"You won against Arnold?" Dexter asked with astonishment in his voice.
Zenil nodded in agreement.
Currently, he was walking through the corridors of the Aurelian Academy with Dexter and Audrey leading him to his destination. He had met up with them at the main gate of the academy.
"And you thought he was a small fry." Audrey sarcastically said, teasing Dexter.
Dexter ignored her and looked in the opposite direction.
'Nice to have extroverted girls as friends, isn't it?'
"So, who am I gonna meet?" Zenil asked/
"The leader," Audrey said.
After that, there was silence for the next few seconds, until we reached a room labeled, "Principal's Office".
"Here we are!"
"I am going to meet the Principal?"
"See for yourself," Dexter said as he opened the door and walked in.
***
On the other side of the door, it wasn't at all like what Zenil had previously thought.
Upon entering the room, he was met by a beautiful girl wearing the same uniform as Audrey. The girl had red hair, a beautiful face, and a breathtaking figure. Currently, the girl was sitting on the large table situated at the other end of the, and one of her legs was kept over another.
"You guys are here." The girl said after keeping the book in her hand on the table.
"Good Morning." Dexter and Audrey simultaneously greeted the girl.
"Morning." The girl nodded.
"You- You are the girl who I saw in the playground!" Zenil finally said after knitting his eyebrows for a while.
"Indeed, I do remember you seeing me." The girl said as she stood up.
"I am Cyrille Palomer , you must be Zenil." The girl said as she walked towards me and brought her hand forward for a handshake. "My family owns this school."
"Nice to meet you," Zenil said as he shook hands with the girl.
"Same here." The girl said with a slight smile on her face.
After the greetings were done, both of them sat down on the sofa chairs, facing each other. Audrey and Dexter stood behind Cyrille.
"So why was I called?" Zenil asked.
"As you already know, the organization has declared a bounty on you head. You even fought Amroh's men today. Soon the challenges you face will increase. I can stop this. I can get rid of the bounty on you head."
"How?" Zenil's eyes once again widened.
"Join us. Become our representative."
Zenil looked at the girl with a perplexed expression.
"It's simple. There are seven high-ranking schools in the organization. Each group has a strong leader who is called their "Representative". A powerful individual, who represents the school he or she belongs to. If you become the Representative of the second-ranked school in the organization, then no one would target you."
"Are you willing to join us?"
"You want me to become the leader of your school? Why are you giving someone like me this chance? Why me? I know for a fact, no lunch is free." Zenil asked.
"Not the leader, the representative, a strong face for our school. I will be the one moving the chess pieces, and you will be my queen, the strongest piece on the board. Now, as to why I am giving you this opportunity, it all comes down to two things. First of all, the previous representative left us, to study for college entrance exams, and second, I know just how strong you are. Trust me, no representative could ever send a person flying with a single punch."
Zenil gulped remembering just how powerful he was yesterday. If only he could get that power back, if only he could meet Ryong once again.
"And, yes, no lunch is free. You will have to do something for me, no, for us. For both of us. You will have to destroy the organization."
Zenil looked at the girl with utter disbelief in his eyes, "What do you mean?"
"I want to use your strength, to destroy this organization for once and for all. This organization has only given me headaches, and pain."
"You want him to destroy the org?" Suddenly Dexter asked with shock in his voice. "I know he is strong, but, destroying the org?"
"He defeated that lanky lackey Amroh had with him in every meeting, didn't he?"
Dexter was left dazed, unable to speak.
"Trust me, he is the only one who could defeat "The Monster of Gagier"." Cyrille said while looking into Zenil's brown eyes.
"What did you mean by saying, I have to do this for both of us?" Zenil asked.
"Well, you see, I know about Lana. The waitress from the cafe, who treated you like her younger brother."

A youth with dark blonde hair, blue eyes, and a white skin tone sat in the front row of a classroom, right beside the windows. Sunlight pouring on his blonde hair made him look even more desirable.
Currently, the youth was clad in a yellow colored blazer just like the other students in his class. At this point in time, he was scrolling through his phone.
Suddenly, the door to his class slid open, and a burly boy with black buzz-cut hair entered the classroom.
"Good morning, Grover. Got the target?" The blonde boy asked nonchalantly.
"He escaped," Grover said dejectedly with his eyes looking at the ground beneath him. He was shamed.
"From you and Arnold?" The blonde boy asked after keeping his phone down.
"He somehow knocked out Arnold, and one other dude we went with."
"He escaped from you, Arnold, Gerard, and the third guy? Isn't that fucking amazing!" The blonde boy laughed.
"Quite disappointed." The blonde boy said seriously while looking at Grover.
"Give me one more chance. It's about my pride now. I'll prove my worth to you Amroh." Grover said with both of his hands joined together.
"Sure. Don't fuck up this time." Amroh, the Representative of Autumn Grove High said.

"I know the perpetrator behind Lana's sexual assault, and the mental torture with made her kill herself," Cyrille said in a serious tone.
When these words entered Zenil's ears, a quiet rage took over his face. His eyes looked furious, yet his facial expression was calm.
"Who?" Zenil asked. His voice weighed a lot, and everyone in the room could feel it. A slight dark glow appeared in his eyes, though it was not spotted by anyone in the room, it was still present.
"Mark Beasly, the leader of Obsidian High's fourth year.. Hier to the Beasly family, and further backed by Obsidian's Representative, the current head of the Organization."
Obsidian High was the highest ranked school in the Gagier Brigade, and the representative of this school was also the head of the entire organization.
"So, what do you plan to do? You don't have to care about the Beasly family, I'll take care of them, you only need to focus on-" Cyrille said but was interrupted by Zenil.
"I'll join."
"Great!" Cyrille said with a smile on her face.

A lone figure stood in front of a tombstone with the name [Lana Rosy] on it. The person standing in front of the tombstone had an obese body, and blue hair which were so dark that they appeared to be black.
Cool breeze clashed against Zenil's body, making his hair dance. The grayish clouds in the sky were ready to start pouring any second.
"I have decided." He murmured with sadness in his eyes.
"I will…"
***
"He is about to breakthrough." A bearded man with black hair tied into a short pony tail murmured.
The man had tall height and a wide structure. He was currently standing on top of a skyscraper, looking at the wet city in front of him. The rain had wet him as well. But, he liked this sensation. All the heat had died down, cool bursts of wind were hitting his face, along with cold droplets of water.
"You are taking another disciple?" A figure standing behind Ryong said. His voice had a very calming effect.
Ryong looked behind and looked at the man with a smirk on his face.
