Chapter 264: Aftermath
"What is going on?"
"The student councils?"
"Look. There are teachers coming here as well."
The students were confused and approached the scene carefully, feeling the fluctuation of Ena coming from that building.
"Is that Flora?"
"Noelle is also fighting."
"Why are they attacking Axel?"
"Is it because they don\'t like him they want to eliminate him? But I thought the rest of the student council members don\'t like Flora\'s decision as well."
They became even more confused until a teacher came to them.
"Don\'t worry. Everything is fine. It turns out there is a traitor among the students. Look over there." The teacher pointed at Lovelia. "She is using her power to record everything as evidence. She also has evidence regarding Axel Lotterl being a traitor.
"If not for the student council, he would have kidnapped Nathan, which might help the terrorist organization. They\'re trying to capture him and interrogate him right now."
"What? He was the one behind all the incidents."
"Then, the laboratory too?"
"The kidnapping?"
"Does that mean Flora has been using that propaganda to lure him out?"
"Does she know everything from the beginning?"
The students were shocked. They might have misunderstood Flora. Considering everything she had done for the academy, it wouldn\'t be weird if Flora had known that Axel was the traitor from the beginning.
Misunderstanding her was their fault. If they trusted her more, this wouldn\'t have happened. They could even help her.
"But what happened to the kidnapped students?"
"Them? They\'re fine. The student council will handle the rest."
"Really?!"
The students cheered up. They truly had to apologize to Flora.
Little did they know, everything was arranged by Nathan. Obviously, there had to be a witness that they had done a good job, especially Nathan.
That was why Selena\'s role was to bring Serafina into the scene.
"Is this enough?" Selena asked.
Sera nodded. "Yes. I have always thought that we won\'t be able to find them. Still, he not only surpassed my expectations, but he has gone beyond my imagination. To think a single man can cause this much chaos."
Selena nodded. "Anyway, if you know this, you can report to the Pope."
Sera squinted her eyes. "Why do I feel you have a hidden intention?"
"I don\'t." Selena shrugged while muttering inwardly, \'Just go back and tell that your mission is done and never come back to the academy.\'
Sera sighed. "It seems I will be busy for a while. We have to check whether there is another spy within the academy. The two supporting Axel are also suspicious. I guess I will end up helping you. Or is this his plan as well?
I wonder what the extent of his plan is? He makes me more curious about him."
Selena didn\'t say anything, but it was clear that the Ashton family would be panicking after this. At the same time, she was asking the same thing. \'Is this really the extent of his plan?\'
…
After capturing Axel, Flora checked on Nathan while saying, "Hahaha. I don\'t know what to say anymore. I love playing tricks on people, but I have never thought you would be the one playing tricks on me, Nathan. Are you sure you don\'t want to join the student council again? You can be the vice president, you know?"
"Spare me the hassle. You should have known that I never like doing all that formal stuff."
"You have to be prepared for such a thing. In the future, you will definitely become a noble. Are you still not going to accept after knowing that?" Flora asked.
Nathan shook his head. "If I have to do it at that time, I will do it. However, not right now. Let me enjoy my peaceful life."
"You call this peaceful? You\'re usually the one coming for the trouble. You sure are aware of that, right?"
"Do you think I will do it without any goal in mind?" Nathan shook his head helplessly. This time, he did it for two reasons. The first one was Selena while the second one was Evelyn.
This was a kind of test from Evelyn since she invited him because of his brain. He had to produce results to make the Sleeping Garden trust him.
Of course, Evelyn and Bella were watching everything. They were responsible for taking care of everything that didn\'t go according to his plan.
"Fine. Let\'s consider it true. Anyway, good job." Flora patted Nathan\'s shoulder.
"So, do I get compensation or reward from doing all this?" Nathan asked.
"I will think about it. You have caused a lot of mess in the academy, you know?"
"But the result is there. Besides, I have made sure nothing harmful or important is being destroyed." Nathan shrugged.
"Fine. I\'ll consider it properly. Or should I just make Selena the vice president? This will be a good learning experience for her, and I don\'t think even the Ashton family will dare to act against the vice president of our council."
"Will others reject it?" Nathan asked.
"Once this problem is settled, my reputation will not only be restored but also increase. They shouldn\'t really object to it. Of course, it will take a month or two to process it and she might be challenged for that position. But if she uses this position to make more connections to nobles or other influences, it\'s going to be good for you, right?"
Nathan nodded. "Alright. Let\'s do that."
"Sure. Even though I want to express my thanks, I think I should prepare for your funeral right now."
"Funeral?" Nathan raised his eyebrows, not understanding what she was talking about.
Flora only pointed to the side as Selena and Vivian approached them, their faces filled with anger. It seemed he would be punished for putting himself in danger.
"Every choice has a price." Nathan sighed.
