"I'm already fine" Alicia smiled.

"That's good then" Alex relieved.

In the afternoon, the six of them meet together again.

"Mr Alex, this is our token of gratitude for saving all of us yesterday" Rery give him all the core they got yesterday, not only the rank 3 minotaurs core but also the core they got when going back to surface. Even though Alex was weak, killing two hundred rank 2 or below monster was a piece of cake for him.

"No, Since Alicia was the one who want to go to 31st floor, I am the one who should apologize to you all. I'm sorry" Alex apologized, he decline all the core.

"Yesterday was my fault to endanger everyone. I'm sorry" Alicia was also apologized

"No, Princess and Mr Alex. If we decline to go to 31st floor, we might not get to that kind situation. This show our arrogance that almost resulting to death. We also apologize" Rery and the rest apologize.

"Since we all at fault, we will drop this matter at here." Alex said.

"That for the best" Rery nodded.

"Are you all going to the dungeon again?" Alex asked.

Rery and the rest discussed a bit, "We decided that was enough for us, we won't go to the dungeon again and enjoy the rest of this last week"

"I see" Alex took out 50 rank 4 cores "Please take this cores, this is my thanks for taking care Alicia this few weeks"

"This... we can't accept this" Rery want declined.

"Please don't reject this" Alex keep adamant to give them this core.

On the side, Firia was jealous. From the start to finished, it's all about Alicia in Alex's mouth. Is she become this insignificant? She thought.

After a while persuaded by Alex, They accepted.

"Since, we are not going to the dungeon anymore. How about we go to hunter guild to submit our core?" Rery suggested.

Alex look at Alicia, she nodded "Sure"

With Alicia confirmation, they go to hunter guild.

"Alex"

"What is it miss Firia?"

"Can...can we talk after this?"

Alex look at her face, she seems serious so he nodded, "Sure"

Firia nodded.

After a while, they arrived at the hunter guild.

Alex went to registration counter, since he was a gold rank hunter, he can exchange the core with all employee in every counter. So he go to the registration counter, since they are the one that he most familiar with.

Upon noticing Alex came by, Tina immediately greeted him.

"Good Afternoon Sir Alex"

"Good afternoon" Alex greeted her back.

"Are you going to exchange cores?"

"Yes"

"The guild master have an instruction, if you are going to exchange cores, we need to guide you to his room."

"This...But I am coming with them" Alex pointed at the rest of his member.

"Yes, please also come along"

"Then I need to trouble you then"

"This is my job, Please this way" she guide them.

The guild master was doing paperwork with Yuna his secretary.

'Knock Knock'

"Who is it?" the guild master said.

"This is Tina Sir, Sir Alex have come"

"Oh please come in, Yuna, open the door"

She opened the door, "Please"

"Miss Yuna, how have you been?" Alex smiled.

"I'm good thanks to you" Yuna smiled.

"Young Alex, you have come. Come here quickly" Guild master said.

"Guild master, we have met again" Alex smiled.

"Oh you come with Princess Alicia, and young miss Firia."

"Hello Uncle Bernard" Alicia smiled

"Greeting guild master" Firia greet him.

Guild master Bernard nodded, then he turned to the rest of them. "This is.."

"I am Rery Sir, Rery Siluart. This is my companion, Viola Acabart and Locko Macfian" Rery hurriedly introduced he and the rest.

"I see, young Rery, Young Viola, and Young Locko huh. Good day to you, and don't need to be nervous around me" Bernard smiled. "Yuna, please make us tea"

"Yes guild master" Yuna left to prepare tea

"Uncle, my Father send a regard to you. He miss when he was diving the dungeon with you"

"Haha... it's almost ten years from the last time we dive together"

"Guild master, why are you give that kind instruction" Alex suddenly asked.

"That Instruction?... Oh that, I am just worrying that I need to dismissed my employee again if you come."

"...." Alex was speechless. Alicia and Firia giggled, while the rest was confused.

"You are going to exchange the core right?" Bernard asked.

Alex nodded.

"Tina, Please call the teacher who in charge for today assessment"

"Yes" Tina left to call the teacher, not long after the teacher come in. Alex surprised, because the teacher who was in charge was the woman teacher which Alex often encounter.

The teacher was also surprised seeing Alex again. "You again?"

"Teacher, we meet again" Alex smiled.

They meet a few times, at their first encounter, Alex was seems like nobody. The next encounter was when he with Alicia. This shocked her, since he was standing beside a Princess then this mean his status was unordinary. She searched for his name and found him as the dean student. She was speechless with what she found.

