Obtaining Funds (9)

"No way, is this real?" I looked at the number of zeros behind the five.

"I think so," our president gulped.

"It was all worth it!" the president of the food and agriculture research club held up his part of the cheque.

"We'll get to purchase more magical orbs," the president of mana research club had twinkling eyes.

"We can design anything we want now," a member from the design club became excited.

"Purchasing some rare flowers are nothing," a member from the decorating club happily hummed.

"Our time-space function!" I pumped my fist in the air.

"Our club is different now. We're rich," our president laughed, his eyes glued to the cheque.

"Would you like to extend our contract?" Oili passed some out to the other clubs.

"I guess it wasn't so bad," a member from the food and agriculture research club passed the contract to their president.

"A week for all this!" a mana research club member agreed.

All the other clubs left the room as they discussed how they would spend the money. I had a bright grin while pressing the button on the tablet to purchase the time-space function. My breaks would be much longer now, meaning I could game for hours without anybody noticing. The only problem was how we would continue to prevent Luke from figuring out about the club.

"What do we do now?" I turned to them.

"I have a plan," Delia raised my hopes.

"I was able to bribe the teachers with some food. The next mission will be to switch partners with the other class for a month. Maybe if Luke isn't partnered to you anymore, he won't pay attention to you during that time," she smiled.

"Really?" My eyes glittered.

"You're going to be paired with Cillian for two weeks and Henry for the other two," Delia became my lifesaver.

"In different classes?" I clasped onto her hands.

"In different classes. You and Michelle will be changing places with us," she knew how miserable we were.

"Is this ok with you Helena?" Sienna turned to Ellen.

"I'm fine, I don't mind," Ellen was to be paired with their horrible classmates.

"Thanks," I hugged Ellen to console her.

"This really means a lot to me," I almost teared up.

I was sick of living with Luke and sitting beside him for all my classes. This was also a chance to leave the school grounds during the weekends. I would finally be able to fulfill my bucket list that I made yesterday. I pulled out my bucket list to show them where I would like to go once the mission started.

"I don't mind going to those places with you," Cillian was almost an angel.

"It isn't bad," Henry seemed interested in some of the locations.

I was holding myself from jumping in the air. On the weekdays, I would be able to game my days away while on the weekends, I would travel around the first district. This was the best present anyone could give me. Feeling excited for the end of the day to come soon, I couldn't stop smiling as the teachers were one of the few who knew why I was in a good mood.

"And this concludes the next mission," Daniel announced to us during our last class before leaving us.

Daniel left us to pack our stuff as some of us would transfer to the other class. I couldn't believe this amazing mission would start from today. Delia had really outdone herself this time since I got to move my stuff out of the dorm I lived with Luke. Who knew if Luke had already installed some spells to watch over his own room?

I ran to my room to begin packing all my uniforms. I wouldn't need to take all the annoying accessories I was forced to wear every day. I happily hummed before I bumped into Luke when I was about to leave my bedroom. He didn't have to pack anything since he would live here with Delia for the new two weeks.

"Don't leave until you take these with you," he began to pack all my dresses and accessories into a suitcase.

"And remember to not skip any classes or cause trouble for Cillian," he passed me the suitcase.

"I don't need this," I tried to refuse.

"I'll walk with you to his dorm," he decided to directly give them to Cillian instead.

I sighed as I walked to the floor downstairs to where Cillian and Sienna lived. Luke knocked on the door as he waited for one of them to open it. Since Sienna was busy with packing her stuff, Cillian opened the door. Not wasting any time, Luke passed the suitcase to him, "these are all of Rika's clothes for when she goes outside. There are also all the workbooks she's currently working on after class."

"Thanks," Cillian awkwardly received the heavy suitcase from him.

"And these are all her medications in case something happens. This is for when Rika gets a fever and the rest are supplements on the days that she only eats desserts," Luke unexpectedly pulled out another case.

"Is there anything else?" Cillian accepted the case from him.

"I'll send you the rest through my marble," Luke reluctantly turned to leave.

"He's overdoing it," I had watched how thoroughly he packed everything in the suitcases.

Luke started feeding me all these supplements after the circus incident after hearing from Lucius how my body started to reject some food. Unfortunately, the supplements tasted disgusting as I chugged each of the drinks down every morning. I wondered why the people of the first district didn't consider the taste even though they were so technologically advanced.
