Chapter 31: CH.31 Offering Alice an Attribute

After a little while Alice knocks on the bathroom door.

“I’m done changing.” She said to me. 

I step out of the bathroom and see Alice in the navy dress. She even makes the simple dress look cute. Some people just have it easy. Well for her, it’s only in terms of appearance. 

“Could you hold onto this for me?” Alice asks as she presents me with the hoodie I made for her.

“I can, but why?” I ask.

“I’m afraid that father will confiscate it and hold it hostage, so he can force me to study extra hard.” She tells me.

“He really is afraid of that prophecy, isn’t he?” 

“You know about it?” 

“Yes. Henry told me yesterday.”

“I see. For some reason father is sure that it will happen during his lifetime. Even though the prophecy was made 150 years ago. And with your appearance he is even more sure. He says things like, ‘With a system support holder the prophecy will come to be.’ and ‘With Brian’s arrival the time is soon.’ He thinks you were given system support to help us face this issue.”

“It could be. I’m not saying I can take down a lesser behemoth as I am now, but I think if I get the right monsters I could.” I tell her. Ideally I would just play a spell that destroys a target monster, or maybe even something like Raigeki. That should theoretically kill even something like a behemoth in one shot.

“Are the monsters you can summon really that powerful?” Alice asked.

“I’m not completely sure. But in the legends called anime I have heard of them, these monsters have even gone up against gods. And won.” Even if that is stretching the truth a little bit. But I think anime antagonists like Darkness and Don Thousand count as gods. And they were beaten by Yugioh monsters. In a duel specifically, but again close enough.

“I have never heard of these legends.” Alice said. “Is it a rare legend that is not told often?”

“I think it might be a regional one. My parents are the ones that introduced me to it. Then someone else told it to me.” Or my parents bought a tv and Yugioh was on air. Not that I watched the newer seasons from the tv. Internet is a thing and it has anime. 

“I see. I might have to ask my teacher if he has heard of these legends.” Alice said. After a quick thought she continues. “Please keep good care of that.” She said and pointed at the hoodie. “I’ll go back to my room.”

“Sure.” I responded. Then I remember that I want to talk to her about gaining an attribute by installing a card onto her. Or would that be in her? “But would you like to open some packs with me first? We’ll have to do it fairly quickly, but I think we have enough time.”

“Can we?” She asked, seeming slightly excited.

“Sure.” I tell. “I get more pack tokens every morning so I can open packs.”

“Let’s do it then.” Alice says having risen from her gloom. Good. Now she might be willing to get an attribute later.

We sat down on a sofa in the room. Alice is sitting on my right side. I open my skill with “Pack opener open” so that Alice can see it as well.
