New York Sanctuary, just as Alaric was watching Sersi fight against the Deviants.
"Hmm? Where is Alaric?"
Clea came out of her room, saw only Amora sitting on the couch reading a book, but Alaric was nowhere to be seen.
"I don't know, maybe he went out to do something." Amora didn't even look up.
Clea pressed her lips together, took a book from the shelf, and sat down across from Amora.
Since Alaric wasn't here, they wouldn't feel hungry even if they didn't eat, so they had no intention of doing anything wrong.
Clea still harbored anger toward Amora in her heart and felt a deep sense of betrayal.
After reading a few pages, she looked up at Amora.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but Clea felt that Amora looked better today than usual.
Every one of her movements was filled with a different kind of charm.
If the earlier Amora had been full of seduction, it had no effect on Clea. She would only think Amora was very beautiful. But now, even Clea felt drawn to Amora.
It was a feeling that couldn't be described with words.
"If you have something to ask, just ask." Amora spoke in an incredibly calm tone, exuding utter laziness.
"Damn it!" Clea was angry inside.
Does that mean she doesn't even know what she did?!
"Didn't you say you wanted to help me?" Clea asked unhappily.
"I did."
"Then why… why are you acting like this today!"
When Clea remembered Amora sitting in Alaric's lap in pajamas, she couldn't help but blush!
How is that any different from wearing nothing?!
Clea never expected Amora to be that kind of person!
That she actually used her absence to seduce Alaric!
Ah! So infuriating!
"I promised to help you, but I also said I wouldn't make the first move."
Amora glanced at Clea.
"You!!!" Clea's eyes widened in shock at those words!
How can you say something so shameless!
"From the day Alaric kept me, I've belonged to him. So, whatever I do, it's not strange, right?"
"But…"
Clea mumbled, speechless.
Helpless, she just leaned back on the couch and covered her face with the book, as if giving up.
When Amora saw this scene, the corners of her lips lifted slightly.
Showing that Clea was truly a little girl.
A mature woman like her would have taken the opportunity long ago.
See, the one who made the first move already got to the meat, while the shy ones are still standing still.
That's the difference!
After a long time.
"Um… how did you do it?"
Clea suddenly peeked her eyes through a crack in the book and asked uncertainly.
"What?"
"How… how did you get Alaric to accept you?"
Clea asked shyly.
"You really want to know?" Amora suddenly smiled wickedly.
Clea pressed her lips together and mumbled something so quietly it was barely audible.
But Amora heard it.
"Actually, it's really simple…"
"What? What?!"
"You just need to…"
Amora suddenly leaned forward and whispered into Clea's ear.
"What!!"
When Clea heard what Amora said, she suddenly sat up, her face blushing to her ears!
"You… that… shameless!!"
Clea couldn't take it anymore, she ran back to her room.
"Hahaha~"
Amora laughed sweetly when she saw Clea's reaction.
Little girl, and you still want to compete with me, a witch who's lived for more than two thousand years?
Amora said, no chance!
Even though it was her first time, she had enough courage and thick skin!
Bang!
Clea slammed the door hard, threw herself onto the bed, and began to roll around.
"How can this… ah!!"
Clea said that Amora's method of a nighttime ambush was truly unacceptable!
Clea shyly buried her head under the blanket, her whole body burning.
"What if that really could happen…"
A soft whisper came from under the covers.
"Jane." Alaric returned to the laboratory.
"Alaric, is the matter resolved?" Jane ran over and asked.
Daisy and Professor Erik also looked up, waiting for Alaric's answer.
"Of course, I already took care of those monsters, don't worry."
Alaric reassured them.
As for the Eternals and Deviants, he didn't say anything.
So they wouldn't worry even more.
After all, this was another planetary crisis.
Not to mention the dormant Celestial in Earth, there was also the upcoming judgment of the Celestial Arishem. If that wasn't handled properly, Earth would once again face the threat of destruction.
So Alaric decided to follow Sersi and the other Eternals, to first find the dormant Celestial, and then take action.
That way he could also see who was good and who was bad.
"That's great~" Jane sighed in relief.
Both Daisy and Professor Erik felt relieved.
They looked at Alaric and thought how Jane's boyfriend was truly incredible!
If it weren't for Alaric, who knows how many monsters were hiding beneath London?
If they all dug themselves out, what would they do then?
You know, London doesn't have a permanent superhero.
"Jane, do you want to come with me to New York?" Alaric asked.
"But the work I'm doing isn't finished yet. Let's wait a bit longer, okay?"
Jane looked at Alaric gently. She wanted to go to New York with him right away, but a sense of responsibility made her refuse for now.
"No problem. You finish your work first, then let me know. I'll wait for you."
Alaric agreed.
"Mm!" Jane rested her head on Alaric's shoulder, her heart full of happiness.
Jane had never been in a relationship before, because she thought it would interfere with her work and distract her.
After all, astrophysics doesn't finish overnight, it demands a huge amount of time.
That's why Jane threw herself into work and neglected having a boyfriend.
But luckily, Alaric not only didn't ask for too much, but constantly helped her, even taking her to witness countless magical wonders!
To enjoy different landscapes!
That made Jane feel that the greatest happiness in her life was meeting Alaric!
"Have you eaten? Shall we go to dinner together?" Alaric suddenly asked.
"Aren't you in a hurry to go back?"
"Don't worry, I don't have anything urgent right now."
"Mm! Let's go to dinner!" Jane said happily.
"Darcy, Professor Erik, want to come with us?" Alaric offered.
"I won't intrude on your date." Erik waved his hand.
"And I'm done being the third wheel!" Darcy also refused.
Even though she often joked in front of Jane, in this she was considerate.
"Let's go." Jane pulled Alaric outside.
On the other side.
Ikaris went to find Sprite, and Sersi told Dane her identity.
"So… how long have you and your flying boyfriend been together!?"
"Uh… maybe five thousand years?" Sersi answered awkwardly.
"Wow… that's a really long relationship!" Dane was so shocked he didn't know what to say.
"In any case, it's time for me to go, Dane."
"Alright."
Dane sadly watched as Sersi left.
Even though Sersi was an Eternal who had lived for… thousands of years, they had only been together for a short time.
Besides being shocked by her identity, Dane still loved Sersi very much.
After their parting, Sersi returned to her apartment and met Ikaris and Sprite.
"So, something is happening with the Earth." After contacting them, Sersi became suspicious.
"We need to find the others from the tribe."
