84 Test End! (2/2)
”I agree with Crown Prince's decision.” Leon said in a low voice.
”I too, agree with the decision. Another unanimous decision.” Ian smiled and sent a voice transmission to Carl. ”The brats passed the test. Announce their inclusion to the Genius Class.”
As the transmission made it's way to Carl's ears, he smiled widely and smacked his cane to gather the attention of the crowd.
”The deliberation was made. I announce, Anne Fiore, Mark Anderson, Ellen Redcrest, Paul Gregory, Luna Moonsong and Vendrick Valorheart passed all of the pre-requisites to be a part of the Genius Class! Everyone, let's give them a warm round of applause for their splendid performance!”
As Carl announced this the whole stadium shook and waves of cheers and applause echoed to each corner of the place.
The crew gave them a curt bow and high-fived with each other. All of them felt refreshed and lively, like a huge boulder was lifted off from their shoulders. As they turned around, they saw their parents smiling and clapping along with he crowd. The team dispersed and went to their families to celebrate for a bit. Even Balmung, who worn a disguise welcomed Luna along with Old Lee who felt incredibly proud of the little princess.
Luna smiled on the surface, but in her heart there was a tinge of jealousy whenever she looked at the happy smiles of her friends with their parents. This was not to he mistaken that she wasn't happy, in fact she's incredibly thankful that her brother took some time out of his bust schedule to be here. But it would be nicer if her parents were here too.
”Come on, don't make that face.” Balmung pinched the cheeks of his little sister. ”They might not be here but they know what's going on. I recorded your performance and sent it to them. Mom will surely see it, as for Dad well…we'll know once he gets back. Nevertheless, we're proud of you, alright?”
”Mn.” Luna bit her lips and smiled, ”Thanks big brother.”

If they maintained a splendid performance in the Genius Class then their futures would be limitless, so it's safe to say that this people are now preparing to plan on what to do.
”Is this true?”
At one part of the inner court of the kingdom, a man kneeled in front of an elderly who was sitting on a fancy couch while re-reading the report that he made.
”Yes, Clan Head. I swear to the heavens that my report is true.”
Hearing the man's pledge, the elder's eyes flashed a trace of coldness. His expression was twisted into an ugly grimace as he whispered: ”So the little rascal of that deserter finally bared his fangs huh? Very well. Don't think that I've forgotten how much suffering you brought to us you piece of shit. I will make sure that your life would be a living hell once you step in here.”
The elder sneered with a malicious expression as he crumpled the report using his bare hands.

Beyond the great walls of the Final Haven Kingdom, several kilometers deep into the Forbidden Woods. There is a great cave that lead deep down into a chasm of darkness.
In a table filled stained with blood, five hooded figures gathered, there are no other lights aside from those 'candles' lit the skull stand.
”…and that concludes the recent report of what happened in the kingdom my Prince.”
A hooded figure just finished talking, he politely leaned back to his chair awaiting for his superior's words.

A deep and gritty voice echoed in the corners of the room, there was this natural coldness into his voice that cannot be concealed. For a brief period of time, the only sound that could be heard in the room was the continuous tapping of his fingers on the table.
”Continue monitoring them for now. If they ever so shine with a brilliant resplendence, we will snuff them out as early as possible. They are not allowed to grow up to be our next headache.”
”Affirmative, Demon Prince.”
The hooded figures retreated back into the darkness, leaving the Demon Prince alone. His fingers were still tapping on the table, after a while of silence, a whisper escaped from his mouth.
”Nearly there...nearly there...”
