Chapter 24 Moving On

With Butler Frank on the lead, Roland and Stacey toured the whole villa for over an hour due to how massive it was.

It has its own pool, playing room, master's room, guest rooms, leisure room and many other rooms that Roland was not even aware that they existed. Unfortunately, most of them, including the huge garage, were still empty. Roland would need to fill them up or else this huge villa would look deserted.

At this time, Roland was sitting on a luxurious sofa along with Stacey. They decided to take a rest as touring the villa was quite tedious. With his enhanced physique, it was no problem for Roland, but he saw that Stacey was getting tired, so he decided to take a rest as well.

Butler Frank served them a cold and fresh orange juice as Roland's eyes wandered around the high ceiling of the leisure room.

Earlier, Roland was already aware that there were over forty people working to maintain cleanliness and order of the villa, including Butler Frank, Housekeeper Stella, and their daughter, Janine, who also worked here as a maid, but only during her free time as she was still in college.

Butler Frank and the others were very professional. Roland knew that their pay should be very high due to their standard. It was fortunate that the System would shoulder all the villa's expenses, else, he was sure that his 'meager' fund of less than 500000 Global Dollars would be gone in an instant for the worker's wages alone.

As they were just resting leisurely, Roland decided to take a look at his profile generated by the System.

Roland noticed that he already had 130 Face-Slapping Points available after face-slapping the guards earlier.

After he saw the price of the level 2 Physique Enhancement Potion, Roland already noted to himself to be thrifty when it comes to dealing with Face-Slapping Points.

Now that he already has over one hundred Face-Slapping Points, Roland decided to browse the Face-Slapping Store again.

Roland's eyes immediately skipped the Level 2 Physique Enhancement Potion as he knew well enough that he could not afford it yet. His eyes were instead attracted down to the Level 1 Soul Enhancement Potion which was still priced at 50 Face-Slapping Points.

The Physique Enhancement Potion brought him a lot of wonderful effects including his change of body structure and the fact that he was now stronger and more agile than before. His endurance was also top notched, recalling the fact that he did even sweat that much after his exercise earlier this morning.

Now, Roland wondered what kind of effects this Soul Enhancement Potion would bring him. From its description, the Soul Enhancement Potion revolves around his mind or mental ability. Roland reckoned that once consumed, he might be able to perform a lot of wonderful things.

Roland could not wait to buy and consume it. However, now was not the time yet as Stacey and Butler Frank were still present. It would be rude for him to leave Stacey here either as it was him who invited her to accompany him to visit the villa.

"What do you think of this villa?" Roland suddenly asked Stacey who was in dazed.

"I-It's good," Stacey woke up from her daze as she replied while sipping on the juice gently. What she was thinking, or rather, fantasizing about before, only she would know.

"I also think it's good enough. I just have a little problem about its size, but well, I can manage," he said humbly.

However, that was not how Stacey and Butler Frank heard it. They heard that he was 'disappointed' about the villa's 'small' size and not the other way around.

Stacey shook her head while Butler Frank was thinking a lot of things inside his head at this moment. He knew that the owner of Pure Dew Villa was rich, but he never thought that he was this rich. It was on another level.

Although he might have dressed simply right now, his face and well-defined body was more than enough reason to believe that he came from a rich family.

This time, Butler Frank promised to himself to not be negligent on his duty.

'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N(ov)elBin',

After this little episode, Roland thought that they should get going already. It just so happened that Stacey wanted to head home for emergency matters, so he wanted to hitch a ride to move his things over from the rental apartment.

However, when Butler Frank heard that, he was opposed to the idea, and instead offered that he would fetch his things himself.

Roland thought for a moment and recalled that there were actually no valuable things still left behind in the rental apartment, so he decided to just leave them there. However, he did order Butler Frank to pay the rent for this month and give a tip to the landlady as well.

Roland was also a little 'afraid' of going back there, afraid that the landlady might cause him trouble. So, Butler Frank going over as his representative works for him too.

Now that the matters regarding the rental apartment can now be considered as finished, he decided to head over to the fast-food restaurant near the school where he was working part-time before.

Although he was only a dishwasher there, the manager of the fast-food restaurant was good to him, so he decided to come over and bid him a proper farewell, and 'resign' peacefully.

After giving him the address, Roland and Stacey drove away with her sedan.

Stacey dropped him off near the school. After her sedan drove off and disappeared from Roland's field of vision, he finally walked towards a particular direction.

The fast-food chain he was just a few blocks away from the school.

As today was Saturday, and the fact that it was still Christmas break, the school looked deserted and only a select few students could be seen walking around the campus. In fact, he even saw one of his classmates walking around inside.

Roland passed by the entrance of the school but did not try to enter. The memories that happened yesterday at the entrance were still fresh in his mind.

However, Roland did not dwell on it for long. It might be a little painful recalling such an experience, but he was positive that he would get over it soon. The evidence was the fact that he only reacted a little after recalling that scene, unlike yesterday where the feeling stinged like it was hell.

He continued walking forward with confident strides and a few minutes later, he finally saw the fast-food restaurant.
