Chapter 158: Lunch talk (2/2)

”If I register for the 18th rank right now, I will be a core disciple too.” That was all he could think of.

”No, I can't. That will only make the other core disciple's target me. And after some time, I will have to fight against someone that would withstand Heaven's Impact. I can't handle them right now.”

He soon reached home and logged out for some afternoon lunch. This would be his last afternoon lunch in the dormitory. Just as he was about to leave, he saw his phone blinking. He opened it up to see that he had missed a call from his cousin.

He immediately called back.

”Oh, Alex. You finally picked up. Were you in the game?” Hannah was on the other side of the phone.

”Yes, sister. Did you need anything?” he asked.

”Yeah. I just called to tell you that you should pack your luggage today so that you won't have to worry about early tomorrow. You did tell your parents you were moving, right?” she asked.

”Oh yes, of course. Everything is ready. I just need to pack my luggage, which isn't a lot.”

”Alright. I will send you the location tomorrow morning. Grab a cab and get there, okay?” she said.

”Ok, sister.”

Alex went to have lunch with the rest of his roommates.

”You are leaving tomorrow, Alex?” Logan asked.

”Yes,” Alex replied with a hint of melancholy in his voice.

”Where will you be living?” Matt asked.

”With my cousin, a few distances away from here. Her friends all left, so she was alone and asked me to move in with her.”

”What about university?” Eric asked.

”Oh, it's not that far away I hear. It should take me at most half an hour to get to the university,” Alex said.

”That's not bad.”

”What about you guys? You guys decided to stay or leave?” Alex asked. The dorm had still not made any sort of announcement as to what they would do regarding the new capsules coming out.

”We will wait until next week and see what the dorm says. Even finding a room in the city is hard and not to mention it costs a lot. I am surprised that your cousin and her friends can afford so much. Aren't you guys supposed to be from the countryside?” Eric asked.

”Oh, haha, Yes I am from the countryside, but my cousin is not. In fact, she is quite rich. Her parents pay for her apartment rent,” Alex said.

”Ah, I see.” They talked for a while and Alex went back to the game once more.
