Kai accepted the director's offer and sat down on the chair that was in front of him. "I suggest we start this meeting by introducing ourselves. My name is Malcolm Argentum, the director of this academy. I'm sorry that we got off with a bumpy start." He then extended his hand in a gesture of apology and to shake Kai's hand.
"Kai Natasa" he then extended his own hand and shook his hand. He had expected him to test him again, but instead, their handshake was firm but not meant to hurt.
After they shook hands they both sat down, and Malcolm asked Kai "So what's your cat called, it seems intelligent?" "Its name is Bob, short and simple. He's a very smart cat, he can understand human words."
"Well let's put all pleasantries aside and talk business. Your assistant has told my secretary Annabelle, you've already met her that you want to invest in this educational institute." "Yes, that's right." Malcolm looked at Kai trying to understand what his purpose was, upon coming to the academy.
Kai stared right back at him without flinching before Malcolm continued with amusement flickering in his eyes. "Here's the standard contract you just have to put in the amount that you're interested in investing and your name and signature. Please sign here, here and here."
He gave Kai a thick stack of documents and pointed at various small spots on the many pages. "This is the standard contract." Kai looked at the huge number of documents and mentally told Bob "Does he actually think that I will sign a couple of unknown documents without reading it. What does he think that he can intimidate me with them."
Bob looked at the many documents and said to Kai "You know that I don't care about all of this business talk, I'm going to sleep wake me up when something interesting happens." He then propped his head on his paws and went to sleep.
Usual vampires couldn't sleep, however both Kai and Bob could. Kai usually never did because he felt it was a waste of time. The only times that he went to sleep were the days were he over drafted himself.
Bob, however, enjoyed sleeping since he tried to always be in peak performance in both mental and physical capabilities. So, when they could leave the arena and finally relax, he instantly wanted to go to sleep. However due to Kai not allowing him to he was frustrated and grumpy, that was one of the reasons he butted heads with Malcolm.
Malcolm was surprised to see how easy going Bob was after all Malcolm thought that Bob was protecting Kai.
Kai turned his head back to Malcolm and interrupted his thoughts. "Before I sign any contract, I would like to experience the school life here. To see how the school runs, you understand right. After all, I'm willing to invest a minimum of 1 billion dollars into this institution and I want to see if it deserves the money."
"Very well, I will first tell you about all the academy's state of the art facilities. First, there are the dormitories, designed by many renowned designers and architects. The rooms are meant to be shared with from two to four students. Of course, if the parents are willing to pay more then the child can stay in his own room.
But, over the years I've discovered that many of the students prefer to stay with other students in the same dormitory. After talking to them personally I have discovered that they enjoy socialising with other people of the same age group, as well as the same daily lives that they experience.
The staff and teachers are all geniuses in their own study and communicate well with the students. All of them have their own PhDs and Doctorates in all of their fields of study. Many of them are some of the leading researchers and professors in each of their respective fields. They come and lecture every day in the mornings and are usually very cooperative with the students.
We also have the lecture halls, where we promote freedom and self-studying. There the students can come in the mornings to learn from their teachers and in the afternoons, they can study by themselves in the halls. The halls are very open and promote a large area of comfort for all the students.
Finally, the academy's grounds. In the academy, we have many different sports fields, almost one for each sport, while the more popular sports like soccer or basketball have at least five fields. We try and make the students do at least one hour of physical exercise a day in order to keep them fit and healthy.
In addition to the sports fields, we have many state of the art laboratories made for strenuous research by the students and the staff. So, all in all, the facilities satisfy everybody on campus." Malcolm finished his long promotion of the academy with a long breath.
"Wow, he sounds just like a sales clerk promoting his product," said Bob in surprise. Bob tried to fall asleep but in the end, listened to Malcolm in interest. "Didn't expect that from him"
"I will personally take you on a tour through the campus later," Malcolm promised charismatically. "Wow, Director Argentum you have almost won me over, however, I would like to stay here undercover and try to see how the student life here goes on without being recognized as an investor. I would just like to enjoy the school life for a few days." Kai said in a low voice.
"Hmm, this isn't something that I can decide myself." The Director said to Kai in a grave tone. "Oh, I'm sure you can let me stay on campus for a few days undercover if you agree I can increase the investment by a few million dollars." Kai could see that the Director was merely trying to squeeze as much money as he could take from Kai.
"Very well," the Director said with a big smile on his face. "Now what role will you take? Because we have extremely high standards here at the academy." "I was considering being a librarian," Kai said without hesitation.
"A librarian?" The Director repeated in a questioning tone. "Not a teacher or a janitor, but a librarian. But I guess that was to be expected of you after all the first thing you saw was the many books I have here in my office. Oh, well you don't go for the standard undercover professions.
Alright, so its settled now if you want I can take you on a tour of the academy." "Before we leave, I would like to ask where I will be sleeping?"
"Oh in the staff dormitories of course. All the staff sleep there, of course, you will have your own bedroom to yourself." "Alright let's get going then." "Then follow me, Mr Natasa."
The director got up from his chair and towards the door, with Kai following behind him. They both left the Director's office with the door gently shutting behind them.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
