Chapter 21: Returning home
Alex, unaware of the commotion that he had caused at the union, returned home after keeping his outfit back in the system.
The sky was already dark by the time Alex arrived at their house; only a few working street lamps and lights from the windows of nearby houses and the moon provided visibility for this part of Balon city.
As he had inherited the memories of the previous Alex, he was now familiar with the various routes of this part of the city and knew where not to pass to avoid encountering those scumbags that hid in quiet alleys and waited for unlucky people.
Not that he was afraid of them, he just didn't feel like dealing with anyone today since he was in a good mood.
Although he didn't manage to increase his strength after killing magic beasts for the whole day, he had gotten a very useful spell that would save him a lot of trouble in the future and had made a huge sum of money from selling his gains as well!
Thinking about this, Alex had a wide smile on his face as he pushed the door of his house open and stepped in.
"I'm home!" He announced as he entered.
"Big brother, you're back!" Emily's eyes lit up when she saw Alex and ran toward him.
"Where did you go? I thought you weren't going to come back." Emily arrived in front of Alex and said with a pout on her cute face.
"I was out for some work, did you miss me?" Alex said with a small laugh while rubbing her head.
"Don't mess up my hair, you made everyone wait for you for dinner." Emily protested but didn't move Alex's hand away.
