chapter.4 take me home(2/2)

"Miss Witch? Do I make you feel like a witch?"

As a super newbie who has only been in the ranks of Extraordinaries for a few days, Sequence 9 "Soothsayer" Klein Moretti, who is at the bottom of the food chain, still doesn't know the meaning of the word "witch" in the extraordinary world.

, but this did not prevent him from observing her words and expressions, and tasting something bad from the subtle changes in her expression.

"No, it's just..."

"Speaking of which, there are also people who call me similar names...well, I am referring to some people with extraordinary powers in this world. They always call me, 'Witch'."

The girl's words were spoken in a language that Klein had never heard before, but at the end of the sentence, she switched back to the Rune language and pronounced the word "witch" clearly and clearly.

"Could it be that people in this world, whenever they see a woman with extraordinary power, assume that she is a witch?"

Klein vaguely sensed something from her tone, and he cautiously probed.

"...Have you ever dealt with other people with extraordinary powers before?" And judging from her attitude, the process was probably not very pleasant.

Sure enough, she frowned.

"Rather than talking about it, it was more like a fight... They didn't intend to have any communication with me at all, and they started to fight. I had no choice but to fight."

They...are still fighting multiple Beyonders...I don't know who the other party is. The official Beyonders shouldn't attack a weak young girl indiscriminately, right? Then maybe she encountered

Are you a member of some extreme illegal organization? For example, the Secret Order...

Klein's thinking couldn't help but wander a little. He led the girl into the living room without saying a word and motioned for her to find a chair to sit on. He went to the kitchen and poured two glasses of water, then returned to the living room and put this

A simple reception was placed in front of the girl.

She thanked her politely first, then picked up the cup and took a few sips of water without any warning, which made Klein murmur in his heart.

If he had just poured some medicine into the water, could he have knocked people out and thrown them out of the house?

"Okay, sir, you obviously have a lot of things you want to ask me about, right? Why don't you take this opportunity to ask me all of them. In exchange, I would like to ask you about information about extraordinary powers in this world, um...

Even if it’s just basic knowledge, it doesn’t matter, I just need a reliable reference object as a benchmark.”

"...I thought you would be more tactful." Klein was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that she would negotiate with such a straightforward and frank attitude... It was as if she was proposing a deal to him.

It is true that as she said, he does have a certain interest in her, and it can even be said that he is looking forward to it.

If after a period of time, Klein learned more about the extraordinary world, he might not be in such a mood now.

In front of the star wanderer who calls himself a "visitor from another world", he will realize that he is facing extreme danger and unknown, and it is absolutely impossible to maintain the current tense mood with a little hope.

Yes, Klein must admit that he is looking forward to something, such as...

Go home. Return to his home on earth.

But it wasn't enough, he couldn't just accept everything she said, and he didn't trust her enough to reveal his secret to her.

Therefore, he must speak carefully.

After making up her mind, Klein stopped talking and waited for the other party's next move. However, she did not disappoint his expectations and responded quickly.

It seems that she doesn't have as many worries as he does... Klein thought.

"Euphemism or straightforwardness are just a means of expressing intentions. I think what we both need now is a straightforward, precise and efficient way of communication, instead of endless testing, concealment, and testing again, so we can relax a little.

.I have no ill will towards you or the things you own." As the girl spoke, she raised her hand to unbutton her robe and placed the large gold-rimmed white robe on the back of the chair, revealing the

Cool and sporty sleeveless top.

Seeing this, Klein could only stare blankly at his water glass and focus on her words: What a weirdo... He was wrapped in a thick robe in the scorching sun outside and didn't feel hot even though he didn't take it off.

It was ten degrees indoors, so I took the initiative to unbutton my coat...

"So, sir, now you can ask me questions, and I will try my best to answer you." The girl crossed her hands on the table and read to him in a gentle tone.

Many complicated thoughts flashed through Klein's mind. He hesitated for a moment and chose one of them.

"...How should I call you? I can't keep calling you 'Ms. Magician from another world', right?"

Then he was really worried that one day he would accidentally let the word "witch lady" slip out of his mouth again.

"Are you asking for my name?" She blinked in surprise, and after a moment, her green eyes turned a few times before focusing on Klein's face again, "Well,

You can call me Alice."

"...Why did you think about it for so long? It's a pseudonym, right?" Klein was really almost unable to complain.

