Chapter 219 So many points within ten minutes

Chapter 219 So many points within ten minutes

After the participants disappeared from the platform. The green particles scattered in the air, like fireflies.

The floating elf woman gazed at the empty platform and finally descended to the ground.

Her movement was graceful when she walked toward the few individuals sitting on comfy chairs at the end of the platform.

She gazed at them and quietly sat down on an empty chair.

Serena was sitting behind her with a woman and the same old man who wanted to keep an eye on Kyle.

On the other hand, the participant's teachers, relatives, and the individuals who followed them to the event were sitting on the rows of chairs surrounding the platform.

After a few seconds, the green particles trembled again. This time they gathered together in small groups and started forming thousands of projections. The projections gathered on the platform and showed the far-away scenery of a green forest with some mountain peaks, crystal clear lakes, and thousands of tiny bodies of monsters roaming around in groups or alone.

Soon, tiny dot-like figures of the participants appeared in the projections but because the number was too large the audience wasn't able to see the participant's movements.

However, amidst all this, no one was gazing at the bundled-up projections above the platform. Instead, they were looking at the large bright square screen floating near the ceiling. The screen was divided into three sections, the first section contained a row of numbers from 1-100, the second section 101-200, and lastly the third section 201-300.

Under their gaze, just after half a minute, many names appeared in front of the numbers. The names belonged to the participants who had started gaining points after killing monsters.

The audience sighed and leaned back in their chairs. For two months, the participants would fight for a long time that's why except for the people in charge of the event no one would stay in the dom.

Slowly but surely they would leave but for the time being, they curiously watched the shifting of names on the large screen, some even started placing bets. Especially the Lune Academy professors because they were sure their students would achieve greatness in the event.

The other elve's Academies professors scoffed at their smug expressions and a large betting board was set up between the crowd within a few seconds. That's why everyone started betting on different powerful participants.

While all this was happening, the dom gate swung open and a group of old and young elves wearing expensive clothes walked inside with grim expressions. They were greeted by the same old elf who attacked Kyle when he left the Tower.

The old elf named Anlee chuckled and gazed at the sudden arrivals.

"It's such an honor to see so many big shots together. Let this humble person escort you to a proper sitting place."

Anlee started walking and the group of elves quietly followed behind him. They stopped at the place where Serena was sitting and sat down on the row of chairs behind Serena.

The sudden arrivals were from the famous elve's noble families. Usually, they would never come to these types of events but because their children were participating they decided to come and watch the kid's performance.

Anlee's smile didn't leave his face as he left the noble in the back seats and heard the crowd's stunned exclamations. He simply staggered toward the expressionless woman sitting in front of Serena.

"Aira, you have done a great job."

Anlee took out a chair from his storage ring and sat down beside Aira who nodded at his words.

Aira didn't like doing this type of work but because she was one of the strongest female elves from Kingdom Tersia the King requested her to oversee the event.

A low gasp was heard from behind and Anlee turned around to see the grim expressions on the group of people from the noble families.

One of the middle-aged men from the noble families pointed at the screen with narrowed eyes.

"Why can't I see my son's name on the screen? He is the strongest among his peers!"

The person sitting beside him patted his shoulder.

"I can't see my son's name as well. Let's wait the competition just started."

Serena scoffed at their words and gazed at the screen. All the names were unfamiliar so she just absentmindedly saw the top ten participants' points.

'Kyle's name isn't even in the top 300. I will leave after a few hours and come back to pick him up when he is done.'

Serena closed her eyes to rest for a while because the individuals around her were busy talking rubbish but only after ten or so minutes she was jolted awake when the old woman sitting beside her shook her arm with panic.

"Serena!"

Serena opened her eyes with irritation and slapped the woman's hand away.

"What is it?"

She spoke with knitted brows but then she noticed something was amiss. A lot of eyes were staring at her. Even Anlee and Aira's heads were turned back at her face.

"What...?"

Serena questioned and blinked her eyes with confusion but in the next second a stunned expression appeared on her face when she caught sight of the large floating screen.

The name that was nowhere to be seen a few minutes ago was now shining brightly at the top with a large amount of points.

