As Shin and Leonard walked back to the others, the former could not help but ask. "Are you sure about this? It will be much more difficult and more dangerous than our previous missions."

Leonard just shrugged his shoulders. "We already have done similar missions. For me, this is not different from the underground boxing arena that went through."

Shin clicked his tongue when he heard that. "Tsk! That time when you are dubbed as the Crimson Devil."

Leonard gave Shin a sidelong glance before saying. "You are talking as if you are not famous there. It just they can't give you a suitable title because of how unpredictable you fight."

He then paused as if he remembered something and then added. "Oh! Most of them are calling you Demon, though."

"Junior Demon," Shin corrected before diverting back to the main topic. "This is a confidential mission. Don't talk about it to others and just say that we have a special assignment asked by Uncle Nathan. Other than that, don't tell them anything."

Leonard nodded his head as his face suddenly turned serious.

In the meantime, David immediately headed straight to the place where the offices of the elite clubs were located.

He ignored everyone else and went straight to the building that was owned by the Student Council, which was situated at the center of the place alongside the headquarters of the Disciplinary Committee.

He seemed to be walking at a normal pace on the surface, but he was actually traversing tens of meters for the step he took. It did not take that long for him to arrive at the Student Council Building and entered it without being noticed by the students guarding the entrance.

He moved around the place for a couple of moments before finding what he was looking for. It was the conference room that the Student Council used during important meetings.

Clank!

He did not bother to knock on the door and immediately opened it. He entered in a lofty manner, not bothered by the gazes that were directed at him.

One was full of displeasure while some had an interested look. There was also another who had an indifferent expression as he took a seat on one of the chairs surrounding the oval table.

There were only a total of five people sitting around the table, excluding David. The one who sat on the heat seat was an intelligent-looking guy, who wore rectangular glasses. He was also wearing a uniform unique to student council students with a fancy and elegant pin attached to his chest.

His name was Silver Livingstone and he was the student council present of the academy. And from the aura that he was emitting, it was clear that he was no ordinary individual despite his young appearance.

Seated on the next chair beside him was a little girl. At least, that was her current appearance. She was wearing a pair of round glasses with thin frames, giving her an innocent and pure appearance, especially with her bub cut hair.historical

If Shin was here, then he would immediately recognize this 'little girl' since she was the real boss of the Researcher Department. As well as the president of the club under it, which was the Sleeping Dragons.

She was Dayna Reinhart.

A cross her was the president of the Disciplinary Committee. The big sister of Jillian and Molton, which also Shin and the others had met before, Mariel Potter.

She was sitting on her giving David a friendly smile as she greeted him. She seemed to be unbothered by how disrespectful the latter had entered the room. Since she was somewhat familiar with the guy, she knew that this guy was doing it on purpose.

On the seat beside her sat Elijah Knight, who was wearing an indifferent look when David entered. He might be a little friendly with the guy at times, but after their last exchange, he knew that the guy was still having some trust issues.

He had to act normally and treat the guy how he treated most people, especially when he was here in an official business and representing the Wings of Dawn.

And finally, the final member who was with them in the conference room was a girl with an appearance that would not lose to Mariel. She had light blue hair which was quite uncommon even in this country.

Her name was Catherine Jones and the club she represented was the Hand of Midas. Since Shiella was away, it was her responsibility to attend this kind of meeting, especially when she was the vice president of the club.

Inside the game, she was known as Delusive Smile, who was also Shiella's right-hand woman inside the virtual world.

After a long silence, Silver, the student council president, finally opened his mouth. "I see that two clubs did not send their presidents and just let their vice attend instead."

He was talking in a calm manner but there was a clear hint of displeasure from his tone. He was openly questioning the Wings of Dawn and Hand of Midas.

Elijah scoffed and said. "Our club president is currently guarding the main site. What do you expect from us when your people are not doing their job?"

Silver raised his brows and was about to say something when Mariel suddenly 'interpreted'. "What he wants to say is we can't leave the main site unmonitored right now, especially when most of our manpower is focused on this mission."

At the same time, Catherine turned to Silver and bowed, apologizing. "We are sorry, President Silver. But our club president is currently away for a special task assigned by the military. She is even not in the academy at the moment because of the urgency of that situation."

"Oh! I wonder what mission is it that it is more important than the lives of our fellow students," commented Silver in a sarcastic manner.

This time, it was David who opened his mouth. "That is none of your business. Just focus on your job, so that we can call it a day."

Silver directed his gaze at David before leaning toward the table, resting his elbows on it, and interlocking his fingers. "And as for you outsider, you better show some respect. If not for the request of the elders, we are not going to include you in this discussion."

"Hah! Says someone who is acting high and mighty just because he is the student council president," refuted David while giving Silver a provoking look.

Before the situation could escalate further, Dayna suddenly coughed and said. "Let's not fight among each other. We are here to form a special task force that will rescue the abducted students. The time is ticking, so we can't waste our time on these useless arguments."

She paused and turned to Silver and said. "I know that you are quite agitated because most of the elite clubs have been crippled due to that incident, but you must calm yourself down so that your decision-making will not be clouded."

Then she turned to David and continued. "As for you, we know you bring us a quite solid and foolproof plan, but we can't promise you that we will follow it blindly. Our priority is to save the students and not crush that organization."

"The academy elders have already agreed to follow your plan which is why we are here to organize the task force which will focus on rescuing the students while the academy main force will deal with the frontal assault," she added, laying out the purpose of this meeting in one go.

"Hoh!" David could not help but be somewhat impressed with this little girl. Despite her appearance, she carried a bearing that could only be seen from natural leaders.

He did not notice it immediately since she was acting innocent, which somewhat fooled him. But now that he saw this side of her, he must admit that his first impression was wrong.

Everyone paused for a moment, letting themselves adjust their minds before waiting for David to start discussing the plan.

After a few moments, he tossed a circular object on the table, which landed at their center before projecting a virtual map. "In this operation, we will be assigning each club a certain area that they have to cover."

"As the brat has said, this is going to be a rescue mission, so we will be focusing on saving the students rather than destroying the facilities. But that has to wait until we located the exact location of their base," he added.

Those words earned him a sharp glare from Dayna, especially when he addressed her as a brat. She hated it when people make fun of her height and age, but she suppressed the urge to beat David up and continued to listen.

This operation was of utmost importance since it concerned the lives of the students that had been captured. She could beat David later when the meeting was over.
