Alexander sat in a room containing only five chairs and a table
He was sitting in one of these chairs, while Frederic and old Walter were sitting in front of him
On their side were two intelligence agents, one carrying an audio recording device and the other recording Alexander's statements inside a paper record.
“Then that strange person raised his sword and lowered it...” Alexander raised his hands excitedly, looking at the lamp hanging on the ceiling.
Then he hit the table hard with his hand. “Then it happened, boom baam…”
The agent who was recording Alexander's statements stopped writing and looked up from the notebook. “Should I write the sound effect of the explosion?”
“I think you should because the context is important...” Alexander nodded
“No need…” Old Walter waved his hand
Frederic was sitting with his arms crossed, looking at Alexander intently. “So they said they did all this just to kidnap you.”
" This is correct..."
Frederic and Walter looked at each other for a moment
Alexander, Sella, and Louise were found hiding in a building near where the attack occurred, which destroyed half of the academy.
Therefore, these three were sent directly to investigation
They were interrogated separately and at different times and were asked about details more than once to ensure the accuracy of their statements
In the end, it was concluded that they had the same sayings
The events they told were that two people suddenly appeared
One of them introduced himself as Merlin Creed, while the masked man was nameless
One of the vital information they obtained from these children was the fact that the masked man possessed the ability to bring monsters out of the shadows
The most important information is a sentence said by Merlin Creed
We are here for you
Hearing this was enough for Frederic and Walter to know Bloody Crescent’s intentions from this unprecedented attack
They wanted to kidnap Alexander, taking advantage of the absence of important figures who might get in their way
The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.
Walter closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them to Alexander. "It's no longer safe to keep you here."
"Okay, that's clear..."
Old Walter nodded at Alexander's calm response
The strength of their enemies was stronger than they expected
Protecting Alexander will be difficult. Therefore, they must make Alexander hide in a safe place so that they can eliminate the Bloody Crescent
At the same time, his stay in the academy posed a threat to the lives of other students
What if the Bloody Crescent launched another attack?
Seven third-level warriors were spotted, in addition to this masked man with strange abilities who could control a third-level monster
These powers would have been considered an elite power in any country
Intelligence had to draw up scenarios for all possibilities that might occur
The worst scenario presented by the intelligence was that the Bloody Crescent possessed high-level warriors, some of whom might reach the second level
If someone with this power decided to attack them, the academy would be destroyed again, and it is not guaranteed that the academy would be able to protect the students this time.
What if their enemies used these students to threaten them?
When the intelligence put these scenarios before Emperor George, he issued a direct statement
Get that boy out of the academy right now
There was only one place they could send Alexander….
“Okay, prepare yourself to go to the Ford family...”
“...” Alexander stared at them with wide eyes
“What?...” Walter felt that something was wrong
“You want me to go to the Ford family?”
“They are the only ones who can protect you…” interjected Frederic, who knew that Alexander had problems with the Ford family
“Hmm...” Alexander stroked his chin. “The Ford family or the Bloody Crescent, the choice is difficult...”
"..." Walter and Frederic were helpless by Alexander's stubbornness
Frederic took a deep breath and said seriously. “Alexander, I know this is sensitive to you, but this is for your own good. Don’t you trust me?”
“Shh…” Alexander rubbed a strand of his hair in some embarrassment. "I don't know how to say this, but I don't have confidence in myself. How do you want me to trust you?"
"..." This boy is hopeless
Frederic lowered his head, declaring his surrender
“You don't have the luxury of choice, Alexander...” Walter's tone became harsher when he realized that it would be useless to negotiate with Alexander.
" I do not agree....". Alexander maintained his calm even when he saw the aggression in Walter's tone. “There are many tactics that can be used in this situation.”
Alexander spread his arms and said with clear sarcasm. "I'm here and I was able to think of ten viable plans. It's just that the idiot who proposed the plan to send me to the Ford family didn't want to put in the effort to use his brain."
"..." idiot?
The vein on Walter's forehead bulged when he heard Alexander cursing the person who had come up with this plan
Because Walter himself was the one who made this proposal
Alexander waved his hand. “I suggest that you fire that person. He is not sincere in doing his job...”
“...” Frederic quickly glanced at Walter, whose face turned red
Walter suppressed his anger behind a smile. “And what genius plan did you think of?”
Alexander narrowed his eyes with a cocky expression. “We will announce to everyone that I will go to the Ford family. While everyone’s eyes will be on the Ford family, I will go to hide somewhere else.”
“That sounds good.” Frederic rubbed his chin as he thought about Alexander's plan
“I know...” Alexander did not hide his pride. "I'm a genius..."
In fact, he stole this plan from a politician who existed in his previous world
That politician was accused of corruption cases, so a police force was sent to arrest him
They intercepted the politician's convoy of cars, but they were surprised that the wanted person was not in any of the cars
Later, it turned out that the politician had sent a convoy of cars towards his home, while he moved in another car to the border, where he was able to escape to another country.
This was one of the stories he heard about on the news
He admired the politician's cunning, but this left him with the question of whether this man was using his mind to do anything other than crime
But in the end, he was able to deduce a plan from the news he heard by chance
“And where do you want to be transferred after we spread the news of your going to the Ford family?” Walter looked suspiciously at Alexander
“I will be transferred to another academy.” Alexander raised his finger artfully
“…” Walter and Frederic’s eyes widened
Alexander explained. “Everyone expects that I will be transferred to a safe place and under heavy guard. No one will know that I have been transferred to a regular academy instead.”
"There's still a risk involved." Walter still rejects this idea
“I think it's a perfect idea.” Alexander insisted on his plan
He wouldn't go to the Ford family or to a place where he would be watched all the time
He still had a lot of potions to prepare and rituals to perform to increase his strength
He will not be able to do all of this because he will be being watched all the time
So he must fight now until he is moved to a place where he can have complete freedom to do what he wants
There are several options, but the best one is to transfer him to another academy. Under the pretext that he has to complete his studies, he will try to convince them that the matter will succeed if the plan is kept secret
“We need some time to discuss this matter.” Frederic ended the discussion after seeing that the atmosphere was tense between Alexander and Walter
