Chapter 4: What a bustling city this is my starting point
Z-city,
"What a bustling city, this is more bustling than the city that I live. How come I didn't know this city before? Is it because the other me is not an adventurous one? Tsssk tssskk" Dex was so amazed of the big buildings and high-tech transportation. Then, he began to find the apartment that he wants to live temporary.
"Hehehe boy, this is the last one of the apartments that I will give you a discount for 5 percent" the owner of the apartment said while smiling with a smug on his face.
"Damn, Uncle what kind of apartment is this? This is like a storage room." Dex was so confused and looking at the owner.
"Boy this is a good bargain for you to stay and you can't find like this in the city and a discount of 5% is quite good." Uncle was smiling and smirking to Dex. "What a bummer, I actually needed to explain to him, I don't know if he has a money to begin with. Hmph"
Then Dex opens his bag simply and get the brick from his inventory.

-Materials
-Misc.

"Yow boy why do you have a brick in your bag? Is it your hobby hahaha" Uncle was laughing when he sees the brick that Dex put out from his bag.
"Hahahaha yeah this brick, I have this for my hubby and you are the first to taste it." Dex also laughs and then he hit it to the head of Uncle then fainted on the spot. A tremor was actually occurred in the building.
The other tenant of the apartment "what was that? Is there an earthquake happening"
(other tenant): ….
Then Dex gets a chair and sit on it and a few minutes later the uncle who fainted from the brick woke up with a bump on his head.
"Ahhh gush what the heck was that, ouch ahh…" uncle was sitting on the floor touching his head.
"Hey" Dex called the uncle whose sitting on the floor.
"Damn, is that brat who do this to me with his brick?" uncle was complaining and touching his head.
"Hey uncle, are you done?" Dex called out to him again.
"No I'm not done tsssk… give me a minute" the uncle was grumbling but when he sees the one who called him his face began to pale.
"You are not done? Or should I give you another horn?" Dex gets the brick again from his inventory.
"No no no I'm done, I'm done. Young master please be lenient I was just joking to you" Uncle was so pale and got his sweat pouring from his head.
Then Dex got up and walk to the door while carrying his bag.
"Hey uncle what are you idling? Come here and bring me to your other room apartment" Dex called out uncle who was standing unattended.
"Ahh coming young master" Uncle run to the door to catch up Dex who was walking at the hallway.
Then Dex and Uncle go to the other room apartment to check and after an hour Dex got the room at the second floor which he chooses a simple and comfortable since it is at the end of the apartment complex. He also chooses this room to be not disturb when he was practicing and executing his task.
"So where is the contract? I want to lease here for 2 years minimum and you say I have also a discount, right? Give me a price and don't think that you will deceive me I make your head another horn a pointed one." Dex said while they sit at the sofa.
"Yes yes young master hehehe well you don't need a contract but I give you a receipt with a discount on it" Uncle was pleasing Dex with a big smile.
"Are you sure? Do you want to deceive me again?" Dex was confused with this uncle behaving.
"Yes yes No no noo, Hahhh Young master this is the receipt with a discount of 10%" Uncle has his head full of sweat (Young master I want to go out now, I don't want to be here. Please let me go) while smiling.
"Okay okay uncle since you said it yourself. Actually, I'm not a bad guy you know, I just don't want a person who deceive me. You know what I mean? The price is actually reasonable for this room apartment. Here is my down payment $250 and $200 for 2 months." Dex was eager to make this uncle to leave now so that he can rest up a bit and he need to go to the school for his attending transfer.
"Yes yes young master thanks. If you have some inquiry, just call me anytime. I will go now to not disturb this young master Hehehe" Uncle was smiling and run right away to the door.
"Tsssk this uncle was a runner, maybe he was an athlete on his teenage era. Arggghhh I need to rest first. Hmmmm" Dex was murmuring and he go to his bedroom and sleep.
An hour later, Dex wakes up and goes to the school for his transfer.
Dex gets out on the taxi and he was amazed of the academy that he was seeing right now.
"What a beautiful school, this is 10 times more amazing of my previous school (other earth school)" Dex was amazed and he go the gate within a security office for inquiry.
At the Orion High School Academy
Dex goes to the front desk for inquiry about the process of his transfer and ask the security personnel.
"Hello sir I would like to ask what is the process of transferring to these school?" Dex asks the security personnel who is busy with his work.
"Ohh a transferring student, give me your ID and will process it for security purposes and I will give you a book, you can browse it there and its done." Security personnel said while smiling to Dex.

