Chapter 194 Fellowship
S-rank skills.
It could be said that they are the apex in terms of skill for the people in Alter Dimension.
Just by having even one S-rank skill is enough to guarantee a good life in Alter Dimension!
This is enough to show just how valuable an S-rank skill is!
Of course, this is still based on who we are talking about.
For the common people, it was widely known to them that S-rank is already the highest rank.
However, those people with status are aware that there are skills higher than S-rank.
As for those who have such skills?
No one knows.
But the only sure thing is that there are only a few of them.
Anyway, just because S-rank skill is not the highest rank doesn't mean it's no longer valuable.
No, S-rank skill is without a doubt a valuable skill, no matter who it is.
The power that it holds could turn a whole battlefield upside down if used right!
That is the source of Glen and Kris' shock.
Alex, a young man who has only been around the Alter Dimension for more or less a month already holds such a terrifying skill.
That's unbelievable!
You have to know that even Kris, the only child of Rolando, the current head of Raven Family, only had one A-rank skill when she first went to Alter Dimension.
And that is all thanks to her family!
If she didn't have the help of her family, maybe she would still be fumbling around with only a few low ranking skills in her hand at that time.
Now, hearing that Alex, someone who doesn't have any support, suddenly got an S-rank skill?!
What's more, it's already a well known fact within the Raven family that Alex is someone who possesses power that is beyond his level and tier.
Just how monstrous can you become?!
Seeing the turmoil going through the minds of Glen and Kris, Alex decided to just keep his mouth shut.
After a while, Glen and Kris gradually recovered from the shock given by Alex.
Glen stared at Alex with meaningful eyes saying, "You're really full of surprises, Alex."
To that, Alex could only scratch his head innocently.
Ignoring Alex, Glen leaned back on his seat and crossed his hands together.
With a contemplative look on his face, he said, "Your idea sounds good. Since you have such a skill, let's immediately start the search."
Saying that, Glen looked at Alex seriously, saying, "After I hand over the virus to you, you can go with Belle and her team."
Then after saying that, Glen suddenly added,
"Or if it's more convenient with you, you can also go around on your own. Just make sure that if any abnormalities occur, you should report first and wait for reinforcement."
Hearing all of that, Alex understood that this is Glen's way of taking care of him.
Nodding his head, Alex without hesitation said, "I'll go alone first. I'm more used to it and I think I can go around faster that way."
. ..
After leaving the restaurant, Alex went to a dark alley beside the restaurant.
Looking around, Alex made sure that there's no one around before suddenly disappearing in place.
When Alex appears again, he is already back in his house on Earth.
"Ugh, really, nothing beats home!"
Alex dropped his body on the soft sofa and suddenly, dust flew all over the place.
Poof!
"Cough cough, what the hell?"
Alex muttered while covering his nose with one hand while he fanned the dust away with the other.
After a while, things finally settled down.
Rubbing his nose with a frown on his face, Alex said, "I guess I've been gone for too long, huh. Dust has once again accumulated all over the house."
Shaking his head, he said, "It can't be helped, I can only clean up before I go to sleep."
Without wasting any more second, Alex immediately started with his sudden general cleaning of the house.
For a while, the sound of Alex moving the things around the house and throwing trash out was the only sound that could be heard around.
Even the crickets didn't dare to make any more noise since it's already noisy enough.
By the way, Alex didn't
Angelica shook her head, "There's no problem, Brother Zero."
"But, it's just that…"
Angelica didn't finish her words and only a sigh came out of her mouth.
Confused, Alex urged her to continue, "It's ifjust what?"
In the end, Angelica finally opened her mouth and spoke her mind out.
She looked straight into Alex's eyes and seriously said, "It's just that you already did a lot for us, Brother Zero."
"You've been doing things for us that I don't really see how it can benefit you in any way."
At the end of her words, she whispered, "I don't want me and my brother to become burdens to you…"
Alex's movements paused and he just continued staring at Angelica for a few seconds.
After a while, Alex signed and said, "Hais, why are you even thinking about such things."
He walked closer to her and rubbed her head.
"I'm doing all of this out of my own volition. I decided to take you siblings in because I saw myself in you."
"Despite all the hardships and unfairness in the world, you still tried to fight in a fair way. You were able to make use of the things around you to provide for yourself."
"I saw all these qualities when I first saw you outside the tower, making Ferri an attraction."
Saying that, a gentle smile appeared on Alex's face as he said, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about becoming a burden."
"Since I'm sending you guys to school, you just have to study well and in the future, you will then become capable enough to provide me with help."
"Isn't that right?"
Hearing that, the depressed look on Angelica's face gradually became brighter.
Nodding, Angelica looked at Alex and said, "You're right, Brother Zero!"
"Since that's the case, if you let me study, I promise that I will do my best to become you someday!"
"Good, good."
Alex looked at her with a satisfied smile.
After that episode, Alex headed back to the restaurant with the kids in tow.
By the time they arrived at the restaurant, there was no long line outside and the sign [Closed] was already placed on the door.
But the lights inside the restaurant are still on, meaning, there are still people inside.
Without stopping, Alex directly walked to the door and opened it.
Tingling~
A bell behind the door sounded, alerting those that are inside that someone has entered.
"I'm sorry, but we're already close. Please come back tomorrow."
Ben, who's standing behind the counter, said without looking up.
Alex didn't bother about his words and looked around the restaurant.
Alex saw that beside Ben, there seemed to be no one else here.
From the looks of it, the other workers already went back to their respective places, leaving Ben here for some reason.
Alex turned his eyes to Ben and saw that he was holding a paper and pen.
Seeing that, Alex thought, 'He should be busy with calculating today's finances.'
Thinking of that, Alex decided not to bother Ben.
But since Ben didn't hear a reply from the 'customer' who entered nor did he hear it leave, he decided to stop what he's doing and lift his head up.
The next second, surprise covered Ben's face, "Boss?!"
Hurriedly, Ben walked out from behind the counter and approached Alex.
"Wow, it's really you, Boss!"
Alex nodded at him, "Yes, I'm back now."
Ben looked visibly overjoyed just by the wide smile on his face while looking at Alex.
"Good, it's great that Boss finally came back!"
Alex looked at Ben and said, "How did things go while I was away? Did anything important happen?"
Ben immediately nodded, "Yes, Boss! Something important indeed happened."
Alex signaled for him to go on with his eyes and Ben started talking.
"In the past week, an employee of Golden House named Kara came here multiple times to discuss with the property owners around us to buy their properties."
"Currently, she has already bought every property in our surroundings."
Hearing that, Alex nodded in satisfaction.
"Good, Kaya did a great job."
Ben suddenly got confused at Alex's words and asked, "What do you mean, Boss?"
Seeing the confused look on Ben's face, Alex smirked, "Do you still remember the talk about our expansion?"
"Of course, Boss. I've been waiting for you to hear an update about it actually."
Saying that, Ben immediately pieced things together and his eyes lit up.
"Boss, you mean, that Kara person has been buying properties around us all because of your expansion plan?!"
"Uh-huh."
Alex casually nodded, confirming Ben's guess.
Ben was shocked to learn all this.
From what he knows, the area that's been bought around the restaurant is huge.
It's as big as 5 basketball courts placed together!
