[center][h3][color=8493ca]Student President Yoshino Tsugumi[/color][/h3][/center] [center][img] http://i.imgur.com/8yg5V3P.gif[/img][/center] [hr] The concerns of the other students were nothing new to Yoshino. She predicted that some of them would no doubt be visiting during her office hours soon for the sole sake of complaining about the rigid school system. Said hours were often spent with the Student President calmly explaining what was and wasn’t feasible in changing the curriculum. It was just another day at Purple Crown Academy in all honesty and Yoshino was preparing her mindset for the meetings to come, even as she approached the auditorium’s stage now. There would be files to fill out for students visiting the infirmary and medical orders to distribute but it was all work she had done before and would continue to do so now. Now, it was no surprise to see her relatively calm as she stepped up to the main podium, ushering the hushes of those all around her. Even if there were some students currently absent, her voice would be broadcast all over via the chips in the back of everyone’s heads. Thus, her words would reach the likes of all the students. [color=8493ca]“Greetings my fellow peers. We are gathered here today for a public safety announcement concerning recent development in Deep Ground Online,”[/color] she began, knowing that would catch quite a few people’s attentions. It certainly caught Maribel’s along with the rest of the Colored Kings. And yes, even Chiyo raised an eye, already predicting that this had to do with the Corpse Collector of some kind. And indeed that was very much the case as Yoshino continued with, [color=8493ca]“The renegade and solitary player only known as the Corpse Collector has once again stolen funds and treasures from each Colored Guild. Most, if not all of you, have already been informed of this news by your Guild leaders. However, that is not why we are gathered here today. We have come together once more because my client has decided to offer up a reward to the Guild who has successfully captured or defeated Corpse Collector.”[/color] A reward? That sparked the start of excited murmurs among the students as each of them glanced between one another. Michael leaned back in his seat, wondering what sort of game the Black King was playing at. Good old Kenji, or as others knew him, Verdant Grin, chuckled at how people were actually falling for what he considered more spouted bullshit. And still, Maribel and Chiyo held their expressions to themselves, waiting for Yoshino to finish her speech. [color=8493ca]“To the Guild that accomplishes this mission, the Ebony Strykers will consider as an ally and share all profits. Furthermore, the Black King herself has stated that she will personally make the Avatar who brings down Corpse Collector a Level 9 Player.”[/color] There was the kicker. There were the happy gasps of surprise and bewilderment that Yoshino knew would ensure Corpse Collector’s downfall. Whether it was actually possible for Moon Rider to make someone into a Level 9 was a little skeptical, but then again the Ebony Stryker’s leader was always shrouded in mystery. Besides, it couldn’t be too difficult with Retsu at her side, right? [color=8493ca]“That is all for now. Please, continue on with your daily schedules and proceed with your classes as usual. Thank you,”[/color] Yoshino finished, walking off the stage and forward towards her office. Yes, things were progressing quite smoothly.
