The loud, shrill ring of his phone tore through the quiet morning air.
Ren groaned, half-buried beneath his blanket, his hand fumbling across the bedside table until his fingers brushed against his phone. Without opening his eyes, he pressed the answer button.
"Ren! You in the game right now?"
Leonel's familiar energetic voice hit his ears like an alarm clock.
Ren cracked one eye open and squinted at the red digits on his digital clock. 7:03 A.M.
He sighed. What was supposed to be a short nap after last night's call with Saya had turned into a full twelve-hour hibernation.
Apparently, mental exhaustion hit harder than any dungeon raid.
Especially when that exhaustion came from dealing with women.
He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and answered in a groggy tone. "No. Why?"
"Did you talk to Saya? Did you agree to join Black Lion?"
