In the morning, Alex rtained himself in the bathroom with his lavish life.
He was pretty relaxed as he came out looking like a dashing young master surrounded by maids.
" Everyone, stand in line. I have something to tell you, " Alex said calmly.
Girls quickly scrambled in front of Alex.
They were like bunch of Rowdy kids trying to get first seat in front of Alex.
" Don't make noise, " Alex ordered and everyone quitened down.
They stood wherever they were, while glaring at each other.
Alex sighed. Women were complicated.
Jealousy was very normal in such conditions.
But, he didn't care.
" I'll teach you all some fighting techniques. Pay attention. Anyone who does good, will get rewarded, " Alex said.
Everyone's eyes twinkled in expectations after hearing about rewards.
But, those new women felt downcast, as they knew that Madison and others were very strong already.
They couldn't compete with them, while being just Level 0.
" What I'm going to teach you, doesn't require your level. You just need talent, " Alex said, making all women look on with expectations.
Alex asked Ivanna to come forth.
She was the one who he expected to be very talented.
She could naturally use Resonance and multiply her original Strength by a lot!
But, when Alex now asked her to repeat it. She was unable.
" Alex... I'm sorry... Sob.. Sob.. Why can't I do it again? " Ivanna cried, as she felt that she had disappointed Alex.
" It's okay. I'll teach you something easier, " Alex next taught her a simple yet very best Martial Arts technique he knew.
It was very effective and wasn't supposed to be that difficult.
He then taught the same technique to all 34 of his women here.
" Work hard guys. In this World, strength is everything. Now that you have joined me, you're my responsibility while I'm yours. Don't slack off from today on, " Alex said gently.
And for half an hour watched these women practice the technique.
He solved the doubts of many women around and helped them by hand.
But, he noticed that he was more of a distraction than help in latter phases.
So he decided to leave.
" Julie, Perrie and Jovie, we will go looking for your families. So, be ready when I ask for you, " Alex said.
"" Yess! ""
Girls nodded happily while others looked on in jealousy. They also wanted to accompany Alex.
" As for others, practice well in my absence. Robin, Mana and Ivanna, I'll leave them to you. Make sure they level up enough while I'm away, " Alex said.
Girls nodded.
Alex knew that even if Ivanna and Robin were young, they were 100% loyal and strong. So, while he is away there should not be much problems.
He needed to cultivate a proper leadership, but that will take time.
Alex left the Penthouse with Madison and Mana by his side.
" Alex, uncle Mackman is waiting for you in cafe at ground floor. He wanted to ask you something, " Mana informed, while they were in elevator.
" When were you going to tell me? " Alex asked.
He wanted to talk with all authorities here properly before leaving. But, it seemed they were much more worried about talking to him than he was.
" I didn't want our private time to be wasted. So, I didn't tell you... Not like those people matter that much anyway, " Mana said.
" Yeah. Those weakling don't matter, " Alex replied.
* * * *
In the cafe, 4 people were sitting around a dining table.
They were having some tea, while waiting for Alex to come visit them.
" Mr Mackman, haven't you contacted him already? Why is he not here yet? " A man who was sitting on opposite side of Mackman, asked with dissatisfaction.
Mackman was also there, as he also looked troubled, " I already told Mana... Let's wait for five more minutes, he might be busy. "
" Busy? Buys with what? Fucking those girls? " The last man asked as he slammed his hands on the table arrogantly.
He was the strongest here next to Mackman.
" Which man will be able to leave his bed, with beauties like those by his side. I heard many of women in our camp went to his Penthouse last night, " The first man said with some jealousy.
" That bastard! I even saw my friend's wife going in. That bitch changed cocks just a day after her husband died. What a slut! " The arrogant man snorted again.
" Can you all shut up. You're annoying, " A melodic yet firm voice interrupted the discussion of the two men.
" What did you say? " The arrogant man asked with a glare as he looked at the beautiful women gracefully holding the cup of tea, with her eyes closed.
Her skin was blemishless and smooth white. Her long blonde hair were elegantly swaying behind her, making her look exquisite and attractive.
She opened her eyes slowly and looked at the man in front of her with even more arrogance than he had.
The arrogant man felt as if he was being drawn into this beautiful women's eyes.
