Italy, Portofino, Splendid Hotel.
Caesar was in his suite, holding a glass of champagne. He used his fingers to open a gap on the wooden shutters and looked out. His suite faced the Genenaya Bay and had the best view in the hotel. At this moment, amidst the falling leaves, a black Rolls-Royce car went up the mountain, entered the hotel's black iron gate, and stopped in front of a small building not far away.
"Then who is it?" Caesar looked at the car that was driving up and asked the butler behind him.
"The fifth board member, a stunning lady.”The butler whispered behind Caesar.
The driver opened the door and covered the top edge of the door frame with his hand. A pair of golden high heels stepped steadily on the ground. Her slender and capable calves had a soul-stirring beauty.
The woman got out of the car and was indeed stunning. She was only in her 20s, but she had the eyes of a 30-year-old. She wore the makeup of a European lady, a black veil, an expensive dress, and a fur vest. After looking around coldly, she walked into the small building with her head held high.
Caesar whistled." She is indeed an amazing woman. She is young but mature, dignified and enchanting. More importantly, she is very rich.”
"Young Master, don't say such things casually. It doesn't suit your status.”The butler shook his head behind Caesar.
"A graceful lady is a gentleman's match." Caesar shook his head and took a sip of champagne.
The board of directors of Kassel Academy, the world's largest Dragon-Slaying Secret Party meeting, and Caesar was invited to attend this meeting.
For a student, this was definitely a supreme honor.
Downstairs, a young lady named Lisa, who looked like a rich lady, greeted Angor warmly. Then, the two of them walked into the hotel hand in hand.
"When will the meeting start?" Caesar asked with a wine glass in his hand.
"I'm not sure. Sometimes it's ten minutes, and sometimes it's even a few days.”
"I want to sleep for a while. Just wake me up when the meeting starts.”Caesar put down his glass and turned to walk into the bedroom.
Behind him, the butler lowered his head humbly and watched his young master leave.

There was only one chair left at the end of the conference table.
It was a dark meeting room with a small window high up in the sky. It was a place where ancient monks practiced asceticism.
Caesar looked around at the people at the table, nodded slightly, and sat at the bottom.
"Let me introduce you, esteemed board members. This is our 'A' class, the well-deserved elite among the current students, Caesar Gattuso.”Headmaster Angers extended his hand towards Caesar.
There was a polite round of applause at the table.
"I think our 'A' class students must be feeling strange right now, right? Why would they let a student like you sit in on such an important meeting?”
Caesar sat on the teak chair, one hand on the armrest and one hand on his chin. He looked at Headmaster Angor, his ice-blue eyes expressionless.
"Here are the seven board members of Kassel Academy. Other than one of them not coming because of some matters, I can't reveal the names of the board members to you now. However, there is an exception, and that is your uncle.”Anger pointed at the old man with a walking stick.
"I don't think I have the qualifications to attend such a meeting. Indeed, the Gattuso family has a very high status among the board of directors, but I said that I joined Kassel Academy of my own will and that it has nothing to do with my family.”Caesar tapped the table lightly and spoke casually in front of the board of directors.
"In fact, your uncle strongly recommended you to attend this meeting.”" He has high expectations for you," Anger said.”
"I don't know what was expected of me.”Caesar said.
" Become the best dragon slayer," Caesar's uncle said." The Gattuso family is a dragon slayer family that has been passed down through the generations. You look better than your predecessors. This gives us great expectations."
" Yes, all the members of the board of directors are descendants of the Dragon Slayer family," Headmaster Angers said." Gattuso is one of them, and I represent the Cassel family, which no longer has an heir. For many years, we have been waiting for an elite to appear in this school. A true elite, an elite who can fight against the first generation of pure-blooded dragons. In the past year, we have seen hope in some students, and you are one of them.”
"Because I killed Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire?”Caesar's ice-blue eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke.
"That's right. You will become the leader of the new generation and lead the hybrids to victory. You will send the four kings who are about to awaken to hell one by one.”Caesar's uncle said with a fanatical look.
" The Nibelungenlied plan. This is the main topic of discussion for this meeting. " Nibelungenlied is the 'land of the dead' in Norse mythology. In Wagner's famous opera,'The Ring of Nibelungen', this ring represents power, and the person who holds it will control the world," Headmaster Angers said in a low voice." The Nibelungenlied project means that we will choose the person with the most potential and use all our resources to nurture him, allowing his bloodline, knowledge, and experience to reach the peak. He will be, and must be, a hero. He is an important chess piece in our plan to eradicate the dragons. However, accepting this project meant that you had to sacrifice a lot of things, such as personal time and a comfortable environment. You would experience danger and might even die.”
"It sounds really good…but I refuse.”Caesar smiled and refused resolutely.
"Caesar, I don't understand what you mean.”The old man took some snuff from the back of his hand and finished it in one breath.
"Indeed, all of this sounds very tempting. But that doesn't mean I'm willing to be manipulated by you. I killed Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire. I'll continue to prove my strength to you, not carry out this bullshit 'Nibelungen'.”Caesar shrugged indifferently and got up to leave. "Excuse me."
Caesar's departure made the entire conference room fall into awkwardness. After a while, he smiled and said,
"It seems that your nephew is a little overconfident. Although you strongly recommended him, it seems that he doesn't appreciate it?”
"He will agree because he is a child of the Gattuso family.”Caesar's uncle stood up and left with his walking stick.
His footsteps were slow and unusually heavy. Every time his metal cane and stiff left foot touched the ground, there was a metallic sound. Apparently, one of his legs was a metal prosthetic in his pants.
The meeting ended on bad terms. The other board members left one by one, but Angre kept his eyes lowered and did not say a word.
The phone rang.
"Oh, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei successfully retrieved the double'S 'grade information? This seems like good news."
