Somewhere in the shadows outside the freshman dormitory, a few shadows were whispering to each other.
"There are surveillance cameras everywhere in the dorm, there are no blind spots!"
"What about the rooftop?"
"It's the same, maybe even stricter!"
"Is it possible to sneak in?"
"That's impossible. There are more guards in the surroundings, and they're strict with everyone!"
"Damn it, why is it like this?"
"Because there are people that the big shots care about!"
"Whether it is our employer, the research center, or the school, everyone is interested in our target."
"I suggest we give up on the operation."
"It won't end well for us to mingle in the middle."
"No!"
"The person who hired us isn't that easy to talk to."
"Seems like we have to change our best method."
Their voices got softer and softer until they couldn't be heard anymore.
Soon, the few figures went away.
Throughout the whole process, they didn't notice there was a pair of eyes above their heads, watching everything.
…
In the evening, Marv appeared in the public hall with a smile on his face.
The freshmen who had just finished dinner were chatting in the hall in groups of three to five. Laughter could be heard from time to time.
When the freshmen saw Marv, they greeted him one after another.
Some were transient students and some were official students of Theorate.
As the representative of the transient students, Marv treated everyone equally. He was neither humble nor arrogant, but he was very passionate, which made the other students smile even more.
For the freshmen who came to a new environment, Marv, who was willing to help others and possessed decent strength, was a decent friend.
Especially the 'pretty strong' part, it made the freshmen unconsciously forget about Marv's identity as a temporary student.
One needed to know that Marv was able to last almost a minute against First Seat Maica, and after Maica defeated the 2nd year student, the curious freshmen were calling him the strongest First Seat Assistant.
As for the title of 'strongest freshman'?
As long as one wasn't crazy, one would know who the title belonged to.
"Assistant Standler, is Assistant Maica in?"
Marv went out of the public hall and knocked on First Seat Assistant's door. It was Standler who opened the door.
"He should be in the public training field!"
Standler said in a hurry with a pen in his hand.
"Do you need help?"
"If it's just checking the roster and noting the courses, I think I'm pretty good at it."
Marv said with a smile.
"Can I?"
Standler looked at Marv in surprise.
After Kieran threw all the First Seat's work to him and Maica didn't have the slightest intention to share the burden, Kieran had been busy all the time.
It was no exaggeration to say that they had to speed up eating.
Even so, he still needed to sleep less than an hour at night.
If someone could help, Standler would be more than happy to oblige.
"Of course."
"I'm glad to be of help to you, Standler.
Marv then walked into the room and after a brief introduction from Standler, he immersed himself in his work.
With Marv's help, Standler finished the work an hour before going to bed.
Both of them sent the documents to Kieran's room, and after Standler thanked him, Marv excitedly requested a duel with Maica, who had just returned.
Maica did not refuse.
An hour later, at the public training field, Marv, who was covered in injuries and exhausted, bade farewell to Maica, who was also panting heavily.
They agreed to continue the duel the next day.
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
For three consecutive nights, Marv would help Standler record and organize the documents. He would then send the documents to Kieran before sparring with Maica.
Everything looked so normal.
Just like how Marv usually behaved, he was diligent and willing to help others. The relationship between Marv and Kieran unconsciously got closer.
However, unbeknownst to everyone, one message after another was sent out.
However, when the watcher in the dark received the messages, he frowned.
It wasn't that he thought Marv was lying to him again.
Combining the information he got from Marv, the watcher compiled a more detailed report on the First Seat of the freshmen.
Eating, attending classes, borrowing books, and so on, he was just like any other students who had officially entered their studies.
Very normal.
Very normal.
If it wasn't for the great things that Marv did before, the watcher would think Marv was just a common Theorate student.
At most, he would be a little colder.
"This shouldn't be!
Is he really not related to the things that happened before?
Did he run into all those things by coincidence?
Or … "
"Our surveillance has been discovered?"
The watcher was in deep thought.
