“Seriously, what am I thinking about all this for?”

Lorne was puzzled. On the surface, he was still as nonchalant as ever. The two beautiful spirit envoys in front of him could not help but think even more highly of him.

“Thank you for your help. We’ll check if there are any other dangers in the surroundings later. If there are, we’ll take care of it ourselves.”

Lorne nodded. Then, he turned around and left without saying a word.

“This youth is really something!”

“If I was younger by a dozen years, I’d definitely let him court me!”

When Lorne rode his motorcycle and left, the two beautiful spirit envoys could not help but sigh.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one. Even if it was a high and mighty spirit envoy, unless it was an existence that truly stood at the top of the pyramid, they could borrow the power of the elves to return to their bodies.

Otherwise, the vast majority of spirit envoys were no different from ordinary people in terms of lifespan.

The female spirit envoys were thirty-something years old, considered to be middle-aged. At this time, it would be a little awkward to have any ideas of hitting on a teenager.

At the same time…

“Did you hear? That rookie king Lorne has already completed a grade-B mission!”

“No way? Didn’t they say that his elf just advanced to level-2 yesterday? He’s already able to complete a grade-B mission so quickly.”

“Why else would they say that he’s a genius? A genius is someone who breaks the rules and does such an incredible feat in the eyes of us.”

“Uh… Now that you mention it, how are the other people who are called geniuses going to live?”

“Tsk, it’s none of my business how they live!”

The news that Lorne had completed a grade-B clearance mission gradually spread in the group chat formed by the spirit envoys.

In a group chat called [ Class 99 Spirit Envoys ], most of the rookies who graduated this year had gathered to discuss this matter.

“Lorne is really amazing! He can already complete a grade-B mission on his own, unlike us, who don’t even dare to accept a grade-D mission.”

“It’s no use to compare but if it’s Lorne… I’m convinced!”

“The person above, you make it sound like you’re not convinced, so what can you do? But Lorne has really brought glory to this batch of rookies. Every time I see those veteran’s sour faces, I feel great!”

“Work hard on your own. Don’t always be envious of other people’s achievements.”

“It’s easy to say, but in reality, it’s not possible to succeed just by working hard!”

“Isn’t there someone from Class Six of No. 1 high school in our group? Why don’t we pull Lorne into the group too?”

“He’s a big shot. He probably won’t enter a new group like ours, right?”

“That’s hard to say. Maybe Lorne is approachable? How do you know it’s impossible if you don’t give it a try?”

“@cai xukun, haven’t you been bragging about your good relationship with Lorne? Go and invite big shot to join the group!”

“…”

At this moment, Cai Xukun saw the message in the group and felt a little flustered.

‘Don’t f*ck with me! You said that I was bragging, so why did you ask me to invite big shot to join the group? Are you deliberately making things difficult for me, Cai Xukun?!’

Looking at the discussions in the group, Cai Xukun found that many people were encouraging him to invite Lorne. This made him very uncomfortable.

“F*ck, a bunch of people who aren’t afraid of big things!” He cursed. While holding his phone, he hesitated whether to send a message to Lorne.

In another group chat, the students of Class Six had all joined a class group. Lorne was also in this group, so Cai Xukun could contact Lorne.

However…

“He’s not on the same level as us now. Will he reply me?”

Cai Xukun was a little uncertain.

If it were him, his strength and the people around him were not on the same level, so he would not pay too much attention to them. After all, the circle he was in contact with was different.

However, Cai Xukun, who had already been set up, had no other choice. He could only bite the bullet and treat it as a last resort. He contacted Lorne in the class group.

In the wilderness, Lorne came out of an orchard. He had just finished off a level-2 demon. He gained another 50 experience points.

Including the 300 experience points that the Level-4 demon had given him previously, his remaining experience points had reached another 350 points.

“I can upgrade Nita’s skills by another level.”

Lorne was about to upgrade Nita’s level-1 skills by another level. At this moment, his phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Lorne took out his phone and looked at the screen in confusion. It was a message from a group chat. He opened it and took a look.

“Cai Xukun?”

Lorne recalled and remembered who this person was. Was not it just the fat guy in their class?

‘Why is this guy looking for me?’ Lorne thought to himself.

He replied a message on one side. On the other side, just a dozen seconds of waiting had already made Cai Xukun a little anxious.

He stared at the screen of his phone. In his heart, he hoped that Lorne would reply, but he was also afraid that Lorne would completely ignore him. Would not he be even more embarrassed then? Just as he was in a dilemma, a new message appeared in the class group.

[ Lorne: What’s Up? ]

Cai Xukun’s heart that was hanging in the air instantly dropped when he saw this message.

“Great, Big Brother has replied me!”

He was so excited that he looked even more excited than when he received his first love’s reply a few years ago. His fat body almost jumped up on the spot.

[ Brother Lorne, it’s like this. They have set up a group chat so that everyone can exchange ideas or some information. Brother Lorne is so amazing. Everyone hopes that you can join the group and give us guidance. ]

Seeing the message above, Lorne thought for a moment and replied.

[ Sure, count me in. ]

Adding a group was nothing to Lorne.

Cai Xukun jumped on the spot excitedly. Then, he quickly switched to the chat interface. After entering Lorne’s ID in the search bar, he sent him an invitation to join the group. Soon, Lorne accepted his invitation.

[ Class of 99 Spirit Envoys ]

[ New member, Lorne, has joined the group chat! ]

The group chat, which was originally bustling with chatter, instantly quieted down when this notification popped up. Immediately after, the group exploded.

“Lorne is here~”

“The big boss has really been invited.”

“Welcome, Brother Lorne!”

“…”

Lorne instantly became lively once he entered the group. Looking at the members in the group, he realized that he did not recognize the vast majority of the hundreds of members above.

He had almost forgotten Cai Xukun, who was in his class. It would be a miracle if he could recognize these people!

After sending an emoji, Lorne did not pay attention to the fans in the group. After turning off the phone screen, he summoned Nita from the magic lamp.

“After this upgrade, your strength should be comparable to a real level-3 demon!” Lorne looked at the obedient Nita in front of him and said with a smile.

The next second, 300 experience points disappeared. Then, an even stronger aura burst out from Nita’s body.

Even Lorne, who was her master, had to step back a little to feel less pressured.
