บท 2049: Request

Minutes ago, during the instructor's meeting, tensions simmered as Emery openly voiced his request. He declared his desire for the rank 7 serpent girl and all eight wolf acolytes. "Nine of them. That's what I want," he stated firmly.

The audacity of Emery's request reverberated through the room, eliciting a mixture of surprise and skepticism from his colleagues. As a new instructor who holds the lowest rank hall, his request seemed bold, if not outright arrogant.

Lucius responded with a subtle nod and a forced smile "That's a good choice, little brother," he acknowledged, though his words belied a hint of discomfort. "Unfortunately... You see, when I took this position from Senior Sinure, I realized there were no wolf acolytes at hall 7 at all," he explained, his expression clouding with concern. "Hence, I have been planning to take all eight of them with me into the top hall."
