Suddenly, he felt Mana fluctuations inside the ring on his finger. He took out a hexagonal crystal from it. This ring was similar to the one the first envoy offered Samuel, an interspatial ring.

He poured his Mana into the crystal, and a voice sounded, “Young master, the target has taken a mission from the mission hall. It’s a silver-ranked mission. I suspect he is going to leave the academy in a while.”

Hearing this, killing intent flashed in the golden-robed youth’s eyes. “Good. Wait until he is a safe distance from the academy before striking, and make sure he dies, or you will.” 

“Yes, young master.” The voice sounded from the other side.

Suddenly something crossed his mind, and the youth asked, “Where’s Flavia? Has she already gone out on the mission?”

“Yes, young master. Mistress has already gone out.” The voice replied from the crystal.

“Okay, report to me after killing him.” The golden-robed youth said and stored the crystal in his ring.

This youth was Dalton. Two days ago, he had received news that Bartan, his loyal servant, had been killed by Max.

He was enraged. He was waiting for Max’s death news but instead heard the news of his loyal subordinate.

After that, he contacted the families subordinate to the Dalton family, who had people in the Cloud academy, and ordered them to keep an eye on Max and kill him once he left the academy.

“After he dies, you won’t have anyone but me. I’m sure you’ll not refuse to become my woman after I help you heal your scar. Haha.” Dalton laughed, then took off his clothes and started to ‘play’ with the women beside him._.

Initially, he didn’t have any hopes of making Flavia his woman willingly and was ready to use some underhanded means.

However, after knowing that her face was disfigured during the outing, he knew that the chance to make her willingly agree to be his woman had come.

After all, to heal that kind of scar, she needed to pay an exorbitant price which she couldn’t afford unless she asked her family for help. But he knew that her family wouldn’t be willing to help her for some reason.

So, if he helped her when no one was, there was a high chance of her agreeing when he proposed to her. But before that, he wanted to finish Max off, who she liked.

…

After leaving the mission hall, Max went toward the female dorms to meet Flavia. 

Although there were chances that she might already have left for the mission, he was still hopeful to meet her since, after taking up missions, disciples needed to make adequate preparations for the mission.

Unfortunately for him, he didn’t find Flavia in her dorm room.

“Hello, may I know if you are miss Flavia’s friend?’ 

Just as he was going to leave, a voice sounded from the corridor, which stopped him in his tracks.

He turned to look at the source of the voice and found a simple and calm-looking girl walking toward him.

“Yes, I am. Do you know where she is?” Asked Max with a small smile.

The girl was dazed after seeing him smile and her cheeks turned slightly rosy.

She nodded. “Miss Flavia has already gone out to complete her mission. However, she told me to give you a message in case you came to meet her.”

“Oh? She knew I would visit her?” Max was a little taken aback. However, if she knew, why wouldn’t she wait for him?

The girl looked at him and sighed before shaking her head. “No, she didn’t know it. However, she has only one friend in the academy, you, who might still visit her after she gained that scar.”

Max didn’t know if he should feel happy or sad about this. Moreover, he could feel that this girl was somehow disappointed with him from how she said this and her expression.

He looked at her curiously and asked, “Aren’t you her friend too?”

“No.” The girl shook her head and sighed. “I’m just someone who has received her grace and is indebted to her. However, now that she is in a situation where she needs some morale support, I can’t do anything for her.”

“So, how do you know her, and what is the message she told you to give me?” Max asked, stopping her from speaking any further.

“Because Miss Flavia doesn’t know how to cook. So, I occasionally came to cook for her to repay the kindness she showed to me. There was a time when she unintentionally mentioned you.”

“As for the message, she asked me to tell you that she’ll meet you after returning from the mission.” explained the girl.

“Okay, thank you.” Max nodded and was about to walk away when the girl suddenly stopped him.

“Mm? Is there anything else?” Max asked.

“I have a request.” The girl said, and her face was tinged with pity and sadness.

“What is it?”

The girl took a deep breath and said, “After Miss Flavia returned from the outing, she became unusually quiet. Although she was always like that and rarely talked, this time was different. I got the feeling that she was suffering. Maybe because of the scar, or maybe it’s because of some other reason.”

“I’m telling you this since you are her only friend, and you seem to have a special place in her heart. Therefore, I request you to do something about it.” The girl said in a pleading tone. 

After hearing this, Max also sighed and was sympathetic toward her.

‘No matter how aloof and indifferent she acts, in the end, she is still a girl who, like the rest of the females, cherishes her beauty. So that scar must be the reason why she is suddenly depressed like that.’ Max thought.

“Okay. I’ll take care of her. You don’t worry.” Max nodded and left towards Leticia’s dorm room.

Although he couldn’t meet Flavia, he wanted to meet Leticia and others before going on the mission. He was sure that they hadn’t left yet.

Since he was already near the female dorms, he reached Leticia’s room a short while later and knocked on the door.

Creak~

Shua!

Before he could even step back after knocking, the door opened with a bang, and a slender figure leaped into him and hugged him tightly.

“It seems you have been waiting for me.” Max chuckled and carried her inside. After all, it was still day, and he didn’t want anyone to see them get intimate in the hallway.

“Oh, you guys are also here?” Max exclaimed, a little surprised.

There were Belen and Rima in the room too.

“Yeah. It was difficult to wait alone, so we gathered here.” Rima smiled sweetly at him before looking at Leticia with envy, who he was carrying in a princess carry.

“That’s good.” Max nodded. This way, he wouldn’t have to go around meeting them one by one.

He then put Leticia down, and they started to talk.

Apart from Rima, who he had ‘visited’ the night before yesterday, others complained that he didn’t come to meet them. This was especially true for Leticia.

It was only after he promised to meet them after returning from the mission that they stopped complaining.

“Oh, yes. Max, what rank is your mission?” Belen asked.

Hearing this, he took out the mission scroll. After reading its contents, he said, “It’s a middle-tier silver ranked mission.”

“What? It’s a high-tier mission?” Everyone exclaimed with surprised expressions.

The missions of the academy were divided into bronze, silver, gold, and black gold rank, which were further divided into the lower, middle, and high tiers according to the difficulty level.

Usually, low-tier Bronze-ranked missions needed at least one one-star mage, low-tier silver-ranked missions needed a mage to be above the early-stage two-star realm, while low-tier gold-ranked missions required a three-star mage.

If the tier was middle, it needed multiple disciples at the late stage or one disciple at the peak of the corresponding realm.

“Is it a group mission or solo?” Rima asked worriedly.

“Solo.” Max smiled bitterly.

Hearing this, Belen and others’ expressions turned grim.

Although, in theory, a middle-tier silver-ranked mission could be done by a disciple at the peak two-star realm, the reality was often different.

“It seems you are being targeted.” After thinking for a while, Belen said. 

Rima and Leticia also nodded. After all, the academy wouldn’t send disciples on suicide missions.

Bang!

“No. We should go and ask them to change this mission to a different one.” Leticia stomped her foot and stood up, enraged.

“If he really is being targeted, there won’t be any benefit of going there since they will give the excuse that it is within his capabilities.” Belen shook her head.

“Why are you being so pessimistic? Maybe the Elder handing out the mission made a mistake. We should go and ask them about it.” Rima retorted.
