Chapter 103 Result

"Unbelievable… The Chambers kid killed someone from the Moontomb. Is he not afraid of death?"

"Even if he's not… He still has families outside the Academy. What is he thinking?"

"It's an accident. I'm sure that the Moontomb Family will not take revenge on him. The battle was fair and square."

"That's right… There's no one to blame. If you really want to find someone to blame, you should blame Academy for allowing such a dangerous duel."

"Ha! As if they would care if it's fair and square."

The spectators who knows the Moontomb Family reacted differently. However, one thing is certain, Vale Chambers is going to be marked by this powerful family.

His future in the Academy may not be as bright as before as they decided not to get close to him until they learned what the Moontomb Family plans for him.

"Is he dead?"

On the stage, an eight-year student who is also a member of the Rankers Club asked coldly to the three Corner Judges and some officials of the Battle Arena Committee on the platform.

He isn't too far from them so the officials heard his voice clearly.

They have already used almost everything in their means to try and save Wilfred. Unfortunately, they can only give up and proclaim his death.

"Yes." Nadine solemnly answered as he looked at the person who had asked.

It was the Vice-President of the Rankers Club and also Ranked 30 in the Elite Rankings of the Academy beating many ninth-year and tenth-year students.

He is Cornelio Moontomb and Wilfred's cousin.

Nadine looked at the man cautiously in case he would try to suddenly attack Vale to exact vengeance.

Luckily, this man seem to be capable of controlling his emotion as he simply stared at the "weakened" Vale who was still kneeling on the platform.

Cornelio then shifted his gaze back to Nadine and spoke calmly.

"Don't worry. I'm not going to deal with him right now. Regarding the Spell Scroll that Wilfred promised, tell Vale that he can't acquire that since it's our family's property. Wilfred doesn't have the right to give it to him."

Nadine didn't think too much of it as she could understand why the Moontomb wouldn't want to give that Spell Scroll.

She nodded and answered. "I will tell him about it."

"Mhmm… In case he still wanted the Spell Scroll, I will first ask our family to gain approval and we will be issuing another duel. At that time, we'll give him more rewards if he still managed to win."

With that said, Cornelio looked at Wilfred's corpse before shaking his head.

As soon as he left, Nadine finally relaxed as she looked at Vale worriedly.

'As expected, they won't let this go so easily…' Nadine sighed as she felt that the student she recruited was really quite special.

Now that Vale had offended the Moontomb Family, it would be difficult for him to stay in the academy unless he also has a strong backer.

"Let's check on Vale's condition… Don't think too much about the Moontomb family. I'm sure he can do something about it." Chad spoke after seeing that Vale was already taken away by the officials. They seem to be bringing him to a doctor.

Chad also noticed that Aubrey, Blair, and the others were still shocked at the sudden death of the Moontomb's young master so he had to remind them of what they should be doing now.

"Right… Let's meet him first." Aubrey replied in agreement as they immediately followed Vale to the infirmary.

She may not be expecting Wilfred's death, but she still knows that Vale would win this duel. They should still congratulate him for his victory.

As for the effect of this victory, that can wait until after their celebration…

Their group swiftly left the arena as they saw Wilfred's classmates and friends mourning his untimely death.

As they were walking, they heard a few seniors whispering about Wilfred's condition.

"I saw the Assistant of the Gold Necromancer just now. It seems that Wilfred still has a chance to live. However, it's no longer as a human being."

"Ugh… That's true. They just need to request the help of that prestigious Necromancer in the Academy."

"Yes… Even if they don't like that method of the Necromancer. The Rituals Branch can also do something about his Spirit. Who knows, Wilfred might like it living as a Spirit instead of an undead."

"Let's just wait and see what will happen."

Aubrey and Chad looked at each other after hearing this… None of them spoke but they certainly took note of what they said.

They were planning to let Vale know about this.

As soon as they arrived at the infirmary, they were surprised to see the Headmaster coming out of Vale's room!

"…"

Their group was stunned since none of them expected to see this mysterious and powerful Headmaster of the Academy!

Headmaster Jean, on the other hand, smiled at them as he carefully hides the Ring Artifact in his hands.

"Your friend is already waiting for you. You can come inside." The Headmaster said with a gentle tone.

"Y-yes, Headmaster. Thank you." Aubrey slightly bowed as she was uncomfortable staring at the vague feature of this man.

"Ahem… Is he not in good condition, Headmaster Jean? Is it alright to visit him now?" Chad asked cautiously.

He felt that since the Headmaster even went to check Vale's condition, then Vale must've been in a bad condition that needed his immediate attention.

"He's alright now…" Headmaster Jean replied before he dissipated like a cloud of smoke leaving the group of students stunned.

After a few moments, Chad whispered…

"That looks cool… I wonder what spell was that?"

"That's probably a movement spell. We'll learn it in our third year or fourth year." Aubrey answered.

Lisa, who was silent up until now, also looked interested in that movement spell. Since she doesn't have any Spell Models yet, she was always looking out for a decent one.
