I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 290: First assignment with a new team (1)

Several days later, Su Chen came to pick me up.

Today we were heading to a break zone.

That was where our first mission with the first dungeon raid team would be.

Our team had been given several days off to recover after the raid dungeon incident.

At the same time, this was a break that had been given to us so we could avoid the media and avoid causing even more of a mess.

The incident of when I had been brought into the headquarters, all of the reporters that had taken pictures of me in cuffs, not a single one of those pictures made it into any form of media.

There wasn't even a single picture that made it onto the internet.

It seemed that there was someone who had made sure to cover this up.

It was most likely Bing Lan, but I felt like there was also someone else who also helped with this.

As it turned out, there was indeed someone else.

It was Long Shui Ling with the influence of the Long Family.

"Are you alright? As soon as I heard what happened, I immediately told daddy to help you take care of it all." Long Shui Ling said as soon as she saw me.

She came to find me before everyone else arrived, making sure that Su Chen was gone to talk to me alone.

I just looked at her with a grateful look and said, "Thank you. You did great."

Long Shui Ling revealed a blush and a happy smile before saying, "How about a reward then?"

I shook my head with a smile before raising my hand to pat her on the head.

Though I was slowly raising my control of her, giving her this kind of affection from time to time wasn't that bad. It would be a lie to say that it wasn't warming to have someone care about me like this.

But it turned out that was a mistake.

Bing Xin arrived third and when she saw me patting Long Shui Ling on the head, she couldn't help looking at me with a strange look.

I quickly pulled my hand away when I saw her.

Long Shui Ling looked up at me with a displeased look, but she also quickly recovered when she saw Bing Xin standing there.

With a smile on her face, she ran over to Bing Xin and said, "Big sister, I heard that you were joining our team. Welcome to our team!"

Bing Xin snapped out of her daze when she heard this and she walked forward to Long Shui Ling to say with a smile, "Un, I'm looking forward to working with you."

Then the two of them walked over with smiles on their faces, almost as if what had happened just now didn't happen at all.

When they came over, I looked at Bing Xin with an awkward look, but she cut me off by saying first, "What's wrong?"

I couldn't help being surprised when I heard this.

It was as if that strange look that she had now didn't exist at all with the way that she said this. With the way that she was acting, it was as if I was the strange one for acting this way.

I slowly shook my head before saying, "No, nothing's wrong…"

Still I couldn't help feeling strange when I said this.

After I said this, Bing Xin just said with a smile, "Then shall we go and meet everyone else?"

I slowly gave a nod before turning to head to where everyone else was gathering.

But after he turned around, there was another strange look that appeared in Bing Xin's eyes.

She didn't know what that feeling was just now, but when she saw him patting Long Shui Ling on the head, there was this strange feeling that filled her.

It should have been normal for them since they were companions that worked together, that was what she told herself.

But she really couldn't stop that feeling that filled her.

When we came over to where everyone was gathering, I found that everyone else had already arrived.

Su Chen had been about to head over to call me and Long Shui Ling, but we had already come over before he could.

It wasn't just our group that gathered here, but also the members of the first dungeon raid team.

This was the elite first dungeon raid team of Elementia, so everyone here was a powerful Awakener in their own right.

But when I arrived, I could feel the way that everyone looked at me.

It was as if…they were blaming me for something…

The members of my group and Kaito's group gathered around me when they saw me come over.

Kaito was especially excited as he said, "Boss, thanks for thinking of us!"

I shook my head with a faint smile when I saw this.

It seemed that not only him, but the rest of them had already taken me as their boss after what happened in the raid dungeon.

But I knew that this wasn't the only thing that he was thanking me for.

During this time, Bing Lan must have sent someone to inform him and his team about the tournament that would be held. So they must know by now that they had been chosen as one of the participants for this tournament.

That also wasn't all that they were thanking me for.

There was also the fact that they were now able to work with the first dungeon raid team, the elite team of the guild.

So they were of course very happy to be here.

While we were talking, there was someone that started walking towards us.

When I saw this person, I immediately stopped talking with them and focused on them.

The rest of our group was the same as they all turned to look at this person.

This person was the leader of the first dungeon raid team, the A Ranker, Rupert Campbell.
