Chapter 5 Maria's Diner, Dungeon Idea!



Walking down the streets, Alex looked around the busy people.

Everyone has this bright smile on their face, seemingly living a fulfilling life.

Because of that, it inevitably made the mood around the town very light and relaxing, which is perfect for unwinding.

Taking a look here and there, Alex views everything with curiosity like a kid who visited the city for the first time.

"Wow, this place really gives off the vibe of ancient times!"

It\'s been a long time since he got the chance to walk around without worry like this.

That\'s why Alex is leisurely taking his time.

However, Alex didn\'t forget his priorities.

While he seems to be wandering aimlessly, Alex is actually surveying the environment in this town.

The reason for doing this is to decide what form he will make his dungeon in.

"In fantasy novels that I read before, dungeons are usually a cave or a labyrinth."

"But I don\'t want to live inside a cave or in a labyrinth, I feel like the place will always seem dirty."

With a thoughtful look, Alex continued,

"Anyway, dungeons only need people to go inside them to earn points so making a dungeon inside the town is more convenient since there\'s a lot of people."

Rubbing his chin, he said, "So turning a business establishment into a dungeon is a good idea. But I wonder what business would attract a lot of people."

After thinking for a while, Alex still hasn\'t come up with a good idea.

Shaking his head, he sighed, "Forget it, no use thinking about it. I hope I find inspiration around here."

"Though, I wonder what kind of Unique skill I will get once I create my dungeon."

As he said those words, a flash of excitement appeared in Alex\'s eyes.

Unique Skill, just like its name, it is unique and doesn\'t have a duplicate. Meaning, the same skill won\'t appear anywhere else in the world once someone acquired it.

Every Dungeon Master will get a Unique skill once they establish their dungeon. This also serves as their path to strengthening themselves in the future.

Full of ambition, Alex said, "I hope I get a strong unique skill!"

With such thought, Alex continued wandering around while observing everything.

After wandering for a few minutes, Alex stumbled upon a long line of people waiting outside of a restaurant called Maria\'s Diner.

"For there to be this many people waiting, it seems like I found a good place to eat!" Alex cheerfully exclaimed.

Grrr~

At the same time, Alex\'s stomach growled, sounding its hunger.

Rubbing his stomach, Alex smiled wryly, "Because of my excitement, I almost forgot that I haven\'t eaten a thing yet."

"Well, just perfect, I found a good place."

After saying that, Alex fell in line and waited patiently.

After half an hour passed, it was finally Alex\'s turn.

Standing in front of the counter, Alex was greeted by a young girl with a big smile on her face.

"Welcome to Maria\'s Diner, what would you like to eat, sir?"

The girl can only be said to be average in terms of looks, but because of her bright and cheerful personality, the people around her inevitably come to like her.

Alex was also like them.

After seeing such a bright girl, Alex\'s mood can\'t help but improve a step further.

With a smile, he said, "I\'m new here so I don\'t really know what to order. Can you just give me some of your best dishes?"

Nodding, the girl said, "Yes, sir. Please sit down for now and we will bring your food to your table when it\'s finished."

Hearing that, Alex thanked her before heading towards an empty seat.

While waiting, Alex looked around, watching the other diners who seemed to be eating their food with relish and enjoyment.

"From their looks, it seems like the food here is really delicious, huh."

However, Alex also noticed that there only seems to be a small selection of foods since almost everyone has the same food on top of their tables.

But Alex didn\'t care about that and just waited for his food patiently.

A couple of minutes later, someone brought his food to his table.

"Enjoy your meal!"

The server said before leaving to tend to other customers.

Looking at the food in front of him, Alex smiled.

"It\'s finally here! Let\'s see what we have here. A bowl of white soup with potato and carrots, a plate of beans with tomato sauce, and a piece of bread."

Alex raised an eyebrow, "Is this really it? This looks… simple."

He scanned the customer around him again and still saw them enjoying the same food with such relish.

Turning his eyes back to his food, Alex said, "I guess I\'ll just try it."

He picked up his spoon and tried some of the soup.

Slurp~

"Hmm? Why does it taste so bland?"

Alex said with a frown.

"Did they give me the wrong food?"

Shaking his head, Alex tried out the other food and realized that they also didn\'t taste good.

The soup and the beans both don\'t have much of a flavor while the bread on the other hand is hard and tastes rough.

With a confused face, Alex muttered, "This doesn\'t taste like anything I expected. But how come they look so happy eating this bland food?"

For Alex, eating is one of the few enjoyments in life.

Even though he is poor, Alex always tries to make the best food using the limited ingredients that he has in his house.

Although it\'s not much, it was Alex\'s happiness.

In his own words,

\'Just because you\'re poor doesn\'t mean you have to eat bad food. Plus, eating good food will give you happiness so that the world won\'t seem so bleak.\'

That is why eating good food is a matter of course to him.

And now, being served such bland food made Alex really disappointed.

Sighing, he observed everyone and saw that their expression doesn\'t seem fake.

This also means one thing.

"This might be the highest standard of food for everyone here."

When he thought of that, light flashed in Alex\'s eyes,

"I know what I will do to my dungeon!"
