Chapter 10 – The Obedient Maid Tells the Truth (1/2)

Loran Academy

Teacher’s office.

“You really challenged Lin Xiao to a duel?” The bearded white-haired teacher, Woos, was depressed and spoke with a criticizing tone.

After class, he called Caesar to the office. He had planned to discuss another important topic with him. He then heard the news that Caesar had challenged Lin Xiao to a duel, which really scared him.

Caesar and Lin Xiao were both good students, he did not deliberately favor either party. Although he was very curious about who was stronger between Caesar and Lin Xiao after the last magic test. However, he definitely does not want the two of them to determine it through a duel!

The duel is different from real combat drills organized by the school. There is no protection in the duel. Only two magicians, will stand on the duel field to fight for their own reputation and glory. In order to completely defeat the opponent!

The most terrifying thing in a duel is not being injured, it’s defeat!

Prior to this, similar events had occurred numerous times in Loran Academy. Because of the duel between students, a student who was seriously injured had to drop out of school. Once sustaining an incurable injury, their future would be ruined!

Even if they weren’t injured, the party that loses the duel will be devastated, lose their reputation, lose their dignity, be laughed at by their classmates, looked down by everyone, and become deteriorating trash which would destroy their lives!

Caesar and Lin Xiao were both supposed to be two promising youngsters, both of which could be valued equally. Woos did not want to see any one of them lose their future prospects because they lost the duel.

“Teacher…” Caesar stood in front of Woos and bowed his head in earnest, but his eyes remained firm.

Teacher Woos is one of his highly respected teachers, but he obviously didn’t intend to make concessions here. The duel couldn’t be revoked again!

“What happened?” Woos was unwilling and couldn’t help but ask.

He heard from other students that at the beginning, Lin Xiao was calm and composed when he faced the invitation to fight against Caesar.

In order to avoid this meaningless duel, Lin Xiao compromised and acknowledged his own weakness, which made Caesar lose the sole goal of the duel. He then started preaching about principles, which clearly showed Caesar his dream. It clearly showed him his enemy and thus calmed Caesar’s anger.

This maturity and eloquence, even Woos couldn’t help but want to give Lin Xiao a thumbs up. In terms of magical talent, Lin Xiao couldn’t compare to Caesar, but in terms of principles and aspirations, I am afraid that even ten Caesars wouldn’t be able to match Lin Xiao.

Many times, Woos couldn’t believe that Lin Xiao is only a fifteen-year-old child. The way Lin Xiao handled this incident was enough to see his tolerance.

However, why did Caesar, who should have given up the duel, change his mind? Woos was still unclear about what happened afterwards.

“It was Lin Xiao’s maid, Elena.” Caesar did not hide anything and narrated what happened in full detail.

Elena’s ridicule and derision destroyed his path of retreat. Under those circumstances, no brave man with a backbone could withdraw.

He could only defend his honor by winning the duel!

“What? That maid said that you and Lin Xiao are not magicians of the same level? Are you sure you didn’t hear it wrong?” Woos was shocked.

“No, that’s right!” Caesar said. “If it wasn’t for her provocation, I would’ve already given up on the duel.”

“That’s strange…” Woos scratched his head in pain, his white hair became more and more unkempt.

Speaking of Lin Xiao’s maid, Woos’ head began to hurt.

First of all, that girl Elena’s background, was a complete mystery. Silver hair, red eyes, and peerless beauty. Woos has lived for quite a long time, but he has never seen a family with a bloodline of silver hair and red eyes. He only knows that the other person’s name is Elena, a slave to Lin Xiao, or a maid. Anyways, a servant.

What’s strange is that, how dare a mere servant ridicule Prince Caesar in front of a crowd and say that Caesar and Lin Xiao are not magicians of the same level?
