Learning The Ritual | Chapter 212

As the recruits went back to their rooms to unpack, Song Lei sighed a breath of relief. Having to act in such an imposing manner was nerve-wracking. However, if he wanted to be the type of leader he hoped to be, he would need to look relaxed and confident in front of his subordinates. He couldn't let them feel that he was nervous, nor could he act too cold and make them feel intimidated.

"*Sigh... This has become troubling..." He muttered as he put his hands into his pockets and started descending the stairs.

"I was hoping that it would be easier but it seems like I've gotten too used to being alone..." He thought out loud. Initially, when he had first come to the apartment, the place was awkwardly loud. He would hear occasional laughter, constant whispers from somewhere unknown, someone scratching the walls angrily. Random thuds and knocks... These noises would constantly resonate inside the apartment.
