Shaking his head, Alex threw the potions in his inventory and turned his attention back to the drop items.
The next item that Alex picked up is the red hammer.
The fiery red color of the hammer gave it and intensity that you won't normally feel from a hammer.
Alex weighed the hammer with his hands and said, "Hmm, this one is quite heavy, huh."
"Maybe I can use it when going against some stronger opponents."
Just like before, Alex also viewed the information of the hammer.

[Rating: Rare]
[Attack Power: 700~901]

[Restrictions: Level 25 or higher, 200 strength, 200 constitution.]
[Details: A hammer that's been bathed in fire for decades and slowly absorbed the power of fire to strengthen itself]
…
Seeing the information of the hammer, Alex can't help but raise an eyebrow.
"Wow, this one is really a great item, huh."
You have to know that every 1 point of strength is equivalent to 1 attack power.
Although because of the other stats, that's not really that accurate.

If you're facing an opponent that has an equal number of stats with you, by using this hammer, you can surely overpower your enemy.
Alex decided to keep this one for himself.
Next, Alex picked the last item, the ring.
Looking at it carefully, Alex didn't see anything special from its appearance.
"Hmm, is this just an ordinary ring?"
Seeing its ordinary appearance, Alex thought that it was nothing special.
But knowing that you can't judge an item by its appearance, Alex used [Inspect] on it.
[Minotaur's King]
[Rating: Epic]
[Effects: King: Make the Minotaurs submit to you.]
[Details: The ring used by the King of Minotaurs, a monster known for his strength that overwhelms a lot of other monsters.]
…
Alex looked at the ring on his hand and a thoughtful look on his face.
"Hmm, what the hell am I going to do with this?"
Shaking his head, Alex thought that it was useless.
In the end, Alex decided to just throw it away on his inventory.
After that, Alex continued climbing up the tower.
He walked up the new stairs and arrived at the 3rd floor of the tower.
Just like before, a monster once again appeared in front of him along with the notification from the system.
This time, there are three minotaurs facing Alex.
Without wasting time, Alex killed the minotaurs with a punch as soon as they formed and continued climbing.
…
"It's been seven days already, why haven't Alex contacted us yet?"
Glen asked with a frown.
Rolando shook his head, with a helpless look, he said, "I also don't know."
"I already asked Kris about him but she told me that she hasn't been able to contact him and Alex didn't go to school for a whole week."
After Rolando said that, everyone in the room suddenly fell silent.
It's been a week since that night they invited Alex.
Originally, Alex didn't gave them an exact answer for Jonathan's offer that night so they thought Alex might come the next day to give his answer.
But after days passed, there was no word from Alex which confused and worried.
While everyone still didn't know what to do, Kris, who's sitting on a sofa, spoke.
She said, "Uhm, have you guys forgotten?"
Her words immediately attracted all eyes on her, questioning what she was talking about.
Seeing their clueless look, Kris sighed, "Didn't you guys listen to Alex that night?"
"He said that he was preparing to go to the capital and enter the Trial Tower!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter being reminded by her, an enlightened look dawned on everyone in the room.
Luckily, Jonathan isn't here or else, he would have smacked these kids of his for being how they are.
Oh, speaking of Jonathan, he already went back to Alter Dimension to manage the territory that their family owns.
It's because a war has in their kingdom and currently, a lot of things are happening that's why Jonathan personally stepped in.
Anyway, after everyone remembered Alex's goal of advancing, they finally relaxed.
"Well, that's good. I almost thought that a genius like Alex just suddenly slipped out of our family." Said Rosa.
At this time, Glen once again opened his mouth and said, "But, are we sure that he is really in Alter Dimension or Trial Tower right now?"
To that, Rolando smiled and said, "Isn't that easy to say? Let's go to his house and check if he's really not there."
Saying that, he turned to Kris and said, "My dear daughter, let's go. Guide us towards where Alex lives!"
Against Rolando, Kris is no match and can only obediently follow her father inside a car.
Soon, Rolando, Kris, Glen, and Rosa has left the manor.
…
Alter Dimension.
Rejume Kingdom.
This is the kingdom where the Raven family has been a member of since the day they started diving in the Alter World.
At this time, Jonathan is inside the room with someone wearing some fanciful clothes.
That person is a chubby middle-aged man with a sharp look on his face.
At this time, that person raised his head and looked at Jonathan, saying, "Making empty promises are easy, but investments is a really hard thing to do."
"As someone you're asking for an investment from, can you give me a reason why I should give it to you and not someone else?"
When Jonathan heard that, he stared at chubby middle-aged man for some time, trying to understand the man's personality and said,
"Duke, even though it's hard to believe right now, with the way the war is currently going, there's a huge chance that our kingdom is going to lose."
"What I'm promising here is the guarantee that we won't be losing our land and we might even get a chance to eat the land they are currently fighting for!"
