218 Avalons Job (1/2)

”Fine... Let's go with that.”

Lacus felt conflicted at first when she thought of handing this over to his junior apprentice's secretary.

But since he already left instructions, she can only agree and let the two people know.

After she informed the two, they decided to give their contacts so they can personally speak with Avalon.

Anyway, the task of the lawyer helping them wasn't that complicated.

The most difficult part of the job was to find someone who had a bit of influence in the Congress. But since he was selected by Lacus and even accepted it immediately after knowing the specificities of the job, he must be capable.

As for the Mage Doctor, Wallace was planning to provide half of the Secret Art: Flowing Spirit first to confirm whether the person was truly capable of the job.

Aside from these two, Avalon was also contacted by several people and even the other A.I.

It almost feels like they were waiting for Wallace to go into seclusion before thinking of contacting him.

What a bad timing...

But of course, Avalon didn't complain and answered all of them.

[ When do you plan to start building our agreed space fleet? ]

[ Due to various circumstances, the production was planned to start after we acquire a plot of land. This land will be used as the base of operations. We are currently dealing with the plan to purchase. Do you want to provide assistance to hasten the arrangement? ]

[ No. ]

[ I understand. Then, please wait until we purchased a land. ]

Avalon then ended its conversation with Veda.

Another call came in.

”Hello? I need to speak with Wallace. Please tell him that the temporary Headmaster of Leonhearts, was looking for him...”

”He is unable to speak with you now but I can inform him once he can...”

After acknowledging this, Miss Chamber explained that she was requesting Wallace's presence so he can announce his support for her at the incoming meeting of the faculties and student councils.

Apparently, a representative of the Ministry of Magic Education will arrive tomorrow in consideration of finding the suitable Headmaster of the Academy.

The representative declared that he would like to consider the faculty and the student body's opinion on this subject since if the representative couldn't find the best candidate here, the ministry would be forced to send one of their internal members to be assigned in this Academy.

On the night of the second day of Wallace's seclusion, Yumi came knocking outside of Wallace's villa.

***

Today, Yumi found a clue about her cousin's whereabouts.

”Northern Continent, huh...”

She muttered while planning to follow the lead they got but unfortunately, she can't bring the officers working at the NMTI. They could only entrust the job to a small number of Lucent Force.

The Lucent Force was small in number in the first place.

Since only the elite of the elites can pass its training and examinations. Although she trusted their capability, she can't just stay here and do nothing.

She can call two or three of her friends to accompany her in the location but after remembering that there was someone with a mysterious ability and identity that she can ask, she quickly made up her mind as she went to his property even without appoint.

'Anyway, he's not attending classes. He should be at home, playing that game he made...'

Yumi was also almost addicted to this game but she learned how to control herself. She recognized the revolutionary idea of the game but in the end, she decided not to play it after learning that she can't shapeshift inside.

'Hmph! All mana-related skills and techniques were working inside but Body's Secret Arts are not...'

While she was complaining in her mind. She already reached the villa owned by Wallace. The latter didn't inform her of his address but she was aware of this, simply because she can just quickly make a phone call to someone working at their intelligence department.

”Ahh... This place is really extravagant, huh.”

The aura emanating around the villa wasn't so simple. A while ago, she can feel that even though she was 500 meters away  from the place, someone was already monitoring her.

She didn't mind this because there was no ill intention included and was only observing her.

'Well, it doesn't surprise me... His house was somehow hot to the eyes of burglars and criminals.'

The lady tried looking for a doorbell or any way to contact the person inside.

As she didn't notice anything like that, she decided to just call Wallace on his phone. Enough for the surprise... Telling that she was already outside waiting was enough for that.

But before she can make a call, a voice was suddenly heard from the small speaker outside. She thought that it was Wallace at first but she quickly recognized the difference.
