When Alex and Rachel reached the clubroom, the other members were already there sitting on chairs, near the table. Lyner on the other hand was sitting in the new bed, Alex and Rachel bought. When Lyner saw Alex and Rachel enter the clubroom, he rubbed his eyes and yawned. The aura of a veteran he was exuding last night completely disappeared and what was replaced was his lazy bum self.

Alex couldn't help but think, if this was going to happen to him as well? Is this the result of merc when he's in a peaceful setting?

Unaware of Alex's worries Lyner started scratching his barely shaven facial hair. ”So Sir. Lyner can you please explain to us, what this is?” Oliver showed the poster that was being distributed. Lyner looked at the poster, and yawned.

”Oh that... That's a poster I made this morning.” Lyner shrugged his shoulders and was about to go back to sleep.

”We already know that! What we want to ask, is why did you make this poster?” Rachel tried to stop Lyner from sleeping, by asking the question everyone was thinking.

”Huh? Didn't I write it clearly in the poster? I'm looking for two new members.” Lyner answered in matter of fact manner.

Rachel couldn't help but facepalm, Saya and Niel on the other hand couldn't stop themselves from smiling. Alex didn't bother with the topic, since no matter how many are added, they wouldn't be able to disturb him from completing the mission. As long as they don't disrupt the mission, Alex was alright to whoever joins. Oliver found Lyner's style interesting, and didn't want to ask further, but Rachel's glare felt threatening.

It's not like he was scared... No it's totally not because he was scared, it was simply because it was his duty as the club president.

”No Sir. Lyner we just wanted to ask... Why we needed to add two more members? Isn't our current members enough?” When Lyner heard Oliver's words his eyes opened wide, and his sleepy look disappeared.

”Your sh*tting me right? You guys don't understand why we needed two more members?” Lyner looked at the people in the club. Alex had his usual poker face, Saya was simply enjoying the situation, Niel had his angelic smile on and seem like he would simply allow any new members to join, Oliver had a serious look, and like Alex no one could discern what he was thinking, Rachel was the only one who looked displease at the whole situation.

Lyner sighed at the bunch gathered in the clubroom. ”You guys... Do you think that your current members are enough to handle the ideal you set for this club?”

This time all of them reacted to what Lyner said, all the members suddenly looked confused. 'Ideal?' What was the ideal of this club?

Seeing everyones confusion, Lyner started doubting if it was really alright to be the adviser of this club. On paper the members of this club were the best of the best in this school. The ones with the highest academic scores where in this club, they were also the one with the best physical abilities. Yet it seems like they created this club haphazardly. It was obvious they just went with the flow.
