"Hmph!" Cassandra snorted. "Just say you won't tell me. There's no point saying cryptic words."
"But I am telling you…" Alex chuckled. "The reason you find it cryptic is because you'll have to stumble on the truth yourself."
"Whatever…" The Catwoman sighed. Naturally, she knew Alex was right, but it didn't make it any less annoying.
"Alright. I have to deal with something real quick. Return with him once he awakens."
"Is it something serious?" Cassandra looked towards the Sol system, curiosity evident in her tone.
"Nah… not really. Something is happening outside the protection sphere and I have to go check it out." Alex said. "It won't take long. See you later."
With that, his presence disappeared, leaving the catwoman and Zol alone in the void.
Cassandra turned back to Zol, her thoughts lingering on her power boost. 'Having power without understanding them is like having money without financial literacy. Maybe that was the reason I lost my universe.'
