***** Surprisingly, Alex was not looked down upon at the store where he purchased his clothing.The personnel there looked after him very well, selecting the finest outfits that thought would fit him wonderfully.And as always said, clothes maketh the man.Everything about Alex changed the instant he changed from the rags on him, and his handsomeness became the first point of view to be observed, unlike in the past when his poverty occupied the first position of observation.Forgetting that he was now a cultivator who shouldn’t be moved by worldly things, Alex patiently, happily, and enthusiastically shopped for the remainder of the day, and by the time he left, it was already night in the city.Even he himself was amazed by the power of money. Although he was already treated extremely well even when no one knew his worth in the boutique, Alex understood that it was what they'd been taught, but the deeper he went into selecting clothes, the more amazed the attendants became, and by t
***** “Master, young master, please forgive us! We were so blind previously that we didn’t see your magnificent self.”The group apologized, and the minister even started crying with tears falling down his eyes like a kid.Witnessing this, Alex became utterly flabbergasted for a while before he eventually returned to his senses and smiled wryly.‘This is why power is important; without even doing anything, those who offended you would still regret their actions and apologize.’ Just as Alex thought this, his back went cold, and he felt adrenaline crawling over his skin.Subconsciously, he glanced at a particular person among the people kneeling before him and then shivered uncomfortably.Right now, gazing at him with stars shining brightly in her eyes as if she couldn’t wait to have him for herself, was the beautiful lady who had been extremely arrogant previously.She was currently looking at him with the kind of eyes that one would use to look at a rare extraterrestrial fruit that m
***** That night, Alex moved to the master bedroom with an empty stomach.Before he left for the bedroom, he was filled with regret for forgetting that he had left the hotel and that there wasn’t anybody to cook for him there.Before he slept that night, Alex made a mental note to buy food the next day.Fortunately, his grandma taught him how to cook when he was little. So, if he were to compete with a Michelin-starred chef at this age, he undoubtedly wouldn't lose.Back to the presenceJust as Alex washed himself and fell onto the bed, his consciousness drifted away.He didn’t fall asleep; rather, his consciousness was once again drawn into the space ring.It wasn’t that he hadn’t tried to make contact with space since he left there the last time; the thing was that he didn’t know how to.Perhaps it was willing, or because he forgot, his master didn’t include it in the memories he left him.Once inside the space, Alex took a deep breath and felt the energy-filled atmosphere.After a
***** Alex was still shocked.If the outside was said to be a world of pure nature, the inside appeared very majestic and resembled the palace of an emperor.“Is this still just a space within the ring?”Alex felt all his beliefs almost shattered.Thankfully, his master has already fed him with all the necessary memories about the supernaturalness of this world and beyond, because if not, he would have long gone crazy by now. It was only after a while does he finally begin to explore the hall. But unlike the outside, Alex only chose a very small part of the hall to explore. Well… It wasn't that he doesn't want to explore more; it was simply that for some unexplained reasons, which he assumed were his master's doing, Alex was only permitted to visit a very tiny portion of the vast hall, and this portion comprised just four rooms. At first, he was disappointed, but the more he checked, the deeper and longer his breathing became, and the more excited he became. “Master truly is the
**** The following day, Alex was awakened by a call from his grandmother, who gave him an address and encouraged him to attend the location because it belonged to his fiancée. At first, Alex was astounded, but after a while, he placed the thought away from his mind and exited his bed. Feeling his body filled to the brim with energy and seeing the beautiful bracelet around his wrist, Alex felt rejuvenated, then he stretched his body and finally had time to arrange the dresses he had bought the previous day, which he had managed to move inside the room from the huge living room before he slept the previous night. Done with that, Alex finally prepared for school. Actually, the school no longer means anything to him, and if it weren't for the vengeance he has yet to exact, Alex would have opted not to go again, but he still has too many people to exact his vengeance on. Not only this, but he also felt that since he was already in his final years, he should finish once and for a
***** When they arrived at the university's gate, Alex told Dami to drop him off, but she protested that it wasn't what she should do as his maid and that she could have reasons to come back in the future, so Alex helplessly let himself be brought inside. Fortunately, the institution belongs to the sons and daughters of affluent families, so costly and high-end vehicles are not uncommon, which caused no one to give the supercar a second notice. It didn’t take long before the car finally stopped in front of Alex’s classroom, thanks to his direction. “Alex, what time would you be closing so that I could come pick you up?” Alex almost instantly lost his cool at that moment due to the clingy girl’s words, then he wonders within himself if he was the one still paying for sin or her. Without showing the thought on his face, Alex shook his head and told her not to worry. Dami's cheeks flushed with sadness and displeasure as soon as she heard Alex state this, but when she re
***** It was only after some time did Shana eventually return to her senses, and the dumbfounded expression on her face was replaced with anger that could pierce into someone's bone and marrow. Standing up helplessly, her body released a slight killing intent as she glared ferociously in the direction of her classroom before turning around to leave. Surprisingly, instead of hating Cliff who had smacked her in the face and publicly embarrassed her, all her hatred was actually directed at Alex. “It was that bastard’s fault?” “How dare trash like him?! What right does he have to make my baby slap me?” “I won’t rest until his life was destroyed?!” She growled darkly to herself silently, then with those thoughts spiraling ferociously in her mind, she started searching around for Cliff to appease his anger. She didn’t even bother to pause for a second to think about why Cliff, who had despised Alex more than she does, had slapped her and acted like he was close with Ale
***** Without further ado, Alex rushed to pay his tuition immediately after he left the Dean’s office, shocking and face-smacking everybody in the finance department at the same time. And from then on, unless his grade falls below a certain level, which is impossible, or he violates the school's rules and regulations, he shall not be at any risk of being expelled anymore. The school had already closed by the time he was done, but he still went to his classroom because he had a hunch that Jewel was still waiting for him there, and as he had thought, she was still there, fidgeting and staring unblinkingly toward the entrance when he got there. Apart from her, the class was completely devoid of people right now. The instant she saw Alex walk in, the worry on her face vanished, and a huge grin took over, her heartbeat also finally settled down. This was the power of friendship to those who had lacked and had never experienced it before. Not especially when that friend was som
