Silvaria World Inst.i.tute, villa area…

　　The students all wanted to know which villa housed 3 top 10 rankers who fought like true champions in the Grand Tournament.

　　More importantly, they wanted these newcomers to join their factions. Last time they checked, these newcomers aren't officially in any faction.

　　Even the lesser-known factions are vying for these newcomers. If luck would have it and the newcomers joined, they would rise up and be on par with the 12 great factions, even surpa.s.sing them. Plus, they only needed to attract the attention of one of the newcomers.

　　Wu Yan's mansion has been bombarded by all of these kiss-a.s.ses. His doormat is also all worn out from the number of guests they needed to entertain.

　　A lot of them came here and flew by the seat of their pants. It's very annoying for Hinagiku, Mikoto, and the others who had to talk to them.

　　10 guests a day would be their limits. They are very close to freaking out at the number of people coming here to beg them to join their factions.

　　5 minutes a session seemed like an eternity when you don't even want to talk.

　　In the end, Hinagiku and the others just bolted the doors shut. They used an excuse that Wu Yan who is the master of this villa needed some time to heal up and need to do so in silence. They finally got the peace they wanted, but, at a cost, they can't go out as often as before.

　　Hinagiku and Mikoto drank the red tea Ikaros deftly prepared. They exchanged looks and they sighed.

　　"This feels like a h.e.l.l of some sort…"

　　Mikoto bitterly laughed. Mikoto didn't like this feeling of being confined inside the house, there are only so many topics she can share with the other girls before she gets bored.

　　"I think it should end soon…"

　　Hinagiku said in an uncertain manner. She put down the teacup on a nearby table and she continued.

　　"Those people are just trying their luck, they wanted to see if they can entice us into joining their factions. They should get the hint soon that we are not interested at all."

　　"This 'Soon' needs to come faster!"

　　Mikoto yelled.

　　"Even if you say that, I am not sure if I can speed it up for you."
