First, that person will be the male protagonist’s enemy throughout the entire storyline.
Or…. that would be a second main character.
Lathel saw the expression of the young man named Harris and felt like he was also some kind of male protagonist following the motif of revenge.
Now he is weak, so he will be recognised and helped by Moharo and the other teachers in the magic academy.
Besides, Harris also possesses the ability to evolve, Lathel thinks that Harris will quickly become stronger to take revenge.
However… one thing that Lathel found strange was the actions of Alec and Harris earlier. 𝘳.𝑐ℴ
Do they know each other?
And… will Alec and Harris ever work together?
Lathel sighed tiredly. A male protagonist like Alec made him feel extremely tired.
Now another person has appeared. If Harris is a male protagonist and can cooperate with Alec, Lathel is afraid that his life will be troubled.
“It seems you are not happy,” Cauldron spoke up.
“No.” Lathel shook his head and said: “I just feel a little worried.”
Claire stood next to him, saw his expression, and asked: “Lathel, are you okay?”
He nodded slightly and smiled, indicating he was fine.
“Next!”
Hearing that, Lathel walked to the stone platform and, like everyone else, placed his hands on the glass ball in front of him.
Below, Lathel did not know that many people were paying attention, including, of course, Amleth, Farmyrth, Alec, and even Harris.
Especially Harris, seeing Lathel appear, his eyes flashed with cold murderous intent, and he clenched his hands so tightly that they turned white.
Harris raised his voice and muttered: “Lathel, let me see how strong you are. Or are you just a dog raised inside a golden castle?”
The glass ball suddenly shone brightly, startling Lathel. He then thought to himself: ‘Not good. Could this glass ball be able to see through the cover that my skills have created?’
But right after that, the light from that glass ball suddenly disappeared, then reappeared, then disappeared again.
This process repeated continuously, making the glass ball look like a flashing neon light in bars.
Moharo was also surprised. This was the first time he had encountered this situation. He didn’t know how to handle it.
Lathel now let go of the crystal ball and raised his head to look up into the air. There were still no words appearing above, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
“It seems like this ball has some problems.” Lathel smiled and spoke, his face showing a very calm expression.
Moharo glanced at the badge on Lathel’s chest, which represented his status as ‘Duke’, and frowned.
‘His status is that of a Duke, he certainly has a letter of introduction. Then…’
Moharo frowned, not knowing how to handle it. He said: “Wait a minute, I’ll replace it with another glass ball.”
“Ah! So… If I tell you my talent, will you consider me tested?” Lathel smiled and said, his smile was extremely sincere.
Moharo took out another crystal ball, intending to let Lathel use this one, but when he heard him say that, he replied: “Hm… then tell me your talent first.”
“Fire Rank D and Earth Rank E,” Lathel replied with a smile.
Hearing that, Moharo frowned: ‘Hm… this kid seems to be hiding something. But he’s the Duke, so I can’t investigate too thoroughly.’
‘But the talent he said is also reasonable. However…’
While Moharo was thinking, a person wearing light white armour quickly ran onto the stone platform, approaching Moharo.
Then he bowed his head and said something that Lathel couldn’t hear. Only Moharo, standing next to him, could hear what the man said.
After listening, Moharo frowned, his face changing from surprise to disbelief, then nodded: “I know what to do.”
The other man also sighed and nodded, then quickly left.
Moharo looked at Lathel with a friendly smile, completely different from just now: “Good! I already know your talent, you can leave.”
“Thanks!” Lathel smiled and nodded. He didn’t know what the man had said just now, but as long as he could hide his talent, that was enough.
“Wait!” Suddenly, a voice rang out, catching everyone’s attention.
Alec frowned and shouted: “I feel like everyone here has the right to know his talent. Why don’t you check his talent that allowed him to pass this exam?”
The crowd was startled when they heard that, and they began to realise that this round of competition was a bit unfair.
No, to be more precise, Moharo is a bit unfair.
“That’s right, everyone has to disclose their talents. So why doesn’t he need to disclose his talents?”
“I feel the same way. Even though he is a noble, since he has come to this place, everyone must be treated fairly.”
“Could it be that the person overseeing the exam now also favours the nobles?”
“Hurry up, let him test his talent.”
“That’s right, reveal his talent publicly, quickly!”
Moharo heard the crowd below, frowned, and shouted: “Silence!”
Moharo’s words turned into a shockwave that swept around like a hurricane, blowing towards everyone.
