Chapter 1856 In Bad Terms

"Geh, they are not going to talk to me at all," Lian said to herself but Rong overheard her.

"It's your own fault. If you had not gone to Italy with Senior Jin, they would not be this pissed off as well." Rong stated. They were all staying in the same apartment rented by Qiu Yue but apparently, after the incident that caused Lian to be picked instead of the other two, Su Zhen had decided to move into Lein's room to sleep while kicking Rong out of the room.

"I know that she's mad at me, but isn't she mad to sleep with another guy?" Lian asked Rong who had been abandoned by Lein even though he did not do anything wrong.

"Oh, you do not have to worry about that, we had separate bathrooms and another wall that separates us," Rong said and Lian was confused.

"Wait, what?"

"You don't know? Lein found me irritating because I usually snored quite loudly. So, he had requested Qiu Yue to remodel the room a little so that there is a wall that separated us. She even gave me my own bathroom since Lein could not stand by erm…bathroom habits."

"You are definitely not going to sleep in this room for your information." Lian could not imagine the kind of bathroom habits that Rong had.

"Wait. Wait! Are you thinking something dirty? It's just that I have lots of hair to shave that's all! And I wash the toilet properly! Go ahead and compare my toilet and his! My tiles are sparking clean!"

"TOO MUCH INFORMATION!" Lian exclaimed.

"Not as if you girls do not have anything to shave!" Rong tried to counter but he did it so badly that Lian used her one tail to slap him. "Ouch. Fine! I sleep in the living room. Geez."

"And the toilet… you can use as long as you clean it properly." Lian begrudgingly allowed him since there was no toilet outside the two rooms.

"Hehe, thanks, lady boss. By the way, why are you showing your tail out? I thought you always hated it and only used it for 'ultimate attacks'? Didn't you say this cultivation is irritating to use? Not to mention, it spoils your image a little?" Rong decided to look at the ghostly tail that was floating beside her and tried to touch it.

"Oh wow, its kinda fluf- GEK! Why did you slap me if your tail again?" Rong questioned.

"Did I say you can touch my tail without my permission?" Lian was angsty and a little flustered since Rong had no idea that touching her tail was a sensitive issue.

"Ow. All I am trying to say it looks kind of fluffy and nice to touch, that's all! You don't have to hit me so hard with it." Rong rubbed his head and suddenly Su Zhen came out from his old room and shouted at them to keep quiet.

"Lein and I are cultivating, can you guys keep it down?!" And she slammed the door again.

"Wow, I did not expect such a spoiled image of her just because she was not selected," Rong commented softly.

"She just wants to be the very best since her mom is at the top of the food chain in JODE. Not like us, we are like eh, middle class people." Lian started whispering as well.

"Middle class? You and Lein are of nearly the same class-OW Okay! Change of topic. So, what are you going to do tonight? Get the report out as requested by Grandma Yuan after you told her what happened?" Rong asked and Lian gave a disgusted face.

"You think I am that kind of hardworking person? Fuck that. Besides, I promised Senior Jin to participate in his new dungeon instance tonight. He said it was along the lines of a solo dungeon experience."

"Are you sure that you are not getting cheated of your money lol."

"Rong, have you forgotten that employees have benefits? We can do 30 dungeon instances a month."

"Oh? Oh…" Rong suddenly started to nod his head as if he realised something.

"Wait, so have you been training in dungeons that you are paying for them?"

"No, no. I was wondering why was it so good that I get to have free dungeons every first few days of the month, and I had to pay them afterward."

"You mean you had been training by yourself that you subsequently got to pay because you went over the limit?" Lian asked and Rong nodded his head earnestly.

"The dungeons here are undoubtedly hard. Especially Escape City. I kept going there to beat Fish men but in the end, the one who got beaten was me."

"You did it at your own time off work?"

"Well, yeah. Not many people wanted to take me because I am just another 'average' Demon Exorcist. Most would want you, to sense and find stuff, or Su Zhen who had shit loads of knowledge in her brain, and perhaps Lein since he got flashy skills and techniques. I am just an Ox Demon user, another muscle in the team in case shit goes down the fan." Rong said in such a sad and depressing way that Lian did not know how to react.

"It is not that bad, you are with us."

"I am with you guys because Grandma Yuan wanted us to work as a team and we had been employed by the System. Lein and Su Zhen know my skills so they understand what I am good at and what I am not. Usually, I am the main person to go in to attract the attention of the monsters and you guys finish them off."

"You see, you got acknowledged that we need a tanker like you."

"But there are many other musclemen out there, I am no different. Therefore, I am always training myself to make sure that I remain useful to the group, else in no time, I'm out." Rong said and Lian had no idea how to comfort him.

"Alright, so how about we don't give a shit about those people in the opposite room and do the new dungeon? This time, I will pay for your instance as a thank you for always protecting us." Lian said as she encouraged him to come out.
