Transmigrated With A Resolution System

Shaking her head, her brows knit together. "Who said there is a catch?"

"What's the point of participating then?" He asked. "I'm not joining the sparring session, is there something else?"

As expected, she had merely wanted to get his thoughts on the matter if she had said that, but in reality, there really was a catch, or else, they all wouldn't be so eager to participate in it–she wouldn't be eager to set it in mind to go against the management on her suspension.

There was still a score to settle with Arion, he owed her a duel she so rightly wanted to engage in because of that. Ayanami was nothing more than an easy target, their last fight had been a testimony to that boring fact.

"You wouldn't join for the experience? You could learn about the others' different sparring styles, you would learn a lot about yourself in the process, or maybe about someone who is not as talented as you think."

She sneered at the thought of Ayanami probably bragging in front of him when they had met.

"I'm stronger, all I'd do is embarrass and waste precious time and the energy of your friends." He shrugged.

Lumina facepalmed, narrowing her eyes at how he outrightly bragged without letting up.

"I'm strong, but I would probably learn more from you from sparring with you, because you could teach me a few things only both of us can achieve." He wiggled his brows.

Her eyes widened in realization to what he had actually meant to say underneath his jest. "You and your sick thoughts." She scolded, flicking his forehead.

Feeling there was a need to hint him on what she had meant to say earlier, "so you know, some of the officials from the organization would be watching their students' performance, and they would give a better judgment of who was the best in the academy."

He chuckled, a little surprised that she was serious about what she had just said.

Deep down, this had sparked up a curiosity from within him.

"I see, well, I'm willing to take the chance. It's a rare opportunity." She shrugged, "We only get a limited time for it, and the rest of the time we just do boring lessons, things I already know of."

Climbing onto her bed, she patted the covers.

Simply staring at it, he needed to know the contents in that piece of paper, there was a chance it could be important and a possibility that it even contained a secret.

"As a female you should know the very first thing about cleanliness, please go wash up before I think of even getting on that." He pointed at the bed.

Sweat dropping, he knew he had practically spoken something relating to nothing more than stupid talk. All in a bid to get her to remove her clothing so he could inspect the content of the paper.

Lumina narrowed her eyes, unsure about what he was gaining at.

"You sound suspicious." She pointed an accusing finger at him.

"Think whatever you want to, but I'm not getting on there." He stood his ground, "I might as well make do with the floo–"

"Fine!" Lumina raised her voice, spilling out profanities at the wall.

'Finally!' Nix whooped, watching as she reluctantly got up, walking to the closet. Placing her hand momentarily, she thought of getting a bathing robe.

Opening the door, what she had thought of, laid folded inside. Pulling it out, she stared at Nix who blinked in response.

"Are you going to stare at me as I change?" She questioned.

"If I recall, there was a time when a certain someone drooled because of my naked torso." He tapped his chin lightly, looking at the ceiling as he feigned thinking on the memory.

Lumina's cheeks flushed at the embarrassing moment, she immediately turned around. "I wonder who that lucky girl was."

"Whatever... just hurry up, I would also need to wash off the stress I had invited." He shrugged, turning around and giving her enough privacy.

'You can rightly endure this, it isn't your first time seeing or ignoring one before.' He reminded himself repeatedly.

Click!

The sound of the door closing, alerted him that she had gone into the bathroom. His gaze immediately spotted her denim shorts on the bed.

Walking over to it, he searched the pockets with his hand, bringing out the piece of paper he so rightly needed.

Unfolding it, he looked to his side, to be sure she was dutifully busy with showering. After confirming the sound, he looked back at the piece of paper.

His eyes glanced over the heading and was visibly shocked at the content. It was indeed an information sent to her from the organization, but its content didn't seem to add up.

'What the hell do they mean, keep a close watch on the fire rank user?' He frowned at the sick plot twist that stared right in his face.

He had wanted so badly to believe that there might be another fire rank user, but the odds of that happening, coupled with the students reaction at finding out his rank could only mean one thing–this was a once in a blue moon gift.

"Goddamnit!" He cursed under his breath.

Reading the rest, he had gotten to know this was like some sort of pass to get into the organization. At the end, it required her signature, the space still unsigned for the moment. He began to wonder if he had interrupted her signing process when he had jumped in through the window.

'Had I been a fool to have trusted her words so blindly?' His fist clenched in rage, he couldn't tell what was real anymore.

'Was all she had said earlier just a ploy to get closer to me as they had ordered?' His eyes gleamed coldly at the audacity of trying to betray him.

Squeezing the paper, he shoved it back into the front pocket of the denim shorts. Walking over to the chair, he sat down, his chin resting on the intertwined fingers, deep in thought.

'You all are interested in me, huh?' He forced a smile, letting out a chuckle at the thought of what he had seen.

Betrayal was something he couldn't tolerate, if she was on their side, he could play their game and see who wins at the end.

He was good at hiding his true emotions, and this he could keep hidden and play the game of cat and mouse.

'Why did you get involved with them?!' He punched on the table.

Crrrk!

He watched the table break and fold inwards, all what was on it, sliding into the middle.

"What's going on this time? Why would you just break a perfectly innocent table?!" Lumina's voice boomed from behind.
