Conquering The Game's World

Chapter 30: Alicia's Thoughts.

Breaking out in sweats, Luis panted for breaths. 'It seems I used up a lot of Mana.' His eyes darted in a certain direction, where he saw the destruction caused by his spell.

"Did I overkill?" Luis muttered.

"Wow, Luis, what was that?"

An excited voice of Lumine chimed beside him. "Your father mentioned the spells you learned, but isn't this too powerful for your rank?"

If someone told her that the spell was cast by an E rank, she would believe it. But Luis was still a G rank. She gave birth to a genius son; she felt very proud at that moment.

Luis was embarrassed by the look she was giving.

"My son is so handsome and talented," Lumine said with a doting smile.

Ignoring her remarks, his eyes inadvertently shifted to Alicia as he worriedly looked at her.

"Alicia, are you okay? You were surrounded by them."

"Huh? I'm fine." Alicia replied, snapping out of her daze-like state.

"Really?" Luis continued, looking into her eyes as if searching for something. Under his inquiring gaze, she finally relented and with some hesitation, she finally asked. "Um? How did you do that?"

Since the day she awakened, and her talents were determined. With three S-grade compatible talents, she was considered a genius of this new generation and a future powerhouse with a lot of potential.

At first, she didn't care much about it and just thought it might make things a little smoother on her path to revenge. But after meeting Luis, her initial thoughts changed. He made her realize how wrong she was.

The mistake she was making would have destroyed her eventually, if not now, then in the future. He guided her to the correct path of revenge and even promised to walk this path down with her together.

This made her curious. 'What kind of person was her fiancé?' Since then, she started noticing him more. They spend a lot of time together, mostly doing her future mother-in-law's hell-like training.

In this last week, she had noticed that Luis was very talented. Just as or maybe even more talented than her. But even then, she felt the gap between them wasn't much.

When she found out he had an affinity with the Lightning attribute, which was just as rare as her Ice attribute, she felt genuinely happy.

They practiced together, but she never felt much disparity between them. She thought they could get stronger together. But just now, she witnessed something that made her beliefs shatter.

Luis' movement was so fast that she couldn't even catch it. They were in the same rank, but Luis' speed was something she could never reach. So she wanted to know, "How did you move so fast?"

He was silent for a moment as he gave a glance at Lumine. She just shrugged and gestured for him to do what he wants. But inwardly she hoped that Luis won't lie to Alicia. She wanted them to build a trustful relationship with each other so they won't fall out because of some contradictions.

Well, even if Luis wants to hide his powers from Alicia, she won't say anything. After all, it's up to them how they make their relationship out to be.

'Ahh, so interesting. It's like I'm watching a drama.' Lumine felt she might be a bad mother who is finding his son's troubles fun.

Luis just gave a soft smile at Lumine's reaction. To be honest, he expected it to turn out like this.

Not getting any response from Luis, Alicia was a little flustered, as she quickly said, "Well, I can understand if you don't want to tell me. It's fine. I can understand you might want to hide your abilities."

Although Alicia said casually, she was disappointed in her heart, as her cold expression was resurfacing on her face.

Luis knew his one wrong move might end up bringing a lot of trouble into their relationship. In the worst-case scenario, Alicia might lose all the trust they had built until now. She might even shut any approach from him while becoming cold and distant once again and He preferred to avoid that from happening.

As he gazed at Alicia, he said in a gentle tone, "I don't want to hide anything from you, Alicia."

Thinking that he was going to tell her, Alicia's mood brightened a bit.

Then his tone suddenly turned serious. As he said, "Listen, Alicia, what I am about to tell is a very important secret. It's something I don't want to be revealed to anyone."

Feeling the seriousness of the matter, Alicia's eyes also turned serious. 'It seems things are not as simple as having a special skill.' She suddenly felt a little guilty about putting Luis on the spot like this.

Unbeknownst to her thoughts, Luis continued, "But you are also an important person in my life. So I don't want to hide it from you. I just hope you keep it a secret for me."

Hearing this, Alicia felt a little sweet in her heart. But her curiosity was also piqued at that moment. Under her curious gaze, Luis finally revealed his secret.

"I have a second attribute."

*Splash*

Like a stone was thrown on a still lake, many ripples formed inside Alicia's heart. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"D-Did I hear that right?"

Seeing her disbelieving expression. Luis nodded and repeated. "Yeah, you heard me. I have a second Space attribute."

*Boom*

Alicia's mind was in shambles. From his serious expression, she had expected a lot of secrets but this was on a whole another level. A second attribute, moreover Space. That is considered a legend.

"A dual attribute?" She asked once again.

"Yes," Luis nodded.

"Not a mutated one?" She asked with disbelief written all over her face.

Shaking his head, he answered, "No." Then continued. "I have two attributes, Lightning and Space."

Alicia rubbed her temples as it was a lot to take in suddenly. Then she thought of something and asked, "That movement earlier was as well..."

Nodding his head in affirmation, "Yeah, it was a spell, like a short-distance teleport called Spatial Jump."
