The sun slowly rose from the horizon, and Ashton City, more specifically, the Lock, basked in the warmth of the sun.
Standing at the entrance of the academy, enjoying the warmth that came from the sun, I glanced towards my right where a beautiful young girl stood.
Currently, Melissa and I were waiting at the northern entrance of the academy. According to Donna's instructions, we would soon meet students coming from one of the four great academies.
Our job was to greet them and bring them around the campus to familiarize themselves with the place. Although I wasn't sure about which academy they were from or who they were, that didn't really matter.
During the past month, I didn't stand idle.
Having learned my lesson from the situation at the Manticore building, after being made aware of the student exchange, I immediately memorized every single profile of the students that were coming to the Lock.
Regardless of the academy, be it big or small characters, I memorized everyone's profiles. Took me a while, but I forced myself to do it.
...I wasn't going to let something similar to the Manticore building situation happen again. From that point on, I learned that I needed to be prepared for everything. Instead of being unaware of what was to come in the future, it was better to proactively seek information beforehand to avoid being caught off-guard and thus lose composure.
On the topic of the dorm situation, for the past month and a half, all I did was observe.
Having learned a lot of lessons with regards to scheming and planning, I knew that haste made waste.
Therefore, I chose to observe them carefully. From their routines, behavioral patterns...everything. I made sure to engrave and memorize every little detail of their lives without missing a beat.
With the aid of Angelica's cat form, I was able to acquire a lot of information..and thanks to her, I could now finally say that they could be eliminated anytime I wished.
With my plans now completed, all that I needed to do was execute them.
But now was still not the right time. After a bit of thought, I had decided to set the pieces in motion after I came back from Immorra.
Since I was going to go there in a week's time, there was no need to overburden myself right now to get rid of them.
...after all, they weren't going anywhere anytime soon. They were merely sitting ducks from my perspective. All I needed to do was pull the trigger and everything would come toppling down.
They were no longer a priority for me.
Either way, those problems aside, I was now presented with another more annoying problem.
Glancing at Melissa who was standing next to me, trying to break the awkward silence that was between us, I asked.
"...so, how's your day going Melissa?"
Hearing my question, without hesitation Melissa responded
"Shit"
"Why's that?"
Looking at me as if I was an idiot, Melissa rhetorically said
"Do you even need to ask why?"
Frowning, I placed my hand on my chin as I pretended to fall into deep thought.
"Mhh, is it perhaps because it's too sunny outside? Understandable, girls like you want to kee-"
"Shut up"
Being told to shut up, I pretended to be offended as I once again reminded her about the fact that I was now her business partner.
"Rude, don't forget that you're now talking to your business partner"
If before I was scared of Melissa because of her influence and sadistic personality, I no longer had a reason to be scared.
There was no way I was going to miss such a good show.
