"Hello... I am Hera Longbern The headmaster of this Academy." The woman behind curtain the introduced herself.


    She stood up from her seat and lifted the curtain, allowing me to see her.


    She is a woman of great beauty. Her figure was slender and graceful, and her movements were elegant and refined.


    Her long hair cascaded down her back in soft waves, and her clothing was tasteful and sophisticated.


    She is in herte forties and appeared as if time had stopped affecting her, with all signs of ageing stopped on her body.


    Her porcin white skin, along with her overall fairplexion made her look as if she was frozen in ce, unaffected by the impure, mundane world.


    Her ageless beauty was evident in every aspect of her appearance.


    Her ears perked up the moment I entered the headmaster''s office, and her grey eyes, reminiscent of a deep, frozenke, gazed at me with great interest.


    "Have a seat, Cadet Lucas." after gazing for a moment, she spoke and brought me back to my reality.


    "Ah, Y-yes mam," I said to her while I fumbled at my words.


    Give me some ck, will you? It''s not like every day I meet important women like her.


    I sat on the nearby sofa and there was tea and some biscuits.


    ''Looks like this was going to take some time.'' I thought as the Headmasterster seat opposite me.


    Mam, may I know the reason why you have taken out your precious time and invited me?" I asked her bluntly without rounding my words.


    I knew she didn''t like to waste her time so it''s better to get to the point from the beginning.


    "Straight to the point without wasting any time. I like that." Hera said taking a sip of the tea.


    My lips twitched on hearing her words. Unable to find any words to speak, I just gave a faint smile.


    "Before that, I wanted to ask you a certain question,"  Hera spoke as her lip curved upwards giving a faint smile that can make anyone mesmerize.


    I shook his head, as no not to get distracted by her tricks.


    ''She is teasing me on purpose trying to test me. The moment I looked at her with any improper thought, will be the moment I will face my death.''I thought as I clenched my fist underneath the table to maintain my rational thinking.


    "You can ask me anything mam. I will try my best to answer all your questions." I spoke maintaining a neutral, solemn look.


    "First thing, As Headmaster of this Academy I have all the information of the students here and of course, you are also on that list," Hera spoke as she seeped a tea from her cup.


    I clenched my fist further while trying to maintain a poker face.


    "Can you please tell me what it has to your question?"


    She gave me a nk look before she answered me.


    "It has everything to it, Cadet Lucas. For example, you were [ G+] ranked when you entered the academy. Within two months you were able to reach [E-] rank, that is practically impossible with your [B] rank potential isn''t it?"


    She is right not everyone can break through rank this quickly as I did, it''s all thanks to shards of Luminar crystal I obtained but she doesn''t need to know that.


    Even if I told her, she would not believe me, she just assumed that I was a fallen human.


    Seeing that I did not answer her she nodded her head and continued to speak.


    "Next question is about Samuel Ascal, the fallen human, who you manage to kill."


    Now this main topic she wanted to ask me about. I knew that Samuel''s topicing and fortunately, I was prepared.


    "10 students were under the control of Samuel''s spell and most of them didn''t remember anything but one student remembered something and that student is Liz. During the investigation, she said that it was Isabe who saved her and the other student is that true?"


    "It''s true," I replied to her as I nodded my head. I would be in big trouble if not for Liz''s statement. Thankfully she just remembered Isabe.


    "I see. So what are you saying after fighting against 10 students Isabe goes to fight Samuel?"


    I nodded again, not saying anything to her besides that.


    "Then we''re you came in all of this, in video footage your body shape was worse than others If you had not fought anyone else then there is no way your body would be in worst case condition. You have to answer this one and the previous question of mine Cadet Lucas."


    If I averted her gaze while speaking, she would surely think that I was trying to hide something.


    "Mam Before entering Nova Academy, My father had brought me an [Elixir]. This Elixir is nothing that special, it just cleans my mana core foundation nothing more. After entering Nova Academy, I stayed behind others in the training ground, practising till 3. a.m. in the morning every day. That is one of the reasons why broke through this fast."


    "I also fought against a fallen human in ''Artefacts Room'' Of Eldoria city. I gained a lot of experience from that incident."


    "Hunting in the dungeon along with the members of my team 7 was one of the greatest factors that had contributed to the increase in my strength. Facing real-time monsters where sometimes our lives can be on the line has helped me increase mybat experience and battle awareness."


    "As you already know Samuel Ascal destroyed all of the CCTV cameras so you don''t know how Samuel Ascal beat me to death. It''s thanks to Isabe that I was able to kill him if she had not given me her mana before fighting Samuel we would all be dead right now.


    After receiving mana from Isabe I was able to move and use my sword art I was just waiting for the right moment we''re Samuel lowered his guard and when he did that I killed him."


    After I finished speaking there was silence in the room.
