"Damian Valcor hasn't appeared in the academy for months now. And the Student Council is filled with unworthy people who have also disappeared for the past few days."
Her blue eyes swept across the gathered students.

"She's really claiming the position outright?"
"The core Mafia members haven't appeared for days either. Edrin, Ronan, Lysa, all of them just vanished."

"It seems the Mafia's days are really over this time."
