He met Sarah at the entrance and their arrival coincided with Evander's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only reason Varian was interested in the meeting was Charles. Recalling the fierce Charles who despite his rage, couldn't do anything, Varian couldn't help but smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he recalled that Xanders were the ones related to her death, his eyes flashed. 'Once I get strong, that's the day you die.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Varian, don't zone out.\" Sarah's voice sounded beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My bad. I'm still relishing in Charles' angry look.\" He smiled and walked out of the dean's block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luna, Sarah's Space shuttle was waiting for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it okay to skip the mission meeting?\" Varian asked. Sarah was the faction head, so she should at least attend it for the sake of it, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah puffed her chest and said. \"I have full confidence in Seniors Dhruv and Mia. I'm merely a second year. All I can do is follow their arrangements.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...you're right.\" Varian nodded disbelievingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who was she kidding?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But apparently, every member of the faction had to sit for a couple hours on this meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sudden Vice head, he too must attend the meeting. Thanks to Sarah, he avoided it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they boarded Luna, Anna served them refreshments as they sat in the living compartment\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"VARIAN!\" Amidst Charles' roar, Luna took off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, even though Sarah's space shuttle was far, far smaller than ghostship, Varian felt more comfortable in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A good senior sister, a capable maid and luxurious interior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Is this the peak of life?' Varian twirled the juice glass in his hand with a profound expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna looked at Varian's lazy posture as he leaned back on the couch. If she had to compare, he was similar to a lazy cat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What about her miss?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Eh?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah came out into white top and pants—her training clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss—\" Anna stopped as Sarah appeared in front of the lazy Varian and dragged him into the fighting room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Varian, your punishment begins.\" Was what she said. Even her tone was serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Anna could tell. 'She isn't angry. She is anxious and frustrated.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I wonder what happened inside.' Anna smiled and followed them into the fighting room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fighting room was the most expensive customization Sarah made. It was coated with a high grade alloy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This little room of over two hundred square meters could easily bear the attack from a peak Level 6 Awakener.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sarah, let this slide.\" Varian coughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah's shoulders trembled and she swiped her comm. \"Slide? Take responsibility for you've done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of holograms popped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Oh?' Anna's eyebrow raised at Sarah's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian…didn't do anything weird, did he?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her worries were for naught as she found the content on the holograms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she read the trending news article titles, with each one more click bait than the other, Anna couldn't help but click her tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{'I pick you' Varian bold lines. Is Sarah's silence acquiescence?}\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{Hundreds of second and third year cadets are signing a petition to bring in an anti-dating law.}\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{The president of Sarah fanclub stated he'd rather die than let Sarah fall into Varian's evil clutches!}\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'My my, I missed a good show.' Anna covered her mouth to stifle her laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Well, I can still see something everyone else won't.' She focused on Varian and Sarah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian wasn't shocked at the articles. It was like…he was expecting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah, on the other hand, was trembling. She pointed her finger at Varian and yelled. \"There's no way I am letting this slide. Get yourself ready to be beaten.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah used to be calm and composed all the time. She always worked towards her goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since that mission, something changed in her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'No. She just returned to normal.' Anna became the silent spectator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian took a deep breath and with a serious expression. \"I can tell you the real reason.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah paused all of a sudden. Without knowing, she clenched her fist and her voice trembled. \"G-Go on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's gaze alternated between Anna and Sarah. It was as if he was debating his own decision to reveal the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna watched in anticipation as she awaited the grand reveal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hey, say it already! Are you waiting for season 2 or what?' She wanted to yell, but like a good maid, she controlled herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her comm buzzed and Anna squinted her eyes. They already reached Amethyst community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, she would reveal this to them and the drama would stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, to stop this show just because the journey ended would be a pity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'A maid gotta do what a maid must do.' Anna told herself and ordered the space shuttle to circle around the campus until she asked otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the drama that was supposed to end continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked at the nervous Sarah and gritted his teeth. \"Promise that you will not beat me up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\" Sarah was taken aback and cocked her head. \"Aren't I going to beat you up, ahem, spar with you anyway?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's face twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah gave a smile that would've fascinated countless men as she said. \"You can say the reason and maybe, just maybe, I'll spare you for this prank.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian sighed deeply and closed his eyes. 'So this is how I die, huh.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Boo.' He called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Yes, Master.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Your master will become a ghost like you in a few minutes.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That's wonderful!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'...Wonderful my ass. Sigh. Forget it,? I have only one request before I die.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What is it, master? Boo promises to do anything it can.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'My tomb, make sure nothing weird is written on my tomb. Especially words like virgin or single. Or I might come back from dead and destroy the tomb myself.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'....but isn't that true?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Shut up! And follow the order.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Yes! Now please die!' Boo said with sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah, who was anxious and nervous saw Varian close his eyes and her brain started overworking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'H-He, why is he thinking so deeply? Was that some sort of prank? Did he mean it? No. He never looked at me like that. Yes. But-'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Sarah's thoughts spiralled out of control, Varian's eyes snapped open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna and Sarah were both taken aback by his expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the expression of a man that was about to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Do you think I'll eat you or what?' Sarah wanted to ask him loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sarah, do you remember how many girls attended the meeting?\" Varian threw a seemingly irrelevant question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So the reason is girls…wait, what are you talking about?\" Sarah raised an eyebrow and groaned in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just answer me, Sarah.\" Varian said as he sighed in resignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Around forty. All are mid or high Level 5.\" Sarah replied. Even though she skipped, ahem, passed on the work to Mia and Dhruv, she had the basic knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian shook his head and said. \"There were fifty six girls. Without you, fifty five.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's expression turned bitter. \"You were far too engrossed in Dean's speech, you didn't even notice their gestures the whole thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl asked me from military faction asked my for my comm's contact. Initially, I thought she just wanted to add contact. So I agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who knew the first girl opened a chat window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the second girl joined. Then the third and then fourth. In no time, forty girls joined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah's mouth opened wide as she stared at Varian in a daze. It was true that she was completely immersed in Evander's speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A part of her didn't want to disappoint him. She already disappointed him by refusing the hide outs purge last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what the hell was going on with this forty girls?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian gritted his teeth. \"First it was formal talk. Then they revealed their true nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were asking for a date. Some were asking for a night out, ahem. Forty members…they were competing and offering conditions.\" Varian recalled the craziness and shivered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew women were so scary?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah's expression turned weird and she said. \"My father must have seen and heard it all. D-Didn't he say anything?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon she as mentioned him, Varian gnashed his teeth. \"He saw my predicament. When I hoped he would help me, h-he gave me a smile and even gave me an encouraging nod. Like what? Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Taken aback by her father's weird behavior , Sarah's mind was focused on the answer she found. \"So you used me as a shield. Now those girls will stay away from you, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's face stiffened and he nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah put on a kind face and approached him step by step. \"Varian, I can understand your problems, but you know, I'm really frustrated. Since I am your shield, be my punching bag, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN: I missed the release time.
