"Now you know why I asked you to do this, huh?" Rain rose to her feet with a smile on her face and patted Gale on the shoulder.

"Ask your subordinates to do it for you if you find it too disgusting," added Rain.

"I'll do it when I can't take it anymore." Gale walked up to the second floor and continued with his work.

Rain returned to the third floor to continue work too.
