"Do you think he's a mutant, Professor?" Jean asked curiously, as she still couldn't hear Alex's residual thoughts.

Of course, just in case she opted not to actively read Alex's thoughts, as that might alert him and invite unnecessary hostility.

Professor Xavier looked at Alex thoughtfully. He was surprised that he was feeling the same thing as Jean about Alex's mind, as he couldn't hear anything even if he released some of his telepathy control.

Considering that his telepathy was several times more powerful than Jean's, it already demonstrated how powerful Alex's basic mental defenses were.

But unlike Jean, Professor Xavier's curiosity made him decide to take a quick peek into Alex's mind, to make sure he wasn't a threat.

Using mental power, Professor Xavier found it strange that invading Alex's mind was easier than he imagined. But contrary to what he imagined, he still couldn't see Alex's thoughts, and he was in a dark corridor.

Confident in the strength of his telepathy, Professor Xavier started to follow the corridor wondering what could happen, until he felt that a large truck tire was falling towards him!

Looking around, Professor realized that he was surrounded by these truck tires!

Without thinking twice he turned around and tried to run away to take as little damage as possible, but still a big tire hit the Professor in the back. As he was floating, the Tire made him fall to the ground, which happened to be full of pieces of wood with iron nails pointed upwards, which caused great injuries to the Professor when they trapped the rubber of the tire holding his back to the ground.

Despite the pain, with a little mental power the Professor pushed the tire that pinned him to the ground and went back the way he entered Alex's mind.

With his power, the Professor was confident he could pass through this tunnel fast enough to be barely hit by those tires, but he knew that the more mental power he used, the easier it would be for Alex to detect that he was in his mind, so the Professor preferred to get out of Alex's mind and keep things as they were.

Upon returning to the real world, the Professor felt his mind a little tired. Despite being hit by two weak traps, it still caused some mental stress for the Professor.

These traps were copied by Alex from Fortnite Save The World, the Fortnite Tower Defense mode that Alex played in his previous world. Using the knowledge of Occlumency he created the trap corridor which worked exactly as he planned.

If the Professor saw a big wall in front of him, the probability of the Professor trying to break that wall bit by bit was very high, but seeing an open corridor to the inside of Alex's mind, he decided to follow the corridor, which was overloaded with traps.

The Tire traps in the ceiling and the Nailed Boards were just the most basic traps Alex placed at the beginning of the hallway, as they wouldn't take as much work to repair and would be enough to kick out weaker mentalists. The deeper the opponent went, the more powerful the traps.

Jean saw the Professor's tired expression and understood what he had just done.

Worried, she looked at Alex and saw that he was talking to the other mutants as if nothing had happened, which made her sigh in relief.

Mutants were already very discriminated against, although he didn't know they were mutants, Alex was one of their few normal friends. If he was offended by the Professor's intrusion, she would be very angry.

In fact, Alex noticed the Professor's invasion, but he chose to ignore it and let the Professor be the first test subject for his Occlumency defenses, and as he imagined, that was perfect!

He made these defenses to deal with Anna's powers, which were as raw as a point-blank cannon shot, while the professor's invasion was more subtle, like multiple shots from a silenced pistol with infinite ammo.

As much as the two attacks represented danger, the damage Alex was preparing to deal with Anna was much greater than the Professor's.

"One day I will teach you!" Evan said excitedly to Alex.

"Of course! I'll think that's cool!" Alex responded by smiling positively to Evan's offer to teach him to skate someday, after Alex said he had never ridden one.

"How about, want to come with us, Anna?" Alex turned towards her and said with a smile.

Anna didn't think twice and nodded, happy with the invitation. "I want!"

The one who wasn't happy was Bobby, who was getting more and more furious with Alex, who even managed to arrange a date with Anna in front of him, something he never managed!

"Hey guys, let's play darts!" Kitty squealed excitedly as she brought out a large target and a box of darts.

Hearing this, the young people got excited and approached.

Anna looked at Alex and asked worriedly. "Do you want to play?"

Alex didn't understand why she was worried and was about to accept it, but Bobby spoke first.

"Or are you scared?" Bobby said with a cocky smile.

Alex: ????????

Confused, Alex looked at Anna trying to understand where he offended Bobby for him to act this way towards him.

Anna just sighed, knowing Bobby wanted to prove his fragile masculinity in front of her and try to humiliate Alex.

"Let's play, sounds like fun." Alex just shook his head and ignored Bobby, just looking at Anna as Evan was already heading towards Kitty.

Anna was a little worried. As an X-men, practically everyone there received combat training, both to deal with hand-to-hand combat and to deal with ranged combat, that is, their aim was very high.

Especially Bobby, who had the power to control ice, as he normally threw ice from afar, his aim was even better than most of the other students.

While she didn't care about Alex being worse than other people at the prank, she also didn't want Bobby to use it to try to humiliate Alex, who was her guest.

"Well, you seem confident, do you have any secrets?" She asked noticing the expression on Alex's face that didn't look like he was just going for the fun of it.

"How about a bet?" Alex smiled, showing teeth that Anna found very cute.

"What bet?" She asked as she crossed her arms, already imagining what he intended to bet.

Seeing that when Anna crossed her arms, her already big breasts got even bigger, Alex thanked her for not taking off her sunglasses and looked away before answering. "If I win, you'll take a ride with me in my car."

Anna heard Alex's bet and really liked the idea. If he'd asked her this without a bet she'd probably have taken it, but since it was a bet, it made it a lot more fun for her. "Okay, what if you don't win?"

Alex put his hand on his chin and thought for a while. "How about I let you make a wish? After all, I already made my wish in case I win."

Anna thought for a moment and nodded excitedly. "But it'll just be a car ride, no big deal, okay?"

Alex knew that even though Anna was shy, this request was not due to her shyness, but rather out of fear of hurting him with her powers.

Then he showed confidence and answered seriously. "Don't worry, I won't do anything you don't want."

Hearing that, Anna had a small smile on her face and said as she walked towards Kitty. "So let's go!"

Bobby who wasn't far away heard their bet and got even angrier, to the point where the temperature around him was rapidly dropping.
