32. Icepick

When the girls went to train, I decided to do something.

Getting on the bus, I picked up the «Archamada Book of Spells». I wanted to secure my Tattoo of Luck, so when I opened the book to the page where the description of the Charm of Luck begins, I tore out all the pages.

I did it as carefully as possible. Now can't even see that there were once any pages here.

I didn't want anyone to know about my tattoo. And here was all the information about her. Even, there was a spell how to remove a tattoo for good. I do not need this.

After getting off the bus and moving further away, I turned into the Heat8 and burned all the pages.

Having regained my human form, I ordered Morgana to delete all the information that I have now burned.

I really didn't want to leave a trace. Anyway, I remembered all this when I read it for the first time.

I prefer to cover all my weak points, and information about a tattoo is a weak point. I will be much safer if no one finds out about this, even Gwen.

When I returned to the bus, the Omnitrix signaled. I knew perfectly well what this signal meant. A new alien has become available.

I sometimes don't understand how the Omnitrix works. Why would a new alien be available to me, right now? How does the clocks solve all this?

Discarding unnecessary thoughts, I activated the watch and looked at the dial.

The silhouette was unfamiliar to me, which is strange because I thought I knew all the aliens from the original Omnitrix.

Is it really a completely new and unacquainted alien to me? This have not happened before. I am bursting with curiosity.

Looking closely at the alien's silhouette, I saw a thin humanoid figure with multiple spikes on its torso and arms. On the head, it seemed, was a sharp hairstyle, like Diamondhead. There were three fingers on each hand.

And that's all I could understand from the silhouette.

We'll have to check everything personally. So I went up to Grandpa and said:

- Grandpa, a new alien has become available to me. I'll go and find out everything about him and practice a little. I'll be back in two hours.

- Good. But don't go too far. - Grandpa said to me.

- Understood. - I said and went into the forest.

After walking a few kilometers from the parking lot, I turned into a new alien. This time, I did it the old fashioned way, otherwise it was already completely rusted.

Everything was as usual. After activating the clock, I selected the silhouette of a new hero. Each time, it becomes harder and harder, because this is already my twenty-first alien. I can't imagine what I would do without Master Control.

Slapping on the clock, I, as always, began to transform from my right hand and my body was covered with a flash of blue light.

After the transformation, I examined myself carefully.

Now it is clear what those thorns were.

My whole body was made of blue ice. And the thorns are ice peaks, instead of hair on the head, there is also solid ice.

For some reason, there was a mask on his face that looked more like a respirator. Why is she needed, I do not understand.

Well, at least not naked. I was wearing a black and white jumpsuit. The Omnitrix sign, as always, was in the center of the chest.

I have not met such an alien in the database of the Plumbers of the Space. And in a past life I did not see this either. But I already like it. The Ice Alien will always come in handy.

It's time to test your abilities.

After an hour and a half, I could already draw some conclusions. But to find out everything for sure, I need to go to the laboratory. Unfortunately, now I cannot do this, I will have to confine myself to what I learned here.

First, as you can imagine, I can manage and create ice. This is also called Cryokinesis.

I can create whatever I want out of ice. And to change my body, though limited, basically only hands. For example, turn hand into a sword or a mace.

I can also use something like Ice Surfing for movement. By the way, very good speed.

Secondly, I do not feel pain. Generally.

Thirdly, I have a pretty powerful regeneration. I can easily grow my hand.

Fourthly, I can change the ambient temperature to create a comfortable temperature for myself. It also helps to weaken enemies.

By the way, I don't know for sure the temperature of my ice, but it is, in fact, very strong and does not melt. But I can easily vaporize it if I need it.

And fifthly, I can infect enemies with a cold virus in order to weaken them again.

That's all I could learn in the field. To find out more I need my laboratory equipment.

Of the weaknesses, I understood only the obvious. High temperatures can kill me.

Most likely, if enough force is applied, then I can be broken into pieces of ice, but, in theory, I have to get back together. If give me time.

In general, I really liked the newcomer. He is fast, agile and strong. An alien with the power of ice, in my opinion, is just fine. I decided to call him Icepick. In my opinion, it is very suitable.

I practiced for another half hour and decided to go back. It's already time for lunch, and I'm hungry.

After 10 minutes I arrived at the RV. As I approached, I saw Ashley sitting and breathing heavily. Apparently she trained her cover and fizzled out.

- Hey. How's it going with the Charms? - I asked, going up to Ashley and gave her a hand to help her up.

