Chapter 38 - RUMORS

Ethan woke up. Lily, next to him, sleeping peacefully, he got up and got ready for school, he got some of his sister's clothes from her room and put them next to the sleeping Lily, even though her upper body(except arms, neck, and head) is gold-covered.

When he was ready, he woke up Lily, then got her to wear the clothes, then he told her to wait at home, and that he would return later.

At school, Ethan was sitting at his desk, waiting for the class to start.

Minami: "Hey! How's the electric dad doing?"

Ethan: "Let's not talk about it in school…"

Minami: "Oh come on, no one's actually listening, if they were they would've known that Selene is a cheater."

Some girl: "I know, right?"

Both Ethan and Minami looked at the girl with a deadpan look.

Ethan: "And who are you?"

The girl: "I am your biggest fan!"

The girl pounced onto Ethan's desk, her expression filled with admiration and extreme excitement, and she was getting a bit too close to Ethan.

Minami: "Back off."

Minami was stoic. She lifted the girl with her powers and made her go back to her seat by dropping her onto her desk. Both Ethan and Minami were unimpressed. The class was loud, filled with teens talking, some jumping around, others fighting.

Some idiots, probably the ones who were fighting, went to Ethan; they all had a smirk on their faces.

Guy 1: "Well. Let's see if you are as strong as they say!"

The students in this school created their secret system, if you are a woman, the prettier/cuter you are, the higher your stance, same with guys but with strength instead of looks(Shocking, I know, but it's more like a system that is hidden, so the strong guys don't beat up the weak ones, only the strong fight the strong).

Ethan got up, lifting his eyebrow at the guy before scoffing and smirking. The guy immediately tried to punch him, but his punch was ineffective. It didn't hurt Ethan.

The guy removed his fist from Ethan's face and was shocked at how unfazed Ethan was, so he decided to throw another punch, but Ethan caught it, his palm stopping the fist.

Ethan: "wanna see a magic trick?"

The guy: "No?"

Ethan: "Good, Abracadabra!"

Ethan used his powers to make a large amount of electricity flow into the guy's body, causing him to get electrocuted, but not enough to die.

Ethan let go of his fist, and the guy fell unconscious. The others stared at him in disbelief; the whole class, which was filled with yelling and noises, was suddenly quiet.

At lunch, Ethan decided to sit at a bench in the school yard, but that was after he got 5 takeaway burgers from a nearby restaurant. He was able to use his super speed to sneak off campus.

Minami arrived at the yard and sat next to him, sighing. She looked over at Ethan, then shifted closer.

Minami: "I looked for you everywhere… wait, how'd you get those burgers?"

Ethan: "I have my ways. Want a burger?"

Minami shook her head, and at that moment, something floated from the sky. At first, he thought it was a short version of Minami, but then he realized that it was Lily. How did she get here??

Lily flew onto Minami and hugged her. Minami giggled as the small lily attacked her with a hug.

Ethan: "You guys are oddly calm about the fact that a child, OUR child, is here at school, and we are trying to keep it hidden."

Minami looked at Ethan, then she sighed in disappointment. She looked at Lily, then pushed her off before telling her.

Minami: "Lily… Honey, can you go home and wait until we are done?"

Lily: "No!"

Ethan: "Lily. Go home!"

Lily: "Nuh uh!"

Ethan's brows furrowed, and he felt his heart squeeze, probably from annoyance… Maybe.

Ethan: "Yuh uh!"

Lily: "Nuh u-"

Minami: "Enough, we are serious, Lily. Go home."

Lily: "Okay, fine!"

Ethan groaned in annoyance. Lily floated then flew away, seemingly back home, but the real question was, how did she get here in the first place?

In a bush somewhere was a paparazzi, not any but the same fan girl from earlier.

Ethan and Minami didn't notice the hidden presence. Ethan continued to eat his burgers, and Minami was talking to him, venting about how boys keep staring at her even if she's already taken.

The fangirl snuck out of the yard and into the school. After lunch, Ethan was sitting around on his desk when Minami walked up to him and shoved her phone to his face. He read it… What… The…-Careful there-.

It was a post on the popular platform, instakilogram, the title was "Love child of the loved hero and his girlfriend."

The post also had an image, it was an image of Lily hugging Minami while Ethan was standing in front of them, and that image had text, reading:

"The famous 'Electric Slayer', Ethan, and his girlfriend, Minami, turned out to have a child. The name is still not proven, but it was heard to be 'Lily'. The child seems to have powers like her mother and father, and she looks exactly like a love child between them."

Ethan gave Minami her phone back before giving her a "We are cooked." smile. She sighed before sitting at her desk. The rest of the students were talking, some gossiping and looking at Ethan and Minami, seemingly about that post.

At that moment, the principal talked through the speakers, requesting Minami and Ethan.

Meanwhile, the spaceships just passed Jupiter…
