The person who arrived was none other than Goren's father, known as Gorgon, a mage ranked as a Peak Magister.
After finding out about his son's death, he rushed over to the Astre continent with an army of ships accompanied by countless troops that served the dragon lineage family.
At least thousands of ships were currently stationary in the air. He came here to ask for an explanation about his son's death. Ignoring all the rules that the Astre continents have set.
Perceiving the situation unfolding beyond the purview of the three elders, Sillavan, Folmon, and Navarre instantaneously appeared in the presence of Gorgon.
"Gorgon, what is the meaning of this?!" Navarre inquired.
"WHAT?! You are really asking me this? All of you just informed me that my son is dead without any explanation of how he even died?!"
"This is what you call the most prestigious academy in the whole Pontiac planet!? What utter garbage."
"I am here to demand answers about my son's death, not have a conversation with you all."
"Please exercise discretion in your language, Gorgon. While we understand and sympathize with the unfortunate situation involving your son, we kindly request that you refrain from making derogatory remarks about the academy." Sillavana stated this with an indifferent tone.
"We regret to inform you that, due to confidentiality agreements, we are unable to disclose the details of the incident in question, as it is related to someone you do not want to go against."
Although many students witnessed Zen kill Goren himself during the beast's outbreak. They refrained from disseminating this information due to their awareness that doing so would have grave repercussions, including the potential eradication and demise of their entire family.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm After all, this was the Raverdieu family; who would dare go against that family on the entirety of the Pontiac Planet? No one has the courage to do so!
The Academy also took proactive measures to prevent the spread of information regarding the incident, ensuring minimal knowledge of the events of that day, limited to a select few individuals.
"No permission, you say?" Gorgon stated that his heart was burning in rage. He commanded his troops to get ready as if he were really going to start a war with the Academy.
Fiona and Xue also came outside after hearing the commotion. They stood on the ground, their gaze fixed on the sky, observing the situation with worry written all over their faces.
They both knew that it was Zen who had taken Goren's life on that fateful day.
'Hey Zen, stay hidden for now. Do not show yourself' Fiona said she was internally hoping Zen did not expose himself, as it would really be bad if he suddenly showed up. Their parents were not on Pontiac Planet right now, so they had to act safe.
What she didn't know was that the Raverdieu family was capable of destroying a Duke family even without Randell and Elle.
Unexpectedly, a commanding voice reverberated throughout the surroundings, proclaiming, "Gorgon, get out here! Stop causing trouble here in the academy."
"Hermione! Tell me what happened to my son please!" Gorgon said, pleading with her to tell her what really happened to Goren, as he was his only son.
Hearing this, Hermione sighed and told him, "Come to my office inside the academy; I will discuss it with you."
"Three elders led him to my office," Hermione said. The three elders then followed what Hermione instructed them, and they were about to guide him to where Hermione's office was located.
"Let's go Gorgon."
"Stay here and wait for me!" Gorgon said, instructing his troops to standby.
In fact, Hermione and Gorgon were acquaintances they met during their teenage days. Since Hermione often wandered around the planet, she met a lot of people along her journey, and Gorgon was one of the people she met.
But just as they were about to head inside the academy…
"Hey, wait, lizard!" a voice spoke. What was said just now made Gorgon frown and turn his head around, only to see a young man with silver hair and eyes.
"What did you call me, kid?!" Gorgon roared, He was already angered by his son's death; now a kid is calling him a lizard? What was this?
This person who spoke was none other than Zen!
A hush once again fell over the entire area.
'What the f*ck is this Zenryx Raverdieu doing?' That was what was on everyone's mind when they saw him emerge out of nowhere and say something outrageous.
Sensing Gorgon's killing intent, Hermione appeared instantly in front of Zen and intended to protect him. "Gorgon, calm down for now, if you don't, you'll be forcing me to make a move!"
Fiona and Xue also became afraid that Zen was about to get killed by Gorgon, so they also went ahead and rushed to Zen's side, even though they probably would just get killed easily too.
"Who is this kid?" Gorgon asked, feeling suspicious that the cold Hermione he knew was protecting someone.
Just right before Hermione could answer, Zen spoke again and questioned, acting confused about what was happening, "Umm, what are you guys doing? I am just looking for my pet lizard. Why are you all looking at me so seriously?"
'WHAAT?!'
Hermione, Gorgon, and the three elders—pretty much everyone present—looked at Zen in astonishment.
"What the hell are you doing, Zenryx Raverdieu?" Hermione questioned while looking straight at Zen, perplexed about the current situation that Zen created by what he said.
"Oh, did you all perhaps misunderstand me, and think I was calling that guy a lizard?" Zen said this while pointing at Gorgon.
"Ah, sorry about that. My apologies. Continue with what you guys were doing. I will be going now since I still have to chase my pet lizard." As he proceeded to walk back inside the building.
Fiona and Xue were also confused, but they also followed him back inside to ask what just happened.
Following that, everyone just regarded what just happened as a misunderstanding and returned to what they were doing.
Hermione watched Zen as he walked away and muttered, "What is this Zenryx doing, Doesn't he realize that this is the father of the person he killed?" She contemplated why Zen did such a thing out of nowhere.
'Lizard?! Lizard, my ass' Hermione finally came to the conclusion that Zen was simply mocking Gorgon.
