I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 144: Night of ‘rest’ (1)



The bartender led us down a large hallway until we came out the back of this large building.

This was the arena that I had entered in, so it wasn't that surprising for me.

But for some people, it was very surprising.

Listening to what they said, I understood why they were surprised.

"Where is this?"

"Which city are we in?"

"Isn't this xxx?"

It seemed that they weren't from this city at all.

It was no wonder they all came from the different corridors.

The bartender quickly calmed everyone down by saying, "We have brought you to this city with Transport Gates. Your people have already been informed of this and you will be able to contact them once you reach the hotel that we've prepared."

Transport Gates.

As expected of the Awakener Association.

This was something that normal people wouldn't even have a chance to see and the Awakener Association was just using them to transport them between cities.

Transport Gates as their name suggested had the function to transport things between them.

It had only been five years since they had been discovered.

These were gates that had the ability to move things from one gate to the other gate linked to this first gate. It didn't matter how heavy these things were, as long as they could fit through the gate, they would be transported.

But these convenient tools weren't widely used because of how rare they were.

A single set of gates cost even more than a Dungeon Return Stone.

And it wasn't just by a small amount, it was by an astronomical amount.

Just the maintenance cost alone of these Transport Gates would already be more than what the Dungeon Return Stones cost.

So the Awakener Association really went all out with this exam.

After hearing this explanation, they all calmed down.

But at the same time, many of them had looks of awe on their faces when they heard what the Awakener Association had done.

It was clear that they were in awe of the power of the Awakener Association.

Seeing the faint smile that the bartender revealed as he led us, I understood what their goal was.

They wanted to give an impression of the power of the Awakener Association.

If they could leave a good impression on those that took the exam, they might be able to recruit them into the Awakener Association later.

These were those that had powers that allowed them to get this far, they definitely wouldn't be weak.

So that was their goal all along.

I just revealed a faint smile as I realized this.

Even I would have been tempted to join if it wasn't for the fact that I had already signed a contract with Elementia.

Since I was already spoken for, I couldn't just switch sides now.

But there was no doubting how much power the Awakener Association had.

It didn't take long for us to arrive at limos that took us to hotels.

When we arrived, it was already evening and getting dark.

So the first thing that happened was that we were brought to a large banquet.

This was a buffet style banquet, so we were all free to eat as we wished, but there was this tension that was in the air. After all, everyone here was still competitors and no one wanted to get close to a competitor.

Well, other than those who wanted to gather information on the others and went to different groups to chat with them.

Long Shui Ling was the other exception where she kept following me.

She came over with a plate of dishes that she had picked out for me with a smile on her face as she said, "Look at everything that I got."

However, this plate wasn't for me…

It was for herself.

It really was amazing how much food she was able to fit into that small body.

She ate three times what I ate and it looked like she still wanted more, but she felt awkward when she saw me staring at her.

Though her second stomach for dessert definitely wasn't filled.

Another thing to note was that the young man with the shield, Zhao Kui, had split up from the other two.

Whether it was because those two had seen him for what he really was or if he just sent them away, he was currently eating all by himself.

Even though he was eating, he kept staring at me the entire time with eyes filled with hostility.

Long Shui Ling revealed an unhappy look from time to time when she saw him staring this way, but she didn't do anything in the end since I didn't do anything.

When everyone had their fill, it was time to go to bed.

The room assignments were also dependent on rank.

The ones that ranked below 50th received double rooms where they had to bunk with someone else.

The ones that rank from 50th to 10th received normal private rooms.

Those that ranked from 4th to 10th received luxury rooms.

The third ranked person, Zhao Kui received a VIP suite for himself.

The second ranked person, Long Shui Ling received a penthouse that took up an entire floor.

And as for me, the top ranked person…

I received the entire top floor.

This hotel was a five star hotel in the center of the city, it was a hotel that was only used by the rich and powerful.

So even the normal rooms were very luxurious to begin with.

There was no need to talk about the top floor suite.

This was luxury beyond luxury.

When we headed to our rooms, the top ten all grouped in a single elevator since this was the VIP elevator that would take us there.

For me, I had to take this elevator to get to my suite.

In the end, it was only Long Shui Ling and I left in the elevator.

However, that elevator skipped her floor and directly went to my floor.
