50 Leaving the Nacesai Academy (1/2)

Even if the audience believed that Yale used an illusion spell, the higher-ups were strong enough to deduce the truth.

There was no way a small spell cast by a kid could affect them.

Those people were also the ones who knew about Time Healing; they didn't need to think too much before reaching a conclusion.

Yale had used a time element spell and one that was different from Time Healing. That was something that shocked all of them.

Then, Sainac looked at Swordmad, but instead of a shocked expression, he wore a satisfied expression on his face. Sainac understood that Swordmad already knew about that time spell.

Until that moment Swordmad was the only one who had seen Yale use Absolute Protection.

However, Swordmad thought that Yale used it unconsciously before and that he managed to control it consciously before the tournament.

Yale had shown all his power in the battle against Heruk.

He had no other way to win against him, even if Heruk was a despicable guy, his battle prowess was undeniable.

Fortunately, Heruk lacked a strong will as he always had a comfortable life and never needed to worry about his life or his future. He had always been extremely confident in himself and considered himself the most powerful guy of his generation.

Furthermore, Heruk was unable to tolerate the pain as he wasn't used to it, that was the main reason he focused on reinforcing his body, his fear of pain.

Another thing that made Heruk lose was his love for torturing his opponents.

If he had tossed Yale off the stage after catching him, Yale would have been forced to cancel Absolute Protection to avoid losing the match, and then Heruk wouldn't be distracted by Yale's sudden disappearance, and thus Yale's attack would have been less effective.

Even if Yale shocked all the audience, three people were the most shocked of all.

Those three were Aizu, George, and Ange who had the closest relationship with Yale without counting Swordmad and the unconscious Zack.

Of the three, Aizu was the one who trained the most with Yale, but even if she thought that Yale was amazing before, she never imagined that his real prowess was at such high level.

George had already felt that Yale had surpassed him when he guessed that Yale had entered in the expert stage in Yale's third battle, but he thought that their difference wasn't that big and that he would be able to catch up soon.

However, after seeing how Yale battled against Heruk, George couldn't avoid feeling depressed, Yale was already on a monster level comparable to Heruk's who no one dared to offend.

Ange was the happiest of them, seeing how powerful her little brother became a relieve to her who was always concerned about Yale's future since Yale was born and their father ignored him.

While everyone was shocked by Yale, Yale himself wasn't happy about his victory as he hadn't been able to really cripple Heruk.

Knowing Heruk's personality, he would start to look at how to harm him and his close ones after he awoke.

If Yale were far more powerful than Heruk, then he wouldn't mind too much, but he won relying on strategy, in a straightforward battle Yale didn't feel confident in his possibilities.

Having Swordmad as his master, Yale didn't fear Heruk's background. However, to deal with Heruk, he didn't want to rely on external help.

”Congratulations Yale, that was an exciting battle.”

Sainac went to the stage to congratulate Yale; that was also one of his customs in the academy tournaments.

Of course, it was only exciting on the level of watching a kid's battle in the eyes of someone of his realm, but Yale's Absolute Protection really caught him off guard.

Being able to shock someone at such high level was a tremendous honor for someone at the mortal rank.

”Now it's time to announce the tournament prize!”

As Sainac spoke those words, everyone stopped talking and paid attention to him, the mystery about the tournament's prize was the hottest topic on the academy.

”That's the first time our academy managed to get the honor to be invited to the opening of a special realm in the Imperial City! The top eight contestants of the tournament will be able to enter!”

The audience barely knew anything about Imperial City, but anything related to that place was awesome in their eyes.

Those who weren't able to participate due to being in a too high realm or who had lost regretted losing such a good chance.

”Why limit it to the 3-star mortal realm?”

The one who asked that was the most powerful student from the promotion who entered the academy before of Yale's, he had advanced to the 4-star mortal realm two days before the announcement of the tournament.
