DEVIANT - Chapter 137
137 Chapter 137: We meet again fđđŠđđđđŻđđŒŃ”đl.đđ°đ¶
Alex stood and gazed at his body in shock. His eyes were like that of a cat but thankfully he wasnât furry. He couldnât stop the flames burning around him and even his black hair was set ablaze making him worry that he may lose all his hair when he returns to normal.
âFunny enough this is no normal flameâ Alex noticed.
âIn my world, we call it rabid power... Damage dealt with an enemy never heals... if the target is not strong enough, the wound will fester, spreading until they die...â the Danite alienâs voice echoed in his head in response.
âBut this also means if the enemy is strong enough they can forcefully stop the injury from festeringâ Alex said calmly.
âYesâ the voice answered.
âThe strength of a familiar... can it grow?â Alex asked.
That was all that was bothering him. He always believed it would be bad if he got stronger and the cat still remains the same.
âA familiar has its base strength and then scales higher with the improvements its host makes.... When it was my familiar it was fairly powerful... but after I was badly hurt by your people I had no choice but to sever my connection with it, so its power dropped to its base strengthâ The Danite said calmly.
âWhy would you sever your connection with your Familiar?â Alex was stunned.
.....
âIf the master dies then the familiar dies with itâ the Danite didnât hesitate to give Alex that piece of information.
Hearing this, Alex was stunned. This explains why the cat insists on flowing him everywhere.
âAnd if the familiar dies?â Alex asked with furrowed eyebrows.
âYou get hurt but itâs not enough to kill you...â the Danite said calmly.
âThe main strength of the Danite comes from their familarsâ The Danite added.
âIf familiars exist in this world they should be the ones protesting for equal rightsâ Alex joked.
âYou donât believe in womenâs rights?â the Danite asked with a hint of shock.
But Alex was the one who was more stunned. He didnât think the Danite would look into things like this when he studied humans.
âI was bored and had a lot of free time so I did some researchâ The Danite said and Alex nodded in understanding.
âItâs not that I donât believe, I simply find it unnecessary.... There is no such thing as equality in this world, no man is born of the same value... â Alex said.
âThat still doesnât answer my question... you donât believe in womenâs rights?â the Danite asked with a serious tone. This made Alex wonder why he wanted to speak on this topic badly.
Is it because he is half Man half-woman?
âNo, I donât... Men are born with power and women are born with privileges... Thatâs what I know for sure... The majority of people who go to war are men... Men are the protectors in a family... Men have to make money to gain value... Meanwhile, a woman can be born with a pretty face and from a poor background. All she has to do is maintain her beauty, donât be the best at anything, and wait for a man who has spent his entire life hustling to come and bend a knee begging her to feed off him for the rest of her lifeâ Alex said with a little bit of annoyance in his face.
âWomen do bear children here... doesnât that count for something?â the Danite asked.
âSo? Every service a woman can render can be bought... I can pay someone to have kids for me... I can pay someone to cook and clean but I cannot give you a hundred dollars and expect you to give me a thousand dollars in return... You have to create value to earn money and thatâs what men do all their lives... The problem these days is that men do not know their value... If things were the way itâs meant to be if all men knew their value. Women would be the ones asking us out and providing because they live in a manâs world... they need us to survive no matter how much they say they donâtâ Alex seemed more visibly annoyed each time he spoke about the topic.
âYet you have a girlfriendâ The Danite said with a strange tone.
âTracy is an exception... She has a good background, sheâs one of the greatest scientists in the country and as far as I am concerned she is providing value both to me and the society thatâs why I treat her as equals... The dependency in the relationship is mutual since itâs 50-50 and thatâs what you need to build a healthy relationship... itâs not the same with other relationships where the men are the ones on the losing sideâ Alex explained.
Bam!
A sound drew Alexâs attention and he only turned to see, Silver standing there with a flashlight. He realized little beast was standing on his head and has undone the fusion process.
âIf it were any other person, they would think you have gone crazy... Stop talking to yourself so seriously and come and rest... tomorrow will be really busyâ Silver said and Alex nodded
.....
The next morning, Alex retraced his steps back to the small wooden hut where he met the Danite but this time everyone came with him. They all believed that the secret entrance to the underground facility maybe somewhere around there and thatâs why the serpent emerged.
The team got to the place but there was no wooden hut anymore but the lake was still there. Alex gazed around confused. This was like an open Greenfield so he failed to understand how they are meant to find an entrance here.
Meow!
Little beastâs expression suddenly turned cold and only then did Alex get that feeling again!
The feeling of being watched.
His body felt cold but he clenched his fist and a cruel smile bloomed on his face. He had no intentions of letting this beast bully him like it did the last time.
âWe meet again!â Alex said in a murderous tone.
