"why are you here?"
"Do you know me?"
'how can I not.... My seatmate, that cocky looking girl, why did she join our party'
".... I'm Sigrid Armanoff, a Lieutenant"
Jon exclaimed, "a westerner...?"
"yes" she answered
'waow... She's from the house of Armanoff, their reputation is declining these days because of the first child, and the empire cares no more of their feats, it wasn't that great in the first place when compared to the dukes, but the likes of Reinard's father who reached that position through wealth. She might have a grudge against him... However I can't send her away... Let's see how it goes'
Rein continued to stare at her harboring all kind of feelings, she stared at Rein too and after a while she asked. " why the f@#k are you looking at me??"
Everyone including Zolin who was busy on his desk exclaimed with their expression.
She cleared her throat, " hm hm... Well, I'll wait in the guest room, when you all are done let's move together" She turned to leave but instead someone badged in.
She was in fury and her red hair was messed up, "oh my f@#kin head. I'm so sick and tired of this motherf#@ka acting all high and mighty just because your dad got a few money."
Everyone including Sigrid were unable to close their mouths. Rein stopped forward, "what is it again you have with me?"
"why won't you let me join your party?"
"because we are full"
Quetz looked around and scoffed, "what... you've got invisible members now?"
"that doesn't matter, I'm the party leader I'll accept whatsoever numbers I want"
"seriously I think you hold grudges, logically we haven't really met"
"yet you have threatened me many times"
"me?? When did I? This is an obvious lie" she looked at Zolin who immediately flung his face away.
".).. No party is accepting my proposal"
"that's a lie" Rein smirked.
"No its not" her expression changed, "my brother thinks I'm a nuisance"
'all that face will not work on me... try again later'... You are"
"what? you have no ounce of respect how old are you?"
"none of your business."
"what do you want"
"for you to get out"
"my boobs... My a$$" she smirked.
"shut it and get out"
She jumped on Reinard, held his arm and began to caress her boobs on his arm. "pleaaassee..."
Rein closed his eyes 'what the hell is this... I've never felt this... oh devil, no.... no...'
"are you sure" she wrapped her hands around his neck, pressed her boobs on his chest and gave him a solemn smile.
'no!! don't give in... don't give in!!!...'
"Fine" Zolin dragged her away from Rein, "let her join I'll keep her under control"
Reinard finally began to breathe well. "well let's do that"
"hehe" Quetz smirked at him. "a man will always be a man"
Rein nose began to bleed and the whole room began to laugh at him.
"I guess Rein is like every other man, oh my God I almost mistook you for a priest" Zolin exclaimed as he laughed.
Jon smiled silently and glanced at Sigrid who was also smiling but hiding it. "(we have a bright future ahead of us)"

The students assembled on the large meeting ground, the academy compound was heavily decorated, it was very beautiful compared to the first time they got in.
Towards the right side of the students a large bouquet was situated, the announcer began.
"first we shall begin with the arrival of the alumni and our honored guests."
bang bang bang bang bang bang bang
The drums began to beat. Then the people began to enter.
A tall man with long black beards stood up he wore a black and simple robe and his long air was packed and combed neatly. The announcer announced his name.
"We welcome you best graduating student of Frustoritosche el Mancraa academy year 76XX"
The students all shouted "we welcome you sir!"
All visitors were announced and it took over an hour, there was a representative of the union as usual but it wasn't the twin this time. After he took another hour to give his boring speech. The game was finally about to begin.
The head instructor took over, "we will now begin today's game. We have a total of 33 parties each with at most 40 members and at least 3 members. Today's game will be between students, but we'll be paring you all up with alumni, fortunately 35, alumni volunteered to be part of which 15 of them were best graduating student, and all of them are high rank Artician military officials. They will coordinate your team and you'll learn teamwork from them, APs will be assigned based on their ratings of each student."
The alumni walked to the students and each began to select their teams. A blonde a guy walked up to Rein's party, he looked at Jon. " are you the party leader?"
"No sir, it's him" Jon pointed towards Reinard, who was a bit disappointed, the alumnus judged based on strength, so he must've perceived Jon as the strongest amidst them, he has struggled so much but was still considered weak, it hurt his pride.
He looked at Rein, who was standing stiff. "it's you?... Why?"

[An ominuous eye is looking at you]

The alumnus began to bleed from his eyes, 'what?I can't see anything... why? Does he have an eye prowess like mine..?'
He looked at Rein again and smiled, "I look forward to working with you"