He actually knew this women, she was the owner of a popular modelling company in Hiesta City. While at the same time, she was the best model of her company.
She was Anna Becketh.
At a very young age, she had done many films and won many awards. Later after her father passed away, she inherited the biggest Modelling company in Hiesta City.
But, that wasn't all. She actually expanded that modelling company even further, popularizing herself not just as an absolute beauty but also the beauty with brains!
The arrogant man felt insignificant in front of those eyes, as if he was just a random ant in front of this stunningly charming women.
" I said keep your mouth shut. Do I have to repeat myself, for you to understand it? " Anna asked.
The arrogant man gritted his teeth, he didn't want to admit defeat in front of a women, that also in front of a beautiful women like Anna.
But, other man stopped him, " Are you an idiot? Don't antagonize her. She is ruthless and has support of all women in the camp. You won't even know when you died at night if you insult her. "
The arrogant man swallowed back his words.
Anna really wasn't an easy women.
Till yesterday, she stayed at the camp acting like inconspicuous. With her face covered in dirt and mud.
She was only famous for slitting the throat of a man after cutting off his dick, who tried to force himself upon her.
After that all men kept their distance from her, even Horan didn't ask for her.
After Alex took over the camp, she changed completely.
Somehow, now she was sitting in front of them as the female Spokesperson of all females in the camp.
This showed her intelligence and cunning.
She had few loyal friends as well, who obeyed her for everything.
This included another women who was standing behind her, wearing black clothes and mask.
The ones who knew the reason, knew that behind that mask was a hideous looking women with completely burnt face.
Even though she had seductive looking figure, her face was a total turn off.
But, still she was very popular in the camp.
Even Alex had seen her yesterday, while she was slaughtering zombies alongside other survivors.
Her name was Kate Becketh.
Other people didn't know, but she was actually the step-sister of Anna from an illegitimate women of her father.
During childhood, because of some unfortunate accident Kate's whole body was burnt harshly.
Anna might despise her sister inwardly, but outwardly she kept close attitude with her sister.
When apocalypse came, Kate risked her life to save Anna, just because Anna was good to her.
Later she followed Anna like a loyal follower.
Since childhood, she had trained in Martial arts that's why she was also very strong.
Right now she was at Level 11!
Well, Kate was one of the reason why Anna could seat here in this meeting room alongside strongest of the camp.
Actually Anna herself also wasn't the weak women, she showed she was.
She herself was Level 6, because of some secret help of Kate.
After Anna spoke silence pervaded in the meeting room.
There were no more talks about Alex now.
Mackman, and two men just chatted about the situation around the camp, while Anna stayed silent.
After some time, an elderly women came to the meeting toom, while carrying some breakfast.
" Is Alex not here yet? I made something special for him, " The elderly women said with soft voice.
" He might just be coming down, thank you for the breakfast," Mackman said, there was affection and closeness in his voice.
Mary Mackman was his wife, who he dearly loved.
Mary nodded as she served breakfast to everyone.
Anna smiled at this women, " Thank you aunt Mary. "
Mary smilingly nodded, she had a very good impression of Anna, who was speaking up for all women in the Camp.
Just as they were about to start breakfast, the door of the meeting room was pushed open.
Alex walked in, followed by Mana and Madison.
The three men in the room subconsciously looked at Madison first, after all she was like a most dazzling star in the darkness.
Even a top child-actress and model like Anna paled in comparison to Madison, she was just that beautiful.
She also had a charm that couldn't be explained. Perhaps it was because of her strength, which surpassed anyone present here.
Mackman was the first to look away, as he coughed awkwardly.
The other two men snapped out of it, as Mackman greeted, " Hope you had a good sleep here Alex. Good morning to you too Mana. "
Alex first looked at everyone present in the meeting room.
Seeing everyone was just weakling, he relaxed, " Of course I had good sleep. "
Seeing the empty seat on Anna's side, he sat there directly.
" I never knew this place had such a beauty. What's your name? " Alex unabashedly asked, as he held Anna's hand in his.
Anna's face turned awkward.
She felt that Alex was too unreserved.
Kate noticed her sister's uncomfort, but before she could say anything Madison held her hand.
Kate was turned silent by the terrifying force exerted on her hand.
In few moments, her face turned red. But, she couldn't do anything.
