The door opened while many figures entered the room. Every single one of them wore a school dress along with the hand badge which displayed their affiliation. Every single one of them had a serious expression on their faces.
The situation of the country was not very good, the magicians were being kidnapped, later killed. The anti-magic organizations like [Blanch] were making suspicious moves lately, the safety of students was their foremost concern.
The enemy was very smart in their play, many of the individuals currently in the room had lost someone from their family. Their minds were all distracted by unless thoughts thus the efficiency that they usually display was nerfed.
"Greetings everyone, as you know we have gathered here to discuss a very unsettling matter, concerning the safety of the students that come and go out of the school as most of them live at apartments in the city whereas the others live in the logging."
"Most of the students of our school are from prominent clans along with the successor of [11-Masters clan]. The disappearance of our clan members and later the condition of their dead bodies have placed a lot of pressure on authorities."
"We must make sure that the students of our school are safe, to make sure that the people or rather monsters committing such crimes wouldn't attack the students."
"We have limited resources since our respective clans have already dispatched a large amount of it to search for the criminals and hunt them down before they do more damage."
"So we are unable to take much help or assistance from our clans. We need a plan to cope up with the situation, any suggestions???...." Suzune spoke fluently and got the point clear across the minds of the various club leaders and different authority leaders.
"Why don't we ask the students to stay inside school till the criminals are capture or better killed....even if there is a problem with the logging, we will ask the army to provide the resources like tents and other stuff. Even though our clan is busy hunting them we can still use the government authorities." Juumonji suggested will the experience of leading emitting from his body.
It was said that Juumonji Katsuto is a tactical genius who had commanded many soldiers while acting as the leader of the Judo-club.
"I don't think that this is a good idea. The enemy is both skilled and strong enough to avoid so many clans at once is that they have strength and mobility. If we ask all the students to gather in the school and if they are able to infiltrate the school parameters since the new inscriptions are still adapting then we will be placing everyone in danger." Hattori as an expert analyst he was, quickly pointed out the flaw in Katsuto's plan.
"But it is probably the most reasonable move, we can ask for government assistance and also the students aren't weaklings," suggested Mari as she agreed with Katsuto's plan.
"It will only take a large scale [Auxiliary-spell] to knock out most of the noobs whereas the government authorities were that talented to take on someone of this level." A-chan rebutted while the others pondered on the topic to find a way to solve this problem.
"Ichizu-san do you have a suggestion...????" said Ichizu who just turned his head towards Tatsuya and smiled before saying
"What do you say Tatsuya...????" though people may think that leaving someone hanging like this was disrespectful, Ichizu made sure that the other party wasn't affected by it.
Everyone turned towards Tatsuya who was cursing Ichizu for attracting attention to him, keeping his neutral face as he spoke
"It is hard to ensure the safety of everyone, the target of the criminals has been the more prominent magicians from more prominent clans. It is a gamble but I think it is worth a shot."
"We can ask the individuals who are most likely to be attacked to stay within the school premises whereas we can conduct patrols to roam the city and keep a lookout," he suggested with a neutral expression.
"But what if they attacked the other students who are outside, we can't be a 100% sure that those criminals won't hurt them," said Mari with a frown on her face.
"Ichizu-san....." Mayumi looked at Ichizu with a pleading expression that didn't go unnoticed by others.
Ichizu flinched them frowned, seemingly thinking about something. After a long time, he turned towards Nikasu and uttered
"Our clan will not intervene in the matters of the mundane world, this is a vow that our ancestors took and if I can't break it. The Ruujiki clan will not provide any assistance." hearing this most of the people in the room had disappointed expression on their faces.
"But....personally I can mobilize my servants to protect a particular sector. The servants are my own personal help and this is all I can do," said Ichizu.
Hearing the first part, everyone had excited expression on their faces but after hearing the word 'servant', all of it disappeared and was replaced by anger.
"Do you really think that your servants can provide any kind of assistance at all, what kind of person are you to send your servants to fight criminals.!!!!" shouted one of them.
Instantly the temperature dropped to a terrifying degree. Miyuki looked confused as it wasn't her this time, there were no fluctuations of psion around her, Ichizu or Nikasu.
This coldness was wrapped inside the cover of eternal desolate feeling, the feeling of death. It suffocated everyone.
"The 'Servants' I am talking about are not really servants but rather my personal guardians who have been protecting the heirs of the Ruujiki clan since the establishment of the clan," Ichizu said with a smile as a woman appeared behind him.
She wore an ancient cloak and hood which hide her figures, revealing only her pale blue lips. She had a cold feeling about her which sent chill down everyone smile.
"Greeting Nikasu-sama....!!!!" she greeted Nikasu who just nodded at her before moving his eyes back towards the others.
She didn't mind his cold attitude, she knew Nikasu didn't like to talk much with anyone. He loved his personal space and a peaceful atmosphere.
She then turned towards the others and bowed a little before introducing herself "Greetings everyone I name is Medea, I am one of the servants of Ichizu-sama, the Black-King of the Ruujiki clan."
She then glanced at the one who spoke so rudely to Ichizu. To the person, time seemed to have slowed down as she seemingly disappeared and appeared behind the man with a dagger placed on his throat.
No psion fluctuations were felt since she used an ancient spell to teleport beside his and then used another spell to conceal her presence from the others and finally played the [Rule breaker] on his neck.
"I think this should be enough to prove our capability, please do remember that at the end of the day, you are talking with the heir of one of the [11-Masters clan], it will be helpful," she said in a cold tone which caused the person in question to gulp audibly.
