Chapter 84 Assembly [Part 1]

Chapter 84 Assembly [Part 1]

The news of what happened to the Land of Dragons has been blocked by the Raverdieu family, but either way, some of the powerful families had other ways to find out.

Some of the powerful families like the Dukes, and Marquess also already had an idea of what transpired there. As for the other continents? They'll eventually find out sooner or later.

Currently, the academy testing was about to start, and many upcoming students were all neatly seated in the assembly hall of the Pontiac Academy, waiting for the arrival of the instructors in charge of the testing.

Zen's attendance at the academy has also already been spread amongst them, and they were all looking forward to seeing him.

Naturally, they also knew that Zen had gone to the Land of Dragons with an army. So they thought that he would be late, although once the academy started, no students would be able to enter. Knowing Zen's current situation, the academy should be able to make an exception for him.

Many recordings had been circulated online of the Raverdieu's extravagant armies appearance on Tranquil City; it was to the point that it could pretty much crush any third rate continent.

Continents were divided into rankings as first rate, second rate, third rate, and the Astre continent holds the prestigious title of being the one and only first rate continent on the entire planet.

That was the first time that the Raverdieu family had shown part of their family prowess. All the people on the Astre continent were in awe of being able to witness such a powerful army.

"When are the instructors going to appear, it's been so long."

"Uhuh, I wonder what's taking them so long, We have been here waiting for an hour!"

The young people who came here were all conversing with each other, trying to figure out why the instructors had not yet made their appearance.

"Oh right, the Raverdieu's young master will attend the academy too!"

"Yes, not only that, but look!" a young man said while he pointed at a few figures in the area that had the temperance of nobles and had strong auras.

If Zen were here, he would say, 'Shii, all of those from the novel have finally made their appearance in the academy!'

"The competition in the academy this year would be much much harder, I do not think we'll even be able to shine," that same young man stated with a gloomy expression on his face.

Fiona, Celestia, and Daphne were also on the sidelines, sitting down, confused as well because they had already finished the tests and such back then. They should not need to be here, but they were instructed to attend, which baffled them.

All three were also conversing with each other and talking about Zen. It was as if whenever they got together, all they talked about was Zen, but mostly it was all mediated by Daphne; all the words that came out of her mouth were all about him.

"What do you guys think happened at the Land of Dragons? I mean, Zen went there with like a massive army from your family, Fiona." Daphne questioned.

Hearing what Daphne said, Celestia thought about it for a moment, as she seems to have sensed something strange with Zen's actions and how everything went down.

She couldn't figure out what made her feel that something was wrong, so in the end she responded to Daphne with a concerned tone: "I believe that land would probably be taken by Fiona's family; I just hope that Zen would not go overboard."

"Not everyone from there was at fault or should even have knowledge of what happened at Tranquil City."

Once Celestia concluded her words, Fiona suddenly spoke with a sense of hatefulness in her tone, saying, "Hmm, you know, Celestia, the people at Tranquil City also had innocent children and such, and they all died just like that because of those people from the Land of Dragons. They deserved what is coming for them!"

"But.." Celestia was about to speak but swallowed her words because she knew that she had no right to speak about it because this happened in the territory of the Raverdieu's.

If it happened in the territory of the Doomthorne, would her family do the same and attack the entire Land of Dragons?

"Right! Do they really think they can casually come and go to the Astre continent without consequences?! Impossible."

Celestia felt the topic of their conversation was a bit dark, so she decided to redirect the topic: "Hey, enough about that, let's talk about this assembly."

"Oh right! Why were we even called here, We have already done all the testing and such.

"I was playing my game in my room when suddenly I received a notification from the academy forum saying that I had to come here."

"I accidentally clicked on that notification, and I died in the game; I lost all my items!" Daphne said as she aggressively scratched her head with both hands, feeling infuriated about what happened.

"There you go again with the games; like, take a break from it once in a while." Fiona stated.

"Nopee!" Daphne responded, looking straight at Fiona with her tongue out and a sound escaping from her mouth: 'Bleeh'.

"Y-You, you know I am doing this for your own good."

Celestia listened to both of their conversations feeling helpless and thought, 'How did the conversation go from why the instructor called us here to games again?'

"I may have an idea of why we are here, actually." Celestia spoke up, breaking up Daphne and Fiona's conversation.

Both were also quite curious about the current situation, so they turned their gazes to Celestia with a serious expression, wanting to listen to her explanation attentively.

"I've heard that all the instructors and the dean had a meeting regarding the event that transpired during the Twilight expedition. They might be implementing new rules and a new system regarding how the academy should work from now on."

"Since what happened then was quite tragic, the academy should have thought of things that would prevent such incidents from happening again. They should be announcing all this during this assembly."

Hearing this, Daphne came to the realization, "Ahhh, maybe that is why the instructors are late and they should be preparing to announce all this stuff."

Fiona wasn't surprised, as she also had the same thoughts as Celestia.

While these three girls and all the people currently present in the assembly were conversing, four figures appeared on the front stage of the assembly, which immediately silenced the entire room.

The instructors have finally made their appearance.
