Chapter 50: New Home and Neighbor



"Let me treat you to a meal at least, before you go?"

"We appreciate it, but there\'s no need to. Besides, we must make our way to the next contract we have. Thanks for the offer, though!"

"I see...well, I won\'t keep you then. Thank you once again and take care."

"You too, good sir!"

Cedric escorted the construction team out of the property and sent them away with his gaze. Once they were out of sight, Cedric sighed and made his way to his newly constructed home.

Looking at the interior of his new home, Cedric couldn\'t help but think how time flies when one\'s busy. It has been a month since he was released from the RMC. Now, he\'s a homeowner in the Black Thread City.

His house was large. Hell, one could say that it is way too large for a single person to use, even Cedric would admit that himself. However, he didn\'t mind. Sure he had to pay extra fees but he\'s a millionaire, and he could afford to splurge on his new home.

Cedric\'s new house has a wide living room with a cozy theme. He had an outdoor pool as well which could be accessed in many ways. His kitchen resembles those that can be seen in bars and clubs. Aside from the Master\'s Bedroom, three more empty rooms in the house could be used by guests should he ever have one.

It also comes with an indoor gym, recreation room, and large empty but reinforced court which he could use to train his skills safely - a must for every Superhuman Homeowners. He also asked the construction team to build him a lab for future use.

Aside from the rooms and everything else, there\'s a fairly advanced security system installed all over the house. Cedric was strong, yes, but it wouldn\'t hurt to have an extra layer of protection. He didn\'t want to be consistently on guard, especially within his home. The installment cost him extra, but he didn\'t mind that in the slightest.

He already bought all the necessary pieces of furniture and tools he needed for his home as well as decorations and miscellaneous things not to mention, the bills. All of which barely made a dent in his pockets, though.

And so long as the contents of his Hell Dive don\'t change (which is very unlikely to happen), then he truly wouldn\'t run out of Demon Souls to spend any time soon.

A sense of satisfaction welled up in his chest as he roamed around his new home. If someone were to tell him that this was his future several months ago, he probably wouldn\'t have believed it. Yet here he is.

\'...yeah, I should do that.\' Cedric mused to himself as he suddenly remembered something from his childhood.

He took out several lavender-scented candles. He put one in each room his new house had and lit them up, leaving them there to steep in the scent.

This was something that his late parents used to do whenever they moved to a new home. It\'s somewhat of a tradition.

Cedric\'s father had a demanding job from what he could remember, he never understood it so he didn\'t know much, but it required them to move to a different place from time to time, resulting in him, as well as his siblings, not having many friends. It reached the point where they got tired of introducing themselves to people since it became repetitive.

Still, they couldn\'t do anything about it. His father was adamant about not leaving them behind, and his mother shared the sentiment.

And whenever they arrive at their new/temporary home, his mother will always leave burning lavender-scented candles in each room until they completely melt.

Again, Cedric never understood why she did that, or why lavender specifically. He just knew that she did, and that\'s it. He never asked either since he didn\'t think it was too important for him to know.

Still, this was one of the core memories he knew about his parents, and it\'s something that he cherished. So, even though he had no idea why, he went ahead and did it anyway.

...besides, he grew to like the scent of lavender.

Right now, Cedric was chilling in the dining room, eating his dinner, whilst watching some random gaming channel. He had forgotten training for the rest of the day since he already had his physical exertion for the day.

On another note, Cedric didn\'t use the "Hell Dive Pardon Ticket" just yet. It wasn\'t because he had forgotten about it, it\'s more so that he didn\'t feel the need to use it just yet.

While the ticket might\'ve been nice, it wouldn\'t compensate him for the Demon Souls he could potentially acquire if he were to complete his Hell Dive. Cedric might be a millionaire but that doesn\'t necessarily mean that he\'s gonna turn down a chance to earn more.

Plus, he was confident in clearing his Hell Dive, so why would he use the ticket right away? Who knows when he\'ll receive another one? Why use this one now when he could use it when the need arises?

Ping!

"Hmm?" Cedric raised a brow as he received an alert.

Opening it, he found that it was an e-mail. He read the contents and dismissed it as soon as he was done, not finding it worth his time to write a reply.

It\'s one of those promotional e-mails. This one though, came from an Academy. They gave him an invitation to join their Academy, even going as far as adding a superfluous description of what they could offer to him should he join, and empty promises for when he graduates.

Cedric didn\'t bother with those. He treated it like he did for the rest before it. Which is by ignoring it after reading its contents once. He just considered it as a spam e-mail and nothing more.

Seriously? What\'s the point? He received these e-mails just because he applied for online lessons - all of which, he finished weeks ago. They wanted him to attend their physical school which Cedric found redundant.

Again, what\'s the point of that? Like the difference between the two would be that big. If anything, the only difference would be social interaction and other not-so-important details, besides that, the rest were the same. Cedric already finished the courses they offered so he didn\'t need to reconsider attending their physical school.

This isn\'t him thinking that he\'s above that. He just didn\'t find it necessary, that\'s all...

Aside from Academic Institutes, Cedric also received invites from independent organizations - ones that are focused on building teams of Superhumans to do all kinds of stuff.

Cedric had no idea how these people knew his e-mail, and he sincerely hoped that they could forget it so that he wouldn\'t be bothered by their pretentious words.

Simply put, Cedric had no desire to be a modern-day Olympic Athlete. He\'s way too busy with other things he finds more important than that.

Speaking of being busy...

Cedric still hasn\'t leveled up. He did make large leaps in his research into purifying Demon Souls though, but that\'s mostly thanks to the compiled knowledge of his predecessors.

Right now, he has concluded that he will need to build a tool that could aid him in this specific task. So far, he was still researching for necessary tools and honing his skills in Symbols because they would help immensely to achieve the result.

Once he got all the tools he needed, he only needed to experiment and adjust the formula before reaching the jackpot. After that, he should be able to level up, and eventually, increase his Class Tier.

Cedric didn\'t doubt that his Hell Dive would become a lot more difficult once he levels up and/or increases his tier. That\'s just the way it is.

Hell Dives were one way to keep pressuring Superhumans, forcing them to grow and not remain stagnant in this kind of world. The stronger the Superhuman was, the more difficult their Hell Dive would be. It would synchronize with their growth to keep them progressing. After all, nobody would like to be referred to as a \'Risk\'.

Once he\'s done with his dinner, Cedric soaked in a hot bath to relax his worked-up muscles. After that, he wrapped himself up in a towel and was heading towards his drawer to get a fresh set of clothes when all of a sudden, he heard his doorbell ringing.

Frowning to himself as he was not expecting any visitor, he went downstairs towards the door and opened it to reveal a woman holding a tray of something gawking at him.

"Hi?" He said in a confused tone.

"U-uhm..." the woman stuttered as she gazed at him.

He followed her line of sight and just remembered that yes, he was still very much naked under that towel.

Color drained from his face as he hurriedly said: "I\'ll get back to you in a moment..."

Cedric immediately closed the door, cursing at his stupidity, while taking out a fresh set of clothes from his inventory. He was close enough to his door that he heard the woman muttering...

"Ooh lala~"
