"Jack is a very mysterious kid, While others were teleported to the academy, he was teleported somewhere else... Can someone really manipulate a Teleportation scroll?"
The Dean asked, looking at the elders sitting in front of him, at his right; the Royal families of different races sat on their seats, all staring at him.
"That's not the point here, what about the Beast-Rulers?" Kara asked, her gaze fixed on the three guardians who stood behind the Dean.
"First Elder, after some investigation, Jack saved Princess Angela by sacrificing his Demon-Stage familiar--"
"--I know all that, Tell me what happened when you encountered the two."
Kara stopped the first Guardian with a rise of her hand.
"Well... We found Jack and Princess Angela surrounded by Monsters' carcasses, Jack killed 80% of the monsters with what princess Angela revealed, but the surprising thing was; he has another familiar."
Everyone frowned slightly.
"What are you saying?!!"
Aaron's step uncle, and Harold's father, the eldest son of the elves kingdom yelled in shock.
"Calm down, Orion. There must be an explanation for this."
The elves' king said to his son, then turned his head to the Dean;
"There's an explanation, right?"
The Dean turned to the three, who nodded.
"Jack claimed to be the last descendant of the Ning family."
"WHAT?!!!!"
They all stood up in shock.
"Are you sure about this?!" Kara asked, her gaze fixed on the guardian.
"You do know how important the Ning family is to all races, and you know the position they hold, although they're no more, their inheritances are still reserved!!" She added.
"Yes, we even tested him by sending our soldiers, even through they're a lot stronger than him, he defected all of them with the earth and wind affinities, and he didn't use any skill when facing them..." The first said.
Kara slumped down on her seat, she took a deep breath, and turned her head to the emperor.
"Emperor Hick, you know what this means, as your father decreed, 40% of your kingdom belong to the Ning family."
"I understand." Hick nodded, and added;
"He saved my daughter, so doing this is replaying the debt."
"It seems you misunderstood, The 40% of land is promised by your father in front of the grand priests and us elders, it has nothing to do with today's debt." Kara said with an emotionless expression.
Emperor Hick frowned slightly, but still nodded.
'Giving 40% of my empire?! That's more than 5 Cities!' He thought.
Kara turned her head to the elves;
"King Maxim, your father promised the Ning family the Plantations in your southern colony."
Maxim thought for some seconds, looked at his two sons and sighed softly;
"My father promised this, is it necessary for us to agree to it?" He asked.
"Yes, my father is right! This is my grandfather's wish, there's no need for us to honor it!!"
"I need all the dukes, Earls, Barons, or anybody holding political positions to be under me in less than 2 months... That's why you have been separated into two groups... Use the gold coins I gave you, If they refuse to submit... Just give me their names... They can be easily replaced by our men... I want the whole continent before this year is done."
"Yes, Club Leader!"
Aaron was silent, then heard his sister's voice in his head.
[Baby Brother, The Demon Kingdom will be taken from inside out, you don't need to wipe out their army... Only if they surrender... If not; I'm sure you know what to do.]
'Oh wow, it seems Lilly has been busy... Hmm... Ok, I'll go with her plan, if they surrender I won't kill them, but if they attack... I'll wipe them out... Tomorrow; We'll be leaving the Academy... I'll be back here for only one reason...
Know my enemies better.'
BEEEEP!!
The group looked around the building with a slight frown.
[Voice of Mariel: Jack, If you are in the Academy, The test result is out, come to the Academy field.]
"It seems it's time we all get promoted." Aaron smiled, and walked towards the door, Protean flew into the air and landed on his right shoulder.
'I wonder what test or question they will bring up about the Ning family.' He thought.
___
[Academy Field.]
"Jack!! I'd been looking everywhere for..."
Angela stopped on track, seeing Emily walking beside Aaron... She smiled, walked towards him, and hooked her hand in his.
"I was so worried."
She felt her body heating up again. 'Why every time I touch him, I'll be in need of his touch? No! I should keep some distance, I don't want to do something that I'll regret.' She slowly let go, walking beside him.
Aaron noticed her action and smiled inwardly; 'Not so stupid after all.'
While Emily just rolled her eyes, Aaron already told her his plan, so she wasn't angry or anything...
'Enjoy yourself slut, when the time come, I'll be the one stepping on your head.' Emily thought.
"You don't have to be worried about me, I'm good... I just went out to get something for my friends." Aaron smiled.
Angela looked at Emily, Stellar, and Mott, and muttered;
"Oh?"
Her eyes brightened instantly, she quickly said in a low voice;
"All the things you need have been brought by my guards, the military strategy and the rest."
Aaron turned to her with a surprise expression; "Really?"
She nodded with a smile; "You can check it out when you have dinner with me, I'm buying you dinner... Please."
Aaron thought for a moment and nodded; "If you're ok with it--"
"--I am." She cut him off.
"Ok, We'll have dinner after the result announcement."
"Yey!" Angela replied happily.
Aura who had woken up, walked inside the Academy gates, and froze seeing her sister and Aaron walking ahead of her, she could clearly see her sister was happy.
'What did I miss?'
