Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 111 Private Message



Chapter 111 Private Message

Once they were done on resuming their current forms, Alex and his Companions slowly walked out of the alley as they approached their apartment.

"This... doesn’t look like a place for the heroes..." The sobbing woman said as she looked at the place that they arrived at. "Is it really fine that your place is like this?"

"...." The sobbing woman’s words were somewhat right, as the apartment in front of them looked nothing like the ideal place for any Hero Team.

"Of course it is fine." Alex replied with a straight face. "This place is perfect you know. This is far from the main portion of the Grand Portion City, and very few people pass by here. That just means that very few will disturb us here!

"...." Alina, Queen Mother, and the sobbing woman did not say anything as they stared at Alex.

Only Asteria had the gall to talk, and what she said grated on Alex’s nerves.

"You just bought this apartment because you could not afford anything else."

"Shut up..." Alex muttered as he opened the door to their apartment.

For the sake of his pride, Alex did not try to observe the state of his apartment, although there really are some questionable things in the apartment that he bought.

"Don’t look around like you are in a haunted house." Alex said as he saw the sobbing woman looking around her warily. "This place is safe, so there is no need to worry. Oh, and there’s internet here too, so you can browse anything while you are here."

"Is that so? Well thank you then..." The sobbing woman wanted to continue talking, but her speech stopped as she fell asleep on the spot.

"What the hell?" Alex looked at Queen Mother, who looked back at Alex quizically. "Queen Mother, why did you force this woman to fall asleep? I need to talk with her yet Hell, we do not even know her name yet."

Queen Mother, who was caught in act the act injecting the sobbing woman with the sleep-inducing chemical, only tilted her head as she and Alina gave Alex looks of scorn.

"Didn’t you see her condition?" Queen Mother said as Alina led the woman to one of the beds. "She clearly was rattled by what had happened to her! Staying up for any longer will just be detrimental to her. Just.. let her sleep now, ok? If you want to talk to her, then just do it tomorrow."

"...Fine." Alex replied as he let out a yawn. "Maybe it is time for me to sleep too." Alex stood up as he approached his room, only for him to perk up as he remembered something.

"Oh right, I need to do some grocery first." Alex said as he placed a palm on his forehead. He then washed his face with some cold water as he approached the door. "Hey, I will go out for a bit first. Expect me to bring back some snacks later."

Alex then proceeded to leave the apartment while WEARING HIS HERO COSTUME.

"Alex, why are you going out in your costume?" Alina inquired as she saw what Alex was doing. "Do you want to patrol again?"

"Hey, its nothing like that!" Alex replied as he wilted under Alina’s intense gaze. "I... just want to go to the grocery while wearing my costume... Doing that feels cool, you know."

"Hmph, boys." Asteria and Alina muttered at the same time as they shook her head.

"Just... don’t do anything weird, ok?" Alina said as she went to the kitchen.

Rumbling sounds could be heard there as the gluttonous swordswoman started to cook up something. "Come back fast, or I might finish up this dish that I will cook."

"Well, you always eat up everything that you cook by yourself." Alex muttered before dodging the cooking spatula thrown by Alina. "Ok! I am sorry! Its not my fault that your ’Nom nom nom’ abilities are too god-like!"

Alex then proceeded to run to the grocery as fast as he could.

A few minutes later.

"...."

The cashier who price scanned Alex’s goods stared at Alex intently as he handed the goods back to him.

"You a new Hero?" The cashier asked as Alex was about to leave the door.

"Uh, yes I am." Alex said as he closed the door. "Watch the news tomorrow morning. You will see me there."

"...Ok."

Alex then proceeded to leave the store with a smug expression on his face, as if he just succeeded on doing something important.

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

When Alex went back to the apartment, he immediately went to sleep.

He slept for approximately 5 hours before he was woken up by a primal shout of rage.

"You dumbasses! Don’t you dare mock my love for Honey! I swear, I will beat you two up!"

Even if he was feeling sleepy now, Alex was sure that the voice came from Asteria herself.

Alex stood up as he rubbed his bleary eyes.

He then gritted his teeth as he decided to give Asteria some good ol’ smacking once he catches her.

"Asteria, what the hell are you doing?" Alex said as he approached Asteria’s location.

"Why are you shouti-" Alex then froze on his tracks as he saw Asteria doing something unfathomable to him.

The fairy queen, the very manifestation of nature itself, one of the main proponents of anything natural, was currently using a computer.

To say that the sight of Asteria using a computer at the middle of the night with everyone asleep was an understatement by itself.

"....."

"...."

"......"

"....."

Both Alex and Asteria stared at each other, as they tried to ascertain the current situation.

