Chapter 637: A Night has Passed

Rhode had no idea how long he had been sleeping for. When he opened his eyes, the glaring morning sun pierced his eyes and forced a groan out of him. He pulled himself up and his head was spinning. The immense headache from the hangover left him incredibly pained. This was the first time he experienced a hangover. In the past, no matter if he was in the original world or here, he had never become completely drunk before. Last night was like a dream for him. He remembered that his brain was in a complete mess, but incredibly, his conscious was fully awake the whole time as though his conscious had totally disengaged from his body, floating in the air and observing his every action like he was playing a computer game that controlled himself. But…
Rhode held his throbbing forehead and sucked in a deep breath of air. When he finally stood on his feet, he realized that he was only wearing a white shirt while his black coat had been neatly folded by the bedhead. Not only that, but there was also a cup of plain water on the table. Rhode drank it and the chilly sensation permeated in his warm body, driving away the intoxication. He let out a shiver and slowly recovered from the headache.
At this moment, a question cropped up in his mind: who poured this cup of water?
Rhode puckered his brows. His memories were fuzzy after making his way out of the banquet hall and he recalled that he had gotten someone to help him. He couldn’t remember who it was, but he was sure that it was someone who he trusted… But… who was it?
He stood before the table with the cup in hand, pondering for a long while. When he decided to summon his spirits to interrogate them, someone knocked on his door and spoke.
“Sir Rhode, Chairman Lauren is here.”
“Got it.”
Rhode threw the question to the back of his head. He felt relieved that he didn’t vomit all around the place and saved himself the time from cleaning up. But even so, he swiftly cleaned himself and changed into a new set of clothing before heading out of the room.
Although the jurisdiction and duties of the three guilds had been decided the day before, it was only briefly mentioned during the banquet, after all. Chairman Lauren was looking to explain the details. Even though Rhode had given up a huge portion of the cake, it was still necessary to account for him. If not, it would be disrespectful toward Starlight if he had decided on Purple Lily Guild and Cole Falcon Guild’s jurisdiction behind Rhode’s back.
