Second day trying to save the series...
...
*Bam!*
Nathan Sigel slamd his hand on his desk.
He looked at the report that he just received with an ugly expression. Four more students had left the club just now, increasing the number of students that left to twenty-five!
Moreover, the morale of the club was at an all-ti low. He had heard that more than one club mber was hesitating about leaving the club, so he could expect more mbers to leave in the next few days.
And the cause of it was the rumors that started to spread in Academy City from two days ago.
"Dammit! Who was the bastard who did this!?"
Nathan wanted nothing more than skin him alive.
Taking a deep breath, Nathan cald down and put on a bitter smile.
He could not believe that the situation had worsened to this extent.
The problem was that he could not deny the rumors. It was a fact that he had been defeated by Princess Eres, and many people saw it. Moreover, the princess left the club after that.
Although it was a lie that the princess said that he was unworthy of being the leader of the club, most people did not know it. Hence, when they heard that he was defeated, they could not help but think in that direction.
The rumor had mixed lies and truths perfectly, making it very difficult to deny.
At this rate, his club would stop being one of the strongest clubs in the city shortly.
In fact, Nathan had already noticed so clubs eyeing Wings of Liberty greedily. They were just waiting for an opportunity to challenge him.
The problem was that if Wings of Liberty was challenged and defeated, then Nathan would be unable to save the club no matter what he does.
For the first ti, Nathan realized that his club was at the edge of the cliff.
With the slightest mistake, the work that he had done for many years would go down the drain.
Nathan did his best to keep his calm. He knew that right now, he could not despair.
The situation could still be salvaged. He just needed a plan.
Soon, his eyes narrowed and he got an idea.
"I guess it's the only option, huh." He spoke to himself.
Quickly, though, he frowned.
"No, it won't work. The princess and I parted on bad terms. She will not agree to help ."
Nathan furrowed his brows deeply. The gears in his mind spun quickly as he thought about how to convince her.
And eventually, a plan had appeared in his mind.
Taking a deep breath, Nathan called to his sub-leader.
"Leader, what is it?"
"Take care of the club. I'll be leaving for a while."
The sub-leader was stunned.
"Leader, I don't think it's a good idea. If you leave now"
"I know, but I must leave for a while if I want to resolve the current situation."
"Is it so? I understand. Where are you going, leader?"
"To Machine Revolutio."
Nathan ignored the stunned look on the sub-leader's face and grabbed his sword. Then, he walked in the direction of the Machine Revolutio tower.
He ignored the looks of surprise in the faces of the mbers of the club when he appeared. Instead, he asked to see the leader of the club and Princess Eres.
Just a few minutes later, a beautiful silver-haired woman ca and led him to an office.
Inside, he saw the blue-haired young man leader of the club seated at a desk and Princess Eres standing beside him.
"Nice to et you, Mr. Nathan. My na is Bloed Norman, leader of Machine Revolutio." The blue-haired young man introduced himself.
Nathan nodded to him and introduced himself too.
"Nathan Sigel, leader of Wings of Liberty."
"I know. What do I owe the pleasure of your visit, Mr. Nathan? I don't think our relationship is good enough for you to visit ."
"You are right." Nathan nodded and looked at Princess Eres. "To be honest, I didn't want to co here. However, I have a reason to. Princess Elwha, I hope you can refute the rumors that are spreading through the city recently."
"Oh? Why should I?" Eres looked at him indifferently. "I don't have any reason to help you. Much less after everything you tried to do to our club."
Nathan was stunned.
'They know!?'
But imdiately, a flash of realization appeared on his face.
"... It was you."
Princess Eres remained indifferent, however, Nathan saw the blue-haired young man smile.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Nathan? I hope that you have proof of your accusations."
Nathan shut up. Hearing Bloed's playful tone, he was filled with rage.
But he cald down imdiately.
Although he was still angry, right now, he was asking for help in the enemy camp. He could not afford to show his anger now.
At the sa ti, his expression turned serious.
He realized that he had underestimated the leader of this club. He thought that the reason that the Princess joined him was that she was infatuated with him, but it seed that this young man was much more than just a handso face.
However, it was good that he realized it early.
It ant he would not underestimate him later.
"I know that you will not help easily, Princess. Thus, I ca ready."
After saying that, Nathan's eyes emitted a sharp glow. His aura surged out, and he looked at Bloed like a hunter looking at his prey.
"I challenge you to a duel, Mr. Bloed. If I win, you will tell the Princess to stop these rumors. And if you win, I will beco your follower as long as we are in Academy City. I swear it upon my honor."
