Jake took his seat and watched the spar unfold before him. From his perspective, it was diocre at best. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in himself and his friends—they were capable of much more. However, he acknowledged that not everyone had been blessed with teachers like theirs.
After seeing the matches and getting bored by them, he turned to Luna. "You spoke of sothing—Faction. What does it an?" Luna nodded and said, "Factions, in a nutshell, are groups of servants of Special Admissions. Most special admissions take people under them and have them do their work. In return, they make sure nothing happens to their faction mbers."
Jake nodded and then asked, "What else?"
"Factions are also a symbol of one's leadership character. Like the saying, 'Good people follow worthy leaders,'" Luna said.
"There are probably Faction wars too," Jake said.
"Yes, although it's not compulsory. Most special admissions use it to decide unofficial rankings among special admissions," Luna replied.
"Hmm, then I should also get so good students to my faction. Sigh, what a hassle," Jake mumbled and used his Akashic eyes to check every student. He did find so good ones but not that good. If they were to be ranked from E to Ex, they would fall at B at best.
"Hmm, there aren't that good number of students, but there are so whom I can make better," Jake mumbled. With his new plundering ability Authority, making soone from good to better is an easy task. Especially if there is a good student who wasn't able to make full use of his talent because of so complications.
Like the guy nad Aren; he has archery talent, but this guy is wearing glasses because his eyesight is weak. "Literally, this world is a combination of technology and magic, and he is wearing glasses," Jake mumbled. Although this world's technology is sowhat better than his previous world's, there are still so underdeveloped sections, and Aren is a pri example of that.
There is no solution for an inborn defect.
"His eyesight problem can be solved if I took it from soone else," Jake mumbled and then asked Luna to write down his na.
Knock, knock.
"Co in," Luna said to the door, and said to Jake, "It's probably refreshnts."
Jake nodded and didn't pay any attention to the door.
"Why is the attendant of Royal Iris bringing refreshnts to my lord?" Jake wasn't paying attention until Luna's voice reached him.
Turning back, Jake saw a busty beauty, but his main focus was on Luna's words. "You are under Special Admissions, Iris?" Jake asked, looking at the blonde-haired girl.
"Royal, you should add it before speaking of any special students," the blonde-haired girl replied rudely. Jake narrowed his eyes, and an imnse mana pressure assaulted the girl.
"You are just an attendant. Speak properly," Jake said, looking down at her.
The girl, now in a kneeling position, gritted her teeth and said, "I-I have co with my lady's ssage."
"Speak," Jake commanded.
The girl nodded and tried to stand up, but the pressure increased, almost making her lie on the floor in a sleeping position. "No one allowed you to stand up," Jake said.
The girl apologized, and then Jake removed the pressure, returning her to a kneeling position. She said, "My lady would like to et you. Fo—Please follow to VIP I room."
"If she wants to et , tell her to co to ," Jake waved his hand and dismissed her.
The girl bowed and left.
After she left, Jake laid comfortably in the big chair and mumbled, "Acting tough is hard."
"Luna, why did you tell to act like that?" Jake asked Luna. The mont the blonde girl spoke rudely to him, Luna telepathically said to act tough.
"You are Royal; you have to maintain such deanor. Besides, are you sure it was your first ti acting like that? You almost even fooled ," Luna shook her head and then asked.
"It was my first ti," Jake replied, while mories of him acting like a chuuni resurfaced.
"Hah, who would have thought I might actually do that one day," Jake chuckled inwardly.
Jake then returned to seeing the Arena, trying to find other potentially good students.
/////////////////////////////////////
"Is that what he said?" a silver-haired girl with blue eyes asked, looking at the kneeling blonde girl who had earlier co to Jake.
"Yes, my lady," the blonde girl replied.
"Oh~~, a feisty one. I always like to make them my slaves. Ah~~~~, so good. First day and I find such a toy," Iris Sylan, the other special admission student, mumbled with a crazed look on her face.
The other students standing in the room gulped upon seeing her like this, with the exception of her caretaker.
"You seem ntally retarded," the caretaker spoke.
