Robb's remark further dampens the atmosphere. Ella felt irritable for a moment, "This guy can't even digest my achievement." She made up her mind to stay away from him.
Then she sighed and looked at Sallie, "We have no choice other than to act in the interest of our organization." She advised Sallie with her words.
Robb's face became even more distorted and suddenly thought of something. "I can't move against her for a while. But on the other hand'¦" He thought of Number 1 Rank Holder Zack. "I can use this opportunity to eliminate him."
"I suppose our organization might be keen to eliminate that bastard. If any opportunity arises, they won't hesitate to do it" He hatched a vicious plan in his mind.
He thought since their organization didn't mention to collect details about a particular participant. So, he might as well use this opportunity to find out about Zack's whereabouts.
Seeing Robb's remaining silent. Rest of them sighed in relief. At this point of time, Darius commented, "Okay, Guys. There is no need to feel bad about this matter. As far as I heard, it is not only our organization. Even some other forces ordered their members to collect Intel information about Star Tower Participants."
Bradley nodded his head in approval and said, "Who knows we might have a target behind our backs?"
Bradley's words brought a new light to them. As everyone here had good standing in the leaderboard ranking. Unlike other forces, where their members participate in large numbers. But no one was able to make a quiet mark in the Lead Board at the end. On the other hand, here all of them come under Top 10 Ranks.
It alone is a huge feat compared to other forces. So, there is a probability that their life might as well be in danger. So, Finally at one point everyone agrees to investigate and collect details.
Then the discussion ended after everyone's agreement. No one is interested in discussing the topics. So, they plan to do the mission given by their organization. Robb was the one to stand up from his seat first, before leaving the hall he glared at Ella in Unkind eyes.
His behavior was noticed by others. But none of them said anything to him.
After Robb's leaving, Bradley and Austin also left, saying goodbye. Finally Darius, Ella and Sallie remained in their seats. Darius looked at both of them and said, "You guys as well start doing the mission. Otherwise, it's hard to escape from our Head Master's fury." After saying that Darius also left the place.
Finally, Ella and Sallied sighed together. "These guys don't even give us any chance to discuss. " Sallie grunted. Then she slightly turned towards Ella and asked, "Ella, Do you know what it means? Zack will be targeted by everyone since he is the top ranker."
Some time ago, both of them discussed Zack. But who would have thought things would come to this end.
At this time, Ella opened her mouth to reveal her true concern. " That Zack guy doesn't need others to spy on him. I suspect our team members already had an eye on Zack Lockwood."
Sallie squinted her little eyes in curiosity, "Who do you think will do that?"
Listening to Sallie's question, Ella recalls their team member's expression a moment ago. She said, "In the entire discussion, both Bradley and Austin remain indifferent. And Robb is easy to read, His entire thoughts can be seen by looking at his face. The only person I feel is calculative is Darius Case."
Sallie Chucked hearing that, "So, You think Darius might expose Zack's whereabouts to our organization. "
Shaking her head, Ella commented, " I doubt not only him. Even Austin, Bradley and Robb might as well love to see Zack's end."
Sallie nodded her head hearing that. Both of them knew clearly about their organization. They don't leave any hidden danger behind. If there is any chance they might as well kill him.
"Will he ever come to our organization in future?" Sallie mumbled under her breath.
Ella smacked her head, "Well, let's see if he escapes from this city. " She begins to imagine Zack's plight in the future.
After having a few chats both of them left together to their room to cultivate.
'¦.
(From Mc's Perspective)
"Goodness, Why is there so much noise around this little inn?" I said to myself.
It's been ten days since the beginning of the competition. I somehow managed to cook up in this room without going outside too much. But still there are 20 days to go.
"My patience is beginning to decrease day by day. If this continues, I might as well risk myself to go outside for a while." I begin to lament while laying down in bed.
Elder Thornton advised me to stay here until his instructions. He already speculated about undergoing currents. "How am I going to get past those forces successfully? I remember, I had a little bit of experience fighting against those bounty hunters in Red Stone City.
But here we are talking about a whole new level. There is a chance I can see fights between Elite level Power Houses. I held my pillow and punched it in frustration.
Suddenly, at this point of time. Zack's watch buzzes with notification.
"Who might be?" I looked at the notification in doubt.
It's a call from Maria Frazier. I attended the call without thinking further as I saw her name on the screen. As the video call connected, a holographic face of Maria appears.
As the face became clear, I heard a sweet voice. "Zack, How are you? " Maria inquired.
"I'm fine, it's just boring without spending time in the training chamber." I said with a smile.
Then I added, "How have you been these days?" It's been a quite a while since I last met her. She rarely comes to Hansen Campus. So, we missed an opportunity to meet with each other.
Maria smiled and said, "I'm good. I had a breakthrough recently. It's just that you became the Star of Red Stone city overnight. I believe you will face quite a headache when you reach here."
My mouth twitched hearing that, what star? . I suspect some forces might as well have increased their bounty amount on my head. It's already difficult to roam around the city freely. I don't know what will happen once I go back.
Then I changed the topic and said, " It's good that you broke through. I believe you can fight with our seniors now."
Maria let out a chuckle hearing that, "What's the point of fighting with our seniors. Their talent is not enough. We might as well surpass them in a few months. The real competition now exists only in the Academy."
"Academy Uhhh? I couldn't help but think about my admission quota. My Uncle used his merit to buy a D grade quota for me in Saw Scaled Viper Academy. I doubt whether it can be replaced by a better grade quota after my performance in Star Tower.
"Zack?" Maria calls out seeing Zack's dazed expression.
I came back to my senses after hearing her voice. Then I looked at her and said, "Don't worry you will do better once you join the Academy?" She is the next best student in the Hansen campus, second to me. And together with her family resources, she will gradually improve further in future.
So, I believe she won't end up at the bottom once she gets admitted. While my scenario on the other hand is quite strange. I don't know what plans my teacher made for me. Looking at my past events, I believe the future is going to be even more adventurous.
Maria became happy by hearing his words. At least someone is acknowledging her strength openly. The. She asked in curiosity, "Zack, Which Academy? Are you going to choose?"
For a moment, I couldn't remember whether I talked to her about this before. As far as I know, no one had any idea about my D grade quota. I sighed, it's better not to tell her. I can't afford to have any variable arise at this point of time.
I told her about Saw Scale Viper Academy. She might as well choose the same academy to study. So, it's not good. After making up my mind, I told her, "So, far I don't have any idea. For now I plan to increase my strength further."
Maria frowned hearing that but her expression softened in the next movement. I'm glad that she didn't continue to ask about it. Everyone has their own destiny. There is no need to influence her on this matter.
I suddenly wondered about what Mr. Arthur and Ms. Key were doing. Among all the staff, I only had a good interaction with these two. Ms. Key 's fighting session actually came in handy in the Star Tower Challenge.
Hearing that Maria told about Hansen Campus's recent updates to him, including about Mr. Arthur and Ms. Key's work.
Then both of them ended their call a few minutes later.
