4 The Meeting With The Headmaster! (2/2)
”What are you going to do Ilora? Stay or leave?” Erica asks Ilora. ”I will stay for now but if anyone tries anything absurd I will leave immediately.” Ilora replies. Her eyes intensely give an angry glare towards the headmaster. I guess by absurd she means the headmaster.
”If all is settled than we can talk about this after Ms. Kaori arrives in this room.” The headmaster says to us. Ilora walks into the room. ”Hey great speech there big bro Caster.” I heard that whisper by Jacob to Mr. Daniel. Jacob smiles. ”My pleasure.” He whispers.
”Let me get straight to the point. Now this might seem like a mercenary mission to you people but if you get this done mission done then I promise you all. I will personally put out a request to the council to give you all the rights to be a knight. Is that clear?” The headmaster questions us. ”YES SIR!” Everyone except Ilora screams out. It's a surprise that Ilora didn't say anything. I thought she would have rampaged when the headmaster spoke about this mission being mercenary-like.
”What's the mission though, headmaster?” Ashley asks the headmaster. ”Well, you see...The mission is comes directly from the council themselves.” The headmaster replies. ”WHAT?!” Everyone looks shocked and begin to sweat. Even Ilora seems to be a little shocked by the headmaster's statement. ”Why is everyone so shocked? The council are the one's who gives us mission, right?” I ask. ”Yes, you are correct boy but this mission doesn't come from a mission board...It comes from the 7 most powerful people of the council or also whom we call the heads of the council.” Mr. Daniel explains to me. I guess everyone would be shocked if the most powerful mages of the world gave them this contract.
”Now the mission.” The headmaster says as he holds a card in front of our eyes. ”The council wants us Rodeo academy to send out capable teachers to take down a group of escaped prisoners. As of right now, it's said that there are 5 escaped criminals and they all are hiding in an abandoned factory at Modrid. Unfortunately, the council has a very important matter to attend to themselves so they left this mission to us as our academy is quite well trusted between the world and also I have few friends there. Also, the criminals, they all are quite powerful.” The headmaster keeps the card down. ”So, I guess you understand the mission. Bring the criminals back to the custody.” The headmaster explains.
The headmaster puts 5 pictures in front of us. All of the people in the picture seem to be in a jail costume. The picture at the most left is of a man with weird tattoos on his face and long hair. The picture next to it is of a beautiful woman, most probably in her late 20's. She has blue eyes and long chocolate coloured hair. Then there is a guy at the left. He is completely bald but quite huge and buffy. Not to mention, he also has a very angry expression. Then to next to him is a girl...She almost looks like a doll with short black hair and red eyes. But her face...It's like she's a doll....And the guy in the middle. His quite pale and his smiling in that picture. Not to mention, his eyes are really intimidating and his got long nails. Wonder why his grown his nails that big...”These are your targets.” The headmaster says to us.
”1st years don't get such a mission but you all have to take down the criminals or die or you could just runaway from your dreams. So what will you chose? Run, fight and die or do you plan on surviving and taking down the criminals?” Mr. Daniel smiles and asks us.
Jacob wanted to say something but I interrupt him. ”I will fight and I will survive because...I want to be the greatest knight in the world country...No...I want to be the greatest knight in the whole world and if this is just a small step to it.” I say. ”I hope you survive to see another day.”
”Alright then, the leader of the racket is Janis Martin.” The headmaster points at the woman with long chocolate coloured hair. ”She is the brain of this whole escape operation and quite an intelligent person but...The hardest time you will have fighting someone isn't her...It's Groando De Guru.” The headmaster points at the big guy. ”This man...He is quite a powerful foe. He was capable of taking down 12 knights and 1 great knight.” The headmaster says. ”12 knights and a great knight? So what kind of rank is that?” Jacob asks. ”Basically, he took down a B-rank knight and an A-rank knight.” Ilora says. ”That's...Crazy...” Ashley says in a slow tone. ”So you know already what type of threats your dealing with.” The headmaster says to us. ”Yes.” We all say.
”Does anyone have any questions regarding this mission?” I look towards everyone. Everyone seems determined and...Ilora seems to be giving her angry 'I don't care' type of expression. ”No sir!” I say. ”We are ready for the mission.” I continue. ”Good, then go and get them everyone!” The headmaster says to us.
