Never Faced Rejection.

Outside the trio's room stood Irene with some guards behind her. She had an impassive expression on her face, but the tightly closed fists of her revealed her anger.

It was past midday when they had finished questioning most of the Mercenaries, and her grandfather ordered her to find the location of this group.

Rufus had instructed her just to locate the group and come back to report him. However, she still remembered the disrespect these lowly Mercenaries had shown towards her grandfather and the one she idolized the most.

Irene looked up to Rufus since he was not only her role model but also her grandfather. She saw everything she wanted to be in Rufus.

Hence, when she graduated from the academy, she applied to be directly placed in the Silver Knights squad. She did all that so she could learn directly from her idol.
