Hey Draco, if you touch my son, I'll break you!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLgOuDQx4N
"What! Zinarfil—how did you get in here?... And this boy—is he with you??"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3eA8uiZJy
"Oh, what an honor! I'm so glad to see you, Lady Zinarfil! But I don't recall giving you permission to enter."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsQmUlsWvR
"Well, Andreas, you know the cameras are still recording, so you better not say too much. Now all of you, back away from Aryan."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0ceI6dnq7
While the argument between Draconsius and Andreas escalated due to Zinarfil's sudden arrival, Aryan, overwhelmed by the pressure, fainted and missed the clash between the three powers.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DQ4Hl1ni0
"Sister, you'd better explain why you're here—and who this boy is! And please, stop calling me Draco."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkzb856O9z
"Bravo, dear little brother. Do you remember when was the last time we saw each other?"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo0I48JnY4
"Lady Zinarfil, I apologize for interrupting, but as a king, I must ask—why are you here?"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovwvXmA30F
"Well, no problem, Roxleus. But you shouldn't talk to a lady with such filth in your tone. Now step aside. I'm taking that child to a healer!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzFaV5Xm3m
"Alright, Roxleus, Draconsius—everyone, let her do what she came for. But Lady Zinarfil… don't forget you owe us an explanation!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiTraPdSUg
After a long argument with the three kings, Zinarfil gently picked up Aryan, whose body had turned cold like ice, and made her way to the exit. Meanwhile, Andreas ordered Abraham and the other judges to end the trial and announce the candidates accepted into the school.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPSSxHVTxQ
"Abraham, announce the top students and end the exam."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0WPFnVjku
"Yes, Your Majesty, but we still have the third trial and the sorcerers' assessment…"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NtChhKUrc
"I told you to end it. Or would you rather I end you?"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV8PvDxuAE
"Y-y-yes, Your Majesty…"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaCf8zzgMh
After the kings departed, Abraham announced that the exam was over. Of the 30 remaining participants, only 20 passed. The top students were Drikaron, Maro, Aryan, and Leo—each a surprise in their own right, especially with Aryan's unexpected appearance.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzElMRbzLc
Many present wanted to protest, but the fear hanging in the air was too heavy. No one dared.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p6td04GW3
"Ughhhh…" Draconsius was furious. He shattered the room in rage, scaring many servants. "I still can't believe that hag showed up!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4RJHRP7Px
"Calm down, Draconsius… Don't degrade yourself."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxgZQtWRHU
"How can I calm down, Roxleus? You know her! Why should I keep calm? And who is that boy?!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMFTleoA1C
"I think I know who he is," Andreas said as he turned from a painting on the wall to face Draconsius.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR88MgJ9p9
"Who is he, King Andreas? Like I said earlier—his face felt very familiar."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RoWozK71i
"Well, King Eldinor, I wasn't sure either… but seeing him up close, and with Zinarfil showing up... It's him. That boy is the son of Atrius—the King of the Legends!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcY4EnBKgl
Draconsius, who had just sat down, jumped back to his feet in shock. "How is that possible? Didn't we kill him during the battle?!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuL5eOheT1
"Well, I agree with Andreas. Eldinor, the reason he seemed familiar to you is probably his silver hair, right? And that ridiculous power for a nine-year-old—it was just like Atrius in his youth!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wAQvsOmcV
"Unfortunately, King Roxleus, I didn't know Atrius as well as you did. But yes—I'll never forget that face. And I saw it again in that boy... like he was living inside him."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbouUD31k0
"Well, it doesn't matter who he looks like—we need to decide what to do with that boy!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxp6AnRadv
The kings grew serious, staring at one another with expressions devoid of sympathy.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaWLXtafUz
"Well, I think we shouldn't act until we're sure. That boy is the only person in the history of the mages with an affinity for four elements!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzmTF1ZMtU
"You're right, Roxleus. And not just elements—they're all related elements, too. But if we wait too long and he learns the truth, we're screwed. I don't think we could stand against him like we did against Atrius!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvHwBm6bWl
"Friends, I hope you haven't forgotten the prophecy from nine years ago. If he's the one—it's better to kill him now!"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW6LtXZZ5k
Each king shared their thoughts about Aryan. All eyes eventually turned to Andreas, who stood silently, deep in thought, staring at the floor and mumbling, "If he's Atrius's son, then... he's his son too. Interesting. That streak of black in his hair might explain it."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2mgXNBd0p
After two minutes of silence, Andreas finally spoke.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnbfcpGj86
"Let him live. Let him go to the Crusalis School. Roxleus can watch him through his faction, and I'll try to bring him to our side… and use him for our goals."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oVr9tkaLV
The others looked at each other in surprise but eventually agreed to spare Aryan. Just then, Zinarfil reentered the room, her face as expressionless as a frozen lake.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNvDlG7hJU
"Well, I see all of you are still here—and sadly, still breathing. I don't know what you're plotting, but let me say this loud and clear: that boy is my son now. If you touch him or even speak to him harshly, I swear—I'll destroy you."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBJcPjWQFW
"And how exactly do you plan on doing that, huh? You think you can take us on alone?"
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyjcT6dohO
"Just like I made sure you became king, little idiot brother. Now I'm leaving, and Aryan will go to school safe and sound. Luckily, he remembers nothing about what happened during the trials, so I suggest you all play dumb, too."
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhILVKVrAc
With that, Zinarfil walked out, leaving the kings behind.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8k1V5qjyd
"I'm sorry to ask this now… but who is that woman?" Eldinor asked, clearly still in shock.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8t9JmT9K4
Draconsius, his face still flushed with anger, simply muttered, "If you don't know… then stay ignorant."
