NOVEL NEXT Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Explanation.
Naíndra statement is harsh, yet, she is not lying, as Leroy has a tattoo of two circles with an "×" ex in the center.
This may seem as an insignificant detail, but this particular tattoo not only represents the "Lanigiro", who abhor those with access to the Åyûrïc Energy, but also, can only be carried by women, or men without testicles.
In the case of the family jewels being restored, the tattoo self-destructs with a small explosion that pulverize the wearer's hand, applying a debuff to difficult the regeneration of the lost body part.
"I can do whatever I want with my own life, Nuxinus"; Counter Leroy, not backing away from the offensive words of the Vixen Bombshell "Just like you sell yourself for a few Credits".
"Oh!, How much is a few?"; Asks Elton with interest, angering Tania, who is visibly displeased with the situation.
"Fifty Thousand Credits"; Nonchalantly reply Naíndra "But you have only one chance to please me, if you want another go, is Twenty Five Millions, and there is no third time for anyone who doesn't satisfy me".
Elton inquire with excitement"What if you really like it?"; Naíndra snorts, and with a coquettish smile she winks at the Arrogant Young Man "That is obvious Elton, I am free for use, as long as the responsible is available when I need to blow some steam".
The clock in Londra's Office sounds, showing is "22:30", changing the attitude of the Instructor, snapping her fingers with a loud noise "Chatting time is over, Cadets ARSE-83 and DICK-69, take a seat, I want everyone silent, questions at the end, Doubts?".
Not a single one of the Freshmen is dumb enough to utter a word back to the stern woman, to which Londra says "Good, Let's start with the reasons for tomorrow's departure over the normal class schedule at the beginning of each school year".
"The First motive is to corroborate who of the Freshmen are not fitted for the lifestyle expected on all Cadets of this Institution".
{Understandable, why they would waste time teaching someone unworthy when there are so many candidates willing and talented out there}
"There are a total of five expeditions with increasing difficulty, these Explorations will not be counted or reflected in your academic performance, because failing in them means any of you is dead or immediately expelled from Tiaone".
{That means we should do our best always, as we are being evaluated at all times}
"The Second Motive is a new approach suggested by the Headmaster Aaron Aldevor for the next generations of Cadets to be more in touch and useful with the inmediations, as the Governor of Eldyron City accept, we have to deal with more Invasive Territories".
{So is mandatory and Londra has pretty much her hands tied in this situation… , I wouldn't mind tying her hands on my own too}
"The Third and Last Motive is not delaying your own progress; Is impossible to determine when is going to end the Ten For Teammate situation with the Imperishable Monoliths".
{And I have 29 Shards that are useless at this moment}
"However, is unacceptable, and for those who are not aware, every three exchanged Shards, is given a Trait, the more compatible you are with Traits, the better your improvement ratio".
{Interesting, then I can have 10 Traits is I obtain another Shard?}
"Buying Traits is an option too, yet, they are extremely expensive and scarce, as most Traits are obtained or unlocked after defeating Strong Creatures from the Invasive Territories".
{I see the necessity and usefulness of the Imperishable Monoliths, they remove the danger and give the reward technically for free}
"Further preparation for tomorrow's journey will be done in the City Market from 5:45 to 7:15, before our departure from the walls at 7:30, our destination is yet to be decided, but you must be in the courtyard at 5:00, I made myself clear?".
Londra's question is answered at unison by the Exploration Group with a "Pristine Clear Instructor".
"Excellent, have dinner, and go straight to your rooms, all of you need a good rest, as is highly probable, this would be the only opportunity you have to sleep over a bed until the next week; That is all for now, you are free to go".
Londra's warning surprise Etzchielle, Tania, Elton and Leroy, while the other four are unfazed by the revealed fact.
"Let's have a dinner together, it is on my count"; Comment Naíndra with friendly attitude as she puts her right arm behind the head of the white skinned woman sitting beside her.
The Club Member sinks into the shadow of her silhouette, reappearing from the shadow of the Cadet GWLC-57 in a fast and organic motion that makes the Young Man shiver in fear and discomfort "Do not touch me so lightly Naíndra".
Leroy calms the unwanted spasms of his body and turns angered towards the Lady that pop up from his shadow "The same goes for you Vitenous, don't do that ever again, is disgusting!".
"Is your own fault"; Flatly mentions the Club Member, having a concerning expression as she talks "I tried to go out from the Dark Realm from the shadow of Cadet ARSE-83, but your's is so weak that is a miracle that you are not spawning Darklings as you walk".
Naíndra replies with indifference "Who cares, he is a Lanigiro without Åyûrïc Energy to eliminate the Darklings, he would die and the problem would be self resolved".
"Unless the Darklings have a Commander or a worse aberration from their Realm leading them and actively ordering to not Take Down those with Fragile Shadows"…
Londra's phrase surprise everyone, as the next words of the stern Instructor "I have to decline the offer for the dinner, even if is absurd, I must inform the possibility to the Headmaster".
The Exploration Group goes out of Londra's Office and Naíndra invites the Instructor once again "We would be in the Cafeteria for a few hours if you still want to join our dinner Instructor".
"I will think about it"; Say Londra, as she walks away pretty fast for a person who thinks "An Absurd Possibility" just needs to be mentioned casually to the Headmaster.
