Now, this is what his attributes looks like.

[Class: Dungeon Master]
[Level: 2]
[Talent: Fortune's Embodiment]
[Health: 200/200]
[Mana: 150/150]
[Strength: 16]

[Intelligence: 19]
[Charisma: 16]
[Free Attributes: 0]
[Skills: Sacrifice (U), Monster Manipulation (A), Lord's Sanctuary (A)]
…
Alex added most of the new attribute points to charisma because it is a fundamental attribute of a dungeon master.
Charisma can make people follow or worship you, if it is high enough people will remain loyal to you with no chance of betrayal.
That's why it is a very important attribute for leaders such as kings, presidents, captains, etc.
And just like kings, a dungeon master is also a type of leader.
Most of them use monsters as their subordinates to protect the dungeon from intruders.
That's why charisma is also important for them.
Anyway, after Alex distributed his points, he decided to go back to Earth for now and get some rest.
With a thought, Alex disappeared from the dungeon.
When he appeared again, he was already back at his house on Earth.
"Ugh, I'm back."
Puff!
Alex sat down on the sofa and rested for a while.
Staring at the ceiling, Alex said, "I really killed someone, huh…"
Even though he might seem to be acting casual and cold earlier, Alex is still affected by the fact that he killed someone.
After all, he was just a normal kid who fought for the chance to live in the dumpsite until yesterday.
He's not some cold-blooded killer who will never be affected no matter how many people he kills.
But maybe it's because everything about the other world feels magical and unreal, like a game that you play on a computer screen.
That Alex was not really affected heavily that it will put some trauma on him or something.
Maybe in his subconscious, he was treating that world as just a game.
Anyway, for now, it doesn't matter.
After Alex got enough rest, he stood up from the sofa.
"I wanna rest early today. I'll go eat something and head to bed." Alex said.
He went to the kitchen and cooked something before heading to the bathroom to take a shower.
After all that, he went to his room and fell down on his bed.
Soon, the sound of his snores, accompanied by the crickets, are the only sound that could be heard around.
…
The next day.
Alex woke up early and ate his breakfast while watching news on tv.
He slowly finished his food and washed the dishes before preparing his things for school.
At this time, a news report caught his attention as it was about Pearl City.
[23 high school students have been reported missing since last week, August 15, at Pearl City. Until now, none of them has been found but the police are already investigating the case and they assured the relatives of the missing students that they will never stop looking for them.
On another news…]
"Missing students? They have been missing since August 15 so it's been 9 days. Are they even still alive?" Alex wondered.
Alex did not really feel much from this news since it's not really affecting him.
But soon he will be involved with this news that he didn't care about.
After he packed his things for school, Alex left the house and walked towards the school.
10 minutes later, Alex arrived at school with a lot of time to spare.
At this time, there's only a few people in the classroom and most of them are sleeping on their desks.
Sitting on his seat, Alex greeted Kris, who's reading a book on the side.
"Morning, Kris."
"Morning, Alex."
Looking at the book on Kris' hand, Alex asked, "What are you reading?"
"I'm just reviewing, in case we have some quizzes later." Kris said, he turned her book to Alex to let him see it for a bit before continuing reading.
"Ahh~, that's just like you." Said Alex.
After that, he ignored Kris and lay down on his desk just like the others.
But after a few minutes, Alex suddenly sat up, took out a math book and started reading it attentively.
Kris looked at Alex with a face full of surprise.
"Is the world ending? How come this guy who usually doesn't open his book suddenly reads it without anyone telling him to?"
Alex heard her words but chose to ignore it.
Right now, he is fully absorbed in reading the book in his hand.
The reason for this is because, after he started reading, he realized that he can actually understand everything.
Alex usually has a hard time understanding the lesson for some reason.
It might be because his brain lacks the necessary energy to study or just because his brain is inherently weak, he doesn't know.
And now, the sudden change brought by the increase of intelligence on his attributes has started showing its effect!
Alex felt the attraction from all this knowledge that before he couldn't understand.
And so, Alex used the remaining time till class started just to read books, no matter what subject it is.
Math, science, history, philosophy, english, etc.
Alex took everything in.
Ringgggg~
Alex only snapped out of his trance when the school bell rang and the teacher came.
Closing the book, there was a smile on Alex's lips as he raised his head.
"I never thought that studying was this fun!" He muttered.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ Alex felt glad that he raised his intelligence yesterday.
"Hey."
As he was still intoxicated with the addictive feeling of gaining knowledge, a voice on the side brought him back.
He turned his head and saw Kris looking at him with curious eyes.
"Since when did you start becoming such a knowledge hungry guy?" She said with a light smile.
Alex also smiled and said, "I just thought that I should at least try studying since I don't want to fail, right?"
After saying that, he turned his eyes back to the podium where the teacher was at.
"Okay class, good morning."
