[Ashford Empire-Imperial Academy]
Inside the student dorm building, in one of the rooms, a boy was sitting cross-legged, breathing evenly, seemingly in ditation. Just from the aura surrounding him, one could tell he was a strong person with deep cultivation.
"Hah... this barren place is really not good. There is no mana, and I can't even practice. All the little mana stones are already used up."
Carl couldn't help but lant.
"That's why it is better to leave this place as soon as possible. Get that Ignisia Tower Token and leave for the Calvora continent. The conditions there are much better. There is no need to get entangled here."
Ruther's soul, from the ring on his finger, walked out and reprimanded him.
"But that asshole kicked so hard that it took almost two days to get better," Carl said in hatred, rembering the match a few days ago.
That day, he lost all his reputation—not that he had one in this place anyway—but he was hateful regardless.
"Haha, you let down your guard. It should serve as a lesson not to belittle anyone when fighting."
Ruther laughed at him, rembering his sorry figure. In his opinion, it was better to lose in such a way so that his disciples wouldn't get complacent.
"Tch... I didn't lose to him. It was only because he was lucky and had that amulet to save him from ntal energy. Otherwise, he would be the one lying on the ground."
Carl didn't think he lost. Ultimately, it was all because he was competing on the Knight level. If he were allowed to use the Wizard thod, that bastard would be deader than dead.
"Heh... kid, defeat is a defeat no matter what." Ruther rolled his eyes.
"I will challenge him again to see if he can still win," Carl said, unconvinced.
"Okay, don't put the cart before the horse. From the information, he seems to be a son of a duke. There is no need to get entangled in this matter and lose your chance of getting a token. You can always take care of this matter after you gain everything."
Ruther reprimanded, to which Carl nodded unwillingly.
"Tch... kid, that girl Lyra seems to have so beef with that person. There is no need to co in between them. After you beco stronger, is there any girl who will not co to your bed on your call?"
He persuaded him, seeing his unwillingness.
"Okay, I won't make any move until I achieve my goal."
"Hm... also, don't show off your ntal power. I vaguely sensed so Wizard in this academy. The water in this place seems deeper than I thought."
Ruther reminded in a low voice as he felt strong ntal power a few days earlier.
Although it was nothing compared to his heyday, he wasn't in a position to look down on others now. It was better to be careful than to mindlessly show off.
"Hmm..." Carl nodded as there was nothing and no one here to show off his power.
'I just need to wait for almost one year,' he thought to himself, as that was the ti for Ignisia Tower Awakening.
When he returned to his true battlefield, he would show how much power he had.
He clenched his fist, controlled his breathing, and began to practice the Knight Breathing thod.
Ever since he lost to Ian, he began to pay attention to his knight training because he couldn't practice the Wizard ditation thod now.
"Hmm..."
Ruther nodded in satisfaction as Carl heeded his words.
Then, just as he was about to return to the ring as his soul form was too unstable to sit outside, he suddenly felt sothing from the east direction.
He couldn't help but look to the east in confusion.
"Strange, all my arrays and arrangents were destroyed simultaneously. What happened?"
He thought in confusion.
"Could it be...??"
Thinking of so of the things in that forbidden place, he couldn't help but shudder. Experience more tales on empire
"I should better forget about that place."
He quickly put aside those thoughts and entered the ring, not wanting to ddle in those bizarre things.
...
Inside the noble quarter, specially prepared for the aristocrats in the Imperial Academy, a beautiful girl with long blonde hair, captivating blue eyes, and a gorgeous blue cloth was looking at a token in her hand.
The token was a circular dallion forged from a radiant tal alloy that glowed faintly with an internal amber light, resembling molten lava.
"Ignisia Tower Token!"
Lyra looked at the token in her hands, feeling quite complicated. This token was sent to her at the Imperial Academy by her aunt Elara, Ian's mother.
Along with this was a letter asking her to return from the Imperial Academy imdiately.
Without further explanation, she could already understand whose action this was. Who could it be if not for Ian?
"Tch... can't you co yourself or at least write a letter?"
However, Ian already knew that if he ordered her to return, she probably wouldn't agree. Although Lyra was timid, she wasn't soone who would accept charity and beco docile in important matters.
Moreover, Ian didn't have ti. So, he gave the Ignisia Tower Token to his mother and asked her to invite Lyra out of the Imperial Academy.
It was better to keep a distance from Carl as much as possible when he wasn't there. After all, he didn't like to let uncertainty go like that.
Now, even for the face of Elara, Lyra had to return. After all, she now had no plausible reason to attend this academy.
"Tch... he still hasn't changed much."
Lyra pouted in annoyance, but she wasn't angry.
"He said he had changed, but he still couldn't help getting jealous. Hehe..."
She giggled to herself, rembering the fight that day in front of the crowd.
When Ian knocked that nobody out of the ring to show his anger for her, she felt quite special.
Then, she rembered what happened after that, and her face and ears turned red in shyness.
"Bastard!"
She spat, seemingly shy, but the expectation of that feeling again in her eyes betrayed her true thoughts.
"Sigh... let's return and practice hard. Sylvia also went out to get stronger. I better not lag behind."
After controlling her emotions, she sighed heavily and resolved herself to practice more.
Once she made the decision, she quickly applied to leave and return directly to her house, ready to practice seriously to at least beco soone worthy of Ian.
