Chapter 31 Don's Questioning

Alex saw a man who's so dazzling that even calling him handsome might sound insulting.

He has a symmetrical face, well-defined jaws, perfect lips, sword-like eyebrows, and piercing eyes.

His beauty can no longer be explained by the words of man!

Alex slowly reached out to his face and skeptically, he said, "This… is the man in the reflection me?!"

Such a huge change, is this what 256 points in Charisma can do?!

Along with his handsome face, Alex also felt some sort of aura lingering on his body.

That aura makes him appear reliable, trustworthy, and full of dignity.

Now, Alex realized how the Charisma attribute can make people follow his words on their own, it's because of this aura!

After a while, Alex came out of his daze and looked around him.

For some reason, a few people are already gathering around, watching him like he's some sort of celebrity.

Frowning, Alex decided to immediately leave.

After leaving the mall, Alex doesn't really have the mood to continue wandering around.

And so, he decided to go home.

He hailed a taxi just outside the mall and drove home.

The driver was a talkative guy and seemed to like initiating a conversation with his passengers.

However, Alex only nodded his head at the words said by the driver without really listening.

30 minutes later, the taxi arrived outside Alex's house.

Seeing that, Alex paid the bill and went out of the taxi.

Stepping into his house, Alex immediately slumped on the sofa.

"Haa~ home really is the best. Strolling around the city center didn't really inspire anything in me."

"The Alter Dimension is much more interesting than it."

Alex decided to go to Alter Dimension later because of this thought.

Since the house is a little dirty, Alex cleaned up for a while before taking a shower.

When he got out of the bathroom, he changed into comfortable clothes.

"Now then, time to go back to the Slime Plains!"

With a blink, Alex disappeared on Earth and in the next second, appeared in Slime Plains where he left Ferri yesterday.



"Haa~ the air in this world is really much more comfortable to breathe in than the polluted air back on Earth."

Alex said as he took a deep breath.

After that, Alex felt the thread-like connection he had with Ferri.

He ordered, "Ferri, come back, I am here now."

Not even a minute later, the sound of the wind sounded from the east, which made Alex turn his head in that direction.

There, he saw the head of a ferocious wolf with green fur all over its body, rushing forward to where Alex was standing.

Its speed is like the wind, incredibly fast and unbelievably hard to perceive.

When Alex saw the wolf, a smile appeared on his face.

"Ferri, hurry up!"

The wind wolf, Ferri, heard Alex's shout and responded with a howl.

"Awuu!"

And then, its speed seems to have gotten even faster.

In no time, Ferri arrived near Alex and suddenly pounced on him.

Alex opened his arms and caught Ferri.

"Haha, it seems like you're pretty excited to see me this time, huh!"

Alex said, rubbing Ferri's soft fur.

At the same time, Alex tried to feel the control he had over Ferri and felt that there's no longer resistance.

Before, even though he had Ferri under his control and obeyed all of his orders, Alex could feel a certain resistance coming from Ferris's heart and soul.

Maybe that is just how [Monster Manipulation] works.

It can control a monster's mind but not its heart and soul.

And that's where the resistance that Alex felt is coming from.

But now, that resistance has totally disappeared.

That just means one thing, Ferri has been completely tamed by Alex!

To this, Alex still feels some sort of feeling of achievement.

And so, he was truly happy.

He laughed and said, "Ferri, it seems like you have finally decided in your heart to follow me, huh!"

As if to affirm his words, Ferri let out a bark and wags its tail excitedly.

Alex nodded, "Good, then from now on, we will be partners!"

Ferri seemed happy to hear that and ran in circles around Alex.

After playing around for a bit, Alex said, "Playtime is over, now we have to start hunting again!"





Hearing that, Ferri also stopped and lowered its body in front of Alex.

Patting Ferri's back Alex smoothly jumped into its back.

"Okay, Ferri, full speed ahead!"

"Awuu!"

One human and one wolf soon disappeared from the low level area, Slime Plains.

…

Kupido Town.

Blade Gang's Hideout.

Don is sitting on his chair behind the table with an expressionless face.

Turning his eyes at the man who's sitting on the other side of the table, he said,

"So, you're saying that, when you followed that man into his house, you and the other two, Jon and Robert, suddenly fainted."

"And when you woke up, the two are already dead and only you managed to live for some reason."

"Is that it?"

Facing Don's questioning, the man shivered uncontrollably from fear.

That man is actually someone that Alex knows.

To be specific, he's a man who has already forfeited his life to Alex.

It's none other than Ben.

Hearing Don's seemingly emotionless voice asking him a question, Ben felt scared.

In his heart, he silently said, 'Damn, this is scary. The pressure that he's exuding feels so crushing!'

However, Ben still hurriedly nodded on the outside.

"Y-yes, boss!"

"I don't really know what happened but, I can still remember the chill that I felt when I saw Jon and Robert's corpse beside me."

Thinking back on that day, Ben is not really lying.

The means of that man, who's now his master, is really chilling.

It only took a few seconds for him to kill two people and stop Ben from escaping.

Plus, when he woke up and saw that the bloody wound that was on his knees has disappeared, he realized that the man he forfeited his life to is an incredibly powerful man!

So, facing Don, Ben managed to reduce the fear he's feeling.

On the inside, he said, 'That's right, I'm now serving a very powerful man. A mere Don is probably not even worthy of his time.'
