Everyone’s mouth opened wide; disbelief was shown in their faces. Emperor Marcus slammed the armrest of his high chair, “When did he learn this spell?! And how does he have lightning mana essence?!” “Your Imperial Majesty, maybe he already has it before? After all, we never really know what mana essences this student had because the measuring platform exploded when …

Thessalia hit the ground with her butt. A lingering fear was instilled in her heart. “Who-who are you?!”, she stutteringly asked. Being transported in a different dimension simply by catching eye contact with one another was a feat not many could do, especially a young man like Zachariel. Moreover, they were scenes that happened not in Pandragea, but to another …

*Warning: Mild Gore Content.* Crossroad City, Great Human Imperium. Several dead bodies lay on the ground, painting the cemented roads with red blood. Three men walk up while holding bladed weapons. “Tsk, these damn Imperium guards! How dare they trick us?!”, one of them shouted. “At least it’s over, for now. Leave them! Come, others said that the fights in …

Rossi Household, Imperium Capital City. The servants prudently worked around the area. Some of the guards patrolled the perimeter while the rest stationed themselves in places with a clear view of the surroundings. A transparent fog permeated around the surroundings. Not one of the guards noticed it even though they were platinum-level fighters. A servant swept the floor when he …

Jeremias stood atop the platform with his dark-blue mage robe. His long hair fell, almost covering his black eyes. They were clear and filled with confidence. On his left chest was the Prospect insignia. It radiated a glorious impression that further emboldened Jeremias’s confidence. `Where’s my opponent?` He had been waiting for a while now yet the person named Althea …

The loud cheers continued to rain upon Kane’s departure from the platform. This made Zachariel suspicious. He remembered Luiz saying the criticisms that Kane received from the past days. `Unless all of these people are loyal to the Royal Family…` Then his doubt should’ve been resolved. However, his mind was telling him that something didn’t add up to the atmosphere …

Many of the spectators exclaimed, criticizing the performance of the Prospects after Helena’s defeat. “Tsk, at this rate, we will lose!” “What are these Prospects up to lately? Have they been training? Isn’t that trick from earlier too easy to be noticed?!” “F***, these kids have been way too peaceful for a while now! They need to be taught what …

The rest of the deans were in disbelief of the quick match that resulted in a victory for the human Prospects earlier. “Hmph, that silver-haired girl was sure lucky.”, James mocked. William’s passion was re-ignited. `Maybe I doubted these Prospects too much. William, you sure have gotten old and stupid.`, he cursed himself. He adjusted his posture, bending forward while …

Zachariel and his classmates hurried towards the coliseum located on the 3rd floor.  “So, who are the five people representing the Great Human Imperium today?”, Zachariel asked. “The five students who will represent are Sabrina Rossi, Jeremias Pickler, Helena Summer, Victoria Spencer, and Prince Kane Cromwell.”, Luiz recalled, using his fingers to count how many people he called out. Zachariel …

The thundering march of the undead army echoed in Zachariel’s ears. It pulled him off his nightmare and returned to reality. “Hah!” `What was that?` That mobile lump of flesh struck fear in his heart.
