Chapter 238 Genius?
The moment he saw the purple-haired, sharp-eyed woman speaking in his direction, Vicente's eyes narrowed as he looked at the group of Mages in front of him.
'3rd stage magicians... What a problem.' He realized that the emissaries from the Seidel Magic College could only be some of the Mages in the room before him.
The man next to the purple-haired woman sighed as he closed his eyes. "Miss Philips, don't give us any trouble. Newton's situation is no secret to many relevant people in the province."
"But are these people important?" She asked, pointing in the direction of Vice and his men.
"According to Reid, yes. How could someone capable of absorbing a yellow pentagram while only at the 2nd stage not be relevant?" The old director of this academy, Jaxon Scott, a mid-level Mage, said as he looked toward the one who seemed to be the leader of the group being escorted to them by the royal soldiers.
Vicente heard that and realized the academy's leadership was already fully aware of everything that had happened in the Alpine Woodpecker Forest over the past few days.
'Damned Julian and his colleagues...' He sighed, but he already knew there was a good chance of that happening.
Arriving in front of the two in the doorway of the academy director's office, Vicente made a common gesture of greeting and said. "Nice to meet you, seniors. I heard emissaries from the kingdom's magic college would like to see me. Are you them?"
The white-haired man with a beard and mustache, standing next to the light-skinned woman with purple hair, said to Vice. "Young Cesar, the one next to me, is the group leader that came from the kingdom's magic college, Alice Philips. I'm Jaxon Scott, the director of Rexnelts Academy."
He looked at the soldiers standing there and said. "You are dismissed. I will take young Cesar and his companions to my office."
"Yes, director Scott!
Vicente entered the office and soon saw four other people there. Among them was another woman who had pink hair, a relatively young man with long brown hair, and a middle-aged man with short white hair and no beard, standing with his back to the rest of the group next to a window.
They were all Mages!
Sitting on a sofa in the middle of the office, Vicente remained silent, waiting to see what these people wanted from him.
The two youths who were there with Alice looked intensely at Vicente, staring at him in a way that frightened the young man's soldiers.
Meanwhile, director Scott sighed when he saw this difficult situation.
Then he opened his mouth, breaking the silence that had followed Cesar's arrival.
"Young Cesar, you're here because of the pentagram you absorbed. It was to be young Joshua Lambton's prize." The director pointed to the brown-haired young man, who had an ugly expression as he looked in Vicente's direction.
Vice looked at the Mage, who had recently advanced to the 3rd stage and was supposed to win the pentagram naturally formed in the region of the Alpine Woodpecker Forest, which, according to the experts of the magic
college, was very compatible with him.
As a high-ranking nobleman in the kingdom who would soon join the army to serve the king, Joshua naturally felt 'damaged' by what had recently happened between Vicente and the yellow pentagram.
He was the one who had to absorb the pentagram!
He was the one who had successfully graduated from the magic college and would soon begin to serve the kingdom!
Yet, a stranger had come into his affairs and 'stolen' what should have been his...
Naturally, he felt wronged by Cesar!
Then Vicente opened his mouth. "I understand that my pentagram was previously the target of someone from the magic college of the kingdom. But seniors, how am I to blame for everything that happened? I didn't try to absorb the pentagram. It chose me. I had no choice and faced great danger in trying to prevent the worst from happening."
"We know that..." Director Scott was about to say when he was interrupted by the man with his back to them looking out the window.
"Cesar Mazzanti, can you show me your second pentagram?" Newton opened his mouth for the first time since these Mages had gathered there to discuss the subject of Cesar and what had happened in Alpine Woodpecker Forest.
Everyone looked at him, aware such a man was not someone they could ignore.
Newton didn't come from a very powerful background. But his innate ability was supreme!
His ability gave him the capacity to learn everything. Aside from the skills of pentagrams and natural essences, he could learn any technique or knowledge as long as he concentrated on it for a while.
He was one of the greatest geniuses of the Seidel Kingdom of the current generation, someone who, at the age of 45, was already a mid-level Mage with 10 professions, and in all of them, he was classified as a 3rd-grade professional.
However, Newton was not an active professional but a scholar, someone who developed spells and studied the theories of each of these professions.
Vicente looked at the man and didn't refuse. "I can. Shall I do it now?"
"Hmm, if the others don't mind, I want you to do it now." He said as he turned and looked at Vicente.
Looking at the man's face, Vicente saw an unusually shaped green gem on Newton's forehead, with two circles with the same center and what looked like an asterisk above it.
"Do what the scholar Newton suggested," Alice told Vice in an authoritative tone.
Vicente stood up and didn't hesitate to move his mana into his Magic Gem, activating his second ability and revealing a beautiful yellow pentagram in front of his body.
Seeing it, everyone opened their eyes wider, seeing that professor Reid's words were not lies.
Even before that, they had doubted the veracity of the words of the teachers who had returned alive from Alpine Woodpecker Forest.
Even after hearing that Cesar Mazzanit had arrived in Ironcrest and they had sent men to bring him to them, they still had doubts, for in the kingdom's history, no one had ever accomplished the feat of this young man.
At the sight of Vicente's second pentagram, everyone there paused for a moment to witness this unprecedented fact, realizing just how powerful such a level 1 Acolyte's magical fluctuation was.
"You really did it..." June, the woman next to Joshua, murmured as she looked at Vicente with interest.
'This young man...' Newton stopped scratching his folded hands behind his back, seeing Vicente was unusual on a much deeper level than the other Mages could realize.
"Enough, Cesar Mazzanti." He commented, once again turning his back on the people in the room.
"You truly have an incredible talent. Can you show us your Magic Gem?" Director Scott asked.
