While Raymond and Peter walked back, a few students gathered around Cedric. They had been watching the earlier exchange and were clearly curious about what had happened.
"Boss, did that guy offend you somewhere?"
Cedric paused and took another look at Raymond. His eyes narrowed slightly as he remembered his father, Duke Valen, speaking to him before he came to Zenith Academy.
"Cedric, I am sure you will encounter someone of Blanks there. I want you to crush the Blanks. Those arrogant fools really think they can ascend high up into the sky as they wish, but I want you to crush them."
Cedric's eyes narrowed for a moment as he remembered those words. He then nodded firmly.
"Yes!"
"Then should we create trouble?"
Cedric stared at the group for a moment before answering.
"Yes. Make sure they are eliminated easily, but don't target everyone. That guy Kael seems to be a hot-headed fool. Concentrate on him."
"As you wish, boss."
