On the day of the midterm, Kanae still spent her noontime in the office after her exams because of work. She knew that she and her teammates would do an intensive training once the midterm was over, so she spent her time in the office for now. Aside from the work, she also enjoyed the other three's company very much.

"President, I won't be working for some time starting this Monday,

" Kanae informed Kevin.

When the other two heard what Kanae said, their faces turned into that of misery. The amount of time Kevin descended into a bad mood increased by leaps and bounds without Kanae here. They felt extreme torture whenever Kevin was in a bad mood because they would experience a lot of things they didn't want.

"Is there anything important?

"

"I have something that I need to do,

" Kanae answered. In truth, it was a training session with her teammates, but she couldn't say that out loud to him.

"Are you skipping school too?

"

"Yes.

"

Kevin nodded his head.

"Take care of yourself.

"

"Thank you, President.

"

After Kanae left, the other two looked towards their president with watery eyes. They couldn't believe that their leader had just decided something like that so suddenly. They wanted to protest. Without Kanae, they would work overtime too much.

Even though Kanae has only worked here for several months, they have already gotten used with her being here. Of course, it didn't mean that they completely trusted her with their real work, but it was better with her staying around the office.

Kevin looked towards the other two.

"There's an offer for a contract with the big company outside the city, right? Give him a call.

"

"Yes, Boss.

"

Since he could see that the other two didn't like him working here during the time Kanae was not here, he might as well go strike a business deal. Of course, this should be a big deal that would make him busy.

"Boss, are we going to skip school too?

" Mike asked.

Kevin flicked a glance back. Seeing that cold and indifferent gaze, Mike knew that Kevin wanted them to skip school too. It was easy for him to get permission as they needed to work.

"Also, arrange a trip to the Zone Clan territory. I heard our men were having some problems.

"

"Yes, there are some disagreements and the Souhon Clan has been trying to conquer the territory from their side.

"

"It just means we have to work quickly, right?

" Kevin asked in a colder tone.

"Yes, Boss. We'll finish more quickly.

"

Neo started to arrange Kevin's work while Mike leaned back on the cupboard. From this aspect, Kanae's departure was quite timely. For now at least, they could spare more time to focus on their clan rather than on the work in the office.

While the three of them were busy discussing their clan's matters, Kanae got a call from her teammate.

"Why are you calling this late, Oro?

"

"Rei, there's a job for Fiore Group and this job is quite special,

" Jason answered. His hand was still busy typing on the keyboard while he talked to Kanae.

"What job?

"

"The Ryukalin Clan is offering us a job.

"

"What?

" Kanae was stunned. Based on what she knew, there was no way the Ryukalin Clan would need their help this quickly. They have numerous experts, so there was no need for them to ask for help from outsiders.

"What do they want from us?

"

"There's a problem at the port. They got attacked, but their men can't respond quickly because most of them are busy dealing with the territory in the north. They want us to offer a hand.

"

Kanae thought about it. It was indeed true that the north side of the city was now in a constant state of war as the Ryukalin Clan tried to take the territory that previously belonged to the Zone Clan. Although the clan head and the young master were still there, they were not strong enough to face the others.

"The Ryukalin Clan is quite bold.

"

"They used some underhand methods to avoid conflict. Anyway, do you want to accept the job? They pay is quite great and I believe you were quite close to the port.

"

"Not really, I need more than one hour to reach the place.

" At this time, Kanae has reached her home and changed her clothes. She was getting ready for the job.

"I'm near the place,

" Tommy interjected.

"I should be able to reach there in less than half an hour.

"

"Then you better hurry. They're in a stalemate in that place. I'm also heading there,

" Jason replied to the Ryukalin Clan, stating that they would head towards the place as fast as they could.

Kanae moved to the Black Street and spotted a motorbike gang. She approached them.

"I need a ride. I can pay you a lot.

"

One of the men pointed to his motorcycle.

"Get in, where do you want to go?

"

"The beach in the east.

"

"Sure.

"

She never hesitated to use money. Of course, the money would need to be paid back by the client. After all, this was used for the job, so they needed to reimburse incurred expenses aside from the initial payment.

"Rei is ruthless to the client,

" Tommy commented. They could hear the conversation between Kanae and the man clearly.

"She's smart, unlike you,

" Shiro added.

"I'm heading there too, but I'll stop in the middle to find a good place to snipe.

"

"Sure.

"

This was already a common occurrence. Shiro never got close with their target location as it would make it harder for him to stay safe. Although there might be some exceptions, this was their normal approach.

Before long, Tommy arrived at the port. He looked towards the stacks of shipping containers where he could hear the faint sound of gunshots.

"They are using guns in the container port. Where are you, Rei, Oro?

"

"I'm one minute away,

" Kanae answered calmly.

Tommy was stunned when he heard Kanae's answer. He silently moved towards the area and looked towards the guys shooting around him.

"I can't differentiate between enemies and friends.

"

He walked a bit when he saw a man approaching him with a gun raised at his head. He was not sure whether this man belonged to the Ryukalin Clan or not, so he merely knocked away the muzzle and kicked the other party.

From behind the man, Kanae appeared and used her sword to strike him from behind.

"Rei! What if he's part of the Ryukalin Clan?

"

"Their members are wearing their badges, the dragon emblem,

" Kanae looked towards Tommy with bewilderment.

"Don't tell me that you don't know about this.

"

Tommy scratched his head. He truly didn't know.

"Talk later, we have to finish this fight.

"
