"As long as we don''t fight, everything will be solved."
"Are you stupid? He clearly says that it will be an immediate marriage? I don''t even understand why he suddenly does this…"
"No. He only said that not epting my challenge, losing, or winning the fight would result in marriage. If you can find an excuse to not fight, everything will be solved.
"That''s why we have to find a way to make it look like we don''t need to fight. Maybe sickness or something? But that won''t work. We need something big, especially from your side. You can think of something, right?"
"Why don''t you think of something? You are good at this, no?" Noelle felt something suspicious.
"Sure, I can do that. But there will be someone who needs to keep your grandfather in check. I was nning to do that with all this terrorist stuff, but I guess I have to divert my focus elsewhere…"
"…" Noelle contemted. It would be troublesome not only for her but also for the school if Nathan stopped working on this new case.
It seemed she really needed to do it whether she did it alone or with someone else, and she had to seed.
Noelle nodded. "Alright. I will think of something. You can focus on those problems for the time being."
"Alright. Anyway, I have passed the message from your grandfather. I need to visit my teacher." Nathan waved his hand and walked to Vivian''s office, leaving the entire student council speechless.
"What the hell is that? Noelle. I heard that your grandfather and father are doting on you… And because you keep beating all your fiance candidates, there is no one approaching you anymore," Regynar asked.
"True. I have heard about it. Because of that very reason, you''re able to go to the army after your graduation. This is so sudden…"
Flora scratched the back of her head. "Don''t tell me. Your grandfather is trying to seize Nathan? The condition is for you to marry someone, right? And only by winning in the Summoners War do you end up marrying Nathan.
"If you think about this, doesn''t this mean your grandfather is trying to marry you to Nathan? That someone can be Nathan, no?"
Noelle narrowed her eyes. "I don''t find him repulsing, but I don''t have any intention of marrying someone… at least not right now. All I wish for is for me to be a sword master first before thinking about that. That''s why I don''t want this. Help me think about this, Flora."
"Well, I will help. The graduation is still 8 months from now, so we can think of something. Anyway, this is weird, and I feel like something is going on." Flora waved her hand, assuring Noelle.
After giving them a headache, Nathan went straight to Vivian''s office.
"Master. I have dealt with the problem in that city."
"Oh! Good work. Anything you would like to report?"
"Nothing." Nathan shook his head. "I''m just wondering if you''re going to join us or not."
"Sure. As I told you before, I''ll be joining you in thest three days. That means four days from now."
"Can''t you go there faster? I mean, I am nning to absorb a lot of mature ss cores."
"A lot of mature ss cores?"
"Yes."
"How many?"
"Over 20 cores."
Vivian frowned, thinking, ''He must have robbed someone.''
Still, Nathan''s body would have a hard time enduring it. If Nathan overdid it a bit, he might be in trouble.
Due to the amount of Ena in each core, the reaction from the mature ss core was bigger. That was why Nathan asked her to apany him, making sure everything was alright.
"I don''t really mind going there early. But are you doing something crazy over there? Who did you scam?"
"What do you mean scam? I am a morally upright person."
Vivian looked at him with a judging gaze,pletely not believing him.
"It''s a negotiation. I did negotiate for all those cores." Nathan shrugged.
Vivian sighed. "In that case, I will join you in two days. I have seen the report as well, especially regarding the destruction of the mansion. I''m going there to fix it up."
"Anything else?"
Nathan thought for a moment. "There is something I want to ask this whole time."
"What is it?"
"Do we have apetition with other schools?"
"Are you talking about thepetition to see who is better?"
"No. I''m talking about apetition between all academies to see who is the best academy. How do you even know the Frexia Academy is the number one academy in the first ce?"
"Of course, resources, teachers, and assets." Vivian tilted her head in confusion. "Still, apetition, huh?"
"Yeah."
"There is none currently. Right now, there''s no need topete with them that way. After all, we are being considered the number one because of our students, reputation, and all that contribution to the world. Rather than having a shallowpetition, which can easily change every year or every few years depending on the talented students you currently have, it''s better topete in a muchrger area."
"Understandable." Nathan nodded in agreement while adding inwardly, ''Still, nopetition, huh? Whenever I read a story with an academy setting, they will definitely havepetitions between academies. 9 out of 10 cases, it will be a tournament. In this academy, there is only Summoners War…
''Then again, after listening to her exnation, it''s much more reasonable. In the end, they will have to depend on the talented students whoe and go. That ranking will change every time the tournamentes. Rather than having such a shallow achievement, it''s better to have a reputation all around the world. Well, winning it again and again will have different results, and these tournaments are usually used so that they can bless talented students with more resources…''
Nathan shrugged. ''Never mind. It''s better not having a tournament.''
"Anyway, you should go there first. What if those two girls cause ruckus over there because of their rivalry?" Vivian waved her hand.
Nathan chuckled. "Don''t worry. It won''t happen, but yeah, I don''t think I need anything else. I will just take my leave after giving my report."
Vivian looked surprised when she heard it was fine, as though Nathan had everything under control. It just gave her a weird thought.
