Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 92
Ranz and Randell came from the world of Mundo. And each world has a world tree overseeing them.
The Earth’s world tree and Mundo’s world tree made an agreement to let Randell’s soul get into the Earth’s realm, which is now regretted by the Earth’s world tree.
“I trusted her that she would assist the goddess Mila well, but she still messed up, like how she messed up her own world. I guess I made a mistake. ” The lady let out another sigh, which made Pina confused.
“Pick up that one.” The lady pointed her finger, which made Pina look in its direction.
“The gem?”
“No. My twig!”
“Ah yes!” Pina awkwardly picked up the twig that was unusually lying on the clean floor.
“W-what should I do with this?”
“Go!”
Snap!
“W-wait!”
Without further explanation, the lady sent her back to her boss.
She indignantly shouted, “How rude to send me back without explanation!” She made loud gasps once she saw her boss laying on the floor.
“Sir Daniel!”
While still holding the twig in her one hand, she helped Daniel get up from lying on the cold floor.
He is breathing heavily and has a slight fever.
Crunch!
“Ah!” she exclaimed as Daniel suddenly moved toward the twig and bit off its end.
“Sir, that’s a twig!” she exclaimed as she moved the remaining twig away from Daniel, thinking that Daniel was in such a delirious state that he thought the twig was food.
“Ha, I’m fine now.” Daniel said as he stood up while wiping his mouth. Give me that. He opened his hand, gesturing to Pina to give him the world tree’s twig.
“This is not food, sir.”
“I know!” Daniel frowned, which made Pina hurriedly offer the twig to him.
“You can go home now. I’ll finish the job from here on. ” As he straightened his messed-up clothes, he stated solemnly.
While she was exiting Daniel’s office, Pina reminded him again. “Sir, that’s not a food.”
Daniel just gave her a deathly glare that made her runaway.
“Why do you give twigs instead of your fruits? You know that I hate dirt.” He mumbled.
He wasn’t talking to anyone but himself.
He thought that the world tree must be mocking him for giving him a dirty-looking twig instead of its fruits.
He stared at the twig for a moment before taking another huge bite.
Crunch crunch crunch.
He forcibly ate the twig even though he felt like throwing up.
Ha!
He loudly exhaled after finishing eating the twig.
“These wolves! I will surely punish these wolves!” He angrily shouted as he cast a teleportation spell.
Unlike in his previous casting, he is confident that he will not become ill as a result of the twig he ate. It helps fuel his power to help him go beyond his limit.
Daniel went to the pack first to support the fading spell cast by Goddess Mila to protect the wolves. Without it, the pack enemies will discover them and it will only result in a long fight.
“Ha,.. I didn’t have a temple because I hated the long casting of spells, but here I am protecting wolves that I don’t know.” Daniel grumbles internally while doing the job anyway.
It will take time to recast the protection, but that only means he can deal with Randell much later.

“Ha! I’ll be alright! ” Randell shouted while he was standing in front of his door.
He is wearing his office suit that he works hard to wear because he is still not used to wearing one. Chanting motivation to himself in front of the door that he has been hesitant to open so that he could go out and go to work.
“I’ll be fine! I’ll be alright! ” He shouted once more as he finally opened the door and bravely went out of his unit.
He actually wasn’t planning to go out unless Ranz was not back yet, but as he thought about it, if he didn’t go to work, he would ruin the job that Ranz had worked for years.
Feeling bad for his brother, he tried to act as mature as possible even though his mind was still set on being eighteen years old.
“Good morning!” He subconsciously greeted the passerby because he was peeking at him, and that only resulted in a weird reaction.
“Yes, good morning, sir!” The man, who is much older than him, greeted him with sparkling eyes because it was the first time Randell had greeted him, even though it had been decades since they bumped into each other inside the building.
“Yes, good morning.” He said it softly and also greeted everyone else. At first he felt awkward, but the lively response of the people inside the building put him in a good mood.
Knock, knock, knock,
Someone gently knocked on his windshield once he was about to start his car to leave.
“Yes sir?” he asked as he rolled down the window.
” Sir?” The guy with a scar on his face made a grimace after being called “sir.”
“Who is he? Shouldn’t I call him “Sir?” He panics as he tries to think of who the man is picking up inside his car.
“What’s gotten into you that you act friendly to the pack? Forgetting your promises? ”
“I don’t know.” He awkwardly said as he gripped the steering wheel, wanting to drive the car away to escape.
“Hmm? You’re not Ranz. Don’t you?” The man suspiciously asked.
“W-what are you saying? I am Randell!” He awkwardly exclaimed, which made the man laugh loudly.
“I know you’re Randell. So where did Ranz go? ”
The man opened the car and went inside while gesturing at Randell to start the engine.
“W-who are you, sir?”
“I am a friend of Ranz. I know your situation, so don’t worry.” He leisurely leans on the car seat. “What?” he asked. Randell was not starting the engine yet, only looking at him with doubt.
“Oh, no! I am Wendell. Rather than friends, we are more like rivals, but whatever. I sometimes like him; sometimes I don’t.” He then introduced himself. “I am acting as president of CTC and the leader of the pack.”
“L-leader?” He nervously repeated his words as he could not believe the leader of the pack was talking to him.
“Yes, more like I am. My inauguration will be a few more days from now. ”
“Congratulations!” He awkwardly greeted him as he felt like he should congratulate him.
“Haha, thank you for congratulating me!” Wendell loudly laughed and brightly talked to him. “In return, I’ll tour you around!”
He said brightly and pushed the engine to start. Randell was just speechless and just drove the car.
“You can ask me anything.” He said this while humming.
Randell focuses his eyes on the road, but he actually had a question he wanted to know the answer to, but Ranz is not answering him properly.
“Go ahead, ask a way.” Wendell said, as he could tell that Randell had something to ask.
“Ah, I heard all the humans who were attacked ten years ago had their memories erased. How true was that? ”
“Haha! You’re doubting Ranz?
“No-! I just can’t believe that they could remember us anymore. ”
“Then let’s go and check.”
“Check where?”
“I am actually looking for Ranz now to share with him that Nida has applied for work at CTC.” Wendell shared it with excitement.
“She’s going to work at CTC?” Randell exclaimed, and at the same time, wondered how Wendell knew about Nida.
“Not yet, she just sent in her application. I just randomly saw it while I was looking for my own secretary too. Though she doesn’t fit for my secretary, I guess she might be called for admin staff.”
“And so?”
“Let’s go and check.” Wendell keeps his bright smile. Wendell loves to mess with Ranz, but seeing him become weak and gullible just because his other personality takes over, he feels more excited.
Randell didn’t have much to say, and just drove the car straight to their office, although his ears were almost bleeding because of Wendell’s being talkative throughout the trip. Yet, he gained a lot of information from all the talking Wendell did.
“Come on, let’s hurry!” Wendell jumped off the car with excitement.
“Hurry to where?”
“She will have an interview at nine. Let’s join the panel interviewer.”
“How could we even join the interviewee? We are not even part of the HR department?” He asked, as he thought maybe being a president could do anything with his power, but he guessed wrong.
“I have an friend who can alter appearance! We can ask her to change our appearance. Let’s knock down the HR personnel and let’s go instead!”
“T-that’s too much!”
“Don’t worry! Humans are too weak! I can easily alter their memories!” Wendell pushed Randell so they could move out of the parking lot and find the friend he was talking about.
“W-wait! I don’t think this is right!”
“Why do you prefer altering Nida’s memories instead? Okay! Let’s go without disguising!”
