Stopping, Jack stood still, his back facing the man who had replaced the previous principal.

Slowly Jack turned around to face the man.

"Yes?" Jack asked, his fists clenched as his eyes seemed to glint dangerously.

He always wore colored contact lenses these days, before it had been so that others couldn't see his red eyes until they turned to the amber color and nowadays it was because they would never return to their normal color.

"I was hoping to have another conversation with you, I think it would interest someone like you quite a lot." The man said as he motioned to the chair in front of him with his head.

Jack felt conflicted for a moment, did he run? Attack or comply.

In the end, he chose the last option as he walked to the chair and sat down.

The smile on the man's face grew larger at the sight.

"Good, I actually didn't expect for you to listen to me this peacefully." He said carefreely.

"You were expecting to have to use force? Are you even capable of that?" Jack said, there was no need to hide behind a facade anymore.

The man's words had already broken it, the atmosphere of the two supernaturals acting as if they were humans.

A low chuckle escaped out of the man's mouth as he slowly shook his head.

"I do not mean to harm you, Jack, so I'll give you some advice. Don't act so rashly as you did right now. You are still only a frog in a well in this world." The man said as his impossibly dark eyes seemed to become even darker.

The whole room started shaking lightly as the light coming from the window waned, the room becoming darker itself.

All of this happened for but a split moment and then it was gone, as if it had all just been a mirage.

'This bastard, is he trying to announce that he holds the power in this conversation?' Jack quickly figured out what the man was planning and gave him a light smile.

In times like these, a slight show of weakness would be the end, a complete defeat.

"I don't think you can actually catch me even if you tried," Jack said, he knew what kind of dangerous game he was playing here.

However it was the best option at the moment, the man clearly had no intentions to kill Jack and thus he could try to bluff his way into gaining a higher position in the discussion.

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

However, his entire ploy was shattered in a split moment.

Jack hadn't seen anything, not a single movement before he felt the man's index finger give him a flick on the forehead.

His eyes widened as they shook lightly.

"There's no need to bluff in front of me, now onto the matters that I actually want to discuss Jack." The man said with that same light smile on his face that he had kept on during the entirety of the discussion.

"What is it?" Jack asked after a quick moment that he took to stabilize his emotions.

"I want to invite you to join us, the Aurora Order." The man said straightforwardly, not beating around the bush at all.

"Join you? The Aurora Order? I can't just join when I don't even know anything about you or the organization you're talking about." Jack said as he furrowed his brows.

The man nodded his head.

"That's why I wanted you to sit down, I'll be explaining the basics of the organization, you can decide to join or to just leave the room when you hear everything." The man said before taking a moment to let his words resonate around the room.

"All right" Jack answered almost immediately, there were no downsides currently besides one that Jack could think of.

'He could tell me about the organization and then say that since I know too much, my only choice is to join it or get killed.' Jack thought as his eyes narrowed slightly before he nodded his head for the man to continue.

"My name is Archie, I'm what you could call a Captain of the Aurora Order. The ranks go from President, all the way down to Grunt. If you decide to join then I'll tell you about it in more detail." Archie said before he continued.

"The Aurora Order was created to further the goals of each member, we do not have any morals, and the only rule is that you are to never harm a fellow member. Of course, you have to do certain tasks once in a while, like what you saw me do back inside the forest. So to simplify it, we are simply a gathering of supernatural creatures who wish to achieve our goals and use each other to enhance the speed at which we arrive at those goals." Archie said as he crossed his hands in front of his chest and leaned back into his chair.

"That's it? I'm unsure whether I can actually believe that. What if the goal of one of the members is world destruction? Wouldn't that interfere with the others?" Jack questioned, his brows furrowed as he looked at Archie who looked like he didn't give a single fuck about anything that happened around him.

"Ah, we don't accept those guys, we don't want the world to get fucked over, we find the creations of humans rather useful so we do need them and in the end, humans are also a food source for many of us. If the world were to get destroyed then humanity would have no chance of survival and that would mean the deaths of quite a lot of us." Archie said with a shake of his head.

"So you just help each other? I don't think people are willing to help another without something to gain. I wouldn't at least."

"You get points for each commission done, you can create a commission and ask for help from the members. You can then use these points to get potions of advancement or anything else you are in need of." Archie answered simply.

Here's the daily chapter, I hope you guys liked it, I'm quite excited about the future of this volume, and I hope you guys will enjoy reading it.

However I do have to say that I've definitely split off from the main plot of the twilight a lot, I did this with my other fanfiction as well and I seem to do it a lot as I have all these ideas that I want to put forward but I end up changing the plot entirely and breaking it into pieces. I just wanted to say sorry for that.
