Garcia saw 'Lude' walk out, his eyes showing a grudge he didn't bother to hide.

Since the last time Garcia had failed to capture 'Lude' and the team of meticulously trained elites were wiped out by 'Palreynold', although Professor Duyer did not overly criticize him, Garcia's position in Duyer's lab plummeted.

Due to the plummeted status, his name was not listed on the expedition to the Mystic State that Professor Duyer led himself. This had never happened before.

After he got the news, Garcia was in utterly stupefied. He knew what it represented: he will be forever moved away from the core and the authority of Duyer's lab.

It was an unacceptable fact for Garcia.

His plans for the future was to inherit Duyer's lab and the professor had hinted that to him more than once. It was because of that hope that Garcia gave up on the school and devoted himself to the lab.

And yet this had happened.

Give up and run?
