Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Chapter 197 Aftermath Of The First Day



A turmoil immediately raised upon the words of the Allier ancestor, forbidden spells weren’t allowed in the academy, the reason is very simple, they tend to have horrible and permanent side effects, regardless of the tournament being discovered using them would mean be instantly expelled.

Then everyone saw that small but still noticeable thread of blood in Gina’s lips and they couldn’t help but think that the Allier ancestor was saying the truth, most of the students in the stands tried to look for another member of the Leeris family among them, but only now noticed there wasn’t any.

So, all the gazes fell on Stella which was calmly judging the current situation, seeing the dubitative gazes of other half emperors on her, Stella got back at Sawyer.

“That is a harsh accusation against my little sister, Allier ancestor, if you are right then everything is okay, but what if you are wrong, how do you plan to compensate for such defamation and also for demanding me to explain a legacy spell of my Leeris family?”.

The atmosphere tensed up, one side had doubts of the result of the match based on the usage of a forbidden spell, while the other affirmed it was a legacy spell which practically meant they would not openly explain how it worked.

Sawyer Allier frowned, a mere mage lord young girl was talking to him in such a “disrespectful” manner, his lavender eyes glowed as he tried to teach her a little lesson, but just as he was about to shoot mana from his eyes, he felt something sharp and cold pressing against his neck

Sawyer froze on the spot, he slowly turned to see the origin of the blade which was now threatening with cutting his head off, just to see Aura which was sitting in her throne a split of a second ago, now standing next to him with a cold light in her eyes as she pointed her sword at his neck.

“What is the meaning of this Argent matriarch?”, asked Sawyer in a cold voice.

Aura shrugged as she answered.

“I can’t let a guest bully a vice principal of my Wild Claw academy in front of me”., of course this was just an excuse, if Stella wasn’t hired as Daimon’s “bodyguard” for the exploration, she would have also interfered but not so fiercely.

“As for this situation, we’ll discuss it in private with the parties involved, Marshal Parzival can be the mediator”.

Sawyer frowned but feeling the sword in his throat he nodded, falling out with the principal within the territory of the academy wasn’t a wise decision after all, and he was given enough face as the matter will be discussed, so he only nodded before relaxing on his seat again, Aura also kept her sword in her storage ring and returned to her throne.

Gina snorted as she took out the tridents out of Calant’s body making him scream again, she could have simply dispelled them but instead she took them out with force tearing some of his flesh in the process.

And with this the last match of the day ended, the referees went up the platform to avoid any revenge attacks from both of them, but that didn’t stop Calant from poisonously gazing at Gina which was leaving the platform without seeing back as if he didn’t exist.

He got up enduring the pain of his wounds while gritting his teeth, but besides cursing her in his heart, he didn’t do anything and also left leaving a trace of blood where he walked.

The oldest referee then gave the verdict.

“The winner will be decided after some deliberation, all the spectators in the stands please leave, the announcement will be later communicated to all the academy”, this wasn’t the first time something like this happened, so there were already protocols for this.

The spectators all had not convinced expressions, the last match was quite intense, Gina dodged all those metal weapons showing how perfect was her control over her body, also her physical condition seemed to be incredibly high as every time she jumped, she reached about fifteen meters and there aren’t physical boosting spells of ice element.

Only those elements which have propel properties can boost the movements of a mage, wind, fire, lightning and the like, she could have made ice pillars to move upwards, but that wasn’t the case, so her swift movements were all based in her own body, which was praise worthy.

At the skybox of the elite class, Calvin and the others were also discussing about this last match, Liliana specially paid attention to this fight in particular as she is also an ice mage.

“What do you think Daimon, that cutie was rather fierce, do you think she used a forbidden spell?”, asked Calvin as he rubbed his chin.

Daimon shook his head, he also paid some attention to the match and after Gina used her claws to wound herself, there was a huge outburst of mana which he saw thanks to his infinity eyes, others probably thought it was just the activation of the spell which produced those red crystal-like shards, but he knew that wasn’t the case.

Anyway, he couldn’t just tell his classmates about it as he would need to explain about infinity eyes, luckily there was a second thing which many people apparently ignored.

“She would have won anyway, unlike that Allier guy, she didn’t use the item of her chose, whether it was a weapon or not, she did not take it out of her storage ring, which means… she wasn’t giving her all in that fight”.

