Chapter 91 Surprised Kris
Chapter 91 Surprised Kris
"Hello, Kris?"
On the other end of the call, when Kris heard Alex's voice, she paused before saying,
"Alex, finally!"
"Where have you been in the past week?"
Scratching his head, Alex answered nonchalantly, "Of course, I've been in Alter Dimension."
"Where else do you think I could be?"
Kris didn't answer that but said, "Did you know that Dad and the others have been looking for you?"
"They even thought something happened to you in Alter Dimension since you haven't shown yourself after that night I invited you to our house."
Hearing that, Alex raised an eyebrow, "Huh? For what reason?"
But just as he asked, Alex remembered the thing that they talked about that night and realized the problem.
"Oh, was it about the thing we talked about that night?" Alex asked.
"Yes, what else could it be?"
"Anyway, Dad has been looking for you. Go call him when you have the time."
Alex nodded, "Alright."
After that, they chatted for a bit more before Alex said bye and was about to hang up the call.
However, Kris hurriedly stopped him.
"Wait, wait, wait!"
"Hmm? Is there something else?"
With a hesitant tone, Kris said, "Yes, uhm… actually, I have a favor to ask."
Hearing that, Alex paused and raised his eyebrows, "Oh, a favor?"
"Yes."
"Is it something related to Alter Dimension?" Alex asked.
But unlike Alex expected, Kris said, "No, it's actually a personal request."
"Oh…"
This time, Alex was honestly surprised to hear that Kris had a personal request.
Throughout the time that they know each other, Alex never heard of Kris asking for a favor beside that time with the missing students.
So, full of curiosity, Alex asked, "A personal request?"
"Well, let me hear it first, I'll help if I can do something."
With Alex's words, Kris started explaining.
"Uhm, well, what I want to ask you is nothing hard to do…"
After a short pause, she quietly said, "Can you come with me to an amusement park?"
Alex was dumbfounded after hearing Kris' request.
Then she said, "What? You want me to accompany you to an amusement park?"
"...Uh-huh."
Alex turned silent for a moment.
Just as Kris was about to ask again, Alex finally spoke, "Well, it's nothing hard and I have nothing to do today anyway. Going to the amusement park might be a good idea."
"So, let's go, I'll accompany you to the amusement park."
Immediately, Kris' cheerful voice sounded, "Really?! That's great!"
"Then go and prepare now, I will pick you up!"
Before even Alex responds, Kris already hangs up the call.
Alex looked at his phone, speechless.
Shaking his head, Alex sighed helplessly and sat down on the sofa.
Patiently, Alex waited for Kris to arrive while watching tv.
Less than 10 minutes later, Alex heard the sound of a car stopping outside his house.
"She arrived fast, huh."
Alex stood up, picked up his phone and wallet, and left outside the house.
In front of the house, Alex saw Kris outside, sitting inside a red sports car.
When Kris saw Alex leaving the house, she smiled and waved at him.
"Alex, here!"
Alex approached the car after locking the house.
Looking through the window, Alex said, "Hey there, Kris."
"Hey, Alex. Get inside."
Alex nodded and sat down inside the car.
Today Kris is wearing a navy blue shirt and high waisted jean shorts.
Add to that the sunglasses and the sneakers, her outfit is pretty light and casual.
It made her look more relaxed and active which is another side that Alex has never seen before.
After taking a glance at her outfit, Alex turned his eyes in front and asked,
"Where are we going now, Kris?"
"Of course, we'll go to the amusement park immediately!"
Kris said, looking excited.
Looking at her, Alex felt like he's looking at a kid.
Alex thought that it looked funny and a smile slowly crept up his lips.
Kris noticed that, she raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Hey, why are you laughing at me?!"
Chuckling, Alex shook his head, "It's nothing. Anyway, let's go now since it's already afternoon."
Kris nodded, "Okay, let's go then!"
Kris started the car and left Alex's house.
While they were on the road, the two chatted about a few things.
Kris seems particularly curious about Alex's progress in the Alter Dimension and asked,
"Last time you said that you were going to head to the Trial Tower to break through, right?"
"Yeah, what of it?"
"Well, I'm just curious whether you've successfully stepped into Tier-1 or not."
Kris said while glancing at him.
Alex didn't reply immediately before saying, "...Yes, I'm already a Tier-1 now."
Kris was surprised to hear that and she turned her head to Alex and said, "Wow, you're really capable, Alex!"
"I didn't expect that in such a short amount of time you will become a Tier-1!"
Alex waved his hand and said, "Stop it, go look on the road while driving or else you might accidentally bump into someone."
Hearing that, Kris immediately turned her eyes back on the road.
Then after a while, she started talking again.
She said, "That's really surprising. Did you know that I'm only at Tier-2 right now?"
It's Alex's turn to be surprised this time.
"What? You're already at Tier-2?!"
Seeing Alex so surprised, Kris rolled her eyes and said, "Why are you acting surprised?"
"It's been 2 years since I first entered the Alter Dimension, being a Tier-2 was something I'll naturally achieve with such an amount of time."
"Anyway, you're the one that's really surprising here."
"Already at Tier-1 just after a few weeks… you're like a monster!"
"Hais, I really envy you. Did you know, it took me 3 months just to reach Tier-1 back then."
Kris paused for a moment before asking, "So, until what floor did you climb up in the Trial Tower?"
Like it was something normal, Alex nonchalantly replied, "Well, I cleared the 10th floor."
"Ahh, that 10th… What?!"
