Seeing the man walk away with his 'Alm points,' Apollo smiled bitterly. This is annoying. Oh right, I didn't give him a fork! The beggar began to worry that the man would come back asking for utensils. Fortunately, the man seemed to have the ability to produce items out of thin air, relieving Apollo from having to spend another Alm point—though he would definitely refuse if that guy came back.
This situation gave Apollo a better understanding of his role in this life. A true beggar. He could only earn Alm Points by literally just begging. He couldn't exchange them for something else; the coins he received would be invalid. The one and only requirement was for people to give him Alms willingly, not because they wanted something from him. Any trickery wouldn't work.
"But System," Apollo recalled the time when a martial student fell unconscious beside his feet, his coins rolling out of his pocket. "How come that guy's money turned into Alm Points?"
