Alex’s eyes shot up a bit, the mont he saw the description of her ability.
’So it’s called eyes of chronos. And with it she can see fifteen seconds into the future?’
’That honestly looks really promising. If I were to copy her ability, that ans I’ll also be able to see so seconds into the future. And if I para venture break through to Rank B.... The number of seconds I can see into the future and most of its possible outcos will increase.’
’If I can combine this with Deathfrost Blooms... It would literally be extrely beneficial in a battle.’
He stared back at the Desire ter and nodded his head. It’ll only be a matter of ti before he achieves tonight’s quest.
Alex’s attention was then snapped back to the TV, due to the way the ani character was shouting while getting obliterated.
"I never really thought that you were the type to watch ani."
"And what type of movies did you think I like to watch?"
"Maybe sothing with more gore and horror. You know, that kind of stuff."
Doris shrugged and said casually with a mouthful of ice cream.
"Well I do like those kinds of stuff. But I lean more on the ani side. They are like the peakest of entertainnt ever. Nothing even cos remotely close."
Alex looked surprised.
"Oh? I really didn’t expect that soone like you would be such a big ani lover?"
"Yeah, well you better believe it. Especially this fight right here, it’s legendary."
Alex nodded honestly.
"Agreed."
"So what’s your favorite character in the show?"
"Mine? I guess that would be the tall guy wearing the light brown clothes with long black hair." Doris said while scooping another spoonful of ice cream into her mouth.
"How can you like the guy? Don’t get wrong, he’s great and all. But he literally gave his enemy a healing potion to heal... My favorite is the tuff guy. The guy’s such a badass."
Doris slowly turned towards him with narrowed eyes.
"What did you just say? Well I won’t argue with you over your poor choice."
"Poor choices? The guy literally carries the entire series with pure aura alone."
"Soone that loses half his fight." Doris argued imdiately.
"Yeah but he loses while looking cool," Alex countered confidently.
Doris looked at him like he had lost his mind.
"The main hero is stronger, kinder, funnier, and actually gets the job done, after they finish whooping your guys butt."
Alex scoffed.
"Yeah but at least my character has so dignity and pride."
"The main hero has dignity too!"
"He literally lets his enemies go like it’s a bargain sale."
"Because he has a good heart!"
"Because he’s stupid you an."
Doris nearly choked on her ice cream.
"Oh no you didn’t just call him stupid."
"Oh yes I did." Alex shot back with a grin, while leaning back against the couch. "Like who the hell keeps giving second chances to most of his villains, when it’s clear as day that they would never change."
Doris set her bowl down on the table with a dramatic clink, before turning her full attention to him. Her baby face that was usually indifferent, was now alive with passionate disagreent.
"Look. Kindness is not stupidity." She insisted while jabbing a spoon in his direction. "It’s what makes him better than everyone else. He fights for his friends and the world, without needing so arrogant grudge to motivate him. anwhile your guy over there only gets stronger because he’s obsessed with being number one. If you ask I’ll say he’s just being insecure."
Alex laughed, genuinely enjoying the fire in her eyes.
"Insecure? That obsession, young lady, is what pushes him to break his limits each ti. anwhile all your hero has is plot armor and that goofy smile."
"Because he believes in people!" Doris countered, her voice rising. "He sees the good in everyone, even the bad guys."
"And that’s why I prefer my character. He doesn’t let his enemies walk away to beco stronger. My guy would rather die than bow his head."
Doris stared at him for a long ti, before suddenly giving a smirk.
"Oh now I see it. You like the tuff guy because he’s edgy and dramatic. Admit it."
"Maybe I do," Alex admitted with a chuckle. "But at least he has style. Your hero’s whole gimmick is just yelling about friendship and powering up."
"Hey! The yelling part is like one of the good parts, okay!" Doris protested while lightly shoving his shoulder. "Forget it, soone like you wouldn’t get it."
The mont her small delicate hand touched his shoulder, Alex felt her body jolt a bit, as if she had touched a live wire with low power. Alex almost wanted to grin with joy. That small subconscious action proved that the Aura was already slowly breaking down her walls.
He checked the Desire ter panel at the back of his mind and smiled as the numbers moved higher.

The progress was slow, but steady. And though Doris wasn’t exactly the easiest of targets, the combination of late night ani binging watching, ice cream, and healthy character argunt about who was best, was lowering her guard better than anything else could.
They continued arguing back and forth for nearly twenty more minutes, with none refusing to back down on who was the better character.
At one point, as unbelievable as it sounded. Doris had even stood to dramatically reenact her character’s iconic pose, before bursting into laughter at herself. Alex even joined in, and the sound of their laughter filled the room.
Alex had to admit that even though his plan was just to keep Doris there till she succumbed to the Aura’s effect, he was actually enjoying his ti with her.
Who knew that the sa baby faced girl with one of the most detached faces he had ever seen, and a heart that wouldn’t hesitate to kill if necessary, was actually fun to be around with.
Eventually, the show ended on a cliffhanger. Doris flopped back onto the couch, breathing slightly heavier from all the excitent and sothing deeper that she couldn’t quite explain.
"See?" She said while pointing at the TV to distract herself. "That’s why I love this show. Every scene always has you itching to watch the next."
Alex nodded while turning to look at her.
"Yeah I’ll admit, it was really good. You know, you’re actually a pretty fun person to be around, at least when you’re not in serious mode."
Doris glanced at him and felt a heat burning in her core. She pressed her thighs together tightly to suppress it and picked up her nearly empty bowl of ice cream.
She took a spoon of ice cream to calm herself down and heard the grumble of Alex’s stomach, before rembering that she hadn’t offered him a single taste. So she scooped up the last spoonful and offered it to him without thinking.
"Here. Peace offering. Even if your taste in character is questionable."
Alex accepted it with a smile, and deliberately made sure their fingers brushed together, causing her to tighten her legs again, as a faint blush appeared on her baby face, but she quickly looked away.

Alex looked at the rapidly rising figures on the desire ter with satisfaction. The Aura of seduction was working beautifully.
Doris occasionally stole short glances at him with desire filled eyes before shaking her head vigorously and drinking from a glass of water on the table, trying to clear her head.
’No Doris, don’t even think about it. He is Miss Nyx man, that ans he’s a no go area.’
As they continued watching the next episode, the tension between them had thickened. Doris’s breathing had grown a bit heavier than before, and she kept shifting in her seat to suppress the stupid feelings in her body.
Alex anwhile waited for the perfect mont to strike. He couldn’t exactly initiate anything yet, maybe unless he was ready to expect a tight slap, and ruin all of his hardwork.
During a particularly intense fight scene, Doris leaned forward excitedly, accidentally making her new bowl of strawberry ice cream tilt dangerously in her plump thigh.
Alex, seeing the perfect opportunity provided by the universe that looked like it was on his side today, pretended to reach over at the sa ti to grab the remote.
He accidentally knocked the bowl of ice cream in the process, causing so of the lted ice cream to spill directly onto her upper thighs, right where her shorts ended.
"Ah...!" Doris gasped, startled.
"Oh shit I’m sorry!" Alex said quickly, looking really apologetic like he made a mistake. Then without giving her ti to react, he leaned down with a concealed smirk on his face, and used two fingers to scoop up the lted ice cream from her aty thigh in one smooth motion, making his restless hands brush past her inner thighs.
