Chapter 18: Source of the void rock. Mysterious Mr Chen
"It's a void rock," Alex called out.
Owen glanced at him, his eyes showing appreciation for Alex telling him what this rock was before returning his gaze to the rock in his hand. He felt that the void rock sounded familiar but he could not seem to recall where he had heard it from.
"Please give me a moment, I'll be back shortly," Owen said before exiting the office and leaving Alex alone.
He was worried that Mr Chen would try to do something improper, there was nothing in the room that would be valuable to a mage after all.
After Owen left, Alex had nothing else to do and so began to recall the experience he had outside the borders. The thrill of using magic and fighting magic beasts rushed through his body and a big smile formed on his face.
Not only that, he had also made his first million while having fun and increasing his strength!
He also thought about the academy, the memories of the previous Alex, and the humiliation he had faced.
A small grin formed on Alex's lips.
"Just wait a little, I promise to give you all the biggest shock of your lives," Alex mumbled under his breath as he thought of the competition happening the coming week.
He also wondered how much the void rock would be sold for and guessed that it shouldn't be too cheap since it came out of a crack and contained some mana inside of it.
While Alex was reminiscing about the experience he had during the day, Owen left the office and headed for another floor of the union building.
