"Boss, the Student Council has conceded, so our credit transfer business can start expanding again." Raquel said excitedly on the projection screen. Standing next to him was a tall girl, Nancy, the senior who had previously helped Lancelot enroll.
Although Raquel is cunning, he is still loyal to his friends.
Moreover, if Nancy hadn't introduced him to Lancelot, Raquel would still be an unknown credit broker, and he wouldn't have had the opportunity to make his mark later.
Raquel was very grateful for this and took the initiative to invite Nancy to participate in the business, to which she readily agreed.
Nancy didn't dare to engage in private credit exchange before because she didn't have any powerful backers. Now that Lancelot is standing behind her, she's naturally no longer afraid.
After listening quietly to Raquel's work report for a while, Lancelot nodded slightly and instructed, "I will be leaving the academy to carry out a mission in five days. You should expand your business discreetly and try to avoid direct conflict with other forces. Prioritize stability. We can discuss any issues when I return."
"Huh? Boss, are you going out on a mission? But you're only a first-year student." Raquel asked, puzzled.
Nancy, who was standing next to him, said irritably, "How can you compare the boss to a normal student? When you were a freshman, you could climb 409 steps of the Holy Sword Stairway?"
"Uh... that's true. Come to think of it, it seems that none of the second-year students have reached the Tier Seven combat power." Raquel slapped his forehead and smiled sheepishly.
Nancy said, "Our strongest member this year, Vermila, is only at the peak of the Tier Six. It's said that she's very close to the Tier Seven, but before crossing that threshold, the difference is like heaven and earth."
The two talked back and forth, and after Lancelot gave them a few more instructions, he hung up the phone.
He was just about to take a shower to relax when the doorbell rang; someone was visiting.
Lancelot was taken aback and told Christine to open the door.
An unexpected person came into view.
The newcomer was of well-proportioned build, neither too tall nor too short, with sharp and piercing eyes, giving him a somewhat hawk-like and wolf-like gaze.
Fanxite Luoni, a senior Student Council member, a Innovation School Ability Energy, the leader of the Inspection Office, and the guy who once tripped up Lancelot.
The two looked at each other, Fanxite had a smile on his face.
Lancelot was about to close the door when he saw the gift in Fanxite's hand, and his idea of turning the latter away vanished instantly.
It wasn't that he liked the gift; it was just that Fanxite's smile was too sincere.
Lancelot considered himself a kind person; how could he bear to refuse the other party's kindness?
That's so impolite!
"Senior, please come in."
The two sat facing each other in the living room.
Fanxite placed the two gifts, one large and one small, on the table.
"This is an apology from the Morgan Family, hoping you can forgive Peidasi's immature actions. This is my personal apology; please understand my difficulties, junior. From now on, junior, please feel free to ask for anything you need."
Fanxite lowered his head slightly, his attitude appearing somewhat humble.
Lancelot looked at his senior, but he didn't find the other's behavior funny at all. On the contrary, his opinion of the man improved considerably.
Being flexible sounds simple, but it's actually quite difficult.
A true man can bend and stretch, but most people can only stretch and not bend.
Despite his young age, Fanxite is already a senior member of the Holy Sword Academy's Student Council, and his future is undoubtedly bright.
It is truly commendable that someone who can be considered a super genius even in the entire Alliance could set aside his arrogance and bow down to Lancelot, who is his junior.
What's even more remarkable is that Lancelot didn't find any dissatisfaction or hidden resentment in Fantéxi.
His observation skills were incredibly sharp.
This sign indicates two possibilities.
First, Fantéxi genuinely wanted to resolve his grievances with Lancelot, and he had completely come to terms with it.
Secondly, Fantéxi is too shrewd, hiding all his emotions perfectly.
Lancelot couldn't determine which situation it was.
But regardless of whether it's the first or the second scenario, his approach is the same.
"I accept the gift, and I'll wipe the slate clean of my personal grudges with you, senior," Lancelot said. There wasn't really any deep-seated animosity between him and Fantéxi, just a minor misunderstanding. The fact that they personally delivered a gift and came to apologize was enough to erase any past grievances.
But his words caused a flicker of surprise and doubt to cross the depths of Fantéxi's eyes.
"Personal grudges..."
What does that mean? What about the Morgan Family?
He doesn't want to reconcile with the Morgan Family?
But why did you accept the gift?
Is this the default?
Fantéxi was filled with doubts, but on the surface he showed a look of surprise.
The two chatted for a while before Fantéxi took her leave.
Lancelot saw him off at the villa, watching his senior's straight back as he walked away, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Turning back to the living room, Lancelot opened the box containing the gift.
First came the gift from Fantéxi.
Once the box was opened, a row of 12 orange-red vials was neatly arranged, reflecting a shimmering glow under the light.
Dragon Marrow Secret Medicine a potion made primarily from the marrow of True Dragon or a dragon-type Transcendent beast, combined with numerous auxiliary ingredients. Developed by the pharmacists of the Holy Sword Research Institute, it is mainly used to improve physical attributes, with its enhancement of bone strength being particularly astonishing.
Depending on the grade of dragon marrow used, the quality of Dragon Marrow Secret Medicine varies considerably, ranging from a maximum of six stars to a minimum of only one star.
The twelve Dragon Marrow Secret Medicine before Lancelot were all three-star premium treasures, each worth hundreds of credits. Together, they were worth over a thousand credits, making them a truly valuable gift.
Even for Fanxite, a senior Student Council member, it wouldn't be easy to come up with this amount.
Nodding in satisfaction, Lancelot turned his gaze to another large gift box.
As one of the three Blood Clan families, the Morgan Family is incredibly wealthy; they certainly wouldn't be stingy with their money, would they?
Upon opening the box, a familiar device came into view.
Thin metal sheets covered with intricate patterns, dark conduits, a Rubik's Cube-like device...
"Gene Stabilizer... could it be...?"
Lancelot's eyes lit up. After examining the high-tech Rubik's Cube for a moment, he finally confirmed his suspicions.
This is actually a brand new Intermediate Gene Stabilizer.
"Incredibly extravagant!"
