He was important to him

Zane suddenly remembered the Freshman Raid; he had been meaning to talk to Phoenix about it, but it escaped his mind.

"Are you going to join them in the archives to look at videos of the assignments?" Zane asked.

Phoenix shook his head, "No, I am just going to the library to read for a while. Maybe play some games. Ethics class is compulsory, so they would all come back for the class, I would head into the classrooms then."

Zane swallowed, "Everyone is so excited about the raid. That was all my friends were talking about when they came yesterday. Some of them have already gotten offers from the freshmen in the Department of Strategy and Tactical Operations."

Phoenix leaned against the wall, "That is good. It is important for ranking. They should choose carefully."

"You must have been busy. What kind of party are you hoping for? How many people have you chosen? Do I know any of them?" Zane asked.