1_Kyle Ohan 1090

2_ Luna Gohai 380

3_Sinon Ambing 270

Serena's breath hitched and she started sweating. Her mind went into overdrive and she subconsciously gazed at the only person who knew about the fact that she brought Kyle here.

The old man sitting on her left side, the same person who wanted to keep an eye on Kyle.

She glared at him with a dark gaze but the old man shrugged his shoulders.

"I just said you know Kyle. Nothing else."

Serena wanted to curse all his generations. No.. No, she wanted to make him bald! How dare he!

Her sharp gaze disappeared in the next second and an emotionless expression appeared on her face. This was not the right time to snap. Moreover, how did Kyle gain so many points within ten minutes? I just fucking closed my eyes for a few minutes and he is on the top!

All of a sudden one of Kyle's sentences appeared in her mind.

'Can I really do anything in the event?'

At that time, she didn't think much about this sentence but now she knew the meaning behind it!

'Damn it! Han you fucker! You said Kyle is just a slightly strong student who knows a little about Arrays and has a unique bond with a legendary beast! You are dead! How dare you scam me?'

Serena was seething. She only agreed to Han's request because he said Kyle wouldn't cause much ruckus in the event because his strong bonded beast wasn't with him.

She looked at the many question-filled faces who were staring at her. The matter was already out of control. Now, these old foggies would try their best to find out who was Kyle.

Serena almost cursed out loud because, in the next second, Kyle's points increased again.

1_Kyle Ohan 1880

2_ Luna Gohai 420

3_Sinon Ambing 330

She cleared her throat with a nonchalant expression but inwardly she was panicking.

'OMG! If he took the top spot I am a goner! Not just me even the Queen had to answer if his identity got revealed. We added his name to the event through underhanded methods! I need to do something!'

She stood up and Anlee raised his brow. His amused voice resounded in her ears.

"So, Serena you know who is Kyle? I didn't know such a hidden talent was present in our Kingdom. Anyway, what's his background? Probably a commoner because I had never heard his name before."

Serena's mind was a mess. She laughed dryly.

"He is just a commoner I found while traveling. Ah... I remember my friend wanted to see me for some reason. So, I will take my leave. Please senior take care of Kyle until I come back. Thank you." n)/o--v).E--l()B)/1..n

With her last words drifting in the air, Serena immediately stepped out from the chairs. Her pace was fast and within a minute she disappeared from everyone's sight.

Anlee's suspicious gaze lingered at her back, he turned around to look at the old man who exposed that Serena knew about Kyle.

"So, Mr.. whatever... what do you know regarding Kyle?"

The old man chuckled but his back was drenched with sweat because Anlee and Aira both were staring at him with narrow eyes.

"I don't know much but this matter is a little strange because instead of registering Kyle for the event like everyone else Serena just requested to add Kyle's name without any background information. Moreover, I got a message from the Queen so I agreed to Serena's request."

Anlee frowned but then he turned around to look at the Projection.

"It doesn't matter, we will know his background after the event."

He gazed at the projections floating on the platform.

"It's a pity I can't control the projections to see how Kyle got so many points."

Anlee leaned back on the chair. The projections were contacted to the dom so they could only watch the tiny images. Also, he wasn't aware of Kyle's appearance so even if he focused on the projections there was a very low chance he would find Kyle.

Just like him, the audience was stunned when they saw Kyle's name on the top with so many points. They didn't care who was Kyle and started betting on his name. With so many points above Kyle's name, only an idiot would bet against him.

Even the noble families were curious about Kyle's identity but no matter how much they thought they weren't able to recall any talented person named Kyle.

A familiar name did appear in the back of their mind, 'Kyle Ohan' from Kingdom Escalante.

The same Kyle who bonded with the legendary beast and was talked about a lot a few months ago but why would the Royal Academy send Kyle here in a foreign Kingdom? To endanger their bright student life? No way, the Royal Academy was so dense!

Moreover, Kyle was from Kingdom Escalante it was not possible for him to enter this special event held by Kingdom Tersia to find genius talents. That's why they threw this thought out of their minds.
