"We hadn't gotten the chance to, as you interrupted us, Mr. White."
Lawrend smiled at June jokingly.
??
"Hohohoho, I like your guts."
June praised Lawrend after seeing him smile at him.
"Mr. White, I concede!"
Kenova shouted immediately after he realized where this conversation would be taken. He doesn't want to go through unnecessary suffering.
"Concede?"
June turned his head to Kenova like he just heard the funniest joke ever.
"Yes!"
Kenova nodded his head vehemently.
"Lawrend, what do you want to bet?"
June merely glanced at Kenova before he ignored him and asked Lawrend.
"I think the loser should be demoted to Class D."
Lawrend answered with a smile on his face. He doesn't know what's the difference between the classes were, but he could guess it was worse after hearing June threaten Kenova with it.
"Hohoho! A great answer."
June laughed uproariously at Lawrend's answer.
"Mr. White, please!"
Kenova hurriedly bowed to June. His fear of being demoted to Class D was more than anything.
"Hmph. I want to show you a lesson."
June snorted at Kenova.
"So, what does the winner get?"
June turned his head and asked Lawrend.
"Hmm… I don't know. What do you think is proper, Mr. White?"
Lawrend tried to think of something, but he doesn't know much about the academy to come to a decision.
"I'll recommend you to a special mission."
June replied to him.
At this point, it was obvious to everyone that June was just rewarding Lawrend in a way.
"A special mission?"
Lawrend tilted his head slightly in confusion.
Meanwhile, everyone in the class murmured to each other when they heard June's words.
"Lawrend, a special mission is rarely granted to anyone. Once you complete a special mission, the academy will easily approve your Moving Up request."
Humility explained to Lawrend, seeing that he was confused about it.
"Thank you."
Lawrend thanked her with a smile before he turned his head back towards June.
"I think that's a good reward."
Lawrend said to him.
"Very well."
June nodded his head in satisfaction.
Kenova, who had thoughts of conceding quickly changed his mind when he heard the reward. No matter what happens, he will do his best to win! The reward was just too great and even the punishment is harsher.
"How about you, do you agree?"
June turned his head to Kenova and asked.
"I don't have any problem, Mr. White."
Kenova replied to him with a solemn nod.
"That's good."
June looked at both of them and nodded his head.
"I'll start teaching the Undrasil Purification Magic Theory then."
June said to the whole class. He then proceeded to teach them what this new theory was all about and how it works.
After teaching the whole class, June turned his head to Lawrend and Kenova alternately.
"And so, my question for the two of you is, 'What is the most effective way to apply this theory for lightning magic?'."
June asked them with a smile on his face.
This question has many possible answers. It would be down to who can think of the most efficient one.
This theory focuses on the fact that mana from the environment is inherently impure. And the way to purify it is by moving it in circles, and the impurities will accumulate at the edge of the circle.
The question is, how to apply it to lightning magic. What was mentioned above was how it would theoretically happen to mana without any elemental properties. He still hadn't explained to them what the application for lightning magic was.
"You both have 20 minutes to think. Write your answers on a sheet of paper and submit it to me after you're done."
June said to them.
"Here."
Humility gave Lawrend a pen and paper.
"Thank you."
Lawrend accepted it and thanked her.
"No problem, but are you really sure that you can do this? I'm not that good academically, but I still know that this question is out of scope for True Mages like us."
Humility said to him with concern on her face.
"Don't worry, I can do this."
Lawrend reassured her with a smile. He really liked the fact that she was even concerned about him as they only knew each other yesterday.
Kenova scribbled on his paper very fast. He was doing mental calculations as if his life depended on it.
As for Lawrend… He sat there calmly. He asked himself, 'What are the impurities anyway? Since they hinder mana, then what are they?'.
Everyone in the class could see Kenova scribbling very fast and Lawrend calmly sitting there. They don't want to admit it, but they are slowly starting to think that Kenova has a higher chance of winning.
"Lawrend…"
Humility gripped her fists tightly in anxiousness. She's rooting for him, so she doesn't want to see him lose.
"10 minutes!"
June shouted dramatically.
When Kenova heard it, he scribbled his calculations even faster. As for Lawrend, he shook his head. He then started writing on his paper. His hand was as swift as lightning as he wrote calculations on it.
"5 minutes!"
June shouted again. Kenova had already written on several pages while Lawrend was still on the same one.
"1 minute!"
June shouted once again. This time, Kenova was sweating bullets of sweat.
"5!"
"4!"
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Time's up! Give me your papers."
June shouted to them with his hands open.
"Phew."
Kenova released a sigh of relief. It was very tiring for him, but he managed to calculate a very feasible application for the theory.
"Did you do it?"
Humility asked Lawrend anxiously.
"I don't know."
Lawrend replied to her.
Humility was dumbstruck hearing Lawrend's response to her. Her heart rapidly beat as she became even more anxious after hearing his careless response.
Lawrend stood up and passed his paper to June. Kenova did the same, and he eyed Lawrend like a hawk.
"I'm winning this one."
Kenova said to him before he turned around and sat on his seat.
