After explaining everything, Lucielle tapped on the table in front with her fingers and said, "Chen Yifan… Hmm… It's going to be troublesome."
"Yes." Alex nodded his head lightly. "That guy's nothing but a hot piece of trouble."
"Indeed." Lucielle didn't deny it as Alex really was right.
Chen Yifan caused nothing but a hotpot of troubles. There was nothing good about him and he was absolutely hated by the Chinese government as well as Blesseds and Evil Blesseds around the world.
Despite many wanting to kill him, he was damn strong and nobody was even able to touch his hair. It was for this exact reason that there was an Emperor title etched onto him.
In the far future, during the apocalypse, Chen Yifan was one of the only few survivors and that said a lot about him.
Coaxing him into getting on their side would be a challenge, but nothing impossible.
Alex knew what Chen Yifan wanted and what his weakness was.
He didn't say it to Lucielle, but he had his plans to get that guy to be their ally.
The reason Alex didn't say his plans were to protect Lucielle. The more a person knew, the greater the risk of them getting hurt. It was not the normal Earth anymore and secrets were best kept hidden sometimes.
Alex discussed a few things with Lucielle and in mid conversation, took her to the couch and sat together.
As the conversation came to an end, Alex decided to let loose and relax for a bit.
He hugged Lucielle from behind and resting his head on her shoulder, said in a soft tone, "All of that aside, I have something important to tell you."
Lucielle leaned back in Alex's embrace and patting his head, asked, "What is it?"
"I'm together with Marcelle as well." Alex dropped the bombshell suddenly.
Lucielle raised her eyebrows in surprise and Alex expected her to be angry, but she wasn't.
Lucielle was merely surprised and there wasn't any other feeling present. She had expected this to happen sooner or later for some reason.
"I see. Who proposed?" Lucielle asked calmly.
Alex shook his head slightly and answered, "Nobody did. We just got together."
"Is she happy?"
"You should ask her yourself."
There was silence for a while as their conversation came to an end.
The two didn't speak and just basked in each other's warmth.
After a while, Lucielle got up and stretching slightly, turned to look at Alex and said with a smile, "You gave me quite the work to do. Anyway, I'll finish it up and let's go on a date. You, me, and Marcelle together."
Alex got up as well and gave Lucielle a light kiss on her lips. "Don't overwork yourself, alright?"
Lucielle nodded and Alex left her office after finishing.
Getting out, Alex's relaxing time was over and he was calculating his next move.
Firstly, Alex gave a call to Carl and Samuel and asked them what they were up to.
Carl and Samuel were raiding dungeons at present and surprisingly, in just a month, both the two had amassed enough wealth from there to become millionaires in the real world.
Samuel's mother was really happy and so was the rest of his family.
Things were going great for him and he could

As Gyujin said those words, he began beating the living daylights out of Kelvin.
His face was disfigured in no time and he was barely hanging onto dear life while being unconscious.
The authorities couldn't afford to lose their star player like this and immediately stepped in to stop Gyujin.
However, at this point, Alex stood up from the spectators seat and lightly jumping from his spot, arrived right in front of the cage's entrance.
Alex was in a black hoodie and gray sweatpants. By no means did he look someone rich, but his overall charisma was enough for people to understand he definitely was someone of a big status.
The guards and the club officials that were charging towards the cage, Alex looked at them and said with a smile, "Calm your titties, dogs. Don't you want more money and viewerships?"
Saying so, Alex took out a big briefcase out of nowhere and threw it right in front of the charging guards.
The briefcase opened up and out of it appeared cash. Lots and lots of green cash.
The guards immediately got greedy as each bundle of money could sum up to tens of thousands of dollars.
They began picking up the paper thrown and looking at the officials in suits, Alex took out another briefcase and tossed it to them.
This case didn't have cash like the other one, instead it contained special items that would only interest Blesseds.
The briefcase didn't open up like before and the officials had to do it themselves. As they had a look at the inside, they were shocked out of their minds and gazed up to look at Alex.
Alex shook his hand and said, "Let this deathmatch continue. You'll find someone like Kelvin again anyway."
The officials couldn't help but nod. That was true. They were really just charging right now to save their star player, but it was not like they couldn't have another one anytime soon.
There were quite a few ready already to replace Kelvin but weren't given a chance to fight against him as the club needed those people for more viewerships.
Such underground fight clubs also wouldn't take place if they didn't have a few Blesseds in their ranks. To do anything illegal in the world, a solid connection with influential people was needed.
The items Alex thus provided were enough to shut these guys up and let the guy go.
On Gyujin's side, he totally turned Kelvin's face into paste. It was a scene far more gruesome than what Kelvin usually did.
The spectators were too shocked to even gasp and just stared at the thing happening in front of them. This was a sight they thought would appear only once in a lifetime and tried to burn the scene in their minds.
Gyujin's face was really serious as he finished off Kelvin. The betrayal his friend had suffered was far too distasteful and something which should've never happened.
Memories of his past flashed in front of Gyujin's eyes as he beat Kelvin.
Gyujin was a countryside kid and so was his friend. Both shared lots of happy moments but after they hit puberty, his friend developed an interest in combat sports.
The interest turned into a hobby which then turned into a profession.
His friend shifted to Seoul for better opportunities and being close friends, Gyujin followed along.
Eventually, Gyujin's friend won the regionals and went to nationals in combat sports. Then he went international and was finally noticed by the underground fight clubs.
Asian representation was far too less and as his friend needed money as well to support his sickly parents, he accepted the deathmatch offer and signed a year long contract.
He didn't say this to Gyujin as it would end up worrying him. It was a well kept secret and it was Gyujin himself who found out about it while scrolling through social media.
Before Gyujin could react though, his friend was already killed.
In grief, Gyujin promised to slaughter everyone involved, but kept his calm despite being really broken.
He signed a contract as well with the same fight club and here was, starting with his revenge.
Gyujin's friend, he had done nothing wrong. That guy was really good and was winning one match after another, but since the majority of the audience weren't Asians, he wasn't well liked.
The fight clubs were losing viewerships due to him and having no choice, the fight clubs decided to eliminate him for once and for all.
Nothing mattered to these guys other than viewerships as the money they made was not in hundreds or millions, but it was in the fricking billions!
All untaxed money, something which went straight into their pockets and made them ultra rich.
Gyujin's friend was first drugged skillfully and in the match, he wasn't able to perform optimally and ended up getting killed by Kelvin.
Kelvin gained more popularity from his kill and eventually, the viewerships came back.
Alex knew of this story due to the second regression.
Gyujin was a literal undead. This guy never really died despite there being many murder attempts happening to him.
In the current scenario, Gyujin would've been apprehended by the officials, but he would have the spectators' attention and would be cheered on for his killer moves.
