Valery shivered as she felt Ryan's hot breath on her neck and his words tickle the inside of her ears.
pA n,dan(-)0ve1.c0m She wanted to tell him to do a lot more than stay, but she knew that once they crossed that line, there was no going back.
Lightly pushing Ryan away, she said, "We can't," Controlling her rapidly beating heart, she continued, "The academy rules don't allow teachers to intermix with undergraduate enhancers."
Ryan shrugged, "What about for regular enhancers?" He had already accessed his heavenly screen, so he technically wasn't an undergraduate anymore.
Biting her lip, Valery looked longingly at Ryan before shaking her head, "I'm just a First Lieutenant. I can't be with someone like you."
Ryan was about to press the issue, but he identified the look in her eye to be self-deprecating. It occurred to Ryan that she wasn't talking about her status being too high for him. She was saying his status was too high for her.
Walking back around the desk, Ryan sat in the same chair he occupied earlier and asked in a monotone voice, "So you know then?"
Looking up, Valery saw Ryan, with a blank expression sitting in a chair opposite her. His eyes were emotionless, as if the scene that just took place never occurred.
This saddened her even more as she inferred by his actions that Ryan had just been playing with her before.
"They only told me not to get in your way and to support you from the shadows."
"They never told me who you were, but it's obvious you're important to the empire."

Ryan sat with his back pressed against the wooden backside of the chair, his arms propped up on the armrest, his hands stroking his nonexistent facial hair with a forlorn expression on his face.
'That girl probably works for the military then,' Ryan thought back on his previous experience with the unknown girl that caused his three-week blackout.
'But if that's true, then who was I that the military wanted to seal my memories but at the same time support me in the shadows?' This was the main problem that irked him.
All he knew was that he had been drugged and brainwashed to forget… something? Everything? He still didn't know.
But the news that he was someone important to the human empire made him rethink his previous assessment.
He had figured that since Marcus had known something about him, he must not be THAT important. But since the Lieutenant was making such a big deal about this, he knew Marcus probably only heard a rumor.
'That only leaves… Mila.' He also had a flashback when seeing Mila in the auditorium, but the scene was still fuzzy.
'Plus, I still have to pay her back for getting me excluded from the factions.' Ryan wouldn't have agreed to join a faction, but that wasn't his main issue.
If she wanted to exclude him from her faction, fine. Even if she wanted to exclude him from ALL the factions, fine. But when she tried to humiliate him in front of all the freshmen… that crossed a line.
If she had been successful, it would virtually be impossible for him to find anyone to cultivate with for an entire year.
'No one messes with my right to putang.'

Valery sat watching the change of emotions on Ryan's face. She saw apprehension, confusion, anger, and anticipation play across his face before she couldn't handle the silence any longer.
"The reason I wanted to see you is to update you on the past three weeks and tell you about the event happening at the end of the month."
Drifting out of his thoughts, Ryan looked at Valery, waiting for her to continue.
"Over the past three weeks, your 99 other ranked classmates have made varying degrees of progress which you can check via your wristband." She said, pointing to the military-issued bracelet he got from the auditorium.
Bringing up his wristband, he focused his mental energy on the bracelet, and a series of options popped up.
Mentally clicking on the class option, he saw a list of 100 names, of which he was at the very bottom.
"Your class rank is determined by how many times and how much you enhance a female cadet of the first year. Any other activities aren't counted, for instance, with your servants or upperclassman."
Looking at the list of names, he saw the top name was Gregory Vanroth.
"What do these points mean?" Ryan asked as Gregory Vanroth had 2568.3 "points."
"Points are calculated based are calculated via our own system of enhancement. This ranks all enhancers as the same enhancer rank and only differentiates based on sperm quality. Typical F-Ranked quality sperm will enhance a cultivator by 100 points. E-Rank will enhance by 125, D-Rank by 175, C-Rank by 250, B-Rank by 350, and A-Rank by 500. The range varies; for instance, anyone with B-Rank quality will have at least 350 points per ejaculation but could be up to 499 points."
"Then it's just simple multiplication with how many times you've done the deed."
Nodding his head, Ryan understood.
"Do these points have any worth?" Having sex was great, but he'd rather be doing it with people with higher cultivation bases than just first years.
"Points can be traded in a 10:1 ratio with campus credits, and your total points allow you to attend special events on campus."
"Which reminds me of the real purpose of my wanting to talk with you."
"The first event is coming up at the end of the month, and the top 10 enhancer students in your class get to attend."
Ryan looked at Valery, seemingly not interested at all in the event, until he heard her next words.
"I heard you didn't get into any factions, which is why it's so important to you. The heads of all the factions run the event." f(r)eewebnovel
But all Ryan heard was, 'Mila will be there.'
His chance for revenge was coming.
