Bang Bang Bang

A sound of knocking on the door rang throughout the single room cottage. Someone was just knocking on the door to break it!

Alexander who was just in a mood to celebrate because he can learn faster than before was now wet with his own cold sweat.

Who the hell is knocking at the door of the cottage?!

What are his intentions?!

Do people actually come to the forest cottage area at night?!

What to do?!

Panic was clearly visible on the handsome face of Alexander. Currently, it's already 8:30 pm and this place is isolated, so who can visit me at this time?

Suddenly he heard a sound,

[ Where's your courage? Can you become a ruler like this? ]

This was clearly the sound of the so-called World Domination System. This system is really irritating.

Ruler?! My *ss!

Who the hell will become a ruler?! I want to become academia!

[ We will discuss later. Go open the door! ]

Open the door?! Are you kidding me?

I won't open the door! Do whatever you can!

[ There's no point of discussion! It's a command! Open the door! Now! ]

The voice of the system which started with usual melancholy slowly transformed into the voice of evil sage by the end of the sentence. It commanded Alexander to open the door.

Alexander who was literally drowning himself in his sweat wanted to kill himself. Then struggling with his inner thoughts, he made a tough decision.

I'll open the door!

At most I'll get killed! At least I'll free myself from this dominating system!

Gathering the strength from his drowning body, Alexander went forward towards the door. He reached out towards the doorknob and then slowly unlocked the door.

"Click"

Creak

And with a sound of a rusty hinge, the door unlocked. In front of the door, a man with the same height as Alexander was standing with his face straight towards Alexander. There was a bright shine in his eyes and also on his handsome face hung a creepy smile, just like a devil.

Alexander who opened the door was standing in front fixed just like a statue. He was just staring at the face in front like a camera pointed towards actor.. cough, cough that's not correct!! ok, whatever!!

"Alex.."

The man called out and leapt forward.

Alexander who was still standing like ice sculpture wasn't able to dodge and was hugged by the man!

What's this situation?!

"Oii! Alexander! I knew you are my best friend! You even came to live in the forest cottage to accompany me!"

Hey! Isn't this David Taylor! My best friend!

Alexander finally gained back his composure and pushed back David,

" Hey! David were you trying to kill me by startling me?!"

Alexander questioned David. This boy nearly killed me.

I was too frightened!

" I thought you were sleeping that's why I knocked harder! What's there to fear when I am here?! Did you forget that I am the top student of close combat class?!"

"Ok, I know that you are the best! Why did you come to find me at this hour?! I was planning to sleep." Alexander rolled his eyes and said.

"Can't I come to find you when I don't have anything else to do?" David retorted.

"Yeah! You can come! Now say what do you want?"

Alexander knew that this friend of his will not go back until his problem is solved, hence Alexander directly asked him.

"I want you to accompany me to the game center in a few days! I want to play"

" Ok! I'll come with you! Now go!" Alexander agreed without any hesitation.

David gave him a hug and bade his farewell.

After David was gone Alexander came to a shocking realization!

I actually agreed to go to the game center?!

[ Yes you agreed! ]

Why?

[That's because he's your best friend! ]

How is this possible! I didn't have any friends before but now I agreed to go to a game center! This body's previous memories are pressuring my consciousness too much.

I can't let this happen!

Stabilizing his thoughts, Alexander finally settled on his bed, and started flipping through the books and with falling night he finally completed his 2 books and then slept.