After seeing all these matches Daimon confirmed what he already knew, there are talented people everywhere, so even with the system victory isn’t granted, luckily, he wasn’t arrogant enough to be complacent with just skills and also trained to master spells and martial arts.

Although in his eyes Alexander was a clown, he didn’t underestimate the whole Jolbaris family because of that, who knows what monsters stayed in the dark until they needed to appear in public after all.

“Speaking of that, Ereman should have finished the task I gave him… I wonder what would your expression be like tomorrow”, thought Daimon as he chuckled.

Back at the area where the half emperors where sitting, Aura stood up from her throne and gazed at the other half emperors and magus kings present before sending a message through her sigil lector.

“Stella you and that girl go to the conference room, three doors after the resting area I already added you to the authorized list”.

At the skybox of the vice principals, Stella read the message and nodded at Aura before she followed her little sister to the resting area.

Aura then looked at Sawyer as she pointed at the resting area.

“Sawyer, Parzival let’s go, the rest of you can stay to hear the result or you can return to your own designated areas”.

The other half emperors with the exception of Kirdun Faresh, weren’t particularly interested in the result of the last match so they immediately left flying towards the academic city.

As for the bull-headed ancestor of the Faresh family he mockingly gazed at Sawyer before he also left, not without thunderously laughing as he shouted.

“I’ll be looking for the good news about your “former” top five-member son who got his ass handed by someone who doesn’t even have the backing of a half emperor hahaha”.

Sawyer gritted his teeth, he ignored Kirdun and then flew towards the resting area followed by the field marshal and Aura.

Once they caught up with Stella and Gina, they all entered the conference room, and the first thing Aura did was taking out a contract from her ring.

“Given the sensible naturality of the subject we will be discussing, you all have to sign this contract, the conditions are easy, if Sawyer Allier is right, Gina Leeris will be expelled from the academy, but if that’s not the case anything discussed here will remain a secret”.

“As for the compensation that will be discussed after we reach a verdict, that being said Sawyer if you are just stirring up problems for nothing and even more importantly wasting my time, the consequences won’t be shallow”.

And so, their conversation started, the people in the skyboxes and those who fought and were now resting, didn’t leave as they had all the comfortabilities they needed, so they instead waited to hear the announcement directly from Aura.

Apparently, the situation was taken care off really fast, because about ten minutes later all the participants along with Sawyer, Stella, Aura and the field marshal returned to the arena.

Aura then flew back to her throne before her image was projected in the watchtower screens which soon spread through the academy, then she amplified her voice with mana as she gave the results of the first day of the tournament.

“The winners of the first four matches are: Arianna Argent, Caleb Allier, Lana Ramir and… Gina Leeris”.

As Aura finished her words, the screen divided in four parts and focused the four winners showing their proud stances to all the people in the academy and the academic city, the screens were big enough so that they could be seen from quite a large distance after all.

Not too much time after the announcement was made, a festive atmosphere filled the campus and the academic city, the families to which the winners belonged immediately started a party in their respective areas, the stores, restaurants and other places became crowded.

But for winners to exist losers are a must, but even then, not all the losers were feeling depressed or at least not all the members of the families to which they belonged, the Faresh ancestor for example was rather happy that the biggest proud of Sawyer was defeated, as for the backer of Wade Risha, it was the clan head Horace which was nowhere to be seen.

As for the patriarch of the Arkuoda family, he was neither depressed nor happy, although their representative lost, it was against someone ranked higher than him and unlike Calant who was pushed out of the top five, he kept his rank in the eyes of others.

To conclude, the true loser of this day was Sawyer Allier, his “nephew” won while his son not only miserably lost, he was now the sixth ranked and he also had to give compensation for causing troubles, so right now his heart was bleeding.

Without saying anything he grabbed Calant and left with an angry expression, in contrast his younger twin Trevor was all smiles as he helped Caleb fly out of the stadium.

Stella thankfully gazed at Aura before she took her younger sister and left, the others also followed their respective relatives out of the stadium, the only exception was Arianna.

Aura smiled happy with the results she showed earlier.

“Come, let’s go meet your new older brother, also I need to check your body just in case”.

“Okay master”, although Arianna felt a bit weird having to call someone younger than her as “older brother”, Daimon is the first disciple while she is the second one, so there is nothing wrong in him being considered the senior despite being younger than her.
