Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master

Bokunat Village.

Village chief's house.

The village chief respectfully let Alex inside his house and sit down on the chair.

"Please sit down first, savior. I will serve you something to drink before we talk."

Saying that, the village chief turned his eyes at his only daughter and said, "Nene, go to Nunoy's house and ask for some fruit wine for our savior."

The young girl who's been staring at Alex all this time finally reacted after hearing her father's words.

"Ah! O-okay, father!"

After saying that, Nene hurriedly went out of the house to do his father's errand.

Seeing his daughter leave, the village chief sighed.

Then he turned back to Alex and bowed down.

"Once again, thank you very much for saving our village from the hands of those bandits."

His words are full of emotions, his heart is only filled with gratitude for this unknown savior of them.

Hearing that, Alex shook his head,

"It's no big deal. It was only a coincidence that I saved your village."

"The only reason why I came here was because that bandit messed with me."

Saying that, Alex told the story about Momoy and Kokoy to the village chief.

When the villaged chief heard the story, he sighed, "Momoy and Kokoy… those two are the troublemakers of this village in the past."

"Always causing problems wherever they go."

"Because of that, a lot of people don't look at them kindly."

"Unexpectedly, it was them who became the reason that our village was saved even though it wasn't through a good way."

Thinking of it, the village chief felt just how unexpected fate can do things.

Then, he looked again at Alex and said, "First, I would like to apologize on behalf of those two. Just like they said, they were indeed coerced by Ogura to do things for him."

He bowed for a while before lifting up his head and continuing.

"Next, even though it was just a coincidence, you have indeed saved us from the bandits so without a doubt, you're our savior, a hero."

While saying that, the eyes of the old village chief can't help but shine brightly.

Seeing the almost fanatical eyes of the old man, Alex didn't know what more to say.

Then suddenly, the village chief seriously said, "As the savior of our village, it's just right for us to reward you."

"That's why, please wait here for a second, I will grab something from the bedroom first."

Without waiting for Alex to react, the village chief always went inside the bedroom.

Watching the old man, Alex shook his head and let out a helpless sigh.

After waiting for a few minutes, the old village chief came back, holding an old wooden box in his hands.

"Sorry, it took me a while to find it. Thankfully, I still have it."

Sitting down on a chair opposite to Alex, the old man handed him the box.

With a smile, he said, "Take it. Although it's not much, this is the most precious thing that I could give you as a reward."

Seeing the sincerity of the village chief, Alex, who was originally planning to refuse any reward, hesitated.

If he keeps on refusing, the village chief might feel insecure about the fact that they can't give a satisfactory reward to him.

So after thinking about it, Alex sighed and accepted the box.

Looking at the box in his hands, he asked, "What is in this? Can I open it?"

"Yes, of course. Please open it!" Replied the village chief.

Nodding his head, Alex opened the box without putting much expectations on this so-called reward.

After taking off the lid, what appeared on Alex's sight was a black unknown 'coin'.

Tilting his head, Alex picked it up and looked at the village chief, asking, "What is this, village chief?"

Hearing him ask, the village chief smiled mysteriously.

"When I first saw you, I guessed that you might be an adventurer, is that right?"

The village chief suddenly asked.

Without thinking much, Alex nodded, "Yes, I am indeed an adventurer."

"Although, I'm honestly just a newbie adventurer."

After Alex said the first half of his words, the village chief nodded his head as if he already expected it.

But when he heard the latter half of his words, the village chief froze.

Then slowly turning to Alex, in disbelief, he asked, "A-are you serious?"

"Yeah, is it surprising?"

The village chief honestly replied, "Yes, very much so. With the prowess that you've shown us, I thought that you're already a veteran adventurer!"

Alex smiled after hearing that.

Then he said, "Why did you even ask if I know about dungeons, village chief?"

With Alex asking, the village chief can only forget about Alex's seniority as an adventurer and went back to their original topic.

Fixing his eyes on the 'coin' in Alex's hand, the village chief said, "That is because, the thing in your hand is actually… a token necessary to enter a hidden dungeon!"

Immediately, Alex was stunned.

As a [Dungeon Master], Alex knows about dungeons more than any normal people.

Hidden dungeons, unlike normal dungeons that were created and owned by dungeon masters, formed naturally on their own.

There are various reasons why a hidden dungeon could be formed.

It could be because of a powerful relic.

Or maybe because the mana in one place have become too dense and the world decided to make a hidden dungeon.

Anyway, it was widely known that hidden dungeons are places filled with all kinds of treasures.

The monsters there also give more experience points than monsters from the outside or ordinary dungeons.

What's more special about hidden dungeons are the rewards if you manage to clear it.

Anyway, at this point, Alex has been greatly surprised after hearing what the village chief said.

As if to confirm his words, Alex used [Inspect] on the black token on his hand.

[Fortune Dungeon Token]

[Rating: Legendary]

[Details: A token used to enter the hidden dungeon 'Fortune Dungeon'.]
