Yunan was feeling very happy on his way back to his room with Leol shouldering him, the words Balin and Lucian said were obviously in his favour, although Bai and Fae did not mention him, they did not refute the other two which brought a smile to his face. now that the Debauchery party sided with him, no matter who targeted him, if he lost a single hair, the culprit would suffer.
along the way, Yunan and Leol grumble loudly about how cruel Debauchery was to a ten year old, although Yunan could barely contain his happy mood he still, tried to look grumpy and hurt. still there were more kids who stopped them to ask what happened, and as per agreement we Bai, Yunan described how he was pushed beyond his limit during practice and being denied rest.
Yunan and Leol could not even start talking in their own room before they were interrupted by continuous knocks, mere moments after each other, as if waiting for the story to change, after the twelfth student even an employee came by, thus the duo decided to put a 'do not disturb' paper on the door, explaining that a resident has been drained of energy during training and needed rest immediately, yet still there were security officers and other employees knocking on the door to see the root of this commotion in the dorms, when Leol opened the door for them Yunan played possum and laid face down, and body sprawled all over the bed, that worked until dinner time where another group gathered around their door to see if Yunan would come out, but only Leol left and came back with some food in his hands, indicating his roommate to be still out of commission.
Mean while Yunan told Leol about all the silly requests he heard about from Debauchery and got him to almost throw up his dinner from hard laughter, once the mood calmed down, Yunan also told him what Leader said and about the last discussion before end of class, which brought a smile to Leol. " i don't think this time is like the other times" Leol started "if i am thinking through this correctly, someone wants their own child to be trained under Debauchery, especially since they all decided to teach together, instead of only one member at the time, lucky for you, you ended up the as their student. i think when the news spread about the guild giving Debauchery the right to teach the same student, after a well done quest, and marking the official fulfillment of the rule that all adventurers under the guild must teach, having all of Debauchery teach the same class even if it was a single kid, it reduces the possible dangers the student could face in a backwater city like ours from all those powerful nobles who are worth more to the guild, and not even killing half the student in here would make the guild reprimand them in any way".
"so, as you can see, a certain extremely powerful noble, most likely a royalty close to the guild contacted the local nobles for information about how Debauchery teaches you, and the result is that every student related in any way to a noble has been ordered to gather information for a price or a reward, i think my family never sent anything because they thought it would useless with the amount of effort, at least grandpa would think it is a hassle and would rather not be included unless personally contacted, by the looks of it, it was just someone asking for news on behalf of said powerful noble, and grandpa is not the guy to join a stampede."
Yunan had a flash of inspiration "why not contact your family then? if there's a reward we can split it, between your family and my orphanage, your grandpa sounds trustworthy so lets get him to do it", "are you planning to sell information about the training? that is low brother, very low" Leol missed what Yunan was talking about and assumed the worst.
"who said anything about selling information about training, think carefully, what is the best information anyone can supply to the big noble? giving that they want their child to train under Debauchery, there are two answers: first is how to approach Debauchery in a way that can guarantee a reply, which is already far more than many nobles before him got. Second is whether the training they designed is effective or not. These two points are the core what the big noble needs right? any other information is practically useless, because even if the method is leaked, only debauchery can perform the training without a hitch, thus knowing about it is useless. got my point?" Leol thought for moment before his eyes brightened " i see, we tell them things that has nothing to with Debauchery, and still help the big noble get what he wants, and we get paid for it, damn you got smarter just by being in contact with those guys, i wanna join in on the fun, even if it is hell now it will be worth it.", "we can bring it up with Leader once the big noble makes his move, that way it would sound like they choose you, when there was an opening to recruit more students because they are familiar with you, no matter if the big noble gets rejected or not, no one would make any trouble for us or Debauchery for choosing someone they know when they had a chance at recruiting"
"Well let's leave that for later, what should we write in the letter mister 'better at thinking'?". "easy, tell your grandpa that you are my roommate and how we want the reward split first, then tell him that the only way to receive a reply and maybe gain a meeting with Debauchery is to send a messenger through the guild, to inform them about whatever the big noble is wishing to talk about, it would be more effective if it was the big noble himself who issued the invitation to talk, also who ever came to make the contact must treat all members equally, and not ask to meet the leader, otherwise it's futile effort. next is when they meet the party expect to be offended at all times, because they simply do not care about anything unrelated to them. gain their respect by being honest and straightforward, do not humour them and do not patronise them, that is worse than being arrogant in front of them, expect failure as much as you expect success, and make sure the subject of the meeting is present, if they like them, you can forgo all the previous rules and acts as you will. Finally, tell them that as someone who is in direct contact with the training that it is effective and innovative. also stress the rules again at the end of the letter, if they don't like being bound by those rules, just forget about it"
Leol hastily noted down the points Yunan mentioned and sealed it in an envelope to be sent tomorrow, he did not need to write more than that since his grandpa would know what to send to the big noble better than him, he just provided the most basic points. "for a group of excentrics like them, it is fairly easy to get to them, i wonder how come no one thought of that". "that i know" yunan answered "because this method makes those elites in the dungeon look down on you and maybe reject you just for not licking their boots, but Debauchery does not live for the dungeon, they roam the world and when they are bored, they return to Tartarus, to them proper behaviour is worth more than whatever others think is a shorter way towards success, now go to sleep, we have workout to do early".