Iris looked at her caretaker and said, "It's a pity. You are just a machine." Saying so, she picked up the head of her caretaker and threw it at the wall. Her caretaker's head was now the only intact part, as she had already broken her body.
"What a ss, assigned to such a psycho..." the caretaker's head spoke, only to get lted into liquid.
"Order another caretaker, and make sure it won't judge ," Iris spoke, and one of her attendants ran out. Others cursed her, calling her an opportunist. They too wanted to get out of this crazy psycho's room.
Iris then moved her gaze to the arena, or specifically at Jimmy, who was thrashing his opponent.
"I want him," Iris said, pointing at Jimmy, and her attendant noted his na.
/////////////////////////
"Master... master... wake up."
A black-haired guy with red eyes opened his eyes, hearing his attendant's words.
"What is it, Mio?" Lucien asked. He was another special admission student.
"Master, we ca here to check out students for your faction. How can you sleep like that?" Mio, his attendant, said.
"But it's boring. It's no fun. It's like monkeys fighting," Lucien said, stretching his body.
"Don't make excuses. You're just simply lazy," Mio shook her head and said.
Lucien shrugged and asked, "Did anyone catch your eye?"
"I can only help you so much. There are so," Mio said and passed him the list.
Lucien looked at the list and saw it only consisted of female students. "Why are there only females?"
"Will you recruit males?" Mio asked back.
"No," Lucien smiled and denied.
"Then why should I bother to write their nas?" Mio replied.
Yawn "Well, you know ," Lucien smiled and closed his eyes again.
Mio shook her head and then looked at the arena, writing down another na.
Emily Raymond.
"Hm, Raymond. Is she related to Professor Alina Raymond?" Mio mumbled and then decided to check it later.
/////////////////////////////
"You have noted all of my friends' nas, right?" Jake asked Luna as the matches ended.
"Yes," Luna replied.
"Okay then, call them and others to my mansion," Jake said.
Luna nodded and then started leaving the VIP room.
As Jake was leaving the arena, soone called out to him.
Turning back, Jake saw a silver-haired beauty along with so other students following her.
"You are Iris?" Jake asked, seeing the blonde girl among her followers.
"Yes, it's a pleasure to et you," Iris smiled sweetly and said.
'Hmm, I guess she doesn't hold any grudge,' Jake thought, seeing her smile.
"What do you want?" Jake asked.
"How about we talk sowhere less crowded?" Iris said, looking at their surroundings, which were now full of other students.
Jake nodded, and then both went to a cafe. 'There isn't any cafeteria but a lot of restaurants and cafes,' Jake mumbled, rembering the guide.
Booking a private room, they entered and ordered coffee. "Now state your purpose," Jake said.
"You don't have to be so cold towards ," Iris smiled and said, and then added, "My na is Iris Sylan, from the Dukedom of Sylan. My position is first daughter of the house."
"Jake Dramstar, just a simple guy from the countryside," Jake introduced himself.
'A country bumpkin, this will be easier than I thought,' Iris thought, hearing Jake's introduction.
"I will be straight. Co under ," Iris said rather rudely, as if giving an order.
'Yeah, yeah, whom was I kidding, a general rule of novels: special position equals sh*t personality,' Jake thought, sipping his coffee.
"I don't like serving the weak," Jake replied calmly.
"Weak? ? Hahaha, what a joke!" Iris laughed weirdly and then waved her hand, materializing a contract mid-air.
"If you think I am weak, then you wouldn't have any problem signing this, right?" She said, pointing at the contract.
Jake looked at the contract and saw it was a contract of duel, with the clause that the loser would beco the winner's slave for eternity, and another clause stating that the deal would be hidden from any third party.
"Hmm, why the last clause?" Jake asked.
"Oh? That, you see, I have a reputation to hold," Iris smirked and said.
"You won't regret it, right?" Jake asked.
"Regret ? We will see who might regret," Iris smiled and said.
Jake looked at the contract and summoned Liliac.
"An undead minion?" Iris raised her brows while Jake telepathically told Liliac to make this contract unbreakable.
"Sorry, it's a naughty one, who likes to wander on its own," Jake lied, and Iris mocked him for not even being able to control his summoned creature.
