Chapter 10 – The Obedient Maid Tells the Truth (2/2)
She must have known that Lin Xiao was willing to concede in order to avoid this duel and even lose face. Yet, Lin Xiao’s maid actually dared to go against her master, deliberately provoking Caesar, wasting Lin Xiao’s efforts.
Why? Why would she do that?
“Not magicians of the same level?” Woos suddenly thought of a possibility.
As a maid, Elena probably wouldn’t lie, nor would she deliberately embarrass her master, so there is only one reasonable explanation —— that girl called Elena wasn’t lying! She was only defending her master’s honor and telling the truth!
In other words —— Lin Xiao and Caesar, the two of them are not magicians of the same level!
“How is that possible? Last month’s magic test, he was still at the beginning of the second-level. It’s already a miracle to be able to break through the third-level in one month!” Hearing Woos’ conjecture, Caesar instantly became agitated. “I’m a third level, he is also a third-level, how are we not the same level?”
“Caesar, have you ever thought of another possibility?” Woos said faintly, “Lin Xiao was perhaps hiding his true strength.”
“What!?” Caesar’s eyes widened.
Although this was a simple conjecture, it was like Caesar was struck with lightning.
In his view, it was a no-brainer to use all of his strength in the magic test. The one-track minded him never even considered the possibility that there were still people who were willing to hide their strength.
“Although some people suspect that Lin Xiao cheated in the test, but as the chief examiner that day, I can confirm that Lin Xiao did not cheat.” Woos explained, “If Lin Xiao didn’t cheat, it’s almost impossible to break through the third-level from the second in one month unless he deliberately concealed his strength before, that’s how he was able to have such an astonishing breakthrough.”
“Impossible!” Caesar shook his head and denied it.
“It’s just a conjecture, if that little girl didn’t lie.” Woos smiled faintly and didn’t argue with him.
In fact, there was still a speculation that Woos didn’t speak of. Lin Xiao is a member of the Eastern tribe. Woos guessed that the Eastern tribe may have special training methods and that’s how Lin Xiao’s strength could advance by leaps and bounds.
Of course, no matter what kind of secret traaining methods Lin Xiao hid, how he improved his magic, Woos will not interfere too much as a teacher. He wouldn’t covet after the secret methods and do things that are not conducive to Lin Xiao, he just wants to protect his cute students as much as possible.
What Woos didn’t know was that after listening to his speculation, Caesar’s fighting spirit was even stronger!
Is Lin Xiao really hiding his strength? Is he really stronger than himself? Caesar secretly clenched his fists and made up his mind to prove himself in the duel!
“Cough-, in short, I’ve said everything that I need to say. If you insist on a duel, I will not stop you.”
Woos understood that he shouldn’t try to stop the duel anymore. Although he is Caesar’s teacher, but Caesar was a prince. He has no right to interfere with Caesar’s decision. For this duel, he can only silently be a bystander.
“Thank you, Teacher Woos.” Seeing the teacher’s consent, Caesar retracted his arrogance and asked politely. “Teacher Woos, you still haven’t said why you called me?”
“Oh… I’m getting older, I almost forgot.” Woos awkwardly chuckled. “Next week the school organized an actual combat drill, we’ll take you outside and get some practical experience. I was originally going to let you lead the team and bring them out, but…”
“But?”
“Ah, forget it… I will use this old weary body and come personally, it’ll be troublesome if anything went wrong.” Woos sighed reluctantly and touched his fragile lower back, “That’s right, when’s your duel with Lin Xiao?”
“After the actual combat drill, the school’s duel field. Please rest assured teacher Woos, I will never delay the actual drill because of personal matters!” Caesar patted his chest to guarantee.
“Sigh, you youngsters…”
The duel is scheduled to be after the actual drill, so it was about half a month away. Maybe something will happen during this period?
