It was a way past noon when Alex decided that it was time for him to return. His three days in Mira forest has been eventful and worthwhile. He was Level 15 when he came in but now he's level 37, he had level twice after massacring some poor Goblins, some Soldiers Ants and killed 20 Wind Wolves that came for revenge, Alex was surprised because he hadn't thought they could still locate him after the change he went through, guess his scent did not change.
Talking about being Level 37, it was pretty hard to level up.
Starting from Rank 4 (Lv 32~Lv 42) it became hard to level up with the meager amounts of XP Monsters like Goblins or Soldier Ants offered, he gained 8000 XP after killing 20 Wind Wolves.
Alex had read it somewhere, it was said that every three Ranks the amount of XP needed to level will double. Let's say normally you'll need 3200 XP to reach level 32 from level 31, then after becoming level 32 (Rank 4) from then one instead of 3300 XP it will become 6600 XP. This will continue until Rank 6, from 7 to 9, it will double again, the same thing from Rank 9 to 12. As for the amount of XP needed from Rank 13 to 15 it was unknown, it wasn't stated in the book he read at the town library, maybe he will gain more information once at the Imperial Magic Academy.

After checking his new status Alex became aware of the fact he had not distributed his SP (Skill Point) yet.
''Let's do this at the Inn.'' he decided.
''Sil, there was always something I mean to ask.'' Alex suddenly said after remembering something.
〖What is it?〗
''Why it's impossible for me to use other weapons like sword, spear, and so on?"
〖Fufufu, it's because other weapons are thrash and are for the brute.〗Silveria responded she didn't hide the disdain she had for other weapons.
Alex's lips twitched and he asked, ''So guns are not for a brute?"
〖How rude. Weapons like us are for elite people because we are the apex and because of our esthetics.〗
''Be serious will you.'' Alex rebuked her.
〖Sigh! You are no fun at all. Well, the reason why you can't use other weapons besides us is that after signing a contract with us you can't use other weapons until you die. As for why we left you to use knives and throwing knives, it was because without allowing you to use at least that you'd be dead. By the way, it's me who approved it so be grateful.〗Silveria explained.
Ignoring the last part Alex asked switching to another subject,
''I see. Sil, tell me don't you have anything for me that can conceal my status when someone is appraising me?"
〖I do have something that can help you, however, I hope you like wearing earrings?〗Silveria answered and asked another question in turn.
''I like wearing earrings. However, I don't want any ugly earring to wear.'' Alex said in advance.
Silveria chuckled for a while,
〖How rude. Today you are being too rude. And do note that my esthetics sense is way above yours, so no need to fret. Sorry, it is gonna hurt a little.〗
Silveria announced and before Alex couldn't ask for more details he felt a piercing pain on his left ear followed by the feeling of something being attached there.
Hastily bringing a small mirror stored inside his Item box, Alex observed himself.
''I got to say in terms of look I'm not inferior to that dick of Leonardo, no I'm more handsome especially with this silver earring dangling on my left ear,'' Alex said while flashing a handsome man grin. After the hellish pain, he went through he had become more handsome on top of having a top physical.
If a girl was here she would have blushed seeing how handsome am I. He thought before touching the Silver earring.
It's a small earring, its end was shaped like a cross.
''Beautiful.''
〖I know you should praise this lady more.〗
Alex offered no reply because he knew it was what he wants.
Pouting Silveria continued,
〖With this earring on, nobody can't Appraise you. Well, except for someone at Rank 12 and above.〗
''I see. Time to go back.'' Alex announced before using a black bandage to tie his long black hair. If he was wearing a White robe instead of his black pants and long sleeve shirt he would have looked like a handsome cultivator in wuxia .
.....
The northern gate of the city, today was going to be another boring day as well thought the guards stationed here. Their captain was off duty today yet because of the Vice-captain being too strict they can't slack off, meaning they can't even play their usual game with their Vice-captain staring at them like a hawk observing its prey.
''Ah! Too boring. It would have been nice if a beautiful woman just graced us with her presence.'' said the guard on the left.
''I do share your sentiment, however-" the words the other guard was planning to say got stuck in his throat when he saw what was coming from the other side. There was a surprise written over his face followed by a bit of hatred.
Having taken notice of his friend's unusual behavior, the guard on the left who talked previous glanced in the direction where his friend was looking at. He was surprised before smiling bitterly because he understood why his friend was behaving as he did.
''Seriously instead of a beautiful girl, it's a handsome man. I'm too jealous of his handsome face, if I have a face like that I can have any girl I want.''
Snorting the guard on the right responded,
''How idiotic. Do you think because he's handsome he can't get all the girls? Impossible, it's just impossible. He's a bit handsome that's all, I do not even envy him.''
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe guard on the left glanced at his friend and thought, 'Then why you are being jealous for? As if he had slept with your mother.'
He just thought that but did not say it aloud,
''You are probably right but he will have more chance winning girl's heart more than any of us. Being so handsome is a plus in life. Don't worry, everyone has a role in life, being handsome it's not ours.''
''Humph!" the guard on the left snorted.
'Are you a girl?' thought the guard on the left.
By now the handsome man was in front of them, smiling he said.
''Evenings brothers how was your day?" he asked.
''As usual, it's boring but peaceful.'' the guard on the left responded after checking the handsome man Guild card.
''I see. Have a nice evening then.'' the handsome man said before entering.
However, just after passing the other guard, he heard him click his tongue.
The handsome man paused, then smiled and said,
''Sigh! being too handsome sometimes is a sin.''
Leaving these words behind he left.
The two guards were dumbfounded as they stared at the handsome man's back.
'Big brother. No need to be that shameless. You'll have been cooler if you just left simply without saying anything.' the guard on the left thought.
On another side, Alex a.k.a the handsome man was smiling.
'Sigh... To think there no honest people like left in this world anymore. I just started a truth yet they are so surprised.'
〖Too shameless.〗Silveria commented.
'I will take it as a compliment.' Alex said not breaking his smile.
〖Fufufu, I wasn't praising you but being optimistic is a good thing.〗Silveria said amused.
Alex offered no reply, however inwardly he was holding back the urge to curse her.
Sighing because our benevolent he was Alex continued and entered inside the city.
