Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 361 - The Memory Crystal



Arthur knew he couldn't delay or do anything suspicious in front of all those strong people. So he went up ahead and put both of his arms on the crystal.

A strange feeling started to assault him, making him feel quite dizzy.

He felt the same as when the giant eyes of the masters of bronzed giants glanced at him; absolutely naked with nothing inside to hide!

As for others, they didn't feel what he felt, yet they were all glancing at the crystal, with much curiosity in their eyes.

"If he says the truth, then this assessment will be extraordinary!" Mr. E said, not directing his words to anyone in particular.

"Humph, as if a mere disciple candidate in his age coming from nowhere can do one tenth of what he claimed!" and the elder was already on bad terms with Arthur, directly standing to the opposite side of his.

"Don't judge early, Mr. B," Lady U said, while adding, "he might have done one hundredth only of what he said."

"Hahaha, true, you are absolutely true, hahaha."

The two laughed on the silly joke they cracked, but none shared their laughs. For Amanda and Cesile, Arthur was someone who kept doing surprises one after another. They trusted him, and even if he claimed an impossible claim; they chose to believe him.

The other three with them shared the general belief as the two. After all everyone saw what Arthur did in the first part of the assessment.

"Don't underestimate him," and Mr. E had more faith in Amanda and Cesile than those two, "he might prove you two wrong."

"Nonsense!" Mr. B shouted, "he can't be this outstanding or else reports would come delivering his news!"

"The reports that said before this world is a new world to inhabit and safe to be used in testing the kids?" it was Cesile who commented with a mocking tone.

"Don't you trust the supreme council's assessments?" Lady U coldly said.

"I can't find myself trusting the reports regarding this trial at all," and Amanda stepped to stand beside Cesile in clear words, "these reports were flawed from the start, and I advise the elders to start a wide investigation and find the culprit behind this… mistake."

She wanted to say shame or felony, yet she paused before choosing a milder form of expression. She was strong and her stance in the academy was unshaken, but she wasn't the only one here enjoying such treatment.

And most important than all; her future disciple shouldn't live under the threat of the supreme council. She wouldn't stay inside the academy all the time, and she didn't want to venture on a mission and return to find him killed by them.

"I will personally see this issue investigated thoroughly," and Mr. E's words were the final decision in this matter.

After which no one spoke again, while glancing over the crystal waiting for the assessment.

"Didn't it take a slightly longer time than usual?" Cesile said after the passage of half an hour without showing any response.

"Or the evaluation was zero and the kid is just feigning being tested," Mr. B sneered before shouting out loud, "hey you, stop acting and come down. We already know how great you did down there, hahaha."

He was in a good mood, while Amanda exchanged glances with Cesile. Both seemed to be much closer than ever after Arthur appeared in the picture.

"If the evaluation was a failure, the crystal will inform us about it," and Mr. E had to step in again before this escalated to another debate. "He is still testing, let's wait and see."

"Tsk," Mr. B sneered and said nothing. He knew this fact for sure, yet he was trying to tease the two kids playing mighty and authoritative, supporting a new disciple he wouldn't put in his eyes!

As for Arthur, he was still feeling dizzy, not knowing how much time passed. Yet after an hour and a half, he finally felt his mind returning to work normally and he staggered a few steps to the back before stabilizing himself.

Yet just before he could adapt and analyze what he just experienced, the crystal in front of him started to shine.

"Is it… alright?" Arthur asked as he stepped more distance to the back, joining up the group of the heads of the academy.

"It's starting to show up your evaluation," Amanda was the first to speak before Cesile added, "you took much longer than usual."

"Yet not the longest in our academy history," and Mr. B didn't let this opportunity slip off his fingers, "the highest record ever belonged to the legendary supreme council head, my great grandfather!"

"We all know that, Mr. B," and Mr. E said, trying to stop any more quarrel, "the moment of truth is coming up and this kid evaluation will be revealed."

"Humph, he is just an arrogant weak kid! If he had such talent, then he would have been discovered long ago by our scouts," and Lady U said, also trying to belittle Arthur.

"Scouts aren't gods and many examples proved that in our history!" yet Cesile didn't accept these words and stepped forward to defend her disciple.

"Rare occasions, my dear, they are extremely rare occasions," yet Lady U wasn't fazed as she said, in a tone of a mentor trying to correct her disciple's foolish mistake.

"We'll see," Mr. E said again, "the first color ended and the next one is appearing," he added as the white flashing color of the crystal changed into a second one.

"What are these colors?" Arthur stood on the side silently watching all this debate while not knowing where to laugh or cry. He just wanted to prove his ability and achievements, yet he didn't want to create enemies.

Except those already working for the dark clans. "Are you working for them?" he muttered to himself, eyeing the two elders with doubt.

"The crystal explores your memories, and as we asked it to assess the trial; it will only care for any memories about the trial," Amanda calmly replied, "the evaluation is stripped according to colors, and the more colors you get the higher your evaluation would be."

"And the grade you will be when joining the academy. The white color is nothing, as the starting grade for us begins with green," Cesile added, while the crystal showed faint green light.

"The colors aren't everything," yet Mr. B didn't let the three exchange happy words and didn't try to ruin the atmosphere, "the most important is the luster and density of the final color you will achieve. See this one you scored," he pointed towards the crystal, "this is faint green, meaning you didn't do well in this trial, not as well as you claimed."

"That's true if it's the final color!" Cesile tried to control herself when replying to these hidden insults.

"It's," and Mr.. B kept harassing her.
