90 Tour (1/2)

---

'I definitely had to check those zones out once I have the chance.'

Raven thought silently, back in his previous life, he didn't have the chance to visit them since he was too weak to be even qualified, going there is just a certain death for him. Now however, he would have more time to prepare and who knows what he would encounter there?

”Well, I don't have have any say about the situation, since technically I'm not even a part of the faculty and I'm just using it for a disguise.” Old Lee could only sigh helplessly, ”This is why I want to remind you people to be extremely careful. This place is more hectic compared to the Outer Court. Sieze every chance to get stronger so that you'll be able to protect yourselves.”

Old Lee grabbed this chance to remind the kids about the situation that they are in. What these kids will face here are more dangerous compared to what they encountered before. The kids bore his warning on their minds, there's no harm on being careful anyway.

”E-excuse me…”

The group's thought was interrupted because of an abrupt call. They all looked behind to see someone nervously rubbing her palms while cautiously looking at them. Old Lee flashed a friendly smile and asked:

”Is there something we could help you?”

”I-I…” The girl nervously stuttered, the group was a bit confused as to why she appeared to he extremely nervous. They saw her heaved a deep breaths while clutching her hands, after that she seemed to have calmed down and continued speaking: ”I was sent by the Director. He said that there was something that he had to discuss with Instructor Lee and gave the task to give Young Fairies and Young Masters a tour through the facilities of the Inner Institute Branch.”

”Oh, is that so?” Old Lee nodded and asked once more, ”May I know your name?”

”My name is Alice Endrun, Instructor Lee.”

”Your name sounds a bit familiar…” Old Lee murmured, he tried recalling his memories but he failed to recall informations about her. ”Oh well, doesn't matter. I'll leave them into your care then…”

”I'll do my best to give them a pleasant experience.” Alice bowed towards them after saying this.

'A pleasant experience? What's with those words?' Raven's eyes narrowed as he gazed at Alice. He had this weird feeling that she's not acting like she's supposed to.

While he was in deep thought, Old Lee bid farewell to them and walked towards the main building once more. Now there's only an awkward silence between Alice and the team

”G-greetings Young Fairies and Young Masters, I am Alice. On behalf of the Institute, I would like to congratulate and welcome you to the Genius Class. My deepest apologies for not preparing a banquet for you arrival since your colleagues aren't present yet. Nevertheless, there shall be a late gathering once they return.”

Raven and the crew was flabbergasted by her words. They wanted to say something in return but Alice cut them off and continued speaking.

”Meanwhile, please allow this one to give you a brief tour of the Institute's facilities. Shall we go ahead?”

”Alright woman…” Ellen couldn't take it anymore and sharply replied, ”Stop with these overly humble attitude. It doesn't suit you.”

Alice instantly shivered in horror when she saw the fierce expression on her face, she wanted to apologize but she then heard Anne say this: ”Don't take her words to the heart, she just tends to speak her mind freely. What she means is that, you don't have to be overly cautious on how you treat us. It's not like were gonna eat you or something. And it just makes us uncomfortable.”

”I'm t-terribly sorry if I-”
