The first lesson of the day had come to an end, and thankfully, Kelly didn't think the whole thing had gone so badly. She was even able to get praise from the professor, which had never happened before.
In fact, there was a rumor going around that Professor Quartz never gave perfect scores to students. Some thought he was just being stubborn as a mage, stating that they were a race that always needed to continually learn, because of that, there couldn't be a perfect answer.
It turned out that wasn't true at all.
As Kelly went to grab her things from her desk, closing them up and placing a special ring device on her finger, she turned her head to look back at 'Jake.'
'Honestly, it wasn't because of me that I got that perfect answer; I just repeated what you said,' Kelly thought as she let out a small smile toward him. 'I don't know if you're really the Dark Magus' puppet, or you're just someone who knew him really well, but it's quite clear that you're a knowledgeable person.'
'I don't think that's something a spirit would be capable of. I can't shake this feeling, but it seems impossible, and even if that was the case, then doesn't that mean most of what the world knew was completely wrong?'
Keeping these thoughts to herself, it was time for them to head off to the next lesson. Kelly had gone down, exiting out of the doorway into the hallway, and stayed there for a moment.
It wasn't just in her imagination though, because Raze could feel it too. The magic that was swirling in the air, there was a strong amount of bloodlust out there.
Raze was starting to think about his own situation; so far, two of the Qi pills had been consumed. He still had plenty to go through throughout the day. If all things worked out well, then after the evening event, Raze could quickly go to his secret vault and grab the items that he needed.
'If I can, the best chance might be at the event itself. My old classroom, it was in section A, at the top floor of the academy. People will wonder why I'm hanging around there if they see me. So let's see what this evening event has in store.'
The practical lesson took place in an arena that was built into the academy itself. There was a circular dueling platform, and then further around it in a larger circle was a pit of sand.
After that, there was also seating for spectators to watch. Once in a while, great events would be put in the arena, and the general public was also allowed to enter and watch, but for now, all of the family members would be taking place watching.
Raze went ahead and took his seat in the stands along with the others, and just like the time before, Alen had also tried to take a seat next to Raze, but he raised his hand before he sat down.
"I don't mind you being close to me," Raze said. "But I have a small issue with personal space. I promise this has nothing to do with you, and I respect you, but do you mind being one seat over?"
Rather than acting strange or weird, Raze thought it was best to just give a plausible explanation that would kill Alen's curiosity, who seemed to respect the decision and decided to take a seat one over.
The person to Raze's right, who had overheard the conversation, had done the same. Looking in front of him, Raze noticed that there was a special device attached to the stand wall.
"It's a magical barrier," Alen explained. "It uses beast crystals and with a magical circle built into the device. These fights sometimes can get a little spicy. It's to stop attacks from coming out here and to stop attacks from the outside from getting in. Not that you were planning to intervene, right?"Please visit https://novel-next.com website to read fastest update
