My Soul card is a Reaper
Chapter 89 The Inspector From WAMO Headquarters Part-1Upon hearing Principal Barton's statement, silence filled the room. No one expected such a situation when even a couple of top academies arrived and the academy is only a day from the annual tournament too.
"Heavenly Academy is causing trouble for us?" All the teachers assembled in the staff room frowned.
Principal Barton continued, "I didn't tell you all about it before, it ain't the first academy that lodged a complaint against us. Central Academy was the first one to complain, on the basis of qualifications lacking.
After the committee rejected their request because of the rules, the situation was calmed down. But now, as the Heavenly Academy's request of changing the venue has been rejected, they threatened to boycott the league itself.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom You know that despite not being the most powerful academy like Dragon Academy, the Heavenly Academy has the most influence due to the royal family members.
I guess the committee must have taken consideration about it and send me a message about how they are deploying a representative who will observe our academy facilities, students, teachers, then, judge whether we are allowed to host or not."
"What if we fail?" A teacher gulped in worry. Like the rest of the staff, he was also looking towards this tournament and didn't expect there would be trouble.
Principal Barton replied that the venue will be shifted to the capital city where the country's prestigious Egrein Academy is located.
"What do you think the representative will look for?" Vice Principal, Sahara asked her husband.
"Our facilities aren't pale in comparison with any Arcana academy out there." The Principal replied while feeling proud about it. His face once again turned serious as he pointed out, "The only issue here is the quality of students. We have far too few rank-5 students compared to all the academies that were participating in the league.
He may point out that as a host, our academy can't be the weakest in terms of geniuses. Leonard Light is the only person who can solve this issue. With his combat ability that is at least rated as rank-6, we can make an argument."
"What about your disciple?" All of a sudden Exea brought Azzy into the topic, "I heard that the fifth prince marked him as his rival and constantly claim that student Azrael is stronger than himself. With two students, don't we have a better chance?"
"No…" Principal Barton quickly rejected firmly. "Until I confirm that he can perfectly control his strength, I refuse to let him participate in any kind of tournament. It's my decision as not only his Master but also the Principal of the academy."
"Until he stays in this academy… that is…" Uphiar let out a comment while stroking his twisted, black goatee.
"What do you mean by that?" Rubin asked him with a frown on his face. The rest of the members also looked at him.
"I guess you didn't hear the news that student Azrael went on a date with a girl from Moon Academy. The whole academy is talking about it. It seems she's his childhood friend. When I inquired about the girl's background this morning, I found out that she's the fourth disciple of Venerable Calidius."
"Venerable Calidius?" Principal Barton stood up in shock and so was his wife. The remaining people were clueless about who this Calidius is. However, since only rank-9 or above Arcana Masters can be addressed with Venerable before their names, they were still surprised.
"That would mean she's the junior sister of the Crown prince of Hildegard?" It's no secret to the world regarding Vann's origins. However, he still didn't expect there's another monstrous genius in the Moon Academy's lineup.
Uphiar nodded, "Yes. I heard that Prince Vann was interested in him. I already reported you about this."
Looking at the principal, he continued, "In the morning, their team's instructor came to me and inquired about student Azrael. He also expressed intentions of letting Azrael have a friendly spar against Prince Vann. You told me to reject it. However, before I do that, we were called to the meeting."
The Principal's face darkened instantly as he clenched his fist. Lack of control isn't the only reason he put a ban on Azzy. In the eyes of others, Azzy is surely his disciple.
However, Azzy never acknowledged him as his Prime Master. So, he has the same status as Rubin, a teacher to Azzy.
He knew that Azzy will surely acknowledge another person as his master but what he worried about is that the Prime Master position will go to someone far stronger than himself. Then, his existence to Azzy will diminish to the extent of disregard.
After all, he still can't forget two of his genius disciples who later abandoned him after becoming a disciple of a peak rank-8 and a nine-9 respectively. That's why he can't let Azzy go until he graduates from the academy. Until then, he keeps on supporting him to the fullest.
<strong>Meanwhile, at the nation of Vesna;</strong>
At a random location of Vesna, a neutral nation that is home to every nation's embassy, headquarters to several giant corporations and organizations, a young man was traveling on the road in his hundred million credits sports car.
Its eye-catching appearance attracted the attention of several people. With Arcana Masters traveling on their flying cards everywhere, it's rare for someone to buy this pricey vehicle.
Inside the vehicle, three hot models, one on the front and the two on the back were also seated.
The models in the backseat were kissing each other while the model in the front was also doing some indecent thing. The young man had a look of enjoyment on his face and yet, he was managing to drive at 150 km/hr without losing any concentration on the road.
Without any warning, an item card suddenly appears before him, making the rest of the girls stop their activities and look at this playboy.
He stopped the car on the side of the road. "When will these guys update in technology? Aren't these cellular phones more comfortable?"
He grumbled while crushing it with his soul energy.
Immediately, an image of a middle-aged man appeared in his mind and a message followed by it. "Come to the Headquarters, at this instant."
"Oh boy, not again." Shaking his head with a sigh, he looked at the three of them and said, "Sorry ladies, hotel canceled. I need to go for important work."
"How about we have our fun here then…" The model in the front whispered in his ears and immediately sat on him without prior warning.
"Sure," he grinned planting a kiss on her lips.
With his vision blocked, he reached out to some buttons and pressed them.
"Flight mode, Activated."
"Invisible mode, Activated."
All of a sudden, the car speed up and flew into the air up to a thousand hundred meters while becoming invisible.
<strong>WAMO Headquarters, Silver city;</strong>
Reaching the Headquarters, he summoned a platinum grade storage card and stores the car inside it as there's no parking space in the building. After all, it's the association for Arcana Masters which was built back when the vehicles aren't even invented.
As the majority of Arcana Masters prefer flying or teleporting over traveling by road vehicles because of huge traffic, they didn't bother to add during the renovation. However, those who prefer to come by vehicles can still park outside. There's a public parking lot nearby.
After a while, the young man reached the President's office.
He saluted, "Your orders, Sir?"
Unlike his earlier playboy demeanor, he now had the look of a soldier.
"Neal, You are being deployed to the Aclein Academy for an inspection." The President ordered him without wasting any time.
"Eh? Aclein Academy?" He was taken aback.
"Yes." The President nodded, "Any problem?"
"Nothing, Sir. Please continue."
The President continued with his orders, "I don't care what you do. Either make sure that the Academy lacked qualifications to host the Champions League or bring me a solid report that can make the Heavenly Academy not challenge our decision, again."
"Understood." The young man saluted once again before turning around to walk away.
As he left the building, he took out his supercar from the storage card once again and sat inside it. However, the car didn't move for a while.
Neal just sat silent as he took out a photo from his wallet. It contains the image of a small boy and an old man.
The old man was none other than Barton. His eyes flickered, "Master…"
