Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master

Chapter 39 Quarterly Exams

?Hearing Alex's words, Ronaldo was stunned.

"What?"

Making sure that he's not mistaken, he said, "Did I hear it right? You want this stone?"

Alex nodded and calmly said, "Yeah, I like it."

"Somehow, I feel attracted to it for unknown reasons."

He looked at Ronaldo with a smile and said, "Maybe it has some fate with me?"

Now, Ronaldo is really confused by this situation.

Clearly, he basically told Alex that this stone is useless indirectly but in the end, Alex still chose it as his reward.

Rolando stared at Alex with a puzzled look for quite some time.

After a while, he shook his head and said, "Well, it's up to you. I already told you that we don't know what that stone is so don't blame me if you don't like it in the end."

Since he's not the one losing here anyway, it doesn't matter.

He gave the reward that he promised, it's Alex's fault for picking a useless item for himself.

Rolando took the stone from the shelves and handed it to Alex.

"Here, now I have given you the reward I promise."

"I hope when the time comes that you come to need your help again, you'll help us."

Rolando said.

Alex received the stone while listening to his words.

When he heard about helping them again, he looked up and stared at Rolando's face.

"If you need help again next time, just ask Kris to tell me. If I can help, I will lend a hand."

Rolando nodded after hearing that.

The real purpose of Rolando giving a generous reward to Alex such as picking any item of his choosing is to get acquainted with Alex.

From the investigation that he conducted using some magical means, Alex will probably soon go through his first 1st advancement if not, already done it.

Added with the statement of the students saved by him, Rolando is sure that Alex is powerful.

Of course, if it's only that, a lot more other people can probably do it as well.

The thing that really pushed him to try getting closer to Alex is because of what he learned from Kris.

When Kris brought the students to him after Alex saved them, she expressed her surprise and said,

"How did Alex do it? When I used [Appraisal] on him just the other day, he was only level 1 so how did he save this student?"

When he heard that, Rolando was surprised as well!

In just a few days, Alex manages to go from level 1 to the point where he can kill a powerful monster!

Anyway, that was a feat that no ordinary person could possibly do.

Because of that, he concluded that forming closer ties with Alex might bring great benefits to their family.

…

After they finished choosing Alex's reward, the two came out of the treasury and boarded the elevator, heading back to the ground floor.

Back at the hall, Alex found Kris and the 14 students had already left.

Now, there are no more people beside the hotel staff that are cleaning the venue.

Since it's already late, Alex bids his goodbye to Rolando and leaves the hotel.

Even though it's already late at night, the city is still lively.

A lot of people are still outside, looking for things to do.

But Alex didn't care about any of that.

After casting stealth on himself, Alex started running back to his house.

With his speed, it didn't take long before he arrived at his house.

He went in and immediately headed to the bathroom to wash his body.

After he came out, he went directly to bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, Alex woke up and did his normal routine.

He ate his breakfast and showered before heading to school.

Today, Alex felt that the morning was more refreshing than ever before.

He took a deep breath and said, "Having money really makes life happier!"

Now, it can be said that Alex no longer has any problem.

Before, the problem that weighed him the most was money.

But now, with a lot of money on the bank, it's no longer something that he needs to think about.

Anyway, Alex walked unhurriedly to school.

Soon, he arrived in class and as usual, he started browsing his books to study more.

Thanks to his improved intelligence, Alex was able to read everything quickly and still remember it word by word.

Finally, just before the class bell rang, Alex closed the math history book in his hand.

With a smile, he satisfiedly said, "Yes, I finally finished reading all of my books!"

"With this, I won't have any problem in class as long as it's in the book."

Thinking of that, Alex found his whole being satisfied with such an achievement.

"Since studying is this fun, maybe I should also take a look at the things that I studied in the past years and review it."

Just then, the school bell rang and adviser and science teacher Miss Gonzales entered the room.

"Good morning, class!"

""Good morning, Miss Gonzales!""

Putting her things on the table, Miss Gonzales looks at her students with a smile and said,

"Okay, everyone seems energetic today, huh."

"Good!"

"Then let me tell everyone this, next week we will be having our quarterly exams. I hope everyone will show how much they learned in the past few months."

Hearing her words, the students didn't say anything.

They aren't surprised that they are about to have their quarterly exams since it always comes around this time.

All they have to do is do their best and cram as much as they can until the exam comes.

As for Alex, when he heard that the quarterly exam was about to start, he felt some excitement.

With a confident smile, he murmured, "Isn't this a good chance to test out my knowledge?"

As students, everyone wants to do well and have high grades.

Alex is not an exception to this.

Especially when it comes to these students, high grades are almost equivalent to high status and honor.

Because of that, Alex's excitement is reasonable.

After telling the news to the students, Miss Gonzales started the discussion where they left off last time.
