After the banquet ended, Sky invited the leader of organizers to a small meeting, K joined them.
"Now it's just five of us, would you mind letting us know what is your purpose for preparing these three sets of outfits?" Sky asked, referring to the outfit worn by him, Chris, and Maria.
Hearing the question from Sky, the leader of organizers does not dare to respond and looks rather nervous, while K is obviously intrigued by that question from Sky, he turned his eyes to the organizer's leader, he is interested to know the answer as well.
"When you arranged this sort of plan, you should have already expected what you will be facing right now, so it's meaningless to stay silent about it." said Chris, in a flat tone while playing with a precious stone he just got as one of the many prizes from their first place's prize.
"Rest assured, we had discussed with K and decided not to be too harsh on you with whatever you had done. That is naturally including this one." said Sky.
"I don't know whether you believe me or not, I was trying to find out the answer of something I am concerned about." said the organizer, referring to the outfit's issue.
"I see, so did you find what you were looking for?" Sky asked. The organizer nodded.
"Great, then now it's our turn to get the information we had been looking for, from you." said Sky in a serious tone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without wasting any time or words, Sky and Chris get directly to the point and stated they real intentions of joining the tournament, although Chris insisted the main concern is still the dragon egg.
After confirming that the leader of the organizer is indeed a Dracula Follower, they started to inquire him about the Enomoto's family and how did they relate to Dracula and Dracula Followers. However, the leader of the organizer doesn't seem to be very clear about that, according to him, there are several different clans of Dracula Follower, their clan is merely worshipping and supporting Draculas of each generation without having any intentions to intervene in the revival of Dracula or anything related about it. The one that related to Enomoto's clan and the revival of Dracula is probably another clan that had disappeared all of a sudden a few centuries ago. All he knows is that, there was indeed a family with the surname of Enomoto that live in the nearby town, and after that clan is disappeared, that Enomoto's family is pretty much wiped out too for some unknown reasons, leaving just two survivors still living in a small village far away from that town.
Knowing that the man is not lying, Sky and Chris decided to let K in charge of that man with a condition to keep him alive as they might need him again some other time. As soon as the organizer is taken away by C-760 for custody purposes, Sky and Chris proceed with the discussion about another important issue with K, while Maria continues to daydreaming as he almost totally didn't or didn't have a chance to participate in the discussion.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You want to know more about that young marshal? Ask anything you want, I shall answer if I have the answer." said K with no hesitation at all.
"Are you sure about it? I mean, it is about your superior and will most likely be touching on some sensitive military information." Sky asked.
"I am totally fine about that. Don't worry, I know what I am doing." said K.
"Hmm... You definitely don't sound quite royal to that superior of yours, don't you?" Chris asked.
"I have no comment on that." said K.
"Alright then... I am wondering if you know that Mr. Blair is the one that nominated that young marshal to be the current marshal?" Sky asked.
"Yes, it had been spreading among the squads, especially when it's someone this inexperienced to be one of the highest authority in Alliance's military." said K.
"Ah-ah... It seems like you are not very satisfied with that young marshal huh?" said Chris.
"I shall have no any complaints upon any decision of Mr. Thomas." said K, in a determined tone.
"So... Mr. Thomas actually knows and agrees about the nomination huh? But don't you think there is something weird about that nomination? I thought Blair is considered as an outsider for Alliance and an outsider has no power at all at the nomination of high-ranking military units of Alliance. Didn't Mr. Thomas know about that too?" said Chris, in a serious manner.
"Well, Mr. Thomas knows it more than anyone it's just that it's is said to be a recommendation from a high-rank official in the Kingdom. But from your look right now, I doubt if the Kingdom even knows about this matter." said K, a bit concerned.
"Well, I guess your doubt is right on the point. Do you have any idea which 'high-rank official' is that?" Chris asked.
"To be honest, I am not very clear about that, but I remembered they do have an official seal from the Kingdom... Oh! And one more thing, I don't know if this will be helpful or not but that day, when Mr. Blair came by the Alliance headquarter, he was followed by a faceless man." said K.
"Wait what? Faceless man?" Sky exclaimed, rather shocked.
Maria who had been daydreaming shocked as well when he heard about the faceless man.
"Faceless man... It can't be that guy again... Right?" said Chris, rather troubled...

*Something out of the story
Sky: "Dear readers."
Chris: "Hmm?"
Sky: "This chapter is meant to be released for webnovel.com."
Chris: "Oh! This matter. Yes, if you're reading this chapter on another platform than webnovel.com, know that it's an illegal copy diffused without the Writer's authorization."
Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."
Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."
Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."
Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
