Chapter 1383: Staying at a hotel? Free stay?
“Well, where do we go now?”
“Good question…”
Wu Yan and Ash stood in an empty field. They watched as students, faculty, and other workers scurried along the wrecked pathways of the academy.
Of the two of them, one took over the title of the strongest in the world after defeating Ursula. The other one is a faux Arch-dragonar but he can still fight in a replica Arc Armor. Both of them are existences that are on par with royalty. Yet, here they are, standing around like commoners.
They don’t even have a place they can sleep in. Even a beggar would pity them.
Of course, both of them can choose to stay in the old dorms. But, none of them wanted to live in the poorly-maintained refugee center.
Ash didn’t mind. However, he wanted to keep his options open.
Only students who are sophomores can stay in their own rooms. Foundation year freshmen are expected to share a room with two dormmates. After finally getting a room of his own, Eco came into his life before taking over his bed.
Ash got used to having an entire room to himself. Wanting him to stay in a dusty, dirty, and crowdy dorm is just asking too much.
He reckons that he should try his luck at sourcing an alternative home before surrendering.
Fortunately, he isn’t alone, Wu Yan is here to suffer with him. He would have registered at the refugee centers otherwise.
“Hmm, guess the school is out of the equation.”
Wu Yan rubbed his temples.
“Since we are royally railed in the curriculum’s fanny, why don’t you go home for a short vacation?”
“My house is very far away. The journey back home would be roughly equivalent to the time needed to fix up the school. Of course, if a certain supersonic Maestro can help, the story would be different.”
Ash admitted with a bitter look.
“So, home is out of the question for me. How about you? What are you going to do?”
“Meh, our school got destroyed but that doesn’t mean the city is off-limits to me.”
Wu Yan shrugged.
“I can just stay at a hotel.”

“A hotel?”
Ash’s eyes widened.
“We would need at least 3 months to repair the school. I don’t think you can sell enough Fafnirites to cover 2 months of living expenses, much less three months.”
Wu Yan pursed his lips. He took out a pouch and tossed it at Ash.
Ash caught it with a puzzled look. He opened it only to see something so shocking he almost threw it back.
He was blinded by golden flashes.
The golden bling of gold coins hit him like a truck.
There are at least 30 pieces of gold coins in this bag.
This amount of money is enough to buy a small hotel, forget staying for just 3 months.
Ash’s hands trembled.
This bag is heavier than anything he has ever held before.
Gulp.
Ash couldn’t help but gulp.
“Come on, this shouldn’t be surprising to you.”
Wu Yan told Ash.
“You’re an Arch Dragonar, even if you barely passed, I can’t believe 30 pieces of gold coins are enough to make you flinch. Princess Silvia would be angry with your lack of poise.”
Ash shrunk back.
Silvia already had comments about Ash’s nonchalant attitude as an Arch Dragonar. If Wu Yan told on him then she would probably chew Ash out in anger.
However, Ash is just a commoner from a village.
“I don’t even know if I can earn this much in my lifetime.”
Ash said.
“More like, how do you have so much money?”
“Oh?”
Wu Yan chuckled.
He had literal mountains of gold in his Ring of Gold. A measly pile of gold coins like this isn’t even worth mentioning.
Wu Yan knows that most universes regarded gold as a medium of exchange.
“You wanna come with me?”
Wu Yan invited him.
“We could probably find a hotel.”
“Me?”
Ash shook his head.
“No way, I don’t have the money to stay in a hotel for a month.”
“I invited you, of course, I am not going to make you pay.”
Ash still shook his head.
“I can’t make you pay for me, that isn’t cool.”
“Jeez, you’re such a stick in the mud.”
Wu Yan said.
“Anyway, this money is nothing to me.”
“No, I still refuse.”
“Okay, fine, where are you going to stay?”
“The refugee center?”
Ash sighed.
“If I must.”
“I…”
A petite girl dashed over. She tried to look around before beaming widely upon seeing Wu Yan.
“Lord Rowan!”
“Hmm?”
Wu Yan was preparing to kidnap Ash since he was being too restrained.
“Lucca?”
“Lord Rowan!”
Lucca started panting with her hands on her knees.
“What’s wrong?”
.leader-1-multi-135{border:none !important;display:block !important;float:none !important;line-height:0px;margin-bottom:15px !important;margin-left:0px !important;margin-right:0px !important;margin-top:15px !important;max-width:100% !important;min-height:250px;min-width:250px;padding:0;text-align:center !important;}Wu Yan patted her on her back. Lucca immediately felt warm.
Lord Rowan is so nice.
“E-erm…”
Lucca started fidgeting.
“Lord Rowan, do you have a place to stay?”
“Not yet.”
Wu Yan felt a bit helpless.
“I was actually trying to find a hotel with Ash.”
“N-no, how can that be?!”
Lucca raised her voice of protest before Ash could.
“How can we let Lord Rowan sleep in a dingy hotel?!”
“Ahaha…”
Ash laughed as if he died a little inside.
“I can’t even afford to live in a dingy place like that.”
“I mean, it’s not like we have a choice.”
Wu Yan scratched his cheek.
“You want us to stay in the old dorms?”
“No way!”
Lucca suggested with a firm but red look.
“If Lord Rowan doesn’t mind, I want to offer my room to Lord Rowan!”
“Huh…”
Ash gasped.
“Your room?”
Wu Yan blinked in shock.
“Where will you stay?”
“Me?”
Lucca nervously replied.
“I-I can sleep in the same bed as Lord Rowan.”
“Hah?!”
Wu Yan jumped back.
Ash also dropped the bag of gold coins in his hand.
Did she just…
No way…
“Lord Rowan allowed me to crash in your room once. I was thinking that this is only right to offer in kind.”
Lucca used her puppy eyes on him.
“A-am I not good enough?”
“N-no…”
Wu Yan averted his gaze.
“Won’t it be troubling for you?”
“Not in the slightest!”
Lucca answered.
“I always live by myself, it won’t inconvenience me at all.”
That is what I meant by dangerous…
Wu Yan’s lip twitched while Ash turned into a statue nearby.
