Spectral Regalia

Chapter 105: Acting Like Children

After two hours of talking to the representatives, Avrin had grown bored of their talk and told them he was feeling tired. Thus, the two had decided to bid him farewell. They each gave him a special crystal card with their respective emblems.

Of course, it was a magical crystal card that acted as a kind of identification, which would help him contact either of the two when he arrived in Altea.

When the two left to alert the others in their organizations, Avrin was alone with the headmaster, who gave a heavy sigh. "Young man, you have caused a chain reaction. To think that my Leymist Academy has such a powerful individual.. I didn't think Norith's was serious, but now I know that a young dragon exists here."

Avrin could only smile. "Headmaster's words are too much for me." The headmaster laughed again before nodding. "I can't say much, Avrin, but judging by your power and your age, ranking you as a Copper student is an error."

The headmaster reached into his drawer and pulled out a small crystal sphere that had a metallic glow. It began to float to Avrin before landing in his hands.

Avrin gazed curiously at it, before the crystal sphere melted and the liquid was absorbed by his outfit. Within moments, the ragged Copper outfit emitted a heavy white light that soon vanished, revealing a beautiful, cleaner piece of clothing.

The adornments that were of Copper color were replaced with a beautiful, transparent, Diamond counterpart. Avrin could guess what it meant.

"Diamond rank is perfectly suited for Leymist's most astounding student. Your presence here will surely skyrocket my academy's reputation. I know this is too much to ask for, but I hope you don't forget my academy and your time here.

Despite it being a bit strange, it can only be my fault." The headmaster, who Avrin came to know as Owen, spoke sincerely.

Avrin wasn't sure what to say, but finally came up with a response. "I will not forget my time here." The headmaster smiled. "I apologize for keeping you here, Herth. You may leave now." Avrin stood up and began to make his way out after bowing. "Oh, and Herth, sleep well. In a week, one of the staff will escort you to the Dark Abyss Chasm entrance with the other students who came within the top 3 of the tournament."

Avrin nodded and silently left. After the door was shut, the headmaster raised a brow and rubbed his beard. "What a mysterious boy..." Once Avrin left, a grin appeared on his face. The moment he left the headmaster's area, the students that saw him enter with a Copper rank outfit and leave with a Diamond rank one could only gasp with awe.

Of course, there were many more students who gathered here, as the tournament had ended with Wynfa coming second and Lazgen coming third, with the first spot reserved for Avrin. Avrin turned somewhat pale as he looked at all the students from different rankings gaze at him and whisper to each other.

Avrin remained calm. To him, these looked like a pack of confused hyenas. He carefully made his way through while keeping his calm look. No one dared stand in his way, but someone went over to him and began to talk.

"Junior Herth, I represent the Callas family. Would you be interested in joining an event in a few days!" From there, several other students rushed over and began to make offers to him, trying to rope him in and gain reputation.

Avrin felt irritated because his personal space had been invaded. He remained quiet while being slowed down, but to his delight, a voice roared out. "What are you monkeys doing trying to irritate friend Herth!" That roar caused everyone to shudder before quickly moving aside.

It was Mahck, who gave a strong glance at everyone before making his way to Avrin and laughing. "Friend Herth, you need to be more forceful with your words, or people will take advantage of you!" Mahck laughed again. Avrin could only helplessly stare at him, who seemed to think this was a joke.
