Chapter 1940  Yuan Foundation JODE Academy

1940  Yuan Foundation JODE Academy

"Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you all for coming to this special occasion which represented the growth of the Joint Organisation for the Demon Exorcists." Chancellor Ma Ge said as he stood at the centre of the stage with a rather majestic looking podium that would have cost thousands in real life. "The past year had been a rough year for many especially those who had been hit by the incidents from the Banned Emperor Terrorists. While it is not our jurisdiction to pursue and persecute them due to the nature of our job, these terrorists had been using demons and monsters as part of their arsenal to disrupt the peace and safety of our cities." "This had never been true where there was a recent disruption in Italy that we cooperated with the Vatican Church to annihilate a series of demons together that might have been purported by the Banned Emperor Terrorists." "This unspoken agreement to come together and fight against a common threat had never rang ever more true as we all had seen the atrocities these terrorists were able to wreck with their demons. Regardless of the scale, the fact that these terrorists continued to use demons to disturb the balance of our peace, there was a need for JODE to ensure that we are equipped to counter them."

"While prevention of such terrorist activities is the best possible route we can take, this is a job and discussion that we might participate in in the future. Our job, especially the people we have employed here is for one reason. To grow and cultivate untapped potential and talents into a bulwark against such future threats."

"That was the reason why the joint organisation had decided that in order to make sure our most aspiring and youngest could achieve the best. We have unanimously agreed to open this particular school. Yes, we had made the most disheartening decision to close down not just several but many JODE training centres and even establishments overseas which some of our past fellow Demon exorcists had once dedicated their entire lives to make happen." "But in return, I will assure my past comrades that the creation of this dimensional instance was not a waste of their efforts." Ma Ge said as the screen behind him started to change and the video wall that Jin was so proud of mimicking started to show portrait pictures of all the students that had been enrolled into the school.

"All these people that you see on this video wall are the prospective JODE Demon Exorcists that would be joining us in this school. We will be combining different levels and reassessing all the students that had joined into our new learning curriculum. So to those students who had been reassigned to a higher or lower 'year', please be aware that this is for the sake of your learning."

When Ma Ge said that the students who were in the auditorium got a big shocker and so did the media. Was this an announcement you had to make to the public? Probably not since this was an internal school issue and yet Ma Ge decided to say this on the record.

"For those who had been reassigned to the lower year, we would like to publicly say that we regretted that our teaching methods had not been effective for you and thus would need you to stay back for a year or two to let you relearn your basics again. Of course, this was not without compensation. If you have managed to return back to your current year through a series of tests and exams in less than a year, we will recognise your effort accordingly by dismissing the school fees that you incur to spur you further." "Such expenses would be borne under the Yuan Foundation which had been run by this district's most well known non political figure. Grand Headmistress Yuan." Ma Ge said and a light was shone towards Grandma Yuan's seat and so did the Magic Eyes. "And speaking of Grand Headmistress Yuan, she had relentlessly fought in the frontlines as well as the backline to bring this school up. That is why all of you had been waiting for the name of the school to be revealed and we had decided that with all the work Grand Headmistress Yuan had done, the JODE organisation decided to bestow the name of Grand Headmistress Yuan as the school's name." When Ma Ge said that, two backstage crew brought over a covered long plank to the front of the stage and the chancellor came down from his podium to reveal it. When he pulled the red cloth away, it revealed the following words

"Yuan Foundation JODE Academy." "What game are they playing at?" Jin wondered as he knew that while Grandma Yuan was a veteran in JODE for the longest time ever, she never had the respect of the organisation. While some do acknowledge her, most have kept her from doing anything significant. The change in attitude came not during the proposal of the school instance either since they wanted to let Jin be the Grand Headmaster of the school instance.

But ever since Jin came back from the Synthesis World, their attitude was so different that it had made him very puzzled and to some point, confused too. It was like a nagging mystery that was begging itself to be solved but Jin had been so busy that he knew of the occurrences but did not bother to prod it until now when he finally got some space to think.

"While the System does not have extensive knowledge of the change of attitude, the System believed that it had to do with the fact that User is getting recognition to be the new and upcoming Royal Panda Zodiac Clan Head."

"What does that have to do with Grandma Yuan?" "Has User forgotten about the incident where Ex System User Ming had gone against the Royal Zodiacs and subsequently turned back time?" The System asked.

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with Grandma Yuan? If memory had been reset, they should not even know about Grandma Yuan's condition." "The memory might have been reset but Ex Sub System User Yuan did not. She might have done something in lieu for Ex System User Ming to a certain extent that it jeopardised her position with the Royal Zodiacs."

"Hmmm…." Jin was not buying that theory.

"The next possibility is that her attitude towards the Royal Zodiac had changed and she had been wary of them for the longest time possible. Aversion was part of her routine and the Royal Zodiacs had noticed the cold shoulder." "That …I think I can accept," Jin replied and thought that Grandma Yuan might have taken a more active role in JODE making the Chancellor and the rest of JODE management warm up to her.

"And to add on, the relationship between you and Ex Sub System User Yuan is more likely to have increased the chances of her being in this position and being supported." The System added and Jin laid back within the crowd to think about what the System had said. He thought about what the Royal Zodiac Clans were really up to. Are they really willing to let go of their existing powers and allow a new upcoming Royal Zodiac Clan to come in uninterrupted? He knew that the Royal Rat Zodiac did not like the idea of him becoming official because of what he had done to his people. But at the same time, he also remembered how the Royal Tiger Zodiac Head had changed.

"No one could change their hatred that easily. What exactly happened?" Jin wanted to think about it further but 'mandatory' claps from the audience broke his train of thought. Apparently, the Chancellor had decided to throw the carrot out as well. The bad news of those students had been delivered and now he gave the good ones where he stated that those who were deemed to be proficient enough to be in the next level would be rewarded monetarily too.

"While some of you might think that throwing money to the problem is not solving the crux of the issue but please remember that this monetary reward is to spur them forward. To encourage them that the organisation is aware of the effort to them." Ma Ge replied.

"But now I guess you have enough of me and I will give your attention ad time to the Assistant to the Grand Headmistress Ms Claire to tell you more about this school instance which we had been keeping secret for the longest time ever." Ma Ge said and the seemingly ordinary video wall suddenly started to move and change so much that the audience realised that this was no ordinary screen they were looking at.

"This is..!" The reporters were astonished when they saw the video that was playing right in front of them had surrounded the entire half of the auditorium that it bewildered them as if it was real. Many of the reporters already could see this was a copy of the Las Vegas unique attraction but to see it in action was entirely a different experience.

It felt too real.