“Are you doubting my decision?” Moharo’s voice was filled with anger and carried a bit of pressure that made everyone scared.
After all, they were just students; how could they resist a high-
level magician from the magic academy?
However, Alec was not afraid at this time. He still stood up straight, clasped his hands together, and calmly said: “Of course, I trust you very much, but all of us made our talents public, so why is he not allowed to publicly reveal his talent?”
“I heard that the Empire’s Karol magic academy is a fair place where nobles and other academies are treated the same.”
“It seems… I was wrong. This place only serves and favours the nobles.”
Moharo frowned and said: “What do you want?”
Alec smirked and said: “If that crystal ball has problems, use another one, let him test his talent again.”
Moharo glanced at Lathel as if hearing his opinion. Lathel also nodded, smiled, and said: “Good! Of course, I agree.”
Moharo nodded, took out another glass ball, looked at Alec, and asked: “Do you want to check this ball?”
Alec frowned and asked Medos: “Teacher, do you feel anything unusual in that glass ball?”
Medos sighed and replied: “That glass ball and the previous glass ball being used were both normal. However, the rank of this new crystal ball is only C; if Lathel’s talent is B, then it won’t be able to be tested.”
“Hahaha… that would be even better,” Alec said smiling.
“Why?” Medos asked confusedly.
Alec explained: “I think he cheated; that’s why the crystal ball doesn’t work.”
“However, this orb has a lower rank, so he can cheat. As long as his talent is different from what I know, I can denounce him immediately.”
“At that time, hehe… he will be so humiliated that he won’t dare come to this place anymore.”
“Even if he continues to study at this academy, everyone will know that he is a liar.”
Medos felt that Alec’s plan was very good, but he still felt that something was off.
“Are you…” Medos asked again: “Are you sure this plan will succeed?”
“Of course!” Alec said confidently: “However…”
“I have one more condition,” Alec spoke up.
Moharo frowned and asked: “What else do you want?”
“Very simple, what did he say his talent was earlier?” Alec smiled and asked.
Without waiting for Moharo to speak, Lathel immediately replied: “Fire Rank D and Earth Rank E.”
“Hahaha… well, what if… wait! What did you just say? Alec was startled and asked again.
Lathel also said, in confusion: “Fire Rank D and Earth Rank E. Is there something wrong?”
Alec: “…”
‘Are you serious? Won’t you cheat? Why are you so honest?’
At this moment, Alec felt as if he had just punched a pillow. He thought Lathel would cheat, but in the end, Lathel did not cheat, as he revealed his exact talent.
How did Alec know that this was Lathel’s true gift?
Because Alec knew that Lathel only possessed one talent, Earth Rank F, but later, Lathel received the Anaconda Flame from Alec, it was also extremely normal for Lathel to possess another rank-D talent, which was fire.
Furthermore, thanks to Anaconda Flame, it is also entirely possible for his earth talent to evolve from rank F to E.
However, Earth talents, whether Rank F or E, are useless and nothing worth paying attention to.
‘So… Lathel didn’t cheat, there was a problem with that crystal ball.’
Moharo felt a bit uncomfortable at this time and said: “Alec, you have repeatedly hindered the talent test, what do you want to do?”
Alec was embarrassed. He gritted his teeth and stammered: “I… I… I just want this round to be fairer.”
The people listening to Alec also felt a bit foolish for listening to him.
If Lathel wanted to cheat, wouldn’t he have cheated to rank B or higher? What the heck are ranks D and E?
Is there someone who cheats and puts ranks D and E? There’s even the useless earth element.
If Lathel hadn’t said this himself, everyone here would suspect that Alec was slandering Lathel.
“Huh! If you continue to speak up and prolong this round, I can kick you out of here, understand?”
Hearing what Moharo said, Alec felt angry and embarrassed, but in the end, he had to control himself: “I understand!” .𝒎
Moharo glanced at Lathel apologetically: “Sorry, Duke Lathel, can you check again?”
“Of course!” Lathel said, smiling. He also asked Cauldron and immediately knew that this crystal ball was only Rank C, so he was confident that his skill could work as smoothly as possible.
Perhaps because the rank of the previous crystal ball was B, his skills couldn’t work well.
However, this time is different.
Just as Lathel thought, the glass ball appeared yellow and red, and a line of text also appeared in the air.
“Fire – Rank D; Earth – Rank E. Recommended occupation: noble.”
Lathel: “…”
Moharo: “…”
Everybody: “…”
Alec: “…”
