"After they got their systems from that shrine, a new quest suddenly appeared in front of me and the others. As we talked about our quests, the entrance of a dungeon suddenly appeared," explained Alexander.
'This kid find a new god! This is the reason why Alcatraz said to me that I will get many customers if I come with him!' Samuel thought to himself.
"Anyway, can you show me the great sword that you got, sweetie?" asked Alcatraz to Zandra.
She immediately came out of her home after hearing his father's request. Alcatraz followed his daughter afterward.
Without a moment of hesitation, Zandra immediately brought her sword out of her inventory. She decided to swing it to show off to her father and the other others.
'My daughter can swing this kind of sword at this age easily!? This means that her future will be boundless!' he thought to himself as he observed.
"How was it, dad?" asked Zandra as she panted after showing what she can do to her father.
"Magnificent! From now own, I will train you myself, sweetie!" said Alcatraz with a proud look on his face.
Zandra could not help but smile and blush upon hearing her father. "Okay, dear. You can bring that in again. Let's go back for now," said Hilda with a smile.
No one dared not follow Hilda as she was saying those words with a smile. Although they still want to continue, all of them decided to go back inside the house without saying a word.
'There is still tomorrow for this,' Alcatraz thought to himself as he smiled at his wife.
As they come inside, Samuel was looking at Alcatraz while thinking, 'So the INFAMOUS Alcatraz is servitude to his beautiful wife. Well, I guess her real identity is much scarier than he is so this is pretty much normal.'
Upon realizing his gaze, Alcatraz said to Samuel with an intimidating tone, "What are you looking at!?" Samuel just smiled at him in response.
"Okay, kids. We will talk about this matter with you in the morning. Let's rest for now because we spent the long day traveling,' said Alcatraz with a tone composure.
"Good night, everyone!"
"Good night, boss and everyone!"
After that exchange, all of the people under the house of Alexander decided to sleep.

Just like that, the morning came. The birds sang as the sun smiled unto the world so everyone in the Banario Village began to wake up one by one.
"Rise and shine, you kids! We need to start our training now!" said Alcatraz with a smile.
The three kids, who Alexander recruited to his kingdom. immediately woke up and prepared even though they were still sleepy.
"Good morning, boss' father! Where is the boss?" asked Oliver and the two kids beside him.
Upon hearing them, Alcatraz immediately rushed toward his son's room without a moment of hesitation. As usual, Alexander was still sleeping very soundly on his bed.
"WAKE UP, ALEXANDER!" shouted Alcatraz upon reaching the side of his son's bed.
"Wha-what!?" said Alexander in shock as he rose from his bed.
"There are now people under your responsibility! You need to be responsible now!" said Alcatraz with a resolute expression.
"Upon hearing his father, Alexander immediately said as he stood up, "Thank you for your advice, dad!"
"Good morning, boss!" said the three kids from the slum as Alexander exited his room.
"Good morning, you guys! Let's start our morning training!" said Alexander with a smile.
The three did not refuse their boss so they decided to follow him in the yard of the house. On there, they began to jog around the house.
In the world of Terra, there are numerous ways to be powerful. The first and known method is to do missions that would result in gaining experience points which will lead to a level up. The second way is to consume an item produced by the god and goddess. The last way is the most simple one. One can increase their status by training.
One can train the Strength stats by training one's muscle. People can train their intelligence by gaining new knowledge like reading from a book. This is why Alexander and the others were training.
"Big bros, big sis! Let me join your training too!" said Zandra who is still wiping up her eyes.
Upon hearing him, Alexander shouted in response, "Let's go, Zandra! Try to keep up with us, okay?"
Upon hearing his big brother, Zandra immediately ran toward them and she was able to keep up with them.
'As expected of the Supreme General!' Alexander and the other three kids thought to themselves upon seeing Zandra's capabilities.
After a few hours, Hilda was able to finish making dinner so she decided to call everyone to eat. "The breakfast is ready, everyone! You can stop the training for a moment! There is still time for that!"
Upon hearing her, Alexander and the others immediately finished their morning training. Before going to the table, they decided to wipe the sweats that were in their body as a result of their training.
They happily ate the foods that Hilda prepared for them without a care or whatsoever. In the middle of their meal, Samuel arrived as they were eating.
"Where did you go?" asked Alcatraz upon seeing his entrance.
Samuel just smiled and said in response to him, "I was searching for a place to set up my new shop here in Banario Village! It seems like the kingdom's soldiers only have a few soldiers stationed here so my business can be easily established!"
"Let's talk about the business after the meal, okay? Samuel, you must be starving! Come join us here at breakfast!" said Hilda with an easy-going tone.
Upon hearing Alexander's mother, Samuel said in response, "Okay, I am much obliged, your h-!"
All of a sudden, Samuel stopped on what he was about to say because the moment he was about to finish saying the last part of his sentence, he was stared at and pressured by Hilda and Alcatraz alike.
