Chapter 136 Convincing
'Sure, do whatever you want.'
Raven's last words before leaving rang inside Jeanna's head.
Her lips formed a beautiful smile as she can't believe Raven just gave her his permission to run his fan club.
'Well, not yet...'
Jeanna needs to do something for Raven first.
'But after I finish the task he gave me...'
'We can finally say we're Raven's official fan club!'
Jeanna excitedly thought.
"I need to tell the other members and ask for their cooperation."
She then mumbled and took her phone out.
After that, Jeanna went to the group chat of [Black Feathers]...
=====
[Jeanna]:Raven said if we can convince every freshman in Lunar to attend the incoming field trip, he'll let us openly operate the fan club!
=====
And made that announcement.
And as soon as Jeanna did...
Ting- Ting- Ting- Ting-
Ting- Ting- Ting- Ting-
Ting- Ting- Ting-
Her phone was flooded by notifications coming from the [Black Feathers]'s group chat!
They're mostly messages from the members saying they'll participate in the field trip and that they'll help invite the other freshmen too.
"Looks like this would be easy."
Jeanna mumbled as she look at her phone with delight.
*****
Tap- Tap- Tap-
Meanwhile, Raven is walking toward the sophomore's building...
"..."
With Lana quietly tailing him.
[Wow... Over half of the freshmen already declared their participation in the incoming field trip.]
Sariel then said in awe.
And Raven, who heard him, smiled...
"I knew it was a good idea to let them be."
And whispered that to himself.
'He's talking to himself... Weirdo.'
Lana then thought after seeing Raven smiling like an idiot alone and mumbling something.
Anyway, Raven is already aware of the [Black Feathers]'s existence and what they are doing.
He became aware of them a day after coming back from the [Labyrinth of the Nurturer].
After knowing their existence, he made Sariel join the group and investigate them.
Turns out that they're just really a group of his fans... With some of his haters joining every now and then.
(The haters are immediately kicked out of the group if they are discovered...)
Anyway, Raven decided to ignore them...
They're not doing something harmful to him so he thought it was fine.
In fact, they're even boosting the effect of his trait, <I like the spotlight>, so their group is actually beneficial to him!
"We're getting near the sophomore's building."
Lana then suddenly spoke.
Which made Raven look at her.
The awkwardness between them disappeared as they switched to professional mode.
They're currently focused on doing their job at the moment.
"I will handle the job of convincing the sophomores."
Lana then declared.
Her voice isn't loud, but she's confident.
"..."
Raven then looked at Lana for a couple of seconds.
"Sure, I know it'll be a piece of cake for you."
Then he stated that and faced forward again.
"You got too much faith in me."
Lana said as she walked beside Raven.
"It's because I know what you can do."
And Raven casually replied without even looking at her.
Lana frowned a little because of Raven's arrogant thought that he knows her.
"..."
But she didn't say anything because she thought it would just lead to a stupid argument.
*****
[7:19 P.M.]
Lana finished convincing the sophomores to join the field trip.
About 80% of the sophomores are joining, 11% are undecided, and the remaining 9% wouldn't come.
While she wasn't able to convince every sophomore to join... It's still a satisfactory result.
Also considering that Lana only did it for roughly 2 hours and there are about 5000 sophomores...
It's already a job well done.
"See, I told you it'll be a piece of cake for you."
Raven said that as he walks beside Lana.
"..."
Lana just remained silent.
Raven was simply following her the whole time she was convincing the sophomores.
And currently, they're headed to the tertiary's building.
(Classes go from 10:30 AM to 8:30 PM in Lunar.)
They plan to finish their job today...
"Are you not tired?"
Raven the. suddenly asked as they walk.
And as a response...
"No."
Lana briefly replied.
But as if not hearing her words.
Swish–
Raven took something out of his spatial storage...
"Here."
And handed it to Lana.
Lana then momentarily stopped walking... (The same goes for Raven.)
And she looked at Raven's hand.
"..."
'It's a chocolate bar.'
It's a chocolate bar...
"What's that?"
"A chocolate bar."
"I know. Why are you giving it to me?"
"Chocolate has caffeine and sugar, it also contains a variety of nutrients that boost your energy level."
"..."
After their short exchange of words...
Lana's expression became complicated.
She doesn't know how to react to Raven's action.
"Just take it, eating chocolate isn't a bad thing either way."
And that's when Raven just basically forced the chocolate on her.
After that...
Swish–
He took out another chocolate... It's for him.
(The reason why Raven offered Lana a chocolate is because he wants to eat and thought it would be awkward to eat alone.)
"You said eating chocolate isn't a bad thing, what if I'm allergic to it?"
Lana then asked Raven.
Raven looked at her, then with a calm face...
"But you're not."
He replied.
"How can you be sure?"
Lana asked another question.
Then this time, with a smile on his face...
"It's because I'm not stupid."
Raven answered.
'I wouldn't put a stupid allergy to my characters, that's just stupid. Especially when they are in a world where magic and mana exist.'
He thought.
"???"
Of course, Lana has no idea what he's talking about.
But Raven couldn't care less as he started walking again.
"..."
So in the end...
"Well, I like chocolates."
Lana unwrapped the chocolate bar from its packaging.
And started eating the chocolate.
'Sweet.'
Lana thought as she follows after Raven.
*****
In Lunar, there are about roughly 2000 tertiary students.
Tertiary has the smallest number of students.
And the reason behind that is that most of the students get stuck in the sophomore.
Anyway, you might think it would be easy for Lana and Raven to convince 2000 tertiary students after convincing roughly 7000 students in a matter of hours.
But you're wrong...
Tertiaries are organized like a group, they have a hierarchy.
And the king of the tertiaries...
Is Branwen Asterope.
Along with his queen, Darci Haux.
(Check Chapter 84 for more details about them.)
And the problem is...
"You basically declared a war against them the first time you saw them." (Chapter 84.)
Lana said to Raven.
"..."
Raven, who's guilty, ignored her.
"He will probably make our job harder."
Lana stated.
"..."
And Raven just frowned.
"And here I was hoping to finish the job in a day."
Lana then spoke again.
Her facial expression is as calm as usual, but her tone is a bit sarcastic.
"What should we do?"
She asked Raven.
"... I'll take care of it."
And Raven finally replied.
"How?"
"Just trust me."
After saying that, Raven fastened his pace...
And Lana followed him.
She's saying things that will make Raven feel guilty from time to time.
But Raven doesn't actually feel guilty, he's just getting annoyed...
...
...
After a couple of minutes, Raven and Lana reached the classroom of [CLASS A-3].
"You ready?"
Lana asked Raven as they stood in front of the room's door.
And Raven, who's quite annoyed...
"I am."
Replied.
Then he grabbed the door handle in front of him, and...
Bam!
He opened the door with so much force!
"!!!"
Lana's eyes widened in surprise.
And before she could even say something...
Tap-
Raven entered the room without hesitation.
'Shit...'
So Lana has no choice but to enter as well...
*****
[Raven's POV]
After entering the room of [CLASS A-3].
I immediately felt a lot of gaze on me.
Ignoring those...
I looked around and searched for specific people.
And just a second after, I found them...
'Branwen and Darci.'
They're in the very back row, sitting beside each other with Branwen's arm wrapped around Darci's shoulder.
They're looking at me with wide eyes.
Not that I really care...
So with a frown on my face.
"Come here, we need to talk."
I blurted those words out because of annoyance.
