Chapter 131: Strange Girl(II)
From the girl's previous actions when she tried to force him to sleep, he could already guess the girl's identity but he didn't want to believe it as he felt it to be very unlikely.
He guess that she could be a phenomenal, very likely an undocumented one but he chose not to believe it because he thought that people like her should be hidden. At least that was his thoughts.
Also, from her following reaction after she failed to out Silas to sleep. Silas understood that this wasn't the first time that something like that has happened.
He was puzzled though. If he's right and he's not her first victim, then why is it that she hasn't been caught even though she's doing something like in the campus ground? Has there been no complaint and at all or... He felt it might be possible that after the person wake up, they lose the memory of what happened and this is how she has been able to go scot-free.
Maybe everything was just his thought and him overthinking but he was curious to find out everything.
After the girl slid open the hidden door, something popped up on the Gear's screen, causing him to exclaim in amazement. A mistaken on his part but he couldn't help it.
What was being displayed on the Gear's screen is what is behind the hidden door. Actually, it's what one would find after they take the elevator in front of them.
The girl looked at Silas strangely. She didn't understand why he exclaimed and she didn't want to ask. All she wants to do at this point, is to take him to her boss and have her solve the mess created.
She placed her thumb on a scanner beside the elevator, and the following moments, the scanner lit up with a green light and a ding was heard from the elevator and it opened up.
"Follow me," She said as she walked into the elevator.
Silas didn't need to be told as he followed behind and also walked into the elevator.
After Silas had gotten into the elevator, the girl pressed a button that has a downward indication on it, and the elevator closed and started descending.
The girl looked at Silas and walked towards a side of the elevator and stood quietly. She wasn't going to give him a chance to make her embarrass again.
Silas saw her action and smiled. His attention wasn't actually on the girl but on something else, two things actually.
The first is the girl's identity that been displayed on the Gear's screen and the second, is where the elevator is taking them.
Using the girl's face and voice, Luna went through every possible database to get her information and identity, and she sent it to Silas.
The strange girl's name is Natasha. She's a just a regular girl studying in Princeton University. There's nothing strange about her or her identity but what complicates everything is her identity as a Phenomenal.
Yes, Silas has confirmed that she's a phenomenal due to what he's seeing on the Gear's screen.
With a curious smile on his face, Silas waited patiently for the elevator to stop. After it did, it opened up and the girl walked out and he followed behind.
"Follow me closely. When we get there, don't look at anybody, I won't be responsible for you if offend someone and they do something to you," She said, and started walking down a hallway that has red ambient light, lighting it up.
The hallway was made of glass, a one-way or privacy type of glass that doesn't allow one to see what's happening on the inside but those inside can see what's happening outside.
They got to the end of the hallway and girl walked up to a scanner, and placed her thumb on it.
The following moments, the scanner turned green and a click was heard from the door.
The girl looked at Silas for what seems to be the final time and turned the handle of the door, opening it.
Immediately, a blasting noise was heard as a massive room that's filled with large number of people, and stretches as far as the eyes could see appeared in front of him.
" Follow me. Again, don't do anything stupid. The people here are not as weak as me. They will decimate you and there's nothing I would be able to do about it," She said and walked into the extremely noisy room.
Silas walked into the room and he was greeted by a huge crowd of people that gathered in a circle around a massive arena that's in the middle of the room. If he's to estimate their number, they would be above hundred.
The massive arena that's surrounded by massive iron structures around it, was occupied by two individuals, two men who looks to be in their thirties.
The interesting part about the individuals is that the two of them are phenomenals!
This is going to be the third phenomenal, with Natasha included, that Silas is seeing and in just one day.
After seeing the arena and the two men standing in it, one needs not to be told what the massive room is.
"Ladies and Gentlemen. For the second preliminary rounds, we have two extremely strong individuals going head to head against each other," A man in something that looks to be a referee's uniform, said with a mic to his mouth.
"On my right side, we have the fire demon, Fernandez!!!!," He shouted and pointed to one of the men.
The man jumped up to height that looks impossible for a normal human and landed. After landing, he raised his open hands in hair and two fist-sized flames light up on it, and he slowly brought his open palms flames dancing on them, to his face, before clenching his fists and extinguishing the flames.
In response to his display, the crowd roared in excitement, with some of them shouting his nickname at the top of their voices.
The referee saw this and nodded in satisfaction. He felt satisfied that the demonstration from the fighter achieved the desired effects he wanted.
"And to my left side, is the one and only... Thor, the god of thunder!!!" He shouted, as he pointed to the second man standing in the arena.
The man that was pointed to, clenched his fist and small tendrils of lightning ran along his arms, with a crackle. The lightning tendrils made their way to his palms and after they had gathered, and concentrated on his palms, he clenched hia fists and a small lightning explosion was heard with a crackle, as the concentrated lightning tendrils struck the surrounding air harmlessly.
The response of the crowd was even more intense as they screamed in excitement and majority of them started shouting Thor at the top of their voices.
Silas saw all this and he smiled, as he muttered to himself.
"Weak."
Silas was still in his thought when he was dragged by Natasha.
"Hey, don't stand around or you might actually get in trouble. Follow me," She said and started dragging him along.
She dragged him until they stopped in front of a luxuriously-designed door. She opened the door and dragged Silas inside.
Right as he was about to walk in, Silas heard the referee shout, "Fight!"
