The female student council president was stunned.
The name of the Mystical Side organization she remembered did not include this one.
Before the female student council president could open her mouth to ask, Jason continued—
“In the darkness, we harbor the light!”
“All is illusion, all is permitted!”
“The long night is coming, and from this moment on, I shall stand watch, eternal…”
Mixed with the true Night Watchers’ phrases and some other words he recalled, Jason blurted out an oath.
It was the Prus Family that they were truly clashing with.
Jason subconsciously thought of the drained lake that had been transformed into the second competition arena, and then, his eyes narrowed as he suddenly thought of the gas explosion incident reported in a corner of the newspaper.
It must have been a disguise for the rivalry.
Otherwise, such a frequency of gas explosions would be too frequent.
As for the mutual victories and defeats?
This sudden change of attitude came with eagerness.
Clearly, the situation was not favorable for the Prus Family.
With several pieces of valuable information, Jason continued to maintain his composure and slowly said,
“I did not come for the ‘Ghost Squad’.”
“It was merely an accident that I encountered Giselle.”
“Only then did those events unfold.”
The girl student council president smiled again upon hearing information that matched her own investigation.
As a member of the ‘Night Watcher’ organization, Jason of course had no ties to Giselle—it was just an accident, a kind-hearted Giselle that led Jason, a ‘Night Watcher’, to lend a helping hand.
This once again proved the ‘Night Watcher’s’ proceedings.
As for not coming because of the ‘Ghost Squad’?
She believed that too.
The people from the ‘Mystical Side’ who came here couldn’t have possibly come for the ‘Ghost Squad’.
That legendary, supposedly non-existent secret treasure.
“Is the ‘Night Watcher’ also interested in the legendary treasure, the ‘Starry Sky Chanted Name’?”
“As a member of the Chen Xi Family, we have always been searching, a search that could be traced back to when St. Mungo’s Academy was still known as St. Paul’s Church School.”
“Since my ancestor, Jimmy Pruss, started it, to this day, a full three hundred years have passed, but nothing has been found,” said the student council president, taking a deep breath.
“In fact, my great-grandfather gave up on such a search and instead shifted to better managing the family business.”
“If it hadn’t been for the ‘Silver Federation’ stirring up this incident, our family would have almost forgotten that we ‘owned’ such a treasure.”
In her words, the girl student council president had a self-mocking smile.
Although the student council president did not disclose what the Prus Family had gone through in their search for this treasure, her expression said it all.
However, Jason’s attention remained on the secret treasure.
‘Starry Sky Chanted Name’!
Just the name sounded delicious!
It made him subconsciously think of the ‘Starry Splendor’ bestowed upon him by the old lord.
It was just a question of whether to consume it directly?
Or perhaps to steam it?
Suppressing the urge to swallow his saliva, Jason used his words as a cover.
“But my mission is to search for the ‘Starry Sky Chanted Name’, please understand.”
“This is also why I came to Newdeth City.”
Jason appeared sincere.
“After all, it is a rumored treasure that can transcend everything.”
The student council president nodded her head, and then, she changed the topic.
“However, it once belonged to the Chen Xi Prus Family, although we have now given up on it, this fact still exists. I will not stop you from searching, but I hope you, as a ‘Night Watcher’, can abide by the rules of the Chen Xi Prus Family.”
“As long as it doesn’t go against my principles, I am happy to adhere,” Jason replied.
“I have a very important clue here. I wonder if you, as a ‘Night Watcher’, would like to hear it?”
“Of course, this will require reciprocal exchange.”
“We are already in opposition to the ‘Ghost Squad.’ You can exchange it with the heads of ‘Ghost Squad’ members, or if you are not adept at fighting, you can also trade with secret techniques or rare materials,” said the student council president, nodding her head.
Secret techniques, rare ingredients for exchange?
Jason immediately gave a positive answer.
“I choose the former.”
