Being accepted by the majority of Malia´s group was already something to be extremely proud of, which caused Jason to smile brightly at them.
Precisely, at the same moment, they heard another voice from behind. Jason could immediately guess the owner of the voice, who ran towards them
"Sis… Jason? What are you doing here?" Greg rushed towards them immediately after he saw the two of them with the ten exchange students from Tenebris island.
Greg had faced a rather humiliating defeat through the hands of one of the first years during their special combat class seat challenge, which was still fresh in his mind. Thus, he stared at them with mixed feelings of apprehension and anger.
"Nothing special... I had something important to ask Malia and some of her classmates." Jason responded, clearly avoiding the mention of his request to join Malia´s expedition team because Greg would most likely want to join too then.
