Chapter 180 Draft
Beep!
Near the school gate, Kris\' car is parked.
It seems like she drove herself to school today unlike the usual where she\'s accompanied by a driver.
Kris sat inside the car and started it up before turning to look at Alex.
"Hey, what are you still waiting for there? Get in already!"
At Kris\' urging, Alex sat on the passenger seat.
Seeing that, Kris started the car and left the school premises.
While on the road, the two remained silent.
Kris was focusing on driving while Alex was looking at the view outside with boredom on his face.
The drive continued for 10 minutes before they arrived at the parking lot of a condominium.
"Let\'s go!"
Stopping the car, Kris stepped out and called Alex.
In confusion, Alex came out of the car and asked, "You said we\'re going to your house. So, why are we here?"
"Oh, did you think we we\'re going to the manor?"
"Are we not?"
Kris shook her head and said, "No, we\'re just going to my house this time."
Pointing at the condominium building, she added, "I have a condo here. I usually crash here when I don\'t want to stay at the manor."
"Oh, so that\'s why." Alex nodded his head in understanding.
Alex wasn\'t surprised that Kris had her own place.
After all, with how rich her family is, what could she possibly not buy.
Anyway, with Kris leading the way, the two rode an elevator and went to the very topmost floor in the condominium.
Waiting for a while, the elevator stopped and the door opened, showing a very luxurious hallway.
First of all, a soft-looking red carpet lays there on the ground.
Then on the walls, you can see some paintings with frames that are made of gold.
There are also some neatly arranged vases, placed every few meters on the hallway, giving the place a fresh and clean vibe.
Alex was speechless after seeing all this.
Turning his eyes to Kris, he asked, "Is this whole floor yours?"
Alex can\'t think of any other reason why such a place would be decorated this much if it isn\'t because of Kris\' willfulness.
And just as he expected, Kris replied with a smile,
"Yeah! So, what do you think of my place?"
While saying that, Kris already stepped out of the elevator and Alex followed a few steps back.
"Well, it\'s good but… you really wasted a lot of money decorating this place, huh." Alex said.
At his words, Kris shook her head and said, "It\'s not a waste, Alex. All these things help lighten my mood when I see it. Just that is a big enough reason to show that it isn\'t."
"Anyway, forget about that. Follow me to my place."
Saying that, Kris started walking away.
With no other choice, Alex obediently followed Kris.
Originally, there were 6 condo units on this floor.
However, since Kris took over the place, she removed all of it and combined it into one.
For that reason, the place looks really spacious.
Kris brought Alex to what appears to be the living room that is located near the windows.
Unlike the hallway, the living room actually has a simple monochromatic design.
With all white walls and some black furniture, the room looks neat and well-structured.
It was a great contrast to the luxurious feel that welcomed them when they first arrived on this floor.
Seeing Alex look around her place with curiosity, Kris asked, "How is it? It looks great, right?"
Sitting down on the white leather couch, Alex nodded, "Yeah. This place of yours feels… tranquil."
A smile formed on Kris\' lips when she heard that.
"Right! That\'s why I stay here when I feel stressed or whatever."
Alex nodded slowly without saying a word.
After a while, Alex turned his attention back to Kris and asked,
"So? What exactly is the reason for you to invite me here?"
"Oh, that, wait for me here for a second."
Kris stood and left in a hurry.
When she came back, there\'s an additional chest on her hands.
The chest looks very intriguing.
Its whole body is covered in jet black that it seems like the light around it gets absorbed by it somehow!
Kris sat back down and handed Alex the chest in her hand.
"Here, take it. This is the reward that I thought of giving you for helping me complete my quest."
Alex received the chest with a frown.
"Hmm… What is this exactly, Kris?"
At Alex\'s questioning, Kris scratched her head.
Hesitantly, she said, "That\'s something that I got in Alter Dimension when I was exploring a dungeon before."
"To be honest, I don\'t know what that thing is either. However, my instinct is telling me that it\'s nothing simple."
Hearing that, the frown on Alex\'s face deepened.
The next moment, Alex decided to use [Appraisal] already to avoid wasting time.
But to his surprise, the [Appraisal] result only showed a bunch of question marks!
[???]
[Description: ????]
…
Staring at the puzzling result in front of him, Alex took a deep breath.
Dismissing the [Appraisal], Alex focused his eyes on the chest with deep curiosity in them.
"Hmm… Even my [Appraisal] can\'t see through this thing. I wonder just what the hell this chest is." He muttered.
Seeing Alex\'s eyes glued on the chest she gave, Kris smiled and said, "So, did you like your reward?"
Alex didn\'t answer immediately.
Then he slowly nodded, saying, "I can\'t say yet if I like it or not… But I can say that this thing has piqued my interest."
After saying that, Alex observed the chest for a while more before throwing it into his inventory.
Next, he looked at Kris again with a smile.
"Thanks for this. I dig deeper into it to understand what that chest truly is."
Kris waved her hands and said,
"You don\'t have to thank me. That is your rightful reward for helping me complete my class change quest."
"If it wasn\'t for you, I\'m probably still stuck wondering how I was going to finish it or maybe, I would have already failed it by now."
After that, the two chatted for a while before Alex decided to go back home.
"I\'ll go now, Kris."
Alex stood up and said.
"Eh, you should stay longer. I will cook later, let\'s eat dinner together." Kris hurriedly said.
