Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 725 Opening your house not only for friends, but also for enemies?

The man did not even explain why he is willing to offer this path towards the four women.

He just said that he’s interested on seeing them there, and that he could not wait to get his hands on all of them.

If that message was not creepy enough, then Wisteria is not sure what can be creepy anymore...

"Huhuhu, I already told Alina many times that this could be a trap, but she said it’s just fine. Her eyes are telling her that this mouth is indeed the real deal, and even Astria is agreeing with that..."

"Because of these two verifying its authenticity, we have no choice now but to enter this mouth. And we are still entering it, even if it was that suspicious Alex who guided us here in the first place..."

"These women did not even doubt Alex’s goals, and they are just fine on actually entering it?"

"I know that they want to go to the Ancestral Tomb already, but should they really have believed what Alex was saying?"

"Alex was already corrupted by the Abyss for goodness’ sake! Isn’t that enough to make his words less credible?"

Wisteria’s complaints inside her mind showed that she does not fully trust Alex’s sincerity to them.

How could she even trust it, when the man himself was already suspicious enough?

But no matter how much Wisteria suspected this man, she can only find herself helpless against him.

How could even reject Alex’s help, when his ’help’ was the only thing that they can use to reach their destination?

Wisteria might be a wary person, but that does not make her afraid of taking risks.

Since this is their only way to reach the Ancestral Tomb, then Wisteria will use this ’mouth’ with the greatest precaution that she can ever have in her life.

"Tsk, since this is the only way that we can go to the Ancestral Tomb, then so be it. We just have to use this path to reach our destination..."

Whatever happens after she enters this mouth was still unknown to Wisteria, but deep inside her, she was only wishing one thing.

Which is that their trip will be safe, and there will be nothing that will be hindering them.

Such wish might come true given their line-up, but since it was Alex who held advantage in this situation, anything can happen...

______________

_____________

The Wisteria of 2 days ago would think that the notion of Alex offering them this mouth as a free path was the worst-case scenario in their situation.

But as it turns out, there is something else that can make this whole ’Ancestral Tomb case’ even worse.

And that ’something’ was....

"I thought that it will be only our group that will be using this mouth. But as it turns out, it actually is not."

"Because other groups of people will be entering here too, and none of them are amicable to us."

"In fact, these incoming groups of people are the other Travelers, who are obviously enemies of Alina...."

"They came here so that they can use the ’mouth’, and they don’t show any interest of letting us use it by ourselves!"

Yes, this is the problem that had surfaced before Alina and the others could use the ’mouth’.

Alex actually offered the ’mouth’s’ usage towards the other Travelers too, and he did not even ask Alina or the others about it!

He just allowed these Travelers to come to this place, as if he was expecting all of them to just act happy while they crowded together around the pathway.

"Argh! And these Travelers even had the gall to say that they won’t be treating Alina with favor because of this? These bastards! It was her partner who allowed them to use the mouth, and they dared to act like this?"

"They really are impudent, and the fact that Alex is encouraging them is just making things worse!"

"Argh! That stupid Alex! If I were not just an outsider, I would have strangled him by myself already!"

If it weren’t for the fact that she is stuck with Alina and the others, Wisteria could have already started flying around this world so that she could find Alex and actually strangle him.

This is how angry Wisteria is right now, and there is no amount of ice cream or comfort foods that will calm her down.

"With these kind of conditions swirling in this place, there is no way that our trip through this disgusting mouth will be safe!"

"Not only do we have to be careful from the possible traps inside the mouth, we also have to be careful from the attacks of the other Travelers that will be joining us in this trip!"

How could Wisteria even calm down after she witnessed everything that Alex had done?

Aside from abandoning Alina and his other Companions, Alex still had the gall to invite Alina’s enemies to her doorstep!

He even allowed them to use the only object that will give Alina an advantage for their Main Mission! And he did it in such a way that it completely ignored Alina’ importance in this whole situation!

Such cruel and malicious action is enough to enrage Wisteria, although she had no way of venting it now.

All that she can use was her mind, which was her best and greatest form of entertainment ever since she was born.

"Tsk, I still can’t believe that both Alina and Professor Frances are not becoming angry at Alex because of his actions. Was it because he’s so charismatic that his allies can easily forgive him? Ugh, if that’s the case, then Alex must have been a real scum...."

"Sigh, I can’t wait to see his smug face again so that I can punch it already...."

Wisteria clenched her fists as she imagined bludgeoning Alex’s face over and over, an imaginative scene that made her feel better.

She even smiled as she thought of the blood that will pour out of his mouth with her every punch, with some spurts probably reaching as high as an electric pole.

"Oh, how I want his face to be destroyed by my own fists..."

"Oh, how I want his body to get limp under my punches..."

"Oh how I want his mouth to plead forgiveness for his sins to us..."

The current Wisteria can be said to be at her peak state of happiness, as her mind was busy on thinking of ways that she can punish Alex.

Such imagination made the others look at her with fear, but Wisteria did not care about that.

She cared more on her methods of punishing Alex, all which she ensured to be powerful enough to make him squeal like the pig that he is.

"Hah... Hah... Hah..."

"Oh... Just you wait Alex. Once I see you, I will make you feel all the pain that you gave to your allies..."

But even with the euphoric sensations brought by her imagination, Wisteria’s over-all mood did not improve that much at all, since she’s not actually punishing the real person.

It was only when she’s punching Alex in real life that Wisteria will feel satisfied, a requirement that sadly, is not yet being fulfilled at this point.

"Tsk, imagining myself punishing Alex is not enough for me. I should be punishing him in real life, which I still can’t do because I am still not in the Ancestral Tomb!"

"Argh! What is the matter with all of these people around me? Don’t you want to reach the Ancestral Tomb already? If that’s the case, then you all should start moving now!"

"Huhuhu, come on, come on, you other Travelers. Don’t dawdle on your places and just come near us! I want to reach the Ancestral Tomb already so that I can punch that smug man in his face!"

While she tried her best to keep her rage in, the red-faced Wisteria looked around her as she now focused her attention on the other presences present in the area.

She specifically focused her eyes on the area a few meters away from her, which housed a cluster of people that she felt wary against.

"...."

Even without her scanner beeping signals about their abilities, Wisteria is intelligent enough to know the identities of these newcomers.

Just the aura that they released alone revealed their identities, and their wary stares at Alina made their status even more obvious.

"...."

These newcomers were no other than the Travelers that Wisteria was just talking about, and they showed no intent of leaving this place at all.
