Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master

Walking down the streets, Alex looked at the lively nightlife of the city with a head full of thoughts.

"Protecting this city, huh…" Alex muttered.

Alex sighed, feeling a little complicated inside.

That is because, just a while ago at the Raven's Manor, Jonathan offered him something.

And that is, to help them protect Pearl City and in exchange, they will protect him from the prying eyes on Earth.

Alex understood what they meant after a little explanation from Rolando.

Here on Earth, the world is actually not peaceful.

There are organizations that formed connections with those monsters from the Alter Dimension.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Basically, they are people who help those monsters in exchange for power.

After all, what players want the most is to become stronger to the point that some of them are even willing to harm others for it.

And the Raven Family, or more precisely Jonathan, is promising to protect him from those threats until he grows up and becomes able to stand on his own two feet.

As a payment for their protection, Jonathan asked Alex to help them in protecting this city, the Pearl City.

Thinking of that, Alex will be lying if he said that he doesn't want their protection.

Alex is not a fool, he knows that at some point in the future, he will meet all kinds of people and some of them don't have good thoughts about him.

So their protection will be a great help to him if he hasn't grown up yet at that point.

However, there's just one thing that Alex is thinking of.

"I don't really feel any affection to this city though…" he muttered, followed by a long sigh.

For Alex, Pearl City isn't exactly that he feels fond of.

After all, he felt all kinds of things while living here.

As an orphan and someone who makes a living through diving through the dumpster, people don't really look at him with good eyes.

He was even humiliated a couple of times in the past.

But as a man at the bottom of the society, Alex can do nothing but endure.

That's one of the reasons why Alex wants to rise up in the future.

To prove those people who told him he will reach nothing because he's just a garbage that should stay in the dumpster that they are wrong.

Alex once again sighed before a determined look appeared in his eyes.

He said, "It doesn't matter if I don't like this city. I just have to think that this is work. As long as I can have some protection, it's fine."

Then after thinking about it, a smile crept up his lips and he said, "Also, if I become a protector of this city, isn't that almost putting the fate of those people into my own hands?"

Chuckling, Alex felt a little comforted with his own words.

And so, Alex finally made a choice to accept Jonathan's offer.

He has nothing to lose anyway, so why should he refuse it?

In a light mood, Alex started heading back towards his house.

When he got home, Alex did a light shower before heading back to bed.

…ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Raven's Manor.

Unlike Alex who already went to bed at this time, the Raven family is still awake and gathered in Rolando's office room.

Jonathan is sitting at the head seat as usual.

The reason why they are all gathered at this time is none other Alex.

This time, the first one to speak is Glen.

With a slight frown, he asked, "Father, Alex is still only level 25, why did you ask him to become a protector of the city?"

Glen is the Leader of the CPS or City Protection Squad here in Pearl City.

So, Jonathan's offer is almost equivalent to putting Alex under his care.

That's why Glen is very concerned about this matter.

Jonathan turned his gaze at him and said, "Did you not feel it?"

"Even though Alex is supposedly only level 25, the power that is hidden inside his body is obviously more than just a normal 25?"

Hearing that, Glen fell silent.

Of course he also felt it.

It's normal for other strong players to be able to gauge the power of their opponents just by the aura being exuded by the other party.

And earlier, Glen indeed felt power greater than a level 25 from Alex.

Then it was Rolando's turn to speak and he looked at Kris, "Daughter, did Alex lie about his level? You should know about it since you have appraisal skill."

Being asked by her Dad, Kris didn't immediately reply.

Just when Rolando frowned and was about to ask again, Kris finally replied.

Shaking her head, she said, "I don't know, Dad."

Rolando raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you mean? Did you not use [Appraisal] on him?"

Raising her head, Kris looked at Rolando and said, "I did, Dad. It's just that, no matter how many times I try to use it on him, the only response from my skill was question marks."

Hearing that, everyone immediately understood.

They've been in the Alter Dimension for years and they have seen quite a lot of means including skills that block skills such as [Appraisal] from peeking at their information.

Crossing his arms together, Jonathan leaned his back on his seat and calmly said, "That kid is really the cautious type, huh."

Then a slight smile appeared on his lips and he said, "It doesn't matter. Everyone just has to remain friendly with him and never underestimate him."

"Making someone like him an enemy will have a lot of consequences so we should stay on friendly terms with him even if he doesn't agree to our offer."

"We understand, father!"

Rolando, Glen, and Rosa said in unison.

…

The night passed by without any problem for Alex and the sun soon rose into the sky.

Alex woke up with a bright smile, took a shower, ate breakfast, and prepared to go out.

Looking at the clear sky outside the window, Alex said, "Today, let's head to the capital!"
