Chapter 20 : A Rumor

  Meanwhile, in the secret room where the head of the academy was.

  "I didn't expect that the participant named Rid could repel the small balls using a sword from the academy. Maybe no one could see it, but when he was in the smoke, I could see you repelling the small balls away so that they wouldn't explode where you were standing. This match was really interesting, it wasn't in vain that I paired them as opponents. But besides that, I have another reason why I paired them," said Miss Karina.

  Miss Karina held a note in her hand. Then Miss Karina read the note.

  ”Javier Buston, son of Marcelo Buston. In 1210, the rumor began to spread that he burned his own teacher alive. Rumor has it that he could not control the magic power he released and as a result his own teacher was burned. Not only one, even more than one teacher was burned alive while teaching him. But this incident until now is only called a rumor, because there is no evidence to prove this incident,"

  "And in the same year, a corpse was found on the banks of the Loire River in the San Lucia region. The corpse was the corpse of an Elf woman and in her left chest there was a large hole that penetrated her body. The heart of the corpse was gone. This incident was reported to the San Fulgen kingdom and then the kingdom reported it to Seleria, the Elf country south of the San Fulgen kingdom. After being confirmed, it turned out that the corpse was the corpse of an elite soldier from Seleria who had long disappeared. The Elf King was angry and ordered San Fulgen to find out who the killer was. Because the victim was one of the elite soldiers from the Elf kingdom, it was impossible for an ordinary person to do it. The perpetrator was most likely an elite soldier from the kingdom of San Fulgen. Then the soldiers who served in each Duke's territory were suspected of being the mastermind behind the murder, there was even a possibility that the Duke was the one who ordered them to kill him,"

  "Duke San Lucia was the first to be suspected because the body was found in the San Lucia territory, but Duke San Lucia denied having done it. He argued that even though the body was found in his territory, it was not necessarily their soldiers who did it, Duke San Lucia also said that he had never ordered soldiers in his territory to do cruel things to his people or to people from other races. Then Duke San Lucia argued that maybe the killer came from San Minerva because the area was close to Seleria. The other three Dukes were angry with Duke San Lucia because he still accused other areas even though it was clear that the body was found in his territory. This debate was heated because this murder was certainly not an ordinary murder, apart from the fact that the victim came from another race with an important position that could affect the diplomacy of the two countries, but also because of the loss of the victim's heart. The heart, which also functions as a source or center of Mana in the body, suddenly disappeared,"

  "Some say that the heart of another race can be transplanted into the body of a different race, such as the heart of an Elf being transplanted into a human. For this reason, some suspect that one of the nobles in San Fulgen conducted this experiment. The discussion about this is getting hotter. But because the discussion between the Dukes did not find a bright spot, this discussion was canceled and the murderer was never found. Because of this, the Elf King was very angry and the relationship between San Fulgen and Seleria became strained. The four Dukes became at odds because of the discussion about the murder. Since then until now, at least every year an Elf's body is always found in the rivers in San Lucia. Their condition is always the same, namely there is a hole in their left chest and their heart is also missing. The Elf King is getting angrier about this and it makes the relationship between San Fulgen and Seleria even more strained,"

  "Therefore, because of the many victims in the same condition, the Kingdom officially stated that the victims were not ordinary murder victims, but victims of murder for the purpose of a heart transplant experiment. Then the kingdom focused on finding out where the experiment was carried out so that the perpetrator could be found immediately and the relationship between San Fulgen and Seleria could be harmonious again. However, the Duke of San Lucia insisted that it was not his family who carried out the experiment. The Queen also agreed with the Duke of San Lucia's opinion, although the body of the victim of the experiment was found in the San Lucia area but has not of course if San Lucia did it. The other three Dukes disagreed with their opinion as if they were accusing the perpetrator of being one of the three Dukes' families. And because of this, the relationship between them is not harmonious until now." said Miss Karina after reading the contents of the note.

  "*Sigh this is really complicated," said Miss Karina with a sigh.

  Miss Karina then paused for a moment to think. Then started talking again.

  "When my sister found out that Javier had registered for San Fulgen Akademiya, she immediately ordered me to monitor and find out about his powers. It seems that my sister suspects that Javier is one of the subjects of the transplant experiment based on the rumors that happened to him in the past. Rumors say that he burned his teacher because he couldn't control his fire magic. If it was indeed the result of a heart transplant, it is natural because the body needs to adapt to a different source of mana, especially a source of mana that comes from the Elf race, so the magic becomes uncontrollable because it still needs adaptation. Each race certainly has a different heart and source of mana, If humans get a heart transplant from an Elf, of course the human will have the same mana capacity as the Elf. The Elf's mana capacity is indeed not as good as Fairies and Spirits, but their mana capacity is still better than humans, especially since their kingdom is close to our kingdom. They are easy targets for this experiment,” Miss Karina said.

  Then Miss Karina paused for a moment.

  “But… If you look at this match, this is already strong evidence that Javier got a heart transplant from that Elf warrior, there’s no way a prospective student can use high-impact magic equipped with a booster up to 5x without getting tired,” Miss Karina said while watching the match.

  “I’m sorry for lying to you, Alan. I wanted a fight between Rid and Javier not because I wanted them to settle their previous feud, but because there was another reason. And it seems like I also have to apologize to Rid for using him so that I could get proof of Javier’s strength. Because to be honest, no other participant could fight him if I saw the attacks he launched earlier. Initially I intended to remove him from the test and get proof of his strength at the same time. Maybe there are other participants who can defeat Javier if they go through a normal match but I plan to turn off the danger sensor so I can see how big the attack Javier launched. That’s why I’m afraid that his attack is too big and will cause his opponent to suffer fatal injuries. When Alan came and brought news that there was an interesting participant, that's when I thought of pairing him as Javier's opponent in the third exam, and it turns out my guess was right, you really are an interesting participant, Rid," said Miss Karina who was still watching the match.

  But Miss Karina looked like she was thinking about something.

  "Even so, the power shown by Rid is also unnatural for a prospective student. Is it possible that he is the same as Javier who got a heart transplant from an Elf? But he hasn't shown his magic in this match so I can't judge him yet, he only used magic during the second exam where I didn't see the exam directly. Well whatever it is, I just have to watch him when he graduates to the academy, the priority right now is to get evidence about Javier and get him out of this exam," said Miss Karina.

  "*Sigh you yourself should have come here to watch this match. Besides being able to watch this interesting match, you can also get evidence with your own eyes. The duties as the head of the academy are already very many and now I am told to watch a prospective student. Even though I have decided to leave the nobility, I still have a lot of work. It's tiring," said Miss Karina with a sigh.

  Back to the Arena.

  Javier woke up after he had been lying down due to being kicked by me.

  "You b*st*rd, even though you are just a commoner. How dare you trample on my dignity," said Javier.

  "Is there nothing else you want to say besides saying "commoner"-"commoner" all the time?," I said.

  "From now on, I will go all out to kill you, I don't care about going to the academy again, people who trample on my dignity must die," said Javier.

  Speed ??Boost 10x

  Magic Boost 10x

  Power Boost 10x

  Attack Boost 10x

  "And I forgot 1 boost that I haven't used so far. Because of this, a commoner like you can hurt me easily,” Javier said.

  Defense Boost 10x

  ”With this 10x boost, no one will be able to stop me, not even the supervisors. I will finish you off here, even if you apologize and surrender, I will not forgive you. I will completely burn you to ashes,” Javier said.

  ”......,” I was silent hearing that.
