Chapter 57

Chapter 57

The sword held out by Sharon.

The student who took on the money looked puzzled but accepted it.

Uh, the ratio?

Sharon coldly muttered in response to the students words.

Its unnecessary. Its obviously not going to happen anyway. Instead.

Sharons eyes sharply lit up towards Ian.

Ian, if what you said is a lie, confess all your sins in the soon-to-be-open disciplinary committee.

Disciplinary committee.

Although it proclaimed fairness, the disciplinary committee was heavily influenced by the potential of the subject. Lina Rosewell was a good example.

In fact, Ians current manipulation of the situation was also aimed at gaining an advantage in the disciplinary committee.

Having agreed with Silvias opinion that building a positive reputation could be helpful, Sharons strong stance might have been an attempt to obstruct that plan.

Why is she so obsessed with the disciplinary committee?

The situation where heroines gathered was clear.

Why Sharon took the lead in such a way was even more intriguing.

It wasnt unreasonable to assume that Sharon Pierce was the culprit who had pushed Pongpong off the rooftop.

Sharon Pierce, possessing overwhelming physical abilities among the heroines and a cold, composed personality.

She was determined to resolve her childhood traumas through growth alone.

If Pongpong interfered with her growth, a few uncomfortable corners would be understandable as motives for the crime.

If she couldnt satisfy the pressure for growth imposed by her family and it erupted on Pongpong, who happened to confess

At first, it was just to remove an obstacle.

When Ian came back to life, there was a possibility that he had planned a more elaborate scheme to eliminate Ian through the disciplinary committee.

Considering she grew up in the Pierce family, it wasnt unthinkable.

As a traditional knight family, they prioritized honor over life.

In addition, as a family that thrived on survival of the fittest, various machinations among siblings were rampant.

Given all this, the background of the Pierce family she grew up in would not likely value human life so highly.

The endlessly cold and firm gaze of Sharon.

There is no need to think about it now.

From the beginning, there was no intention to restore the relationship with Sharon.

Even if everything miraculously fell into place, in the end, Id become Sharons enemy.

The next main story, Act 2, Frozen River, would inevitably involve conflict with her.

Therefore, the only way to resolve the conflict with Sharon now was for one of them to collapse.

The only reason to defeat Sharon in the disciplinary committee had just been added.

So, Ian nodded straight away.

I pledged the honor of Blackangers.

Honestly, no matter how you thought about it, it was a benefit.

The sword that Pongpong had given to Sharon. It was quite valuable.

And if he lost, confess his sins?

He didnt know what Sharon Pierce was thinking, but there was no crime to confess. Even if he brought Pongpongs achievement into it, a simple I apologize for confessing should have been enough.

This meant that it was unconditionally beneficial.

If I lose, I will reveal all the truths at the disciplinary committee.

And anyway, he would succeed.

Hey, student Ian? Its good to chat, but time is not that abundant.

It was Ians turn again, who had returned unnoticed.

As a gesture of apology, Ian nodded to the instructor.

And then, he moved forward.

Unlike the first day, today there were no special measurement devices.

A slightly elevated platform of about 3 meters in height and a transparent wall surrounding it to prevent the release of magic.

All he had to do was unleash his prepared abilities when he climbed up.

Mana control ability measurement start.

The instructors signal.

The surroundings buzzed with excitement.

Ian took a look around.

A group of Saron fan club members and their leader Lukasic were laughing.

Sharon Pierce, glaring.

Elisha, on the other hand, answered somewhat bluntly.

Of course, because its useless.

Well, thats true. Still, the meaning of aerial suspension is like this! Im so great that I can do such useless things effortlessly! But for a student to show something like that

Standing still in the air without moving is definitely not a bad ability. Still, well it could be some kind of trick, right?

Even if its a trick, its impressive, really impressive

Ray, who was about to counter, glared at Elisha.

Unni.

Elisha rolled her eyes at Rays sharp words.

Hmm?

Observe the principles of morality. Its my turn this time.

While the witches of the Magic Tower and Horizon Guild were arguing.

Deep in the spectator seats, there was a figure, looking down from a shadowy corner.

Amusing, but its a gimmick.

A girl with white hair that looked like stars and deep navy-colored eyes.

She was looking down at Ian with elegant but also curious eyes.

A knight from the Imperial Guard, the Knights of the White Lily, quietly approached the girl.

If youve seen enough, you can leave now.

Sir Jerome, werent you here to see Sharon Pierce? Sharon Pierce hasnt even started yet.

You know well that my purpose for visiting is for escort duty. Please leave before the exit becomes complicated.

The girl, Asteria, quietly observed Sharon Pierce from her seat. Even from a distance, Sharons face looked endlessly cold, like ice.

Hmm. Lady Sharon would be sulky if she found out.

Even as she uttered those words, Asterias gaze involuntarily fell on the black-haired boy.

A son of the fallen Blackangers family.

Work has become fun. I think Ive seen enough. Lets go.

The girl smiled and left the measurement hall with the knight.

In a secluded alleyway.

The girl flicked her fingers.

Her once brilliantly white hair transformed into radiant and noble golden locks in an instant.

Knight Jerome asked her.

Are you going back like this?

No.

What?

Im going to enroll here.

But princess what about

Jerome, the knight, looked around in haste.

In response, Asteria grinned.

Dont worry. Ive cast a silence spell around.

Apologies.

Its fine. Anyway.

Asteria took a few steps ahead, clasping her hands behind her back.

Im looking forward to what the son of the Blackangers family will show us in the future.

Meanwhile.

Ian was busy stuffing his pockets.

Shimmering golden coins.

And an expensive sword.

Looking somewhat materialistic, he glanced at the original owners of these items.

Is it serving you well?

Smirking.

Ian laughed.