" Argh... " A low moan of pain escaped from Kate's mouth, even though she tried to suppress it.
Madison let go only then while glaring at Kate, as if to say, ' Know your place like a watchdog you are. '
" Kate, are you okay? " Anna asked worriedly.
" I-I am... " Kate said in a hoarse voice. Actually it was her normal voice.
But, still Anna could detect nervousness in it.
" Everything will be okay. Why don't you tell me about yourself? " Alex pulled his sit closer to Anna's as he said so.
Now he and anna were almost glued to each other. Alex even touched Anna's soft waist with his hands as he looked at her.
Anna didn't dare to move away, as she understood the implication of Alex's words.
' Everything will be un-okay. If you don't obey me, ' that's what Alex was saying.
The two men looked on in jealousy as the hot cat Anna, quietened down obediently in Alex's arms.
Anna gritted her teeth and said, " I'm Anna Becketh. And I represent all women in the camp. "
" Ah? Okay, " Alex dismissively said as if he loosing interest, as he looked at Mackman.
" I'll be going out today with some of my girls. Uncle Mackman you will be leader here while I'm away. If you want to contact me, talk with Mana here. You can take their help to clear the zombies in the area, but let them to whatever they want, " Alex said.
Mackman nodded.
He didn't dream about becoming the leader here. He knew his limits.
But, still he was gratified by the trust Alex had put in him.
" I'll make sure of their safety while you're away, " Mackman said seriously.
" Haha. You don't need to. They're my women, they know how to care for each other. Just make sure to not annoy them or anything, " Alex repeated again, to make Mackman understand that he was just a proxy leader.
Mackman understood this very well.
Alex saw that these people were about to have breakfast.
He already had breakfast, so he won't take their more time.
But, just as he was to leave, Anna held his hand.
" Wait! " She said.
" What is it Anna, Do you need something from me? " Alex asked as he caressed Anna's face, as if she was a cat.
Anna now blushed slightly, Alex was very attractive already.
But, as he gently caressed her face from so close. She felt weirdly comfortable from that touch.
" Actually, many women from the camp are gratified because of you saving them, as their representative I want to thank you... "
" Stop this nonsense, tell me what the fuck you need? " Alex acted irritated as he took back his hand.
" Ah... A fan club was created in your name and I have been chosen as it's President. So, I hoped that you would legalize it, " Anna looked at Alex's face again.
Another reason why she could become the Spokesperson of all women was the Alex himself.
She had used him as an idol, to persuade all the women in the camp to follow her.
With her previous good deeds, added with Alex's popularity because of his looks made her with little difficulty get the position of the Spokesperson.
Mackman and other men in the room were surprised, while Mary just smiled as if she knew this all along.
Alex thought for a moment.
He had already started recruiting women in his group.
Now, at this time he met another competitor who was trying to use his popularity for her own benefit.
But, Alex didn't mind it much.
Because, he knew that many women didn't join his group because they didn't want to betray their families.
Alex's group equalled to his harem, this was the common knowledge. So, he understood their hesitation.
But, if Anna now came forth with this Fan Club thing, she could rally these women under her barrier.
If he legalized this Fan Club, by chain reaction these women will feel like they were under Alex's protection.
What people in the apocalypse needed most was Strength and Resources!
But, women needed a valid protection. Because they posed threat not just of dead but also living.
Anna really was a brilliant women.
She had perfectly grasped the opportunity to score big here.
But, that depended on Alex's aggrement.
Anna looked at Alex with calm face, but inwardly she was nervous.
Previously she was confident about winning Alex's favor with her charm and conversation skills.
But, Alex didn't give her any chance to speak at all and all along he had initiative in their contact.
So, she was now flustered.
She hoped Alex would agree...
" No. Disband this Fan Club right away. I'm not interested, " Alex stood up as he let go of Anna's hand.
Anna panicked as she saw Alex leaving.
Her hard work for the whole day will be wasted, while she might never get this chance again if Alex didn't agree now.
" S-Sir Alex... " She held Alex's hand, while almost falling down.
She tried to stabilize but Alex pulled her slightly towards him making her stumble to her knees.
She was now very flustered, as she looked up at Alex with awkward expression.
But, Alex just calmly looked at her down.
" Are you deaf? You better have a good reason to stop me, " Alex said coldly.
