I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 173: Back to work



A few more days after my experimentation with Sasha, I was called back to the guild.

They had let me rest for over a week before calling me back.

The first thing that happened was that I was called to the guild headquarters instead of being called to lead my usual dungeon delving group.

It seemed that Bing Lan wanted to talk to me.

Su Chen was the one that picked me up and we headed to the guild early in the morning.

When we arrived, it was completely different from before.

This time, people actually recognized me and pointed when they saw me.

When I looked at Su Chen, he revealed a smile before taking out his phone to show me something.

It was Elementia's internal message boards.

On the trending page was a picture of me and the title read, "New C Rank Irregular".

They didn't beat around the bush at all and just wrote the main story in the title.

But that made it even more eye-catching.

Su Chen then said, "So how does it feel to be famous like this?"

I just revealed a bitter smile before saying, "It's a bit like being an animal at the zoo."

Su Chen chuckled when he heard this before saying, "Well, you'll get used to it."

I shook my head, but I didn't say anything.

As we walked through the main hall to the elevator, there were plenty of people that pointed at us while whispering to each other.

But that wasn't strange since this was Elementia's headquarters.

The people here were members of Elementia and they had access to these internal message boards. This was a topic that was trending on the main page, so of course they would have all read it.

At least it got much more quiet when we reached the elevator.

But as we stood there in the elevator, I remembered that we needed a special key card to reach Bing Lan's office in the first place.

So for now, we were just awkwardly standing there.

I was about to say something when Su Chen suddenly pulled out something. He walked over to the buttons of the elevator and tapped something on the panel there.

When I looked closely, I saw that it was a key card.

It turned out that he had been silent not because it was awkward, but because he had been looking for this thing all along.

As soon as the key card was tapped on the panel, the elevator suddenly started to move.

It didn't take long for us to reach the office and we saw Bing Lan sitting there waiting for us at the desk.

To the side was Hua Rong who looked at me with a complicated look when she saw me.

It seemed that she still didn't like me…

That was going to be a problem in the future if this continued because of what I was planning on doing.

If Hua Rong were to get in the way of that…I might need to think of a way to deal with her.

But before that happened, I wouldn't do anything to her right now.

After she saw us come in, Bing Lan looked at me with a smile and said, "There's the man of the hour."

I couldn't help revealing an awkward smile when I heard this before saying, "It's not that big of a deal."

Bing Lan looked at me for a bit before giving a nod and saying, "Alright, I won't tease you today since you've accomplished something big."

I gave an appreciative nod before walking up in front of her desk.

She gestured to the seat in front of her and I sat down.

After sitting down, she said, "Now that you've passed the Irregular License Exam, you can officially become a member of our guild."

I gave a nod in response to this.

Bing Lan waved her hand at Hua Rong who came over with some documents for me.

After Hua Rong put these documents in front of me, Bing Lan said, "These are the contracts that you'll need to sign to make everything official. Take your time to read it if you want."

Then she just fell silent, as if she was waiting for me to read them.

I just simply picked them up and cruised over them a bit without caring too much about these documents.

I could see that these documents were just formalities and I trusted Bing Lan enough to know that she wouldn't do anything that would burn the bridge after crossing it.

So after simply looking it over, I put my signature on it.

When she saw me sign these contracts, Bing Lan gave a satisfied nod before turning to give a nod to Hua Rong.

Hua Rong took those contracts from me and left the room, most likely heading off to process these contracts.

Once Hua Rong was gone, Bing Lan said, "Now that everything's been settled, you can go back to work."

I was about to stand up after hearing this, but then Bing Lan said, "Or rather that is what I would like to say, but there's something else that I have to discuss with you first."

I couldn't help freezing while standing up.

I slowly turned to look back at Bing Lan, but it didn't seem like she was joking with the expression that she had on her face.

So I slowly sat back down.

Su Chen was about to sit back down as well, but Bing Lan shook her head at him.

Su Chen was visibly surprised by this, but after a moment of hesitation, he still stood up and headed out.

As he walked off, he said, "I'll wait for you outside."

I gave a nod of acknowledgement to this before turning back to look at Bing Lan.

She didn't say anything until Su Chen was out of the room and had closed the door behind him.

She looked right at me and said, "You have a new addition to your team and it's someone that you already know."
