Chapter 24: Change Must Happen!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the meal, Aurora began to clean the table.
Bruce sat on the sofa, looking at Aurora’s back as he fell into deep thought.
At this stage, everything he thought about was the same.
However, he was starting to worry. How would he deal with a B-rank crisis, or even worse, an A rank-crisis if the C-rank crisis he went through was already so dangerous?
In addition, he had had a strange feeling these past few days. His house was as cold as a cellar despite the fact that it was summer.
Bruce was sure that the air conditioner was not on, and it was not that his body could readjust the temperature.
What was even stranger was that he could see frost at the corner of his eyes, especially when night falls.
Although it was unexplainable, Bruce knew that it was definitely a house-leaving crisis.
It was enough to get Bruce on high alert. While the night fall, tiny ice crystals began to appear on the windows and glass which made his brow furrow.
What kind of crisis was it to have such a change on the weather.
He did not know.
But right now, the thing that worried him the most was his own home.
After all, there were more house-leaving crises to come. If he didn’t have a sturdy house, things would get complicated.
What he had to do now was to simplify all the complex problems.
Money? Not a problem.
His income was overflowing. With his calculations, he’d still have quite a huge daily sum despite his current spending.
Whether it was gold or silver jewelry or even luxury brands, Bruce could buy each of them in one day.
Imagine, Bruce was only level 3. If he continued to level up, the amount of income would double. Thus, he had achieved financial freedom.
However, he was in lack of points and a sturdy house, which was the biggest problem of all.
High-rise buildings? No. If there was another major earthquake, how many times could the building withstand it? Moreover, it would implicate others. Although he was no particularly interested in other people, there was no way that he would want to deliver them upon death’s doorstep.
Villa District? No. Every villa district had relatively average facilities. There were no huge supermarkets or convenience stores. Even if there were, they would not have the many things that Bruce needed. If it was a villa in the center of the city, it would most likely be a duplex villa, which no different from an apartment building.
But if he wanted a standalone villa, he had to go to the district.
Isn’t this a non-stop cycle?
Bruce had viewed a couple of houses before, but they were either too far away, or not available.
This was also one of the reasons why Bruce did not want to go out.
Other than the unsolved housing problem, Bruce had issues with the points
For now, Bruce earned points in a very simple manner.
He could only rely on inviting people into his home and the house-leaving crises.
But there are risks when it comes to the house-leaving crises — unpredictable timing. There was no chance to have a stable income of points.
In other words, the way he earned points was ironically, a little too dull.
Just as there was a slight turn of events, another building collapsed. What kind of matter was this?
The two ongoing cycles made Bruce feel suffocated.
He had to undergo some changes.
But not until he reached level 4. As for now..
Spending time with Aurora was the best!
As he saw that the favorability points on Aurora’s head had reach 97, Bruce hugged her from behind.
“Hey! What are you doing!” Aurora said in a playful voice.
“Mhmm!”
..
Just past 12 a.m., Bruce pushed Aurora — who was sleeping soundly beside him — away.
“Ding! Calculating time outdoors.”
“No record of the host leaving the house. Time reset. Leveled up to Level 4. Free time increased to four hours.”
“System reward: Phantom Steps.”
“Phantom Steps: Greatly increases host’s speed. Every step is as fast as a hundred steps for an ordinary person. No one can catch up to your speed. Ability to dodge handguns, machine guns, and other weapons.”
It was a simple skill, yet Bruce was satisfied.
This skill completely made up for his lack of speed.
This provided another sense of security for his life.

His attributes had been fully upgraded, greatly exceeding his original attributes.
At this rate, he would be adding on to his attributes, every 15 hours.
And now he could totally change his address.
This should be implemented as soon as possible.
As Bruce had the money, he must choose a house that was larger and studier than the one he had now.
A housing area on the first floor with enough facilities for entertainment. It would be better if there was a pool.
Although this type of housing was relatively remote, it did not affect Bruce as he stayed at home. No matter where that house is located at, the outside world would not bring any temptation.
In other words, as long as the interior facilities were adequate, Bruce could live happily ever after.
Then, the night passed.
Aurora was gone and Bruce was the only one left in the house.
It was at that moment —
“Bruce! Bruce! Bruce! Bruce!”
“Come out, Bruce!”
A series of noise was coming from downstairs and they were all shouting Bruce’s name.