" I-I... Can you give me a chance. I'll always stay on your side, alongside the half of the base's populace, " Anna said again, trying to sell her idea.
" Are you joking Anna? Why will i need someone to take my side. I have strength with me. I can do whatever I want. Or do you still think that it is the World which it used to be where numbers held power? Just look at the internet, that's the reality. Whole world is plunged in chaos. No one will care what happens here. So tell me why will I need your help? " Alex asked.
Anna didn't know what to say.
She knew Alex was right. Kate might be worth something, but all other women were worth more burden than profit, including herself.
She wanted to say that under Alex's protection they might flourish.
But why will Alex help them?
She didn't know how to persuade Alex more.
But, at this time, Alex said, " Well... I can give you a chance to prove your worth. But, I can't just help anyone randomly... It would have been different matter if you were one of my own. "
Anna thought about Alex's words. As expected it had come to this.
She gritted her teeth.
She didn't have any romantic feelings for Alex, but she can't loose this chance.
If she created a solid position for herself here, she might get a higher and more stable position later on when this Camp will be integrated by Royal Family Or Government.
" Okay... I agree to become your women, now can you give me the chance? " Anna asked helplessly.
Alex smiled, " I think you're overestimating yourself Anna. I never said I wanted you or anything. I am actually more interested in Miss Kate here than you. "
Anna and Kate were both suddenly taken aback by Alex's words.
Especially Kate, she was more flustered, wondering what Alex exactly meant by being interested.
Even though she looked very serious and terrifying, Kate was actually a women with very low self-esteem.
Just because Anna sometimes showed her good will she now was following her like an obedient dog.
This alone can make one understand what kind of person Kate was.
She knew that in Alex's eyes she must be completely worthless.
Strength? There were plenty of girls around him, lot stronger than her.
Beauty? There was no need to talk about it, as she was ugliest women she had ever seen herself
So, she was more than just shocked.
But, under everyone's shocked gaze, Alex approached Kate.
She was pretty tall for a women. At least 180 cm.
He held her rough hand caressing it gently, feeling burn marks on both sides.
" Miss Kate, I really like you. Can you be my women? " He directly asked.
Kate now really couldn't believe Alex.
" W-Why... " As soon as she asked in her hoarse voice, she felt like crying.
Why will someone like her, even her voice was ugly.
She must have misheard Alex.
Kate even looked back to see it someone was standing behind her.
But, Alex's eyes peering at her eyes made her understand that she was the one he wanted.
" Miss Kate, I don't care about material things. What matters is heart... And your heart is the cleanest I have ever seen. Such a pure minded and innocent person. Those who don't like you are just blind. So, I'll accept every part of yourself, " Alex lied honestly as he touched Kate's chest.
Feeling her pounding heart, he felt like if he pressed her for answer she might just faint right here.
So, he pulled away from her.
At the same time, Kate wasn't very touched by Alex's words.
From young age, she had dreamt about a boy saying these lines to her.
But, she knew that it could only be the dream.
She hadn't seen Alex in such a light before.
But, now as he held her hand. She felt a very comfortable emotion from her heart.
" I... I.. " But, still she was unable to make a sentence.
But, Alex just smiled at her gently, " Since Miss Kate didn't object, she is my women from now on. As for you, Anna. You're now my sister-in-law, so you can be considered one of my own. You're allowed to carry on whatever you want. "
After saying what he wanted to Alex patted Anna who was still kneeling on ground, with 'what the fuck' written all over her face.
She felt like her world was breaking.
Has beauty standards changed after World went down the drain????
As she now looked at Kate, she felt a strong sense of jealousy which she had never felt before.
But, Alex didn't care for the Anna's thoughts as he directly left the room.
Left behind were stunned Anna, who was questioning the World view and Kate who was still in daze as she felt the lingering warmth of Alex on her hand.
Alex had perfectly considered her psychological state.
She longed for human relationships, she longed for warmth and love.
That was why even after being so strong, she stood behind her sister like that. Her low self-esteem made her like that.
So, with just few words he created a new relationship for Kate who dearly longed for it.
So, from now on even if Kate didn't accept it, she will subconsciously consider herself as Alex's women.
Alex had no special intentions about these two women, he just wanted to play with them and that's what he did...