- Good. Even more. As you said, the Charm of Electrokinesis really did suit me. He is like my own to me. It is very convenient and easy to use. - Ashley said as she put her breath in order.

- What about the Charm of Telekinesis?

- Also good. Controlling it is a little more difficult and not so natural, but still convenient. And the feeling of flying is just wonderful. - Ashley said with a smile.

Just at that moment, Gwen got off the bus, apparently she heard our voices.

- Yes, I also liked my charms. Especially the Charm of Pyrokinesis. There is a lot can do with it. I even learned to fly, just like you in the image of the Heatblast. - said the happy Gwen.

- This is good. Have you finished the Book of Elementary Magic? - I asked.

- Not yet. I decided to read the Book of Archamada first to learn more about Charms. I especially needed information about the Charms of Resurrection. - Gwen said, shaking her head.

- Were there any problems? - I asked.

- I was missing something. But it's all right now. As soon as I read the book, all my doubts disappeared. And now I understand everything. - said contentedly, Gwen

- Well done then. - with a smile, I said.

- By the way, about the book. There is nothing in it at all about the Charm of Luck. Do you know why? - Gwen asked curiously.

- I'll tell you everything later. - I said.

- Okay. Then we went inside. Grandpa finished cooking. Today there seems to be simple pasta. - Gwen said.

- Is it really an ordinary and not an exotic dish? - I asked doubtfully.

- Looks like that. - said Gwen and went into the house. Ashley followed her and I followed Ashley.

Gwen was right, there was simple pasta for dinner. But the whole point was in the sauce. I think I could smell the squid ink. Well, it doesn't matter, and I ate not that much.

After dinner everyone went about their own business.

Grandpa immediately went to bed. Gwen continued reading the Book of Elementary Magic. Ashley was watching a movie on my laptop.

I decided to fix the Charms on the belts with the girls' costumes.

I have set up special pockets that will hide the charms themselves. I think, not the best idea to shine them. You never know what crazy Magician wants to pocket Charms of Bezel's.

Let them always be with the girls, but no one will know about it.

I finished, just as Ashley fell asleep. So we can go out.

- Gwen, everyone is already asleep. Let's go on a date. - I said quietly to Gwen that she was focused on the book.

- Yes? Is it time already? Come on, of course. - said Gwen and jumped up from the sofa.

We quietly got off the bus and headed into the city.

Due to the fact that it was already dark, artificial light was turned on in the city, this made the city truly beautiful.

First, we walked a bit and looked at the local architecture.

When we got hungry, we decided to buy a hot dog. And of course, everything could not do without robbers. Do we really have such a fate?

Some two idiots decided to rob an old woman. And they stole her purse.

Again, I didn't have to do anything. Gwen threw magic discs in their faces, from which they immediately lost consciousness. And most importantly, everything happened so quickly that no one but me noticed anything.

Old woman went to the thieves and took her bag. Then she hit them on the head with the same bag. Strongly, I must say, she was blown away. There will definitely be a concussion.

After eating hot dogs, we went for a walk. During the walk, Gwen asked me:

- So, why was there nothing in the Book of Archamada about the Charms of Luck?

- I destroyed all information. - I honestly said.

- What? What for? - the girl asked uncomprehendingly.

And, I told her everything. About how I tied the Charm to himself and turned it into a Tattoo of Luck and the rest.

- Clear. But was it really necessary to destroy the only information about this Charm? - Gwen asked.

- It's just in case. But still, I remembered everything. - I said.

We walked for about an hour and then went back. Halfway to the bus, Gwen said:

- Ashley found out that we are dating.

- Yes? How? - I asked with interest.

- She saw us kissing yesterday. - slightly blushing, said Gwen.

- Clear. And what did you tell her? - I asked.

- Everything. I told the whole truth about our relationship. - Gwen said honestly.

- And about ... - I started to ask, but I was interrupted.

- Yes. And about the harem too. - Gwen said and rolled her eyes.

- So what did she say? - I asked curiously, hoping for a positive reaction.

- You don't seem to know? Do you know that she loves you? - once again rolling her eyes, said Gwen.

- It's not hard to guess. - I said truthfully.

- Well, here it is. I said she needed to talk to you first. And only then decide everything. - Gwen said with a shrug.

- You said right. Well then, I'll talk to her later. - I said with a nod.

- Good. - Gwen said without even showing any negative attitude.

After that, we did not talk, but only walked to the RV, holding hands. It was a cozy silence.

When we got to the bus, we stayed outside and kissed for about 20 minutes. After that, we immediately went to bed.
