" Yu, I don't want to get into trouble, " Sendo said hesitantly.
" Yeah, let's just do whatever he says " Aki added while Kita stared quiet observing the situation or didn't know what to do next.
After standing frozen for a moment Yu finally spoke a cold sweat running down his forehead, " What... What do you want from us. "
" I want detailed information on these people also I'll ask you to do something for me in the future," Rick replied as he handed a small note and flash drive to Yu.
" Okay, we.... we'll see what we can do. " Yu said as he got to work on his computer.
Rick sat on the edge of Yu's table as he watched him click buttons with a cold sweat running down his forehead.
' It's just as Ren said, people who live in the shadows are nothing when exposed to the light, these guys folded quickly than I expected. '
After a few minutes of sitting in silence, Yu got up and unplugged the flash drive.
" Here I've added everything you asked for " Yu said, his eyes studying Rick's face as he handed him the flash drive.
" You must be wondering why you lost, the truth is you didn't..... well more like at the start you didn't, I didn't have anything to use against you guys. " Rick explained after he grabbed the drive.
" What are you trying to say? I don't understand. " Yu questioned, his tone a little confused.
Rick pulled his phone out his pocket and clicked on it.
" Well played, but you don't have any data to back it up and our drives will be empty in a few minutes you can't touch us, " It played a recording of Yu talking earlier.
" You son of a.... " Yu snapped but stopped the moment Rick raise his hand gesturing for him to pause.
" Nah huh huuuh, don't blame it on me. If you're going to play the ignorant game learn to stick with it through to the end. " Rick said in serious tone.
" Well, I'll see you guys soon and it was nice working with you. " He said as exited the room while waving his hand.
Later In club everyone stood with a surprised look on their faces.
They made their usual circle and in the middle of it was Tatsuya trying out a role.
" I don't understand anything you're saying, what do you mean you no longer need me... You can't do this to me. " He said in low and soft tone.
" Do you know how much a sacrificed! " He yelled mock angrily.
" Cut! " Takakura interrupted, as he approached him, " Tatsuya that was good, and just after a tries you memorized everyline with just a few tweaks you have a role. "
" Good job, I always knew you had it in you. " A tall student patted Tatsuya's shoulder.
" You have great potential, " Takakura said, with his eyes lit up.
" Thank you, I'll work hard and try not waste it, " Tatsuya replied as he went to sit down.
He sat and looked down, his eyes serious, as he read his quest progress.
" Quest progress 15% "
With a tight smile he thought, ' I guess have a lot potential doesn't actually mean anything my progress didn't go up much. '
His thought was disturbed as he felt something cold touching his cheek.
" That's cold. " He turned to look it was Aina handing him a canned drink.
" You showed a lot of improvement, See what told you worked didn't it. " Aina said, as she sat beside him.
" Yeah the technique you taught me worked wonders. " Tatsuya say as he opened his can took a sip.
' Taking in deep breaths through you nose and exhaling through the mouth, it was surprisingly effective. ' he analyzed.
" Well it always help me relax whenever I got nervous. " She said as they watched the others practice.
" This is not a good drink. " Tatsuya complied.
" Well it is a combination of many drinks and some drinks are bitter, " She argued, a playful smile on her face.
" Makes sense I guess. " He said as he took another sip.
Classes continued smoothly as usual and later it was time for lunch.
Rin was walking quickly through the hallway, carrying a big blue lunch box in her hands. She opened the door to class A as she approached where Ren sits.
' He's not here, how did he get out the classroom so fast? Should I wait for him? ' She thought, looking at the empty sit.
She stood there without saying anything for while watching an empty seat.
Meanwhile Ren was laying down on the school's rooftop reading his small book as usual.
The wind breezed through his hair, the sun was moderately covered by clouds, which area made cool and soothing.
After a few minutes of reading Ren got up, straighten his uniform and he put his book in the pocket of the black jacket he was wearing.
' That should be enough for now, time to attend to my duties. ' he thought as opened the door and went down the stairs.
Horikita sat in her throne like chair, stacks of documents pilled up all around her table.
She was passing through them at a rapid pace using her thumb, it was like she was looking for something.
Ilya stood next to her with a smile she didn't know she had, she was watching attentively as if it was something world changing.
The door opened and immediately Ilya's smile faltered, Ren entered.
As he approached Ilya's eyebrow was twitching, ' No, don't say anything to this stupid mean face. You promised the president that you'd be a good girl, so I'll try to behave. ' she battled with herself.
" A fine afternoon isn't it president?.... I remember you saying you have work for me. " Ren asked in his usual calm tone.
" It is a nice afternoon we are having, and yes I need you do something for me. " Horikita said, without looking up she continued flipping through the documents.
Ilya was glaring daggers into Ren, ' why is he so charmy with the president? it's almost like they're flirting, I wish he'd just die. ' she thought twisting the conversation between two into something it wasn't in her head.
" I need you go to the Library and Literature club here a list of things I need you check and do. " She said grabbing a paper off the table and handing it to him.
Ren looked at it and absorbed the data immediately, " is this all? " He asked and she slightly nodded.
' it's just as I expected plus a side quest, does she not like the literature club. ' he asked himself before leaving the room.
And Ilya immediately let out a huge breath as if she had been holding it in, " finally he left, I can't stand him. "
" Ilya, you said that out loud. " Horikita stated while looking at document.
She immediately cover her mouth, " oops " then she faced her head towards the Horikita, " I didn't mean to president, it's just that I really don't like him and I've tried to hide it like you said. "
" Then you are not doing a good job of hiding it because your face pretty much spells everything out without you having to say. " Horikita said in a amused tone.
Her jaw dropped upon the realization" president, am I that easy to read? "
" You'd be surprised. "
While that conversation continued, lunch break was coming to end students were going to their classrooms.
Ren was walking in the hallway as he noticed a few girls surrounding a girl they pinned her to the wall.
" What's this? You are writing a story, what a nerd. " The brown haired girl who stood in the center said
The girl didn't reply she only watched, the light reflecting in the lenses of her glasses.
" Those glasses don't look good on you at all, stop trying. "
She stayed quiet again.
" Say something, is this what you do to pick up guys pretending to be the innocent type. " Another short white haired girl said her voice a bit irritated.
" I hate your type, always being innocent and fragile. " The brown haired girl added while the other laughed.
' bullying is a Canon event for shy people, there is no point in helping I'd only interfere because it helps them level up. ' he thought as walking.
As he was about to walk pass them he noticed a familiar face and immediately stopped walking.
Then he called out to her calmly.
" Rin, I've looking everywhere for you. Come let's go. " He commanded as he turned back and she held the papers in her close to her chest as she started to follow.
" Hey, who the hell do you think you are? " The brown haired girl snapped, " We weren't done talking to h.. " she stopped subconsciously take a few steps back.
Her sentence was cut off by Ren only turning his head back.
His single, practically glowing red eye paralyzed and shut her up.