Then, one of the watcher's subordinates sent him another message.
"Going to the stadium at midnight on the weekend?"
The watcher went into deep thought when he saw the new message from Marv.
After hiring Marv, the watcher didn't just want Kieran's information, Kieran's two assistants were also within the watcher's surveillance range.
"Maybe this is a chance!"
The watcher clenched his fist when he thought of something.
…
"There's a treasure in the stadium?"
Standler's eyes shone when he saw Marv.
"Yeah, I heard it from someone.
When Standler told me that you and Maica were going to investigate the crying stadium during the weekend, I asked some upperclassmen that I knew about it.
At first, the stadium was similar to our cafeteria. Rumor has it that there's a treasure hidden in the stadium, but after a couple died in the stadium, it became the crying stadium. "
Marv nodded, spilling out the words that he had prepared beforehand.
It wasn't a lie, it was something that he had heard from others.
"It's all lies, you guys really believe it?"
Maica crossed his arms and pouted.
"No, no, the cafeteria did have some tricks up its sleeves!
And based on what I know, the First Seat has gotten his hands on it!
Remember the maintenance team that went in and out of the cafeteria a while ago?
They were there to repair the damage that the First Seat left behind. "
Standler turned around to his friend and said in a serious tone.
"But that's the First Seat, not us.
We are different from the First Seat. "
Maica rolled his eyes.
As time went by and he experienced more, Maica's respect for Kieran grew. At first, he still had the intention to chase after Kieran, but now, he was completely convinced. Maica had gone through a qualitative change.
In his heart, he even had the thought that 'what others couldn't do, Kieran can do it'.
"Yeah."
Standler was stunned for a while before he nodded with a bitter smile.
Compared to his friend Mica, Standler knew more about Kieran since he was in charge of contacting the school's authorities.
When all the rumors were presented to Standler as the truth, the shock in his heart was indescribable.
All he had left for Kieran was a deep sense of reverence.
Standler and Maica fell into silence, so Marv spoke in a timely manner.
"Maybe we can tell the First Seat about this.
With the First Seat's strength, he might be able to locate the treasure easily. "
Standler and Maica looked up at the same time, both of them nodding after exchanging gazes.
…
"The treasure of the gymnasium?"
Kieran stood at the entrance and looked at the three of them.
Of course, most of his attention was focused on Marv. He knew exactly what Marv was up to.
As for Marv being bribed?
Kieran wasn't surprised at all.
A person who thought he was outstanding but was unlucky, no matter how well he hid it, there would always be a weakness that would hurt the moment it was revealed.
Finding the weakness and controlling Marv was a piece of cake.
In order to confuse the enemy in the dark, Kieran didn't mind playing along.
"Yes, we've checked it out.
Before the crying gymnasium rumor, there was a rumor about the treasure of the gymnasium, but because of the couple's death, the rumor was replaced by the former one. "
Standler said.
Before he knocked on the door, he purposely went to check it out.
Just like what Marv said, there was a treasure hidden in the gymnasium, but no one knew what it was.
"Give me the information you've gathered."
Kieran said.
"You agreed?"
Standler was overjoyed.
"I need to have a look, come find me in the evening."
Kieran took the paper bag and closed the door.
Standler and Maica, who were blocked outside, didn't care at all.
Both of them were used to their First Seat's independent actions.
Since the start of the semester, neither of them had truly stepped into the First Seat's room. Although they were curious about what was inside, their rationality told them not to simply raise their curiosity.
Curiosity killed the cat.
Marv, who was standing behind the two of them, showed a faint cold smile.
"He's taken the bait!"
Marv had collected information about Kieran, so he knew Kieran's behavior pattern very well.
He might not start a fight without a reason but he would never hold back against an ownerless item.
"Do you really think a Bento class food can make me serve you wholeheartedly?
Let's have a good fight!
It'd be best if both sides suffer heavy losses!
