BXBX NOVEL Chapter 162 A Day of Relaxation
Looking around, Alex made sure that there's no one around before suddenly disappearing in place.
When Alex appears again, he is already back in his house on Earth.
"Ugh, really, nothing beats home!"
Alex dropped his body on the soft sofa and suddenly, dust flew all over the place.
Poof!
"Cough cough, what the hell?"
Alex muttered while covering his nose with one hand while he fanned the dust away with the other.
After a while, things finally settled down.
Rubbing his nose with a frown on his face, Alex said, "I guess I've been gone for too long, huh. Dust has once again accumulated all over the house."
Shaking his head, he said, "It can't be helped, I can only clean up before I go to sleep."
Without wasting any more second, Alex immediately started with his sudden general cleaning of the house.
For a while, the sound of Alex moving the things around the house and throwing trash out was the only sound that could be heard around.
Even the crickets didn't dare to make any more noise since it's already noisy enough.
By the way, Alex also made use of his magic in cleaning up.
Such as using wind magic to blow away every bit of dust that is on the house.
Using it in a way much similar to a vacuum cleaner.
Anyway, because of his skills, Alex managed to finish without taking too long.
"Hais, the house finally looks livable again!" Alex said while looking at the newly cleaned house.
"Now that I'm done, what I should do next is take a hot shower!"
Alex directly went to the bathroom just as he said those words and started showering.
10 minutes later, Alex came out of the bathroom with his hair still looking wet, wearing only a towel at the bottom half.
Without any clothes on, the muscle lines on Alex's body are very visible.
Just by looking at it, you can immediately see that it looks similar to the muscles of those Greek statues.
It looks just perfect and doesn't look hideous at all.
Alex wipes his hair with a dry hand towel as he walks out of the shower.
"Haa~ that hot shower made me feel like all the fatigue in my body just disappeared."
Next, Alex went to his room and wore some clothes before laying down on his bed.
"It's been a tiring week. I'm glad to be back home."
After saying those few words, Alex finally closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
…
The next day, the sun went back up just like always to brighten up everyone's lives.
Alex also got up from his bed, feeling well rested and energetic.
"Ugh~ another great morning today, huh."
Alex said, looking at the sky through the window while doing some light stretching.
After that, Alex stepped out of his bed and headed out of his room.
Alex turned on the TV in the living room just like a habit before going to the kitchen.
While preparing a simple breakfast, tocino, egg, and garlic rice, Alex was listening to the voice of the hosts of the morning talk show playing on the TV.
The hosts chatted for a while about random things before suddenly, the topic of discussion turned into the thing that is most talked about by people nowadays.
The Alter Dimension!
"So, about the thing that's been popular around this time. The Alter Dimension, what do you guys have to say about it?"
One of the male talk show hosts asked, looking at the others with curiosity.
"Alter Dimension?"
The other hosts pondered about it for a moment before a foreign female talk show host who has white skin and blonde hair said,
"This Alter Dimension thing, I've been curious about it as well since the government first talked about it."
With her suddenly speaking, the eyes of the other hosts immediately focus on the foreign female hosts, including the one who asked the question.
With eyes gathering at her, the foreign female host continued talking.
"So, because of my curiosity, I decided to go along and come to one of the screening locations where they test out a person if he or she is qualified to enter inside Alter Dimension."
"Really? So how did it go?" Said another host.
The blonde female host contemplated a bit before answering.
"I really don't know how it goes for me since they only told me that they are still going to conduct more investigations regarding me."
"But, from what I saw, almost 90 percent of the people that went there at that time had a dejected look while leaving the place."
Hearing that, the male host that started the topic about Alter Dimension said,
"Actually, I also went for that screening. And, just like those 90 percent of people that you saw, I also left dejected because they rejected me."
"They said that there's something about my personality and behavior that's why they didn't accept They can all feel that the male host is only saying such words because he didn't get the chance to 15:20
get into the Alter Dimension.
me."
Saying that, the male host scoffed, "Heh, it doesn't matter though. It feels stupid anyway. They said that the Alter Dimension is full of dangers, why should I even go there."
Hearing that, the other hosts glanced at him without saying anything.
They can all feel that the male host is only saying such words because he didn't get the chance to get into the Alter Dimension.
Since they don't want to ruin their 'friendship', everyone decided to stay silent.
…
Alex came out of the kitchen with a plate of tosilog in hand and sat on the sofa.
Then he looked at the tv and said, "They're talking about Alter Dimension? It seems like the government already talked about it while I was gone, huh."
Spooning a mouthful of rice, Alex started eating his simple but delicious breakfast.
Alex doesn't really care about any of that.
The only concern that he has anyway was the video that was spread from before of him going against the Devouring Clown.
Now that the government already talked about the Alter Dimension to the public, the video of him should have been already forgotten by them.
That's why now, Alex felt free of worries.
So, with a relaxed atmosphere, Alex finished his breakfast.
Not to be lazy, Alex immediately washed the dishes after he finished using them.
After he did that, Alex went back to the living room and sat down on the sofa to continue watching tv.
Today is actually monday.
Which means, Alex has a class today and should go to school.
However, Alex only wants to spend the day without doing anything since he's been through a lot in the past couple of weeks.
Additionally, he's been absent for more than a week now anyway, adding another day of absence won't do him any harm.
And so, Alex decided to take the day off from school today.
…
While Alex is 'busy' doing nothing at home, the whole world is still buzzing with discussions regarding the Alter Dimension.
The internet is filled with countless threads with all of it discussing things related to Alter Dimension.
But the current most popular topic right now is the thread with the title [Who passed through the screening interview done by the government for the Alter Dimension?].
In this thread, the op was talking himself through the interview for the potential Alter Dimension players that the government will recruit.
Basically, he's flaunting that he passed the screening.
Now, he was also asking whether others have passed just like him.
One by one, people sprung up like wild mushrooms and the discussion board started to fill up.
About 70 percent of those that commented were those who were unable to pass, lamenting how they are unlucky and such.
While the other 30 percent were the ones that were lucky enough to pass just like the op.
[Portyful: Damn it! How can it be that I didn't pass?]
[Junior110: Haha, too bad, my man. For me, I was lucky enough to pass!]
[Teerto: Lol, how can you act like that to that pitiful guy who didn't pass unlike us.]
[Qwerty661:Arghh, these guys are too arrogant. I will tear you guys to pieces!]
…
People from all over the country visited the thread and started leaving their own comments.
Meanwhile, in the Raven Family's Manor, everyone is once again gathered in the living room.
Jonathan, Rolando, Glen, and Rosa, all four of them who hold important roles are gathered.
For them to be together like this in this hectic time where the era of Alter Dimension is beginning, proves just how important the reason they are here right now.
And this is all because of the girl that is with them right now in the living room.
It's none other than the girl that Rosa brought home from the interview a few days ago.
Jopay.
Jopay is currently sitting on the sofa, fidgeting with her fingers, feeling a little uncomfortable.
