Chapter 63 Leaving Garmony For The Tournament

They were there to talk about the first steps of their new organization. Well, it was not new-new, but they had yet to make any movements, so it was new, right?

"What is this mask you are using? Is this our trademark now?" Serana asked as she got close to Damian to analyze the mask.

She still could not understand how Damian saw through that mask, but that would remain a secret.

"No, this is my mask. Anyway, we should talk about our organization," Damian said.

Hazel moved forward with her red hair moving with the cool night breeze, "is something wrong?" she asked, looking at Damian with an anxious look.

"No, don't worry about it," Damian said, moving his hand to indicate that everything was fine, "but we have to start making our moves after we return from the upcoming tournament."

Serana did not understand why the sudden move. Sure, an organization had to take some time to prepare before doing anything, but what was Damian doing this whole time?

They could not possibly know he had a system and was working his ass off — or rather, his dick off — to get the necessary Erotic Coins for his new item.

"We need to get ourselves a headquarters and start recruiting members. You know Vanessa?"

"You mean the teacher?" Serana said, recalling the name from her time in Garmony Upper School.

"Correct. She will probably join us but doesn't know my true identity. So you see, only you two know for now, and we should keep it that way. From now on, you can call me Dawn."

"Sure. But why should we wait for the tournament and not start making our headquarters right now?" Serana asked.

Damian smiled and said, "can you build a headquarters in less than a week? Yeah, I thought so."

They did not know, but Damian would soon have a lot to do during the tournament, so it was better to wait for it to end before starting to build something as grand as the headquarters of a secret organization.

"How are things going?"

When Damian asked that, Hazel moved her head, looking down, "I'm doing great. With the feeding and the passage of time, my powers are increasing. As for Hazel, she's only learning the theoretical part because she has no ability, as they called it here," Serana said.

He suspected that was the case, but Damian would soon change that, or at least try! There were many things inside his System tab, and it was not impossible to give others an ability!

Also, Damian had something in mind for Hazel, "Hazel, come close to me."

Hazel, still ashamed of being useless, slowly walked toward Damian. He did not say anything but gave her a small black substance, and Hazel gladly accepted it even though she had no idea what it was!

"May I ask what this is?" Hazel said.

She did not know what it was just by looking at it, but once her hand touched it, it was like she and the black substance were connected!

"A slime that can do many things. It is a little limited, so you can only use it to do one thing at a time, but still good enough for you to fight."

Damian knew one thing about Hazel: she had a powerful body! For some reason, she had no ability, at least not one she or Damian knew. But her body? It was more powerful than most superhumans!

Before going to Garmony, she did not know how to fight using her fists or any weapon, but she was getting the hang of it after learning for three months.

"This will be good for her!‌ She will become a great fighter with her powerful body and a tool to aid her in combat!"

It was still impossible for Damian to grant her an ability, but giving her the aid of some powerful items from his System was still within his reach.

The best part was that his Slime Ring's power did not diminish! He could give it to as many people as he wanted, but those tiny slime parts had limited power compared to the real Slime Ring.

He did not give it to Serana, though. Damian wanted that moment to be only for Hazel, as he saw how bad she felt without having anything to rely on.

"You can try it out after our meeting, but try to keep it a little low profile, or else people will want to know more about it, like from where you got it," Damian said.

Hazel nodded, and they continued their meeting, discussing where they would build the headquarters in the school's perimeter and perhaps a way to get some help with the building process.

"We will have a vacation after the tournament, and they will allow us to leave the school during that period. The best time for us to get more members and build the headquarters nearby!"

"Right. Now that you are speaking about this tournament, will you try to win it?" Serana asked.

If it were a normal occasion, then surely Damian would do anything he could to win it, but with that undercover mission Darius gave to him, he did not know if he would even leave that place alive….

"I don't know, maybe? Anyway, the meeting is over. Anything you two want to say?"

They denied it with their head, meaning there was nothing they wanted to share. So, the trio left the woods, with the two girls and Damian returning to their dorm.

The remaining week passed in the blink of an eye. Darius was personally watching since three months ago, as he was the person who would choose the ten participants in the tournament!

Yes, not all the new students would participate — that would mean a lot of people, and some who were not that great — so Darius chose the best of the best, and among those, Damian, Aurora, Magnus, and Joffrey were!

Damian used his influence to let Serana and Hazel go with them to watch the tournament, and Darius allowed it yet did not allow it to anyone else.

"There's a car waiting for us, and then we will get a plane. Let's go! Also, teacher Vanessa will come with us to help keep you in check," Darius said as he left the school with all the students who would participate in the tournament.

While entering the car, Damian had only one thought: "please, secret mission, don't let me get killed!"
