I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World
Chapter 92 - Mid-stage Innate Realm"Explain to me what happened," Manager Koff demanded while flashing Albion a frown.
"Of course, Manager Koff," The female staff quickly complied and recounted the event to Manager Koff without falsifying any details.
After Manager Koff finished listening, he questioned Albion for confirmation with a firm tone, "Is this true?"
"Of course, it's true! And what kind of attitude is that? Is that how you speak to your customers?!" Xiao Hua answered pompously with her hands on her hips before Albion could reply.
"X-Xiao Hua?" Manager Koff was startled before asking, "What are you doing here alone? Where's your elder sister?"
"She's over there!" Xiao Hua pointed.
Manager Koff shifted his gaze onto Xiao Qing by the corner before he quickly greeted with a start, "Miss Qing!"
"The one who got kicked by heels was you, Miss Qing?" Manager Koff carefully asked shortly after.
"That's right. It was me," Xiao Qing nodded.
Her complexion has recovered somewhat, and the wound on her shoulders has been slightly healed with her Special Ability.
At the same time, Xiao Hua hugged Albion's arm and said excitedly, "Big Brother Handsome, you were so cool just now. That slap was exceptionally excellent!"
Xiao Hua gave Albion the thumbs up before she pinched her nose with a crumpled expression, "You smell funny."
Albion smiled wryly.
"This gentlemen is…?" Manager Koff asked carefully with alarm after seeing the little princess of the Xiao family acting so intimately with the young man.
"Hmph," Xiao Hua quickly snorted, "Big Brother Handsome is our new neighbor, the one now living in the Skylark Hills' hilltop mansion."
Manager Koff was given a big scare.
He still did not know who the young man was, but anyone living in the hilltop mansion can only be rich, powerful, or both.
"I am terribly sorry for not recognized your esteemed self," Manager Koff bowed in apology before introducing himself, "I am the manager of this store, Jack Koffman."
"Jack Koffman?" Albion furrowed with a peculiar expression before he nodded, "If you know, then get lost. Don't waste my time shopping."
Manager Koff was stunned for a moment before he quickly understood with a wry look and bowed, "Feel free to take whatever you like, Young Master. It's on me."
"Sure, thanks," Albion nodded.
Albion was not too picky with his clothes, nor did he abuse Jack Koffman's offer.
After grabbing a single complete black suit set, he left for the store for the nearby special bathing facility.
Xiao Qing and Xiao Hua did not linger either and left.
Shortly after, Manager Koff directed his attention to the security guard, "Phi Temi, right? You're terrific! You should change your name to Phite Mi and quit your job to join a gang instead! I am reporting you to upper management."
"Please don't, Manager Koff!" The security guard but no avail.
"Hmph!"
Manager Koff snorted at Karen before flicking his sleeves and headed back to his office after instructing the female staff to clean up the store.
"It's over. I'm going to lose my job..." Phi Temi plopped to the ground.
"Hmph, what are you worried about?" Karen snorted before she said, "My husband is the Metti Gang Leader's right-hand man. I can refer you into the Messi Gang, no problem."
'You have a husband in the Messi Gang, yet you still have the guts to find yourself a boy toy to play with? I'm afraid I will die with you if he finds out!' Phi Temi's lips twitched in realization.
...
Albion exited the bathing facility, feeling refreshed in his new black suit before he paused, "Oh? You two waited for me?"
"Yeah! We just remembered that we haven't learned of Big Brother Handsome's name," Xiao Hua said with embarrassment.
"Oh, now you want to know my name?" Albion muttered before he said, "Well, it's Albion Black. See you around."
Before Albion could leave, Xiao Hua suddenly grabbed his arm before he turned his head back, "What is it?"
"Um, um, since Big Brother Albion lives in the hilltop mansion, you must be someone quite reputable, right? Were you also invited to join Grandpa David's 87th birthday?"
"I don't even know who that is, so no, not interested," Albion refused.
"Wait! Not knowing is okay!" Xiao Hua tried persuading, "There will be lots of delicious free food there! So, can you accompany Xiao Hua there?
"Why do you think delicious free food will be enough to persuade me?" Albion glanced at the little girl weirdly.
"I—"
"Well, you are absolutely correct. When and where?" Albion asked.
Xiao Hua and Xiao Qing nearly staggered before Xiao Qing answered, "Royal Pearl Club, 7PM."
"Got it, see you there," Albion nodded after a slight pause. Wasn't that the same place he was invited to?
Nevertheless, after a casual glance over Xiao Qing's shoulder, Albion left promptly.
Xiao Hua's excitement dampened slightly with a frown, "He didn't even ask about your injury, sister."
"Even if we are neighbors now, we are still strangers. It's already great that this person accepted our invitation. There will be a lot of bigwigs at the birthday celebration. I'm quite curious to find out who this Albion Black is."
After a moment, Xiao Qing shook her head before pinching Xiao Hua's cheeks with a smile, "Anyway, it seems like a big sister is still more important than some handsome brother you just met."
"What are you even saying, sister? Of course, you are more important to me," Xiao Hua pouted coquettishly before she said, "As the saying goes; hoes before bros."
"Huh?" Xiao Qing's expression froze before nudging Xiao Hua's head sternly, "What did you just call your big sister? A hoe, hm?!"
"Ah, I was wrong, sister! I mean bros before hoes! Hmm... but that doesn't sound right either..." Xiao Hua was befuddled with a pondering expression, "Maybe sisters before misters?"
...
Sometime later, Albion sat on the rooftop of a 50-floor skyscraper and enjoyed the early afternoon breeze while scrolling his phone.
"David Seymour's birthday, huh? Seems like there will be a lot of tycoons at this party," Albion muttered while putting away his phone after finding relevant information.
"Should I take this chance to establish my dominance amongst all the wealthy family in this city...?" Albion pondered before he paused, "Hm? What do I even want to do?"
He seemed to have forgotten his goal.
"Right, how could I have forgotten? ...Must be the 25-month abstinence messing with my head, making me hold back too much." Albion sighed with a shameless excuse.
"I'm actually a petty guy... Those people took my ring and authority. I need to take revenge and get everything back. But before that, I must improve my soul..."
Shortly after Albion's eyes glinted with decisiveness, he closed his eyes and began surfing the endless scattered memory fragments in his sea of consciousness.
After finding a sizeable memory fragment, he quickly absorbed it as strings of information poured into his head.
An uncomfortable feeling suffused his entire being, but at the same time, his soul grew subtly stronger.
[Ding! Soul strength has reached a milestone. Do you want to permanently lift a portion of the Seal? Y / N?]
'Yes!' Albion answered.
[Ding! Your cultivation has increased to Mid-stage Innate Realm.]
[Ding! A portion of the Seal's Divine Energy has been recovered. You have received 5 units of Divine Energy.]
[Balance: 14/1000 Divine Energy.]
