Anomaly

"Good morning, Alfred." Romeo greeted the moment Alfred walked into the room. However, rather than responding to his greetings, Alfred rushed towards Romeo with an overly concerned expression on his face.

After scrutinising Romeo's body carefully, Alfred breaths out a sigh of relief. "I thought you might never wake up due to the severity of your injuries." Alfred said but his concerned expression soon reconfigured into one of shock.

"How come you healed so fast?" Alfred asks Romeo whose face showed puzzlement.

"What do you mean, Alfred? Aren't you happy that I am okay?" Romeo asks with furrowed brows.

"Of course I am. It just that I am quite surprised at the way you tend to heal." Alfred says while examining Romeo over again. "I mean, according to the Carnal attribute you possess, it is almost impossible to heal. At least, the fact that you recovered this fast is quite astonishing."

Alfred explains which caused Romeo to pursed his lips having realise the situation. Romeo was well versed in the ways of the Carnal Shifters. As someone who possesses a Dragon Carnal Gene, it is unlikely for him to be able to regenerate part of his body that are injured unlike those with the Lycan Carnal Gene.

Dragon Carnal Shifters are creatures that are known to be invincible. It takes a massive amount of firepower and manpower to be able to deal great damage to a Dragon Shifter owing to the toughness of their scales and when they are severely injured, it is almost impossible for them to heal unless they go through a phase known as the Revitalisation Process.

Due to the fact that Romeo just activated his Carnal Gene just two days ago and is considered a newborn in the world of Carnal Shifters, it is likely for his powers and abilities to be weak when compared to the powerhouses that already exists in the world of Carnal Shifters and are top notch.

For this reason, it is already an astonishing fact, as well as a fascinating sight, for Romeo to be able to recover from the severity of the injuries he suffered at the hands of the armoured elite, and at a fast pace to.

Therefore to Alfred who doesn't know about the multiple Carnal Genes Romeo possesses, the sight of Romeo healing from wounds on his own is already an anomaly.

"Can we not venture into that discussion. Besides, I am just seeing you this morning and that is the first thing you tend to ask me." Romeo said feigning annoyance as he glare at Alfred who is suddenly at loss for how to reply.

"I am sorry." Eventually, those were the only words Alfred could blurt out. "I was just shocked. That's all." Alfred stated.

"Here, I got you this." Alfred says while placing a pile of neatly stacked clothes on the bed Romeo is sitting upon. "I got them from the mall next to the hotel. I figured you would need them since the clothes you are putting on were worn out and dirty."

Romeo's eyes gleamed as he stares at the stack of clothes before him. Never had he dreamt of wearing such luxurious clothing and by the way they look, Romeo reckoned that they must have cost at least a fortune.

"Thank you, Alfred. By the way, where did you get the money you used to buy them. I thought you didn't have the currency they used in Land Climax." Romeo said, the sentence coming out more like a question than a statement as he started checking out the clothes.

"It's true that I do not have the currency but that doesn't necessarily imply that we can't get them." Alfred stated while sitting next to Romeo in the bed. "Turns out that in Land Climax, Beast Cores are as valuable as millions of diamonds." Alfred says and one could notice the obvious glow his eyes held as he spoke.

"The previous night, right after we checked into the hotel and you went to bed, I was referred to a trading hub where I managed to convert five Beast Cores into five million diamonds." Alfred explains and Romeo almost exclaimed at the amount of diamonds mentioned.

"That high amount of diamonds for five Beast Cores?!"

"Yes." Alfred affirms while bobbing his head with a broad smile on his lips. "Turns out that the locals value Beast Cores more than millions of diamonds." Alfred said with a grin.

"So what you are trying to say is that in Land Climax, the currency they use are diamonds. Like diamonds?" Romeo asks with a raised brow earning a nod of affirmation from Alfred.

"Woah!" Romeo exclaims. If this is truly how the elites live then Romeo felt like he will definitely have no problem fitting in. Who doesn't want to live a good life anyways? Besides, he has spent the odd eighteen years of his life preparing for this stage of his life so why not embrace the opportunity when it presented itself.

"I know right. It is really amazing. From having to spend golden coins in the slums to spending diamonds and Beast Cores in Land Climax, what more could we possibly wish for." Alfred says excitedly.

"Right, what else could we wish for? Anyways, I hope you haven't forgotten about the real reason we are in Land Climax?" Romeo questions, instantly dampening the excited mood of Alfred who hissed in displeasure.

"Of course I haven't forgotten. But I have a more better idea. How about you freshen up then we have a relaxing breakfast before we tour the land, uhm?" Alfred suggested while wiggling his brows.

Although Romeo was in a rush to improve his Carnal Gene, or Carnal Genes, as soon as possible, he felt that Alfred's suggestion isn't all that bad. Besides, they just got here so it is probably the wisest idea to explore the land so that he would familiarise himself with the way of life of the people living in it lest he screws himself.

"So what do you say, uh?" Alfred asks once more causing another sigh to escape Romeo's mouth.

"I say we explore. But first thing is first, like you said, I must freshen up before we begin our adventure." Romeo said while getting up from the bed.

Proceeding to the en suite that was attach to the bedroom, Romeo felt his jaw dropped at the magnificence it entails. Do all rich people get live like this? Romeo questions himself as he swept the entire bathroom with his gaze.

The bathroom was a serene retreat, where cutting edge technology and luxurious amenities harmonized to create a truly immersive experience. The floor-to-ceiling windows allowed natural light to pour in while the smart glass technology ensures privacy with the gesture of a hand.

The intelligent bidet, equipped with advanced bidet functions and self cleaning technology was a marvel of innovation. The shower system, with its precision temperature control and soothing colour changing lights, was a symphony of relaxation.

The suite's AI powered assistant running through the bathroom, adjusted lighting, temperature and even scents to create a personalised ambience. The mirror's augmented reality display showed vital signs, weather updates and other related informations.

The advanced water management system harvested and recycled water, minimising waste and optimising efficiency. The bathroom's sustainable design and eco-friendly materials ensured a reduce carbon footprint.

As Romeo stepped into the bathroom, he felt transported to a futuristic spa, where technology and tranquility blended in perfect harmony granting the best bathroom experience he ever had.

Had it not been that he was in a rush, he would have loved to spend some more time in the bathroom. Romeo has to admit that everything about Land Climax seems too good to be true. From the lush and civilised outdoors, to the serene and vibrant indoors, it is as though he has stepped into another world. A world which can truly be described as paradise. A paradise he isn't leaving anytime soon.
