"This will be the office of the Red Security Council, and you will be responsible for member recruitment. We will not intervene in the recruitment process, but please submit the list of members to us before the end of this semester," Lady Cassandra instructed.
"Thank you!" I expressed my gratitude as she left the room.
The office was immense, almost half the size of the Headmaster's office, a true honor to serve as the headquarters of my council.
"Wow, this is quite spacious!" Lady Delith exclaimed as she entered the room, accompanied by Dexus.
"Young Master, what is your plan for the recruitment process?" Dexus inquired as he settled down on the sofa.
"Hmm, I believe we should proactively search for members instead," I replied.
"That would be a better approach. I can bring two of my trusted friends to join us, Young Master," Dexus offered.
"I can bring mine as well," Lady Delith chimed in.
"Alright, so I will meet with them tomorrow for a test," I confirmed.
As we were sitting at the table, we heard a knock on the door. "Lord Lucius, we are here to deliver the uniforms," a lady's voice announced. I had already designed the uniforms for our Red Security Council.
We eagerly received the uniforms and proceeded to try them on.
"This is amazing! Did you design it yourself, Lucius?" Delith asked with excitement.
"Yes," I replied proudly.
"This is fantastic, Young Master!" Dexus exclaimed in approval.
As we were celebrating inside the office, our attention was drawn to the window facing the statue of the First Headmaster of the Academy.
"What was that?" Lady Delith's voice was stern.
"I can feel his murderous aura from here," Dexus added.
Without hesitation, we left the office and climbed onto the rooftop, leaping from one building to another until we reached the rooftop nearest to the statue.
"This would be our first job as the Red Security Council," Lady Delith declared.
"Let's search for the student with the murderous aura," I instructed as we scanned our surroundings vigilantly.
After failing to track down the mage with the murderous aura, we decided to return to the white main building. As we arrived back at the Red Council Office, two girls and three boys greeted us. Shortly after, two boys also arrived.
I had ordered Delith and Dexus to summon their friends today, as a matter had arisen, and it would be better if we could secure the members.
"I am Ayana Chronos from the Chronos Family," the first girl introduced herself.
"I am Crestna Strestar from the Strestar Family," the second girl followed.
"We are the Solistio Trio. I am Louis Solistio," the first boy introduced himself, followed by the second boy, "I am Leo Solistio," and the last boy, "I am David Solistio. We are from a commoner family in the north, but we were able to enroll here because of Master Samson," he explained.
"So, you are students of Uncle Samson," I stated, as Delith and Dexus nodded in agreement.
"I am Lucas Elves"
"and I am Yuri Kuchiro" the two boys introduced themselves,
"Edan Zendred, Albert, and Hermengard Oxford, come in," I said, sensing their presence. Three boys entered the room with a commanding aura. They were the top students of the 2nd Class of the Blue Main Building, which my own class, the 1st Class, was also a part of.
The Academy has different Building each hold a different class, first is we have the Red Main building which students are all Royalties, the second is the Blue Main Building with 3 Classes namely the 1st Class which students are from the 8 High Noble houses, the 2nd Class are from the 1st Class nobles, third is we have the Green Main Building composed of the Marquess and Earls houses, 4th is the Yellow Main Building composed of the Viscount and Barons houses.
"So, everyone is here. I will now assign each of you to different divisions. For the 1st Division, the Captain will be Dexus Desavich, and the members will be Lucas Elves, Yuri Kuchiro, Edan Zendred, Albert, and Hermengar Oxford," I explained. "As for the 2nd Division, the Captain will be Delith Desavich, and the members will be Ayana Chronos, Crestna Strestar, Louis Solistio, Leo Solistio, and David Solistio," I continued. "Any questions?"
"Do we have same uniforms with you guys?" Yuri asked, he is wearing a nerdy glasses
"yes, I will have it delivered in your respective mansions, for now since it is getting late we will dismissed, please be here on the office after each of your classes" I said and dismissed them
"Lord Lucius, the family head is calling for you" a servant announced at the door
"I will be there in a minute" I answered, I was reading my journal about my magic research, my former self had develop a lot magic techniques, but my current state would not be able to used them for now, the suitable technique for me is the Mana Thread and Lightning Manipulation,
I entered my fathers office, and saw him busy signing with lots of papers
"you are here my son" he said and stop everything ang walk towards me
"how are you?" he said as he guide me to the sofa
"I'm doing fine father, thank you for asking" I said
"Dexus is busy creating a Multi-Mana Barrier, and Delith is preoccupied with her Portal Experiments. I was curious about the kind of techniques you are developing," Father said, looking at me with interest.
"Well, I plan on creating two ultimate techniques, Father. The first one is the Mana Thread, and the second is Lightning Manipulation," I replied. Suddenly, Father hugged me tightly, exclaiming, "SUCH A GENIUS SON!!"
"Father, I can't breathe!" I yelled, struggling to free myself from his tight embrace.
"ooh sorry!" father said, "By the way your cousin Tia Grindelwald will arrive tomorrow and she will attend Emerald Academy, the same class as you, so I will expect for you to watch over her" father said
"is that all father?" I asked, "your mother had sent a message from the Imperial Cathedral saying that we shall avoid anything related to the Uncil Magic Tower" Father said, Uncil Magic tower is one of the 9 Magic tower of the Empire, Uncil is the closest one to the Vorgust Capital City.
"I understood father, but why are you telling me this?" I asked
"Being part of the Desavich Family's direct lineage comes with great responsibility. Your younger family members look up to you, and as a family, it is our duty to protect one another. Your mother has informed us that the Magic Towers are on the lookout for children with exceptional magical abilities. She has sent a letter stating that the Emerald Academy is the safest place for you to hone your potential and avoid falling into the wrong hands. That's why she's bringing Tia back to the capital as well. We must take every precaution to ensure the safety and well-being of our family."
Magic Tower has independence to take students from any families except if it is admitted to the 5 great Academy which are the
EMERALD ACADEMY - VORGUST CAPITAL CITY
SAPPHIRE ACADEMY - AVARD CITY
DIAMOND ACADEMY - ORDIN VALLEY
TOPAZ ACADEMY - ANDWALD CITY
CARBUNCLE ACADEMY - ORVIL CITY
(Tia Grindelwald is my cousin, the daughter of my mother's brother, who currently holds the title of Lord of the Snowpiercer Tower. The Snowpiercer Tower and Frostbite Tower are two of the Empire's most powerful towers known as Tower of Magus, serving as guardians against external threats from neighboring nations. Under the leadership of Cain Grindelwald and Abel Amsterdam respectively, these towers are responsible for military strategic planning and border control of the cities under their domain. Together, they divide the nation into two parts, with each tower taking responsibility for their designated area.)
Well two great towers are different from the 9 magic towers.
"I see, don't worry father, we will be fine at the academy" I said and left
even in my previous life I wasn't able to see what is inside the magic towers, on what they do inside it, since magic tower do not let any outsider to enter their towers even if it is the Emperor, and that open my curiosity, well I don't have the ability to infiltrate the towers so I need to work on my own ability and open my second magical core as soon as possible
