Chapter 31 : Level 1 ?

"How is it possible that you are at level 1?"

As soon as Ava asked this question, everyone used their mana and senses to determine if what Ava was saying was true. When they confirmed that what Ava was saying was indeed true, they all wore puzzled expressions, except for three people.

The first person who wasn't surprised was Scarlett because she already knew that Alex was currently at level 1. The second and third people were none other than Lilia and Violette.

In Lilia's case, she could no longer sense or use mana, so she couldn't know. Violette, on the other hand, hadn't awakened her powers since you needed to be 18 years old to awaken them.

Alex, meanwhile, was smiling despite all the curious looks directed at him.

After a moment, Lilia asked, "Is it true, dear? Are you really at level 1?"

"Yes," Alex confirmed.

Upon hearing the confirmation from Alex himself, Lilia's face lit up with joy, in stark contrast to the others who were rather confused.

She was so happy that she jumped on him and hugged him while saying, "I'm so happy for you!"

Seeing his wife's reaction, Alex couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek. He knew that unlike all the others who were waiting for an explanation of how he managed to reach level 1, Lilia didn't care how he did it; she was just happy that he had reached level 1.

"I know," Alex replied.

"So why do you want to participate?"

"Because I intend to reach level 4 by next week," Alex said, smiling as if he hadn't just uttered an outrageous statement. This time, even Lilia lifted her head from Alex's shoulder to look at him with wide eyes.

"Come again?" Ava asked.

"You heard me right. I'll be at level 4 before next week. All I need from you is to provide me with 1000 monster cores."

"So, if I understand correctly, you plan to reach a level that typically takes geniuses decades to achieve in just one week, and for that, you want 1000 monster cores, is that it?" Ava asked after a few minutes.

"That's right."

Ava and everyone around him looked at him with strange gazes when he claimed to have achieved level 4 in one week. It's not that they thought he was lying, but reaching level 4 in just a week was far from easy.

As Ava had mentioned, it might take decades, even for a genius, to reach that level. So, when Alex confidently stated that he would do it in one week, it seemed like he was either bragging or clueless, or dumb.

Seeing their incredulous expressions, Alex's grin only grew wider, and he thought, If only you knew what I know and what I can do.'

He scanned the faces of some of them and thought, 'Moreover, you may not know it yet, but it will be thanks to you.'