When that happens, it'll be my turn to fight! "
The unwillingness in his heart turned into the most basic ambition, coldness flashing over Marv's eyes. However, when Standler and Maica turned around, Marv showed a warm smile again.
"Let's just wait patiently.
The First Seat will not disappoint us. "
Marv said.
"Em.
The First Seat's strength will not disappoint. "
Maica was also very confident.
"But I'm afraid the First Seat isn't interested."
Standler, on the other hand, was a little worried.
As Kieran's aide, Standler had a taste of the First Seat's stubbornness. Until now, the First Seat had never really written a class record, it was Standler who wrote it and signed it. It was fair to say that Kieran was the most irresponsible First Seat in the history of Theorate.
Even the rumored First Seat of the upper year didn't do something like this.
Standler was a little distracted as he exclaimed in his heart. He didn't notice Maica had stopped and crashed into his back.
"Micah, you …"
Standler wanted to say something, but his eyes were captivated by the two figures before him.
They were both tall and slender, but one was cold and the other hot. However, they exuded completely different charms. Coupled with the fact that both of them had their own merits and were both exceptionally beautiful, it was even more difficult to take one's eyes off them.
Just like at this moment, all the freshmen in the corridor were attracted by it.
Including Standler, Maica, and Marv.
However, unlike the other freshmen, the three of them quickly regained their senses.
"Are those the Third and Fourth Graders?"
Standler muttered in an uncertain tone.
"Yes."
"Apart from those two, I can't think of anyone else who could have such elegance."
"This is really … unexpected."
Marv nodded as if he was trying to find an adjective to express his astonishment, but in the end, he could only come up with the word 'unexpected'.
A hint of passion flashed across the representative's eyes.
It was a scorching heat that far exceeded that of seeing something beautiful.
It was a kind of possessiveness and even a desire to destroy.
However, Marv hid it well and was very good at distracting himself.
"Maica, what's wrong?
Are you stunned by the beauty of the two First Seats? "
Marv nudged Maica with his shoulder.
"Strong!
They are so strong, I can't even breathe.
It's like a lion or a tiger walking past me. "
Maica heaved a sigh of relief. His forehead was covered in sweat as he watched the two First Seats walk further away.
"This can't be, right?
You didn't even lose your composure in front of the First Seat.
Are they stronger than the First Seat? "
Marv continued with his smile.
"Nope!
The First Seat has surpassed my senses. Although they are like a lion or a tiger, the First Seat is like the sky, the earth, or the sea, they are not on the same level!
In the First Seat's eyes, they are nothing but a kitten or a puppy! "
Maica said seriously.
"Hey hey hey, you will get beaten up if you act like this.
But, they are here for … "
Marv sounded like he was joking but his eyes were glued to the two First Seats. He already had some guesses in his heart.
As a matter of fact, all the freshmen had their own guesses.
The 3rd and 4th year First Seats appeared in the freshmen dorm, who were they looking for?
The freshmen First Seats, of course.
Other than that, there were no other possibilities.
Everything unfolded as they expected. Two beautiful figures stopped in front of the First Seat's door and knocked on it.
Then, to everyone's surprise, after the door was opened, two figures walked in!
'They went in?
'They went in?
Isn't the place forbidden? '
All the freshmen widened their eyes, filled with disbelief.
Marv, on the other hand, had more jealousy in his eyes.
They stared at Kieran's room until the door was closed.
Bang!
The door wasn't that loud but it felt like it struck the freshmen's hearts, causing them to shiver. Somehow, a never before felt disappointment rose in their hearts, as if they had lost something.
It was like a little boy seeing a girl he fell in love with at first sight, only to realize there was a much better man standing beside her.
However, the pure and persistent little boys would never give up in times like this.
Unless something happened that made them feel despair.
For example, at this very moment.
Listening to the strange noises and heavy breathing coming from the room, the entire corridor was silent.
…
Inside the room, Kieran kept his fist.
He glanced over Jemara, who was lying on the floor, twitching and moaning in pain, and then at Renata.
