Chapter 416 I“m going to say the A-word!

1 MONTH LATER

Even when Alex had already stayed and did his work in the Institute for over a month, Wisteria still failed the find the reason on why he was here.

Everytime she tried to ask him about his motives, Alex would usually casually deflect the topic, or in some instances, he will just straight up not answer it.

Even when Wisteria tried to deduct his plans through his daily actions, she still did not discover anything about him.

This was of course enough to bring Wisteria to the brink of collapse, as she was just full of anxiety regarding this man.

What does he really plan to do in this place, and why does he make it appear as if he is enjoying doing it?

"Miss Wisteria, you’re frowning again. Do you have another problem that you want to talk about?" Alex casually asked as he ate his bread. He just dipped this bread into a cup of hot chocolate, creating an imagery that was bizarre for Wisteria’s standards.

"Tsk, just ignore me, Alexander. This is my personal dilemma, so don’t get bothered with it." Wisteria replied as she tried to not look on what Alex was doing. "Why are you even interested on what I am doing, when you have a lot to do? Shouldn’t you be doing them now?"

"Doing what? I finished them all already."

"...Alexander, you really are a cheat." This was the only thing that Wisteria can say as she felt crushed by Alex’s radiant talent. "With that kind of talent, why are you even here? You should be teaching at a higher level!"

"Hoho, it sounds like you are suspecting me again, Miss Wisteria. How many times did I have to tell it to you? I am only here to enjoy things." Alex replied as he gave Wisteria a piece of bread. "Want one? Just dip this bread on this chocolate, and I swear it will taste real good."

"No thanks. I am already full." Wisteria said in a cold tone as she quickly stood up. Upon standing up, she quickly glared at Alex, as if she was prompting him to do something.

"Alexander, you should hurry up and finish eating already." Wisteria said as she did her best to resist the wondrous aroma of Alex’s hot chocolate. "We still have to assemble at the entrance hall for the arrival of our visitors! If we don’t come there in time, our pays will surely be docked!"

"Visitors? Oh, so those people from the other planets are coming today?" Alex, who was into his third cup of chocolate already, paused his movements as he looked back as Wisteria. "I thought they will come to this planet today, and that they will approach this school tomorrow..."

"Hah? Why would they do that?" Wisteria snorted as she crossed her arms. "In case that you did not know it, our Institute has a built-in landing pad that was meant for arriving spaceships. That pad was created in order to accommodate interplanetary visitors who might want to visit this Institute. And that includes the visitors that will come today. So they do not need to land on another place, as they can just land here on the institute itself!"

"Oh, that’s nice, I guess." Alex muttered as he downed the chocolate in one go. He then put down the cup in a gentle manner, which made Wisteria snort in exasperation. "So do we really have to go now?"

"Yes, we have to go." Wisteria replied as she started walking away from Alex. Fortunately for Wisteria, Alex immediately followed her, although the way that he mimicked her pace as she walked brought back her irritation on him.

"Hoohoo, I am about to see some aliens today! Isn’t that great?" Alex suddenly said out of the blue, making Wisteria look all around her in panic.

"Hey! Don’t you f**king say the word ’alien’ in front of the ’other planet’ visitors later!" Wisteria hissed as she gave Alex a glare that could potentially burn his body. "If you ever say that word in front of them, I cannot assure your safety! So if you don’t want to die and bring this institute down with you, stop saying that word!"

"Why am I not allowed to say the A word? Is it something that offends them?’

"I don’t know! They just don’t like it!" Wisteria continued to say as she gave Alex a warning glare. "Now, if you are curious on why they don’t like it, just ask it to the dean after the visit! Do you understand that?"

"Okay, okay, I understand."

"Good. You know what? I think the best thing that you can do while the ’other planet’ visitors come in is just simple. Stay quiet. That’s it. Stay... quiet." Wisteria said as she pointed her finger at Alex. "If you do that, then your life and our life will surely be safe..."

"Miss Wisteria, why are you not allowing me to talk? Are you someone who can command me that?"

"I can’t command you, but I can surely warn you!" And now I am warning you about offending them!" Wisteria said, almost shouting out these words. "I am just giving you an advice about not offending those people. If you value your life, then I wish that you will follow my advice to stop speaking. If you don’t, then my colleagues will probably try to stop you from speaking forcefully..."

"Huh. So this ali-’other planet’ people must be scary then." Out of all the things that Alex can comment, this was actually the one that he just said. "If they were scary, does that mean that they look scary too?’

