Fu Yangzhu tch'ed. "I just want some. It's for Boss Ren. How can you be so stingy to the Boss?"
Mizuki Rei did not like being accused especially when he really did not have any of the resins since the two he got from Lilian Mo was fed to Mu Qingqing.
Annoyed, he said, "I really don't have any. I swear on my pride as a man. It's Momo who has them. If you want some, we need to look for her."
Fu Yangzhu deflated. "Bah! How are we going to find one person among this chaotic city? Who knows if she's still alive."
"Don't insult her. She's at Level three. That scary girl is capable of turning you into mush."
Both Fu Yangzhu and Mu Qianmo were shocked to hear this. After working hard for almost two months and figuring everything about their abilities, they've only just made a breakthrough and was at the bottleneck of Level one.
It was only a matter of time before they hit Level two but unexpectedly, someone else was already at Level three! This was such a huge slap to their faces when they initially thought they have been working hard!
"Level three?"
They froze upon hearing the Boss' words.
Excited at hearing the Boss speaking, Mizuki Rei spoke. "Boss Ren, it's true. That scary girl is at Level three right now. She said it herself and I've seen her strength myself." Mizuki Rei was proud as he said this.
Of course, this was still his teammate afterall so he was allowed to brag a little. Still, he felt a little defeated afterwards. Both his fiancé and Lilian Mo were a level or two higher than him which dealt a huge blow to his ego.
"It's a girl. Brother Qian, it's a girl! A girl is stronger than us!" Fu Yangzhu leaned on the sofa as if he had lost some strength. He had wanted to brag to Mizuki Rei that he was about to reach Level two soon but after hearing that a girl had managed to reach Level three before they could even reach level two, he was quickly ashamed of himself.
"No way... I've been working hard. I was not slacking up. This means? It was not enough? Or it must be because of talent that that girl was at Level three now!" Fu Yangzhu mumbled to himself as he stared at the ceiling in a dazed state.
"Little Rei, what's that girl's ability?" Mu Qianmo asked patiently. He was also a bit shaken by this information but unlike Fu Yangzhu, Mu Qianmo was mature about it. There were other opportunities to grow and because the world is big, there were bound to be a bigger fish in the sea.
Mizuki Rei trusted these close friends of his that were like brothers to him so he was not scared of revealing information to them. "She's a fire and space ability user."
"Space ability?" Mu Qianmo did not know what that meant so he looked at Mizuki Rei for an answer who quickly explained what it was.
"Amazing..." Mu Qianmo felt like it was really convenient to have a space ability user on a team. It meant that they wouldn't have to carry any supplies or luggage. It'd be faster to travel that way and they won't have to worry about being robbed by someone.
"Tch. What is this? That girl is so lucky. Fire is strong and she also has a space ability. It's not a surprise that she's at Level three." Fu Yangzhu commented. He, of course, was slightly jealous but not in a bad way. This just made him more motivated to improve and to beat that girl, whoever she is.
Besides, even Qingqing who was a delicate girl was already at Level two! As males and older brothers, they couldn't lose out.
He pulled open a water bottle and started to drink.
"Oh yeah, what's the name of that girl? You kept calling her Momo and you seem to know a lot about her." Mu Qianmo pointed out since he knows that Mizuki Rei wouldn't associate with just any random girls unless they weren't interested on him.
"Ah, right. Her name is Lilian Mo."
