Narrowing his eyes, he thought, \'Interesting. It seems like there\'s a hidden conspiracy happening here, huh.\'

With his interest piqued, Alex listened more attentively to Chichi\'s words.

"I was standing behind the counter at that time, cowering in fear from the aggressive noble, when both Sister Paula and Sister Azul came out of their offices."

When Chichi said this, she felt ashamed before her expression turned into admiration as he spoke of Azul and Paula\'s names.

Chichi continued, "Sister Paula\'s eyes were fixed onto the aggressive noble when she appeared."

"On the other hand,  I saw that the unknown nobleman smirked and showed a triumphant expression on his face when Sister Azul and Sister Paula came out."

While saying that, Chichi gnashed her teeth in anger.

Seeing her reaction, Alex can\'t help but say, "It seems like you\'re close with the owners of Dragon Diner, huh."

Chichi nodded and said, "Sister Paula and Sister Azul are both kind people. All I can say is that they were the ones who helped me back when I really really needed it."

When she was saying that, the anger on Chichi\'s face immediately turned into smiles.

After a moment, Chichi continued, "Anyway, that nobleman seems to know both Sister Paula and Sister Azul."

"When he saw them, he said a few things but Sister Paula and Sister Azul only ignored him with a frown on their faces."

"After a couple of tries of getting a response from them to no avail, that nobleman said something before leaving."

"Hmm? And what was it?" Alex curiously asked.

Frowning, Chichi said, "\'Still acting aloof even though your old man is just a cripple now, huh. Wait until everyone gets here, we will give you real happiness then.\' is what he said."

"I can still vividly remember the unsightly expression on both Sister Paula and Sister Azul\'s faces when they heard that."

Alex rubbed his chin thoughtfully before saying, "After that, they decided to close down their restaurant, is that right?"

Chichi nodded, "Even I don\'t know the actual reason. But from what I can see, it was all because of that nobleman from last time."

Alex nodded in agreement.

After a moment of silence, Alex turned his eyes back to Chichi and said, "By the way, I have something else I want to know."

"What is it, sir?"

"Last time, that Sister Paula and Sister Azul you\'re talking about, they were going after me, right. I just want to know, why?"

Alex asked.

"Oh, that. It was because they needed someone who could acquire a dragon\'s skill. They said that it has something to do with their father." Chichi casually said.

When she said that, Chichi turned her eyes to Alex with a serious look on her face and said, "Since I answered all your questions, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Sure, tell me about it." Alex said without hesitation. 

Honestly, Alex can already guess the favor that Chichi wants to ask him based on their conversation.

And just like he expected, Chichi said, "Can you please go to Sister Paula and Sister Azul. Please help them with the things that they need from you."

Chichi even bowed down her head at Alex, hoping that he would agree to her request.

Smiling gently, Alex said, "Get up. I will do you this favor. I will try to see as well what\'s really happening with them and help if I can."

Chichi immediately lifted up his head and with shining eyes, she said, "Great! Thank you so much, sir!"

"It\'s a small thing." Alex said dismissively. 

"But before that, we\'re all feeling hungry now so, we\'ll eat here first, right?"

Alex looked at the four kids and they nodded.

Hearing that, Chichi stood up and said, "Then, I will take your orders now."

With that, Alex, Angelica, and the three brothers started ordering.

After a while, Chichi went back to the counter and handed Alex and the other\'s orders to the kitchen.

While waiting for food, Alex chatted with the kids for a while.

While they were on the road in the past few days, Alex inevitably grew some bond with everyone and right now, Alex treats them all as his younger siblings.

As an orphan, it felt a bit strange at first but gradually, Alex started learning what a family is from them.

So, right now, Alex wants to give the kids a happy life.

And since he took them from their \'home\' he is really responsible now for them.

Alex watches the kids as they laugh and giggle while talking to each other.

Feeling some kind of warmth coming from his heart, Alex thought, \'I guess, the first thing that I have to prioritize is their education, huh?\'

\'Growing up ignorant is not good for them after all.\'

With that in mind, Alex then thought, \'But, where should I let them study? Should I bring them to Earth?\'

Since the quality of education is better and more advanced on Earth compared here in Alter Dimension, Alex can\'t help but want to let them study there.

However, this is a big matter that involves the lives of the kids so he decided to think long and hard about it.

Anyway, while such a thing is going through Alex\'s head, Chichi comes carrying a couple of trays containing their food.

"Here\'s your order!"

Once all the food is placed on the table, the kids can\'t help but stare at it with hunger in their eyes.

But even though they are already feeling hungry, they didn\'t just start eating the moment they saw the food.

They first looked at Alex and waited for him.

Noticing that, Alex didn\'t make them wait.

"Well then, let\'s eat!"

With Alex\'s signal, the kids grabbed their spoon and immediately started eating.

Alex also didn\'t delay and started eating.

For a while, only the sound of them eating could be heard on their table.

Meanwhile, the people sitting around the restaurant can\'t help but glance in their direction from time to time.

More specifically, they are looking at Alex. 

"That man really looks handsome, don\'t you think?"

"Yeah, even as a man, I can feel his charisma from over here."

"I wonder what his name is."

"Do you come closer and maybe talk to him?"

"No, I don\'t know why but I feel too intimidated to go closer."

".."

Such conversations are all over the restaurant as every customer is looking at Alex.

Feeling their eyes on him, Alex acted like he didn\'t notice anything. 

Honestly, he already felt it when he came out of the Trial Tower this time.

His Charisma stat is starting to show great effects on his surroundings even if he just stands somewhere random.

People can\'t help themselves but to look at him again and again.

But even with all the eyes on him, Alex didn\'t feel shy or what not that he would probably feel if this was before.

Maybe it was also an effect of Charisma but Alex is really filled with confidence right now.

So, he ignored the stares from the others and just ate his food like how he would normally do.

After a while, Alex finished his food.

Raising his head, Alex looked at Angelica and her brothers, only to see that they didn\'t finish their food which is unusual. 

"Hmm? What? Did you guys not like the food?"

"N-no, Brother Zero."

Angelica was the one who answered, shaking her head in denial.

"Then why didn\'t you guys eat? Look, there\'s a lot of leftovers."

Angelica didn\'t even need to look to know that what Alex is saying is real.

Angelica sadly lowered her head and apologized, "I\'m sorry, Brother Zero. It\'s just that…"

Angelica lifted her head and looked at the surrounding people that were still looking at their table and didn\'t continue talking. 

When he saw that, Alex immediately realized what happened. 

Sighing, he said, "Well, don\'t mind it. Let\'s just buy some food that you guys can eat later, okay?"

As he said that, Alex patted her head to assure her that everything is alright.

He also did the same for Joel, Jojo, and Joey.

After that, Alex decided that they should leave now.

They stood up and walked to the counter.

The restaurant owner, along with Chichi, were standing there, attending to customers.

"Hello, how much is the food we ordered?" Alex asked Chichi.

"Please wait a second."

Alex took the order list from a cabinet on the counter and started computing. 

After a while, she raised her head and said, "It\'s a total of 2 silver coins and 45 bronze coins."

Alex took out two 3 silver coins from his pocket and placed it on the counter.

Chichi picked it up and was about to hand him the change when Alex suddenly said,

"You can keep the change. It\'s just a few bronzes anyway. Just treat it as my thanks for answering my questions earlier."

Chichi was a bit surprised and immediately thanked him.

"Ah! Thank you so much, sir!"
