Needless to say, Wisteria was clearly taken aback by what Alexander had just said. He wanted to become a teacher in exchange for giving Wisteria some money? No matter which way one will look at it, there's something definitely wrong with this guy!
"You want me to help you become a teacher? Hmph, there is no way that I will do it for you!" Wisteria quickly replied as her left hand hovered towards the bracelet on her right wrist.
Since this guy was already suspicious, Wisteria realized that she had no choice now but to use her wrist phone to have Alexander out of her sight. Even if her phone was one of the older and outdated versions, it still had the capability to connect to the Galactic Network and all of its affiliate members. With this phone, Wisteria was sure that she can contact the proper authorities that can arrest Alexander.
All that she had to do now was to tap her wrist phone trice in order to send a distress call.
But before her hand can even approach her wrist phone, a slight 'ding' sound came out of the phone, which effectively froze her on her tracks.
"???" This ding sound was the 'notification sound' of her wrist phone, which just like the other phones, indicates a change in Wisteria's personal account.
"Hoho… you seem to have received a notification now. Why don't you look at it first?" Alexander said in a smug tone as he crossed his arms. He seemed to have not noticed Wisteria's attempt to have him arrested as no traces of panic could be seen on his face. "That notification might mean something good for you…"
"Gulp."
Wisteria was not sure why, but she found herself extremely nervous as she looked at her wrist phone. She had the feeling that if she opens her phone, the way that her life is going now will drastically change. Add the fact that Alexander was present when this notification appeared, and Wisteria found herself more and more dreadful of her phone.
"…"
In the end, her temptation overrode her cautiousness as she placed her index finger on her phone.
"Xing."
The screen on her wrist phone opened up with a bright glow as it displayed its contents to Wisteria.
If she had the newer versions of the wrist phone, she could enjoy the 3-d holographic features that they had. But her phone was not like that, so she could only use the 2-d version.
"…"
Instead of seeing the usual line of apps and games on her wrist phone, what Wisteria saw was a bold, uppercase message strewn all over the phone's screen.
"Thud."
Wisteria's body almost fell to the ground as for a second, as what she saw on her phone made her slightly lose control of her body.
Her hands could not help but shake as she brought her eyes closer to the phone screen. She appeared to be trying to confirm if what she was seeing was real, although moving her eyes closer cannot do anything like that.
A few more seconds passed by in this way before Wisteria pulled back. She then went back to her battle pose earlier as she looked back at Alexander, who was still standing on his original place.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
"…"
This time, there was no more hostility on Wisteria's face. She only had expressions of awe and fear, which were all directed at Alexander himself.
Her lips also started to tremble at this point, as it appeared as if she was struggling to say something to Alexander right now.
The man himself waited patiently for Wisteria to talk, and fortuatnely for everyone, Wisteria managed to talk after a few more seconds of indecisive silence.
"You… how did you manage to pay half of my debts? And why did you do that?" Wisteria asked out as she displayed the written words on her wrist phone towards Alex.

"Oh, I just deposited money in your account. It's just as simple as that." Alexander replied as he shrugged his shoulders. "I just happened to have a lot of money, so I decided to pay some of it for your debts. That's just so kind of me, right?"
"I don't care if you are kind or not! What you just did here… is something that should not happen that easily!" Wisteria then jabbed her finger at her phone as she glared at Alexander. "Look at this! How could you have this much money! Only people in the higher-ups can dish out this kind of money from their pockets! Don't tell me that you are a higher-up yourself? But if you were indeed a higher-up, then what the hell are you doing here, applying for a job that is not suited for a rich person like you! You... your actions here did not make me happier at all. Your actions just made me more suspicious of you!"
"You say that, but I can feel that you are happy to have lost half of your debt. Don't lie to me, Miss Wisteria. If you were alone here, you would be jumping in joy already." Alexander replied with a smile as he just waved off Wisteria's questions and threats. "As for where my money came from, I will not tell that to you. Just accept that fact that I paid for half of your debts."
"You…"
"Now that you have seen my financial prowess, you must be tempted right now to accept my offer. After all, I have paid for half of your debts already." Alex said these words in a confident tone, which as usual, had irked Wisteria once more.
