Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 727 Four? and Five

This woman looked unimposing by herself, but the valiant look on her face and the gallant way that she held her body allowed her to exude a charm, one that even Wisteria could not help but be infatuated with.

Add the sudden familiarity that Wisteria felt with this woman, and the former started feeling extremely interested on her...

"According to Alina, this woman is Traveler Talia, who is actually the sister of Traveler Delia. She is said to use the power of the Void and Martial Arts, two abilities that blend well with one another...."

Wisteria was visibly feeling light this time, as if her sighting of Talia had removed most of her worries.

Her presence also made Wisteria feel somewhat better, and she can even say that her negative outlook had also improved by a significant percentage.

The combination of these sudden changes was obviously suspicious, but the current Wisteria seemed to have not thought of that.

Her attention was just fully focused on Talia alone, and it seemed that no obstruction could break her out of her stupor...

"Now Alina did not exactly tell me that much about Talia, but judging by the way that she moved, she could just be as righteous as Delia."

"And if my judgement could be stretched thin, I can dare say that Talia is an even more valiant person than Delia."

As she stared at Talia for longer, Wisteria could already feel that her goodwill towards Talia had just continued to increase. And it increased to the point that Wisteria could hardly feel any anger towards this woman at all...

"..."

Wisteria perfectly knew that these sudden pleasant feelings could be caused by a hidden ability that Talia had just activated, but she found herself unable to extricate herself from these feelings.

She just allowed herself to bask in Talia’s glory, until she had almost forgotten everything else.

"I don’t know how much more valiant Talia is compared to her sister, but with what I know from Delia, there is a high possibility that Talia can be a great ally for us...."

"After all, not only were we abandoned by the corrupted Alex, we also had been Delia’s ally before."

"Such close link was something that Talia the Righteous will not ignore, and we could maybe use it to our advantage..."

As she immersed her mind inside her warm feelings for Talia, Wisteria started to focus on the benefits that she could obtain by just allying with Talia alone.

To Wisteria’s surprise, there is actually a lot of benefits that her group will have if they choose to ally with this woman and her group.

They can obtain better chances of winning, and there are less risks of being betrayed.

The only problem will just be-

|Bzzt!|

|Bzzt!|

|Bzzt!|

"Ah s**t! Did I just find myself falling under a charm spell? F**k, how could I have fallen on such a simple ruse!"

Talking about the benefits through allying with Talia sounded nice to Wisteria, but after one small zap from her bracelet, Wisteria’s addled mind had broken out of the spell that she found herself placed in.

More specifically, Wisteria’s gadget zapped her free from Talia’s powerful Charm...

"Ah, now I see it. This Talia woman actually charmed me? And I did not even notice it, to the point that my lifesaving bracelet was forced to zap me out?"

"Argh, this is irritating me! I don’t even like women, and she almost made my swing that way!"

Thanks to the timely move of her bracelet, Wisteria was now free from whatever ability was Talia was using on her.

Just the painful voltage zap from the bracelet was enough to rouse Wisteria’s mind, and the way that it entered her whole body made her almost immune to this mind-altering power.

"Argh, these Travelers really are dangerous!"

Aside from affecting her whole body, the bracelet also continued to zap Wisteria for longer, in hopes of preventing this woman from being affected by the same spell again.

This resulted on a rhythmic wave of pain that coursed through her body, a sensation that Wisteria was not willing to experience anymore.

"Ow, ow, ow! When can you stop zapping me, my bracelet? This s**t hurts a lot, in case you don’t know!"

"Ow, ow, ow, I said stop! Can you just stop?"

"Hey, when will you stop?"

"Will you just stop if I stop observing Talia? Fine, suit yourself!!"

Wisteria was naturally angry after finding out that she had been ’attacked’ by Talia, and she also felt that venting her rage on the latter is just proper at this point.

But with her bracelet disturbing her at every single moment, and with Talia seemingly prepared from any sudden attacks, Wisteria had to hold herself back from attacking.

"Tsk, your sister might be a decent person, but that does not make you someone that I will spare. So just you wait Talia. I will deal with what you did to me today, and I will make you realize that you cannot just screw with me!"

Suppressing her emotions, which was boiling red-hot again this time, the pissed Wisteria forcefully moved her body as she moved her head away from Talia’s vicinity.

Now, Wisteria focused her attention on the 5th and final Traveler who arrived in this area.

"Sigh... so the 1st Traveler made me feel wary. The 2nd Traveler made me want to hug him. The 3rd Traveler made me want to punch him, while the 4th Traveler made me want to beat her up..."

"Now let’s see what will this 5th Traveler make me feel..."

The 5th Traveler stood alone by himself, with none of his Companions accompanying him.

This was not surprising to Wisteria, as she perfectly knew who this Traveler was.

"So out of all the Travelers present in this area, this is the Traveler that I should be the least worried about..."

More specifically, Alina told her all about the pitiful status of this Traveler...

"This lonely man is Traveler Xavier, a weak Fifth Stage Being who wields the unstable and inaccurate Fate Magic, and the inferior version of Alina’s Space Magic. Wow, just these powers alone show how mediocre he is compared to the other Travelers." Wisteria thought as she tried to not feel sad at the way that this man looked.

This proved hard for her to do, as the man just looked so pathetic, so cowardly, that feeling sad for him can be considered as a normal reaction this time.

"This man is so pathetic, that his Companions were all stronger than him. And to make that even worse, these Companions were all killed while this man is busy on running!"

"Bah, this man did not even see how his Companions were killed by Alina. He just hid like the coward that he is, and he did not even do anything to avenge them!"

"...And even when Alina and the others were free to be attacked today, this cowardly man did not make a move. He is just standing here with us, acting like he’s a loner who does not want to be disturbed..."

"Ptooey, why are you still trying to act cool here, Traveler Xavier? Do you seriously believe that we will think highly of you just because your Companions were killed and you act like an emo now?"

"Of course not, so don’t expect us to give you the respect which you obviously don’t deserve!"

Needless to say, Wisteria does not feel any kind of threat coming from Traveler Xavier, and with the way that he continued to act today, this treatment of hers will not change.

Unless this man does something to change his demeanor, Wisteria will always deem him the least dangerous out of her enemies.

"If this man does not even try changing himself, then he is doomed to be treated like trash. Well, it’s not like I care, since having this man become this useless is good for me."

"After all, one trashy Traveler reduces the amount of enemies, and that is a great boon for me already!"

[[[Author’s Note: What a poor dude. What did he deserve to be treated this way? Well, he’s a coward for one, although being coward could be his only way of surviving. He’s just at the Fifth Stage, so even if he fights, it will be hard for him to win.]]]
