Chapter 34
'… Well, but it's not like those people who followed us after we left the store hadn't seen the stone literally appear in mid-air, and then fall into my hand… well, I very much doubt that any of them know what happened there , and even if any of them know, I don't believe that person would tell that to their father or someone close to them, so if someone here asks something, the only person who could have told him would be ... '
"Noah, is everything okay?"
Sophia asked looking at Noah completely immersed in her thoughts.
"Huh? Oh sure… don't forget not to mention anything you see here. "
"... As I said, I will try."
Sophia said as she showed a small expression of uncertainty on her face.
"OK then…"
"But wait, I want you to tell me something first!"
Exclaimed Sophia, interrupting Noah.
"What the fuck, don't you ... I'm sorry ... so tell me, what do you want to know?"
Sophia was startled by the way Noah was about to speak, and that was made explicit in her features, but she was even more surprised by the ease and speed with which he changed from one expression to another, and also from an aggressive voice to a softer one. She wanted to know what had caused that sudden extreme change of mood in him, and all she did was interrupt him for a moment.
'Do they have a very fuse…'
"… Sophia?"
"Ah yes, what?"
Sophia said, a little scared.
"What do you mean what? You said you wanted to know something, so what is it? "
"Ah that? … I wanted to know about how you did it to make your eyes look like this. "
Sophia said a little nervous.
"My eyes? What about them? "
She asked Noah without having a clue what she was talking about.
"... You really don't know?"
Sophia asked in surprise.
"No what?"
"... Your eyes are shining."
"What the ... how is it shining?"
Sophia was startled again by Noah's sudden change of expression, but she replied nonetheless, "The blue in your eye is as bright as the blue in your sword blade, and the red looks like… it looks a lot like the flame it was in. all over the room moments ago. "
"What the fuck is that, what does that mean?"
[This was caused by the acquisition of your bloodlines that you made earlier.]
[The red because of the phoenix and the blue because of the dragon, the color of the dragon was supposed to be black, but since his eye is blue, it just glowed and also a little darker.]
"What the fuck, why didn't you tell me about this shit before !?"
[Ah did I not speak? Sorry about that, I must have forgotten.]
"Forgotten!? Aren't you a fucking system !? How the fuck could you forget something !? "
[Notice!]
[Error!]
[Notice!]
[Error!]
"No fucking mistake, tell me how do I stop this!"
While Sophia saw Noah screaming in that completely different voice than usual, and with that angry expression that she was scaring her just by looking. In her mind Sophia was wondering why he was talking that way, and even more, if he was addressing her while he was saying those things.
'But what did he mean by "mistake"? '
Sophia wondered, wanting to know what Noah meant by that specific word.
[This is impossible!]
[That sparkle in your eyes is the mark of the lineage, and to erase it you would have to get rid of both lineages!]
[Do you want to do that !?]
"What the fuck are you talking about !? You got crazy, you can only, obviously I'm not going to get rid of them. "
[So will you continue with your eyes shining?]
"Obvious."
[But you know this can be dangerous, right?]
"... How so dangerous?"
[There are several records in books around the world, and these records tell you how to identify a person's lineage, as well as how to steal it!]
[What do you think will happen when someone finds out that only one person has the lineage of two legendary beings? Strains that have not appeared in thousands of years.]
"Obviously having a serious system is one of my smallest problems ..."
[Exactly!]
"Oh and thanks for telling me that just now."
[Available.]
"Ah your son of a bitch ..."
"Eh…"
"Ah Sophia, I'm sorry about that, I ended up forgetting for a moment that you were here."
Sophia was again frightened by Noah's sudden change in expression, voice and way of speaking, but along with the fear, in a way, there was also a question in Sophia's head "Why is he acting like this?
A question that without realizing it she spoke out loud in front of Noah.
"Sorry, but could you repeat what you just said?"
She spoke Noah in the same voice as always, but with a serious expression and a small smile on the right side of her face.
When looking at Noah's face, Sophia found herself speechless, but as he had heard it anyway, she asked "(swallows) Why are you… acting so weird?" with her voice shaking a little while she spoke.