"It's a pseudonym, but I can also assure you that my name here is Alice and I will not use any other name." She admitted this generously.

For some reason, Klein always had an indescribable and wonderful illusion: Alice traveling to another world... This reminded him of the fairy tale called Alice in Wonderland before the time travel.

Is it because there are similar stories in the "different world" she came from? Or maybe she just happened to choose a simple and easy-to-remember pseudonym?

No longer thinking about this, Klein took the initiative to tell her his name before she asked him.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Alice, I am Klein Moretti."

The "divineer" and the "magician" from another world, who had exchanged their names, finally got to know each other and began their first communication.

Unknowingly, the setting sun set in the west, dyeing that half of the sky with a golden-red color.

Melissa came back from school and saw clearly the living room lit by lamps through the door, so she took out her key and opened the door without knocking or ringing the doorbell.

Her gaze suddenly paused as she swept through the entrance. Melissa raised her head as if she was aware of it, and looked towards the stairs where footsteps could be heard. She saw her brother Klein walking down from the second floor, with a slightly troubled expression on his face.

weird.

He obviously knew what Melissa had discovered. The small and exquisite pair of women's short boots were still displayed in the entrance hall.

Melissa didn't think much about it - she knew that what she was thinking about was definitely not within the scope of "overthinking". After all, it was the first time that her silly brother invited someone to his home... and the other person was a lady!

"Klein..." As a younger sister, but inexplicably caring about her mother, Melissa thought for a while and decided not to put too much pressure on her brother for the time being, so she said, "After you fall in love, remember

Save money when you have money, and don't be stingy when you need to spend money... At least, don't let her think that you are a man who is unwilling to pay for her and the family. Well, so don't give me pocket money for the time being, you have to

Think long term, save your money, prepare for a future engagement...I mean, if possible."

Klein's business-like smile completely froze on his face.

He knew...he knew he would be misunderstood! And the misunderstanding was so outrageous! He simply couldn't imagine what it would be like when Benson returned home!

Although it took a lot of effort for Klein to convince Alice to stay in his room and not go out and wander around, he felt that everything was worth it.

Until now, it has been worth it.

But how could he guess that his sister was so clever! She even just saw a pair of women's shoes at the entrance and she immediately planned an engagement for him!

On Melissa's side, seeing Klein just smiling absentmindedly, she suddenly felt strange and took a few steps closer and called him.

"Klein? Are you okay?"

"...Still, okay, I'm fine." Klein regained his composure, walked down the stairs with a forced smile, took his sister's schoolbag and put it on the table in the living room, trying to find something to say to change the subject.

"By the way, what do you want to eat for dinner tonight? I'll come back and cook it after I go out to buy groceries."

Melissa looked up at him again: "You can also choose to go out to eat. Benson and I can just eat whatever we want... Go to the restaurant with your girlfriend. This is the time to use the money. But

Get up, aren't you going to tell her to come down? It's almost seven o'clock now." She had to admit that she was beginning to be curious about her brother's vision and criteria for choosing a mate.

Why did you bring it back again...

Klein tried his best to act: "She, she's not feeling well and is resting upstairs... And, Melissa, I have to be honest with you, she and I haven't reached the level of relationship you think we have yet.

,only……"

"Is she resting in your room? Is she feeling unwell?" Melissa knew that. Although there were spare guest rooms in the rooms on the second floor, they had not had time to buy new quilt covers, sheets and pillows for them, so she could

The only room where the three siblings sleep is.

Since the guests Klein invited to his home were resting upstairs, they would only be in his room.

Faced with his sister's eyes, which seemed to be getting weirder, Klein swallowed and tried to explain: "Yes... but don't overthink it, we are just..."

But before he finished speaking, Melissa interrupted him: "Klein, I hope you know what you are doing - there are some things that you should take responsibility for once you have done them, instead of deliberately avoiding talking about them.

Otherwise, what should your future wife think of you? She will only think that you are not responsible enough and do not consider the future of the family. Even if you have children, you will have the idea of ​​​​divorcing... Klein, you know, as long as you are not a believer in the Storm

Most extreme families like the Lord's will attach great importance to and worry about the feelings of their wives, and there are more and more independent women in society now. We can't let her have the idea of ​​'she can live better without you', understand.

?"

No, it's not... Why do we fast forward to our future wife? Are we thinking about the risk of divorce? Are we going to worry about the education of our children next?

Sister, you are too precocious...
