Merlin used his annual privilege as the student union president to convene a meeting of all the college's tutors. This decision caused a strong reaction within the Arcane Academy. Students and teachers were talking about it, and the school corridors, outside the classrooms, and even at the tables in the cafeteria were filled with heated discussions about this breaking news.
"Have you heard? Merlin is going to hold a meeting of all tutors in the academy!" a student said excitedly in the cafeteria.
"I never thought he would dare to do such a big thing just after becoming the student union president!" another student responded, looking surprised.
"Could he be trying to change something? I heard that the controversy over fair sports in the academy has been getting worse recently." Someone speculated in a low voice.
The teachers’ reactions are equally important. Some senior mentors whispered in the conference room: "Merlin is so young, and he dares to make such a decision at this time. He is really bold."
"Is he trying to use this opportunity to fight for more rights for himself?" another teacher expressed concern.
As the date of the college-wide tutors' conference was set for three days later, the atmosphere on campus became more tense. For a time, various speculations about Merlin continued to emerge, and some people even began to study the support behind him, believing that this might be related to Yuna's influence.
During these three days, Merlin did not appear in the open space in the back mountain to manage his property. Instead, he frequently appeared in places such as the Warcraft Academy, the back garden of the Mage Tower, and the Steam and Star Alchemy Room. At this moment, he was sitting in the Alchemy Department teacher's office, having an important conversation with Teacher Harrington.
"I never thought, Merlin, that you would become the president of the student union of the Arcane Academy." Teacher Harrington handed him the brewed black tea and said with a smile, "I hope you will show mercy during the teacher evaluation at the end of next year."
Merlin smiled and responded, "I was also quite surprised. I became the student union president without knowing why, but it's a good thing for me."
Teacher Harrington looked at Merlin, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Why did you come here to see me? You can't be here to reminisce about the past, after all, you are about to hold a meeting of all tutors in the college, and you want to get my support?"
Merlin nodded seriously. He not only needed to gain the support of Mr. Harrington, but also the support of other teachers in the Alchemy Department. "Yes, I need your help. I hope Mr. Harrington can help me convince other alchemy teachers to support me."
"You think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary teacher," Teacher Harrington said modestly.
Merlin didn't buy it and retorted, "A person who has won the Golden Crucible Award and has been invited by the six empires to take charge of the alchemy workshop, is he really an ordinary teacher? Isn't this too modest?"
Harrington was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh: "Where did you know this?"
"I used the resources of the Student Union and saw it in the teacher's archives." Merlin said frankly.
"Okay, my students have asked me for help, how can I not help?" Mr. Harrington finally agreed, but he added, "But I will only try my best to persuade other teachers. As for whether they are willing to give you this face, I can't guarantee it."
Merlin stood up, smiled and said, "That's enough, thank you Mr. Harrington."
Then, Merlin left the Alchemy Department teacher's office and came to the Student Union Room of the Arcane Academy. It must be said that the Arcane Academy was really poor. The Student Union Room actually just found a relatively large classroom on the top floor of the teaching building.
At this moment, Yuna was sorting out the documents in her hands, waiting for Merlin to arrive. There were no other members in the student union room except her. Seeing Merlin coming, Yuna stood up and placed the brewed black tea in front of him, looking like a secretary.
"Senior Yuna, how are you handling your affairs?" Merlin sat down and asked.
Yuna sighed softly, a complex expression flashing in her eyes: "I have already discussed it with my father. Although he is very angry about what I did, the Royal Chamber of Commerce has been severely damaged after paying a large sum of money to the Arcane Academy, and it needs my strength to rise again, so he did not make it too difficult for me."
She continued, "However, my father brought up that ridiculous agreement again, asking me to earn back the money I paid to the Arcane Academy as soon as possible, otherwise I would be sent to the Orc Empire as a prop for a marriage alliance."
Yuna raised her hand playfully, caressing her body from top to bottom, and said with a smile: "If I really go to the Orc Empire for marriage, can my small body really withstand the orcs in heat? Junior Merlin, you have to help me."
As she spoke, Yuna pulled the chair over like a cat and stuck to Merlin's side. Merlin looked at Yuna who was leaning against him, and silently moved to the other side twice, but Yuna kept sticking to him.
"Senior, where are the other members of the student council?" Merlin asked, feeling that something was wrong with Yuna's current condition.
"The others left after they were done with their work." Yuna said lightly, but in fact, she had already driven those people away in order to have a chance to be alone with Merlin.
Ever since the two Alves brothers, Alex and Daniel, stepped down, Yuna has been the one who has the final say in the student union, and no one dares to disobey her orders.
After Merlin became the president of the student union, he had only met a handful of student union members, most of whom he couldn't remember their names, except for Daniel and Yuna. The former even quit the student union directly after Merlin took office.
However, these are not important. Merlin knew clearly that he wanted to build a student union of Ichinoseki Hall. From now on, he would issue absolute authority and orders, and the realization of all this would depend on Yuna's support. He knew that Yuna had the greatest influence in the student union today, but fortunately, he didn't know what had happened to Yuna, but she actually trusted and supported him unconditionally.
Is this the buff bonus for being a savior?
"Yuna, is the Royal Chamber of Commerce really short of money now?" Merlin asked as he slowly sipped the hard-to-swallow black tea.
"Of course we are short of it," Yuna replied, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, "The compensation gold coins have directly damaged the vitality of the Chamber of Commerce, and many years of planning have been ruined. The nobles who support the Chamber of Commerce have even started to make some small moves behind the scenes."
Merlin smiled slightly and said, "I have a plan to make a fortune and I want to cooperate with you. Are you willing?"
Yuna's eyes flashed with curiosity, "Are those delicacies and milk teas made by you? This is indeed an industry with great potential. Would you like me to join in?"
Merlin shook his head and said mysteriously, "It's not about food and milk tea, but another opportunity to make a fortune. It depends on whether you are willing or not."
Yuna's heart was beating fast. Although she didn't know what Merlin wanted to do, she felt an urge to lose her usual calm and rationality towards this man.
"Of course I am willing. Although I don't know how you plan to do it, I am looking forward to your plan."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely make you a ton of money." Merlin's tone was filled with confidence.
"Then I'll look forward to it very much." Yuna smiled slightly, her heart full of anticipation for future cooperation.
