As Alex posed the question, Autumn’s face turned a deep shade of crimson, a clear sign ofembarrassment. She was at a loss for words, her mind unable to form a coherent response. Nervously,she began picking at her nails, a subconscious action borne out of her unease and anxiety.
“I-I heard you are back, so I came to check on you,” she stammered.
Alex was puzzled by her peculiar and abashed demeanor. He stood up and gently patted her shoulder,inquiring. “What’s troubling you today? You seem different.”
Autumn, who had her head lowered, was taken aback by the man’s sudden proximity. Sheinadvertently caught a glimpse of something she shouldn’t have seen, causing her to gasp in alarm.Next, she swiftly turned away and scrambled to the floor.
Her actions left Alex in a state of confusion, unaware of what had just transpired. Just then, Flynn’svoice was heard.
“Alex, you… you’re…” Flynn’s eyes widened as he glanced at Alex’s naked body. Then, his gazeshifted to Autumn, and a sudden realization washed over him; he became acutely aware that he wasintruding on their private moment. “I’m truly sorry for interrupting. Please, carry on!”
With that, Flynn immediately closed the door and left the room.
When Alex recalled Flynn’s peculiar gaze, he lowered his head and glanced at himself. It was then herealized he was completely naked.
When he first opened his eyes, he experienced a delightful sensation of coolness that coursed throughhis entire body. He hadn’t given it much thought as he attributed the coolness to the FoundationEstablishment Pill.
Alex, now fully aware of his lack of clothing and the fact that he stood naked before Autumn, couldn’thelp but feel a surge of embarrassment. Even with his typically unwavering confidence, he couldn’tignore the blush that tinged his cheeks. Acting quickly, he reached for a nearby bedsheet and hastilywrapped it around his body.
His eyes shifted to where he had been deep in meditation moments ago. As his gaze fell upon theashes, realization washed over him. It became clear to him that his clothes had been engulfed by theflames.
Alex scratched his head sheepishly as he said to Autumn. “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize I had nothing on.I’ve covered myself up now, so you can stand up.”
Autumn, who had been crouched on the ground, gingerly lowered her fingers from her eyes and stole aglance at Alex. To her relief, she saw that he was no longer unclothed. She stopped covering her eyes,but her cheeks still burned with a deep blush.
She tried her best to avoid eye contact with Alex. Her blush intensified when her mind involuntarilyconjured up images of his unclothed form.
Noticing Autumn’s prolonged silence, Alex took the initiative to ease the palpable tension in the room,asking, “Ms. Jones, why are you looking for me?”
“I heard that you had returned, and I thought of coming to see you. Also, my father wanted to invite youfor a meal. There’s a dinner gathering tonight, so he asked me to invite you,” Autumn replied shyly
After explaining her reason for coming. Autumn suddenly remembered that she had accidentally
dropped her phone earlier. She picked it up from the ground and checked it, relieved it hadn’t beendamaged.
“All right, I got it.” Alex accepted the offer as he had not seen Stefan for a long while. There was noharm in meeting up with the man.novelbin
Autumn’s face lit up when she heard Alex’s agreement. She asked apprehensively, “Alex, how did youget such good skin? You seem even more handsome than before!”
Alex was taken aback by her question, and glanced at his arms. Indeed, his skin had become muchsmoother compared to its previously rough texture. However, as a man, he didn’t pay much attention tosuch matters.
“I have no idea. Perhaps it was the aftereffect of the pill, he replied nonchalantly.
“Pill?” Her eyes widened as she pleaded, “Could I have a pill please, Alex?”
Even though Alex understood that every woman wanted to look beautiful, the ingredients required forthe Foundation Establishment Pill were incredibly precious. Even if he had the ingredients to make asecond- grade Foundation Establishment Pill, it was not something that an ordinary person couldconsume.
“I’m afraid it’s not possible,” he replied.
The woman’s initial joyful expression was immediately replaced by disappointment. She left the roomreluctantly, as staying there would only escalate the awkwardness.
Once again, the door was closed, leaving Alex alone in the room. He crossed his legs and circulatedthe Mortal Force within his body. He wanted to assess the extent of his powers after completelyassimilating the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The Mortal Force within his body seemed to flow endlessly. To put it in perspective, the previous energyat the half-Grandmaster level was like a serene lake, while his current energy at the Grandmaster level
resembled an expansive and boundless ocean. The contrast between the two was striking.
