Time passed as minutes turned into hours and hours into days…
In a blink of an eye, twenty-five days passed, and the tournament commenced.
Dan and Erica already went to the 2nd National Magic Academy and participated in their tournament and were winning. There were many students with fairies, but one rule got imposed on the tournament at the last second: students are not allowed to use fairies in tournament fights.
However, this was actually useful, and the students had no objection because they didn't want their fairy spirits to get injured or die by accident. They could wear battle armor that protects them, but fairy spirits couldn't.
So today, Dan and Erica were fighting in the 2nd National Magic Academy tournament while Vernisia was fighting in the 4th National Magic Academy tournament.
As for Zevien? He was planning the launch of the Spell Gauntlet since the product was almost ready and just needed to set up a production line to produce spell stones. Moreover, the sales of the Realm of Spirit game cards increased significantly after the government opened Fairy Summoning Centers.
The people were super excited to have gotten fairy spirits that resembled their cards. More people started buying card packs, and stadium devices as the game became even more popular.
By now, Zevien had 1.3 billion Lopax credits in his bank account. He had also paid his debt to Raven.
Vernisia and Zevien's bank accounts were shared, so they had a total of 1.7 billion Lopax credits.
Dan and Erica had also shared their bank accounts and had 800 million Lopax credits in their bank account.
…
The tournament was over in one day after lasting for a total of 8 hours, including the breaks. There were not many participants since the requirement to enter had increased significantly. It was a plain 1v1 tournament in six groups: A, B, C, D, E, and F.
Vernisia was in group B, and she won a quota. Tigger also won in the A group while the other four groups had 2nd and 3rd-year students as winners. Sophia was eliminated in the final round of Group F as she wasn't able to beat a 3rd-year senior; she was the closest to winning among 1st-year students.
Dan and Erica also managed to win quotas in the 2nd National Magic Academy and returned to Starlight city on the same day at night.
Zevien, Vernisia, Dan, and Erica gathered at the orphanage and had a party. The kids were happy, and mother Helena just watched them while feeling peace in her heart and a bit sad because this party was also a farewell party.
Tomorrow, all the winners were going to the Lankrena region to enter the Skyward Academy in advance; to arrange their lodging. The opening ceremony starts four days later.
"Oh yeah, that sister of Galen didn't come as one of the exchange students like she and her now dead brother said," Dan snickered before he asked Vernisia, "what happened to the Gio family? I know they are over but do you know what is their current state?"
"City Lord Cargil executed all top members of their family with proof of their crimes. Although some people who had ties with the Gio family became his enemies, nobody had the guts to have an open conflict with him," Vernisia said with a smile.
"Yep," Zevien said while laughing and nodding. "If they want to have a stable footing in the country, they can't go against the government in the first place. Because of me, old man Cargil now holds an even higher position in the government, so it's all good."
"Well that's good," Erica nodded before she turned to look at the kids playing in the garden. The current garden was very big and had many things, so it was like a small park. "It's time to say farewell to the kids. You won't be meeting them anytime soon after this party."
Zevien wryly smiled and nodded as he stood up. "Let's go and tell them."
…
After hearing that they won't be seeing their big brother Zevien and big sister Vernisia for a long time, the smaller kids started crying while the eldest twelve years old kids also had watery eyes.
But they only cried to express their sadness. They weren't stubborn and were understanding enough to not tell them to stay here by throwing tantrums.
"Rocky, as their big brother, you have to take care of them, okay?" Zevien said to Rocky, the twelve-year-old kid with short black hair.
"Leave it to me, big brother," Rocky nodded as he thumped his chest with determination.
"Big brother and big sister, when will you visit us?" Rayna asked with tearful eyes.
Vernisia grabbed the cute six-year-old Rayna into her arms and said with a smile, "don't worry, we will video call you often."
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Zevien, why don't we take all the kids outside and have some fun in that big park at west? We haven't had a chance to go out with them for a long time now," Erica suggested.
The kids also excitedly nodded as they wanted to go there. So Zevien, Vernisia, Erica, and Dan took the kids in their cars and went there. Mother Helena didn't want to go, but since she would be alone in the orphanage, Zevien convinced her as well, and everyone went to the Fantasy Fun World to enjoy their time with the kids.
…
In the morning, the winners were called to a mini-hall in the academy since it was time for them to go with the envoy of the Skyward Academy who came to pick them up on a special rare ride.
Inside the hall, Zevien, Vernisia, Erica, Dan, Tigger, Helin, Jabul, Roman, and Leena faced the envoy, a beautiful woman wearing a white dress with a light-blue embroidery design.
"So, they are the winners? You have more students than the quota we have given you," Baishi said as she looked at the eight students with piercing eyes and smiled, "it seems that two of your students won quotas from the exchange program, but there's still one more."
"I am coming by using this," Zevien said as he took out a medallion.
"I see," Baishi nodded before turning around, "well. Then, let's get going."
