Chapter 140 140. Rebecca Forgotten Heroin
**Huff* *Huff* How as a man you- *Huff* this strong?"
Rebecca once again seating on her initial opposition but different than before was that she was huffing for air, Her more than D-cups were moving in seemingly fluid motion against the law of physics
Her wavy long brown waist-length hair which was before carefully maintained Now was unkempt making it look like a bird\'s nest.
Her smooth wide forehead also had the bread of sweat dripping down from her delicate angular face, There was flown between her crescent-like half-moon eyebrows showing her dissatisfaction but also making her look cute.
Her royal violet-coloured one-piece dress also moved a little showing off the richness of her physique to Alex.
Rebecca did not bother about her appearance in front of Alex that much, Anyway it was not that big of a deal if it was Alex as it only worked in her favour.
What she was more worried about was the fact that strength he had shown just now. She glanced at Alex whose not even a single hair got affected by their banter, He was sitting there as if they had not just had a little stand-off here.
She never thought that Alex will be that strong, Though in fairness she did not use any spiritual power right now but even then as a B-Rank warrior, She should not be defected this badly by an F-Rank warrior and that too by a man.
It is unheard of, rarely there is a figure born in the world who can fight across 1 big rank. Those ones will become a legendary warrior who will leave a mark in history.
But never even once was an F-Rank rank able to fight with B-Rank like this, No it was even against common sense, How can one fight someone 4 ranks bigger than them? It was breaking the scaling measurements.
It was still though very hard to accept but can be taken care of. What is more, disbelieving things is that this was done by a man.
She was not sexist or anything but it was a natural proven fact that women are way stronger than men, And that difference increases drastically when it comes to cultivation.
Men are not favoured by the world at all, You can even say they are hated by it, So it was very hard for them to advance in the already hard ranks and then to their strengths come nowhere near the women in the same ranks.
So it was a worldview-breaking thing for her that Alex got this strong.
"Why? Can\'t a man beat a woman? This is a little sexist, Don\'t you think?"
Alex looked at Rebecca and also understood her inner turbulence. After all, what he did was really impossible in her eyes. Man, is this world treated as 2nd class citizens but not by people but by the world itself?
Alex did not know who made this world like this as in both plots there was just a hint here and there but no concrete proof of it, But he was sure of one thing anyone who did this hated man a lot.
I mean everything in this world is either made to work against men or give unfavourable advantages to women.
Like spiritual power all around this world, This power favours women a lot, So much so that for a woman it was 2 to 5 times easier to cultivate than a man.
Not to mention women also have 10 times more chances to awaken their superpower hidden in them, And if one parent has a superpower then there is an 80% chance daughter born to them will also have a superpower.
But the odds of men did not increase, Same if both parents have superpowers then there is only a 10% extra increase in the chance that a son born to them will get a superpower but a daughter will 100% will get it.
This is how much this world hates men, If not for the system\'s op things he will also be that weak, Though on paper he is F-Rank but his combat power already reached C-Rank, But still he could not able to advance in rank is all thanks to 10 times restriction of the world on him.
He has to work 10 times harder than women to increase his rank, That\'s why he is still stuck on the peak of F-Rank but this was also a good thing as because of it his foundation was solidified.
So Alex was not a bit surprised by the shock of Rebecca, Which was justifiable but that did not mean he will let go of the chance to tease her.
After all, he still needs to raid her to survive, and for a woman like her, this is the best approach.
Unlike Alia whose raid has to be to give and take control from her hands, Rebecca\'s one is to take all control in his hands, And be more wild than she is. This works best with her type of heroine.
Also a universal thing of being hard to understand and creating curiosity like basic things also work on her, He just does not get it why the system has yet to notify to his increase in her favorability.
He was waiting for it but the system did not make any sound.
"It\'s not that I am sexist but man being strong is not a good thing for them."
Rebecca now kinda gets it how his brain works, So she did not bother to justify her statement but said what she wanted to say.
She really thinks for a man to be thin is not a good thing, It was against the nature of man and kinda useless.
"You said not to be sexist and said the most sexist thing, Rebecca. Why is it not good for men to be strong? Will it hurt the fragile ego of women?"
Alex is not happy when Rebecca does not fall for his trap, It was only the 2nd type of entertainment here in this world of his after the one on the bed.
So he still tried to provoke her, Just to bring down her IQ which started to rise. After all it was not good for him, If her brain suddenly started working.
"Again not sexist, Did you not know the stronger the man is, the shorter their life span than women of the same rank? So the stronger you become, the earlier you die than a woman in the same rank."
Rebecca was startled by his comment but knew he was just trying to mess with her, So she did not pay any attention to it and went directly to the point she was trying to tell him.
It is common sense that the stronger the person gets the more their lifespan also increases, This is the reason why people are so crazy about increasing their ranks.
As some want eternal youth, Some want immortality and some want to preserve their beauty, So they walk on the hard road of immortal cultivation.
Each rank is respective to their level, increasing some amount of the lifespan of a person which applied to all of them no matter the nature of their superpowers.
From 100 years on F-Rank to 10,000-15,000 years added in S-Rank, It is common knowledge but it was only for women, Not men.
For men, F-Rank gives an extra 90 years which was not that low compared to a woman but as their level increases it will become lower and lower to the extent that the S-Rank of a man will only get 1000 to 25000 years added to them making it useless to waste time in practice for it.
Yes, the world hates a man to this extent. If a man gets stronger even after 10 times more practice restrictions then it was the world\'s way to prevent them from getting more powerful.
"...I forgot about that thing."
Alex was stunned but then casually answered her as if he did not care about this fact.
\'FUCK!!!! How could I forget this important thing?\'
But in his mind, he was yelling like a madman. He had forgotten this thing as too much happens these days.
He also now doubts that this world is made by those red-haired women. He has a lot of proof of it. After all, only they are the one who hates a man to this extent, This world will be a paradise for them.
But then the worry in his heart is dismissed. He is a man with a system, and of course, he will find a way to counter the laws of this world.
"Rebecca, Tell me about your superpower, How did you stop the time?"
Alex then asked her what he wanted to ask her, the Author of her novel did not pay much attention to her as her powers are too strong to create any threat to Jake, So she most of the time stayed behind the scenes.
And when the Author decided to show her power, Jake already became too strong, So there was no significant meaning in paying attention to her power, So she became a forgotten heroine just like Helen.
So Alex is now curious about what grade or what kinda power she had but he did not expect to hear it from her.
\'System uses the eye of truth on her."
He just wanted to distract her until he saw her real accurate stats from the system.
[Ding....]
(A/N : Her power is the reason I am paying attention to her.
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day .)
