Chapter 12 - Breaking news to the public

"Finished, my lord"

"This is it. It's finally my time~!"

The antagonist smiled weirdly wide and put on a leather coat, which he believed would make him look cool, and wore a rather fashionable mask to keep his identity a secret from the public. He has now started off his plan...

---------------------------

I. really. do. want. to. die. for. real. I had to skip school for 1 week straight because of some missions sent off by the boss to another city. I must feel thankful I needed not do them alone. My buddy, Xen accompanied me, of course. I wouldn't have finished all successfully if it weren't for him, though I miss my teachers, my classmates, including Eryx. By all means, I'd missed out some part of my daily basis. 

I found myself in front of Eryx's house... I bought him a souvenir to give and for the class too obviously. When I was in the living room with a real housewife mom, no offense, she is attractive like her son, though, the "agent" mom was in the kitchen and Eryx is nowhere to be seen. I was talking with Mrs. Bells Davis; before marriage, it was only Silverie Bells, until I caught sight of Eryx and Felix coming back here from hanging out outside. They seem oddly close, anyhow, it's none of my business. Felix spotted me immediately and left the house. I've got no idea why. Maybe because he thinks I'm a bully? I rushed to Eryx to give him the present and almost left his home when his other mom, Mrs. Davis; Xantara Davis, stopped me to insist myself to stay in a while for lunch. How can I say no to food? Mrs. Davis put on some news on the TV. We were relaxing and enjoying our meal before the news of a "New Villain In town" came rubbing it in our face. "我什么时候可以从这样的工作中退休? 我需要休息." muttered Mrs. Davis. I believe that meant, she wanted to take some days off missions. Same goes to me, Mrs! She urgently left the dinning table to, as I've calculated, stop the mess in public. I needed to too, however, I can't make myself be seen as a suspect. I dined quickly and made an excuse of wanting to get some fresh air. Surprisingly, Eryx walked me out of the house 'till the nearby car park. We both could see the horrible danger from afar. 

----------------------------------------

"Y'all will obey me as I AM your newest LEADER of this town" expressed the villain.

"How about I make you obey me" said a cold voice from behind the person.

An action scene took place in the Central Market of Avaric. There were several injuries due to the course of this. Later on, Eryx and I both caught up to it. It was no secret anymore. Mrs. Davis was protecting from such danger, HER society, not mine. Have I been informed with the wrong intelligence? Anyways, the new powerful villain was slightly outdoing Eryx's mom. I saw it on his face; full of rage and worriedness. At the same time, a murderous looking character appeared from one of the shops which almost looks like Eryx's other mom, but I could be wrong, and nearly damage the new awareness for civilization here. God, it would have been a sudden shock for Eryx, though he only seemed furious. We looked at each other, our eyes were locked during an incident like this. It only lasted a few minutes since I've recieved a text from Xen. 

Ayden, Come by the office this evening. They have some strangely admission to tell us. 

That is unexpected, plus unusual. I said bye to Eryx as he ran towards his mother. Everyone were studying them. He seemed scared. Although I wanted to help, I had a job on the other hand. I'm terribly sorry about this.

---------------------------------

The place is oddly quiet, usually it is full with bizzare machines and so on. I knocked before I went in. There were only two of them inside, one's Xen and the other's my boss. What were there to tell me? 

"Mate, you still haven't succeeded the mission that was given to you. It is still pending"

"Oh, That-, I-"

"Nevermind that. Xen and I have discussed the brand new operation for you to carry out."

Xen and what? An operation?

"Yes?"

"I'm sure you've already been alerted by the bad antagonist just now."

"Correct"

"I need you to help him in many ways"

This is INSANE. Can't you see how many innocent people were deadly harmed!!?? I wanted to shout. But I couldn't. I need this career. If I'd been sent off from the team, my parents will never be convinced with how I can take care of myself. I wouldn't be able to walk around freely, do anything freely really! I also need the money to pay for my acting course. They'd never been fond of it; had to keep it restricted. They're business people. They want me to follow their steps. They made me accept it, like I've said, because they make payment for my education in school, thus, needed to have an experience in "financing" myself. Thinking about this only make me wonder about how Eryx's parents were much better than mine regardless of having no knowledge in their relationship. 

"I will try my best, Sir"

I left.

-------------------------

The next day was greatly disastrous. New reporters in school, students; both juniors and seniors were holding out their phone ready enough to displease Eryx. Guess this was about yesterday's situation. I couldn't stand the watch anymore. I pulled him out of the large group to a location no one know of. Not even the teachers, but the principal but, luckily, the principal, at this time and age, is absent. Good timing, I must say. We were exhausted not long after. 

He panted, "You..."