"Hehehe, Miss Wisteria, as long as you help me get hired as a teacher, I will pay for the remaining half of your debts." Alexander continued to say as he puffed out his chest. "So what it will be, Miss Wisteria? Will you accept my deal or not? This will be your only chance to accept a deal like this from me, so you better think about your decision properly…"
"…."

3 HOURS LATER.
Inside a luxurious looking apartment, two comfortably dressed figures could be seen seating on a cozy sofa. One of these figures was the guy talking to Wisteria earlier, while the other one was a cold-looking, black-haired female.
Both of them were sitting closely with each other, with their bodies in close contact.
Their arms could also be seen hanging on each other's shoulder, with their heads only having a negligible distance with each other.
These two appeared to be sharing an intimate moment right now, with a satisfied smile visible on the guy's face.
As for the other figure, she only stared at the guy with an impassive expression, as if she was waiting for him to say something.
"So Alex, what did that teacher say?" The female asked as she tightened her hold on Alex. "Did she accept your offer?"
"Hehe, of course she accepted my offer. Don't underestimate the power of debt." Alex replied as he ignored the female's tight hug. "People will just do everything to resolve those things."
"So you are hired now as a teacher at the General Arthur Institute?" The female replied as she kept her tight hug on Alex. "Did you receive anything else from that woman?"
"Well I am not yet exactly hired." Alex replied as he tilted his head. "Wisteria said that it was impossible to just get me hired on the spot. So she used some of her connections to set me up for an interview tomorrow. That went well, so all that I had to do now was to impress my interviewers in order to get the job. Oh, and she did not offer anything else to me."
"Knowing you Alex, I am sure that will be just easy for you."
"Hahaha, of course it will be easy Alina. I am a master of bulls***ting after all!"
"…Yeah, I can testify to that." The black-haired woman, who turned out the be actually Alina, let out a sigh as she let go of Alex. She stood up from the sofa as she began to walk towards the kitchen.
"Hey Alina... I want to cuddle with you more. Why are you leaving now?" Alex complained forlornly as he stared at Alina's slender legs, which were accentuated by the black shorts that she was wearing. "I still need more of your thighs near me!"
"…I'm hungry Alex. I want to eat already." Asteria quickly replied as she ignored Alex's pleading stare. "And no, you cannot ogle at my legs while I eat. You know that I don't want any disturbance while I am eating, so don't push your luck here."
"…Okay." This reply by Alina left Alex with no choice but to slump back on his sofa sadly. Alina naturally saw this happening, and she could not help but feel irritated as she saw the pitiful look on Alex's face.
"Alex, instead of sulking there, why don't you prepare for your interview tomorrow?" Alina said as she ltt out a sigh. She was filling her mouth with scallops right now, which made her sigh sound muffled. "Didn't you say that entering that Institute will be vital on our Mission against Emperor Litch? Since that place is important, then you must do your best to infiltrate it!"
"Don't worry about that, Alina. I will pass the interview tomorrow." Alex replied as he closed his eyes. "And besides, even if I fail, I still have set some countermeasures in place."
"You have countermeasures for that? Really?"
"In the event that I fail that interview, I will just get another job in that institute." Alex replied as he rolled over the sofa. He planted his cheeks right at the spot where Alina was sitting on earlier, which made Alina glower at him. "A janitor or a technician will also be good for me. But of course, being a teacher will be for the best."
"…Good luck with that then." Alina replied as she shook her head. Her eyes then suddenly narrowed as he gave Alex a pointed stare. "So how about us Alex? What will you make me do? What will you make Queen Mother and Professor Frances do? "
"Oh, of course you had things to do." Alex replied as he kept his head on the sofa. He appeared to be satisfied with his current positon, which served make Alina irritated. "You don't need to worry about that. I have it all sorted already."
"Alex, you should have seen the faces of Queen Mother and Professor Frances when they realized that they were basically useless in the Immortal World. They were beyond livid for becoming like that." Alina interjected as her tone slowly turned wistful. "Of course the fact that that world was just a vacation lessened their negative feelings, but they still were not happy with how things had went there. So Alex, make sure that everyone of us gets to do what we can actually do."
