CHAPTER - 107
The next day
Narrator: Dav was in the classroom with Kael, once again explaining the important topics for the upcoming exam.
He demonstrated to the students how to activate spells without having to recite them every time, allowing them to practice daily.
After finishing the lesson, Dav began cleaning the blackboard while Kael organized his books.
The students got up, and Dav addressed them:
Dav: Remember, the exam is in two days.
You’ll need to give your best if you want to participate in the tournament and avoid spending the entire summer in remedial classes.
The students shivered and, annoyed, made their way to the cafeteria.
Dav: (Cleaning the blackboard) Kael, later today, we’ll have a visitor in the arena.
Someone will be helping me with my training for a few days, if you don’t mind.
Kael: (Surprised, smiling) If it helps you, I don’t mind at all.
At least Eldrin and I won’t be the only ones suffering anymore.
Dav: (Chuckling) True, ahaha.
Let’s go get lunch.
Cafeteria
Dav: (Sitting down) Eldrin, later—same place.
Selene: (Curious) Is something happening?
Dav: (Looking at his plate) Let’s just say it’s a special training session.
Nothing important.
Selene: (Eating) I see.
Dav: (Glancing at Arthur, thinking) At least these brats get along, so I don’t have to listen to that King complain.
Rugerus: (Looking at the director while eating) Lately, new students keep arriving, and there are fewer and fewer professors, ahaha.
I wonder who’ll be next.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Director: (Chuckling) You should ask the one who keeps kidnapping them—Dav.
Rugerus: (Laughing elegantly) Ahaha, true, true.
Dav: (Chewing) The chicken is really good today with the vinegar and barbecue sauce.
The potatoes are well-cooked, and the bread is always warm.
Iris: (Smiling) I wanted to try something classic, and I knew you’d like it.
Kael: (Eating with his mouth full) Really good.
Eldrin: (Enjoying the bread) This bread—I'm sure you made it.
Iris: (Looking at Selene) Selene made it.
I just explained how, but the rest was all her doing.
Selene: (Embarrassed) I wouldn’t have managed without you, Iris.
Arthur: (Looking at Selene) Very good, Auntie.
Leona: (Looking at Dav) Uncle, can I ask you something?
[Leo, Fin, Elysia, Matteo, Martina, Arthur, and Gabriel were surprised to hear Leona call Dav ‘Uncle’.]
Dav: (Putting more food on Iris's plate) Go ahead.
Leona: (Fork in hand) Will the professors have a tournament too?
Silence for a few seconds.
Dav: (Looking at Leona) Even if there was, I wouldn’t be able to participate.
According to most, it would be too easy for me, and there wouldn’t be any competition.
Only the other professors can take part.
Though, I doubt such a tournament would even exist.
Director: (Chewing with his mouth full) Of course it does.
Silence.
Dav: (Looking at him with a funny face) You’re telling me this so casually?!
(Demonic expression) I would’ve squeezed every single professor dry in the arena to train them!
[The professors were petrified.]
Kael: (Choking) W-What?! -Cough-
Evelyn: (Shouting) Without Dav?!
Valeria: (Sweating) We’re doomed...
Eldrin: (Laughing) We’re doomed, AHAHAH! Our only option is to train with Dav if we don’t want to embarrass ourselves.
Rugerus: (Smirking) Good luck, professors, ahaha.
I can’t participate because I’m the vice director.
Director: (Laughing) We’re excluded, AHAHAH!
Don’t worry, Dav will squeeze you all dry, but registration isn’t mandatory.
Rafael: (Drinking wine) The fact remains that if we don’t participate, we’ll be ridiculed.
Director: (Chewing, looking at Rafael) That’s also true.
Dav: (Looking at everyone) Don’t worry.
(Smirking) I’ll help you.
Fear in the professors' eyes.
Leona: (Thinking) Maybe I should’ve stayed silent...
Now everyone’s tense...
Dav: (Standing up) I’m off.
See you in the arena, Kael, Eldrin.
Inside the arena
Narrator: When Kael and Eldrin arrived, they saw a beautiful woman in her thirties who resembled Dav.
They immediately thought she must be his sister and approached to greet her.
From the hidden stands, Iris, Valeria, Selene, and Lucrezia observed the scene, trying to figure out who the woman was.
With funny expressions, they cursed Dav.
He suddenly felt a chill down his spine and started sneezing.
Kael: (Greeting) We’re here.
Who is this lady, if I may ask?
Dav: (Funny face) My younger sister, Lexia De Lion.
Lexia: (Extending her hand) Nice to meet you, I’m Lexia.
Kael: (Shaking her hand, embarrassed) I’m Kael, pleased to meet you.
[Evelyn was watching from a distance with a funny and irritated expression.]
Eldrin: (Shaking her hand, laughing) Pleasure to meet you, Miss Lexia, ahaha.
Dav: (Sitting on the ground) Alright, today, you’ll do what I asked over the phone.
It’ll be a bit of a complicated process.
Lexia: (Funny, demonic face) I’m used to getting inside your head, don’t worry, ahaha.
Dav: (Irritated, funny face) Yeah...