Asteria’s cornered expression somehow satisfied Alex, as he was sure that he just caught her her doing something mischievous.

"Now, now, now." Alex said as he dashed towards the computer. "What could be someone like you browsing at this time of the night?"

"Was Asteria looking a some kind of fairy p**n? Wait, does something like that even exist?" Alex thought to himself as he looked at Asteria.

(Author’s note: Rule 34 my bois.)

To Alex’s surprise, Asteria did nothing to prevent Alex from approaching the computer.

Alex naturally took it as his chance to take a peek.

"...Ok." This was Alex’s only word as he looked at the computer screen.

He then deftly manipulated the computer mouse as he browsed through what Asteria reading.

After 5 minutes of looking, Alex shouted out too, as his face wore an expression of pure rage.

"They named me Squidhard and Humboldt? What the f**k are these guys from SHA are smoking? They all suck!"

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

It took Alex some minutes to calm down, with Asteria laughing behind him.

"Hmph, don’t laugh. You just got temp banned, right?" Alex said as he read the remaining comments on the Superhumans Online Discussion Thread(SODT).

"Well, that is just temporary." Asteria replied as she bobbed Alex on his head. "What you should worry now is the attention that you guys got."

"... You’re right." Alex said as his eyes narrowed.

If what the people said as the SOBD was right, then Alex’s actions were already known by many.

For Alex and his Companions, this might be a good thing, but right now, Alex had the feeling that the arrest that they made will complicate matters in the Grand Point City.

"But before you get worried about your newfound publicity, you should get worried about your Hero Names first!" Asteria said as she started to giggle again. "If you don’t fix it quickly, you will surely be remembered as Humboldt forever!"

"Ugh." Alex shook his head as he realized that he must not waste any time now.

"Go, and chat with this Kingfisher guy." Alex said as he glanced at Asteria. "Tell him that we want our names changed, and that we want it now."

"...Ok." Asteria replied as she flew towards the keyboard.

Alex then watched in fascination as Asteria skipped all over the keyboard, as it seemed like she was using her body to type.

[SENDER]: Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

[RECIPIENT]: Kingfisher(SHA Agent]

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Hey, the names that you gave my Heroes all suck! Give us better names!

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Oh, I apologize for the bad names... People at the SHA are really not good on things like naming Heroes.. If you want the name of the members of the Travelers changed, do you already have the names that you want to use?"

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Yes! So, ummm... Are the names Goddess, Sucker, and Spatial already taken?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Dryad is already taken by a Hero in Chicago, while Sucker was taken by a small-time villain that was brutally murdered. As for Spatial, it was taken by a member of the SHA.

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

In that case, please change Katana to Nom-nom-nom, then change Sprout to Queen Milf. As for Humboldt, please make it stay as it is...239rufnncsljfwpiejfjdcdvewt4352452tewqjfoqw3u50329hfoiqll23985y22gbfiwqjkdbscksanjfsdvapoh038or

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Umm, are you ok?

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Yes, I am ok. Some pesky pest just interrupted my typing.

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

So I take it that the names that you said earlier will be their real names already?

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Nope...I am joking about those names.

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

...So, what names do you want so that I can already blot out the ones that we have right now?

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Well, what names do you think would be cool?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

If you are not sure, just try using random name search on the net. Who knows, maybe you can find it there.

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Ok, I am doing it now!

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Tell me once you get it.

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello? Are you done now?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

I swear its, already an hour since you started the random name search. Were you still unable to find anything?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello?

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Oh, sorry for the delay! Here is the final line up of the names!

For our swordswoman: Since Spatial won’t work, just use Khora.

For our green woman: Use the name Dryad

And for our weird tentacle guy: The best that I can find was Eldritch.

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

I’ll update the SHA database then. Thank you for talking to me.

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

Hmph, just do your job better next time!

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

If you are talking about our jobs, would you like to pay a visit to the SHA Headquarters here in Grand Point City? Don’t worry, we will not invite you to join the SHA. We just want to talk with you all, and if you allow it, test your powers here.

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

We’ll think about it.

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

If you come, we will give you some Royal-Grade Honey that we collected from Siberia.

►Asteria (The most extravagant one!)

You should have said that earlier! Okay, we will go now 203tu3209tu09 y50rvfioc409udke8udj09cweujr0dwe9us

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Are you ok?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

You are not replying for an hour already. Are you sure that you are ok?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Hello?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Its been 4 hours already.... Will you still reply?

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Ok, if you and your group want to go, just go to our Headquarters, we will wait for you there...

►Kingfisher (SHA Agent)

Still no reply?