"Woahh what the…this is like a cheat from the novel that I read tsssk. I can see the information of this security personnel. Wait, but why I can't see uncle's information earlier? What is going on? System are you there?" Dex was so confused right now and shock with this kind of new perk of the system.
"Actually, there was a slight upgrade of the system a moment ago when you sleep at the apartment and a timer before used of this new feature was ticking until right now it ended" the System explains the additional perk of the system feature.
"System you are just too good to me; I'm move with this." Dex was smiling and giggling.
"Fuck off fool" System was disgusted with the way Dex is doing.
Back to the security personnel Mike, he was so confused also on what is going on with this boy doing.
"Hey boy what are you doing? Is there something going on?" Mike asks Dex because of the way he was smiling and giggling.
"Ahhhemm ahh there was nothing, it was just a sudden memory of my love Hahaha" Dex was back to compose, he was just embarrassed (Fuck, next time I need to save my face)

While Dex was walking, there are some students who are glancing at him. He uses the new feature which he can see the student's information.

"Look at his clothes maybe he was just transferring today, oh my we have the most handsome now in our school. Come on take a picture with him and post it out in our school website." The girls were eager to takes a picture and smiling giggling.
Dex was not aware to the commotion that he brings on the school while he was busy with the new feature of the system.
"There was also its save and hide feature. Fuck this is great" Dex was happy with this new feature.
"Wait that security personnel, he was quite a strong one that has a power rating of D- and a level 20." Dex remembered the information of the security personnel and stop walking and glance at the security office one more time. Then, proceed again to his destination.
Dex asks another question to the system about the power rating and the level gap which he can see the others background.
"This feature can only be seen with two gaps of power rating and if the power rating of the person you want to see exceed the gaps of your power rating, then you can't unsee it. Wait wait can't you see the new feature introduction? Aggghhh what a fool tsssk, goodbye I'm too busy right now." The system explains on how the new feature work.
"Tssk this system is such ahhh nevermind." Dex walks to his destination smiling because he irritates the system.

"Ohh ahh, yes junior, what is your name? Ahmm, you just have to give me the credentials then after the confirmation for the approval then you can proceed to the principal's office for evaluation." Elisa came to his composure after Dex called out of him.
"Okay this is my ID and also my documents for transfer." Dex handed his documents and ID and wait for Elisa for confirmation.
"Hmm you are Dex, what a beautiful name. Okay Dex, just wait for the approval and sit down first on the chair. It takes a couple of minutes" Elisa brings the documents to his superior.

"It simply implies that these two individuals are stronger than you by tenfold. So, this night I will give you your first mission" the system said to Dex that implying of being too weak.
Hooo, yeah yeah I know that I am weak, so tonight give me the mission. I want also to know what my strength sigh." Dex sigh of being too weak.
"Hmmm yeah, we know, come here sit down. What's your name boy?" Carrion said while smiling to Dex.
"I am Dex Light and I also came from the neighboring city. This is my first time moving here alone in this city." Dex said to the two elderly while being compose.
The two elderly glance each other and contemplate that this boy was actually alone. "What happen to your home? Where is your family? Steven said to Dex while thinking.
"Actually, they are not around now in this world. Do you know seniors the news a few days ago about the assassination? That's actually my family who are murdered." Dex was composed but there was a sadness with his beautiful eyes.

The two elderly then began about the evaluation and after 30 minutes, they congratulate Dex to be part of the academy. Then Dex said a goodbye to the two elderly for as he need to go home for his preparation tomorrow of his school start.
"That lad was actually not bad; he was actually composed while chatting with us. It was not comparable to the other students who are so bad that they can't even talk. Tsssk" Steven said praising Dex while remarking the other students.
"Yeah that lad was not bad, hmmm wait wait do you remember when he opens the door moment ago?" Carrion said while he remembered that moment.
"Hmmm it feels like there is something with this lad, with that kind of getting shock and compose. Maybe he knows us?" Steven said while glancing to Carrion.
Dex didn't know what the two elderly speaking of him. He drove in a taxi and go to the near coffee shop of his apartment. He applies for the part-time job for the surface work of himself. Then he goes to his apartment and make of the preparation of the first mission occurring tonight after that he sleep on his bed to make his body good.
At 6pm, Dex wake up and make a meditation while waiting his first mission.
