Nix's eyes widened at what he read at a glance.
'What the f*ck!' He cursed, a cross popping vein making its way to his forehead.
All 3303 points he had worked for were all reverted to 0?
Looking at his stats he wondered what was reconstructed apart from the increase in his level and the weird ranking he got.
Rolling his eyes, he made a mental note to go over the stats thoroughly once he was alone.
Right now he had bigger issues to solve and that involved the male in front of him.
A smirk on his lips as he felt alive once more.
[Trait usage: Charisma in effect]
[With every minute comes a deduction of 2 points from your health stats]
'Well, that's new.' Nix could slowly see what the system spoke on as reconstruction.
With that seen, he would have to be more conscious of his timing when using this and any others that could be in the same category that could have a toll on his other stats.
"Alex, we aren't your enemies, you can trust us." He said calmly with a smile.
Alex felt a strange calm wash over his body, slowly his head nodded in agreement.
[Trait usage: Charisma deactivated]
The glow in his eyes reverted, he let out a sigh, he had managed to do that without using up a minute.
'Sucks to be you, system!' He blew a raspberry to an imaginary system that felt cheated by what he had done to bypass the interface.
Lank took a step back, remembering when this had been a bane to him. This reminded him of the time when Miss Galena had acted as weird as Alex did.
Obsidian was more than curious about what Nix did, surely this couldn't be a feat that fire rankers could do. This only boosted his drive to stick with Nix.
Lumina scoffed, unfazed by the strangeness. "Look here, Alex, whether you think we are the enemy or not, I don't f*cking care. If you can't trust us, then your loss!"
Nix, Obsidian, and Lank had their mouths slightly gaped at her outburst, she had rounded up all they had said in a tiny explosive sentence.
"When you're done calming his shit down, you know where to find me, Nix," Lumina said with a sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose. "I can't stand this anymore or it might be tempting to slit his throat or something."
Alex flinched at her words, his eyes widened in horror at the unthinkable words that spewed out of her mouth.
He began to wonder if he had disturbed calm waters by his actions. He had wanted to justify his initial anger but the more he thought about it, Nix had stopped the others from treating his attempt of shooting himself in the leg if he had tried to attack first.
'They saved you from the raenz, they can't be as you think. Think straight, you stupid blockhead.' Alex slapped his cheeks to get a grip on himself.
"You better watch your back! I got my eyes on those set out to look for trouble for no solid reason!" Lumina snapped while she used her hand to make a slit throat gesture.
Her green eyes glowed brightly and glared at Alex for an uncomfortable time that forced him to look down momentarily.
'Such a scary glare!' Alex thought, making sure to keep his head lowered until she left as she had said earlier.
"Nix, if there's trouble, I'm just three rooms away." She blew a kiss his way.
With that said, she stomped her feet to her room, unable to take watching this strange guy act unthankful for their gesture of kindness.
Once it was certain that she had left, he let out a sigh of relief even he didn't know he held.
"That went better than expected, don't you think, Nix?" Lank chuckled.
"Yeah!" Nix exhaled. "I was expecting knifes flying or lightning but she did quite well for keeping her cool while it lasted."
'You call that keeping her cool?' Alex grimaced at their interaction.
Alex gulped and turned his attention to Nix who looked smitten and the opposite of what he felt.
This was the first he had come to realize something was going on between those two. If he wanted to maintain his head, he would need to be in the good books of this male who could probably hold his lot against her.
"Are all your females in the academy like this?" Obsidian pointed in the direction where Lumina had stood earlier.
First, it was the strange preferences and energy that Luna had that had drawn him towards her. Now it was the crazy and threatening personality of Lumina that kept him in awe.
"Nope, we got sweet beautiful angels like Gia, not all are dev–"
Bam!
Nix hit Lank before he could complete his sentence, he couldn't stand him referring to Lumina in such a way while he was present.
"Mind your words asshole." Nix hissed.
Lank held his head, whimpering. "How could you let a girl come between our beautiful friendship born of two handsome-looking guys?"
Nix clicked his tongue, wondering how he had been able to tolerate Lank for so long with his tongue.
Obsidian watched, feeling a little out of place.
Ahem!
He faked a cough to get their attention before they were sucked into the conversation that they forgot he existed.
"You two seem to forget something... or should I say in particular–someone!" Obsidian narrowed his eyes and nodded in the direction of a confused and timid Alex.
"Oh... him." Lank's lips drew into a thin line.
