Chapter 82: Mission (1/2)
”Hey, you're finally here. Welcome to my group, Lion Group. By the way, we decided that Kai will be the leader.” Michelle greeted her. ”Please come in and sit.”
Ayaka was frozen. She wanted to turn back and run, but her body betrayed her. Even though she didn't want to, her body walked forward and sat on the sofa like a robot. She kept glancing at Kai with a troubled expression.
”Good.” Michelle nodded her head.
”Since when am I the leader?” Kai asked.
”Since I registered you.” She smirked.
”Ah. Well, there are no outsiders anyway, but if any of you want the leadership, just say it and I'll give it to you.” Kai said.
”That's not possible.” Michelle and Tasha firmly said at the same time.
Meanwhile, Ayaka was so tense that she looked like a robot. On her right, she could see an S-rank magician with two elements, lightning and space. On her left, there was Michelle, another S-rank darkness magician. And last but not least, the most mysterious one, the one that was sitting in front of her sipping his tea, Kai Carter, a sound magician. She knew he had yet to show all of his power.
The pressure came into her as she was wondering if she could be of any use to him. She looked at Kai, not knowing what to say.
Michelle simply ignored her and said. ”Well, there are a few things you need to know about the group itself. First of all, we need to do at least one mission per month. Of course, if a mission requires more than a month, it will be counted as a second mission. That's why I often take a mission that usually requires a bit more than a month and end the mission on the first day of the next month. That way, I can get a free month.”
”Oi… you're a sly one, aren't you?” Tasha looked at her while narrowing her eyes.
Michelle simply smiled and whispered something to her. Tasha suddenly blinked a few times and opened her mouth in surprise. She swiftly corrected herself. ”Ahem, I mean, she's a clever one.”
Kai rolled his eyes as Michelle used him as the bait.
”All right, moving on. In the mission, we'll get two things: Money and group points. Money aside, group points are used to determine the group's ranking. I will explain the group ranking first. There are almost a thousand groups in this school alone.
”If we manage to get into the top 100, we'll get a bigger room with more luxurious furniture. When we go on a mission, they'll give us a ride to the nearest military base, but the comfort is questionable. Basically, I don't like it. As for the top 100, they have their own helicopters lent by the army. That's why, the first thing we need to do is to get into the top 100,” she explained.
”Indeed. It'll be better to have our personal space and transport.” Kai nodded.
”Which is why I got us a perfect mission. Here it is.
Mission: Wolves Extermination
Description: Twenty B-rank wolves have been spotted in Prince George, Canada. The leader is a giant wolf with five meters in height alone. Proceed with caution.
Rewards: $200,000 and 2000 points.
The rewards were quite big, but considering the mission, getting such a reward was normal. Kai didn't have any problem with this mission as he was confident they could succeed. Tasha also didn't have any objections while Ayaka could only nod her head after looking at the siblings nod their heads.
Michelle also nodded her head and typed something on the computer before a screen projection appeared on the big table. It was a map of Canada.
”The nearest military base is in Edmonton. We can request a vehicle from there to carry us to Prince George, but I think Tasha's teleportation will be faster. It should not be that far and the route should be pretty safe, since our frontlines are in Nunavut, the Northwest Territories, and Yukon.
”And most of the magical beasts have been cleared by the army. Will that be okay with you, Tasha?”
”Fine by me. I should be able to teleport us there. If I can't, I'm sure Kai can do it with a single teleportation.”
”And your true intention would be to kiss him again.” Michelle narrowed her eyes.
”Hehe… this is a privilege.” Tasha grinned while Michelle shook her head.
