Novel Full Chapter 278: [Master of Disguise]
Chapter 278: [Master of Disguise]
While Alex was on the plane to Iraq, he felt that he needed to come up with some form of disguise. After all, the last thing he needed was to get discovered by the US Government or its true rulers while he was attempting to do something that could be considered high treason.
Because of this, Alex looked into the in-game store to see if he could find anything useful. Which he was surprised to see that there was indeed something among its many items that could aid him in his efforts.
Listed under the “Skills” section was a variety of things that Alex could normally win from the prize wheel. One of them was called [Master of Disguise]
and upon further inspection, Alex found that it was indeed exactly what he was looking for.
[Skill: Master of Disguise: You have the ability to effortlessly blend in with the local population of any country or community you may enter. Effects: Flawlessly pose as a separate identity, and thus avoid detection from unwanted eyes.]
Alex looked at the price of the skill and found it was a whopping 1,000 points. Which he just barely had enough for after conquering the heroines of the Mexican arc, while still spending quite a few points on the full restore which saved his life.
It took a few moments of debate before Alex finally decided to bite the proverbial bullet, and purchase the item. Where he then activated the skill. Which gave him a list of options of ethnicities, nationalities, and passports to choose from.
Alex searched through the options until he found one that suited his aims, which was of course that of a local Iraqi, and after selecting the option with the UI that his system gave him, he found that he was magically transformed into an Arab man of Iraqi Nationality.
Not only did his clothing change to meet the standards of the area, but his face, skin, hair, and eye color had all changed as well. And then in a flash of red light, a passport appeared which contained an Alias.Once Alex looked at the passport, he saw his current face in a picture with the name
“Omar Assad” printed next to it. Consdiering Alex already had the [Universal Translator] ability, he could now flawlessly pass as a local Iraqi, at least on the surface. If he were to actually converse with the locals, it would become immediately apparent how little he knew of their culture and society.
But what he really needed was to evade detection from the prying eyes of the US Government and its intelligence agencies long enough to infiltrate the country, find the Iran backed Militias, and get them to smuggle him across the border.
Thus, Alex was quite excited as he waited for the flight to complete itself. That was, of course until he received a notification from the system which alerted him to something he was not aware of.
[Entering New Location: Middle East]
[Generating Heroines Complete]
[Starting New Story Arc]
Alex was surprised by this, but not until he heard a familiar voice lecture him seemingly out of nowhere.
“Tsk… Tsk… Tsk… You have really done it this time Alex… Why couldn’t you just wait for these things to naturally happen?”
Alex looked around and found the Queen of Hearts staring at him with a rather unusual look on her face. It was almost as if she did not in the slightest approve of his current appearance. Which was something that Alex had never experienced before.
He was just about to ask what the hell was going on, when the Queen of Hearts sighed heavily, before getting up in his face and prodding his chest with her finger.
“You idiot! You weren’t supposed to leave Mexico until after you conquered all the heroines! By not conquering La Madre before moving on, you now have two open story arcs! This means that as of right now, you will have to compete with two different main characters at the same time!
Or you would have to, if you didn’t already terminate Angel… I suppose this makes you really lucky, because now that the Heroines have been generated, the Main Character is capable of pursuing them. If you had not killed Angel in advance, then you would essentially have to split your focus into two different regions. Which, let’s face it, you’re not exactly a master multitasker…
But I suppose there’s no harm in letting La Madre wait for your return…. It’s not like she has her eyes on anyone else at the moment. And with your Mexican rival buried six feet under, there’s no chance of another main character swooping in to steal her from under your arms.
Be more aware of such things in the future, okay?”
Before Alex even had a chance to respond to the woman, she disappeared, but not before leaving behind a disdainful comment about his appearance.
“By the way, hurry up and finish what you need to. I can’t stand the look of you in that disguise!”
Alex was shocked by this. By all means, he looked like an exceptionally attractive Arab man at the moment, but judging by the tattoos that the Queen of Hearts was covered in, that just wasn’t what she was interested in.
Thus, he could only sigh and shake his head, before gathering his belongings, as he attempted to safely make it through Iraqi customs without sending off any alerts to those who wanted to do him harm.
Alex would find himself waiting in line at the customs section of the airport for quite some time. Luckily for him, the cameras could not distinguish him from any other Arab. And thus, all he could do was wait patiently as he tried to get into a country that in his past life he had grown up thinking was the enemy.
Eventually, after what seemed like hours, Alex finally made his way through the Baghdad airport, and found himself standing in the hot, blazing sun wondering how the hell he would make contact with the Iran Backed Militias who he needed to smuggle him into Iran.
