Finley. Finley. Finley.
Someone like him would be the perfect vassal to have. However, based on what Dustin is saying, he is a very ambitious man. That type of person would be really dangerous by your side.
The person that is considered to be a prodigy, but is also a threat to my future.
Finley, are you going to be my ally or my enemy?
"By the way Dustin, how do you know so much about him? I can say based on words that you really did your research on him."
"Wait, I have not told you about my dream yet, brother?"
I shook my head.
"I have always been a good listener as well as a skilled investigator, which is why my goal is to become a Journalist. As a journalist, your main weapon is information. Which is why if you need more information, you can always come to me, brother."
Dustin wants to be a Journalist. He might be goofy at first, but that is certainly a major asset for him. I can now see how useful that skill will be when you want to gather information. However,
"If you wanted to be a Journalist, you could have applied to other schools that specialize in journalism and then join a huge company. Why did enroll here in Fevrier?"
"Brother, I did not know you were that clueless!"
"What?!"
"Everyone that goes to Fevrier is an ambitious person. That includes me. This school guarantees success as soon as you graduate. The common paths here are Soldiers, Businessmen, or Politicians, but that does not mean I can't be a Journalist. Besides, I am not aiming on becoming a normal Journalist, I want to start my own Company. I am an Ambitious and Greedy man after all."
"I see, I am very sorry for being short-sighted."
"No, it's alright. I know that you are still undecided on your path which is why you are probably confused. Why don't we call it a night?"

Our lights are now turned off. Dustin is now snoring but I still cannot sleep.
First of all, I never expected Dustin to be that kind of guy. I am a very judgmental person.
I thought that he is the type that takes things easy, but just like he said, every student in Fevrier is an Ambitious Person. No one comes here half-heartedly. This is a prestigious school that has a 100% success rate.
Dustin being a Journalist is still a surprise. In the future when I become King, I definitely need information. If I can see that Dustin is able to gather more information with great efficiency, I will recruit him no matter what.
Anyways, I still need to know more about Finley. He is the Leader that started the Golden Era of the Bloodless Students. He is a great man, but I still need to know more about him.
With that being said, I need to measure my worth in comparison to him.
I originally planned on laying low, but it looks like I need to make my move sooner rather than later.
It would have been great if I can try to accomplish a Freshmen Treble, but since I am not part of the Main Event of the Field Day, I need to focus on other things.
As much as I hated the idea of the Talent Showcase, looks like I am going to try my best at the circus.
Enough of that. Tomorrow is going to be the first time I am going to meet Finley the Astute. I need to assess him first. Let's grab some sleep.

Today is Wednesday. We will be having our Bloc Meeting.
I just finished my breakfast together with Dustin.
It feels weird having a meal without Frank, which I have not seen ever since I told him about my plan.
"Do you know where should we go now, Dustin?"
"I believe that we should be heading to the Bloodless Bloc Hall, but I have better plans."
Uh oh, Dustin sounds like someone who is about to get into trouble.
"What is it?"
"You said that you want more information, right?"
I nodded.
"Well, you are in luck. Do you want to know about the other Bloc Presidents from the Pure Bloods and the Half-Bloods?"
The two Presidents?!?!?
"I sure do want to know about them, but how does this connect with our destination?"
"I already did my research about all the three Presidents but it will be more interesting if we can see them in person. Let's Go!"
Dustin then started to run and since I have no choice, I followed him even though I still have my doubts.
"What do you mean by meeting them? Will we see them in person together? Why would they meet each other?"
"Because this will be the first time they will be meeting since last school year. Don't you want to see our Bloc Leader in action? I am getting giddy just by imagining their interactions! If I was an actual reporter, the headline would be 'The Three Leaders clashing with their wits on the Third Day of School!' Imagine the number of sales I could get by that!"
I guess Dustin drops his 'brother' quirk whenever he is excited. I do learn something new about him every day.
"If they are going to meet, won't this be something that the entire school should know? Why isn't it talked about enough?"
"It's because this is confidential information! Only the teachers know about it. I overheard it at the faculty office. This is why we are going to be sneaking into their meeting room right before they enter it. Isn't this exciting?!"
"No, it's definitely not! Do you know how much in danger we are if we get caught? Never mind, you can do it by yourself. Do not worry, I won't be snitching you."
As I was about to run away, Dustin grabbed me.
"You can bail out now, brother. We already arrived!"
Oh, now you are going to bring back the brother. I can see how Frank is annoyed by him.
Just like what Dustin said, we are already in the room.
The room is just a standard meeting room with a huge conference table and chairs It was still empty.
"Brother, over here!"
I headed to Dustin where he found a Cabinet that can fit two people in it.
"Perfect! There is a hole directly in our eyes!"
Since I am already committing illegal violations, I might as well grab the opportunity and gather information here. It won't be the end of the world if I get expelled, right?
