Chapter 18 - Chapter 17: System Store.

"Well, whatever. Let's go inside. I'm going to sleep on the second floor since I'm tired. The food is in the refrigerator. You can warm it up and eat. I'm going to sleep now. Oh, and you're not allowed to go to the second floor. You'll be staying on the first floor," Yuhi stated before walking away, leaving Alex standing there, still trying to process everything.

Alex stood dumbfounded for a moment, his eyes scanning the grandeur of his new surroundings. He couldn't help but wonder what awaited him in this seemingly unreal new chapter of his life.

Taking a deep breath, Alex approached the majestic door and stepped into the mansion. The interior greeted him with an air of elegance and opulence, leaving him momentarily awestruck.

His gaze was immediately drawn to a magnificent staircase, gracefully curving upwards, teasing him with the allure of unexplored heights. Though tempted to ascend, Alex recalled Yuhi's instruction to remain on the first floor. Resigned but eager, he redirected his attention to the lavish details that surrounded him.

The walls of the hallway boasted an impressive collection of fine art, each piece a testament to the refined taste of the mansion's owner. Masterpieces adorned the space, their vibrant strokes and intricate details whispering tales of passion and creativity. Alex marveled at the display, unable to shake off the lingering thought of Yuhi's claim of a simple life.

"Wow! So many exquisite paintings. Moreover, each of them exudes an exceptional level of sophistication. How can I believe that Sis is not rich?" Alex pondered, a tinge of bitterness in his voice.

Continuing his exploration, Alex entered a spacious living area that exuded comfort and refinement. Luxurious sofas, inviting and plush, beckoned guests to sink into their soft embrace. A massive flat-screen television, its screen spanning an entire wall, promised hours of entertainment and escape from the mundane. The room was adorned with tastefully arranged decor, a fusion of contemporary and classic aesthetics, creating an ambiance that resonated with sophistication.

"Ughhh... I could sit here all day and enjoy this luxurious space, but alas, it's not meant for me," Alex sighed with a hint of longing.

Passing through a set of double doors, Alex discovered a culinary paradise—the expansive kitchen. Gleaming stainless steel appliances stood in perfect harmony with custom-made wooden cabinets. A large island, adorned with gleaming granite countertops, provided ample space for culinary creations. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the tantalizing scents of spices and delicacies, evoking a sense of gastronomic delight.

Adjacent to the kitchen, a lavish bathroom awaited—an oasis of serenity and indulgence. White marble enveloped the room, from the countertops to the intricately designed bathtub and the spacious walk-in shower. Soft ambient lighting cascaded from elegant fixtures, casting a warm glow that enhanced the room's tranquility. Every detail, from the plush towels to the fragrant soaps, spoke of a commitment to luxury and comfort.

As Alex ventured deeper into the mansion, he stumbled upon the master bedroom—a sanctuary of dreams. The vast room boasted a king-sized bed, its canopy adorned with flowing drapes that whispered of elegance and intimacy. The intricately carved wooden furniture added a touch of timeless charm, while large windows invited in the gentle caress of moonlight. It was a space that promised rest and rejuvenation, a haven from the outside world.

Just beyond the master bedroom, a hidden gem revealed itself —an indoor swimming pool, a marvel that surpassed Alex's wildest expectations. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels allowed natural light to flood the space, highlighting the sparkling azure waters that stretched invitingly before him. Lush potted plants and comfortable lounge chairs dotted the poolside, creating a serene oasis of relaxation and recreation.

"I can't believe it! How am I supposed to believe this house is a small one? It isn't even a house; it's a magnificent mansion. I have to thank Sis for letting me stay with her. Just wait, Sis. I will soon earn enough money to buy a mansion even grander than this," Alex declared, determination burning in his eyes.

Lost in thought, he suddenly remembered his objective. "So, how should I start? Perhaps I should check the system store first."

Alex called for the system status panel, eager to see what options were available to him.

"The system store has everything, ranging from daily necessities to electronics and even vehicles. There are helicopters and tanks too, although they cost more than 10,000 points," Alex marveled, his eyes widening in amazement.