"I see. So that's how they're feeling huh. I now understand why they looked at me like that earlier."
"So what will you do now, Alex? Will you change your plans to accommodate us?"
"Alina, I don't need to change any of my plans. I actually had plans for you three regarding tomorrow" Alex replied as he removed his head from the sofa. "I was planning to tell these to you three later night, but because of what you said, I think I should tell it to you right now."
Alex then stood up from the sofa as his head swiveled towards Alina. A serious expression could be seen on his face as he stared at Alina, who kept on eating under his gaze. "Alina, call Queen Mother and Professor Frances right now. I shall tell you three about your roles for tomorrow already. If they won't go, then you can force them to come here."
"Now that'sh what I want to hear from you." Alina replied enthusiastically as she stuffed the remaining dinner on her mouth. "Jusht wait for me. Thish will jusht take a shecond."
Alina then disappeared as she activated her space power, leaving Alex alone in the apartment.
"Sigh... out of all the scenarios that I could expect, the one that I am dreading the most was the one that happened. What a drag…" After Alina left, Alex started to talk to himself as he sat back on the sofa. He kneaded his temple in a gentle manner, as if he was trying to expel something out of his head.
"That damned Emperor… he actually conquered this world! And from the looks of it, he had recovered substantially from his injuries! Tsk, this will not be a great world for us…" Alex slowly said as he let out a sigh. He closed his eyes in exasperation as he did his best to calm his agitated nerves.
"With this world under Emperor Litch's rule, he can easily see me if I make a wrong move. So I can only do everything here carefully. If I fail, my life will surely be in jeopardy again!"

He planted his cheeks right at the spot where Alina was sitting on earlier, which made Alina glower at him. "A janitor or a technician will also be good for me. But of course, being a teacher will be for the best.""Good luck with that then." Alina replied as she shook her head. Her eyes then suddenly narrowed as he gave Alex a pointed stare. "So how about us Alex? What will you make me do? What will you make Queen Mother and Professor Frances do? ""Oh, of course you had things to do." Alex replied as he kept his head on the sofa. He appeared to be satisfied with his current positon, which served make Alina irritated. "You don't need to worry about that. I have it all sorted already.""Alex, you shouldhave seen the faces of Queen Mother and Professor Franceswhen they realized that they were basically useless in the Immortal World. They were beyond livid for becoming like that." Alina interjected as her tone slowly turned wistful. "Of course the fact that that world was just a vacation lessened their negative feelings, but they still were not happy with how things had went there. So Alex, make sure that everyone of us gets to do what we can actually do.""I see. So that's how they're feeling huh. I now understand why they looked at me like that earlier.""So what will you do now, Alex? Will you change your plans to accommodate us?""Alina, I don't need to change any of my plans.I actually had plans for you three regarding tomorrow" Alex replied as he removed his head from the sofa. "I was planning to tell these to you three later night, but because of what you said, I think I should tell it to you right now."Alex then stood up from the sofa as his head swiveled towards Alina. A seriousexpression could be seen on his face as he stared at Alina, who kept on eating under his gaze. "Alina, call Queen Mother and Professor Frances right now. I shall tell you three about your roles for tomorrow already. If they won't go, then you can force them to come here." "Now that'sh what I want to hear from you." Alina replied enthusiastically as she stuffed the remaining dinner on her mouth. "Jusht wait for me. Thish will jusht take a shecond."Alina then disappeared as she activated her space power, leaving Alex alone in the apartment."Sigh... out of all the scenarios that I could expect, the one that I am dreading the most was the one that happened. What a drag" After Alina left, Alex started to talk to himself as he sat back on the sofa. He kneaded his temple in a gentle manner, as if he was trying to expel something out of his head."That damned Emperor he actually conquered this world! And from the looks of it, he had recovered substantially from his injuries! Tsk, this will not be a great world for us" Alex slowly said as he let outa sigh. He closed his eyes in exasperation as he did his best to calm his agitated nerves."With this world under Emperor Litch's rule, he can easily see me if I make a wrong move. So I can only do everything here carefully. If I fail, my life will surely be in jeopardy again!"