This time, She meet him again and surprised once again. Normally for a student, she will accompanied them at the core counter to exchange their cores and she recorded them for assessment. But this time, the assessment was in the guild master office, this is a special treatment. And Alex was the one who targeted with this special treatment.

"Haiz, everytime I meet you. You will give me a surprise. I'm going to prepare my heart first so I won't get shocked again later"

"Haha, then let's get going. Who is going first? Alex was last alright?" Bernard said.

Alex nodded, he turned to the group.

"I'm first then" Locko was the first one.

"Sure, please put all of them in the basket over there" Bernard pointed at a slightly large basket since he look at Locko bag wasn't that big.

Locko put all his core in the basket. A few ten monster cores get inside the basket.

"30 rank 0 cores, 41 rank 1 cores, 23 rank 2 cores, 2 rank 3 cores, and ... 10 rank 4 cores." He looked at Alex who nodded.

"Their price was 32,050 copper coin" then he turned to Alex, "Though I already familiar with this event from academy since they always doing it each year. Giving cores to other student wasn't prohibited, many student have tried to bought them from another student or hunter for their own score

Though it's not prohibited, but I really won't recommend it as it might give a negative impact for the student. Of course, student didn't really want to sell it to another student, unless they certain they won't pass this examination. And also if they want to buy monster cores from hunter, many hunter still rejected it as we hunter guild will record how many monster the hunter already hunted.

If they sell them away to student, their achievement won't recorded in hunter guild. But of course, there are few hunter that agreed to sell though with an exorbitant price. That's why you guys, don't be big headed if you get the cores without your own strength"

"Yes" All of them said.

Guild master then turned to the woman teacher, "Teacher Farida, please"

The woman teacher name was Farida, She nodded "The points for those core are 420, summing up from your previous score, the total was 1380 points."

It's seems, Alicia and the rest was coming back periodically. Not like Alex who was a maniac, staying over a month in the dungeon.

"Thank you teacher" Locko was happy.

Alex whispered something to Alicia, "Alicia, how much the point we need to pass?"

"800 points" Alicia answered.

Alex nodded.

"Who is next?" Guild master asked.

This time Viola presented her cores "42 rank 0 cores, 53 rank 1 cores, 29 rank 2 cores, 2 rank 3 cores, and 15 rank 4 cores, the total was 47,506 copper"

"The points are 580. And the total was 1640 points" Farida said

"Thank you teacher" She thanked her politely.

"Next is me then" Rery bring all his cores.

"59 rank 0 cores, 67 rank 1 cores, 35 rank 2 cores, 3 rank 3 cores, and 25 rank 4 cores, the total was 78,197 copper"

"The points are 857, for a total of 1923 points"

"Thank you teacher"

Alex perplexed about something so he asked Alicia, "Alicia, what is exactly their relationship?"

"The rumor said, Acabart family engaged their daugther with Siluart family. They are Rery Siluart and Viola Acabart."

The relationship about this two seems wasn't that bad. So Alex nodded,

"As for Locko Macfian, Macfian family was a vassal of Siluart Family"

"I see"

"Then next is... who want to go first? Miss Firia or Princess Alicia?" Bernard asked.

"I'm next then" Firia said and give all her cores.

"56 rank 0 cores, 62 rank 1 cores, 27 rank 2 cores, 3 rank 3 cores, and 40 rank 4 cores, the total was 122,738 copper"

"The points are 1112 points, for a total of 2001 points"

The rank 4 monster cores was personally given by Alex. At first she was mad, because There seems only Alicia in his mind after going back to the surface so she rejected. But under his insistence, she reluctantly take it.

"Thank you teacher"

"Then next is me" Alicia said.

"59 rank 0 cores, 65 rank 1 cores, 25 rank 2 cores, and ... 100 rank 4 cores, the total was 302,077 copper"

Of course, the rank 4 cores was given by Alex. Firia bit her lips, Alex seems dote on Alicia the most, she was jealous.

"The points are 2289 points, for a total of 2907 points"

"Young Alex, this time it's your turn" Guild master said with a headache, he look at his oversized bag. Teacher Farida was also look at him with a headache, what is the surprise she will get now.

Alex rolled his bag down, many core rolling on the ground. But what shocking thing was there are no rank 3 or below core. That means, all the cores in Alex bag was rank 4 or rank 5 cores. Alex didn't bother to pick rank 3 or below core in the dungeon.