"You! That’s the second thing that you’re not allowed to say! Don’t comment about their appearance! Never. Do. That! Do you understand?’

"Geez, of course I will not be that insensitive to point out their appearance. Who do you think I am? I am Alexander, whose primary skills are charming people and creatures alike" Alex replied unfazedly even when Wisteria looked like she was about to devour him. "Even aliens and monstrous beings will also fall for my charm, so you should not worry for me at all!"

"Hey! What did I just say about the A-word?"

"Shh, keep quiet Miss Wisteria. I think the spaceship is coming."

"Ah f**k! Why are we still here? Let’s hurry the f**k up! We’re screwed if we’re late!"

"I’m on it, Miss Wisteria."

"Oi! Why are you carrying me?"

"If we run this way, it will be faster, right?"

"You!"

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

10 MINUTES LATER

A pale-looking Wisteria and a beaming Alex managed to join the line of the teachers on time, making Wisteria heave a sigh of relief on herself.

She tried to not look at Alex as she tried to calm her body down, as she knew that looking at him right now will just trigger more of her negative emotions.

"This man... even though he did not yet show any of his ability, I can certainly say that he is more powerful than me!" Wisteria thought to herself as she clenched her fists. "With the power that I had, Alexander should not be able to carry me easily. But that is what had happened here, and he just carried me like I am just a sack of flour! F**k, if he can do that easily to me, then does that mean that he can also easily kill me too?"

It was logical for Wisteria to feel fear, as what Alex did to her earlier was something that went against the norms of what she knew.

Wisteria knew that her strength was something that cannot be just scoffed at, as the power that she had was something that is both rare and anomalous!

Wisteria, who was the product of a Symbolist and a Celestial couple, has the abilities of both a Symbolist and a Celestial! This allows her to use the powers of the Symbolist and a Celestial at the same time without any repercussions. She can also fuse the abilities of these two powers together, creating powerful techniques that are enough to overwhelm stronger people.

People like Wisteria, who had two powers inside their bodies, were called Dual Masters in this world. This is an apt term, as anyone who becomes like Wisteria can be considered to be masters in their own right.

But even with this kind of power, Dual Masters like her were extremely rare in this world, as the conditions in order to become a Dual Master was just extremely stringent.

These conditions were so stringent that Wisteria only had met with one Dual Master before, and that Dual Master had already died due to an accident.

Through arduous training and ingenious thinking, Wisteria was able to use her power as a Dual Master in its highest capabilities, allowing her to become one of the strongest people here in her country.

With that kind of strength, Wisteria was sure that it will be hard to find someone who can hold a candle against her.

But Alex quickly shattered that belief, as he was able to easily pick her up, even when Wisteria had tried to resist against it!

"This man, since he can easily do that to me, then does that mean that he’s also a Dual Master? But if that was true, then he must be at a higher level than me..." Wisteria thought to herself urgently as she gave Alex a wary glance.

Alex appeared to be somewhat excited by the arrival of the visitors, which can be seen on the wide smile on his face. He could also be seen tapping his armrest in a constant rhythm, creating a series of thumping sounds that seemed to be following a certain beat.

Wisteria ignored this incessant beat sounding out beside her as she decided to put back the matter about Alex’s power on her mind.

"His powers surely are a problem, but for now, I must focus on the visitors first!" Wisteria thought to herself as she adjusted her posture. "If we screw up just by a little here, then it will be over for us. So I must do my best to not f**k up!"

She then tried to make herself look dignified, which was the thing that the other teachers did too.

Even the students joined in on the act, with even the rowdy students stopping their noise.

"..."

All of these people straightened their bodies as a solemn look appeared on their faces. They slowed down their breathing until it came to the point that everyone was breathing at the same time. They then placed their hands on their back as they stared at the sky above them.

And then they waited.

And waited.

And waited.

And waited.

And waited...

"Come on, you visitors. You’re already floating above there since earlier. Why don’t you just come down now?" Wisteria complained to herself inwardly as she stared at the massive spaceship that was hovering just right above the institute.

Even though this spaceship was almost near at them, it did not show any signs of going down. It just stayed still in the air, as if it had so plans to even move at all.

This made everyone on the ground stifle in irritation, as they became anxious about what they were seeing.

"Visitors, are there still something that you want to do? Come on, just come down already! I am tired making myself look like this!"
