Suprise! I'm still here.
I'm sorry for everyone expecting weekly updates. I will try to make more chapters in a better time frame, but I have just been busy with no school and fake work.
Please accept my excuses.
Only the truly strong ones can protect the weak.
Now your the only king!
David!
Sara!
Leave, you are no longer welcomed here.
You tyrant!
I'll kill you all!
What have I done.

"Nooo!" I jump, awake.
Just a dream. Always seems the same. Might as well get up for the day.
The big mission's today. Still wonder why Ozpin wants to make another alley. Seems he doesn't have enough ants in his hill.
A few days ago:
"Welcome, Mr. Blade. You might be wondering what I have for you today."
"Is it another grimm invasion? " I ask. "No, this time we would prefer if you used no force. This will be more like a negotiation mission." I just stare.
" I'm not exactly friendly looking. Why am I the one selected for this mission. Wouldn't Glynda or Amber be better suited for negotiating? "
"Well, as I said before, I would prefer if you didn't use force, but in case this person... disagrees, I would prefer someone best suited for escape. Based on your job as a combat instructor and... reputation with missions you would be the best suited for it if this were to go south."
" Is this person powerful? " "Well, it's not just one person. There is a large group of thieves and bandits see with a forest, the one you found Amber in. They have a leader there, that we would like to make an alley if possible."
"Another reason your going is that we have made attempts to negotiate before, but they seemed less than cooperative. Since they don't know you work for us yet, I would think that would also give you a chance to speak. "
"And if their uncooperative?" Ozpin just stared. That was enough of an answer.
" We will give you the location on your scroll. I'm afraid you will have to travel by foot, being as it would be suspicious of they were to see one of beacons vehicles and you show up. "
"I think I'll manage. What about my classes?" " Glynda would be substituting for you. Hope you don't mind. "
"Eh, that's fine. When should I go?" " I'm a few days. Remember, if possible do not kill anyone. That will give them the wrong idea. The leader who you will be negotiating with, her name is Raven. "
Present day:
I look through some of my potions. I was able to make a few with some of the resources I had from when I was in the nether, too bad I'm at a limit.
I'll bring a few just in case. This time Ozpin has directly told me not to kill anyone. This is going to be a hard mission.
I hear a knock. I open the door. "Hey Techno. Ready for another day of class?" It's Amber.
" Not today, I have a mission. " "Oh, how long will you be gone?"
I start making my way to the exit. "Maybe a week or so. Supposed to go and negotiate with some bandit leader."
"Oh, you mean the Raven girl?" " Yeah, for some reason Oz wants to make them an alley. " I would say it's a little weird he picked a bandit, but who am I to judge.
"Wait, you met this person?" " Well, I didn't see her being as the bandits would not let us through. But from what I've heard, she is very powerful. All of the bandits fear her. "
"Hm, if it comes to it, then she better be as good as everyone says." Wait, did Amber just blush? Weird.
" Anyways, I have to go. See ya soon, kid. " "Um, b-bye."
I make my way through the city, until I get to the outside where the forest is. Well, here I go.
Glynda:
"Are you sure about this, Ozpin? With his record, he should be in prison instead of just roaming around free. "
"I understand your concern, Glynda. But it would be better if we kept that to ourselves. He is a good alley, and it seems the students like him."
" Oz, he's a murderer. I'm more worried that he's around the students than if they like him. What's the chance that he snaps and kills one of them? "
"I highly doubt he'll do anything like that. From his records, he only seems to kill the ones that have done something bad in his presence."
" Does that matter? And you send him to the maiden, we have not told him the reason we want them as alley. What if he kills her and we lose another maiden? What then, Oz, will you do with him? "
"I already told him not kill anyone. I trust him, Glynda, he has followed every one of my orders before."
" Telling him not to still won't stop him. Oz, we have a killer working for us. We should-
Ring!~
"Sorry, Glynda, but this topic is over. About time you should head to your new class. "
"I'm not dropping this Ozpin."
I leave the Oz's office. I can't believe him. We have a murderer working here, and Ozpin just lets him be.
Well, at least he takes his job at teaching seriously. The notes he left me are... I hate to admit, but impressive. They were almost as good as Ooblecks. Almost.
I walk into the class. "Morning class. I'm afraid Professor Blade is on a mission at this time, so for the following week or so, I will be your substitute ."
Most of them were silent, while there was a few groans. Huh, guess some students do like him.
"Today in class, we shall have team battles. I'm sure you know the rules, so let's begin."
Velvet:
Me and my team make our way to the manager's office.
"Anyone know why the headmaster wants us?" My teamate, Yatsu, asks.
"It's probably another mission for his top students. Look sharp everyone." Our leader, Coco, says.
We walk into the headmaster's office.
" Hello headmaster. You called? " "Hello team CFVY. Yes, I have a mission for you two."
" What's the mission? " "Well, there seems to be two unknowns found outside in the forest."
I'm still sorry it took so long for me to get up and do the next chapter.
I'm very thankful for everyone following this story. Your all great and I feel like I don't deserve you guys. I probably don't.
Anyways, peace!
