Chapter 44: I Cucked Who Now?![GTG]

With a sharp clicking sound, the door of their dorm room swung open, and they both stepped out, appearing in the corridor.
Without further ado, they turned their heels and made their way towards the elevator at the far right corner of the corridor. As expected, they could see students loitering about with no sense of direction.
It was late noon now, and students who had nothing to do were trooping into the dormitory.
"So what exactly did you say is up with our current roommate?" Ryan asked, just to strike up a conversation.
"Bastard’s got plenty of points to throw around, I guess. He probably just felt too superior to us low ranks and couldn’t stand sharing a room, so... He rented one," Luke shrugged as casually as he spoke.
But Ryan, who was hearing this for the first time, had his interest piqued by this fact,
"Wait, You can rent a room?" Ryan asked.
"Well yeah! The academy makes provision for that. I mean you could literally live in a room which should only be reserved for high rankers, but that shit murders your finance you know," he clicked his tongue.
"Like you really gotta splurge big time. I heard some of those rooms charge a thousand a week, and the cheapest I hear is five hundred.... I mean, where the heck will broke ass weaklings like us, and I’m mincing words right now, like the lowest of the lowest rankers, who only get ten points a day, find such wealth?! ....Well, there are missions though, but... Nah, with classes and stuff I don’t think I can hold out," he said with a refusing shake of his head.
"But that shouldn’t apply to rich bastards, they should be able to afford it, or can’t they? I mean even if they are low rankers, they ARE rich bastards," Ryan asked, finding Luke’s explanation laughable.
