Chapter 23: The Scholar Exam
Angelo Yulio.
A grand mage who reached the fifth tier at the age of fifty-five.
A wandering mercenary mage for his entire life, hunting monsters without compensation, he was known as the saint of the streets.
A warrior whose fighting spirit could humble even the most combative. A colossal presence that the world reveres. A living legend among mages.
And now, he was sweating profusely, his head hung low.
The position of Dean of Elfenbine was as heavy as that of any minor kingdom’s monarch.
Moreover, Dean Yulio was one of the continent’s most formidable individuals in terms of personal combat power.
So, who could make such a person tremble?
“What is going on, Dean?”
Sitting back on a plush cushion, lightly tapping her fingers on the armrest, was Ryoz Elfenbine, the Tower Master.
“Well, you see… um…”
“There was a disturbance on campus.”
“The main culprits were the tournament winner and the runner-up, correct?”
“Both were students personally guided by you, right?”
“Yes…”
This was the terrifying aspect of the Tower Master.
She was a serene, almost spirit-like presence, someone who was an emblematic figure revered by all.
She rarely involved herself in the tower’s affairs, leaving many professors wondering if she truly existed.
Yet, conversing with her revealed that she had eyes and ears everywhere within the tower.
In this place, at least, there was nothing she didn’t know.
“It seems you were even present at the scene of the disturbance, Dean.”
What do you think?
