Primordial Soul's Rebirth Chapter 7 - 7 – The Truth

Alex was sitting in a relaxed position while a renowned S-rank Raider, Alice, moved towards him with annoyance and so anger.

"Oh? Why do you think so?" Alex asked in a relaxed tone while raising a brow when he heard Alice say, 'Yes, I can'.

Although it made him look more handso, Alice also blushed. But she also beca more annoyed thinking that he was also using a seduction ability.

"Because I am stronger than you." As she said that, she also moved her hands towards Alex's neck, thinking of lifting him by his neck. But she was stunned the next second.

"Are you now?" Alex asked with a smile while holding her wrist that was just in front of his neck.

Alice knew that although she was not physically strong like other S-rank Raiders she was a mage. But she knew her strength was not weak enough to not be able to move her hand away from his grip.

Not unless he was really strong, so, she decided to get serious, even if she needed to blow up the whole room. So, she used her mana and created a dark orange and yellow mixed fla, it was different and stronger compared to normal flas.

But when she saw the next scene she was left dumbfounded since her strongest power, her flas that even the strongest of the S-rankers feared, was not able to harm the man sitting in front of her. Worse yet he was able to control her flas sohow.

"Is that all?" Alex asked while he looked curiously at his palm that held the flas that Alice used.

Even though he didn't use his Zone, how could he control Alice's fla? Tell can your own limbs harm you without your permission? No, right? That's what happened.

Even though Alice's flas had the potential to beco sothing that he wouldn't be able to play with like this, without using the Zone, right now, though, they are just so flas that are slightly stronger than normal flas (From his perspective).

However, things were different for Alice as she understood that the person in front of her was not soone she could defeat alone, at least not alone. So, she tried clicking the secret button on her phone with her free hand only to get her phone taken by Alex, which made her helpless.

"We can't have you do that right now." He said while finally releasing her wrist. Alice rubbed her wrist since it hurt a little being held so hard, while she also started thinking of making plans to run away.

Even though she was short-tempered and hot-headed all the ti, she was also a guild master and she knew how to deal with different kinds of situations.

She understood that she would end up miserable or get killed if she tried fighting the person in front of her, so, she decided to run. Just when she was racking her brain to find a way to escape from here, she heard a sigh.

"Alice, can you please listen to for a while?" Alex asked Alice gently, which caused her to beco bewildered as she rembered perfectly that her brother also called her like that.

"I am not your enemy, if I were then I would have already killed you." It was then that Alice realized her situation and also understood what he ant, so she nodded her head.

"Sit down first since it's going to be a long talk." Seeing her nod Alex said and Alice nodded again and sat on the bed as she did before, then she looked at Alex.

"All right then, let ask you a question first. Do you know why Alex left the orphanage?" Alex asked and started making plans on how to make her believe that he was Alex and not soone in disguise since he could understand what people would think in her situation and position.

"No," Alice replied with a frown, not understanding the aning behind this question since if she knew then she wouldn't have co here to ask the sa thing.

"It was because of you." But when she heard Alex's next word, she looked at him in suspicion not understanding even a bit of what he said.

Seeing this Alex continued, "You thought of him as your brother, right?"

Seeing her nod her head and smile a little rembering her ti with Alex, he said.

"And are you sure he also thought of you as his sister?" Alice's reply was instantaneous without any hesitation.

"Of course, we both treated eac-" Alex cut her words and asked again, "Are you sure?" This ti Alice understood what he was pointing at and she fell into deep thought.

Slowly she started realizing sothing, till now he had never ever called her sister and he also gave her presents with letters saying that he loved her.

She always thought that he was saying that as a brother and sister not like a man and woman, but now she understood.

"Looks like you understand." Alice stared at Alex for a while thinking how he knew this but nodded in the end.

However, she still didn't understand how that would suddenly make him leave the orphanage as he had always had feelings for her then why did he leave now?

"He saw your latest interview." As if reading her mind Alex said causing Alice to beco surprised but then as she rembered the interview, she understood what happened and why he left the orphanage.

"Where is he now?" Alice finally asked a question. But the question caused Alex to sigh.

"I told you that he died rember?" He asked Alice and she bit her lips trying to stop herself from doing sothing stupid.

She didn't want to believe that Alex had died and wanted to get any information she could out of the man in front of her, but she knew she couldn't do that since she was the weaker one.

"You don't believe , do you?" Alex asked again and without her saying he understood what was going through her head.

Even though he didn't have the mories of previous lives he still had their experience engraved inside his soul, so, understanding what soone was thinking based on their expression was not that hard for him.

Alice just stared at him and didn't say anything else, causing him to sigh. He thought it was really troubleso dealing with this woman, but he still got up from the chair causing Alice to beco tense, and then moved towards the drawer.

Sophia sighed looking at the scene but didn't say it out loud just thought in her head as she didn't want him to rember anything before the ti was right.

When Alex arrived at the drawer, he took out the tube that contained the leftover Awakening potion and tossed it to Alice who caught what was thrown at her.

"Do you know what that is?" Alex asked and she nodded in response. Then he completed his words, "That is what killed him."

Hearing his words, Alice again looked at him with doubt and suspicion. Seeing this Alex nodded internally and understood that no one would believe what he said, after all, it was an Awakening potion and not poison.

"Do you think he was an Unawakened person?" Unlike last ti, Alice didn't reply instantly, not wanting to make the sa mistake again and instead, she asked.

"Was he a Raider?" She asked, not believing it since she had never seen him using any power and if he was a Raider, he would have at least told her about it.

"No," Alex continued, after looking at her puzzled look.

"His power was too strong for him to control so it stayed dormant in his body." His words made her shocked. Now, she understood what would have happened if what he said was true.

"D-did he?" She asked not being able to control her tears as she understood that maybe her brother had really died and that too because of his own power.

"Yes, that's what I have been since the start." He replied with a sigh. 'Finally, the first part is done.' He thought and started preparing for the second part.
