All I want is some blood (2)
Alexander left the office with his head down
He felt Frederic's eyes following him, so he took a deep breath and exhaled so as not to close the door forcefully and break it.
He closed the door quietly and then started walking
"So, have you finished your work..." He was greeted by Rustin, who was waiting for him outside the office
Rafael and his group were there too
Alexander passed them and started cursing in a low voice "It's just a small bottle of blood, did I ask you to give me a full liter?
Damn you, you old miser, wait until I'm stronger than you, I'll force you to give me a few liters of blood a day..."
"What happened to him?" Angelica asked as she walked a few meters behind him
"Just ignore him..." Rustin shook his head. "He's always saying things that don't make sense."
Alexander was moving quickly without a specific goal
Because he was thinking of someone who could get some blood from him
He tried to get some blood from Frederic, but that bastard refused
Now he has to find someone else
It must be the blood of someone of level four or higher
The blood must be from a human because that is one of the requirements for the potion
But where will he find someone with these specifications?
"By the way, that man with sunglasses came to ask why you came into the principal's office." Rustin's voice came from behind Alexander
Alexander's steps stopped and his eyes widened
Jeff?
How did I not think of this?
Alexander took out his phone and called Jeff without delay
------------------
"Hmm..." Jeff was sitting on a park bench, frowning. "This is definitely a problem."
"That's right…" Alexander, who was sitting next to Jeff, replied in a sad voice
"Wouldn't it be a problem if your family found out about this?"
"I don't care. If my family doesn't support me in this matter, when will they support me?" Alexander responded angrily
"Are you ready to stand against them for the sake of the person you love?" Jeff asked hesitantly
"Yes, I'm ready for it..." Alexander's face was filled with determination
Jeff remained silent, but he was impressed by Alexander's loyalty to his love
Alexander took out a small ten milliliter vial. "All I want is a few milliliters of blood."
"Will this be enough?"
"It's just a symbolic matter, so there's no need for a large amount."
"Okay..." Jeff nodded. "We have to go to the hospital to get blood drawn."
"There is no need for that..." Alexander took out two syringes from his jacket pocket, then took out medical cotton and a disinfectant for the wounds.
"..." The corners of Jeff's mouth twitched
Why does it seem as if Alexander was expecting him to accept this from the beginning?
Alexander looked at the bottle of blood with teary eyes. " Thank you..."
Jeff was pressing on the medical cotton to stop the blood flow from the wound created by the injection. "There is no need to thank me, I wish you success in your love."
Jeff was glad that Alexander wasn't thinking too much about that evil organization chasing him
If Alexander panics because of this, it will put an additional burden on them in trying to calm and reassure him.
"Now excuse me, I have something important to do." Alexander bowed lightly to Jeff and quickly left
----------------------
"What happened there to cause such a drastic change in mood?" Angelica whispered, looking at Alexander's back in confusion
Alexander had a bright expression and a happy smile like a child who got his favorite candy, in contrast to his previous expression, which looked miserable.
Angelica couldn't understand this person at all
He had been wandering around all day without a clear goal
First, he went to the principal's office and entered there alone under the pretext that he had something personal to discuss with the principal
Then he asked to meet Jeff and the two went to a secluded place in the park to talk
Now Alexander said that he would go to the office of one of the academy's instructors to talk to her about something important
Curiosity almost killed her to know what this important thing was that had him wandering around all day for it
She glanced at her brother and Boris
But they were silent with an incomprehensible expression
It seemed like they didn't know what was going on either...Angelica couldn't help but sigh
Nothing she planned went as it should have, because Alexander's actions were not consistent or predictable at all. Therefore, it was difficult to know Alexander's goals or future movements
All he was doing was wandering here and there, eating, or hanging out with Rustin
Doesn't he have goals or ambitions to work towards?
----------------
" I will help you." Christina said in a steady voice
"instructor!" Alexander looked at her affectedly
Christina nodded, placing her palm on Alexander's head and rubbing it gently. "How could I let my apprentice stand around so desperately? Even if your family doesn't stand with you, I will help you."
I will make sure to give this woman a gift one day... Alexander swore in his heart
And so Alexander obtained the second bottle of blood
Alexander walked out of Christina's office with a triumphant smile
But he noticed that Rustin was sitting on the ground while Rafael and his group were standing aside and looking at him with pity.
Alexander approached Rustin and got down on one knee. " What is the problem."
Rustin looked at him with miserable eyes. "The grades for the semester exam have arrived."
"Oh..." Alexander replied faintly as he took his phone out of his pocket
He had a habit of leaving his phone on silent, so he often received messages and calls and did not answer them
The academy was following an advanced system. Test results were sent via e-mail messages that were given to every student as soon as he registered in the academy.
Alexander opened the message but his face remained neutral even after seeing the exam results
Rustin tried to peek at Alexander's result
His grade level was average. This is a clear decline from his level in previous months, because he spent a large amount of time training with Alexander, which left him less time to study.
He thought Alexander was facing the same problem, because he had never seen Alexander study or even open a book
The thought of someone suffering the same fate as him made him comfortable a little bit
But Rustin's face froze as soon as he saw Alexander's grades
They were all perfect grades
Rustin returned his eyes to Alexander's face. " how?..."
Alexander shrugged. "It's not as difficult as you think."
Rustin's face collapsed upon hearing this
He used to spend all night studying, and yet he could not reach the level of grades of Alexander, who spent most of his time eating.
Seeing Rustin's miserable state, Alexander sighed
He understands this boy's feelings, because he suffered the same thing in his previous life
All that matters is that he was able to develop the skills of memorizing information during his years of wandering in the multiple worlds because he had to memorize different types of herbs and monsters.
Therefore, he did not face any difficulty in his current studies, even though he did not like mathematics and it still gave him headaches
But he was satisfied because there were no languages in this world
Languages caused him unbearable pain
He had to learn dozens of languages from different worlds
But the strange thing is that most of the worlds he visited had a unified language
This made him remember the nights he used to spend studying languages to pass exams in his world
He felt very bitter
He could only curse those scoundrels who decided to build the Tower of Babel
Did you seriously have to build that damned tower?
Because of your ridiculous desires, I cannot sleep like the rest of humanity at night because I have a language exam tomorrow
Yes, you fools, because of you I am forced to learn some languages that I don't even know how to use, and all thanks to you
The wave of anger he was throwing was relieving some of his bitterness so he could return to reality and start studying again
Alexander shook his head to clear these thoughts
Now is not the time to remember the past
He must prepare the new potion
It's time for the rite of passage through Heaven's Gate
