Recognition(3)...

Jok and Pepper went past the mark once more.

"Another one and I'm out of here!" she smirked.

Jok remained silent...

*ta ta ta ta* the footsteps continued...

"Hey, relax..."
"Stop it."
"Ok..."

Pepper looked worriedly at Jok.
It must have been too much of a shock for him...

*ta ta ta ta*

Just as she opened her mouth again...

"Alright!" a megawatt grin appeared on his face.
"What?"
"I can make it in time!"
"Make what?"
"In time! Make it in time for supper!"
".."
"Yeah! If I sprint now, I will be left with 200 laps by 10pm,
and I'll just drag myself for the last 1 hour!"

*ta ta ta ta*

"Number 200, I'm off."

Pepper jogged off to the west wing, shaking her head in disbelief.

Shouldn't he be more worried about Malix?
After all, it's HIM...



*ta ta ta ta*

"So he's the one huh... I never expected to find him so quickly..."
"The 3rd floor."

Jok turned to see Malix walking on the 3rd storey's corridor.
Just beside Malix was the most powerful guy in the campus.

"So he is indeed one strong bastard..."
