Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 89

“Don’t tell me we developed a third personality.”

“What?” Ranz sneered at Randell’s ridiculous assumption. “What do you think of us? So you think we can multiply?”

“Well, you act differently at home and at the office. What would I think of it?” Randell pouted, which made Ranz fore a genuine smile, thinking that Randell was still a child despite having a matured body.

“My attitude defends the people’s attitude towards me,” he explained.

“Why? Does the pack treat you badly? ”

“These days? Not at all. They are more likely to respect or fear us, Although I started to like them, I can’t act friendly towards them anymore. But if you want to be friendly with them, you’re free to do so. It’s just my own feeling. ”

Randell did not respond to Ranz’s statement because he does not agree with it, but he also cannot argue with it.

“Ugh!”

Ranz was startled when someone suddenly slapped his back.

“You’re smiling? Something good happened?” Ranz, an old-looking guy with a messy office suit, talked to them, but Ranz immediately made a grimace as he smelled the sweat and bad odor of his co-worker.

“Ugh! Sir Jonel! You smell bad!” He complained.

“What’s wrong with him, Ranz? It is still early morning. Why did he smell like it was the end of the day?” Randell asked, since he could also smell what Ranz could smell. Their senses are sensing the same thing because they share one body.

“Ah! that is because I haven’t gone home yet. I was out assisting the rescue team. ” He replied while smelling his own shirt too, and made a disgusted expression as soon as he smelt his bad odor.

“Is there something happening?”

“Ah, the goblins and dwarves fought again. A territorial issue. Our delivery truck was dragged into it. ”

“How come?”

“The fight happened while they were in the middle of delivery.”

“Oh? What race was the crew assigned? ”

“Humans.” Sir Jonel responded, looking very troubled.

“Oh, that would be a real problem.”

“Yes, very bad timing. Why do they have to fight at the same time we had humans assigned to that time?”

“Can’t we stop sending humans to do deliveries?”

“We will be short of staff if we don’t include the human workforce. The diligent worker supernatural race is pretty small. ”

“Hmm. true. Anyway, give me the documents. I’ll take over. Go home and wash up. You smell like a goblin!”

“Sheesh. Yeah, thanks. Yuck. This is so disgusting. ” Sir Jonel went inside to their office first, and Ranz followed behind.

“What kind of work are you two talking about? It doesn’t sound normal.” Randell commented that he didn’t get what they were talking about with Sir Jonel.

“Some of the employees here are not human, and some of the items we are distributing are for other races’ consumption.”

“Does this type of company exist?”

“Yes, It is. This exists. Don’t worry, this company’s purpose is to help and deliver. It’s pretty harmless.”

“Oh, this is pretty cool. How did you find out about this?”

“This company is pretty famous in the supernatural world.”

Ranz went to his seat, and, of course, he was greeted by his other officemates.

“You’re living pretty well. Is my waking up at such a bad timing?” Randell asked, as he realized that Ranz was doing well alone.

“What nonsense? I am not complete if you’re not here.” Ranz rolled his eyes as he started to open his computer. “Stop making me say cheesy things and observe well so that you won’t find it hard to adjust later.”

“You really going to let me take over your body?”

“Why not? I had a decade to use this. It’s your time now. ”

Ranz opened a file on his computer and showed it to Randell.

“I usually spend time watching the GPS and tickets of this company’s delivery trucks.” Ranz said, he feels like he is turning over to Randell his job as a safety officer.

Randell exclaimed, “GPS? Why?” as he thought that Ranz’s job was boring.

“Yeah, to monitor their speed limits, accidents, or traffic penalties. That’s my normal job if a supernatural being is not involved.”

“What about the supernatural?”

“My job on that dark side is to ensure that the humans who witness the “accident” will have their memories altered to hide the existence of the supernatural. Sometimes my job is to ensure that human employees won’t find out about the weird stuff we sometimes mix with ordinary items. ”

“Weird stuff?”

“Like blood for vampires, meat for aswang, Tabaco for kapre, etc. etc. Don’t worry, we only deliver. The source is not shady at all. ”

“How is that not shady at all? You’re delivering those things? How many humans die? ”

“Haha! No Randell Please stop imagining wildly. There’s a law. So we can’t kill humans for food. The sources are blood banks or hospitals. ”

Randell was relieved to hear that the company wasn’t as shady as he thought.

