Chapter 252: Chapter 252:Mission Impossible [2]

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

Hearing the sound of doors opening and banging shut, I remained in my room, simply staring at the countless pieces of paper on my desk.

There were about thirty minutes left until the assembly started, but some of my fellow royal dormitory students were leaving early to get good students.

It was first-come-first-serve seating, so there was probably a line already formed at the multi-purpose building by now.

Besides getting a good view of all the events, the people at the front were more likely to be chosen as participants for their grade level.

In the assembly, there would be a variety of teamwork events where the first-years, second-years, and third-years would all compete.

To choose the volunteers from each grade level, teachers would simply roam around and choose a random person from the grade-level bleacher to participate.

For winning the competition, your entire grade would receive points, and the participants would also receive an individual prize, such as a front-of-the-line lunch pass for the cafeteria.

At the end of the assembly, all the points would be tallied up, and the grade with the most points would receive... a day off!

While the other years would have to go to school like a normal day, the grade who won would get to stay home and relax.

Needless to say, students were hyped up and wanted to win.

It was so bad that in our second year, when some random student participated and lost the event he was in, he was shunned for a whole week.

Sighing, I leaned back in my chair and shook my head. Sёarch* The NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Usually, I would dismiss the idea of me being chosen to participate as before; I was just some random delinquent.

But now... I had a reputation attached to my name, and my fame would only increase when the other first-years realized I moved into the Royal Dorms.

Also... a certain teacher seemed to be out to get me.

"Class Rep!? Seriously, what is this bullshit?"

I wouldn't lose if I was chosen.

That was the easy answer I decided on.

The assembly would end more than mid-way through due to the emergency alarm pulled by the djinns, so the grade with the most points by then would receive the day off.

So, winning and losing in the events still mattered quite a bit.

Getting up from my chair, I made a quick meal for my cat and poured it into his bowl.

Simply watching the time on my smartwatch count down, I sat down on my bed before beginning to gather some materials.

Manifesting a heavy that was far too big for me, I began cramming the pockets with various materials I would need.

There would still be time for me to stop by my dormitory after the emergency alarm was pulled and the robbery started... but then, the security guards would spot me.

Looking in the mirror, I realized how suspicious I looked with this big hoodie, despite the sun shining bright as ever outside.

I really needed a storage magical artifact... corruption wasn't cutting it anymore.

Adding some touches to make myself look less suspicious, I took one last glance at my dorm before walking to the door.

Putting my ear on the door, I made sure it was completely silent before slowly and silently opening the door.

Exiting my dorm, I walked through the lavish royal hallways, staring at fancy lamps and pieces of artwork as I passed.

Reaching the common room, I sighed in relief as I realized it was silent.

Usually, I wouldn't be scared or nervous about meeting the main cast, but today was different.

Today, they knew I was most likely their enemy, and I knew they were my enemy.

It was like Batman meeting the Joker at some random coffee shop.

The two of them obviously couldn't start fighting and attacking each other in public with so many people around...so what could they do besides just glare at each other?

Slipping through the golden couches, I was about to exit when a familiar voice called out from behind me.

"Ren?"

Before I could respond, rapid footsteps approached me before eventually stopping right behind me.

As I felt my collar being gripped by someone, a sudden soft voice pierced my ears.

"Ren, don't tell me you're using that permanent Royal Dormitory pass I gave you for bad things?"

Shaking my head, I pulled out my student ID, which had been changed to display [Royal Dormitory Resident] instead of [Regular Dormitory Resident.]

Staring at my ID for a moment, Charlotte let go of my collar and opened the door leading outside.

"Well, congratulations, I can't say I didn't expect it after your performance."

Heading outside, Charlotte stopped for a second, blocking my path, and turned around.

With a grin, Charlotte said.

"Don't let it go to your head. You're still a part of my Knight Order, you know."

"I know, I know."

After nodding my head, I left the Royal Dorms, following Charlotte as the two of us headed toward the center of the island.

As we entered the area where the normal dormitories were located, crowds were already forming, and students were everywhere.

Not wanting to push my way through the crowd, I was about to scale the building to my right when Charlotte's voice sounded from in front of me.

"Not planning to leave your boss stranded, are you?"

Smiling, I quickly replied.

"Of course not... Boss!"

"Good."

Walking back towards me, Charlotte pointed at the sky.

"Because we already have a ride waiting for us!"

Following Charlotte's finger, I gazed up at the sky, immediately noticing a helicopter-like transportation device hovering in the air.

"...all of this for a five to ten-minute walk?"

"I can leave you behind if you'd like."

Rapidly shaking my head, I watched in utter joy as a ladder slowly approached us from the air.

Within a minute, the two of us had climbed the ladder and were now sitting side-by-side in the helicopter.
