Roonie smiled at Veyne. "Man, your family is really... intense."
Veyne just smiled at him. "I bet it was nothing compared to your family."
Roonie rolled his eyes. "Dude. Sure, there was more violence there, but nothing could beat this family drama. You’re calling out your aunt, ahh, that must have burned deep."
Veyne rembered Aunt Corini’s red face and started laughing. "Haha, she really turned into a red tomato."
Roonie nodded along. "Haha, true. By the way, Veyne, excellent shot."
Veyne tilted his head.
Roonie mimicked his action by waving a beer bottle toward him and then made a sound with his mouth.
"Puff. That was pure chef’s kiss, man."
Veyne just tapped his bottle with Roonie’s. "Well, good to see you enjoyed the show."
To be true, from the mont they walked out of the eting, even he felt a lightness, like sothing heavy had just lifted off his chest.
He just relaxed in his seat, enjoying the mont.
Now he understood why people chase after revenge. They must get this sa addictive sense of satisfaction.
Roonie pulled him out of his thoughts as he said in a disappointed tone, "Too bad, man, you ended things with your family. Now I don’t get to enjoy this drama anymore."
Veyne shook his head. "Wow, you really are soone who enjoys others’ misery."
"Hey, don’t act like so saint now. I know you invited while knowing things were going to get ssy."
Veyne didn’t deny it.
When he learned about the party, he knew there was a small chance Cathrine might show up.
Well, with all said and done, it was for the better that she chose to co directly. Now, at least, he’d have one less spam caller.
Though a new doubt rose in his mind.
Given how familiar Kron was with everything about his old guild situation. And how both of them slightly twisted the narrative; it looked like he had also been wrong about the starting date of their relationship.
It didn’t matter now. He had no feelings attached to her. Though he was interested in seeing how his actions would change the future.
As for the family eting, he smiled at Roonie. "Ah, don’t worry. The next family eting will be at my big uncle’s house. He’s the kind of guy who wants the family to stick together, so I’ll definitely be invited."
Roonie smiled at him. "Oh, so more drama is still to co."
Veyne shook his head. "No need to get excited over sothing so distant. Before that, there are so other dramas we need to handle."
Roonie stopped smiling at this and clicked his tongue. "Yeah. By the way, you were talking about your house requirents?"
Veyne looked at Roonie and then nodded. "Yup, the dorm is good for casual playing, but in the long term, it’ll just hamper my progress. I need my place to train and play the ga."
Roonie waved his hand. "Wait, let call the perfect person for this."
Trr trrr trrr trrr
After a couple of rings, the person on the other side picked up.
Roonie put the phone on speaker as the other person said in a sweet tone, [How co you rember , you party freak?]
Roonie replied in a flat tone. "Fiona, I want you to look for a property for ."
[Click! Figures you’d only call when you need sothing. What do you want this ti?]
Roonie just said plainly, "I need a property for soone in the guild."
[Guild? What happened to that big house you built for your guild? Did you already fill that?]
Veyne raised an eyebrow at Roonie.
Roonie sighed and said to him, "I just tried to copy those guild house concepts from big guilds. It’s not that big—just a place for the top 10 Kiyon mbers to live. Only five people live there now, but I don’t think you want to live with all that disturbance, right?"
Veyne nodded. "Yeah."
At this, Fiona asked, [Oh, is the person you’re looking for the house for present next to you]
Roonie nodded. "Yup."
He turned to Veyne and introduced her. "Veyne, Fiona is my childhood friend. She’s the eldest daughter of the biggest property distributor in this area. When it cos to finding a house, she’s one of the best."
Fiona started laughing. [Hehe, Roonie, you shaless guy. I won’t fall for the sa trick. By the way, who’s this lucky dude you’re calling for?]
Veyne introduced himself with a smile. "Hello, Miss Fiona. I’m Veyne, Roonie’s younger ga brother."
[What!!! When did Cobra have a fourth child?]
Veyne looked at Roonie and saw him smacking his head but not saying anything.
He corrected her himself. "Miss, big bro, and I are ga brothers."
[Ga brothers? Ew, Roonie, you freak. Don’t tell you’re into young boys now.]
Roonie said with irritation, "Veyne, don’t ss with her. And Fiona, why don’t I co to your house and show you where my interests really lie?"
[Wah, how can you say such stuff in front of others? By the way, when are you coming? I’ll get ready for you.]
Veyne looked at the phone, then at Roonie. This irritated Roonie as he said, "Hey, that’s enough. Just tell , will you help or not?"
[Tch, this attitude of yours... Sigh. Forget it. Hey, you—ga brother—what was your na again?]
Veyne noticed the shift in her tone. It had gotten sharper. He also stopped ssing around and said, "Veyne."
[Okay, Veyne. Do you have anything in mind?]
Veyne nodded. "Yeah, nothing too fancy. I think a two-floor house should be enough, with a single bedroom set, a living space, and a big kitchen on one floor."
[That’s basic! What about the second floor?]
Veyne thought for a mont. "Half of the second floor needs to be one big gym with so equipnt. The other half should be empty, maybe with so mat padding on the floor."
[So a gym and an empty room, right? Anything else?]
"Yeah. If possible, I want a swimming pool. Its position doesn’t matter, but it needs to be at least 10 feet deep."
[10 feet? Are you crazy? Don’t you know 6 feet is the limit for house use?]
"Ah, if that’s not possible, then can you look for a house that’s close to so deep comrcial pools?"
[When did I say it wasn’t possible? It’ll just take more ti. Give an hour and I’ll send you so locations. By the way, do you also need household workers?]
Roonie said to her, "You don’t have to worry about those things."
[Oh, don’t tell you’re going to use those guys?]
"Just send the location."
Click!
With that, Roonie disconnected the call.
