202 Bin, The Dungeon Master
After they finished observing the two infected people, Alex and Glen left the place, carrying the two infected with them.
Alex turned his head to Glen with a complicated look on his face.
"Are you sure we can just bring them to your headquarters just like this, Mr. Glen?"
While moving, Glen tilted his head and asked, "What? Aren't we doing alright?"
Hearing that, Alex glanced at the swaying body of the male infected on Glen's shoulder and the female infected on his.
Alex sighed, giving up from even saying anything.
Right now, the two of them is silently running above the roofs of the houses around.
As Alex just said, their current destination is the CPS's headquarters.
In other words, the bookstore.
Alex and Glen both moved with haste and soon arrived at their destination.
Without hesitation, Glen stepped inside the bookstore.
However, instead of going to the isolated corner that Alex is familiar with, Glen went to the shopkeeper behind the counter.
Then he said, "Open the door."
The shopkeeper bowed lightly and moved to the side, letting Glen enter behind the counter.
Alex felt a bit confused by all of this and remained on the same spot, just staring at Glen.
Looking back at Alex with an eyebrow raised, Glen said, "Why are you still standing there? Let's go, we need to bring them to the lab immediately."
"Ah, yes!"
Alex snapped out of his daze and immediately followed.
Once he got behind the counter, Alex saw that there's actually a new pathway on the floor, stairs that lead underground.
Without saying a word, Glen went ahead and walked down the stairs.
Curiously, Alex followed Glen down underground.
Unlike the other pathway where lights automatically open to brighten up the place once the entryway closes.
This path that leads underground only has small blue glowing lights that sticks to the wall, barely lighting up the way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor normal people, it would be a little hard to walk down these stairs like this and could even cause an accident.
However, for players with supernatural powers like Glen and Alex, this is nothing at all.
Instead, Alex finds this place to be relaxing with this soft blue glow coming from the walls.
If Alex were to describe it.
'A fascinating place that is somehow filled with beauty for some unknown reason.'
For a moment, Alex can't help but think of his dungeon in Alter Dimension.
'Maybe I should also put a design like this in my dungeon.' he thought.
'Speaking of which, I've been neglecting my dungeons too much, huh.'
'Even though my class is called [Dungeon Master], I didn't act like one that much.'
With that thought running in his mind, Alex contemplated a few things until they reached the bottom of the stairs.
At the bottom of the stairs, there is an automatic door just like the one in the malls, that opened when it detected Glen's presence.
Pssh!
Once the door opened, Alex saw a very busy space inside.
People wearing lab coats, conducting experiments or having a meeting were inside separate rooms of their own.
All of them were visible to Alex since each room only had glass walls.
Giving Alex a chance to see them work in their field.
Anyway, as they arrived at this place, Glen turned around and smiled at Alex.
"Welcome to the laboratory or CPS."
Alex curiously took a look at his surroundings, arousing his interest more and more.
Seeing that, Glen smiled, "So, what do you think about it?"
Alex didn't immediately reply before saying,
"I think it's great."
"Really, no one would expect that such an important and spacious place like this would be under a bookstore."
A proud smile crept up Glen's face.
"Right? Not to brag but, I was actually the one who planned and made all of this happen!"
…
Glen continued leading Alex around the laboratory until a familiar man wearing a lab coat came running towards them.
"Boss, why didn't you say anything when you came!"
"Oh, Luke, you're already here. Come and get these people."
Without even listening to Luke's words, Glen dumped the infected people on his shoulder as well as the one on Alex.
Luke stares dumbfoundedly at the struggling bodies that Glen placed in front of him.
"These… What the hell are these?"
Luke approached the body for a closer inspection.
In less than a minute, Luke immediately identified what's wrong with the people in front of him.
…
Frey inspect his stats from the "status board" that he created.

He is filled with disappointment when he saw it. That is because this is not this is not what he imagine, he imagine something like in the games with strength, agility, endurance, etc. stat.
Although he is disappointed, he can think of what the reason of the insufficient information in his status board, and that is, of course the one and only thing that is use to fuel his creations the "magical power" also called in games as "MP".
While creating the status board he stop it because his MP is almost drained and he is on the verge of collapsing.
Now he is thinking if he can still upgrade it. Well even if he think a whole day he will still not find the answer because his MP is still low.
'Glurrgggg'
Then Frey heard the sound of his stomach growling.
'Now that I think of it I still didn't have my breakfast and I didn't eat dinner too. I just sleep then fall unconscious after waking up *sigh*. What time is it anyway?'
He look at the time on his phone. It's already 12:30 PM.
He go outside his room and to the kitchen to search for food. There's food in the table, probably cook by his mom for him. There is sausage, egg, and bacon, then there's rice on the rice cooker. He started eating while thinking of many things.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon he finish eating and wash the dishes. Now he truly feel fully energize unlike earlier with just resting. Food is really the best source of energy.
Now Frey have nothing more to do. Because today is Saturday he do not have school. He then sat on the sofa in the living room and watch TV.
While watching, he is thinking of things that he want to do and want to have. Using his power he can have anything. He is very excited, he have many things he want to do but he can't because of his MP that is too little to create something big.
He need to think of way to improve his MP. He remember that his MP improve a little when he use it for the first time, he probably need to drain his MP to improve again. Thinking of this he find it inefficient.
Then he have a flash of inspiration ' The protagonist in wuxia s said that they revolve their qi around their body. How about I try that, this MP has similarities to their explanation too.'
Thinking of this, he put it into play to test if he can do it. Little be little the MP in him started moving then it started gaining speed then it keep going faster. He keep doing for 2 hours, and the only reason he stop is he feel very exhausted.
He can feel that his MP improve again, he open the status board to check his gains.

The girl open her mouth and speak.
"Uhmmmnn, Who are you?" the girl asked.
Hearing her voice Frey felt flustered for a moment before coming back to his senses.
"What?" he asked back.
The girl open her mouth and speak.
"Uhmmmnn, Who are you?" the girl asked.
Hearing her voice Frey felt flustered for a moment before coming back to his senses.
"What?" he asked back.
Because of the mesmerizing scene in front of his eyes he lost his composure and didn't hear the question that the girl is asking.
"I'm asking who you are" the girl ask again.
This time he heard it clearly and answered.
"Oh, I'm Frey"
He tried to get near her but he saw her retreating so he stop.
"By the way, who are you and what are you doing inside the body that I created?" Ask Frey curiously.
The girl daze, you can see that she does not know what happen too and she is equally curious.
After a moment of thinking and still not figuring out anything she first answer what Frey ask.
"My name is Sylia Monteverdi, and The answer to your second question is I don't know too..... Wait created!?"
While answering his question and process it in her mind she caught something in his words. He said created and what he is pointing at is not just a simple toy or anything. It is a body, a human body that she is inside of.
And here we are again.
