Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master -
Chapter 17 Grinding Levels
Alex listens closely as Kris talks about some of the history of the Alter Dimension when it was first discovered.
Without pausing, Kris continued talking, "At first, the expedition group from Earth were able to kill a few low level monsters using guns that they brought and learned about the leveling system that exists in Alter Dimension."
"Since it was similar to games that everyone is familiar with, they immediately adapted to it and raised their levels."
"However, soon they met a high level monster. It was an existence that even a gun that humanity considers as the main weapon, can't damage!"
"They could only retreat back to Earth under the pursuit of that monster."
"In the end, only half of the people who went to explore the Alter Dimension managed to come back."
When Kris arrived at this part, a sorrowful look covered her face.
Alex looked at her but did not say anything.
Shaking her head, Kris got rid of other thoughts in her head and said, "After that, a lot of things happened which resulted in every rich and powerful person getting involved with the Alter Dimension."
Raising her head, Kris looked at Alex and continued, "Now, some of the rich and powerful people at that time have been tasked with protecting Earth from the Alter Dimension."
"Just like my family."
A look of realization appeared on Alex's face after hearing that.
"Ah, so you're saying that on the outside, your family is only a 'little' rich but in truth, your family is actually one of the protectors of the world?"
Kris nodded.
Putting his hand on his chin, Alex added, "Because of that, you want my help to rescue the missing students from whoever kidnapped them from the Alter Dimension, is that it?"
"That's right, I'm telling you all this in the hope that you will be able to lend us some of your time to help look for the missing students." Kris said and looked at Alex with expectant eyes.
Seeing that, Alex frowned and said, "I don't think I will be of any help to you though."
"I'm not really someone powerful that I can do something about a problem that you guys can solve."
When Kris heard that, she smiled and said, "Of course, I know that. Don't worry, I'm not asking you to fight monsters or go out of your way to search for those students."
"The only thing that I want to ask you is to watch out in case you see them around in the Alter Dimension and just relay it to me."
After saying that, she sighed and said, "It's all because until now, we still haven't found where those people are. We want to widen the scope of our search that's why I'm asking this of you now."
Nodding in understanding, Alex said, "Then I guess there's no problem. I'll take a look if they are in the vicinity of my place and tell it to you immediately."
Hearing that, the smile came back to Kris' lips, "That's great, thank you, Alex!"
Looking at the sky, Alex saw the orange glow of the setting sun.
He turned his head back to Kris and said, "It's already late, there's still a lot of things I want to ask you but, I got to go back now since I still have a lot of things to do."
"Is that so? Then I won't keep you occupied. I also have to go back now and help with the search." Kris said.
The two talked for a while and said goodbye to each other before going their own separate ways.
Kris rode on a black car that's been waiting for her outside the park while Alex started walking unhurriedly back to his home.
After some time, Alex was back at his house.
Without wasting any time, Alex teleported back to Lucky Dungeon.
When he arrived, Alex immediately noticed a figure sitting in the corner.
"Oh, you're finally awake."
It was Ben who Alex accepted as a subordinate yesterday.
"Ah, yes, Boss!"
At this time, Ben has recovered some color to his face after a whole night and day of rest.
When he saw Alex appear in front of him, Ben was surprised but he still hurriedly stood up answered.
Crossing his hands, Alex said, "Good, now, I have a task for you."
Hearing that, Ben stood up straight and replied, "Whatever it is, just give it to me, Boss. I will make sure that you will be satisfied with my work!"
Alex nodded with a satisfied look on his face.
As for whether Ben will be loyal to him or not, Alex has no worries about that.
When Ben agreed to become Alex's underling yesterday, Alex felt a connection with him form like a threat that connects the two of them.
From his guess, this was an effect brought by the skill "Lord's Sanctuary", probably a hidden effect that's not written in the skill detail.
Anyway, after this thread connects them, Ben can only remain loyal to Alex for the rest of his life whether he wants it or not.
Alex stared at Ben and said, "Okay, my first task for you is to go back to Don and report to him what happened to the two."
"Keep the matter of you becoming my underling for now and then tomorrow, come back here with him."
"As for how you'll convince him to come here, I will leave that up to you."
After saying all that, Alex raised an eyebrow and said, "Did you understand everything?"
Ben nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Boss!"
"Don't worry, I will execute your order immediately, Boss!"
"That's good, then what are you still waiting for? Go now!"
Seeing that Ben still hasn't left, Alex told him to get out.
Soon, Alex was left alone inside his dungeon.
Looking around, Alex said, "Now then, It's time for me to go as well and level up."
Saying that, Alex took out the gun that's been in his storage.
In big strides, Alex left and headed in the direction of the town gate.
