I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 79: Surprising comrade

A few more days passed after this and I just waited to be contacted like they said.

Then one day, I suddenly received a call asking me to come down to Elementia headquarters. They said that they would even be sending someone to pick me up.

When the time came, there was a limo that was waiting outside of my apartment.

Since I lived in a crappy apartment, this kind of limo really stuck out like a sore thumb.

While it was parked outside my apartment, everyone came to take a look at it.

With how many people had gathered, it was almost like a festival. There were even some street vendors that had come over to take advantage of this crowd, so it could almost be considered a festival.

When I came down, the person driving the car came out and walked over to me. That person suddenly gave a bow and said, "Master Lin, I have come to pick you up."

As soon as he did this, everyone's eyes suddenly looked at me.

There were many different gazes that were directed at me. Some of them were filled with envy, some of them were filled with confusion, and there were even some that seemed like they were targeting me.

After all, I was someone that could get this kind of luxurious limo to pick them up, so they misunderstood that I was someone very important.

Before I could say anything, Mrs Li, who was one of my neighbours came over and asked, "Xiao Lin, what kind of trouble did you get yourself in?"

Mrs Li was one of the friendlier neighbours in our apartment complex, though she did have a habit of gossiping. So her coming over to ask this was half out of care for me and half because she wanted to get gossip right from the source.

But before I could answer, the driver suddenly said, "This missus, I think there's been some kind of misconception. Master Lin isn't in any kind of danger, but rather I'm here to pick up the newest recruit to our guild, Elementia."

The moment that the word 'Elementia' was said, everyone couldn't help revealing shocked looks.

After all, this was one of the top guilds in the world that even had a S Ranker personally watching over it. There wasn't a single person in this crowd that didn't recognize this name.

As soon as 'Elementia' was said, the looks that were directed my way completely changed. Now these looks were filled with admiration and curiosity…but there were still those looks of passion.

In fact, the eyes of the girls that wanted to hook someone rich became even more passionate and I almost felt like I was prey targeted by them…

When Mrs Li heard this, she couldn't help revealing a blush.

After all, this driver was a handsome and clean middle aged man, the kind that was hard for a housewife like her to resist.

After taking a moment to calm herself, Mrs Li turned to me and said, "Xiao Lin, you really are something. You can even join a big guild like Elementia. I'll bring some dumplings over to celebrate."

Then without giving me a chance to say anything, Mrs Li quickly headed off.

But from time to time, she kept peeking back at the handsome middle aged driver.

Once she was gone, the handsome middle aged driver opened the door and said, "Master Lin, shall we?"

With a sigh, I entered the limo.

In this situation, the sooner I got out of this place, the better.

After all, it would just become worse and worse if more people gathered and people would definitely gather with the crowd that had already been drawn in.

With a bow to the crowd, the handsome middle aged driver got in and drove off.

Once we were alone in the car, I said, "That was a sly move."

The driver looked at me in the mirror and just revealed a smile without saying a thing before turning his eyes back on the road.

I just gave a sigh and enjoyed the feeling of riding in a limo.

I had to admit that there really was a special allure to this limo that normal people like me couldn't resist.

It was the feeling of having made something of myself that made this ride so enjoyable.

After a short ride, we were able to reach Elementia headquarters.

As for why it was such a short ride, we were able to use the special Awakener roads to get there sooner. These were roads that had been specially laid aside for Awakeners so that they could get to where they needed to go quickly.

This was a measure that had been taken at first for emergencies only so that Awakeners could quickly reach the disaster zone to handle these emergencies, but afterwards, they had been turned into a privilege for high ranking Awakeners.

The powerful guilds all had special passes that allowed them to take these roads and this limo was one of the high grade vehicles of the high ranking Elementia guild, so naturally it had a pass to take this road.

After arriving, the handsome middle aged man bowed to me and said, "I hope that I  will be able to be your chauffeur again one day."

Him saying this was naturally his high expectation for me.

I just simply gave a nod and walked in without saying anything.

When I arrived in the lobby, I found that Bing Lan and Bing Xin were there waiting for me.

There was a crowd gathered around them, but it seemed that no one dared to move closer to talk to them.

But what I was more surprised by was the person that was with them.

It was Su Chen, the leader of Bing Xin's personal porter team.

It seemed that he had been able to survive that ordeal as well.

Bing Lan waved at me as soon as she saw me and I walked over with a bitter smile on my face as I became the center of attention once again.

Seeing that Bing Lan was waving to get my attention, the crowd around us naturally switched their attention to me. They looked at me with looks of doubt and disdain, but I just ignored them as I walked over.

After coming over, Bing Lan said, "You're finally here, I didn't think that it would take that long for you to get here."

I just revealed a bitter smile before saying. "Well, your driver decided to play a trick on me which was why it took so long."

Bing Lan just revealed a smile without saying anything, but that alone was enough to know that she was the one who had instructed the handsome middle aged man to do that.

While I didn't know what her motives were, I had some guesses.

It was most likely related to keeping me safe by making sure that everyone knew that I was part of Elementia.

After this exchange, Bing Lan looked at Su Chen and said, "I'm sure that you two are acquainted."

I nodded before saying, "Team Leader Su, I'm really glad that you survived."

Su Chen said with a smile, "I'm glad I survived too…but I never expected a performance like that out of you."

The two of us just caught up for a bit before Bing Lan interrupted by saying, "From now on, Su Chen will be working with you as your handler and porter."

"Huh?" I said with a surprised look on my face.
