Alter Dimension.
Kupido Town, Lucky Restaurant.
Alex came here early today to fulfill the promise he gave last night to Don and Ben.
When Alex arrived, he was surprised to see that those two were actually there already, even earlier than him.
"Oh, you two are so early!"
They smiled at Alex with dark circles in their eyes.
"We couldn't sleep last night because of excitement, Boss." Don said.
"That's right, that's why we decided to just come early today." Ben followed.
Hearing that, Alex smiled in response.
"Since you're here now, let's go directly to the church and activate the 'World System' of the both of you."
After hearing that, the fatigue on both Don and Ben's faces immediately disappeared.
They excitedly nodded and said, "Okay, Boss!
The three of them left the restaurant and headed towards the Church of Light at the city center.
Not long after, they arrived at the church and quietly entered.
Alex observed the atmosphere within the church as he walked inside.
Behind him, Don and Ben who's following Alex started to feel nervous and excited.
"This is really happening, right? I'm not dreaming, right?" Don muttered.
Then suddenly, Ben screamed from pain.
"Aww!"
It attracted the eyes of the people around including Alex.
Noticing that, Ben hurriedly covered his mouth and apologized to the people before turning his eyes to Don with dark eyes.
"Why did you suddenly pinch my arm, Boss?!" Ben complained.
At this time, Don's hand is still pinching Ben's arm.
Don slowly retracted his hand and calmly looked at Ben, saying, "I just want to make sure that I'm not dreaming."
Ben was stunned hearing that, then with a painful look on his face, he asked, "Then why am I the one you're pinching and not yourself?"
"Of course, because I don't like feeling pain!"
Don said in a 'matter of fact' tone.
Ben was speechless.
In the end, he can do nothing but move away from Don while rubbing his arms.
At this time, a priest approached them and said, "May the God of Light guide you."
In response, Don and Ben hurriedly gathered themselves and bowed, saying,
"May the God of Light guide you, Father."
Alex just watched that but didn't do the same.
The priest took a glance at him after seeing that but didn't say anything.
Turning his attention back to Don and Ben, the priest asked, "For what reason did you come to church today?"
Don stepped forward and respectfully said, "Father, today we are here to ask you to activate the 'World System' for the two of us."
The priest nodded in understanding and said, "If that's the case, then please follow me."
After saying that, he turned around and started walking deeper into the church.
Seeing that, Alex approached Don and Ben, handing them 1 gold coin each.
"Here's 1 gold coin for each of you. Use it to activate your 'World System'."
The two held onto the gold coin tightly as if afraid to lose it and looked at Alex with teary eyes.
"Boss, thank you so much. I will never forget this kindness that you showed me forever."
"Boss Don is right, we will both always be grateful to you. No matter what happens in the future, I will remain loyal and follow you through thick and thin, Boss!"
Alex smirked and said, "Well, if you're that grateful, just make sure that you won't neglect the restaurant."
"Anyway, go on now, the priest is still waiting for you."
The two bowed and thanked Alex for the last time before hurriedly following the priest.
Looking at their back for a while, Alex turned around and headed out of the church.
Outside the church, Alex looked at the sky and took a deep breath.
"Now then, it's about time that I head out towards the capital!"
With light footsteps, Alex left the church and went back to the restaurant.
Then, without wasting time, he used [Portal] and went directly to Kun's Lair.
When he arrived, Alex suddenly sat down and closed his eyes.
He remained still like that for quite some before his eyes snapped open and stared at the entrance of the dungeon.
Finally, after a few seconds, the figure of Ferri that was rushing towards Alex became visible.
Seeing that, Alex smiled, "Come here, Ferri!"
"Woof!"
Ferri started running faster until he slammed into Alex.
Boom!
A loud second within the dungeon because of the impact of their collision.
A couple of seconds later, Alex's laughter resounded throughout the whole dungeon, saying, "You're so energetic today, Ferri!"
"Did you hunt a lot yesterday?"
Ferri nodded its head humanely before barking twice.
"Woof woof!"
"Hahaha, that's good then!"
After the two played around for a while, Alex finally stood up.
Looking at the playful wolf on his arms, Alex said, "Ferri, today I am going on a long trip."
"It will take some time before I go back, so do you want to travel with me?"
Ferri broke away from Alex's arms and stood up straight in front of him while nodding seriously.
His posture seems to say, "Of course, I will always follow my master!"
Alex chuckled, "Good."
"Then let's not waste more time and head out immediately!"
"Woof!"
Once again, Alex used [Portal] and went back to the restaurant but this time, with Ferri in tow.
When he got back, Don and Ben were still not back.
However, the other thugs who serve as waiters and guards are already there.
When they saw Alex and Ferri suddenly appear out of thin air, they were surprised.
But after seeing that it was actually Alex, they calmed down and greeted him energetically.
"GOOD MORNING, BOSS!"
From their tone, you can hear the respect that they have for Alex.
Even though most of them are even older than him, it wasn't a reason for them to not respect him.
That is because they have already tasted how fearsome Alex is first-hand.
So it can be said that they learned this respect the hard way.