“Can you wait a moment? Let me check these documents first, and let’s go out later. ”

“Okay.”

Randell silently waited for Ranz to finish.

“Done?”

“Yes, where do you want to eat? It’s your first time eating again, so take over the body so you can enjoy it. ”

Randell smiled and appreciated Ranz’s effort to make him adjust to the new environment.

But eating for the first time is not a big deal for Randell because he doesn’t feel that it’s been so long since he was asleep. In fact, he feels like it was just yesterday that he was still eighteen years old.

Let’s go to Jobillee (a fast food chain).

“Jobillee? Are you a kid? ”

“Wow. You should not ask if in the end, you won’t take me to where I want. ”

“Haha no. Let’s go to Jollibee. ” Ranz said, chuckling.

“Let’s order what we usually order with Nida.” Randell said excitedly.

“What do we usually order?”

“Why? Can’t you remember it? It’s the Chicken Torpedo! ”

“C-chicken torpedo?” Ranz bursts out laughing once more. That made the people around him look at him strangely, as if he was laughing alone. “That’s gone from the menu!”

“What? Since when was it phased out?” ” Randell feels bad that he can no longer taste the chicken sandwich that the three of them enjoyed before.

It’s a sandwich filled with thick and crispy chicken strips, washed with delicious white sauce and blanketed with fresh lettuce.

They share the same sandwich that they always cut in half.

Randell looked forward to eating at Jobillee because it’s their favorite fast food chain and where they used to date because it was the most affordable option for students.

Fortunately, there is a nearby Jollibee in their building.

Even though he is disappointed that there was no chicken torpedo, they ordered other things to fill up their stomachs.

Clang!

Randell’s fork fell on the floor once someone hit the table he was eating at.

He silently picked up the fork because he thought it was unintentional.

Bam!

The fork fell off again when someone slammed into his table.

“Why is the wealthy wolf eating here?” A lean man slammed his hands on his table again, while at his back, his two minions were scornfully looking down at him. He was still in his position of picking up the fork, which made him look as if he was kneeling in front of the three, getting bullied.

“Do you know them?” Randell asked Ranz.

“Horses.”

“Horses?”

Ranz is calling the trio horses even though they all look human for Randell.

“Yeah, I don’t personally know them, but they hate wolves for no reason.”

“Do they bully you?”

“What am I a kid? Of course not. ”

“Then what should we do?”

“Let’s just ignore them. I actually will get in trouble if I harm another horse. ”

“Why did you encounter them?”

“Yes, a long time ago. Sorry if you can’t finish your food, but let’s just go.” Ranz took control of the body, and he stood up to ignore the trio and leave the place.

Bam!

The lean man kicked the high chair, trapping Randell and the trio surrounded him.

“Oh boy, are you escaping? Don’t worry, let’s just talk. ” While looking down at Ranz, the lean man said with a scornful expression.

“There are a lot of humans here; let’s not make a scene.” Ranz said, expressionless.

“Oh, so you’re willing to fight us? Come on, let’s go to the park. ”

The three surrounded him and urged him to walk out of the restaurant while he was inside the triangle formation that the three made.

“Are you really going to fight them?” Randell nervously asked, as he had never gone to fight before.

“No. I’d get in trouble if I ended up killing them too. ”

“K-kill? What? ”

“I actually killed some a few years ago, and I got a warning from their guardian that if I kill more of the race she guards, I’ll be punished.”

“Who’s this guardian?”

“God or goddess.”

“Y-you can talk to God and Goddess?”

“You will have a chance to talk to them if you offended them.”

“Do wolves have one guardian too?”

“Yes.”

“Who?”

“Goddess Mila. Remember the one who sent us here? She’s our race guardian.” Ranz crosses his arms while staring at the trio around him.

“I envied this horse’s god because he seemed so concerned about the horses that he even appeared to personally speak to me after I killed his subject.”

“Didn’t you get punished?”

“No, I just got a warning. But I am not sure if I can keep my composure towards these horses. ”

Ranz smirked and kicked the lean man the moment they entered the park.

“Oops, sorry I slipped.”
