Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 839: Handling the Results

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The magnetic male voice and straightforward worry made both Donnie and the fatty felt slightly startled. When they turned around, they saw that Karl was watching the tower that was on fire with his good-looking eyebrows curved in a frown, which made Donnie and the fatty want to iron them out.

The fatty did not know the reason behind it, but Donnie clearly knew that such a beautiful “girl” who could catch people’s attention at any time was, in fact, the one who caused this whole accident. He weighed his words a bit and said, “Karl, the college won’t punish you as long as you are sure that you stuck to the rules. Did you break any?”

“No, I didn’t.” Karl shook his head hard and then lowered it. “I thought the senior-rank magic tower would prevent this from happening. The college would know it was me for sure…”

Donnie released a sigh of relief. At least, Karl never broke any rules.

He could use this to comfort Karl, although he was not sure if the college was going to kick Karl out or not.

“So what? You did nothing wrong, and… Ummm… they wouldn’t dare to treat you unfairly…” Donnie was being quite ambiguous. He was referring to Karl’s powerful background. Kicking such a student out without a proper reason would bring great pressure to Heidler Magic College.

Although Donnie could not identify the magic items that Karl was wearing, he could sense the horrible power within them. Donnie believed that even some major nobles or senior-rank sorcerers could not afford them.

Karl nodded slightly as Donnie’s comforting words more or less worked. He said to himself, “Lu Xiaoen taught me so many lessons; one more isn’t a big deal…”

Lu Xiaoen? That was a very strange name that went against the grammar of the common tongue. Donnie wondered if Lu Xiaoen was Karl’s father or elder brother.

“You did it?!” the fatty asked in great surprise. He was just listening to their conversation like he was invisible.

Karl took a glance at the fatty, and his silver-purple eyes suddenly became sharp. Donnie wasn’t affected, but the fatty felt the great pressure as there was already sweat on his forehead.

He dared not to ask anymore.

At this time, Shirley from the Duchy of Orvarit walked to them and smiled as she just survived a disaster.

“Donnie, thanks to you, we’re all saved!”

“I was… was lucky…” Donnie suddenly stammered when facing such a compliment from a girl.

Karl murmured in a low voice, “I’d also remind you all if he hadn’t seen it…”

Shirley did not hear him because of the lightning and thunder. She smiled at Donnie and said, “Yes, you were lucky that you saw it. But you helped us get out. Compared to how you look now, you looked very different when you were giving commands.”

Donnie’s face flushed slightly. Like Sammy, he scratched his head a bit and said, “I was also saving myself.”

Suddenly, the deafening clap of thunder was cut off, and everything had fallen into a great silence.

The apprentices all looked up and saw the gray fog pouring out from the sky, which had taken away all the horrible power from the dark clouds.

“They used mythal… Finally…” said the fatty thoughtfully.

As for what the mythal was in Heidler Magic College, the apprentices did not have a clear clue. They heard that it had something to do with some necromancy circles, including the one named Miranda 12 Circles.

Shirley took a strange glance at the fatty, having no idea of when he arrived, but she also didn’t care.

“It’s safe now. I have to go find my roommate,” Shirley said to Donnie.

After Shirley left, Donnie turned around and found himself staring into a pair of blue eyes.

“What’re you looking at?” Donnie was a bit startled.

The fatty said with a bit of jealousy, “I think the girl likes you…”

“We did not even know each other until an hour ago!” Donnie hurriedly explained.

“That’s right. It only took you an hour… Ummm…” The fatty sighed.

Donnie was a bit pissed but also feeling rather shy. “I didn’t mean it. We’re just classmates!”

The fatty looked away. “You will know her roommates. Don’t forget me.”

Donnie was totally speechless. He didn’t even know the fatty!

“So, both of you are completely inexperienced, right?” said Karl, who had already forgotten about his worries. “I can tell.”

His left arm supported his right arm, and his right hand was rubbing his chin.

“I…” Donnie tried to disagree, but he somehow could not lie.

The fatty was surprised. “How do you know?”

Karl smiled gently and said, “When the girl was thanking Donnie, Donnie was acting like a brand new baby in a relationship. He should’ve asked the girl to buy him lunch so that he could buy it back next time. Back and forth like this, and one day, grabbing the girl’s hand won’t be difficult.”

“Ask the girl to buy him lunch?” the fatty asked sincerely.

Karl said proudly, “For sure! Do not feel afraid to lose your face. My father once told me a story of a farmer waiting beside a tree trunk day after day for a dead rabbit. The result is just like how you imagine it to be. To win love, you have to take the initiative. Are you telling me that you’re going to wait for a girl to run into your arms?”

