At dawn, Ye Tianyu finally returned to his residence.
He could finally place his heart at ease.
He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but after knowing that he was the cause of the phenomenon, he felt that Chen Zhiwen was looking at him strangely.
“However, he probably wouldn’t think of me right!”
“After all, no one would believe that a Class E mutant could cause such a phenomenon.”
He walked into the familiar apartment building.
He stopped in front of a door.
Ye Tianyu took a deep breath and gently pressed the doorbell.
“Mengmeng… it’s me. I’m back!”
There was a slight noise in the room. After a while, crisp footsteps could be heard. Shortly after, the door opened slightly.
After seeing the person’s bloodstained face, the door closed with a bang.
Ye Tianyu rubbed his nose and spoke again.
“It’s me, I’m Ye Tianyu!”
“You’re Brother Yu?”
As if recognizing his voice, the door slowly opened.
A long-haired girl stood at the door with a baseball bat in her hand. Her bright eyes were wide open as she looked at Ye Tianyu in surprise.
The girl was about the same age as Ye Tianyu and had a slender figure.
She was half a head shorter than Ye Tianyu.
Her face was a little too fair, and her facial features were especially delicate, especially her pair of spirited eyes, which appeared especially bright under the light.
Even though she was not wearing any makeup, she was definitely a beauty.
“Ye Tianyu, you… you still know how to come back?”
This young girl called Xu Wenmeng had a happy expression on her face, but there was a hint of bitterness in her words.
Ye Tianyu smiled and patted her shoulder.
Even though he had awakened his Esper abilities a year ago and had attacked the dungeon more than a hundred times, Xu Wenmeng was worried about him every time he went out.
However, living in this chaotic world, many things were beyond one’s control.
Not everything was his choice.
“Alright, I’m dirty. Don’t dirty your clothes!”
Ye Tianyu raised his hands, but the warmth from his chest forced him to reject the girl’s hug.
This girl called Xu Wenmeng was rescued by Ye Tianyu by chance when he was out. The girl had nowhere to go so she followed him.
Time passed quickly. They had been living together for almost half a year.
“Silly girl, are you just going to let me just stand outside?”
“Okay! Let’s go home first!”
The place Ye Tianyu lived in wasn’t big, but it was decorated very meticulously.
There were two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom, forming a cozy dwelling.
“Brother Yu, why are your clothes so tattered?”
Under the bright lights, the holes on Ye Tianyu’s clothes attracted Xu Wenmeng’s attention.
“There’s blood on it?!” Xu Wenmeng looked at Ye Tianyu worriedly as tears welled up in her eyes.
“Ah? I’m fine… These are the blood of monsters. It must have been left behind during the battle.”
Ye Tianyu felt a surge of warmth in his heart, but in order not to let the girl worry, he could only explain casually in a few words.
“Really?”
Ye Tianyu scratched his head and said with a smile, “They’re just a few ordinary demons. I’m a powerful mutant. How could I be injured?”
“Alright, don’t worry anymore!”
Seeing that Ye Tianyu was not injured, Xu Wenmeng did not ask further.
She did not know that Ye Tianyu had indeed suffered many injuries, but the moment his Class Advancement was completed, those wounds were healed.
“Mengmeng! Have you been well since I left?”
“Everything’s still the same… But two days ago, the landlord called and asked about the rent this month.”
“Don’t worry about the rent. Leave it to me!”
Ye Tianyu wasn’t too surprised when he heard about this.
This was because in the past few months, he didn’t earn a lot as a substitute in the assault team. Summing up all the miscellaneous expenses, all the money should almost be used up.
Not only did they have a hard time living, but they had also delayed their rent for a few months.
But he had obtained quite a number of items from the hidden dungeon this time. It should be enough for a long time.
Although Ye Tianyu appeared relaxed, only Xu Wenmeng was worried.
She wasn’t a mutant, but she had some understanding of them.
Most of the mutants who could enter the dungeon had high levels and were very powerful. Ye Tianyu was only a low-level Class E mutant…
“During these years, all kinds of powerful demonic creatures have appeared. Brother Yu, why don’t you stop being a mutant?” Xu Wenmeng held Ye Tianyu’s hand, her eyes filled with worry.
“Silly girl! Ordinary people can’t become mutants even if they want to. Besides, if I don’t become a mutant, how are we going to eat and drink whatever we want, and pay the rent?” Ye Tianyu was stunned for a moment and said jokingly.
“Brother Yu, I don’t want to go to school anymore. I can find a simple job and earn some income… Even if we have to eat less and wear cheaper clothes, I don’t want you to continue risking your life in the dungeon.”
When Ye Tianyu heard that, he was touched!
Perhaps in the eyes of others, he was just a weakling without any sense of existence, but Xu Wenmeng placed him in an important position.
Ye Tianyu’s expression was calm, but his heart was filled with warmth.
“Mengmeng! I, Ye Tianyu, am no longer the same me as before. Please believe me.”
Seeing that Xu Wenmeng was confused, he explained again.
“I’ve awakened a very powerful class. Be it strength or level, I’ve become much stronger.”
“So you don’t have to worry. I’ll definitely protect myself and you in the future!”
Xu Wenmeng did not say anything else as she had tried to persuade Ye Tianyu several times in the past.
She understood Ye Tianyu’s character. It was difficult for her to change what he had decided.
“Alright, you still have lessons tomorrow. Rest early!”
Ye Tianyu had spent most of his time in the hidden dungeon recently. After comforting Xu Wenmeng to sleep, he rushed to the bathroom.
Unknowingly, he had been in the hidden dungeon for a month. He had used up all his clothes and other necessities. The smell of blood and sweat filled his body…
Ye Tianyu found it hard to tolerate his “manly smell”.
Heave!
Half an hour later, Ye Tianyu walked out of the bathroom.
A satisfied expression appeared on his face.
His original clothes were packed and thrown into the trash can. He was wearing a loose pajamas with a cartoon cat image on it.
Of course, he did not buy it himself. It was a gift from Xu Wenmeng when he was 18.
Initially, Ye Tianyu wanted to count his gains this time, but after the recent high-intensity battles, he had been in a tense state and fell asleep as soon as he laid on the bed.
