Great Pretenders

Great Pretenders
Chapter 11



In the morning, Alex sits on his bed staring blankly at the door and when it opens, Alex finds that Edward has come to pick him up.


"Today is martial training, hurry to the hall and do the training! Before that, take a shower and wear this uniform!" edward orders him to hand Alex a black training suit.


Alex remained silent with his flat expression, he turned his body and walked towards the toilet, before Alex had already received the training clothes that Edward had given him.


After the door closed, Alex closed the toilet.


His flat expression suddenly changed and immediately sighed, "Huft! How exhausting!" he muttered and he immediately suspected the training outfit and swept the entire section to check the outfit because Alex's other formal attire was attached to a voice eavesdropper, so Alex suspected the black training outfit as well.


But after he examined it carefully, it turned out that none of the sound eavesdropping devices were attached to the training clothes.


"Huf! Steady!" alex muttered, he was happy because he thought of a small plan.


Alex then came out of the toilet after everything was ready, he went straight out of his room and went towards the hall room.


On the way to the hall, Charles and James cross paths with Alex.


"Wow! Black training clothes! That means you've become an expert, Alex?" ask James in amazement.


Instead of answering, Alex ignored James' words and kept walking with his flat expression.


"Hey! You're getting cocky as it turns out, Alex!" hit James who did not accept himself just ignored by Alex.


Despite being hit by James, Alex remains indifferent and ignores James' existence.


When they reached the hall, they all gathered and waited for the direction of Edward the overseer.


"As you can see, Alex is now one of the experts in and not just that! Tasya and Alex come here!" edward's orders to both of them.


While Tasya has just arrived and everyone is looking closely, Tasya who turned out to be an expert with the characteristics of having worn black training clothes just like Alex and the other experts.


"Today is martial arts training! Alex you fight Roger! Tasya you fight Clarissa!"


There was not a single word spoken by Alex and Tasya, both of whom were equally flat expressions.


Alex is faced with another expert named Roger, Roger himself is a man who has a large body and a former soldier, who is, if it were not for his mistake abusing his profession he would not have been able to arrive at this place.


Roger and Alex were already face to face, together with their respective flat expressions.


"Start!" edward exclaims that the fight must begin, Alex with Roger fighting each other while on the other hand Tasya and Clarissa are fighting as well.


With no mercy in their fight, Alex hits Roger's jaw until Roger falls and bleeds, all trainees are shocked to see Alex's ruthless action.


"Since when did Alex become so powerful even against Roger?" james was surprised.


Alex blindly continued to beat Roger strongly so that Roger's battered face was made by him, although Roger was constantly beaten by Alex, he continued to fight Alex without feeling any pain at all.


Even so, the fight was inevitable, Alex and Roger continued to fight just like Tasya and Clarissa, only in this second match of women, Clarissa was superior and Tasya battered made by Clarissa.


Alex ignored Tasya who was beaten even though in his heart, Alex felt excruciating pain.


How could a woman he loved be hurt like that there, not making the heart hurt. Alex doesn't protect her not because she doesn't love Tasya anymore, but this is all done by her because Alex loves her so much.


Alex wants to change this cruel destiny.


The fight is dismissed on the orders of Edward, while everyone just starts their respective fight.


Participants used to fight just normally, unlike the experts who fought brutally and did not seem to have any mercy.


"Hm? Look at you now! So easily ruled! Hehe, your plan of changing destiny can't even be! But, his abilities are quite good! Maybe I should just make it my tool, right?" thought someone.


Martial training had gone on for quite a while until finally the training had finished, it did not feel like it was already noon. Everyone went to the cafeteria to get their food.


Alex took something out of his pants pocket as they all flocked to walk down a corridor.


After arriving at the cafeteria, everything was lined up and it just so happened that Alex was right in front of James. Actually it wasn't a coincidence, it was a stratagem done by Alex.


When taking food, "Alex! Why do you keep ignoring me?" asked James in curiosity.


Alex ignored James, he focused on taking food until he was in the middle, Alex put a paper he had folded under his plate.


The paper left behind was seen by James, there was an inscription on it.


'READ THIS AFTER BEING IN YOUR ROOM ALONE!'


The writing intrigued James, though James had tried to ask back using a head gesture indicating that he asked, Alex remained with his flat expression and did not answer James.


James understood that he was sitting in a normal place to eat while Alex was now sitting at a table with a gathering of experts there.


Although James was sad, because at this time even Charles did not come to the cafeteria. So, James was alone confused because all the other participants did not like James.


James was lonely, until lunch was over. James returned to his room tightly grasping the paper in his hand.


Enter her into her room, the door is automatically locked.


James opened the paper, "James! I'm sorry I had to ignore you! I'm actually pretending to be a tool for this institution! I can only be controlled by an order from Edward! Later, tomorrow night! You will change like me! But, just calm down! Actually we don't change, I want you to act like me! Because I've traded the chips that changed us! We'll be out of this institution once we get the job out!"


The writing ended, James understood. Before he went to sleep, James had already thrown the paper into his closet.


In a room, "Number twelve failed! Tomorrow continues with number thirteen! Hopefully, we can get twenty humans who can be used as tools for us! Ahhaha!"