Donnie felt that it was a beautiful girl in front of him who was lecturing him on how to pursue a girl, and he did not feel very comfortable with it. He hurriedly cut Karl off, “So, you’re… experienced?”

Karl looked up at the sky and said, “Of course!”

He paused a bit when no one said anything, “You want me to show you?”

The fatty nodded excitedly, but they were stopped by the fatty. “No, no. An accident just happened. We’d better behave ourselves before a decision is made on this.”

“Yeah…” Karl looked upset again, as he lowered his head.

The fatty also recalled his mission. “I’ll send out the news report first, and we’ll continue after going back to the dorm…”

“Which dorm are you in? What’s your name?” Donnie asked confusedly.

The fatty did not know what to say.

Finally, he released a loud sigh. “Never mind… Before this problem is solved, I won’t have a chance…”

……

In the Allyn magic tower in the City in the Sky.

Heidi looked pretty much the same as twenty years ago. She still had the same round face, a few freckles, and long, linen-color hair. The only difference was that she was now wearing an eight-star arcana badge and a ninth-circle magic badge. Also, she was wearing a few dazzling rings. There was one from the Holm Crown Prize and one from Evans Prize in Arcana. She found or made the rest of the rings herself.

“Madam, today’s Allyn Impression is available. You want to have a look?”

It was the ring on her left little finger that talked.

Heidi sipped her black tea and said, “Sure.”

The ring then lit up with red light, and a light beam projected an illusionary pile of newspaper in front of Heidi.

Heidi held the teacup with her left hand and touched the light screen to turn the pages with her right hand.

When Heidi saw the title, “Horrible! The Most Severe Accident in Twenty-One Years; Pain! Consequences of Heidler College’s Negligence”, she was amused and quickly turned to the corresponding page.

After reading the news, she was laughing too hard to sit up straight.

Fortunately, she had always been developing Lu Xiaoxi’s interest in body structure and genetics on purpose, or Lu Xiaoxi would now be studying at the Atom Institution. Her teacher should be thankful because of it!

……

In the main magic tower of Heidler Magic College.

Schokola, the president, picked up a gold speaker and said in the typical cold and hoarse voice of a lich, “We’ve decided to discontinue Brades’ study in the college. He brings dangers to other students.”

The calm and serious male voice came out of the speaker, “I do not agree.”

Schokola paused a bit and said, “This is the most terrible accident ever since the establishment of the college.”

The male voice remained the same tone as he said, “Before this, didn’t I ever tell you all about Brades’ situation? Didn’t I ever tell you all that a senior-rank sorcerer must be there to supervise him?”

“But they were in a senior-rank magic tower,” Schokola explained.

“It’s your problem,” said the male voice.

“So you’re showing your attitude?” Schokola’s voice became even colder. As an archmage, he felt very disrespected by the young man in the speaker.

The male voice sounded a bit amused, but it then became serious again. “Yes, this is my attitude. Of course, I’ll be responsible for the college’s loss. But it is impossible if you want to expel Brades.”

“I’ll do a quote list,” Schokola said. He had to stop insisting. After all, the man in the speaker had made his compromise.

“Alright. Send the list to Brades,” said the male voice, which sounded slightly annoyed.

……

“This much?!” Karl looked at the list and almost burst out into tears.

Schokola said gloomily, “Yes, you pay or you leave. Up to you. Of course, your elder brother will pay for it first. He asked me to tell you that the money will come from your own treasury from your future fiefs. This is the first step to grow up, and it’s called ‘take your responsibility’.”

Karl’s voice trembled as he said, “I… I’ll pay…”

Karl kept his head very low as he walked back to his dorm, as if the world was going to collapse. He went directly to bed without saying anything, which made Donnie and Sammy quite unused to it.

But they were also glad that the college was not kicking Karl out.

“Get some sleep. We have Mr. Felipe’s open class tomorrow,” Donnie said excitedly to Sammy.

Sammy nodded. Recently, he was getting more and more dispirited.

……

Dark red eyes, the air of death…

Donnie sprang up in his bed and gasped very hard. It was this nightmare again!

Suddenly, he felt something not right. He turned to look at the window, and he saw Sammy standing there with his eyes tightly closed. The specter behind his back had completely overlapped with his body.

Sammy started walking out in a creepy manner.

Donnie was about to stop him, but his mouth was suddenly covered.

“Don’t wake him up, or Sammy’s soul will perhaps disappear forever. Let’s go and follow him,” Karl said in a very low voice.

Donnie was startled, but he could tell from Karl’s voice that he was excited.
