Chapter 85: Their Suspicions

The voice rang out from one of the rooms, and the door opened, revealing a figure—none other than one of the triplets.

He had a pair of crimson-red eyes, most similar to the colour of human blood and Nolan guessed he was the one called Vlad.

Vlad walked out, a can of juice in his hand and a smile on his face as he approached Nolan's side and draped an arm over his shoulder.

"You're Nolan, the famous trash of the academy. Even the creator of the academy, whoever they are, must know you..." Vlad said, as laughter erupted from the remaining rooms.

"Even the godly ten can only be jealous of your fame..." The feminine voice, belonging to none other than Gaia, rang out as the girls left the room they were checking and entered the third one to explore it.

Nolan could only grin in embarrassment.

Honestly, he never thought he was so famous—famous to the point that even the godly ten knew him.

It was something a bit funny and embarrassing, as while the Godly ten themselves are famous for something positive like strength, and potential.

He was Instead famous for being a trash.

And it was true. Nolan was just too abnormal to not raise the eyebrow of anyone who heard his name and peculiarities.

A Celestial Heir who couldn't control his divine essence? It was no doubt attention-piquing.

"You seem to know the little devil a bit. How do you even get along with a bonehead like him?"

"He just mentioned your name out of the blue. I thought he was joking at first..." Vlad said to him, glancing at Adrian, who rolled his eyes.

Nolan was beginning to understand how he found himself here at all.

It was completely random luck.

Whether that luck was good or bad, only time would tell.

"He didn't tell you?" Nolan replied as Vlad shook his head.

"I met him when I visited the training room. He has the Kratos Bloodline too. Guess what he said to me when I first met him..." Adrian said, as Vlad's ears perked up.

"What did he say?"

"He said I was unworthy of being one of the godly ten!"

"HAHAHA!"

"GIGGLE!"

"HAHAHA!"

"HAHAHA!"

Laughter boomed throughout the spaceship.

It came not only from Vlad but from his remaining brothers and even the girls in the room behind them.

"He said that!?" Vlad asked, looking at Nolan in disbelief.

"Yes, he did. And do you know how we settled it?" Adrian asked, as Vlad's interest piqued to the maximum.

"I'm guessing someone got knocked out right then and there..." he said, with the girls giggling even more.

"Yes, someone got knocked out, and it wasn't him..." Adrian confirmed, as Vlad laughed out loud but suddenly stopped.

His ears perked up, and the sound seemed to fade away from the ship, almost like a vacuum erupted and sucked away the air.

"What did you just say?" He asked, just to be sure he heard right.

"I proposed a light spar, and he agreed. Five minutes later, I woke up, tearing myself from the wall, and he was nowhere to be found..." Adrian said, and absolute silence resumed with Vlad simply alternating his gaze between Nolan and Adrian.

"You got knocked out by him?" Vlad asked in shock.

"Yes, I did..." Adrian confirmed, and in the next instant, Vlad's two remaining brothers came into the sitting room, and even the guy who was wearing a blindfold came out, despite saying he wanted to sleep.

It was absolutely shocking to them that Adrian got knocked out by the trashiest trash in the academy.

He might be the weakest amongst them, but they don't call him the little devil for nothing.

"It wasn't as simple as he said it..." Nolan interrupted.

"How did the fight even take place?" Venus asked, and Nolan looked at Adrian with a cunning smirk before replying.

"He didn't take the fight seriously..." Nolan responded, and they all looked at Adrian, who could only remain silent.

"I went all out immediately, lowered his guard, and then caught him off guard."

"He tried to use his third ability, but it was too late, and he got knocked out."

"I knew I would be dead if he woke up, so I quickly retreated from the scene..." Nolan said with a wild grin, as the others pointed at Adrian's face and laughed even harder at him.

Strangely, their laughter all rhymed together, making it resemble an angelic choir, and that just made Nolan grin uncontrollably.

"You know, I still haven't repaid you for that yet..." Adrian said as Nolan smiled shamelessly. Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Don't worry, you don't need to. It's all in the past now..." Nolan said, resulting in the trio laughing out loud even more.

"But still, Adrian used his first two abilities, right? The trash of the academy shouldn't be able to match that, should he?"

"I heard they can make you fall by simply manipulating the Divine Essence in your legs?" The guy with the blindfold said as he snatched away Vlad's juice can by simply stretching his hand towards it on the table, gulping it down as Vlad rolled his eyes.

"I heard recently that it was all a lie, and he had just been plotting it..." The voice came from none other than the pilot room, as Oliver, the scholarly-looking young man, explained all that he knew about the news report.

It surprised even Nolan a little that the young man had even caught on to his lie.

"Many things don't add up, though. And it still doesn't explain the fact that I feel like I can still control your divine essence."

"So, I'm guessing your answer only covers half the truth, or it's just a complete fabrication..." Oliver said, as he came to sit before Nolan, staring at him straight in the eyes.

A faint tension filled the air, as Oliver was too smart to believe all of Nolan's lies.

"What are you hiding, Nolan Gottschald?"
