against him, making his slumbering desires rise up in full power.

Alex also enjoyed the fragrance wafting from Alina, which just made him much more excited.

Alina did not look that different either. Even if she was trying to show a stoic expression, her fast breathing and slightly dilated pupils showed her excitement right now.

Alex was not sure if he should say something here, as he feared that doing so will break the atmosphere between then.

So, that left both Alex and Alina keeping quiet as they slowly trudged to their target location.

"..." Both of them were both feeling nervousness and anticipation of what was about to come, and only their contact with each other was what keeping them composed.

But before they could reach their sanctuary, something interrupted their walk.

"So, you two lovebirds are about to make your nest huh. Sorry if I intruded your mating ritual." A feminine voice said behind Alex and Alina. "I actually wanted to talk to you earlier, but you two were so busy kissing each other that I felt like watching! Oh, I’m sorry for that one too."

"Who!" Both Alex and Alina spun around, looking at the person who just talked behind them.

"Hey, I am not here to fight." The speaker said as Alex and Alina displayed their fighting poses. "Seriously, I come in peace."

Alex narrowed his eyes as he observed the speaker who dared interrupt their cozy walk.

The speaker looked to be a woman around 18 years old, with white skin and curly brown hair.

Her body was gangly and thin, and it looked like it had no feminine features in it.

As for the woman’s face, she was wearing tinted glasses, which hid her eyes, but it was quite apparent form her smile that her head had some few screws loose in it.

"You... you are that mad scientist." Alex said as his FED Manipulation confirmed that this woman’s emotional aura was similar to the emotional aura of the mad scientist that he fought against yesterday!

"Exactly!" The mad scientist replied as her smile widened. "And you two are Khora and Eldritch, right?"

"Why the hell are you here? And how did you know our identity?" Now that the cat is out of the bag, Alex knew that denying things will not work here. So, he had to just go straight to the point. "Are you here to take us out?"

"Of course not! I am an honorable scientist, and I will never do despicable things like that!" The mad scientist said as she shook her head sadly in a theatrical way. "Oh my god, you dare doubt me? This hurts my feelings the most, although my feelings are just the products of my hormones! And for your information, I am here to talk with you two!"

"..."

"...She is not lying." Alina whispered to Alex as she conjured her sword on her waist. "She is not here to attack us. She really wants to have a talk."

"Oh f**k this s**t!" Alex cursed angrily, partially because of the mad scientist appearing here, and mostly because of his opportunity going to dust because of this damned mad scientist!
