Harry Stormborn was a proud man, although he wanted to reconcile with his grandchildren, he tried not to show his nervousness. "I was mistaken in not reaching out to you, but you need to understand I was furious when my most talented son was crippled because of someone else." "So you abandoned him?" "I didn't abandon him! he chose this woman over his family although it was all her fault he was crippled!" This time the second man didn't remain silent. "No, it's this woman who chose a cripple over…-

"Take Alice's offer and join her Dream's Peak Academy." Gale's mother repeated her words, but he was still unsure whether he should listen to her. He looked at Lena, he expected her to be against putting him in danger, yet she just nodded in agreement. He sighed with annoyance. She'd attack a magus for hurting him yet send him to a dangerous-sounding academy. How did it make any sense? Well, by now he decided not to be trusting and overly merciful anymore. Although he wouldn't harm or abuse those…

With Jay's choice of joining the Moon Nova Academy, it was time for the main dish; the five representatives looked at Gale and Lena with hungry eyes. Lucas and Alice didn't even hide a spark of lust in their eyes, each with a different target. They already decided to approach Gale first and leave Lena for last. They judged that Lena's prospects were better as they felt her affinities were much higher, and Gale only showed two affinities in his fights. In fact, they didn't even get how Gale got to the…

Steve started explaining to the people present the way the recruiting process worked. "Let me explain; every force interested in taking you in will make an offer to you, and you can pick the one who you think fits you the most. Additionally, everyone who was in the top three is eligible to get one more prize, which the recruiting force must give separately from the offer." He gave them a few seconds to process his words and continued. "If you remain in the kingdom, then it's the kingdom's…

"STOP! FIGHT'S OVER, LENA WINS!" Jaina was carried out of the arena on a stretcher and tears were running down her cheeks. She felt disappointed in herself. Frustrated about losing after being forcibly boosted. Now that she lost, she wouldn't even get the promised three seventh-grade potions, which made it almost certain she was destined to remain in the Mage Phase. Gale and the girls clapped excitedly with the girls as Lena stood victorious in the arena. There was an hour's break, and it was time for…

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH TAKING AN OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN MORE POWER?" Enraged, Jaina screamed and released huge bursts of mana. She was using one casting slot to defend herself with a water sphere against Lena's attacks and one slot to change the beams into water birds. The birds worked similarly to the water beams, in the sense they flew as fast as a bullet, and their hit was blunt, but they were more flexible and unpredictable in their route. The downside was that for the same reasons, they were also…

"Even with the help of the potions, your hopes to get to the magus stage are unfounded. Isn't it better to have leverage on your peers for now and advance to the next stage? This way your rank among them might improve." It was true, but what genius would agree to give up on their dreams to stand at the top for some short-term gains? "Still no. If I can't aspire to the top, I will lose my motivation to get stronger. I'm sorry, but you need to get someone else." "There's no someone else! Tomorrow is…

Water snakes scattered around Violet, waiting for her to land within their reach to bind her. Violet could see them and tried her best to land away from them. Sadly, it was enough to make it too difficult for her to dodge the beams now. Whenever she landed on the ground, a snake would pounce on her and try to bind her, forcing her to use additional moves to dodge the snake too. Eventually, a beam hit her side and threw her in the air, making her lose her breath. A few snakes behind her immediately…

Lareth collapsed on the ground, unable to take another step. The judge defended him with a cage of stone and ended the battle. "She won! Without a single injury, she defeated a genius of the empire that was expected to win the tournament!" The crowd cheered and applauded; the noise was second only to the cheers Gale won. To be fair, Gale couldn't hold back his charm from affecting weaker people while fighting, so when he faced another mage, he looked even more attractive to the crowd. However, not…

Chapter 73 – Lena's Performance Lena's turn arrived and she got on stage, facing a mage named Zach from one of the five kingdoms. He was 45 this year and advanced when he was 32, making him a genius worthy of participating in the tournament. Those who advanced after 35 were just there to fill the spots, and nobody expected much from them. Lena and Zach stood in their spots and the referee signaled them to start fighting. Zach started with a barrage of stones, which Lena countered by forming a…
