Chapter 09: Noah's Choice

For someone like her, who has always cared for her juniors, Aaron's decision undoubtedly made her very happy

"It's nothing, but... oh, I still have some things to do. You can head back first; I will come find you at dinner." After saying this, Noah left Aaron standing there and hurriedly walked out.

"I cannot ignore such a personal attack," Flora said, her eyes narrowing slightly. It was a natural shift; her originally warm and friendly expression instantly turned into one of utter indifference.

"What’s wrong, senior? You seem..." Noah's unusual behavior made Aaron feel uneasy

Oh, is this not Ms. Noah, the Executive Committee Chair? What brings you here? Never mind, a guest is a guest. What would you like, wine or juice

After coughing softly a few times, Aaron skillfully concealed the slight impulse in his heart and said with a smile, "Senior, I am here to share some good news."

In fact, without the existence of maps, outsiders can easily get lost. Therefore, each member of the student union has several copies of such maps in hand

After obtaining the map, Aaron left Flora's room in a rather disheveled state

Aaron felt that things seemed to be beyond his imagination

No matter what difficulties I encounter, I will absolutely not retreat, not only for myself but also for my predecessors

What is it, why aren't you speaking ... ... Aaron

What does she look like

Senior and the library, I have some good news to share with you

Is that so? Congratulations to you all. Hearing that his junior had passed the assessment, Noah's face broke into a sincere smile as he softly offered his congratulations

I see, I encountered a kind-hearted person. Who is it that so enthusiastically helped my junior? I should thank him later.

In the name of the blood of knights, I swear that I will wager everything I have to protect Aaron, to shield him from any harm caused by evil forces

... ...

"Aaron? Oh, are you referring to that lovely junior?" Flora said, stroking her smooth hair, looking as if she had just realized something.

When it comes to maps, even Aaron, who considers himself to have a good temper, couldn't help but complain a bit, saying that if it weren't for the kindness of others, he would still be lost.

However ... ...

What?

Upon hearing Aaron's description, Noah's expression grew increasingly severe, especially when he mentioned the juice, at which point his face turned exceptionally pale, as if he had just endured a fierce battle

This is a declaration of war, Flora... Vice President.

In this state, Aaron felt a sense of novelty, but it also stirred within him a hidden impulse to assist his seniors.

Aaron suddenly felt that his expression at that time must have been quite amusing

Unlike Flora's room, Noah's room is simply furnished. Apart from a bookshelf, a desk, and a few sofas for receiving guests, there is nothing else.

I would stake my own life; I will absolutely protect Aaron

From Noah's current demeanor, one can connect it to Flora's exclamation upon hearing Noah's name

After finishing the juice in the cup, Aaron threw the cup into the trash can and casually opened the map

The woman with flowing black hair sits leisurely in the chair, seemingly having anticipated that such an event would occur.

I have decided to join the student council and work under the guidance of my seniors. I will formally submit my application in three days

On the other side, Noah hurriedly left his room and rushed to an iron gate, pushing it open with force and barging in

Yes, she said so

This statement would certainly not deter Aaron; joining the student council is not a whim or impulsive decision, but rather a thought-out consideration after careful deliberation

After much contemplation, Aaron, unable to find clarity, left the student council tower in frustration

On the other side, Aaron was closely watching Noah's performance, and upon seeing her pale complexion, he abruptly stopped his description

"No, I'm fine," Noah said, feeling a warmth in his heart at the sight of Aaron's worried expression. He forced a smile and added, "I really am fine, you don't need to worry."

Noah quickly came to his senses, "What, what did you say?"

The Student Union Tower is a natural maze. When Noah first arrived here, he faced quite a few challenges because of it. Now, looking at the map in Aaron's hands, it is easy to imagine the kinds of situations he encountered.

Because he had not heard anyone speak for a long time, Noah involuntarily raised his head, only to find his junior standing in front of him, looking at him with a peculiar gaze, and he couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation.

"Flora, you said it was Flora." Noah suddenly stood up in a panic, and due to the excessive force, the chair immediately toppled backward, crashing to the ground with a loud bang

If I say that I have taken a liking to that guy, what will you do

Noah waved his hand to interrupt Aaron, "Let's not worry about that for now. Are you sure her name is Flora, Flora Sky?"

However, the juice in the cup is indeed very delicious

With the bloodied sword pointed at Flora, Noah spoke word by word, as if making a proclamation

For Noah, this is indeed good news. Although joining the student council is quite challenging, the experiences gained there will play an important role in his future life

Joining the student council requires undergoing a very rigorous assessment, which is even more stringent than the evaluations conducted by the college

With the experience from the last time, Aaron did not push the door with much force this time. In fact, it turned out just as he had thought; he easily pushed open the seemingly heavy door

With the help of the map, there was naturally no need to worry about this maze. Following the route on the map, Aaron easily found Noah's office.

He was still holding a cup in his hand, filled with blue, translucent juice. He recalled that he was about to reach the door, but was called back by a smiling woman, who forcefully shoved the cup into his hand

"What a crude way to put it. I merely hosted my lovely junior in my capacity as a senior. Why has it turned into a conspiracy in your words? This is nothing short of a blatant personal attack, Miss Noah"

After cautiously tasting a mouthful, Aaron thought to himself

Congratulations... you have passed the assessment. Noah quickly realized.

"Stop joking around," Noah said angrily, looking at Flora, his body trembling slightly with rage. "A cold-blooded witch like you actually cares about your juniors, what a shameless person you are"

"Senior, are you alright?" Seeing her distracted demeanor made Aaron very worried

Her long, jet-black hair cascades down to her calves like a waterfall. She always wears a subtle yet incredibly beautiful smile and enjoys hosting others. By the way, she also poured me a glass of blue juice, which is a remarkably delicious beverage. To this day, I have never tasted such a delightful juice.

Although guests are welcome, it does not seem to be a good habit to intrude into someone else's room without prior notice, does it, Miss Noah?

Aaron had never seen this side of Noah; in his perception, Noah was always very serious and earnest, as if nothing could shake her beliefs

Noah swiftly drew the cross sword from his waist, making a decisive slash through the air, and blood immediately gushed forth, slowly dripping down the elongated blade onto the ground

What was initially just a casual question left her utterly astonished by the answer she received

Although it is unclear what exactly has happened, the only thing that can be certain is that Noah's behavior has been quite unusual, especially her hurried departure, which has caused Aaron to worry even more

Perhaps I will be able to assist my seniors after I join the student council, he thought

Her appearance seems very focused, with her brows occasionally furrowing, as if she is troubled

"Senior, Senior..." Aaron called softly several times

Yes, I hunted a young earth bear together with Xia Li, obtained the crystal core from its body, and thus passed the assessment

Please come in

Flora, where are you? Come out!

After knocking on the door, Noah's voice came from inside

Why are you here

Noah's face immediately broke into a joyful smile as he nodded vigorously. He looked at Aaron with an appreciative demeanor, but his gaze involuntarily fell upon the map in Aaron's hand

The map? Someone gave it to you; it seems you have also endured quite a bit of hardship

"Don't play dumb with me, Flora. What did you do to Aaron?" Noah said rudely

At this moment, Noah was wearing the black uniform of the student council, engrossed at his desk, handling official duties with a quill pen.

After encouraging himself fiercely in his heart, Aaron confidently said to Noah: "We will not lose, senior."
