mission 1
In Citizen's Welfare Tower, citizens rent several floors as work offices from the government. It has a first-class security system, and everyone who tries to get into this building has to have a special invitation, which means it isn't easy to sneak in.
The commercial company thinks this building is the best place for them to dig gold, even though the rent is crazily high, but still have a lot of companies want to rent a small office here. Especially, when you stay near officials, you might be lucky to hear one or two juicy things that can help you make money.
But there is a secret in this building, that only the government knew.
The most famous agent group is located in this building, and they are hiding in the basement even the blue blueprint did not show there were more floors built under the ground. As an official partner of the government, the News is always captivated by their missions, most of the citizens think they are just some random lucky soldiers who just retired from the military, and coincidentally, those power workers need hands to solve those 'political' problems.
With the news exposing their mission to the public, citizens treat them as a hero with a price. People can easily access the web page to ask them for help. Satirically, even heroes understand their prices, because they weren't retired from the military, they were built to be a mercenaries.
Nuée is the name of this special group.
They recruit children from their academy, only the best students have a chance to apply for mentor-mentee projects.
Now, commander-in-chief of nuée Teron Walter holding a welcoming ceremony for new interns.
"Well, to the 35th trainees of the Human Academy, nice to meet you, I am Teron Walter. Thank you all very much for applying for this internship at our company, all of you are outstanding graduates. I'm sure you have heard enough details in school. So, If I repeat again, it would be too long and too annoying, I'm sure that you all know once you step on this floor, it means you already decided your future paths. Forget about those boring rules to make it simple. Everyone will be rewarded with a huge amount of money for their hard work. However, I want you to remember one thing that is your life is valuable. I want you to remember and keep it in your hearts. Now, please find your mentor as soon as possible."
When Walter finished his speech, Interns clapped their hands and every clap sounded like they had a rehearsal before, well being like an army, clapped loudly, rhythmically, and cheered for Walter.
"As usual, his speech is boring as hell, can't he find some more beautiful language to cheer our new birds up?"
Vic Miller, deputy commander-in-chief sneers behind Walter, she can't control herself not to roll her eyes. Zanoah Aquilino, Operations Commander stands next to Miller, when he hears what Miller says, he can't hold his smile anymore.
"Since that's Sir.Walter's style, maybe next time you should take the stage and make a powerful speech to inspire our new birds, Madam.Miller?"
"Shut up, you little shit, if that bald old man heard what you say, I will not be the only one who punishes you, and so does he."
"I will keep your kind words in mind."
Vic Miller glared at him and felt uncomfortable staying in this room, leaving Zanoah Aquilino here.
Most interns still stay in this conference room, they exchange their contact codes and hold the file in their hands, when they finish their basic social interaction, some of them move to the next destination which means it's time for them to find their own mentor.
Elio Kishi opened his file with an excited face, but when he read the name of his mentor he became silent for a moment.
"Can't believe they only print a name in this paper, and how on earth with this little information they think printing it on A4 paper is appropriate? ?"
One intern who wears glasses is amused by Elio.
"That old bald commander seems like a formalism guy. Hey, just check your pad, backstage already put all the materials in this correspondence pad."
"Thanks, mate, um, Donnie García, right?"
"Well, I haven't introduced myself, but you already know everyone's name. Right? Mr. Kishi, the valedictorian of our academy, and by the way you can call me Donnie, we're the same age."
Donnie politely shows his hand to Elio, and Elio shake Donnie's hand without hesitation, just first sight, Elio already think he and Donnie can be good friends.
"I'm so flattered, Donnie, just call me Elio. Well, I have to say you are so much more famous than me, I don't think there is anyone in the school who hasn't heard of Donnie García's name, since that well-known event. I don't want to brag, but I've also recorded all the names and faces of everyone in this room in my brain."
Elio softly touches his head, his smooth movement even though it looks a little bit arrogant, Donnie still thinks he is funnier than his imagination.
"Oh, that event? I never regret doing that, he's an instructor but he is still an asshole. People don't like corporal punishment, if he is right then I would take it. Ok, just forget about my old history. I mean, Elio your memory is not less impressive than Evelyn's, don't tell me you are also an AI. It would break my heart."
Donnie grabs his own shirt, his painful expression looks like his heart was broken by Elio, Donnie is exaggerated but it makes Elio smile. Elio resists his urge to punch his new little friend because he was compared with super AI Evelyn, but Elio denies it immediately.
"No, no, don't compare me with Evelyn, good memory is all I got."
The secretary notices interns' chatting gets noisier, he makes a warning noise from his throat, and everybody stands straight, back to silent.
"Now, this room has another meeting to be held, please find your own mentor as soon as possible."
Within 30 seconds, Everyone goes out of the room, their bodies tense as a rock, moving like a soldier, no one dares to make a sound.
Outside, Elio and Donnie check the sectors they have been assigned on their pads.
Suddenly, Donnie makes a noise of dissatisfaction.
"Shit! I heard there was a disciplinary punishment, but why was I assigned to this boring place? Where did you assign Elio? Damn! That's too unfair! Wait a minute, your mentor is Mio Adrian?"
"What? It's true! I can't believe my mentor is Ms.Adrian! She has a success rate of 99%, she's my mentor! No, I remember that Ms.Adrian doesn't recruit mentees."
Donnie pats Elio's shoulder, he already knows what is going to happen, and Donnie wants to pray for his new friend, because as Elio had said, Mio Adrian is one of the finest agents of Nuée, and her successful rate is extremely high, students in Human Academy always think Nuée just want to build a brand to sale their agent with higher price.
Only students who were selected for this project have a chance to watch the mission record of first-class agents.
Mio Adrian is a Valkyrie, with a remarkable history of killing and protection, and her efficiency in preventing accidents. Every record of her is spotless, but she is not perfect.
There is one mission she felt, she lost her mentor in that mission, and people who work in Nuée know, and this is the reason why she wouldn't accept any new mentee.
Now, Elio can't believe he has a chance to work under her guidance, but firstly, Elio becomes afraid, He has an instinct telling him, that Mio Adrian won't easily accept him.
"Ew, I think the goddess is playing with you, you are holding the biggest prize in Nuée's little project, but it seems like your luck is ending. Because she hasn't accepted any mentee for at least 8 years? Hey, Don't be upset, you still can join my Frankenstein project."
"Since Nuée's policy is to obey the order, I don't think Ms.Adrian will follow. Gosh, Think about if I have to spend a year here without a mentor, I might fail this mentor-mentee project!!! Hell no!"
"Or? Do you want to switch with me? I'm fine without guidance."
Donnie smug a bit, Elio just wanted to punch his cocky face, what kind of thing was Donnie calculating, Elio understood.
"No, screw you, and thank you my dear new friend."
Donnie can't believe Elio rejust his tempting suggestion, he keeps chasing Elio so desperately, but Elio keeps walking.
