BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28 Start Of The Rise
Slime Plains.
Alex killed slimes non-stop while sitting on Ferri\'s back comfortably.
At the speed they were hunting, it took less than half an hour for the total number of slimes that they killed to reach the hundreds.
Meaning, his luck points also broke through the hundreds!
[Luck Points: 235]
From 53 points, it shoots directly to 235 points!
A total of 182 points increase!
Seeing the big increase in the number of luck points on hia panel, Alex smiled satisfiedly.
"This much luck points should be enough to ensure that nothing will go wrong with tonight\'s lottery show."
Alex said.
Tapping Ferri\'s neck, Alex ordered for him to stop.
"Ferri, let\'s end our hunt for today. I still have things to do so I will be leaving you again for now."
Ferri obediently stopped and lowered himself to the ground, helping Alex get down easily.
When Alex got down, he patted Ferri\'s head and said, "I will leave now, Ferri."
"You go hide somewhere around here for now until I come back."
As a Leader class monster, Ferri understood Alex\'s words and nodded.
Seeing that, Alex smiled.
The more he\'s with Ferri, the more Alex feels fond of him.
Although Ferri was a wild monster before and was forcefully controlled by him using [Monster Manipulation], Alex still got the feeling that it was like a tamed dog.
Thinking of that, Alex chuckled while looking at Ferri.
After that, Alex disappeared in the Slime Plains and appeared back at the alley not far away from school.
He scanned his surroundings to see if anyone was around and only after confirming that there\'s none did he leave.
Alex walked towards the nearest sweepstakes store unhurriedly.
It\'s only five o\'clock in the afternoon at this time and the lottery draw starts at 9PM.
So, there\'s no reason for him to hurry.
After a couple of minutes, Alex arrived at the sweepstakes.
The place was relatively empty, so Alex went to the counter.
"Good afternoon, I would like to place a bet on the lotto."
Alex said to the guy playing with his phone behind the counter.
The guy looked up at him unenthusiastically before grabbing a lotto paper and handing it to Alex.
"Here, fill it with the numbers of your choice."
Alex took it and scanned for a second.
There\'s a total of 45 numbers on the lotto paper from 1 to 45 and Alex has to choose 6 from them.
Alex picked up a pen on the side and closed his eyes.
Then he raised the pen above the paper with the tip pointed at it.
Silently, Alex turned on his \'Fortune\' state and once again, the world seems to turn everything in his favor.
Without hesitation, Alex let go of the pen and it fell on the paper.
Tak!
When he heard the sound that the pen has already fallen, without opening his eyes, he picked it up and then let it go again after raising it above the paper.
Tak!
Tak!
Tak!
…
Alex did that six times before turning off \'Fortune\'.
Opening his eyes, the first thing that came into Alex\'s sight is the weird look that the guy behind the counter is giving him.
Alex just glanced at him before turning his eyes to the lotto paper.
On it, six numbers have black dots on it.
18, 06, 13, 24, 21, 02.
Obviously, it was the numbers that the pen fell into.
Alex smiled.
Then, without a word, he circled those numbers before handing it back to the counter.
At the same time, he took an old tattered wallet from his pocket.
Opening it, there\'s only ₱50 inside which is the last money that Alex has in his hands.
(₱50 = $1)
Alex took it and also gave it to the counter.
"Here\'s the payment."
After taking the money, the guy behind the counter started processing Alex\'s lotto paper with the sweepstakes machine.
Soon, Alex got his sweepstakes entry receipt and a ₱30 change.
After checking if everything was correct, Alex left the store directly and headed back home.
Right now, Alex is feeling some excitement in his heart.
After all, if this works, he will get a huge amount of money.
For a guy like him who\'s dirt poor, it will be life changing!
From searching scraps at the dumpsite to living comfortably for the rest of his life without the need to work.
That\'s such an unimaginable change!
Only those with great luck could possibly get something like that.
And to Alex, luck is now something under his control!
When he arrived at his house, Alex first went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After he finished, he went to the kitchen to cook something with the few remaining ingredients available in the fridge.
By the time he finished, it was already 8:30 in the evening.
With the food in hand, Alex sat on the sofa and patiently waited for the lottery program while eating his dinner.
After a while, the clock hit 9PM and the program started.
[Good evening to our nationwide viewers, the lotto program is now about to start!]
Seeing that, Alex started to feel excited.
Holding onto his lottery ticket, he said, "This is the moment of truth."
Alex raised the tv volume to make sure that he won\'t miss anything.
Under Alex\'s unblinking eyes, the show continued.
[Viewers, since no one won the lotto yesterday, our prize money is now 294 million!]
[Now, without further ado, let\'s draw our first number!]
When the host said that, Alex turned on \'Fortune\' immediately.
After a few seconds, a number ball was shown on the screen.
[For our first number, number 18.]
When Alex saw the first number being shown on the tv, his lips slowly turned into a smile.
"Looks like things are working out just right."
Alex continued watching while filled with anticipation in his heart.
Then, without fail, the next few numbers are all the numbers that Alex chose!
When the last number was finally shown, Alex immediately turned off \'Fortune\'.
And then, excitement rushed through his body and he started cheering!
"WOOHOO!! I REALLY WON!"
From his childhood to now, Alex rarely let go of his emotions like this.
To live, he needed to be strong, to be cold, and to not show any unnecessary feelings.
But now, in the face of winning a huge amount of money.
At the chance to finally change his life, Alex wasn\'t able to keep it in anymore.
The excitement that he is feeling is more than when he discovered the Alter Dimension!
It was because Alter Dimension felt too unreal at the time.
A magical experience that he doesn\'t really sync into his reality!
However, the experience of winning the lottery feels real.
This is because this is his world, the real world where he was born in, grew up in, and is living in!
Unconsciously, a tear escaped from Alex\'s eyes.
He\'s really feeling emotional.
After tens of years of hardships, he now finally has the chance to rise in the real world!
At the same time as he was experiencing an emotional roller coaster, the host on tv also announced that someone has finally won the lotto!
