" I just need to confirm one thing, did you say something about me to that guy?" Derek asked." Not me, why would I say something?" asked Merilda " by the way, what do you think I said to him?"Derek asked her to forget about it, the fact was that the young boy seemed to know his past, something that few within this academy would know, intricate with that Derek was investigating as much as he could, after all Angelo Huo had challenged him to a duel." You have no reason to accept it, do you?" Merilda said next to her " it's not like duels are mandatory." It's a good way to improve your skills, apart from that it's boring to spend the whole year without a practice isn't it?" he justified " but I'm still deciding, I just need to give an answer one day before." Angelo Huo, what a mysterious man " said Merilda thoughtfully " he arrived at the beginning of the year like everyone else, but only now he seems to be showing himself around." Maybe he was getting ready, the bullies I knew a

Lightning flew acIsaak the arena making a loud hiss, a beam of light cIsaaked the arena to take position in another corner, arcane words appeared in the air as mages cast their spells.This was another duel in the academy arena, a week after Angelo and Derek had their fight another one was already taking place in the same place, once again Angelo was the protagonist of the fight, but his opponent was someone else, someone who was managing to press him to the maximum and make everyone believe in their defeat." I can't believe it, Angelo is really losing... " said an incredulous student." Merilda was that strong?" I had no idea " said another watching everything in the same state." Damn it, I'm going to lose the bet again!" complained another frustrated.What was happening in the arena was really unexpected, Angelo panting and kneeling on the ground while Merilda was very well and ready to attack him, a luminous aura coated her body while several white spheres floated around her like

" Look, there are more people arriving " said a guy looking at the portal open.This man, as well as many others, saw the portal open and more people pass through it, this time 25 men and women arrived through the magical passage that closed afterwards.With that more than 100 people were gathered in the place, an abandoned temple on top of a mountain, normally magic portals are not so accurate to hit the target, but two marking stakes were planted in the place, the caster only needed to point the magic in that direction and the stakes would do the rest, even so the dimensional mage needed to be of high level to reach such a far away location." Did you also accept the offer?" asked a woman who had just arrived." It is not obvious?" 100,000 Eris each is an incredible offer!" said the mercenary " and look at how many people are already here, whoever is promoting this must be a billionaire!""

"We're back," announced Derek, opening the dungeon door.As soon as he opened the door, Napilla ran in and jumped into Onyx's arms, the demon welcomed her as she always did with a smile that seemed almost motherly, but Derek found it strange when he was in a good mood, as it usually means someone was going to get hurt. ." Did you have fun my puppy?" Onyx asked." Too much!" I got on a horse, swam in a lake and took a hot bath " she reported excitedly " ​​and I also stayed with the master, it was really cool!"" She also destroyed a ball, hit it too hard and hit Ashera in the face " said Derek " she was unconscious for two hours.Napilla laughed like it was the funniest thing in the world, but there Derek scolded her a lot saying that she needed to control her strength, besides it wasn't nice to cause pain to others, he just thought she didn't understand that part yet." Here for you " said Derek putting something on the table " Merilda sent it to you." For me?" How kind of her " sai

The throne room was not full, but the people present were of the highest status possible, a large red carpet extended to the carpet that ended at the steps of the throne, standing next to these steps was the royal guardian named Stephenand his wife Trixs.Sitting on his majestic throne was Emperor Shidic, to his left was his wife Marylwho was extremely happy, she looked at her brother who nodded, and he gave orders for the double door to be opened.The door was opened and a very elegant young man in noble clothes walked imposingly, his main distinctive physical feature was his red hair that almost glowed, his gaze was fixed towards the throne but he also paid attention to the guardian, if he made a discreet gesture he should stop walking and kneel right there, as long as this gesture was not made it meant that he could continue approaching.As the gesture was not made the boy walked to the maximum distance allowed to approach, which was exactly close to the steps that led to the thron
