I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World

"Considering that things have even reached this point, you have must have actively sought them out to resolve the conflict—which is why I have yet to see any further attacks from the powerful families. In this regard, you have done an excellent job."

"It is what I should do, Boss." Roderick Patrick said humbly with a bow after being praised by Albion. 

"Nevertheless, do they not know who I am?" Albion shortly frowned again before asking, "Who gave them the audacity to try and take advantage of me? Was it the Earth Federation Leader whom you negotiated with?"

"No, Boss. It was actually Senator Rosglov, who is overseeing all matters in the Glacia continent," Roderick Patrick answered before adding, "Senator Rosglove… He should be aware of your identity, Boss."

"Senator Rosglov, huh?" Albion muttered with a frown before he said, "I consider myself a pretty reasonable person, but since this person tried to take advantage of me, he will have his reckoning."

Roderick Patrick silently smiled wryly as he thought, 'If you are reasonable, then everyone in the world is also reasonable.'

"Nevertheless, for him to have this courage despite learning of my identity, he is either extremely foolish or has a powerful backer," Albion pondered for a moment before he shrugged, "Well, I'll find out soon enough." 

"What are you planning to do, Boss?" Roderick Patrick asked with shock. 

"Nothing much," Albion stated nonchalantly before adding, "I'm just going to find that person for a little chat after some matters are settled." 

Roderick Patrick's lips twitched. 

Knowing the history of the Dark Emperor, Roderick Patrick highly doubted that the boss would go out of his way to find Senator Rosglov just for a 'little' chat.

Roderick Patrick shortly briefed Albion on few minor matters before he parted with the mayor and returned to the wolf-girls.

"Fenriri, we're going now," Albion stated before saying to Fenrira, "Please continue to take care of matters here with Roderick, Fenrira."

"Master…" Fenrira quickly clung to Albion's arm, causing him to be slightly surprised, before she requested ambiguously, "Please give it to me… I want it…"

"What do you want?" Albion responded with astonishment. 

"Pills…. I want more pills…!" Fenrira eventually spoke her intention.

Albion's expression quickly turned glum before he raised his hand and gave her a smack on the back of the head, "Say everything at once! Don't you know your words were very ambiguous?"

"Oh…" Fenrira uttered as she hugged her head.

"Hmph, you already ingested a Grade-3 Resplendent Snow Pill and advanced to Peak-stage Aura Lord," Albion snorted before adding, "If you don't want it to harm your future progress, then stabilize your cultivation first."

"As for pills to help you advance to Aura King, I haven't refined any yet. You will be rewarded eventually as long as you continue to work hard for me." 

"Understood, Boss," Fenrira said with droopy ears.

Albion gave her a pat on the head calmly before he said, "Just continue to manage this place and have the wolf-people adapt to life here for now. Once we have more capable personnel, I'll have someone take over the job for you."

"If you do an excellent job until then, I don't mind refining a pill to help you reach the Aura King Realm sooner once I have all the required spirits herbs on hand."

"Understood, Boss," Fenrira nodded. 

Eventually, Albion took the spaceship and departed with Fenriri after teaching Fenrira how to use a mobile phone and leaving behind his contact details.

Draco County, Silvercove City

After returning to the city, Albion left the spaceship in its usual spot near the Hunter Association Building before heading for a particular location in the central district with Fenriri. 

At that moment, a lover's quarrel on the street quickly caught their attention as they glanced over to check it out.

A powerful woman could be seen chasing out a feminine man before she caught his hand and cried, "Honey, don't go! I love you—"

"F*ck off! Say that to the other six men you kept at home! I thought I was the only one for you, but think that I was only one of many!" the man flung the woman's hand away before storming off angrily.

"No, don't go! You're the one I love most! Come back, please! I know your family's situation isn't very good! I have money and power! I can give you anything!" the woman shouted while continuing to chase after the man. 

Albion cringed as if it scene right out of 20th century TV show.

At the same time, Fenriri quickly furrowed her brows after noticing a man walking casually on the other side of the street with two ladies in his arms. 

Their relationship appeared harmonious.

"Master, polygamy is common practice in our tribe, but it doesn't seem like it is widely accepted here—at least when it comes to women. Why does it seem like it is okay for men with power to have many lovers but not for women here?" Fenriri asked with doubt.

"That is an excellent question. I'm glad that you asked," Albion chuckled before stroking his imaginary beard with a wise and profound look in his eyes.

"Let's put it this way; a key that can open any lock is called a master key, but a lock that can be opened by any key is called a useless lock." 

Fenriri was filled with frowns before she said, "I don't get it, Master."

"Well, it's also good that you don't get it," Albion smiled wryly.

Fenriri was still too young and innocent to understand the special meaning hidden within his joke, which, of course, was not a bad thing.

"This world used to be a male-dominant society. Things have only started to shift in women's favor in the 21st century. Despite that, many men still carry the values of the old ways."

"That is why men look up to other men with multiple women but look down on other women with multiple men."

"So that's why…" Fenriri's eyes flickered with a look of understanding after Albion's explanation. 

Nevertheless, the little episode was shortly forgotten as they continued on their way, heading to the location of the anime convention to meet up with Anya Seymour.
