Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 177: Back To School Again Part 2

[ Prodigal Academy Canteen ]

Goriath and the others are treating Donovan, they eat their meal during recess which makes them full and satisfied after being stressed out in Mr. Crowler's class.

" Phew, Mr. Crowler's is always so tense... " Goriath says as he is very bad at history.

" Tense? " Donovan asks.

" Why do you say that? he only taught history above all else... " Donovan tells Goriath.

" That's the point, Donovan. " Aero says after finishing his meal, sighing.

" Mr. Crowler may be smart and disciplined, but he taught the most uninteresting subject that you could ever teach to kids our age. "

" History Class! "

" You know history class is boring, right? " Aero asks Donovan as Donovan finishes his meal too.

" But, isn't it in the history class where we knew some information about ancient magic? " Donovan asks, for Mr. Crowler's history class, based on his perspective is not some usual boring history class, it was instead an informative history class for the teacher himself always brings interesting topics inside the subject, some topic that if we're looked a little bit more, could help our lives as Donovan tells Aero that he once learned a spell after Mr. Crowler's class.

" ~Vortessimo Hale~... " Donovan says as he did the spell.

< Spell: [Vortessimo Hale (Active) ] -- LVL.3 >

< This is a healing spell, a mediocre healing spell that could heal fatal wounds. >

Donovan uses the spell in front of them, telling them that if it wasn't for Mr. Crowler's class, he wouldn't even know and learned about the spell.

" Whoa, a healing spell!? " Aero was surprised when he sees it.

" Yes, a simple healing spell, one that didn't need difficult chanting in order to activate it... " Donovan tells them.

" I train this after Mr. Crowler finished his class, I approached him to know more about it... "

" You mean he trained you? " Goriath asks Donovan.

" Oh no Goriath, he didn't have time for me, for you should remember that after our class, Mr. Crowler must go to class 2-A for teaching. "

" In that nick of time, he usually directed me to search some sites on the Maginet and even directed me to his own blog regarding magic Histories and Lores. "

" That's why I loved his class, I knew many things from him hehehe... " Donovan tells the two as the two felt stupid whenever they're in Mr. Crowler's class, after all, like all other kids in this generation, history is the last subject they would ever like.

As they talked about that, suddenly Donovan was approached by Fiora, he approached them to tell something, some news that had been discussed recently.

" Hey, you three, had a moment? " Fiora asks them for their time.

" Oh, it's you Fiora, what is it? " Goriath asks her.

" Oh, it's nothing, it's just... "

" Have you guys been prepared? " she asks them.

" Prepared...? " They all responded to her and went silent for a bit.

While being silent to think what did Fiora mean by 'Prepared' so suddenly, they tried to assess their brains to find what she probably meant by now, for in their mind, they all knew what she was gonna say but forget which one.

And after some time.

" Ah! " they finally get it now.

" Is it about the Tournament!? " they all shout at the same moment, asking the same thing which surprised Fiora for a while.

" Ah yes, so you guys do remember? "

" About the 'Elysium Haven Academies National Mage Tournament'... " Fiora says the name of the tournament, the tournament where all children in Elysium Haven's academies must participate.

This tournament is a tournament that comes every ten years and during this year, the Tournament will finally be held again, the tournament where the kids will make their name over the country.

But before they even participate in the national stage, they must first fight their way against others in the academy stage for only the best that could only participate.

" I see, so is the academy really going to make the academy tournament next month? " Goriath asks Fiora about it, he's been wondering about this ever since.

" Yes, around that, but the teachers told me that they still need to prepare some things based on the Government's regulation about the academic tournaments. "

" But aside from that, can I borrow Donovan for a bit? " Fiora asks which made Donovan confused.

" Me...? " Donovan asks Fiora which Fiora replied with a smile.

" Yes you, Donovan... "

" Mr. Crowler ask me to tell you that he and Principal Axel will await you in the principal room, they said they want to talk to you. "

" Hmmm..., that's convenient, I have just been asked by Mr. Crowler recently and he didn't mention that he would call me again...? "

" Well, about that... " Fiora says as she waves her body.

" He told me after I met both the teacher and the principal just now, so don't be surprised if Mr. Crowler didn't mention this earlier for your calling is per Principal Axel's orders. " Fiora tells Donovan, which Donovan thinks is too inconvenient for him.

"( The principal is calling me...? for what though? )" Donovan wonders, wondering if this means that he will have something to do in the academy tournament.

After thinking for a while, Donovan accepts and sprints into the Principal Room, he sprints so fast, leaving Aero and Goriath in the canteen.

" Wow, that's so fast... " Aero says as he felt it.

" Even I wasn't this fast, did he train his speed while on holiday? " Aero asks himself about this.

" It could be, but wasn't he in hospital after the Elven Attack? " Goriath ask as the two talked about Donovan's speed just now, based on what they know him, his movement was not so fast before the Elven Attack.

" Did Donovan acquire a new magic or somewhat? " the two of them wondered about, wondering what happened to Donovan after he came out from the hospital.

...

( Meanwhile. )

Donovan runs to the principal's office, his body feels light now after tons of physical training at home and inside the System Space, he even acquired a new passive.

< Skill: [Light Launching Body (Passive)] -- LVL.1 >

< Increased the User's movement, speed, and agility. >

" I arrived. " Donovan then rams it, to stop his run-in right before entering the Principal's office.

" Okay then... " Donovan prepares himself as he knocks on the door.

* Knock Knock *

" Principal! "
