Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master

Chapter 71 Bounty Reward



"You, are you the one causing a commotion?!"

Facing the question of her superior, Loria's face can't help but turn pale.

"B-but…"

In an attempt to explain, she opened her mouth to speak, only to stutter before falling silent.

Seeing that, the older receptionist sighed while shaking her head.

In a much softer voice, she said, "Haa~, you're really a hopeless case, Loria. I already tried my best to help you, but you're afraid of every little thing."

After saying that, she clapped her hands and said, "Everyone, get back to work. Can't you see that there's still a lot of adventurers waiting?"

Hearing that, all the receptionists resumed their work and helped the adventurers with what they needed.

Except Loria of course.

Turning her eyes to Loria, she said, "Loria, go to my office for now, I will talk to you later after I finish handling this gentleman on your desk."

After saying that, she stopped paying attention to Loria and went to Alex.

With a polite smile, she said, "Hello, I apologize for my subordinate. My name is Linda, the staff manager here. I will be the one who'll help you process your things now."

Alex nodded without any expression on his face.

Linda looked at the bloody 'thing' that Alex put on the table.

After inspecting it a bit, her eyes widened in astonishment and said, "This is… Mad Bandit Ogura's head!"

Mad Bandit, that is the name that Ogura earned in his days as a bandit.

It was a name that came to be because of his class, Berserker, that makes him stronger the angrier he is.

However, Alex didn't know about any of this nor did he care about it.

He just looked at the receptionist Linda and said, "Yeah, that's indeed Ogura. I killed him on my way here because he sent people to my camping place."

From Alex's calm tone, you won't guess that he's actually talking about killing someone.

You'll probably just think he's talking about walking in the park or relaxing somewhere.

Anyway, with Alex's confirmation, Linda stared at him with a dumbfounded look.

However, as expected of a senior employee, Linda managed to return to calm immediately and proceeded with processing the bounty for Ogura.

"I will now proceed with confirming your kill, please hand over your guild card."

Alex gave his card without hesitation and silently waited for Linda to finish.

After waiting for less than a minute, Linda handed back his card and said, "I have confirmed that you killed Mad Bandit Ogura. Please wait a moment as I prepare your reward."

While Linda is processing the reward, Alex noticed that a few adventurers that are not far away from him looked at him with a surprised expression.

'It seems like they either heard Linda's words or saw Ogura's face.'

'Either way, it doesn't really matter to me.'

Alex thought.

He stopped paying attention to other people and just honestly waited for his reward to be processed.

Soon, without Alex noticing, they became filled with discussions about him killing Ogura.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"What?"

"That guy Miss Linda is handling, he killed the Mad Bandit!"

"What?! Man, you gotta be kidding!"

"No, Miss Linda already confirmed it."

"Damn, for real? That guy is so strong?"

"Yeah, can you imagine it? That guy looks so young but already has such strength…"

"Looks like at least another A-rank adventurer is about to appear, huh."

From discussing Ogura's death to guessing about his strength, soon Alex became the topic of everyone in the guild.

As they are still busy discussing, Linda finishes handling the process and hands Alex a money pouch and his guild card.

"Thank you for waiting, here is your reward."

Alex received it and took a look at how much is inside.

Immediately, his eyes widened in surprise.

Inside the pouch, there's actually 5 gold coins!

Alex didn't expect Ogura's bounty to be this high!

Before he could even react, Linda's voice sounded again.

"Mr. Zero, because of the exemplary deed of subjugation of the Mad Bandit as well as proving your strength, the guild has decided to promote your rank to C-rank."

"Congratulations on becoming a C-rank adventurer!"

Once again, Alex was surprised by Linda's words.

Alex took out his guild card to look at it.

[Adventurer Guild's Card]

[Name: Zero]

[Level: 25]

[Class: Mage]

[Rank: C]

Alex is really surprised now.

He never expected that killing a 'weak' bandit like Ogura would let him rank up just like that!

Once again, a slight smile appeared on his face.

Lifting his head, he looked at Linda and said, "Thanks."

After that, since Alex had no more business in the guild, he decided to leave.

Under the eyes of every adventurer, Alex left the guild.

He picked up Ferri from the stable and the two started roaming around River City.

"Since I have some money, let's go and look around for something to eat."

Hearing that they are going to look for food, Ferri's eyes visibly lit up!

"Woof!"

Ferri moved around excitedly, looking around the place for food.

Suddenly, an irresistibly savory smell wafted through Ferri's nose that startled him.

Closing his eyes, Ferri looked for the smell in the air.

Sniff~ Sniff~

Soon, Ferri opened his eyes and looked at Alex excitedly.

"Woof woof!"

Seeing Ferri's sudden change in behavior, Alex raised an eyebrow and said, "What? Did you find something good?"

"Woof!"

Ferri nodded repeatedly.

"Hmm, then let's go and take a look at what it is!"

Alex said after a little thought.

"Okay, lead the way, Ferri!"

Soon, the scene of an excited dog, no, no, a wolf walking around town with a young man was seen by the River City residents.

After walking less than five minutes, Ferri stopped in front of an old looking building.

At the entrance, there's a plaque that says [Dragon Dining] that seems to exude a domineering aura.

With just a glance at it, Alex can see that this building has been standing for a long time here.

However, even though it's old, it didn't feel lifeless but ancient!

Alex turned his head at the excited wolf beside him and asked, "Ferri, are you sure this is the place?"

Without hesitation, Ferri nodded.

"Hmm, well, let's go in and see what they have here."
